Conservation

Meirek language also known as Tuttot Meirek spoken by Meirek people are an endangered language.[10] The use of the language is decreasing because of intermarriage to other major ethnicities, less modern vocabulary usage and the preference of the youth to speak in modern language such as Sarawak Malay, Kedayan, Malay and English.[2][11]It is estimated that fewer than 5000 active speakers of the language are known to converse in the language on a daily basis.[2]The Jatti Meirek is also facing loss of inherited ancestral land and their ownership because the land status of Native Customary Rights (NCR) was converted into state land status without their knowledge in Pujut area, Miri by the Government of Sarawak in the 80s. These lands are given to developers and plantation companies to be developed into shop lots, housings and palm oil plantations.[12][13] There are efforts to document Tuttot Meirek properly into a dictionary and guidebook, where the pioneering of such effort is the one and only "A Guide to the Meirek Language" (Panduan Bercakap Bahasa Jatti Meirek)[14][15] that is currently in the editorial process for a second edition in a joint efforts by Jatti Meirek Association of Miri, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) and Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP).[16][1]
