| Summary: | This study is on the perception of the Temuan community towards changes in their social-cultural and the economic aspects of their life. Findings showed a mixed result where the Temuans are quite satisfied with the planned housing environment but at the same time they are not very happy with the lack of practice on their culture due to certain constraints. Findings from this study showed that although they claim to be satisfied with their present living conditions, they also felt unhappy with the possibility of the their culture being slowly eroded when the younger generation prefer the modern lifestyle.
