Suku Anak Dalam or Orang Rimba is a name which gave to a group of people who live in the forest area of the National Park of Bukit 12 Jambi, Sumatra. A community of people who live in the jungle area of a little over 50,000 ha is about 1200 people are spread throughout the Park area. They lived by hunting animals that live in the forest and cultivating activities are familiar with plant crops which are normally in the consumption for their survival. The Orang Rimba ('people of the forest') are a much smaller population of people (~3000) who live in the upstream regions of Jambi. They have a unique, diverse economy, which shifts in and out of two base subsistence strategies: swidden farming and a very nomadic life based on foraging wild yams. This is traditionally combined with hunting, trapping, fishing, damming and poisoning rivers, and the collection of forest products for trade. For many, part-time rubber tapping and participation in logging has gradually replaced the collection of forest products.

Orang Rimba life is characterized by small and changing camps, which can be the size of a nuclear family when digging for wild yams, but more commonly is based around an extended family, and can include several extended families whenever swidden farming. Their social relations are very egalitarian, while hierarchies are largely based upon age, gender and knowledge of religion and culture law.
