Saya selalu mengimpikan Sarawak merdeka dari Persekutuan Malaysia dan menjadi Sebuah negara merdeka dan berdaulat. Namun begitu, ini cuma mimpi ngeri sahaja kerana bukannya senang untuk merdeka daripada sesebuah negara yang baru dibentuk. Selatan Sudan telah berjuang berdekad-dekad untuk menuntut kemerdekaan dari persekutuan dan banyak darah telah diitumpahkan. Begitu jua dengan Timur Leste dimana ramai "pemberontak" telah terkorban di tangan Tentera Nasional Indonesia. Banyak lagi peristiwa yang dasyat berlaku dalam proses kemerdekaan sesebuah negara.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Sarawak merupakan negeri terbesar dalam Malaysia dan mempunyai hasil bumi yang sangat banyak. Balak, Minyak dan Gas asli, Arang Batu dan banyak lagi. Namun, Sarawak tetap mundur dan masih diketegorikan sebagai negeri termiskin. Mengapakah ini boleh berlaku dan dimanakah hasil bumi Sarawak?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Kalau dahulu British memperkenalkan sistem ekonomi terbuka dan sistem pelajaran standard Cambridge ke Sarawak. Sarawak membangun dengan pesat walaupun British membawa pulang hasil bumi ke Britian ekoran revolusi Industri (Industrial Revolution). Namun Ratu tidak menabaikan kebajikan rakyat Sarawak. Bandar Kuching terus dimajukan dan menjadi pusat pentadbiran. Miri turut dibangunkan untuk mengali minyak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Selepas Sarawak menyertai Malaysia pada tahun 1963, Sarawak telah jatuh kedalam jajahan baru, iaitu Jajahan Malaya. Apa yang Sarawak nikmati hari ini adalah hasil daripada "kecuaian" pemimpin kita masa pra-suruhanjaya Cobbold. Kita akui bahawa kesultanan Brunei tidak dapat memajukan Sarawak memandangkan Kesultanan Brunei adalah kerajaan yang lemah. Sebab itu Sarawak diserahkan kepada James Brooke dan seterusnya di ambil alih oleh Kerajaan British selepas dinasti Brooke&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Tindakan terburu-buru dalam pempersetujui Suruhanjaya Cobbold  adalah titik tolak memyebabkan Sarawak jatuh ke lembah kehancuran. Selepas 1963, kerajaan persekutuan mengubah semua sistem secara mendadak. Sistem Pelajaran standard Cambridge ditukar kepada sistem pendidikan kebangsaan dan semua sekolah mengguna bahasa penghantar, Bahasa Malaysia. Hasil bumi disalurkan ke Tanah Melayu dan Sarawak mendapat sedikit pulangan daripada sumbangan tersebut. Pemimpin Dayak digulingkan untuk memartabatkan penguasaan etnik Melayu dalam politik negara.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Apakah kesalahan Sarawak sekiranya mereka tidak menyertai persekutun Malaysia? Tiada. Sarawak mungkin akan jatuh ke tangan Indonesia. Itulah sebab Sukaerno mengistiharkan konfrantasi untuk menjadikan Sarawak sebahagian daripada Indonesia raya. Namun, Brunei tidak di apakan-apakan oleh keturunan Suluk walaupun mereka memilih untuk tidak menyertai persekutuan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Menyertai Tanah Melayu bukan sahaja satu kesilapan malah kehancuran kepada Sarawak. Saya amat mencemburui Hong Kong yang begitu maju semasa pemerintahan British. Jajahan British adalah lebih baik daripada Jajahan Malaya. Namum begitu berkerajaan sendiri itu adalah lebih baik.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Hari ini Sarawak terpaksa akur dengan syarat-syarat yang dikenakan oleh Malaya dan terus dipimpin oleh diktator. Walaupun Malaya memperkenalkan sistem raja berpelembagaan, Sarawak tidak bernaung di bawah raja kerana Sarawak bukan tanah orang melayu. Mahu tidak mahu mereka terpaksa akur dengan sistem yang tidak relevan. Sistem demokrasi dan kerajaan yang adil juga tidak dilihat di Sarawak. Diktator terus di kekalkan demi menguatkan kuasa Jajahan Malaya. Sungguhpun rakyat sarawak tidak menyukai diktator, mereka terpaksa akur kerana mereka telah lama hidup miskin dan bergantungan pada ekonomi ala Kesultanan Siam. Kena hantar ufti kalau tak nak negeri di serang askar. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Sebenarnya Sarawak ini sangat elok. Rakyatnya aman damai, Masjid boleh didirikan di tepi Gereja. Hari Jumaat Masjid riuh dan Gereja sunyi. Hari ahad, Gereja pula riuh dan masjid sunyi. Orang Sarawak tidak membakar rumah ibadat agama lain. Gerai Mee babi boleh berada berdekatan gerai mee jawa. Inilah yang dinamakan freedom of choice di Sarawak. Cina tak paksa melayu makan babi dan melayu tak larang cina jual babi. Masing-masing berusaha untuk memperbaiki taraf hidup.Persefahaman yang kukuh itu terhasil daripada pererimaan terbuka semua kaum untuk memahami kehendak pelbagai etnik.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Apakah mungkin Sarawak akan menjadi negara republik? Tiada raja, berkerajaan sendiri dan bebas dari cengkaman jajahan Malaya? Perlukah pertumpahan darah sekira kita menuntut merdeka? Bersediakah Sarawak untuk berkerajaan sendiri dan menghentikan pemerintahan diktator? 48 tahun dalam jajahan Malaya dan 20 tahun dalam pemerintahan diktator cukup menyusahkan rakyat Sarawak yang sepatutnya menikmati hidup yang berkelimpahan dari hasil buminya tanpa diekspoitasi oleh orang lain.</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>Dayak to be kept poor for ease of control</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2011/04/dayak-to-be-kept-poor-for-ease-of.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Mon, 18 Apr 2011 00:19:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-3357340404540085883</guid><description>One of the most effective way to hold power is using divide-and-rule tactics such as being employed wholeheartedly by Yang Dikasihi over the Dayaks here in Sarawak. Exactly the same tactics deployed by the early White Rajahs to control Sarawak in vast area while keep limiting the area of original Brunei sultanate into the present size till today. Yang Dikasihi merely perfecting those tactics now even to the point of Dayaks basically being politically castrated. When my arguements appeared at Dayak Baru scores of Yang Dikasihi goons apparent anger is understandable but expected. Truth hurts don’t they? The following are my arguements: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dayak to be kept poor for ease of control: That’s how the ignorant, ill-informed and brain-dead Dayaks will keep BN relevant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These groups of Dayaks, mostly rural dwellers, constitute 80% of all Dayaks statewide. The reason why state Dayak BN MPs, ADUNs are getting their votes got nothing to do with so-called fantasy politic of development but it just that BN bonking, humping on Dayaks’ sheer ignorance, being ill-informed and being brain-dead stupid of how phony and dopey BN actually for all these 50 years to them and basically just make this to happen: kept these Dayaks poor for ease of control.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The word ‘poor’ meanwhile is multi-dimensional. For Dayak YBs, they first and foremost must in control of all projects as much as possible, greed and self-interest it is. For Dayak civil servants, they rest assured with their livelihood, pensions, easy access for government loans, as long they are staunch ball-carriers for life. The longhouse headmen will be very much happy to accept few fake Martells and will sing like canary to all his minions and goons to just vote BN. And yes, the meager RM10 per vote will do for each Dayak voters. That is how much BN willfully spend by hook or by crook, to keep the Dayaks poor and keep begging for more since their source of cold hard cash is from BN. Democracy after all, has always been ruled by mischief through the highest bidder, a capitalist version of socialism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Laissez faire, the French arse might say, is the basis of both democracy and capitalism. Majority voices formed the bulk of force that gives authority to the highest bidder which means intelligence conscience does not play any role since stupidity after all equates greed and that is the gravest flaw of democracy. It doesn’t regard how genuine the votes are and BN merely amplified the democracy’s boondoggles: vote buying, phantom voters, postal voters, any dubious means possible as stupidity deemed easily affordable sunk cost for BN. No shit but stupidity is a great commodity for BN.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These Dayaks, being poor and helpless is the product of their own backwardness and systematic delaying tactics deployed by govt. Take roads for instance. To comprehensively connect all rural Dayak areas statewide by roads by crossing rivers and cutting through hills and mountains will require Bank Negara to bust. Maybe RM500 billion cost? But no, BN for heaven sake will not spend that for some jungle-lurking animist lunatics. For what? To make them enjoy basic modernity and finally make them realise how stupid for them to vote BN? Ignorance make Dayaks being smokescreen by BN, always hoping for the best that BN will serve them as caring government. Waiting and delaying yet keep voting to get almost nothing. Plain stupid isn’t it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe some will question the rationality of the percentage of these Dayaks derived. But none of you question the rationality of why BN YBs are still getting votes despite delaying the heavens they have promised. 80% is a good number, as long as the Dayak BN YBs’ concentration of majority voters are from these Dayaks they will continue to win despite all the lies, delaying the heavens they’ ve promised.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok, being ill-informed basically an obligatory result from these delaying tactics by BN. Bundled with limited news exposure (no TVs, newspapers and sorry, durian is no Blackberry to get online) to let them duly informed how phony BN actually are. Palm oil is paraded as the greatest fruit ever to grace their life from poverty. As much as corn being mandated by US congressmen as the patriotic weed for Mid-West American farmers so as to tell the Arab sheikhs that mandating corn biofuels production anytime outlast their oil gone for good, only to make more people hungry worldwide resulting riots in places like Haiti so bad even zombies facing food shortages for voodoo rituals.Being ill-informed of how speculative, volatile palm oil prices in nature yet these Dayaks are being duped into the Swisscash-Walton combined equivalent scheme. You will not see much money and your NCR lands either. So how does that Martel taste huh? Fake, good spirits like Sahip or Benson, no?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Being unable to identify fake Martel to a Benson liquor brand summed up the intelligence level of these Dayaks. Almost self-explanatory. When you are poor, you tend to beg for mercy and derail your logic judgment therefore leading you into the brink of ignorance and close-mindedness. Enter the total abyss of sanity, blackholed into the state of brain-dead. Dayaks can only obey BN in the end, after being kept poor for ease of control.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How the Sarawak opposition can at least subdue these Dayaks:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- use same monotonous colour on their logos (dark blue and white), as close to BN logo. Remember that Martel-Benson differential tips? Right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- urge the Dayaks to keep BN money and vote for them instead. You can only ask for more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- project palm oil as ridiculously dopey as durian: highly seasoned in price, useless in abundance and outright NCR land daylight burglary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- slogan: “Your vote reflects your stupidity” kind of themes. “Nobody can cheat you if you’re not stupid”or “Palm oil is donkey’s favourite kuih jala” is ok also.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- instead of writing “X” of voting paper, ask the Dayaks use “tick sign” instead. It’s a sign of approval while “X” is a sign of hatred so they always write “tick sign” on BN vote. Spoilt votes you might say but hey, they can’t tell Martell from Benson right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Being ignorant, ill-informed, brain-dead stupid is definitely a big advantage for BN, not for Dayaks. BN has been using and abusing Dayaks’ low-intelligence to their gains that now for opposition to do is doing some of it but in more opposingly chaotic, effectively timely, efficient manners. Jokes aside, which party being relevant is highly dependent on how well you can keep Dayak voters’ intelligence at low level, thus making them poor enough to gain control on them.</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>Tranformasi Kerajaan Sarawak</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2011/04/tranformasi-kerajaan-sarawak.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Fri, 15 Apr 2011 10:29:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-8466588353017647544</guid><description>Pada tanggal 16.4.2011 akan bakal mencatat sejarah negeri Sarawak, mungkin berlakunya perubahan pentadbiran kerajaan yang korup yang dikenali sebagai tranformasi kerajaan Sarawak....&lt;br /&gt;

Pangkah Orang Lama keluar dari ADUN Sarawak.  Awang Tengah sekali kasi tendang sama dia. Jangan kita hari ini cakap  macam ini tapi esok cakap lain pulak. Sedang kita memangkah kertas undi  ingatkan diri sendiri tentang satu perkara penting: 30, 40, 50 tahun dah  awak pangkah lambang yang sama tapi setiap tahun nasib orang kampung  awak masih tidak terbela; makin celaka ada lah pulak. Apa kata awak  pangkah lambang ayam, atau roket atau cacing pulak? Lepas tu kita tengok  apa akan jadi. Kalau masih tak ada perubahan, kita berbalik kepada  lambang Dacing Taib Mahmud. Bukan kita hendak lupakan dia sekaligus,  tak, kita cuma nak try cuba uji testing sesuatu yang tak biasa kita  buat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;BECAUSE,  tuan-tuan dan puan-puan, selagi gang Taib mendapat majoriti besar  selagi itu lah Taib tak akan berundur dari ofis Kepala Menteri Sarawak.  Dia tak akan tewas di Kerusi Balingian. Sampai bila-bila pun dia tak  akan tewas. Tetapi satu perkara kita boleh buat – jatuhkan orang-orang  dia di kerusi masing-masing. Gagalkan dominasi dua-pertiga atau  tiga-perempat. Kesurutan majoriti dalam bentuk ini akan memberikan  tamparan hebat kepada dia. Rasa hormat Najib dan BN Malaya pada dia pun  akan surut, dan ini sekaligus akan memberikan sense of kesurutan kepada  dia… dan dia pun akan surut dengan sendiri nya dari politik Sarawak yang  kian menyurut. Minta maaflah kepada YB-YB Taib yang akan kita gulingkan  semasa pilihanraya nanti. Kita bukan nak kenakan budak-budak tu, kita  nak akhirkan zaman pemerintahan bapak budak tu. Percaya lah, ini lah  satu taktik yang terbaik yang kita boleh fikirkan setakat ini. Kalau nak  harapkan Baru Bian bertanding satu-lawan-satu dengan Taib, atau Anwar  Ibrahim sekali bertanding melawan Taib, tak akan gugur Tok Uban di Bumi  Kenyalang. Semakin bertambah ramai pulak bini dia nanti.&lt;/span&gt;</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">2</thr:total></item><item><title>SNAP Apa Kes?</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2011/03/snap-apa-kes.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Sun, 27 Mar 2011 01:08:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-6229586518836285676</guid><description>Dua hari lepas, Sarawak Report melaporkan ujud rundingan antara SNAP  dengan BN Pusat. Entah betul entah tidak, kita tak tau tapi apa yang  dilaporkan memang nampak logik. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SNAP yang dah hampir nak berkubur setelah digantung pada 2002&amp;nbsp; tiba-tiba  boleh jadi sangat kuat. Macamana dari minta hanya 3 kerusi untuk  bertanding pada tahun lepas, bertambah kepada 10 kerusi kemudian  bertambah lagi kepada 28 kerusi dan akhirnya nak bertanding 40 kerusi.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yang lebih mencurigakan, SNAP boleh jadi mewah secara tiba-tiba. Katanya  hampir semua bakal calom PKR termasu Baru Bian ditawar menyertai SNAP  dengan tawaran insentif sehingga RM500,000 seorang.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Edwin Dundang, Presiden SNAP pulak katanya tiba-tiba jadi kaya-raya,  boleh bawa  trak pick-up Toyota Hilux mewah dan menjanjikan calon yang  berprospek sebanyak RM300,000 untuk bertanding di kawasan masing-masing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="" name="more"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sarawak Report dapat maklumat yang semua tu dari  sumber BN pusat.  Katanya strategi BN pusat adalah untuk mengecilkan  kekuatan pembangkang  di Sarawak dan dalam masa yang sama jugak tengah  buat plan untuk  menumbangkan Taib Mahmud yang dah jadi liabiliti kepada  BN.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kalau betul laporan Sarawak report tu, memang SANP boleh dianggap  pengkhianat rakyat Sarawak. Laporan penuh Sarawak Report tu boleh di  baca &lt;a href="http://www.sarawakreport.org/ms/2011/03/rundingan-snap-dengan-bn/"&gt;di sini&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Walau bagaimanapun, SNAP menafikan perkara tu. Malaysiakini melaporkan:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Parti  Nasional Sarawak (SNAP) menyifatkan laporan blog  Sarawak Report yang  mendakwa wujudnya perjanjian sulit antara parti itu  dengan BN di Kuala  Lumpur sebagai satu cerita rekaan yang paling  teruk.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sebaliknya, tegas setiausaha agung SNAP, Stanley Jugol (kiri), kebenarannya &lt;br /&gt;
ialah tidak pernah ada sebarang perjanjian antara SNAP dan BN.&lt;br /&gt;
Di  samping itu, katanya, juga tidak pernah ada sebarang pertemuan  antara  ketua penerangan Umno, Datuk Ahmad Mazlan dengan pemimpin atau  wakil  SNAP baru-baru ini.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Ataupun terdapat sebarang perjumpaan dengan mana-mana wakil BN untuk berunding," kata Stanley dalam satu kenyataan hari ini. - &lt;a href="http://update4.malaysiakini.com/news/159603"&gt;Mkini&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;Malaysiakini   jugak melaporkan MCLM yang satu ketika dulu ada buat kerjasama dengan   SNAP dah ambil keputusan untuk putuskan hubungan dengan SNAP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malaysiakini melaporkan: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Pergerakan Masyarakat Sivil Malaysia (MCLM) mengambil   keputusan memutuskan perhubungannya dengan Parti Nasional Sarawak   (Snap) dengan mendakwa mereka “curiga” berhubung akriviti terbaru parti   yang dihidupkan semula itu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Objektif utama kerjasama  dengan Snap, kata presiden MCLM, Haris Ibrahim  adalah bagi menangani  masalah masyarakat terpinggir di Sarawak dengan  usaha menamatkan  pemerintahan 30 tahun Ketua Menteri, Tan Sri Taib  Mahmud.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Tujuan  kami adalah bagi menubuhkan sebuah kerajaan pro-rakyat,” kata  Haris  sambil menambah MCLM sejak beberapa hari kebelakangan ini  mendapat  maklumat bahawa calon Snap dan beberapa pemimpinnya secara  tiba-tiba  mendapat dana yang besar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Kami dimaklumkan bahawa dana  itu diperolehi dari Kuala Lumpur atas  arahan daripadan BN,” kata Haris  pada sidang media di Kuala Lumpur hari  ini.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Tiada bukti konklusif tetapi dalam situasi seperti ini, anda jarang mendapat bukti hitam putih,” katanya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jika maklumat itu benar, menurut Haris, ia satu pengkhianatan paling teruk kepada rakyat yang telah ditekan selama 30 tahun. - &lt;a href="http://update4.malaysiakini.com/news/159650"&gt;Mkini&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;Memang  tak mustahil apa yang didakwa Sarawak Report tu betul walaupun SNAP  menafikannya. Lagipun, ramai yang kata stail orang  politik di Sarawak  memang macam tu,&amp;nbsp; memang kebanyakkannya lebih  berminat kepada duit.  Lagipun, memang kebanyakkannya pernah bersama  dalam BN, bersama-sama  memerintah Sarawak dan dalam masa yang sama  bersama-sama Taib Mahmud  songlap harta rakyat Sarawak. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tapi, kalau pun betul apa yang Sarawak Report laporkan tu, aku masih  tetap rasa PKR tak patut tamak di Sarawak. Aku tetap rasa PKR patut  berlembut dengan tuntutan SNAP.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
Dalam politik, betul atau salah bukan penentu  kemenangan tapi tapi  kemenangan lebih bergantung kepada persepsi.  Macamana mengujudkan  persepsi yang akan diterima oleh pengundi.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kalau  pengundi dah yakin untuk mengundi satu-satu parti atau seseorang  calon,  buat la apa pun, memang payah depa nak berubah kecuali kalau  main duit  beli undi walaupun memang tak semua orang boleh dibeli. Tapi,  sebenarnya, tak perlu pun beli semua pengundi untuk menang.&lt;div style="background-color: transparent; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Dengan revolusi  reformisnya,dasar-dasar ekonominya jelas dan terang tanpa berbelah  bahagi,tanpa mengikut Marxis,Stalinis atau Troykis,Olof Palme tetap  dengan garis panduan sosialis demi kemakmuran negara Sweden.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ingin  sekali saya menyentuh tentang kerelevanan sosialis dengan situasi  ekonomi dunia pada masa kini,Olof Palme jelas sekali mengagih-agihkan  kekayaan negara Sweden kepada rakyat,kerana rakyat yang paling berhak  menikmati kehidupan yang selesa,bukannya segelintir golongan komprador  lintah penghisap darah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Situasi ekonomi yang ada pada hari ini  adalah kerana budaya kita yang "biar papa asal bergaya",dan melupakan  fungsi asal barang-barang yang kita miliki.Kita prefer makan di restoran  mewah,dengan seketul daging kecil,dihias dengan warna-warna kerana  kelihatan "presentative",sehingga kita sanggup membayar harga yang  tinggi untuk secebis daging itu.Hotel-hotel diberi gred  bintang,sedangkan fungsi asal hotel itu untuk tempat beristirehat,bukan  untuk menunjuk-nunjuk kemewahan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saya sedikit pun tidak ada rasa  belas kasihan kepada golongan pemilik banglo mewah di Bukit  Antarabangsa,sedikit pun tidak.Niat asal mereka membina rumah-rumah di  atas bukit-bukit jelas mahu menunjukkan kemewahan mereka,empayar kecil  mereka,bahawa mereka seolah-olah memiliki harta-harta Tuhan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hari  ini saya melihat ramai masyarakat kita membeli kasut hanya kerana  jenama bukan kerana fungsi.Fungsi asalnya untuk melapik kaki kita dari  tanah,bukan untuk menunjuk-nunjuk.Semahal mana kasut itu pun,tempatnya  di tanah.Letak la I-pod,pelapik sejuk dan kontur kaki,akhirnya secebis  getah itu akan dibuang dan dibeli baru.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Masalah ekonomi ini  berlaku kerana kita gemar indulge diri kita dengan kemewahan.Kita tidak  pernah berfikir tentang 30 peratus warga Afrika tidak ada sepatu sedang  kita membeli kasut Nike.Kita tidak pernah terfikir setiap hari  kanak-kanak mati kelaparan kerana malnutrisi sedang kita menikmati  makanan mewah di hotel-hotel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Olof Palme sanggup mengembara di  negara-negara dunia ketiga,melihat kemiskinan dan kesengsaraan dengan  mata sendiri,bagaimana kaum komprador membuli rakyatnya sendiri,diatas  itu sekelompok kelompok kapitalis yang mahu memperkayakan diri mereka  yang sedia kaya.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Olof Palme mungkin tidak sepopular Che  Guevara,Castro,atau golongan revolusioner yang berjuang demi golongan  marhein.Mungkin di kalangan sosialistas Olof Palme tidak begitu  dikenali.Tetapi beliau adalah orang pertama yang meletakkan tapak  sosialis di Eropah Barat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hari ini PM Britain Gordon Brown  mengarahkan Bank of England(BOE) menurunkan kadar faedah kepada 3.5  mata,manakala Fed di Amerika sehingga 0 mata.Sosialis bakal sekali lagi  berdiri gah.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hari ini ada bunyi-bunyi pelbagai sistem  ekonomi.Sistem ekonomi Islam,sistem ekonomi  bersepadu,macam-macam.Namakan apa sekalipun,dolar,ringgit,rupiah atau  dinar emas sekalipun,motifnya hanya keuntungan dan keuntungan akan terus  indulge diri kita sehingga kita lupa diri.Itu yang berlaku kepada  khalifah Abd-ar-Rahman yang membazirkan dinar emas rakyat kepada kota  Medina Az-Zahra untuk gundiknya yang tercinta.Kita selalu dialun-alunkan  oleh pak imam,sheikh,dan sebagainya tentang sistem ekonomi Islam tetapi  kepincangannya tidak pernah dibincang.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ada rakan saya berkata  dalam sistem ekonomi Islam tidak ada cukai,1/5 dari hasil bumi adalah  percuma,dan sebagainya.Jika tiada cukai,bagaimana ingin membiayai  kebajikan rakyat sedangkan kerajaan tidak ada wang?Bagaimana ingin  mentadbir kalau urus tadbir birokrat tidak ada wang?Dari  mana?Zakat?Zakat untuk fakir miskin.1/5 dari hasil bumi adalah  percuma,bagaimana jika negara itu tiada hasil bumi?Kita ada beberapa  negara,Singapura,Monaco,bahkan sebuah negara Islam Maldives pun tidak  ada hasil bumi.Bagaimana?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Retorik-retorik oleh pak sheikh ini,bak  kata Ezreen "seperti pakcik pakai kopiah suka cakap kuat-kuat" ini  sebenarnya mahu dana kewangan negara terus disalurkan kepada  mereka,dalam bahasa yang lebih kurang ajar tapi mudah difahami,"membeli  kuasa dengan agama,untuk wang dan keuntungan".Jika tidak,bagaimana  kerajaan Islam Pas Kedah tidak sanggup menolak projek khinzir di Bukit  Silambau?Atau terus merosakkan muka bumi Kedah dengan memotong  pokok-pokok hutan di kawasan Ulu Sungai Muda,di kawasan tadahan air.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dalam  sosialisme harta bumi ialah harta rakyat.Tidak ada percentage 1/5 atau  sebagainya.Cukai dikenakan ke atas golongan kaya,supaya dapat diagihkan  sama rata.Bukan kerana mahu memupuk sifat kemalasan,tetapi mahu  membentuk sifat bantu-membantu di kalangan masyarakat.Sosialisme tidak  menentang perniagaan,tetapi menentang sifat tamak.Tidak kira apa sekali  matawang itu,tamak itu akan terus ada,termasuk dinar emas.Dan ia hanya  akan menampan inflasi,selebihnya akan berlaku defisit dalam wang  rakyat,kerana si tamak haloba sudah habis mengikis emas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ada yang berkata Pas dari dulu hingga kini komited dengan Islam,tetapi bila sudah dapat kerajaan Kedah,apa sudah jadi?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Olof  Palme bukan beragama Islam,tetapi jika beliau mahu lakukan  sesuatu,beliau akan wujudkan referendum kepada rakyat Sweden,sama ada  setuju atau tidak.Hak dikembali kepada rakyat,tanpa soal.Tapi Azizan  Abdul Razak?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Walaupun bukan beragama Islam,contohilah sifat amanah Perdana Menteri Sweden ini,Olof Palme.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pada  saat kematiannya,beliau hanya mati di pangkuan isterinya,kerana tidak  mengupah sekuriti melindunginya.Beliau sosialistas yang berani  berhadapan dengan bahaya.Itu baru pemimpin namanya.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Dato‘ Ustazah Siti Nor Bahyah bte Mahmood has asked Muslims to refrain from celebrating Valentine’s Day, urging them not to emulate the vices of Christians.&lt;br /&gt;
Ustazah Siti, 47, had made the remark during an Islamic educational program aired on TV9, which is owned by the UMNO linked media conglomerate Media Prima. In the clip, Siti claimed that it was the Christians who normally indulged in vice, such as frequenting discos and dating.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the way, which Malaysian race has the most dumping of babies by un-wed mums, “mat rempits” and drug addicts belong to which religion?&lt;br /&gt;
She should focus and offer more solutions on these social problems above rather than trying to imply that Christians go dark corners and have “sex” on Valentine Day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wonder how would she feel if we, Christians and/or Non-Muslim, started saying every “Malam Jumaat” is a compulsory “sex” day for all Muslims? In today’s world we need tolerance. “Tolerance” is an important trait that a lot of people don’t have, but need.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you really think that Christianity is “agama sundal” or a “pariah religion”? Or do you really think that being a Christian, we are all “dirt sinners” or “pagan” or “unbeliever”? Or do you think being a Christian, we are “enemies” of God/Allah? If so, I forgive you truly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Psalm 51:5 – “Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me”. &lt;br /&gt;
1 John 3:4 – “Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness”.&lt;br /&gt;
Matthew 18:3 – “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven”.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By Celebrating Valentine’s Day “Maruah Tergadai?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Selalunya buat maksiat, pergi disko… bercouple-couple, bersunyi-sunyian, ini adalah tradisi bagi masyarakat yang beragama Kristian bukan agama Islam…,” she had said.&lt;br /&gt;
“Dan apa yang berlaku disebailk mawar rose ini akhirnya hanya dengan harga RM12 sekumtum….hanya dengan harga yang mungkin RM100 secampak bunga rose dihadiahkan oleh seorang boy friend…kekasih dan sebagainya maruah tergadai….,” she added.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What would You see, if your husband gave you those roses; will your “maruah tergadai”? Or is it ‘Haram’ for all Muslims to display “roses” during a wedding day and/or other fiesta? Is “Rose” a symbol of Valentine Day or it’s just a flower symbolizing a honor of Love OR “Sex”? Why blame “Valentine Day” if someone abuse it and commit sin for illicit sex?&lt;br /&gt;
A video-clip of the program, posted on YouTube, had sparked off a raging debate; please view here: Valentine Supporting Christianity &amp;amp; English?&lt;br /&gt;
Although the program was posted about a year ago, it is only now the video clip is being widely circulated and posted in numerous blogs. The video, which had been viewed more than 100,000 times, also had the Ustazah warning Muslims that celebrating Valentine’s Day would mean “supporting Christianity and the English”.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is Valentine Day?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Valentine Day or St. Valentine Day, remember that you are loved. God loves you and wants you to be His valentine. The love that God gives us is not like the world’s love.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Valentine’s Day (V-Day) is no longer part of the official liturgical calendar of any Christian church; it was dropped from the Catholic calendar in 1969. It’s not a feast, a celebration, or a memorial of any martyrs and it was never written in the Holy Bible.&lt;br /&gt;
Today it’s more like a pagan-like tradition and commercialized elements honoring “Lover’s Day” just like “Mother’s Day”, “Father’s Day” and Children’s Day, to signify appreciation of loved ones.&lt;br /&gt;
To celebrate V-Day or not is entirely up to each individual. Furthermore, Valentine’s Day has long since been capitalized upon by marketers as a commercial opportunity for themselves, and not one that is promulgated by Christianity. It is universally celebrated secularly.&lt;br /&gt;
The world’s love is only as sturdy as a paper Valentine’s card. But God’s love is not a flimsy, cheap imitation: it is the real thing. It is an all-giving love that was and is willing to suffer and die for our deliverance.&lt;br /&gt;
Will you be God’s valentine? It is your choice. Say yes and give to God the love He desires. And when you do, remember the first Valentine and how he gave everything, including his life, to the God he loved.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Valentine’s Day promotes “Love” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Valentine’s Day does not promote “illicit sex” or “free sex” or “sex for hire” or “sex for sale” as has been interpreted. Isn’t Love what we need today?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Showing some expression and appreciation of Love in the open is much healthier than that done behind closed doors and illicitly. Why are babies being dumped? Because the babies have been conceived illicitly and you know who has been doing this? Your guess is as good as mine!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please be more prudent when revealing statements. Islam says a Man can practice polygamy but do Muslim Women sincerely accept this with openness and determination. Ustazah fails to acknowledge and understand the meaning of Valentine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ustazah Siti is most probably in a lost world unable to deter the brutal act of terrorism currently in certain states; using the name of Islam to execute innocent even during a funeral or any other gathering. By the way there is no Religion and/or Kings or Man on Earth as exclusive and superior than our Almighty God!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But a good knowledgeable teacher will never under mind any religion for I believe religion means GOD to me and each act and purpose is done by their own where GOD forbidden man to do evil. Ustazah Siti you got to Change for the sake of Love, Peace and Righteousness of 1Malaysia!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The amount of sedition&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Malaysian Consultative Council of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism and Taoism (MCCBCHST) President Thomas Philips said no religion should be belittled due to a lack of understanding. Article 5 and Article 11 of the Federal Constitution, which guarantee liberty of person and freedom of religion, should be respected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“We should not belittle any religion just because we don’t understand it. Her comments were not in context as she wrongly understood that Valentine’s Day was a Christian festival,” said Thomas Philips.&lt;br /&gt;
“I believe we as a society are all matured and we know what’s wrong and what’s right. Christians know what’s right and wrong too. &lt;br /&gt;
“Valentine’s Day is a day where people express their Love, I don’t see what’s wrong with letting people have that freedom. It’s all individual choices and we should be above all this,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Human Rights Party protem secretary-general P. Uthayakumar said that Siti’s comments were uncalled for and insensitive.&lt;br /&gt;
“It borders on religious extremism and is borne out of a narrow minded view,” he said. Uthayakumar also claimed that since it was aired on national TV, it meant that Siti’s comments were state sanctioned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, MIC has expressed shock over the remarks of a religious teacher who claimed that it was the Christians who often indulged in vice. MIC leader said if Malaysians were to move forward as a nation, it was imperative that educators had the right understanding, depth and compassion.&lt;br /&gt;
“It’s alarming that a person of such standing holds such prejudice and bias against Christians. It shows her total lack of understanding about Christianity and its followers,” said Party Information Chief S. Murugesan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Murugesan said the problem of educators themselves becoming “blinkered and prejudiced” had become more apparent in recent years.&lt;br /&gt;
“It’s imperative that all our educators first understand and respect other religions. It’s laudable to promote the values of your own religion but don’t condemn others,”&lt;br /&gt;
“Set our educators right as they will mold our youths,” he added.&lt;br /&gt;
We should not have a government that interferes with the rights of Malaysians to practice their own religion; we should not restrict Muslims from their private affairs. In Indonesia, where 90% of the 230 million populations are Muslims, a girl can convert from Islam to marry a non-Muslim; but why are we different?&lt;br /&gt;
If the Malaysian standard was applied on Siti, her comments amount to sedition then this does not augur well for the 1Malaysia policy that our Prime Minister is promulgating.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Conclusion&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can you celebrate St. Valentine’s Day in a way that honors the original Valentine, who was martyred for his devotion to God?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, give your life to Christ.&lt;br /&gt;
Second, declare the truth about God’s love even if it costs you something.&lt;br /&gt;
Third, become a servant to those you love, rather than demanding that your needs be met. “Be my Valentine”, it simply means “You are Loved.”&lt;br /&gt;
Lastly, local media should be sensitive and responsible media; if such issue is religious sensitive then cancel the program. Thank you.</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">2</thr:total></item><item><title>UNITED BORNEO FRONT</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2011/01/united-borneo-front.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Mon, 17 Jan 2011 00:07:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-5979197297472476602</guid><description>&lt;div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;United Borneo Front&lt;/b&gt; demands for the following, among others :&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The Dayaks who number about 60% of the State population are encouraged to be members of every political party by the BN leaders.

Through this blog we&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;appeal to the British High Commission&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;to arrange for the protem committee members to meet any British leader, British MP, or staff of the High Commission so that the committee members can brief any one of them on the plight of the Dayaks.&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;– The Broken Shield&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In a letter dated 9 April 2008, signed by an official of the Ministry said that the Minister after a careful investigation and consideration has to reject the appeal to register Malaysian Dayak Congress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;“The appeal is rejected based on Section 7(3)(a) of the Societies Act 1966 on grounds that its registration can cause a threat to security and public order,”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;the official said in the letter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, if the applicants were still interested to pursue the MDC registration then they should submit a fresh application to the Registrar of Societies (ROS).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In revealing this today, Joseph Tawie, Protem Information Chief of Malaysian Dayak Congress said that the application to register MDC was submitted on 6 May 2004. The Registrar of Societies rejected it on security grounds under Section 7(3)(a) on 19 July 2006.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The protem committee on 12 August 2006 appealed against the decision of the Registrar to the Minister of Home Affairs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;“Now the Minister has rejected our appeal under the same Section,”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;said Tawie, who expressed deep regret over the decision of the minister.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Section 7 (3) says:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000099; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;“The Registrar shall refuse to register a local society where - (a) it appears to him that such local society is unlawful under the provisions of this Act or any other written law or is likely to be used for unlawful purposes or any purpose prejudicial to or incompatible with peace, welfare, security, public order, good order or morality in Malaysia;”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tawie said the protem committee members will meet in the next few days whether to submit a fresh application or not.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 19.2pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;But in the meantime two options are open to tens of thousands ex-PBDS members who have remained partyless since the deregistration of Parti Bansa Dayak Sarawak (PBDS) on 21 October 2004. (Before its deregistration PBDS had nearly 200,000 members.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One is for them to join Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) and the other is to join any of the existing parties in the State.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personally, I will call on the ex-PBDS members to find a leader and in a group&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;let us all join PKR,&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;hoping that one day PKR together with DAP and PAS will form not only the State government of Sarawak, but also the Federal government.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 19.2pt; margin-bottom: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Only with a change of government can we change laws that are harmful to the Natives.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;- The Broken Shield&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 19.2pt; margin-bottom: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
He said, alternatively, party members, comprising former Parti Bansa Dayak Sarawak PBDS) members who remained partyless, could join Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) or other political parties in the state.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 19.2pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;“We (MDC) have received a number of invitations to join the opposition but we are still holding on as we have yet to decide on the next course of action,”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;he told Bernama today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 19.2pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Following the deregistration of PBDS on Oct 21, 2004, many of its 200,000 members opted to join its offshoot, the Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS), a state Barisan Nasional (BN) component party while “tens of thousands ex-PBDS members remained partyless,” Tawie said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 19.2pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

ROS, meanwhile, advised the applicants to submit a fresh application if they were still interested to pursue the MDC registration.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Salam Sejahtera, fellow Dignitaries of the Council, members of the New Parliament. As we convene for the First Inaugural Parliamentary Meeting for the Sovereign State of New Borneo, I'd like to first thank the Country of Malaysia for officially allowing our country to secure peaceful independence. Without which, today would not be possible. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'd also like to congratulate all the peoples of Borneo for waiting so patiently till today for your kindness, and for having reinstated me, John Doe, as your New White Rajah. I feel deeply honored that that I was chosen to help lead your country into independence, and hope that during my short tenure of 5 years, I will be able to live up to the expectations of my ancestor, James Brooke. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the Record, the Brooke Family was NOT a Colonizing Family. Anyone in Borneo will testify that the people insisted that the Brooke Family continued to stay, despite my family wanting to return to England. Fort Magherita shall be my official residence. And all UMNO offices shall be converted into a Dump-Site, out of severe “respect” for the Malaysian Government. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like to stress that I will only be serving this non-renewable-term of 5 years, after-which this position must be taken over by a local person. As first order of the day, let us peruse key points of the Constitution of New Borneo. The official name is to be called New Borneo. This is the original name of the island (unlike the Tanah Melayu crap). It comprises of 2 sovereign states of Sabah and Sarawak. I put forward the proposal to change the name from “Division 1”, “Division 2” and so on to a more inclusive name. Divisiveness is an UMNO trait, which we do not want to carry into this brand new country. Legislators, please note. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The official flower is the Rafflesia, and the official mascot will be the Orang Utan. Would Malaysia kindly note that you will have to remove your mascot, because there are NO known Orang Utans there on the Peninsular, other than the uncouth practice of delinquent and uneducated UMNO members who call each other such names. And you have merely borrowed our icon for your advertising purposes, when we remained under your colony. “Yes, You're Welcome”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The new National Anthem is to be determined by the people. And it must not be a copy of “Terang Bulan” or “Mamula Moon”; which Negaraku is copied from. And the New National Anthem must not sound like some Military March as if Hitler was in-charge or something. Make sure it sounds better, and more romantic than “America the Beautiful”. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And now for housekeeping issues. Elections shall commence as soon as the new territories are drawn up. Each constituency shall comprise of circa 30,000 people give or take 20%. Unlike in Malaysia, where Putrajaya has 4,500, and Theresa Kok has 75,000 voters, all competing for the same voting power in Parliament. There shall be no such rubbish under New Borneo. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new Oil Company called Borneo Petroleum Company (BPC) shall be responsible for all the oil procurement in this country. For the first 5 years under my tenure, 50% of all oil revenue will be equally distributed among the population regardless of race or creed. This new Drastic Economic Plan (DEP) is to ensure that poverty is completely eradicated once and for all. With the view that we catch up with the rest of the world. After-which, we will allow the forces of Laissez Faire take over. It will be a Free-Economy. There shall be no taxes for the next 20 years to spur creativity, businesses, and entrepreneurship. Foreign investors are however, still subject to Taxes, but this will in turn be fed directly for Healthcare purposes (see below).  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The new currency shall be called the Borneo Dollar. It shall be pegged to the Singapore and Brunei  Dollar, over a linear slope over the next 5 years. One thought just occurred to me though, with Singapore, Sabah and Sarawak out of the picture now, should Malaysia be renamed Malaya? Just a thought... just a thought... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ALL illegal logging shall be banned. Anyone so much as cut down a tree shall be Jailed. However, we will  make tree-replanting compulsory, and the information shall be made public at all times. OSA, ISA, and so on, were dark chapters of our Colonized past. Never to be repeated. Sandakan, Kudat, KK, Miri, Bintulu, and Kuching shall be made Free Ports, and a new Naval Base will be set up in Lahad Datu to combat the terrorists streaming from the Sulu and Mindanao areas. On this note, I would like to stress that National Service will be in effect. And the Elite Forces shall be called “Borneo Rangers”; a Tribute to the past and Glorious “Sarawak Rangers”. Nepalese Gurkha's, SAS, and US Marines will be brought in to train the rookies. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leave the locals to decide what to do with Bakun (the fiasco) Damn Dam. The Damn Bakun Dam has caused irreversible damage to the environment. Not to mention the amount of corruption. And the 10,000 People, whose homes the Malaysian Government destroyed. The second damn dam lies in Bario. Where it worked for only 5 minutes the first day it was built. This came at a staggering cost of RM14 million for a small Hydroelectric Damn Dam. This was 14 years ago, and the Kelabits who live there stil do not have electricity, other than personal Generator sets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fuel, by the way was RM8.50 per litre in 2005. This is ridicuous. Especially for a state which produces oil. No longer will fuel in New Borneo be 20% more expensive than the Peninsular. Fuel will remain at ONE Borneo Dollar per litre for the next 20 years. However, during this time, we shall also explore other sustanable fuel alternatives. Such as Solar, and harnessing Wave-Technology to generate electricity. Petroleum based cars shall also be replaced by Electric Cars soon. New Borneo will host the Largest Electric Car Manufacturers in the World. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Schools shall be completely free. And New Universities shall be setup, and we will import the best lecturers and teachers from Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford, and the likes of such Ivy League Schools. There will be NO marking-on-a-curve. However, if you fail three times, you will be expelled from the Education system. You, the people of Borneo will have to be strong. You will have to be brave. In a meritocratic country, there is no safety-net to save your butt. If you fail, you will fail. (The unemployed will have to register with the Department. They will be given temporary Food Vouchers, but they must also show that they have gone for interviews, at least twice a week.) There will also be free Healthcare. Again, doctors will be imported from the best Medical Research Centers from France, Japan, and so on. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the issue of religion, there shall be NO official Religion in Borneo. Religion is a personal belief, and should stay that way. No Government Official shall impose his religion on others. No one shall use his “religiosity” to circumvent academic achievements. Civil Servants will be Civil SERVANTS. They shall never be Civil LORDS like those in Malaysia. Again, three warnings, and you will be fired. Every Civil SERVANT works FOR the Public. NOT the other way around. Just like different family members living under the same roof having different religion, we, the People of New Borneo shall too. Ketuanan anything is illegal in New Borneo. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the third Largest Island in the world, we strive to be the third largest Economy in the world. In principle, with the immediate distribution of 50% oil revenues, New Borneo achieves First World Status Overnight. (ok, maybe we need to build a few more infrastructures to qualify) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Borneo is not interested in building Phallic monuments. She wants progress. She wants a future, and she definitely does not want glorified Space Tourists prancing around town. You want to be a Space Tourist? Go pay for it yourself. Don't use government (aka the people's money) to do it. After all, they have Budget-Space-Tours now. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Final word, the words “Bumiputra”,  “Ketuanan” and “Race”, with immediate effect are deemed “bad words”. On par with other “bad words” like FUCK, Pukimak, and so on. Use sparingly; preferably not at all.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank You Ladies and Gentlemen, please have a good rest. Much merriment is in store for you, and enjoy your new Found Freedom. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
God Bless New Borneo &lt;br /&gt;

Speaker utama,iaitu president Parti Rakyat Malaysia Encik Hassan Karim  telah mengemukakan pandangan beliau terhadap pertukaran ideologi  sosialisme kembali ke asalnya,sementara itu,Pengerusi PSM Encik Nasir  Hashim pula sebagai panel yang membangkang dan setuju perjuangan  sosialisme mesti wujud.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="post-header"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;Sebagai ahli pre-PRM,iaitu Parti Sosialis  Rakyat Malaysia(PSRM)sebelum parti ini menggugurkan ideologi  sosialisme,Encik Nasir keluar dari PRM bersama dengan komrad yang masih  kukuhkan fahaman sosialisme dan menubuhkan PSM,selain melanjutkan  memperjuang untuk rakyat yang diekspoitasi &amp;amp; ditindaskan oleh  kerajaan kanan(rasisme) ,adakah PSM suatu legasi pejuang kiri utama  Malaysia selepas PSRM yang dibubarkan?Ataupun PRM sekarang yang tidak  lagi memeluki fahaman sosialisme itu masih layak dianggap sebagai  pejuang kiri?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Berasaskan kertas yang ditulis Encik Hassan yang  sama dengan tajuk perbentengan,saya ingin mengemukakan pandangan saya  terhadap kertas ini.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Kiri - Nasionalisme Malaya&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Perkataan  “Kiri”(Left)yang amat bermakna dalam kamus ideologi dan sosialisme ini  sebenarnya berasal dari Revolusi Perancis,bahawa semua wakil kongres  yang duduk di arah kiri itu adalah radikal.Benarkah para sosialis  sekarang kesemuanya adalah bersikap radikal?Tidak.Perkataan asal ini  ialah maksud lama pada kurun-18 dan sosialisme masih belum wujud lagi  ,selepas abad ke-19,kiri itu bermakna ideologi poilitik yang  “ber-Progresif”di kalangan parti politik,kedudukan rakyat &amp;amp;  persatuan.PRM yang ditubuh pada 50-an oleh majoritinya masyarakat Melayu  yang dipimpini oleh Ahmad Boestamam itu yang merupakan parti Nasionalis  Progresif,tetapi PRM ketika itu berfahaman kiri dan “nasionalisme” itu  bukan perkataan sempit yang difahamkan oleh parti kiri  Melayu-UMNO.Nasionalis Ahmad Boestaman itu sebelumya (pada era KMM)itu  mungkin kepentingan terhadap orang Melayu sahaja, PRM adalah parti kiri  pertama yang mengesyorkan nasionalis “Malayan”,iaitu tidak bersifat  perkauman.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cuba kita mengkaji sejarah Malaysia/Malaya yang  sebenar(bukan versi kerajaan BN), parti politik perikatan yang bernama  AMCJA-PUTERA merupakan pakatan parti politik kiri yang terdiri daripada  parti kiri ,islamik &amp;amp; nasionalis itu telah ditubuh sejak 1947,ia  merupakan perikatan politik yang terawal sekali berbanding dengan  perikatan kanan yang ditubuhkan oleh UMNO-MCA-MIC pada 1955.Malangnya  AMCJA-PUTERA dibubarkan disebabkan pemerintahan darurat yang kejam oleh  penjajah British yang menindaskan parti politik kiri &amp;amp;  anti-komunisme.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tidak boleh dinafikan bahawa AMCJA-PUTERA adalan  perikatan pertama sebenar yang tidak mengirakan bangsa,agama &amp;amp;  status,ia adalan pakatan parti pogressif &amp;amp; pengasas gerakan kiri  dalam sejarah Malaysia.UMNO itu sebenarnya feudalis yang tidak menyokong  kemerdekaan dan diperintah oleh penjajah orang putih , kesian rakyat  Malaysia ditipu selama 50 tahun oleh kerana sejarah yang ditulis oleh  kerajaan parti perikatan kanan .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;PAS, DAP, PKR - Demokrats&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Kebanyakan  orang mungkin akan keliru sama ada PAS,DAP &amp;amp; PKR itu berfahaman  kiri ke atau tidak?PAS yang ditubuh pada 50-an adalah legasi Hizbul  Muslimin yang merupakan parti islamik kiri.Pemimpin pertama dan tokoh  PAS Dr Burhanuddin Helmi juga adalah tokoh fahaman kiri Malaysia.Selepas  Revolusi Islamik Iran pada 1979 yang mengenggami dunia Islam ,ia mula  dipimpini oleh para ulama yang berfahaman agama sampai kini, kes-kes  seperti pertubuhan negara Islam &amp;amp; Hudud yang diutamakan oleh PAS  adalah tidak patut kerana rakyat Malaysia terdiri dari pelbagai kaum  &amp;amp; beragama bebas.Yang janji,PAS adalah parti democrat Islam  sekarang,bukan parti sekular atau fundamentalis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
DAP semenjak  diasingkan dari PAP berfahaman sosial-demokrat dan bukanya  sosialisme,tetapi ia juga dianggap sebagai parti politik kiri yang  mementingkan perkembangan politik di kalangan rakyat  Malaysia,terutamanya demokrasi.Walau bagaimanapun,faham social-demokrat  DAP semakin kabur,tidak semacam dengan apa yang dilihat di Eropah  Utara(yang kerajaannya pernah dipimpin olah parti social-demokrat),DAP  lebih mementingkan kemajuan ekonomi bebas dan kurang memerhatikan  masalah sosial yang mendalam,ia boleh dikira sebagai parti demokrat atau  sepatutnya-liberalisme.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PKR ditubuh pada 2003 selepas gabungan  PRM yang nasionalis progresif dengan PKN yang nasionalis Melayu.Adakah  PKR parti boleh dikira sebagai parti nasionalis progresif juga?Pandangan  saya ialah mungkin ,kerana ahlinya terdiri daripada pelbagai kaum  walaupun pimpinan asasnya diketuai orang Melayu.Lebih jelas dilihat  ialah kemenangannya pada PRU-12 dan statusnya berkembang dari minority  ke majority,ahli parlimen serta ahli DUNnya terdiri dari pelbagai kaum  serta berlainan agama,dan parti politik-PSM &amp;amp; MDP bertanding dibawah  tiket PKR.Tetapi,sama ada PKR itu berfahaman politik juga?Tidak. Ia  boleh dianggap sebagai parti nasionalisme,atau parti yang lebih liberal  sahaja.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
UMNO dan MCA pula,tidak dinafikan bahawa selepas Partai  Buruh dibubarkan,ahli kaum Cina yang banyak sekali telah menyertai  MCA,sementara itu UMNO juga mempunyai ahli fahaman kiri yang  kurang.Tetapi mereka tidak dapat menbuat apa-apa perubahan sekiranya  mereka telah menyertai parti kanan &amp;amp; hanya berjuangan demi rakyat  sendiri sahaja.Jadi,wajarkah mereka dianggap kiri &amp;amp; progresif?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;PRM Tidak Lagi Bersifat Kiri&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Encik  Hassan mengatakan keguguran fahaman sosialisme tidak berkaitan dengan  tembok Berlin yang jatuh pada 1989 &amp;amp; perbubaran USSR pada 1991.Yang  pelik itu adalah kenapa ia tidak digugurkan pada 1986 selepas  perbincangan PSRM tetapi pada tahun 1991? Adakah ini merupakan sesuatu  kebetulan atau semuanya telah dirancangkan?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mungkin PRM sudah  berada dalam situasi yang kontradiksi selepas seluruh dunia pada masa  itu anti-regim komunisme &amp;amp; mengadakan gerakan demokrasi di kalangan  pekerja dan pelajar di Eropah Timur ketika itu. Selepas tembok Berlin  jatuh,kesemua blok Komunisme yang memeluk apa yang dikata  Sosialisme-tetapi Stalinisme itu jatuh seperti domino,PRM masih ada  segelintir harapan lagi kerana Negara Sosialisme pertama USSR masih  belum dijatuhkan.Inikah nasibnya sebagai sebuah Negara yang tidak lagi  mementingkan kehidupan rakyat &amp;amp; ideology sosialisme,USSR bubar  selepas berlakunya kes pemberontak yang dirancangkan oleh POLITBURO(Buro  Politik).PSRM lega mengugurkan sosialisme saintifik atau dikenali  sebagai Marxisme,fahaman terpenting di kalangan sosialis,dan balik ke  pangkuan nasionalisme yang “so-called”progresif.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Memang benar  politik kiri di Malaysia tidak berkaitan dengan keruntuhan Tembok Berlin  &amp;amp; kejatuhan USSR,dan kenapa PSRM masih sudi mengugurkan sosialisme  jika ia tidak berkaitan dengan aspek antarabangsa? PRM tidak berpihak  dengan apa-apa komiti antarabangsa seperti Komintern atau China,tidak  seperti PKM yang mematuhi arahan Komunis China &amp;amp; Partai Buruh yang  akhirnya memeluk fahaman ultra-kiri iaitu Kultur Revolusi China.PRM ada  jalannya sendiri,walaupun Fron Sosialis dibubarkan pada sekitar 60-an,ia  masih merupakan parti kiri yang profesional selepas Partai Buruh  dibubarkan,yang kurang itu mungkin parti tidak mengadakan reform dan  “outdated”(bukan segi ideology tetapi management).&lt;br /&gt;
Bukan rakyat  Malaysia menolak ideology sosialisme,seperti saya katakan sejarah  Malaysia telah diubahsuai kepada suatu penipuan yang beranggap kiri  &amp;amp; komunis itu adalah jahaman &amp;amp; terrorisme.Cuba kita lihat  PKM,satu angkatan guerrilla yang dipimpini oleh Rashid Mahideen  kesemuanya kaum Melayu,mereka memeluk fahaman komunisme yang berjuang  mati apatah lagi sosialisme yang penting kepada rakyat dan ekonomi  secara aman?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ideologi sosialisme tidak “wide-spread”kepada  kalangan masyarakat Melayu serta kaum lain secara betul dan dalam masa  yang tepat,selepas ekonomik Malaysia berkembang,adakah sosialisme tidak  berguna lagi dan merupakan ideologi “outdated”?Sekiranya ada rakyat yang  miskin dan ditindas,gerakan kiri selalunya ada,sosialisme itu mesti  ada!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jadi,wajarkah sebuah parti yang asalnya fahaman kiri  sosialisme(KMM sebelum itu barulah nasionalisme)mengugurkan sosialisme  dianggap parti kiri?Wajarkah bendera partinya masih diwarnai merah yang  bermaksud perjuangan rakyat &amp;amp; marhaen ?Wajarkah simbol banteng yang  membawa lambang pekerja &amp;amp; gerakan kiri itu masih digunakan lagi?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Sosialisme Itu Kiri&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Tiada  luas atau sempit pada perkataan “kiri”ini,mulanya ia bersifat  radikal,dan ia berunsur progresif dan selepas itu sosialisme.Hanya  sosialis sahaja yang wajar menerima bahawa mereke ini “leftist”(orang  kiri).Sosialisme yang orthodoks bukan fascisme atau nasional-socialisme  yang ultra-kanan dan tidak berperimanusiaan,dan bukan sekadar radikal  sahaja dan perjuangan darah yang tidak berhabis-habisan seperti  komunisma.Sosialisme bela kepentingin rakyat jelata tidak membezakan  kaum,teutamanya yang miskin,dan membawa makna “equality” dan “Justice”  dalam ekonomik dan social,serta kemanusiaan,yang dikemukakan oleh  sosialis Eropah pada abad 20-an yang mendeklamasikan Marxisme dan  pandangan sosialisme yang lebih berperikemanusiaan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Walaupun PRM  pada masa sekarang telah mengugurkan fahaman sosialisme,tetapi apa yang  mereka telah sumbang sebelum dan selepas merdeka dalam gerakan kiri  ,membasmi kemiskinan serta mengetuai parti sosialisme lain,pekerja dan  masyarakat yang status rendah,zaman kegemilangannya &amp;amp; sumbangannya  tidak dapat dilupai.PRM yang berfahaman sosialisme kini telah lenyap dan  tidak mempunyai ideology yang lebih bermakna selain apa yang dikata  nasional progresif, kebanyakannya ahli pun telah bertukar posisi ke  PKR,siapa yang telah gagal ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kewujudan Parti Sosialis Malaysia  adalah sangat penting dan memberi harapan kepada gerakan kiri dan  perjuangan rakyat dituruskan.Ideologi itu merupakan satu fahaman yang  terdiri daripada social dan ekonomi,gerakan kiri tidak setentunya hanya  berjuang demi sesuatu status,juga kekayaan dan hak kepunyaan rakyat  secara aman dan demokrasi,bukan secara keganasan.Sebab itu dua ahli PSM  telah dipilih oleh rakyat sebagai wakil mereka untuk berjuang demi hak  asasi dan meningkatkan status kehidupan mereka.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sosialisme tetap  bentara gerakan kiri di Malaysia,malah di serata dunia juga,jika  kesemuanya tidak kira apa fahaman progresif yang dianggapan kiri,apakah  theori yang sebenarnya kiri?Lambang kiri sudah ditentukan sejak abad  ke20,dan ia menjadi lambang yang bertentangan dengan apa yang mengugat  &amp;amp; mengancami kehidupan &amp;amp; kepentingan setaraf di kalangan  rakyat,kalau bukannya sosialisme,apa lagi?</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>Pengguna Jeti Kuala Baram Miri Terpaksa Berak Dalam Semak</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2010/11/pengguna-jeti-kuala-baram-miri-terpaksa.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Wed, 24 Nov 2010 20:14:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-3943084801810058980</guid><description>&lt;a href="http://sarawakupdate.com/home/10th-state-election/pengguna-jeti-kuala-baram-terpaksa-berak-dalam-babas/"&gt;http://sarawakupdate.com/home/10th-state-election/pengguna-jeti-kuala-baram-terpaksa-berak-dalam-babas/&lt;/a&gt;</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">1</thr:total></item><item><title>Special Meeting Of Pastors &amp; Church Leaders, Miri 15-11-2010</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2010/11/special-meeting-of-pastors-church.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Wed, 10 Nov 2010 18:40:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-1396693997696491146</guid><description>&lt;h3 class="post-title entry-title"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;To All concerned Christians,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Kalau pergi ke food court boleh jumpa orang Melayu dalam kumpulan orang Dayak dan Cina dan sebaliknya. Orang India sini ramai boleh cakap Hokkien. Orang Melayu boleh bercakap Iban. Orang Cina boleh bercakap Sarawak dan Orang Dayak boleh bercakap macam orang Semenanjung. Sana orang tak heran dengan 1Malaysia sebab kitaorang dah hidup macam tu sejak dulu lagi. Sebab itu, sekolah mubaligh sekalipun ramai orang Melayu yang masuk sebab TIDAK ADA ISU. Cikgu sekolah tak paksa budak Melayu masuk Kristian atau sembah Jesus. Dan takde yang halang budak Melayu berpuasa atau menunaikan solat ataupun nak pakai songkok atau tudung. Sekolah mubaligh tu wujud dari masa zaman british dan sekolah sekolah ni kekal sehingga sekarang kerana dari dahulu lagi orang british mengajar SEMUA bangsa dan agama dalam pendidikan akademik, bukan keagamaan. Agama masing-masing adalah hak masing-masing. Bila British pergi, tradisi dikekalkan TETAPI diterapkan dengan sistem pendidikan kita sebab itu, sekolah mubaligh sekalipun ada surau dan kelas agama. Sebab itu orang Melayu Sarawak tak heran hantar anak2 mereka ke sekolah mubaligh.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Orang Sarawak bekerja di Semenanjung boleh belajar cakap macam orang setempat dalam masa beberapa tahun sahaja. Tak kira la di Kelantan ke, Kedah ke, 'Ganu ke, Penang ke, Perlih ke, Johor ke. Semua diaorang belajar. Sampai makanan pun mereka adapt. TETAPI orang Semenanjung yang bekerja di Sarawak, nak makan pun pikir bersih tidak. Orang sini tak heran tengok warung satay duduk sebelah warung bak kut teh bang. Siap boleh order hantar sebelah lagi. SATAY hantar sebelah OK? Never the other way round sebab orang Cina pun tau respect orang Islam tak makan khinzir. Tapi yang Cina pun nak juga makan satay. Orang Melayu yang makan di warung satay tak muntah, tak kutuk pun apek makan bak kut teh. Dari segi bahasa, ada orang Semenanjung bertahun-tahun bekerja di Sarawak, ramai yang langsung tak reti cakap Sarawak ataupun menyesuaikan diri dengan keadaan di sini. Cakap dengan waiter pun guna bahasa semenanjung sebab katanya 'itulah Bahasa Malaysia' walaupun hakikatnya tak nak belajar sebab ego, sebab dia rasa Semenanjung Malaysia tu la Malaysia. Ye la...kan orang selalu kata Semenanjung Malaysia, Sabah dan Sarawak? Semenanjung tu tolak tepi, ambik Malaysia je.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Dia bukan orang Vietnam, bukan orang Thailand, bukan CINA PUN! He is a native Sarawakian! If he wants to eat pork in his school during his recess, selama sekolah itu bukan sekolah agama, THAT IS HIS RIGHT! Dia bukan Islam dan dia boleh makan. JADI kenapa rotan dia?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It was reported that you had recently despatched your officers to investigate the dispute over 3,305 hectares of communal forests between the natives and a logging company which the natives claim to be their native customary rights land, situated between Sungai Sebangan and Sungai Sebuyau in Sarawak. &lt;br /&gt;
2. If this report is indeed true, then we are optimistic that only intervention from your goodself would resolve the matter amicably.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. The situation has deteriorated badly and there is grave concern that it might escalate to violence and lives may be at risk. The latest development can be read here.&lt;br /&gt;

4. The logging company in question is Quality Concrete Holdings and one of its directors is Datuk Raziah Mahmud, the sister to the Chief Minister of Sarawak. She is making headlines today on the internet with an expose reporting that she had recently taken a loan of RM880,000 million from RHB Bank to finance a project of which its nature is still unknown.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. The Iban, who are using their own bodies as the human shield of the blockade, are looking to you, their Prime Minister, to intervene and acknowledge their rights over their communal land.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. While you’re at it, sir, perhaps you could also instruct your Minister of Natural Resources &amp;amp; Environment to look into the country’s worst ever environmental disaster happening a few miles away in the Rejang river. Perhaps you have not been informed about it as you have been busy with the Budget, but it really is a natural calamity of gigantic proportions which everybody in the Government is trying to sweep under the carpet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. YAB Prime Minister, please show us that you really mean what you say when you said you are the Prime Minister for all Malaysians because action speaks louder than words.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you, sir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PEOPLE FIRST, PERFORMANCE NOW.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sincerely,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;General Introduction&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I write this article in good faith for  kind attention of all Dayak Ibans and other Dayak communities (Dayaklama  and/or Dayakbaru) of Sarawak. We, Dayaks (Dayak Iban, Dayak Bidayuh and  Dayak Orang Ulu), in Sarawak may not have 20 points like State of Sabah  but we extremely have at least &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;21 points agreement&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; prior to the formation of the “Federation of Malaysia”.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;“Kapit Resolution 1962”&lt;/b&gt;  was the key treaty and/or agreement mooted by the native Ibans with  regard to the proposal of the “Federation of Malaysia” via the Malaysia  Plan “Aum” 1962.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;img alt="" class="alignnone" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX9zAKziJHM4NkTtzNJo-0qZAn9RBYQQEjJoK5-YjGqvmbnG-tQJt7Nw834s0a08fgqzbErbN_HlhBPbGpRE0oKEA_rxpfGTzPn3B5CwUZizFRjA4o5-utcPkI92Haz_qdSzvFSeJ6a5-q/s400/colonial.gif" title="Sarawak Flag" width="490" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;47 years of independence, Malaysia  and/or the Federation of Malaya (promoted by UMNO) had failed to  safeguard the natives’ rights and/or privileges and had also failed to  accelerate efforts to improve the economics future of the natives in  Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Our history began here in 1962. The Ibans form the largest single group of the population and by far the largest native group.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Ibans are primarily country people and  few take to town life. Although they are to be found throughout the  country, nearly 75% of their total number live in the Second and Third  Divisions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Special Privileges for Natives Sarawak &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Groups from all natives populations expressed a general desires;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;a.&lt;/b&gt; The Head of State should be a native of Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;b.&lt;/b&gt; That special  privileges should be given to the natives. They were extremely anxious  that their position in the new Federation should be analogous to that of  the Malays in the present Constitution of the Federation of Malaya.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;c.&lt;/b&gt; There was a general  agreement that economic development should be accelerated and increased  attention paid to education, in particular reference to the needs of the  natives;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;d.&lt;/b&gt; That the land,  forestry and agriculture should be subjected to be controlled by the  State Government. Great emphasis was also laid on the need to safeguard  customary rights and practices.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;e.&lt;/b&gt; Customary land and other native rights should be protected.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;General natives’ opinions toward the formation of “The Federation of Malaysia”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;On a number of other points there are also some differences in opinions:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;a.&lt;/b&gt; Some elements favor  the arrangement that the Head of State of Sarawak should also be  eligible to be the Head of the Federation of Malaysia, while others, a  smaller element, favor a popularly elected of the Federation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;b.&lt;/b&gt; There were  differences in attitude towards the acceptance of Islam as the national  religions for Malaysia as a whole, and towards its particular  application to Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;c.&lt;/b&gt; There were similar  differences in attitude towards Malay as the national language for  Malaysia as a whole and towards its application to Sarawak; and also as  to official languages for Sarawak&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;d.&lt;/b&gt; There was conflict  regarding the Constitutional allocation of the legislative powers  between the Federal and the State Governments in the new Federation, to  which is related the question of a formula for representation in the new  Federal Parliament.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;e.&lt;/b&gt; The immigration into  Sarawak from other territories of the proposed Federation should be  under the control of the State authorities. This springs from the fear  that, on the establishment of “Malaysia”, the people of Malaya and  Singapore in particular would migrate in large numbers to Sarawak to  take advantage of the land and opportunities available, to the detriment  of the people of Sarawak themselves. Coupled with this general anxiety,  there is particular concern about the possible entry of undesirable  elements from “outside”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;f.&lt;/b&gt; There should also be  no rapid change in the administrative arrangements affecting the daily  life of the people or in such matters as taxation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;g.&lt;/b&gt; Rural development  should be accelerated as it has been in the Federation of Malaya so that  the general standard of living could be raised as soon as possible.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;“Aum Kapit” Malaysia Plan 1962&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;img alt="" class="alignnone" height="291" src="http://tunjugahfoundation.org.my/images/fs08.jpg" title="Aum Kapit Resolution 1962" width="480" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;“Aum”&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; in Iban herein referred to as &lt;b&gt;“conference”&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The most important single center of the  Ibans is at Kapit in the Third Division. A conference (or “aum”) of 51  elected Chiefs (Pengarahs and Penghulus) had been held there on the 15th  February, 1962, to discuss the proposals for a “Federation of Malaysia”  set out in the Sarawak Government’s Paper.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;KAPIT RESOLUTIONS 1962&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Iban conference @Aum reached their  general agreement that the “scheme” should be supported, subject to  certain conditions, and their resolutions&amp;nbsp; when the &lt;b&gt;Cobbold Commission&lt;/b&gt; visited Kapit on the 19th March 1962.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The&lt;b&gt; “Kapit Resolutions 1962” &lt;/b&gt;were as follows:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;1. Head of Sarawak State:&lt;/b&gt; The Head of the State of Sarawak to be a native of Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Some groups expressed a wish that he  should be elected by the people. Some would like him to have the title  of Rajah and to be an Iban.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In either case, it was held that he  should be eligible, with the Heads of other States in the new  Federation, for the post of Head of the Federations. One or two groups  asked that, during the initial period, a British Governor should be  retained.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;2. Head of State of Malaysia:&lt;/b&gt; The Head of each State in the Federation of Malaysia to be eligible in due course to be the Head of the Federation of Malaysia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Some Ibans asked that he should be given  the title of President as the title Yang di-Pertuan Agong is Malay, and  is not acceptable.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;3. Tradition Custom:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;i&gt;“Adat Lama”&lt;/i&gt; to remain under the control of the Government of the State of Sarawak as it has until to-day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;4. Sarawak Land:&lt;/b&gt; Land to be under the control of the State including the existing rights of the natives of Sarawak in such matters as land.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;5. National language:&lt;/b&gt;  There was some difference of opinion. Some groups suggested that there  should be no national language; others wanted it to be Iban. Still  others were willing to have Malay or Iban.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;6. Official Language:&lt;/b&gt;  English to remain the official language of the State of Sarawak and to  continue to be one of the official languages of Malaysia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There was agreement among groups that  English should be retained either indefinitely or for at least fifteen  (15) years as the official language, not only in Sarawak but in the new  Federation as well. Some groups wished Iban as well as English to be an  official language.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;7. Religion: &lt;/b&gt;Freedom in religious worship&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;8. Federal Representation:&lt;/b&gt; There is to be adequate representation for Sarawak in the Federal Government.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;A number of groups asked that this  should be worked out on a combined population and areas basis and that,  within the number of seats allocated to Sarawak in the House of  Representatives, the Ibans should have equal representation with the  Malays and the Chinese.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;9. Native Employment:&lt;/b&gt;  British officers to remain until replaced by properly qualified local  people. Natives to have a fair share of Government employment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;10. Native Privileges and Status:&lt;/b&gt; Sarawak natives to enjoy the same status and privileges as Malays in Malaya.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;11. Education: &lt;/b&gt;Education  to be a Federal subject and to be equalized throughout Malaysia as soon  as possible. Sarawak natives to have a fair share of overseas  scholarships.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;12. Medium of instruction in schools:&lt;/b&gt; English should be retained as the medium of instruction, but Iban should be taught as a subject.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;13. Immigration:&lt;/b&gt; Immigration to remain under the control of the State of Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;14. State Powers:&lt;/b&gt; Powers reserved in the Constitution to a State may not be changed without the agreement of the State.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;15. Development:&lt;/b&gt; Development in Sarawak to be accelerated.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;16. Religion:&lt;/b&gt; Much  emphasis was placed on the need for freedom of religion as there is at  present, i.e., freedom to profess, practice and propagate any religion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There was a general feeling that Sarawak  should be a secular State and the suggestion was made that if Muslims  were given assistance from Federal funds, other religions – Christianity  was specially mentioned – should enjoy similar treatment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;17. Name of the new Federation: &lt;/b&gt;There was dislike of the name “MALAYSIA” and hope that some other name could be devised. Many alternatives were suggested.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;18. Armed Forces: &lt;/b&gt;The Ibans are anxious to have a fair chance of service in the Federation’s armed forces.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;19. Sarawak State:&lt;/b&gt; A  number of groups wanted to be sure that they could have a separate  Sarawak State flag – some mentioned the old Rajah’s flag – a State  anthem and a National Day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;20. Self-Government:&lt;/b&gt;  The Ibans had been looking forward to the self-government which had been  promised to them, and the principal reason why they were ready, on  conditions, to accept the Malaysia proposals, despite their  uncertainties, was because they were confident that the British  Government would not recommend the scheme if it was not going to be  beneficial to them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;21.&amp;nbsp; Equal rights:&lt;/b&gt;  Ibans wanted to be treated by the Malays as brothers, but not as the  younger brothers. They were opposed to the idea that Sarawak should be  treated as only one of 15 States in a Federation of Malaysia; they  maintained that this would give her too small a voice in the new  Federation’s affairs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The &lt;b&gt;51 Chiefs&lt;/b&gt; at the  conference together were said to represent some 112,000 Ibans out of a  total population of nearly 238,000 and many delegations of Ibans who  came before the &lt;b&gt;Cobbold Commission&lt;/b&gt; teams at different centers in the Third Division confirmed that they supported the &lt;b&gt;“Kapit Resolutions 1962”&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In a small number of cases a demand was  made that they should either be accepted without alteration or that any  changes should be made only after there had been opportunity for further  discussion with the Iban people.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While the great majority of the Ibans in the Third Division who were in favor of the Malaysia plan took their stand on the &lt;b&gt;“Kapit Resolutions 1962”&lt;/b&gt;, there were some groups who gave their full support to the “scheme” on the basis of the recommendations in the report of the &lt;b&gt;Malaysia Solidarity Consultative Committee (MSCC)&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Notes:&lt;/b&gt; The Sarawak MSCC Delegations in Singapore were represented by (3rd February 1962):&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Yeo Cheng Hoe – Leader&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ong Kee Hui – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Temenggong Jugah Ak Barieng – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Pengarah Montegrai Ak Tugang – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Dato Abang Haji Openg – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ling Beng Siew – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;James Wong – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Remigius Durin Ak Nganau – Member&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Other Desirable Provisions&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Some felt that this was a desirable  provision in a new venture about which they felt some doubts. Others  suggested that it should apply only in certain circumstances such as:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;a.&lt;/b&gt; A change of regime in Kuala Lumpur.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;b.&lt;/b&gt; A change in the Federal Constitution which had not been accepted by Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One group from the Baram River hotly  opposed the creation of a Federation of Malaysia but recognized that the  decision might go against them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;They insisted that, if this was so, certain conditions should be met. These were much the same as those set out in the &lt;b&gt;“Kapit Resolutions 1962&lt;/b&gt;”, but went further in some respects and the group was not prepared to discuss any modification of them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Right to withdraw from the new Federation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There was fear too that a large  proportion of Sarawak’s revenue would be handed over to the Federal  Government without a corresponding return in the shape of services to  the people of Sarawak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The question of the right to withdraw from the new Federation was raised with Sarawak MCSS at Kapit and elsewhere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In certain circumstances there should be  such a right at least for a period of five (5) years, and that this  should be specifically stated in the Federal Constitution.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Conclusion&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Second Division Ibans were not represented at the &lt;b&gt;“Aum Kapit”&lt;/b&gt; but most of the many groups supported the idea of Malaysia, though they asked for safeguards.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In many places, more especially in the  more remote areas and in areas where the Ibans form a proportionately  smaller section of the population, a feeling of general uncertainty was  apparent.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Ibans and others who had given the matter careful thought, that the &lt;b&gt;“Kapit Resolutions 1962”&lt;/b&gt; had to be considered against a background of implicit trust in the British Government.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Political activity had been stimulated to an alarming degree by the &lt;b&gt;“Malaysia”&lt;/b&gt;  proposals and many Ibans were afraid that there might be violence not  only between different races but between Ibans who supported the &lt;b&gt;“Malaysia Plan”&lt;/b&gt; and those who opposed it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Finally, the view was expressed by the  Ibans in many centers that it was of great importance that a decision on  Malaysia should be reached as soon as possible.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;So, where are Ibans and other native Dayaks today? What is your general status?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;If you failed to vote your rights, you failed to protect and/or defend your “Special Privileges”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;AGI IDUP – AGI NGELABAN – CHANGE WE MUST…..Hoo…Haa…!!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;  &lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Tahun ini ialah ulangtahun ke-93 bagi salah satu peristiwa abad ke-20 yang paling penting dan paling mengharukan. Tetapi anda tidak akan menyedarinya dari mana-mana suratkhabar atau rancangan television. Revolusi di Rusia pada tahun 1917 adalah peristiwa yang dibenci oleh mereka yang mempertahankan sistem yang kita menghadapi setiap hari. Ini adalah kerana rakyat jelata telah mengambil kehidupan mereka ke dalam tangan sendiri. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Ahli-ahli sejarah yang membenci peristiwa ini mendakwa bahawa ia merupakan konspirasi oleh sebuah kumpulan kecil yang dikenali sebagai pihak Bolshevik. Tidak terdapat apa-apa yang lebih jauh dari kebenaran. Krisis sosial yang wujud pada masa itu bermakna bahawa rakyat tidak dapat berterusan dalam keadaan melarat seperti itu. Orang yang beberapa tahun sebelum itu mungkin tidak menghiraukan seseorang yang menjual suratkhabar Bolshevik kini menyedari sesuatu yang berbeza. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Untuk memenuhi tuntutan-tuntutan asas rakyat – makanan bagi para pekerja di bandar, pemberian tanah kepada kaum petani, pengakhiran serta-merta kepada peperangan – sudah pasti akan berlakunya revolusi.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Bulan-bulan pergolakan yang bertumbuh telah meletus pada pagi 7hb November (25hb Oktober pada kalendar lama). Kumpulan-kumpulan pekerja, kadang-kala diiringi oleh askar-askar yang menyokong revolusi, telah menduduki stesen-stesen keretapi, stesen-stesen penjana kuasa, gudang-gudang senjata, bank-bank, pusat-pusat telefon dan kilang-kilang pencetak di seluruh Petrograd. Malah mereka di barisan hadapan yang mempertahankan sistem lama telah diubah oleh pergolakan popular. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Seorang wartawan Amerika Syarikat, Albert Rhys Williams, telah menghuraikan reaksi pihak askar yang bertanggungjawab untuk menghalang apa-apa pemberontakan. Mereka dikenali sebagai Pengawal Putih. “Mereka membuang topi, tali pinggang dan pedang. Tanda-tanda kehormatan kini menjadi tanda-tanda kemaluan dan kematian,” katanya Williams. “Seorang pegawai tentera yang menjumpai blaus di tempat menjemur baju menjadi sangat gembira. Seorang kapten yang menjumpai apron pemasak memakainya, menyelimuti tangannya dengan tepung dan, sudah putih dengan ketakutan, menjadi Pengawal Putih yang paling putih di seluruh Rusia.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Satu-satunya tempat yang tidak tumbang kepada revolusi merupakan Istana Musim Sejuk, iaitu tempat tinggal bekas pemerintah Tsar. Ia kekal sehingga akhir hari. Rakyat terpaksa mengancamnya dengan meriam sebelum ia juga menyerah diri. Pertempuran yang lebih lama telah berlaku di Moskow, tetapi seluruh negara berada dalam tangan pihak revolusioner tidak lama selepas itu. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Pada hari selepas kebangkitan Petrograd, seorang revolusioner bernama Vladimir Lenin telah berucap kepada kongres wakil-wakil dari majlis-majlis pekerja yang telah diasaskan di seluruh Rusia. Ia dinamakan soviet-soviet. Wartawan Amerika Syarikat bernama John Reed telah menggambarkan “ombak sorakan” yang mengalu-alukan pemimpin ini “yang berpakaian baju tidak kemas, seluarnya terlalu panjang baginya. Tidak hebat untuk menjadi pujaan pergolakan, tetapi disayangi dan disanjung seperti hanya beberapa pemimpin dalam sejarah.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Berita mengenai revolusi itu telah menyebar dengan pantas. Tidak terdapatnya television untuk menyampaikan gambar-gambar kuasa pekerja. Media massa dunia telah menciptakan penipuan dan pemesongan, dengan pengecualian beberapa wartawan yang ikhlas dan berani seperti John Reed. Tetapi mesej tersebut telah disampaikan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Harry McShane, seorang pekerja kejuruteraan militan di Glasglow, mengingati:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Apabila Lenin menuntut “segala kuasa kepada soviet-soviet,” ia bermakna bahawa mereka telah menjumpai sistem pentadbiran sendiri oleh kelas pekerja melalui mana susunan lama telah dihapuskan. Kami bermula menyedari apa yang dimaksudkan oleh revolusi. Kami dahulunya hanya mengenali pemberontakan kelas pekerja. Kini kami membincangkan kuasa kelas pekerja.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Pada permulaan tahun 1917, Rusia telah berperang selamsa dua setengah tahun. Kerajaan Tsar yang korupse dan tidak cekap tidak lagi dapat menangani tekanan bertempur menentang negara-negara yang lebih maju dari segi ekonomi. Pihak askar telah berputus asas, penduduk awam menjadi lapar dan marah. Perubahan meluas tidak dapat dielakkan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Pada bulan Februari, siri permogokan telah meletus. Pada tahap ini, para pekerja biasa jauh lebih teratur daripada pihak revolusioner. Sekumpulan pekerja perempuan di kilang penenunan telah bermogok di Petrograd, walaupun majlis Bolshevik tempatan telah menasihatkan mereka agar jangan bertindak sedemikian. Leon Trotsky, seorang revolusioner utama, telah menotakan bahawa kaum perempuan itu lebih berani daripada kaum lelaki.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Sambil permogokan-permogokan itu berubah menjadi kebangkitan popular, Tsar telah melarikan diri. Sebuah Kerajaan Peralihan baru telah diasaskan, dan percaya bahawa penyelesaian kepada masalah-masalah Rusia merupakan demokrasi parlimen jenis Barat. Tetapi para pekerja sedar bahawa perdebatan-perdebatan parlimen tidak akan memenuhi perut mereka dengan roti. Mereka telah mengasaskan soviet-soviet – iaitu majlis-majlis yang terdiri daripada wakil-wakil pekerja. Di kilang-kilang besar, majlis-majlis pekerja tersebut telah mencabar kuasa pihak pengurus. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Secara umumnya, kini terdapat dua kerajaan. Satu mendakwa bahawa ia mentadbir negera melalui cara-cara pentadbiran lama, sambil yang satu lagi telah menunjukkan kawalan ke atas tempat-tempat bekerja dan jalan raya. Keadaan ini merupakan keadaan yang dirujuk kepada oleh pihak Marxsis sebagai ‘dwi-kuasa.’&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Setelah membina satu revolusi, para pekerja tidak menjangka bahawa mereka terpaksa membina revolusi baru. Pada mulanya, mereka telah beralih kepada parti-parti sosialis sederhana, yang berjanji untuk meletak tekanan pada bahu Kerajaan Peralihan. Tetapi pemerintah-pemerintah baru tidak dapat memenuhi tuntutan-tuntutan asas rakyat. Seluruh struktur masyarakat terus mereput. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Pada tahun itu, sekurang-kurangnya dua juta orang askar telah meninggalkan tentera. Seluruh unit askar telah meletakkan senjata, menyerang keretapi, menaiki bumbung keretapi dan membuang air kecil ke dalam bahagian-bahagian keretapi yang digunakan oleh golongan kaya. Mereka telah membawa semangat revolusioner baru kembali ke kawasan desa. Rumah-rumah pihak pemilik tanah diserang dan dihancurkan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Persoalannya adalah: siapakah yang mentadbir masyarakat? Ia merupakan pertempuran yang semakin bertumbuh di antara pihak pemilik tanah lama serta pemilik-pemilik kilang, dengan kuasa-kuasa kerajaan di sebalik mereka, menentang golongan pekerja yang marah. Di beberapa kilang, para pekerja telah membuang pengurus kilang ke dalam kereta sorong dan membuangnya di luar pagar kilang. Apabila pegawai-pegawai tentera sayap kanan mencuba merampas kuasa, para pekerja telah berjuang. Pihak pekerja keretapi telah mengalihkan keretapi-keretapi yang membawa pegawai-pegawai itu dan membantu merosakkan percubaan rampasan kuasa. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Terdapatnya tiga parti sosialis utama pada masa itu. Yang paling militan daripada mereka, iaitu Parti Bolshevik, telah bangkit sebagai parti yang berkuasa. Pada permulaan tahun itu, ia mempunyai lebih kurang 4,000 ahli – menjelang akhir tahun itu, mungkin 250,000 ahli. Tidak sesiapa yang mengetahui jumlah sebenar. Ahli-ahli parti itu mempunyai urusan yang lebih penting daripada menyimpan senarai keahlian! Di satu bandar, parti itu telah bertumbuh dari sepuluh ahli menjadi 5,000. Menjelang bulan Julai, pihak Bolshevik telah mengeluarkan 41 suratkhabar dan jurnal. Namun, mereka masih ditindas, dengan pemenjaraan dan penahanan ahli-ahli utama. Tidak terdapatnya kerisauan bahawa orang telah menjadi ahli parti tersebut untuk melanjutkan kerjaya mereka.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Pihak Bolshevik bukanlah sebuah kumpulan rapat yang melompat apabila Lenin mengarah mereka untuk melompat. Lenin terpaksa berjuang untuk meyakinkan kepimpinan parti tersebut, iaiti majlis pusat, bahawa ia bukanlah mustahil untuk bersedia demi pengambilan kuasa. Ini bukanlah perbincangan-perbincangan sulit. Di jalan-jalan raya, para pekerja sedang membaca risalah Lenin bertajuk &lt;i&gt;Dapatkah Pihak Bolshevik Merampas Kuasa Kerajaan?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Lenin bukanlah seorang diktator zalim. Dia juga telah membuat kesilapan dan terpaksa dibetulkan oleh komrad-komradnya. Pada mulanya, dia ingin memanggil pemberontakan dengan nama parti. Ia sudah pasti menjadi kesilapan besar, kerana ramai pekerja dan askar belum lagi memberikan sokongan kepada pihak Bolshevik. Trotsky telah meyakinkan Lenin bahawa kebangkitan itu patut dipanggil dengan nama soviet-soviet, yang mewakili aliran-aliran berbeza dalam gerakan pekerja.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Pihak Bolshevik bersedia untuk bekerjasama dengan kumpulan-kumpulan politik lain yang berkongsi matlamat-matlamat utama mereka. Terdapatnya empat orang anarkis pada Majlis Revolusioner Ketenteraan yang mengaturkan pemberontakan di Petrograd. Tetapi apabila Kerajaan Peralihan membuat rancangan pada bulan Oktober untuk mencuba menghapuskan ancaman yang dihadapkan oleh gerakan revolusioner, nilai sebuah parti berpusat yang dapat bertindak dengan cepat dan mengatur tindakan telah menjadi jelas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Kerajaan Peralihan telah timbang dalam masa beberapa jam. Pemimpinnya, iaitu Kerensky, telah melarikan diri. Pada awal tahun 1960-an, dia seringkali dilihat di tempat minuman Kesatuan Universiti Oxford, merungut mengenai kehidupannya yang dibazirkan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Revolusi tersebut merupakan inspirasi kepada para pekerja di seluruh dunia. Kuasa-kuasa Barat telah membawa pengakhiran kepada Perang Dunia Pertama dengan laju agar mereka dapat menyerang musuh bersama, iaitu Rusia. Lebih satu dozen tentera asing telah menyerang Rusia dan bekerjasama dengan pihak reaksioner di Rusia dalam perang saudara. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Jerman, sebuah kuasa perindustrian utama pada masa itu, kelihatan seperti sedia untuk revolusi di antara tahun 1919 dan 1923. Tetapi Parti Komunis, yang didirikan selepas revolusi di Rusia, kekurangan pengalaman, kemahiran politik dan keyakinan seperti pihak Bolshevik. Revolusi di Jerman telah gagal. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Akhirnya, seorang pemimpin Bolshevik yang hanya memainkan peranan kecil pada tahun 1917, iaitu Stalin, telah bangkit ke puncah parti itu. Dia telah menghantar kebanyakan bekas komrad-nya untuk dibunuh, dan telah mendirikan sebuah rejim zalim lagi korupse yang telah mengheret nama komunisme ke dalam lumpur. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;Tetapi bagi mereka yang terus berjuang demi kuasa pekerja dan sosialisme sejati, Oktober 1917 kekal sebagai contoh revolusi. Walau betapa pendeknya kejayaan tersebut, ia merupakan contoh berjuta-juta pekerja biasa mengambil kehidupan mereka ke dalam tangan sendiri. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">1</thr:total></item><item><title>Sabah &amp; Sarawak SaSa Superblog - Together we amplify our voices: Sarawak Blog: Sasa Superblog List</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2010/10/sabah-sarawak-sasa-superblog-together.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Tue, 12 Oct 2010 10:28:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-6890996539256602556</guid><description>&lt;a href="http://sasasuperblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/sarawak-blog-list.html#comments"&gt;Sabah &amp;amp; Sarawak SaSa Superblog - Together we amplify our voices: Sarawak Blog: Sasa Superblog List&lt;/a&gt;</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>KARL MARX AND FIDEL ENGELS</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2010/09/karl-marx-and-fidel-engels.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Sat, 25 Sep 2010 10:41:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-2367040860705388857</guid><description>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKSXFQ4jNAuPRmN94xBv-RHlfyZEAoqMCo3NbV87XkSCCRtYpzbgGPLaULVaVOOaYmeHPm_Rk8m_Dn1RAvtT4C5_Yg3LLsCE8BuAlJfBB1npyjZ5UMLaL-AxmduPz8PL1JKPaUG7PE5Bk/s1600/AlexanderplatzMarxEngels.JPG"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485115835422852290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKSXFQ4jNAuPRmN94xBv-RHlfyZEAoqMCo3NbV87XkSCCRtYpzbgGPLaULVaVOOaYmeHPm_Rk8m_Dn1RAvtT4C5_Yg3LLsCE8BuAlJfBB1npyjZ5UMLaL-AxmduPz8PL1JKPaUG7PE5Bk/s320/AlexanderplatzMarxEngels.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 214px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 320px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Caption From the Picture : Statue of Marx and Engels in Alexanderplatz, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Berlin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; The statues acquired the unofficial nickname "the Pensioners," and were also said to be sitting on their suitcases waiting for permission to emigrate to the West.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Marx and Engels' work covers a wide range of topics and presents a complex analysis of history and society in terms of class relations. Followers of Marx and Engels have drawn on this work to propose a political and economic philosophy dubbed &lt;a href="http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Marxism" title="Marxism"&gt;Marxism&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
Nevertheless, there have been numerous debates among Marxists over how to interpret Marx's writings and how to apply his concepts to current events and conditions (and it is important to distinguish between "Marxism" and "what Marx believed."&lt;br /&gt;
Essentially, people use the word "Marxist" to describe those who rely on Marx's conceptual language (e.g. means of production, class, commodity) to understand capitalist and other societies, or to describe those who believe that a workers' revolution is the only means to a communist society.&lt;br /&gt;
Marxism has  influenced Christian thought, too, especially &lt;a href="http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Liberation_theology" title="Liberation theology"&gt;liberation theology&lt;/a&gt;, which argues in favor of God's special concern for, or bias towards, the poor and advocates that when the poor become conscious of their exploitation, they will then be empowered to demand and achieve their rights. Liberation theologians do not necessarily support violence as part of this process, although many have.&lt;br /&gt;
Six years after Marx's death, Engels and others founded the "Second International" as a base for continued political activism. This organization collapsed in 1914, in part because some members turned to Edward Bernstein's "&lt;a href="http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Evolution" title="Evolution"&gt;evolutionary&lt;/a&gt;" socialism, and in part because of  divisions precipitated by &lt;a href="http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/World_War_I" title="World War I"&gt;World War I&lt;/a&gt;.</description><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKSXFQ4jNAuPRmN94xBv-RHlfyZEAoqMCo3NbV87XkSCCRtYpzbgGPLaULVaVOOaYmeHPm_Rk8m_Dn1RAvtT4C5_Yg3LLsCE8BuAlJfBB1npyjZ5UMLaL-AxmduPz8PL1JKPaUG7PE5Bk/s72-c/AlexanderplatzMarxEngels.JPG" width="72"/><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>PARAKU-PGRS : KAMBING HITAM PASKA KONFRONTASI RI - MALAYSIA</title><link>http://rabandayakbaru.blogspot.com/2010/09/paraku-pgrs-kambing-hitam-paska.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Unknown)</author><pubDate>Wed, 22 Sep 2010 13:16:00 +0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502291298580560959.post-4251004994028389058</guid><description>&lt;div class="post-header"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWIh4SJiqj3E-Y292cwFeJ55mWdCF2sTg8sPZ4lqk6DeAr7691d5EG5vn384wgBnJDwl8w9BuwSBQNG3Czt1QPHWX4UIE0mOLBQIYg8nCD64Vj6f9qqhZzO4JgiMFDULcMeebXPsWTZSI/s1600-h/Peta+Kalimantan-1.gif" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402561788401327266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWIh4SJiqj3E-Y292cwFeJ55mWdCF2sTg8sPZ4lqk6DeAr7691d5EG5vn384wgBnJDwl8w9BuwSBQNG3Czt1QPHWX4UIE0mOLBQIYg8nCD64Vj6f9qqhZzO4JgiMFDULcMeebXPsWTZSI/s200/Peta+Kalimantan-1.gif" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 200px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 192px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Habis manis sepah dibuang. Itulah nasib tragis ratusan gerilyawan &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Pasukan Rakyat Kalimantan Utara atau Paraku-Pasukan Gerakan Rakyat sarawak atau PGRS &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;dukungan intelijen militer Indonesia semasa Presiden Soekarno mencanangkan konfrontasi menentang pembentukan Malaysia tahun 1963. Ketika Soekarno menyatakan "Ganyang Malaysia" tanggal 27 Juli 1963, relawan Indonesia dan gerilyawan Paraku-PGRS menjadi Pahlawan Indonesia.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Paraku-PGRS menjadi momok menghantui pasukan Malaysia, Brunei, Inggris, dan Australia saat bergerilya di perbatasan Kalimantan Barat-Sarawak. Ketika Soeharto tampil sebagai penguasa yang berdamai dengan Malaysia, Paraku-PGRS pun digempur habis dan disertai kerusuhan anti Tionghoa di Kalimantan Barat tahun 1967 sebagai harga rekonsiliasi Jakarta - Kuala Lumpur.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Paraku-PGRS terlupakan dalam lembaran sejarah seiring kukuhnya Orde Baru dan baru muncul kembali dalam pembicaraan Indonesia-Malaysia dalam Joint Border Comitee (JBC) di Kuala Lumpur awal Desember 2007.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Peneliti kekerasan terhadap Tionghoa, Benny Subianto, menjelaskan, ada benang merah dalam pemberantasan Paraku-PGRS dan kekerasan terhadap penduduk Tionghoa di Kalimantan Barat yang dikenal sebagai peristiwa &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman; font-weight: bold;"&gt;"Mangkok Merah"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;"Demi menghabisi Paraku-PGRS akhirnya dikondisikan kerusuhan anti Tionghoa. Sebelumnya Dayak, Melayu, dan Tionghoa hidup bersama secara damai di Kalimantan Barat," kata Benny.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Keberadaan Paraku-PGRS diakui sebagai buah karya kebijakan militer Indonesia. Buku Sejarah TNI Jilid IV (1966-1983) halaman 116-125 mencatat embrio Paraku-PGRS adalah 850 pemuda Cina Serawak yang menyeberang ke daerah RI saat terjadi konfrontasi dengan Malaysia.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Buku Sejarah TNI menyebut mereka adalah orang-orang Cina pro Komunis. Pemerintah RI melatih dan mempersenjatai mereka secara militer dalam rangka Konfrontasi Indonesia-Malaysia.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Lebih lanjut dijelaskan, mereka dibagi menjadi dua kesatuan, yaitu Pasukan Gerilya Rakyat Serawak (PGRS) dan Pasukan Rakyat Kalimantan Utara (Paraku). Kedua pasukan dikoordinir oleh Brigadir Jendral TNI Suparjo, pejabat Panglima Komando Tempur IV Mandau, berpusat di Bengkayan, Kalimantan Barat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Bersama relawan dari Indonesia, Paraku-PGRS yang juga menghimpun Suku Melayu dan Dayak berulangkali menyusup wilayah Serawak dan bahkan Brunei. Salah satu tokoh Revolusi Brunei tahun 1962, Doktor Azhari, yang juga pimpinan Partai Rakyat Brunei diketahui dekat dengan kubu gerilyawan ini.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Benny Subianto dalam laporan ilmiah itu menjelaskan, banyak pemuda Tionghoa di Sabah, Serawak, dan Brunei menolak pendirian Malaysia karena takut dominasi Melayu terhadap wilayah Sabah, Serawak, dan Brunei.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Gerilyawan Paraku-PGRS dalam laporan Herbert Feith di Far Eastern Economic Review (FEER) edisi 59 tanggal 21-27 Januari 1968 dilukiskan hidup bagai ikan di tengah air terutama di antara masyarakat Tionghoa Kalimantan Barat yang waktu itu hidup tersebar di pedalaman.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Benny Subianto menambahkan betapa gerilyawan Paraku-PGRS dan relawan Indonesia menghantui wilayah perbatasan. Bahkan, mereka nyaris menghancurkan garnisun 1/2 British Gurkha Rifles (1/2 GR) dalam serangan terhadap distrik Long Jawi (sekitar 120 kilometer sebelah barat Long Nawang, Kalimantan Timur). Selama berbulan-bulan mereka juga menghantui jalan darat Tebedu-Serian-Kuching (dekat pos perbatasan Darat Entikong) selama berbulan-bulan pada paruh pertama tahun 1964.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
JP Cross dalam buku &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;A face Like A Chicken Backside-An Unconventional Soldier In Malaya and Borneo 1948-1971&lt;/span&gt; halaman 150-151 mencatat betapa serangan relawan Indonesia di Long Jawi tanggal 28 September 1963 menewaskan operator radio, beberapa prajurit Gurkha, dan Pandu Perbatasan (Border Scout). Long Jawi sempat dikuasai sebelum akhirnya Pasukan Gurkha menyerang balik setelah mendapat bala bantuan.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Di balik perjuangan Paraku-PGRS dan relawan Indonesia, sebagian besar operasi militer selama konfrontasi tidak mencapai hasil memuaskan. Mantan Panglima Komando Daerah Militer (Kodam) Tanjung Pura Soeharyo alias Haryo Kecik dalam memoirnya mencatat, gerakan pasukan dan gerilyawan di wilayah Kalimantan selalu bocor dan diketahui lawan. Menurut Soeharyo, kebocoran justru terjadi di tubuh militer dari Jakarta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Adapun dalam laporan ilmiah Benny Subianto disebutkan operasi Paraku-PGRS dan relawan tidak mendapat dukungan penuh dari Angkatan Darat (AD) yang dikenal sebagai kubu anti komunis semasa konfrontasi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Setelah Jakarta-Kuala Lumpur berdamai melalui diplomasi di Bangkok, Paraku-PGRS harus diberantas sebagai musuh bersama. Itulah ironi sejarah yang terlupakan ketika kawan harus berubah menjadi kambing hitam/lawan (Disadur dari tulisan Iwan Santosa)&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
