Temoq people belong to the Proto-Malay[2] of the Orang Asli ethnic group that are found in Pahang, Malaysia.

[3] The Temoq people that are officially recognized are known to settle in two kampungs; on the eastern side of Tasik Bera[4] and on the southern side of Tasik Chini, in between the settlements of the Jakun people and the Semelai people.

[5] The dynamics of the Temoq population are as the following:- Due to their small population, they have been declared extinct several times by the government by simply absorbing them into other neighbouring Orang Asli groups such as the Jakun people in 1974, 1980 and 1996,[6] and with the Semelai people in 2010 for census and administrative purposes.

[8] The Temoq people practice ownership of properties at the individual level.

Their main sources of income include agriculture, fishing and hunting.
