| description | Forest offers many materials and services either directly or indirectly to the societies. For communities who are living near or inside the forest, they are dependent on forest for many aspects of their livelihood. The knowledge on extent of these uses to local community especially indigenous people is still lacking and rarely understood.

Objectives of this study is to determine their income dependency on forest. Data were gathered by using in-depth interview method and questionnaires were distributed randomly to the Temiar people within their community and presented using the detailed statistical analysis.

This study also revealed that a total of 63% respondents were involved in forest resources product collected activities, 7% involved in agriculture, 12% involved in business and 18% involved in farming. Medicinal plants, rattan, bamboo, honey, gaharu and handicraft were among the forest products that were beneficial for their income.
