Nick Kelesau- Spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization, Baram.
*Forest Guardians of Baram: Penan Community’s Struggle Against Logging and Palm Oil Plantations*
According to Nick, the majority of the Penan people involved in the UBFA area are sad because the project was canceled by the Sarawak Forestry Department. We believe it is a good collaboration involving several foreign countries, domestic and foreign NGOs, state and central government agencies including the Sarawak and Malaysian governments.  We believe that the combination and experience of several parties can be used to preserve the forest in addition to improving the socio-economic status of the Penan people.  Even though it has been canceled we will still continue on a small scale as far as we can. In some Penan settlements such as Long Lamai, Long Kerong, Selungo and Long Main. We have successfully opened a nursery to plant trees from the native spices of the Borneo forest. Although prevented by the forest department. But we don't care. We plant trees to save forests, instead of cutting down trees like Borneoland Timber does at Data Bila. Indeed our original plan to save the rest of our logged forest. We named it as Taman Damai Baram - before the idea of UBFA was born. Regarding the STA claim accusing us of making false claims that millions of native forests will be destroyed and burned for tree planting projects, palm oil plantations and logging. I invited the STA to come down to Baram and see for themselves the damage caused by palm oil plantations and logging.  STA CEO Annie Ting spoke only from an air-conditioned office in Kuching. If he wants to see the truth please visit Baram and we will show you the incredible damage done by these logging and plantation companies. Our call for the EU to classify Sarawak/Malaysia as a high-risk state under the Anti-Deforestation regulations is correct - because we see with our own eyes the damage around us and we can prove our claims - Nick Kelesau

Iswardy Morni, Malaysian Political Analyst.
*High Court's Verdict: Najib Razak Must Answer for 1MDB Scandal as Defense Begins*
Today the Kuala Lumpur High Court ordered Najib Razak to defend himself - on all 25 charges he faced. That is 21 charges of money laundering and 4 charges of misuse of power involving funds of 1mdb rm2.3 billion. The court ruled that the prosecution succeeded in establishing a prima facie case after calling 50 witnesses and the trial lasted for five years. Iswardy explained that the prosecution succeeded in showing the close relationship between Najib and Jho Low, the testimony of the witnesses was consistent and the witnesses had no motive to trap Najib who was the Prime Minister at the time.
Najib's main lawyer - Mohammad Shafie Abdullah said - for now his side seems to be a total loser, not even 1 point was given to us. This is an extraordinary history throughout my time as a brilliant lawyer. Iswardy emphasized that- this is not a matter of a brilliant lawyer or not. It is closely related to the facts of the case. The money goes into Najib's account. Najib admitted that it was his account, but he said that he did not know it was 1mdb money. Najib claimed that the money was a donation from the Arab King. Iswardy said that illegal funds going into the account and used for personal purposes is anoffence. Because the chronology of the trial is simple and because the facts of the case are clear, it is easy for the judge to make a decision. Asked why Anwar easily forgives Najib and is this PM Anwar's effort to strengthen UmNo which will also help PH win in the next General Election?. Iswardy thought that was too far. Anwar forgave Najib because he admitted his guilt. Anwar did not absolve Najib of all the charges and crimes he committed. According to Iswardy, if Najib is convicted of several more cases that will be tried. The total cumulative sentence that will be imposed on Najib may be hundreds of years. At that time, Najib was too old to be in politics.  The judge set December 2, 2024 for the defense phase hearing.

*Demanding Justice and Development: Bengoh Dam Relocated Villagers Stand Firm*
Jacklyn is the daughter of anti-dam activist Simo Sekam's brother. Because RFS failed to contact Simo for several days. We asked the younger generation - Jacklyn - about the state government's proposal to use the Bengoh dam to be used as a hydro dam while also supplying clean water to the people of Kuching City. According to Jacklyn- they don't really believe the media statement by Sarawak Premier Johari Openg at the Borneo Water and Wastewater Exhibition on 23 Oct 2024. The Premier said he would use the Bengoh dam to generate electricity in addition to building 12 more cascading dams. We do not believe it will happen. because the government's plan to build the Bengoh dam to supply clean water also failed. There hasn't been any water pipe connection from the Bengoh dam since it was completed - thus making the sacrifices of our previous move in vain.  The Bengoh dam project with a cost of rm310 million was originally to supply clean water to the people of Kuching City. 4 villages were relocated namely Kampung Semban, Rejoi/ Nyigol, Pain Bojong and Taba Sait village. 3 villages agreed to be placed in the resettlement area built by the government, while Rejoi village chose to move to higher ground by itself. But according to Jacklyn, those of us who do not follow the government's wishes are severely discriminated against. No help and facilities were given to us. There are no roads, electricity or telephone facilities in our village Nyigol. If the government is serious about developing the population, it must get our approval first with a convincing development plan. But we will not compromise on our customary land rights.</itunes:summary>

Ong Kian Ming, Former Serdang Member of Parliament.
*Kian Ming Critiques Najib’s Dishonest Confession on 1MDB*
Ong Kian Ming thought Najib's apology was dishonest because he only admitted to being cheated by Jho Low, not admitting to stealing, abetting and defrauding 1mdb money. Najib made the apology to draw sympathy from Malaysians. If Najib truly repents and honestly confesses his wrongdoing, according to Kian Ming- it would be better for him to admit his wrongdoing in court and accept whatever punishment the court will decide.  Najib can also help give information to recover the money of 1mdb and Najib should return the money he has stolen from 1mdb. According to Kian Ming again - Malaysia is not only a loss in terms of ringgit money, the country's reputation is tarnished, but political leaders and NGOs are heavily pressured during Najib's administration. Tony Puan, Rafizi Ramli were charged in court, their passports were seized and they were banned from going abroad. Prime Minister and Premier of Sarawak Johari Openg accepted Najib's apology. However, Kian Ming did not agree with the prime minister's actions - for forgiving Najib when the 1mdb case was still being tried. It will create subjudicial elements that may influence the court's decision, PM Anwar Ibrahim should not give any comments and remain neutral.

Dennis Along, Communications Director of the People's Justice Party, Baram
*Public Funds for Political Gain? RM60 Million Allocation Sparks Controversy*
In the triennial meeting of the PBB Bukit Saban Branch, Betong Parliament. PBB Bukit Saban Branch Chairman Deputy Premier of Sarawak Dauglas Unggah Embas said that PBB Bukit Saban Branch has received an allocation of rm60 million from the government. This is intended for party members to implement several agricultural economic projects such as the cultivation of Palm Oil, Rubber, Pepper, vegetables, animal husbandry and so on. According to Dauglas the PBB is getting stronger because of the undivided support of Party members. Commenting on the matter, Dennis Along said that it was clearly an abuse of power. Channeling taxpayers' money for the use of political parties to gain vote support. Dennis urged the MACC to immediately investigate Unggah for allegations of abuse of power such as the Jana Wibawa case involving former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin.

YB Tan Kar Hing, Member of Parliament for Gopeng and member of the Special Select Committee of Parliament related to Domestic Trade, Entrepreneurship, Cost of Living, and Agriculture
*Balancing Rice Production and Land Rights: Sarawak’s Agriculture Project Under Scrutiny*
YB Tan Kar Hing has commented on the proposal to increase white rice production in Malaysia. Sarawak is ready to release an initial capital of RM500 million and hopes to secure an additional RM500 million from the federal government. According to Kar Hing, this is a promising suggestion given that paddy cultivation areas in Peninsular Malaysia are becoming more limited, while Sabah and Sarawak still have fertile and extensive agricultural lands.
However, Kar Hing expressed concern, as previous similar projects had been proposed but failed, leaving the people of Sarawak worried. Furthermore, some of the areas targeted for development face conflicts over Native Customary Rights (NCR) land claims, and there is a lack of transparency in project implementation. Misappropriation of funds and agricultural grants is also a common issue. The Sarawak Premier stated that his political/DUN constituency in Gedong has the potential for hybrid rice cultivation, and a pilot project has already been implemented in Lubok Punggol, Gedong. In total, Gedong alone could provide 700,000 hectares of fertile land for rice cultivation, along with other areas such as Tanjung Bijat in Sri Aman, Sepaoh in Betong, and Tanjong Burong in Lundu.
The Premier of Sarawak identified constituencies within the state with potential for development. However, Kar Hing emphasized that the state government holds full authority over land matters. A special select committee will be responsible for monitoring each project undertaken with joint venture funds from the state and federal governments. It is indeed the committee's duty to ensure that government grants and projects meet their objectives.
Residents in the interior of Sarawak have often complained that they are supplied with hill paddy fertilizer, despite not cultivating rice or applying for such assistance. Kar Hing explained that the potential implementation of the rice cultivation project in Sarawak may include areas recommended by the Sarawak GPS government, as well as the exploration of hill paddy cultivation in highland areas such as Baram and Bario. However, it is still uncertain whether the federal government will approve the RM500 million requested by the Sarawak state government.

Madeline Jok, Retired Teacher from Long Panai, Baram and Willie Kajan, Resident of Tering Long Terawan
*Flooding and Destruction: Baram Villagers Eye Legal Action Against Timber Giants*
After being hit by floods twice in October 2024, finally the residents of Long Panai were given help by the Sarawak government in the form of 2 bags of 5kg rice, 2 pcs maggie noodles, 2 pcs cooking oil, 2 pcs wheat flour, 2 pcs salt, 2 pcs sugar, 2 pcs of tea and 2 pcs of biscuits. We call this help maggie mee. Just to release a cough on the stairs only. Our real loss is that our lives are disrupted and our crops and livestock die. We have planned to move to higher ground. But this all comes at a high cost. Leveling house sites, building roads to new longhouses and buying new house building equipment. Whichever logging company caused us to move must be responsible for helping us. We are thinking of moving because we have been flooded too often and our daily life has been disrupted. Asked if the villagers know, why there are always big floods?. According to Cikgu Medeline all residents know that it is caused by uncontrolled logging and palm oil plantation activities. However, Willie Kajan from Long Terawan, Mulu- is of the opinion that the time has come for the people of Baram to dare to sue the logging and plantation companies that are the cause of these frequent floods. Willie also hopes that YB GPS together with the residents will sue the timber companies that make millions of ringgit but cause hardship to the rural residents in the long term. Baram residents can sue and claim damages - Willie Kajan said.

Chales Tau, Resident of Asmadi Agau Longhouse, Long Urun, Belaga
*Long Urun’s Irony: Solar Power Brings Relief, But National Grid and Roads Still Out of Reach*
Long Urun is the settlement area of 18 Kenyah and Penan communities. Rumah Panjang Asmadi Agau is one of them. Since decades ago the community of Long Urun lived in poverty. They have only been able to get electricity for the past 3 years through an experimental hybrid solar project by the SEB company. Ironically, the longhouse in Long Urun is only a 2-hour drive to the Bakun dam. In a frugal way, use only basic electrical tools. This solar project is indeed beneficial. But their question is, why are we not connected to the national grid to get a more stable and sufficient electricity supply. We also do not have paved roads from the government here. We only use oil palm plantations Shin Yang Plantation and Urun Plantation. Water supply for daily use is using a nearby creek. We hope that the government will be able to speed up the construction of infrastructure facilities to our area in Long Urun. There is no logging activity in our area. The wood has been cut down. What exists now is a land monopoly by oil palm plantation companies. We are worried that in the long term our rivers will be polluted by manufacturing and plantation activities.

*Baram Residents Question Multi-Million Ringgit Contract for Logging Companies to Repair Roads*
A video of YB Dennis Angau's speech as Telang Usan, Baram assemblyman is currently going viral. In a meeting with the residents of Baram, YB Dennis said - he, Datu Gerawat Gala Mulu assemblyman, YB Datu Pengguang Marudi assemblyman and member of Parliament Anyie Ngau receive dozens of complaints every day from Baram residents related to the problem of damaged roads, landslides, broken bridges and various other things. road problems in Baram. So the government took an experimental approach to appoint the famous conglomerate company Samling, Double Dynasty Group and BHT Interprise Marudi to repair and maintain the log roads in Baram, and they will be paid by the Sarawak government. According to Dominic- all Baram residents are happy when the road is repaired. But pouring millions of dollars into improving and maintaining log roads is a futile effort. The government should start building paved roads to rural areas. Although it is a little late, but the effect will be better. The road is well prepared and can be used for a long period of time. Another question is why a logging company was given a multi-million ringgit contract. We the people of Baram question where the money from the Forest Concession Fund that was established 40 years ago is going, which is said to collect money from logging for the purpose of building roads and progress for rural residents. When the logging company first wanted to enter our village of Long Tungan in 1994. They persuaded us that the logging company would contribute RM1 for every 1 ton of logs cut down and put into the fund. Now use the money from this fund to build roads to the interior of Sarawak. Now we demand that YBYB GPS ask in the Sarawak state assembly conference, where does the forest concession trust fund money go?

Dennis Along- Political and Environmental Activist from Long Terawan Mulu, Baram.
*Bribery and Environmental Damage: Sarawak Premier Accused of Supporting Illegal Logging in Penan Lands*
Following the cancellation of UBFA, a warning banner is being circulated by the media - showing 11 penan men and 2 children. Banner written, to BMF, Keruan and Roland Engan, Kaum Penan in Ba Data If we don't want you to interfere in the affairs of the forest in our village. We want to move forward and welcome the efforts of the Premier of Sarawak and the logging company to bring development to our village. According to Dennis- the voice like in the banner is the voice of the Penan minority group that was bribed by GPS and the logging company. Their number is less than 20 people. I think Premier Johari Openg is worse than Adenan Satem. During his short administration- Adenan announced that no more logging licenses would be issued. Development matters are not the work of logging companies. Instead it is the responsibility of the ruling government. There is no evidence anywhere in the baram of any development made by logging companies. What the log companies have been doing all this time is damaging the environment and after the logs are taken away. Log roads are left damaged and crumbling.
The native people should now take steps to sue the logging company for environmental crimes and report to the SPRM that Sarawak Premier Johari Openg is involved in the misuse of power to allow Borneoland Timber to log in the Penan forest reserve, which is an activity opposed by the majority of the Penan people. In terms of politics, the people were asked not to vote for GPS again and the people demanded an investigation into the Forest Revenue Fund established during the era of Chief Minister Tun Rahman Yakob's administration. Where the timber proceeds are collected and supposedly used for development. Actually according to Dennis the cancellation of the UBFA because of the illegal logging activities by Borneoland Timber supported by the Sarawak Forest Department was exposed and this is an embarrassment to the administration of Premier Johari Openg. As a result, they canceled UBFA.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along- Political and Environmental Activist from Long Terawan Mulu, Baram.
*Bribery and Environmental Damage: Sarawak Premier Accused of Supporting Illegal Logging in Penan Lands*
Following the cancellation of UBFA, a warning banner is being circulated by the media - showing 11 penan men and 2 children. Banner written, to BMF, Keruan and Roland Engan, Kaum Penan in Ba Data If we don't want you to interfere in the affairs of the forest in our village. We want to move forward and welcome the efforts of the Premier of Sarawak and the logging company to bring development to our village. According to Dennis- the voice like in the banner is the voice of the Penan minority group that was bribed by GPS and the logging company. Their number is less than 20 people. I think Premier Johari Openg is worse than Adenan Satem. During his short administration- Adenan announced that no more logging licenses would be issued. Development matters are not the work of logging companies. Instead it is the responsibility of the ruling government. There is no evidence anywhere in the baram of any development made by logging companies. What the log companies have been doing all this time is damaging the environment and after the logs are taken away. Log roads are left damaged and crumbling.
The native people should now take steps to sue the logging company for environmental crimes and report to the SPRM that Sarawak Premier Johari Openg is involved in the misuse of power to allow Borneoland Timber to log in the Penan forest reserve, which is an activity opposed by the majority of the Penan people.

Celine Lim, Managing Director of Save Rivers.
*Save Rivers and NGOs Raise Concerns Over UBFA Cancellation, Demand Transparency*
The cancellation of the UBFA Joint Venture project was announced a few hours before the UBFA steering committee meeting scheduled to take place in Miri, Sarawak. According to Celine, the meeting that was supposed to take place at 9 am-9/10/2024 had to be postponed to 2 pm to await the arrival of the group from Hulu Baram that was stranded due to a landslide. But the meeting has not yet started at 2 pm. The media has reported that the Director of the Forest Department has canceled the UBFA project. This means that ITTO sponsored UBFA projects and funds from ITTO member countries have been cancelled. However, the Sarawak Forest Department still wants to continue the project in their own way. Asked what was the reason for the cancellation. The director of the forest department informed that the continuous disturbance from NGOs, demonstrations from a group of Penan people, especially the logging dispute in Ba Data Bila. But for us according to Celine, that is part of the process of transparency and accountability. If there is an objection, then the UBFA Project management should provide an explanation. Save Rivers is also of the view that we will also continue the project by working closely with the local population. But what worries us is the dispute at Ba Data Bila. When it was proven that illegal logging by Borneoland Timber had occurred with several other offenses, the Sarawak Forest Department denied it. With such an attitude of the Forest Department. We are very worried about the virgin forest area in Ba Data Bila which needs to be saved from illegal logging. We feel aggrieved by the attitude of the Sarawak forest department which from the beginning of the project did not want to cooperate and did not want to share information with the steering committee.

Andrew Paul, General Secretary of SADIA
*Betrayed by Authorities: MACC Investigation Reveals Forest Department Corruption*
Andrew shared information about the illegal logging case that happened in the Lijan Julau river. A company called Majistic Sdn.Bhd has several times entered the forest area in the Lijan river in Julau. But protested by the villagers. However, the third entry was unsuccessfully contested because the company stated that they had obtained a valid logging license. Residents checked with the Sibu forest department, and forest department officials confirmed that indeed the company had been awarded a logging license in the Lijan river area. Because the population is not satisfied, even though it has been protested. But a fixed log license is also issued. Residents of 15 longhouses in the Lijan river made a report to sprm in Kuching. After being investigated by MACC - it was proven that the company did not have a logging license. The officer in the forest department referred to turned out to be lying. SPRM's investigation also proved that 4 house harvesters/village heads admitted to receiving rm300 per month to agree to logging. The residents were very angry and dissatisfied because the company, despite objections, still brought in logging machinery. Even if they are given a logging license, permission from the villagers is still required. Residents submit this case for SPRM investigation and hope that all parties involved will be prosecuted and punished. For now the logging works have been stopped and all the logging machines have been taken out - said Andrew Paul.</itunes:summary>

Dok Laing- Residents of Penang Long Tanyit, Belaga and Gereng Jadum- Residents of Penan Metalun, Murum
*Shin Yang Logging Camps Become the Only Source of Overpriced Essentials for Penan Villagers*
Puan Dok Laing is a penan from Long Tanyit in the Linau river in Belaga. The journey from Belaga to Long Tanyit takes 9 hours by road using 4-wheel drive. Through the Shin Yang logging area. Doc informed that the prices of basic necessities in his village and some nearby villages are very expensive. They had to buy rice, flour, cooking oil and other necessities at a canteen in Shin Yang Abit Camp. This is a camp built by Shin Yang specifically to process reclaimed wood into plywood. Here, the cheapest price for a 10kg bag of rice is RM45. Some are rm50, rm60 to rm70 depending on the brand. LPG gas barrel price rm45. The price of daily necessities here is twice as expensive as the nearby town of Bintulu or Belaga.
Asked whether the government allocated RM225 million in subsidies for companies to send 7 types of basic necessities to rural areas so that the prices remain cheap like in other places. According to Mrs. Doc. Indeed, there are goods like that that reach our village. But not much and not enough for the population. There are up to 20 rice combs, while we have 200 families in Long Tanyit. So is financial assistance to poor families. Some get rm300, rm400 and some get rm600 once they get it. But to withdraw the money from a nearby bank requires an expensive fare. To go to Belaga the return cost for one person is rm200 and to go to Bintulu is rm250. The aid given by the government is used up to pay the fare only. We hope in the budget that will be presented by the prime minister. The problems we face will be addressed. The story from Gereng Jadum is more or less the same as told by Puan Dok. Metalun residents buy food items at Shin Yang's Majumas Logging Camp. It's expensive, but we have no choice. To go to the nearest town - the cost of transportation is very high - said Gereng. Unfortunately in our village the sale of subsidized goods has been stopped since 3 years ago. We don't know why. We ask the government again to supply the grocery stores in the village with subsidized goods to make our lives easier. The price of a subsidized LPG Gas barrel is rm26.60.  but sold for Rm45 at Abit Camp Shin Yang.

-------------

Nick Kelesau- Spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization
*Penan Community Threatened Amid UBFA Logging Controversy*
Nick Kelesau stated that the application by Sarawak Forest Department Director Datuk Hamden Mohammad to cancel or terminate the UBFA project is a one-sided statement. He emphasized that even if the project is cancelled, some NGOs and the local Penan community, including his side, will still continue their efforts. Nick highlighted the importance of separating political affairs from environmental matters.
Referring to the incident of logging in Ba Data Bila, Nick mentioned that several penghulu (village heads) and Pemanca (community leaders) met with Sarawak Premier Johari Openg to report that Borneoland Timber Sdn. Bhd., the company logging in the Ba Data Bila area, possessed a valid logging license. The company promised to build roads, bridges, and houses for the Penan people. However, it was later proven that the company employed foreign workers without valid work permits and conducted logging activities in the Ba Data Bila area, which is prohibited because it falls within the UBFA area.
Nick pointed out that Borneoland gained the support of some penghulu, Pemanca, and Penan residents by offering monetary incentives. He expressed hope that the incident at Ba Data Bila would not be used as a reason to cancel the UBFA project. Instead, he called for all stakeholders to make a unanimous decision that benefits forest conservation in the UBFA in the long term. Nick stressed that logging in the UBFA area should be entirely prohibited and should receive full support from the Sarawak government and the Forest Department. He condemned the actions of Borneoland and urged the authorities to take severe action against the company.
Additionally, Nick revealed that the Penan people were threatened with losing the opportunity to be appointed as tribal leaders, penghulu, Pemanca, or village heads if they cooperated with NGOs involved in the UBFA project. He condemned such political threats, labeling them as unhealthy and detrimental to the collective effort to protect the environment.

John Bara, Uma Akeh Baram
*A Call to Save Baram: John Bara Blames Logging for Floods and Landslides*
John bara explained that there are some longhouses in Baram flooded and there are some others that are still safe, even though the floodwaters are close to the longhouses. According to John, the long houses in the Batang Baram Main River have not yet been flooded, but the 2 tributaries of Baram, Tinjar and Tutoh, are currently flooded, namely Long Panai (Tutoh River) and Long Loyang (Tinjar River). In general, floods are becoming more frequent recently. Floods, landslides and unusually heavy rains have become a new phenomenon in Baram. Although there is no comprehensive study related to the real cause of climate change. We the people of Baram believe that it is due to massive logging for over 5 decades, coupled with commercial oil palm plantations and sand mining along the Baram river. For example in Long Ekang (Peter Kalang's longhouse) landslides along the river bank toppled the Long Ekang church and now Long Ekang's longhouse is just waiting to be washed away by landslides. This all happened because of human greed. The solution - stop logging and also stop granting commercial palm oil licenses. Long Ekang is a clear example. There is extensive sand mining and palm oil plantations up to the longhouse area - it is worked by the Pelita Ekang Banyok plantation company - in collaboration with the villagers. Maybe the villagers will get money. But their longhouses were submerged/washed away by mud floods/collapses and soil erosion. I appeal to the government and YBYB GPS to help the flood victims, because the people are watching you. The people will judge you during the election- said John Bara.

*Where is YB Gerawat? Long Panai Flood Victims Struggle Without Aid*
Teacher Madeline reports that it has been the 4th day since Long Panai Baram village was hit by floods. But it is sad that there is no help from the Welfare Department or the district office. YB Kawasan Datuk Gerawat Gala (GPS) - don't know where he is. Directly there is no heart to help us - said Cikgu Madeline. During our election this was a strong supporter and gave him victory. But when we're in this kind of trouble, he doesn't appear at all. While RFS interviewed Ms. Madeline. He is standing on the water - calf level. Three blocks of long houses in long panai with 132 doors were flooded on the ground floor and residents unloaded their goods upstairs. If the water rises again. We don't know where to run, said Cikgu Madeline Jok. Last year the village of Long Panai was hit by floods 7 times. But this year is a little less. We request YB Gerawat, the welfare department and related parties to come and send us food aid. Because in a little while our rice supply will run out. Not only were our lives threatened, our livestock and farms were flooded. In peninsular Malaysia when there is a flood disaster. Aid was quickly received and cash aid was also given to residents to ease the burden of flood victims. The residents produced a video to inform the outside world of the flood disaster that submerged their village.

Licki Ngau, Residents of Long Bemang, Baram
*Landowners Seek Clarification on Compensation for Long Bemang Water Supply Project*
Yesterday, a group of Long Bemang Baram residents uploaded a video demanding compensation for landowners affected by the clean water supply project to Long Bemang village. Licki explained that the residents did not oppose the project but were simply asking for appropriate compensation. A few days earlier, YB Dennis Ngau had officiated the groundbreaking ceremony for the clean water supply project, which is being implemented by the Public Works Department. However, there has been no clarification on whether affected landowners will receive compensation, nor has there been any dialogue with the villagers. It seems as if their land is being taken without proper compensation. Licki urged YB Dennis to explain the process for compensation payments.
Licki also noted that two previous clean water supply projects had failed, forcing the residents to rely on rainwater as their drinking water source. While the community is eager for the project to be completed, they believe that compensation should be a priority as well. Long Bemang, a Kayan longhouse with 300 doors, and the nearby primary school are both in urgent need of clean water.

Dr John Brian, the Permanent Chairman of the PBDS Party
*Uniting for Change: John Brian’s Proposal for a PH Plus Coalition in Sarawak*
Dr John Brian recently expressed his thoughts regarding the upcoming Sarawak state election (PRN). He mentioned that he had read in the media about PKR contesting against GPS, and that DAP, as confirmed by Sarawak DAP Secretary Alan Ling See Kiong, would oppose SUPP in all the seats SUPP contests. 
In John Brian's view, this is a very positive development because elections require organized movements and careful planning. He noted that DAP will contest in their traditional areas, particularly in seats where the majority are Chinese, while PKR, as a multi-racial party, has the flexibility to compete in any seat. However, he emphasized that one of the largest and most influential voter groups is the Dayak Iban. 
According to him, the ideal approach to challenge GPS this time would be through cooperation under the PH Plus banner. He suggested that PH should collaborate with local parties that share similar policies, specifically mentioning PBDS. He believes that PH's strength would be enhanced by working with PBDS, as this would prevent GPS from accusing the coalition of being a "Malayan party," since PBDS is a local Sarawak party that advocates for the advancement of the Dayak people.
John Brian further remarked that Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) would not be suitable to join this coalition because PBK's goal of achieving Sarawak’s independence from Malaya is not aligned with the objectives of PKR, DAP, or PBDS. He asserted that the concept of PH Plus could attract local voters to support this coalition.
He also added that Madani's direct government candidates should be considered, particularly in areas where there are potential independent candidates who are not affiliated with DAP, PKR, or PBDS. In his opinion, this should be part of the opposition's strategy if they are serious about defeating GPS in the upcoming 13th Sarawak PRN.

George Laing- Resident of Uma Akeh Baram.
*PKR Baram Challenges GPS on Carbon Trading Campaign in Upcoming Briefing*
George announced that PKR Baram will give a briefing to the public on climate change and carbon trading on 6 Oct 2024 at wisma madani, Miri. The purpose of this briefing is to explain what are the pros and cons of carbon trading and what are the long-term effects. According to George, the GPS government should do this campaign because they are the ones who actively promote carbon trading.

George Laing- Resident of Uma Akeh Baram.
*PKR Baram Challenges GPS on Carbon Trading Campaign in Upcoming Briefing*
George announced that PKR Baram will give a briefing to the public on climate change and carbon trading on 6 Oct 2024 at wisma madani, Miri. The purpose of this briefing is to explain what are the pros and cons of carbon trading and what are the long-term effects. According to George, the GPS government should do this campaign because they are the ones who actively promote carbon trading. It's unfortunate that GPS currently uses retired Teachers and retired DOs along with logging company Samling Shin Yang - visiting longhouses to promote carbon trading. This timber company equips government pensioners with a small remuneration. Sarawak PKR also invited Sahabat Alam Malaysia to present their views in the briefing.</description>

Tr Panting ak Baling, Village Leader of Similajau Bintulu Agricultural Heritage Park.
*Standing Strong: How Tr Panting and Villagers Protected Their Land*
Tr Panting shared his happiness with all the villagers for successfully defending the oil palm and coffee plantation land they had been cultivating. This success was the result of cooperation between all parties involved — the villagers, SADIA, Suhakam, the Police, the former chief secretary of the Sarawak state government, and also RFS. The overseas-based RFS appeared to be quite influential and feared by the SFC. Now, the villagers were free to harvest palm fruit, with the price of a ton of fresh palm oil at RM700 and ground coffee selling for RM100 per kilogram. The villagers were relieved, as this provided some income to support their families.
The most recent incident occurred about three days ago when a group of five SFC officers, using three cars, attempted to erect a fence at the entrance to the plantation. The villagers, who were keeping watch at the blockade site, quickly discovered the officers. They stopped the three cars and confiscated all the car keys. The villagers contacted their head, TR Panting, who confronted the SFC officers. Tr Panting warned them that if the SFC made any further attempts to put up a fence or prevent residents from accessing their agricultural land, strict action would be taken. After the warning, the SFC officers and their cars were released. Since then, the villagers have been free to work in their gardens, and they continue to take turns keeping vigil at the blockade site.</itunes:summary>

Micheal Mering Jok, General Secretary of SCRIPS (Sarawak Indigenous Rights Association)
*Anger Grows as NCR Lands in Belaga Face Unlawful Invasion by Unknown Parties*
According to Micheal, SCRIPS is reviewing the complaints received by it from the villagers, particularly in Belaga, Murum, Baram and Mulu related to the invasion by unknown parties entering NCR customary land and allegedly making land measurements and mapping. They did not get permission from the villagers -they do not show any valid documents from the authorities/government. Micheal is convinced that these parties are looking for new sites for illegal logging on the NCR land of the residents as well as possibly looking for valuable metals/minerals to steal. It is more unfortunate that these parties are given the cooperation of tribal leaders and some villagers who want immediate financial compensation. There is a possibility that the YB of the area is also involved or government officials who work with the forest department or the department that issues logging or plantation licenses. I want to warn these intruders and thieves to stop this act, because the anger of the villagers has reached its peak. Avoid unwanted incidents. Micheal appealed to the government to tighten monitoring and act decisively against corrupt officials. Please act decisively - Said Micheal Jok. Micheal called on the public to report immediately if they see a glimpse of foreigners/outsiders who are supposedly carrying equipment to measure villagers' land for development projects. Report to us and we will investigate- Said Micheal Jok. Lately Kampung Long Bangan Belaga (Kampung Micheal Jok) and Kampung Una Sambop Belaga reported that their land was encroached by the company MM Golden and UU Green Sdn.BHd.

Voon Lee Shan, Lawyer expert on MA63
*MA63 Equality: Restructuring Parliamentary Seats for Sabah, Sarawak, and Malaya*
Voon Lee Shan expressed his views on a proposal put forth by four NGOs that are vocal about electoral reform—BERSIH, SARAWAK ROSE, TINDAK MALAYSIA, and ENGAGE. These NGOs suggested that one-third of the Senate seats in the Dewan Negara (Senate) be allocated to the Borneo states—Sabah and Sarawak—so they could veto any laws passed in the Dewan Rakyat (House of Representatives) that could affect the rights of Sabah and Sarawak.
However, Voon believes this is not an appropriate suggestion. In his opinion, the real power lies in the Dewan Rakyat. If Sabah and Sarawak are to have equal power, as agreed upon in the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63), then the number of seats in the Dewan Rakyat must be balanced. Currently, there are 222 seats in the Dewan Rakyat, but Sabah only has 25 seats, Sarawak 31, while the rest are in Malaya. According to Voon, the distribution should be restructured so that Sabah has 74 seats, Sarawak 74 seats, and Malaya 74 seats, keeping the total at 222. This, Voon argues, is the proposal that should be supported by all parties to restore the MA63 principle of political equality between Sabah, Sarawak, and Malaya.
He further adds that the appointment of Senators to the Dewan Negara is merely a reward for political party members who lost in elections or an appointment of intellectuals with specific expertise to assist the government in the cabinet. Voon's views align with those of 11 NGOs from Sarawak that oppose the SAMA Project (Stability and Accountability for Malaysia Project), which proposed that Sabah and Sarawak should have 35 Senators in the Dewan Negara to safeguard the interests of the two Borneo states. The SAMA Project's media statement was released on September 16, 2024, in conjunction with Malaysia Day.

Baginda Minda, Resident of Kapit and is a member of PKR who together established the People's Justice party since the first day of its establishment
*PM Anwar Ibrahim's Kapit Visit: A Turning Point for GPS-PH Cooperation?*
Baginda Minda commented on the impact of PMX Anwar Ibrahim's two-day visit to Kapit. According  Baginda, Anwar managed to erase all doubts about his ability all this time. Especially among Dayak voters, all this time GPS has been speculating that Anwar will not succeed in becoming prime minister. Anwar not only proved that he succeeded in becoming the prime minister, but the prime minister who was less than 2 years succeeded in driving the growth of Malaysia's economy. The average Kapit resident is happy with Anwar's presence - according to Baginda Minda. Anwar officiated several road and bridge projects and even more importantly officiated the groundbreaking ceremony for the Kapit Police Headquarters. All this time the police capit has no headquarters. Only depend on the small police station. Asked if it is possible that GPS and PH/PKR will work together in the election. I'm positive it will happen, based on the speech and cooperation shown, even if it's not liked by supporters of both parties. I noticed supporters, even the GPS minister and PKR supporters gave negative comments regarding cooperation in the election. But I am confident that when the party's leadership decides to cooperate in the election, the supporters will agree - said  Baginda Minda.  According to Baginda Minda,Anwar chose Kapit as the parliamentary area he visited because he was aware that Kapit/Hulu Rajang was far behind in development, even though it was the parliamentary area of Malaysia's founding father Tun Jugah, who was also the grandfather of works minister Alexander Nanta Linggi.  Baginda Minda called on the people of Sarawak to give 100% support to PMX and wait for the form of cooperation in the upcoming election.</itunes:summary>

Benjamin Lenjau, Resident of Uma Sambop Belaga
*Land Rights Violated: Uma Sambop Demands Government Action Against MM Golden and SOPB*
A few months ago, Benjamin spoke to RFS reporting the encroachment by the company MM Golden sdn.bhd and UU Greend Sdn.Bhd against the forest/land of the residents of Uma Sambop. In simple language, illegal logging occurs in ncr land areas. Both of these companies are linked to Malaysia's deputy minister of natural resources and environmental sustainability Huang Tiong Sii. Following that on 12 Sept 2024, Benjamin made an official report to Suhakam and a copy of the report to the police, sprm, the Sarawak premier's office, the prime minister's office and the Sarawak forest department. As a result of the report, the forest department confiscated some logs that were cut by the MM Golden company on Sept 24, 2024. However, Benjamin and the residents of Uma Sambop were not satisfied because no arrests and prosecutions were made against the owner of the MM Golden company. We the residents of Uma Sambop demand transparency and firmness from the authorities in law enforcement. We want in the near future there will be action against companies that illegally log and encroach on our land - said Benjamin Lenjau. Benjamin and the residents of Uma Sambop also demanded that the oil palm plantation company SOPB - pay compensation to the residents of Uma Sambop for opening an oil palm plantation on the land of Uma Sambop but until now they have not paid any compensation or damages.

Benjamin Lenjau, Resident of Uma Sambop Belaga
*Land Rights Violated: Uma Sambop Demands Government Action Against MM Golden and SOPB*
A few months ago, Benjamin spoke to RFS reporting the encroachment by the company MM Golden sdn.bhd and UU Greend Sdn.Bhd against the forest/land of the residents of Uma Sambop. In simple language, illegal logging occurs in ncr land areas. Both of these companies are linked to Malaysia's deputy minister of natural resources and environmental sustainability Huang Tiong Sii. Following that on 12 Sept 2024, Benjamin made an official report to Suhakam and a copy of the report to the police, sprm, the Sarawak premier's office, the prime minister's office and the Sarawak forest department. As a result of the report, the forest department confiscated some logs that were cut by the MM Golden company on Sept 24, 2024. However, Benjamin and the residents of Uma Sambop were not satisfied because no arrests and prosecutions were made against the owner of the MM Golden company. We the residents of Uma Sambop demand transparency and firmness from the authorities in law enforcement. We want in the near future there will be action against companies that illegally log and encroach on our land - said Benjamin Lenjau. Benjamin and the residents of Uma Sambop also demanded that the oil palm plantation company SOPB - pay compensation to the residents of Uma Sambop for opening an oil palm plantation on the land of Uma Sambop but until now they have not paid any compensation or damages.

Mandau ak Dinggat- Nanga Ingu Kabo, Saratok.
*The Saratok Equation: How GPS and Ali Biju Shape the Future of Iban Politics*
Mandau gives a brief overview of the Saratok parliament and the 3 duns included in this parliamentary area. The Dun concerned are Krian, Kelaka and Kabong. Krian represented the majority of Iban voters. Makala Dun Kalaka and Kabong voters are majority Malays. But if all 3 duns in the Saratok parliament are combined. Iban is still the majority of 65%. The rest is gone. Therefore, YB Ali Biju's position in the Saratok parliament in the next general election may not necessarily win, even though he is quite popular among the locals. But according to Mandau GPS has an advantage in Kabong and Kalaka because GPS is a local party, the majority of Melanau voters and GPS is seeding many projects at the moment and before voting day - surely money politics will dominate. Although YB Ali Biju is quite popular among the local residents of the Kerian State Assembly area - because before he was the YB of the area. YB Friday ak Belik is increasingly competing with him now with GPS sowing many projects. YB ALi Biju is still popular among Krian residents for supplying residents with 2 kobelco excavators to help residents level house sites, build roads and bridges and to help residents in palm oil plantations for free. GPS has implemented many infra projects for local residents. Because of that there is a possibility if a 3-cornered competition is held between GPS, PH and PN Ali Biju. It is possible that GPS will win - said Mandau. But if PH is given a similar allocation by the Prime Minister - like GPS has. PH also has bright hopes because the vote will be split. Mandau said that residents are aware that Ali Biju represents the PN party - the party of Malay supremacy. Ali Biju will not be able to do anything related to good policies for the Iban people because this party is dominated by Muslim Malays. But many will still vote for Ali Biju because of his service and goodness. It can be concluded that GPS is leading in Kerian, followed by ALi Biju - PN and Ph/PKR far behind. Asked if Iban voters will win ALi Biju in Krian if he stands using an independent party that fights for Dayak/Iban interests. Mandau thinks that not only in Krian, but also in other places, support for Dayak candidates who are believed to be fighting to defend the Dayaks will be given victory.

Nicholas Mujah, General Secretary SADIA
*Sarawak’s Timber Industry Under Fire: NGOs Push for EU Action to Protect Indigenous Rights*
Several local and international NGOs have urged the EU to classify Sarawak's wood products as "high risk" under the new EUDR regulations that will come into force in 2025. Nicholas Mujah, representing SADIA, also expressed agreement with the NGOs' call. The SADIA office in Kuching receives almost daily reports of encroachment on indigenous people's land by logging companies, oil palm plantations, and mining operations, a result of decades of unchecked aggression. According to Nicholas, the devastating effects of climate change are already being felt, and without decisive action from the EU, the invasion and dispossession of the indigenous people's land and rights will continue. 
He addressed concerns that blocking Sarawak's wood products, palm oil, and mining products from the EU market might negatively impact the economy of Sarawak and Malaysia. However, Nicholas clarified that the EUDR does not mean a total ban on sales. Instead, products must be produced in compliance with transparent laws that respect the rights, customs, and culture of local and indigenous populations. 
Nicholas also pointed out that the GPS government in Sarawak often cites MTCS (Malaysian Timber Certification Scheme) as proof of compliance with industry standards. However, he criticized the MTCS audit process, stating that it relies too heavily on existing laws and fails to respect the rights and customs of the indigenous communities that own the forests. He added that the MTCS audit does not account for the social impact, and worse, the audit teams often consist of individuals from the timber industry itself. Furthermore, state-level enforcement agencies responsible for approving logging permits are frequently influenced by powerful politicians, leading to logging and plantation activities that violate indigenous rights.</itunes:summary>

*Dispute Over Similajau National Park Boundaries: Residents Demand Compensation for Encroachment*
Tr Panting gave an update on what happened after the meeting at the IPD Bintulu Police Office - which was also attended by former Sarawak state chief secretary Datuk Amar Morshidi Abdul Ghani. All parties agreed to go down to the field to see the boundary of the Similajau national park with the residential lots / agricultural areas. For 2 days the residents waited for the SFC to go and see the border. But the SFC was absent and did not show its face. For suspecting something has happened. So the residents dared to enter the fenced area. Apparently for the past few weeks, when the SFC was doing roadblocks. They have entered our garden, cut down more than 20 oil palm trees and dug with a bulldozer 3 big holes/trenches so that our car cannot enter the garden area. This is a form of encroachment on our garden and we will demand compensation. During the meeting I stated that the distance between our garden and the border of the national park is 1.65 km as agreed upon when we were first given permission to explore the area. It was clearly confirmed by SFC officials that the third exstantion was gazetted in 2018. This shows that we have been gardening in the area in question earlier (2009) before 2018. This proves that we were given permission in advance before the third exstantion in 2018. On SFC's encroachment on the garden us. We have made a police report for immediate action- said Panting.

Tr Panting Ak Baling- Head of Similajau agricultural heritage village, Bintulu.
*Clash Over Agricultural Rights: Villagers Challenge SFC’s Authority on Similajau National Park*
The conflict between the villagers and the SFC reached a critical level when a blockade was set up by the villagers in front of the entrance to their agricultural area which is claimed to be included in the Similajau National Park area. Residents claim - during the administration of Sarawak Chief Minister Adenan Satem. The area is outside the national park and was given by Adenan when he sympathized with the poor people who came to migrate to bintulu town to find work. When more and more members of the public came to give support to the villagers of agricultural heritage in an effort to defend their rights. The SFC set up roadblocks at the entrance to the agricultural area, making it difficult for residents to get in and out. Aware of this problem, yesterday the IPD Bintulu police called a meeting which was also attended by the former Chief Secretary of Sarawak Mohammad Morshidi Abdul Ghani (2009-2019) who was on duty when Adenan was Chief Minister of Sarawak. Present in the meeting IPD Bintulu Police Chief, Head of Bintulu Land and Survey Department, villagers and SFC. The meeting decided that the SFC and the villagers should go to the field to determine the boundaries as approved by the Adenan Satem administration. But until late this evening, the SFC failed to appear, thus proving that they were on the wrong side and the residents remained with the argument - that they were not intruders. The agricultural land they occupied was a gift from Adenan Satem.

Dennis Along, PKR Baram Communications Director
*Social Media Slander Targets Roland Engan’s Efforts to Resolve Baram Logging Dispute*
Yesterday, Dennis, Roland Engan and Nick Kelesau and Baram PKR members filed a police report against a Tik Tok account called "Malu Apa BossKu" which actively went viral with 2 tiktok videos related to Roland Engan, Sarawak PKR Chairman who was allegedly carrying several individuals and being abusive towards a driver a four-wheel drive car believed to be an employee of a logging company operating in Ba Data Bila- the Penan people's forest reserve. 
Commenting on the text in the video mentions why Roland Engan, Sarawak PKR chairman, is acting like a thug, leading some individuals to act aggressively against the driver of a car. Another shows Roland Engan being insulted and scolded by a Penan for being involved in a logging dispute in the Ba Data Bila area. This is all slander - said Dennis. The tiktok video has been edited and tries to show Roland as an uncivilized and immoral party. In fact, it was the parties involved who acted rudely and some individuals with Roland tried to defend themselves. Dennis denounced the parties involved for being afraid to post the full/real video. Police investigation showed that the owner of the account was in Singapore. The police and MCMC are actively investigating. Roland went to Ba Data Bila at the invitation of the Penan people to resolve a case of dispute, a group of Penan people wanted logging and another group opposed. As a result of Roland's involvement - a total of 13 people involved in illegal logging have been arrested by the police as a result of an integrated operation with the forest department. Dennis concluded that the slanderous attack against Roland was because this party was depressed and unable to argue face to face. This shows that Roland's efforts to help the Penans have been effective and able to unite the Penans against illegal logging in Baram.

Tr Panting ak Baling, Head of Sg.Patin Agricultural Heritage Village, Bintulu
*Tensions Rise at Blockade: Villagers Demand Access to Agricultural Land*
Panting gave an update on what happened at the blockade site this morning. After the Miring ceremony on Saturday was held successfully by the villagers of agricultural heritage. Today the SFC responded when they learned that residents would break in and open the fence they had erected to prevent residents from entering their agricultural areas. After discussing with SADIA and SUHAKAM on Saturday, the residents unanimously agreed to demolish the fence built by SFC. This is to enable them to harvest coffee and palm oil in their plantation area. But the people have not had time to act. The SFC, Police and PGA set up roadblocks on the entrance to the residents' plantation area. Residents are not allowed in, even as far as their blockade encampment. When this recording was made the residents were still trying to ask in a good way for the fence erected by the SFC to be opened or the residents would crash in - said TR. Panting and Baling. Residents have made it clear that they are not intruders. A police report was made and strong evidence was included that the residents got permission from the former chief minister of Sarawak and the land and survey department to cultivate agriculture in the area.</itunes:summary>

John Brian, Sarawak Political Analyst. Once served as SHO Officer during the development of MLNG Bintulu
*Sarawak's Push for Green Energy Faces Scrutiny After Fatal Industrial Accidents*
John Brian commented on industrial accidents at the Samalaju Industrial Park that are becoming more frequent and costing lives. Two incidents that happened only 3 weeks apart, the first was the explosion at the OCIM sdn.bhd chemical factory which killed 2 lives and injured 8 people on 14 August 2024 and this morning there were several large explosions in the Press Metal aluminum smelting factory in Samalaju. My initial reaction is that the authorities must issue an immediate media statement to allay the public's fears. Samalaju Assemblyman Majang Renggie, Sarawak Industry Minister- Awang Tengah, Niosh chairman and DOSH chairman. So far no one has given an explanation. Both a thorough investigation should be done. I think, in Sarawak's enthusiasm to lead the green energy industry and energy transition. They lack carefulness and weak leadership in the field of job security. The work system is not organized, ministers do not understand their responsibilities and security is not tightened. In the GAS industry, smelting, chemical and so on. Will use a lot of electricity. Therefore the safety aspect is very important. The question is why Korea and Japan are willing to buy green Hydrogen from Sarawak by 2027?. Because the hydrogen production process is very risky. They are willing to buy expensive as long as they don't sacrifice the safety of their people. Due to the negligence of plant operators in the country involved, they face prison terms. This means, if Sarawak is serious about developing the hydrogen industry. The safety aspect is paramount. The explosion at the metal press factory in Samalaju happened 24 hours after the Premier of Sarawak spoke at the PetroleumAsia Pacific 2024 conference in Singapore. In his speech Abang Jo said- Sarawak wants to strengthen its position as a global leader in the green hydrogen market including ASEAN and ASIA PACIFIC

Licki Ngau, Residents of Long Bemang, Baram.
*Costly and Unfair: The Struggles of Fertilizer Distribution*
The residents of Long Bemang recently received rice fertilizer assistance from the federal government for the year 2024. This assistance has been provided almost every year. However, the fertilizer distribution for this year has become increasingly irregular. There are 160 recipients in Long Bemang, and each recipient is supposed to receive 11 sacks of fertilizer. However, they are required to pay RM3 for each sack, totaling RM33 for the 11 sacks provided. For the villagers, this is considered expensive, as there was no need to pay anything in the past.
In addition, the villagers have expressed that they need fertilizer for their oil palm plants, but the government provided hill paddy fertilizer instead. At present, the villagers no longer plant hill paddy, so they are requesting that the government provide oil palm fertilizer rather than hill paddy fertilizer. 
Moreover, the fertilizer distribution process has been deemed unfair. Some families who do not live in the village or engage in agricultural activities are also receiving the fertilizer assistance. Most of the recipients appear to be supporters of GPS, despite the fertilizer aid coming from the federal government. Therefore, the villagers are calling for an investigation into this matter, especially why they are being charged RM3 per sack, allegedly for transportation costs, but without any receipt being issued. They also want the distribution process to be fairer, regardless of political ideology, and are requesting that officials from the federal Ministry of Agriculture investigate and monitor the situation.

Tonny Ung, Bintulu DAP Chairman
*The Impact of Split Votes: Why GPS Triumphed in Samalaju*
Tonny shared his experience of competing in the 12th Sarawak state election in 2021 and losing badly in a 5-cornered contest in Samalaju state assembly. Acknowledging that Samalaju is a Dayak Iban majority area. But preliminary surveys show the attitude of Iban voters who can and will vote for anyone regardless of race. However, the DAP candidate for this area was initially DAP CEC John Anthony Brian. But because John Brian wants to compete in his own village in Kemena state assembly. So I was given the task of competing in Dun Samalaju. I prepared for a year. But because the area is very wide. I think even if given 5 years is not enough time. I only had time to campaign for one round, before the voting. The strongest factor wins the GPS by a large majority of errors - the 5 corner competition. According to Tony, the Iban people are smart in politics. They know- if 1 against 1. I have a chance to win. Many iban longhouses are not satisfied with GPS. But when there are 5 candidates volunteering. Then they can predict the vote will split and GPS will win. So they will decide to vote for GPS so that it is easy to get the project. But according to Tony, DAP will make a decision soon to determine the candidate who will represent DAP in the next state election. The formula according to Tony is one to one against GPS. Chances of winning are bright. Because the people of Sarawak know that GPS is not a reliable party.

But when there are 5 candidates volunteering. Then they can predict the vote will split and GPS will win. So they will decide to vote for GPS so that it is easy to get the project. But according to Tony, DAP will make a decision soon to determine the candidate who will represent DAP in the next state election. The formula according to Tony is one to one against GPS. Chances of winning are bright. Because the people of Sarawak know that GPS is not a reliable party.

*Fight for Land Rights Amid Accusations of Encroachment*
Residents are preparing for the "Miring" ceremony, praying to the old traditional beliefs of the Dayak Iban tribe - so that the residents will be given strength in facing the problems they face. Residents also prayed that justice would be given to them in an effort to claim the rights to the land that had been given to them. The Miring ceremony will be conducted on the morning of Sept 7, 2024 in front of the entrance to the resident's garden/farm lot. All sympathetic and interested parties are invited to attend. Some NGOs from home and abroad will also be present. In the excitement of the residents make preparations. Superintendent of SFC - Azlan - filed a police report at Bintulu police station - accusing TR Panting ak Baling of encroaching on Similajau national park. Reports call for him to be investigated and arrested immediately. TR Panting was summoned to testify at the Bintulu police station. For more than 2 hours testifying. The police are satisfied with the information and evidence provided. He was released.  TR Panting appealed to all activists in Sarawak to attend this Saturday at the agricultural lot of Warisan Pertanian villagers of Patin Bintulu river.

Dennis Along- Environmental Activist from Mulu, Sarawak
*Gazetted Without Consent: Baram's Struggle Against Forest Exploitation*
Today, we Baram residents - especially those living in the Tutoh and Data Julan area were surprised by the official memorandum by the Miri regional forest officer dated 28/8/2024 - informed that 2 areas will be gazetted as TPA- Totally Protected Area- namely-SURO- TUTOH Protected Forest and Julan Protected Forest Data. The forms that were distributed did not ask for our opinion. Whether we agree or not. Instead we were asked to fill in our name and residential address so that we would be given rights and privileges in the area to be gazetted. First of all - we do not agree that the area should be made a protected forest, because surely the SFC will prevent us from entering the area and secondly - why suddenly the area wants to be protected when there have been dozens of rounds of timber companies logging in the area. We are the ones who should declare the area as a no-go area for loggers or SFC. Because that is our land and forest area.  The forest department and GPS Sarawak government that have allowed logging in the affected area so far. We also don't need special privileges, because we have been free to hunt and fish in the restricted area, for self-sufficiency. Since it is our land, we prohibit logging. But the GPS government still gave logging licenses to Samling and Shin Yang. Now they want to turn the area into a landfill. We can feel that they want to completely seize the area from us to make it a Carbon Trading area in the future. This is the trick of GPS and working with logging companies. I am sad because many retired teachers are employed by logging companies to obtain information and distribute forms on behalf of the SFC. Many tribal leaders work closely with the SFC to maintain their salaries and allowances. However. We TuToh residents still object to the 4400 ha area being gazetted as Protected Forests.</itunes:summary>

Nicholas Mujah, Secretary General of SADIA 
*Forest Clearing for Palm Oil: Hidden Logging Practices Exposed in Sarawak*
The Borneo Post reported a logjam in the catchment area of the water treatment plant at Balai Ringin, Sri Aman. According to the Natural Resources and Environment Board (NREB), legal action has been taken against the company responsible for the pollution. The NREB stated that the incident was caused by uncontrolled forest clearing activities. 
However, Nicholas Mujah claims that the forest clearing is actually being conducted for commercial palm oil cultivation. Before planting, the entire area is cleared of all weeds and trees. Plantation companies often take the opportunity to sell the logs from the designated plantation area. Nicholas notes that some companies apply for permits to establish oil palm plantations just to gain access to areas for logging. After the trees are cut down, the areas meant for palm oil cultivation are sometimes left abandoned.
According to Nicholas, this situation is common due to widespread corruption among elected representatives (YBs) in Sarawak. The forest department and the oil palm plantation companies bribe village heads to keep them from reporting these environmental crimes. The current fines range from RM30,000 to RM150,000, depending on the size of the contaminated area. However, these fines are negligible compared to the environmental damage caused and the substantial profits from selling logs in the designated plantation areas, which can reach tens of millions of ringgit.
To change this situation, the people of Sarawak need to realize the importance of electing responsible representatives who are not involved in corruption. Additionally, there is a need for a government committed to protecting the environment by introducing stricter laws that include prison sentences.

Tr Panting ak Baling- Head of Sungai Patin Similajau Bintulu Agricultural Heritage Village
*We were afraid of being arrested*
Tr Panting provided an update on the efforts to set up tents in preparation for the blockade and welcomed the presence of SUHAKAM and a group of NGOs, both local and international, who are expected to visit Similajau next week. In response to these developments, the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) posted an arrest warrant notice that had been issued in the past against an Indonesian citizen and a Chinese national who had trespassed into the national park.
Upon seeing this notice, a concerned individual went to see the Bintulu police chief to inquire about the purpose of the SFC posting it. Mr. Billy, the police officer on duty, explained that the notice has nothing to do with the residents of Taman Warisan Pertanian. According to the police, the notice was likely posted to intimidate the residents.
The individual felt relieved because the police also sympathize with the residents who were evicted from the area recently designated as part of an additional national park. The police informed them that the SFC is organizing a meeting with all involved parties, which will be attended by YB Kawasan Similajau, Majang Renggi.
The residents welcome this meeting and plan to provide evidence that their presence in the area has been with the blessing and permission of the former Chief Minister of Sarawak, Adenan Satem. They also intend to request that SADIA attend the meeting to support them, although the date for the meeting has not yet been finalized.</itunes:summary>

Jok Jau Ivong. Coordinator of Sahabat Alam Malaysia, Sarawak region
*From Reforestation to Profit: The Hidden Motives of Sarawak's Tree Planting Efforts*
The success of planting 35 million trees as claimed by the Sarawak government is a lie and a fraud. There is no clear evidence that they succeeded in planting trees as claimed. How can we prove they are lying, ie the trees that are claimed to be planted are cultivated under the forest plantation management scheme by the logging companies. The trees that are planted are monoculture and when it reaches a certain time it will be cut down for sale as well. The main motive of the Green Malaysia Campaign is to plant trees to replace those that have been cut down and the trees that are planted cannot be cut down again for commercial purposes. It is clear that what the Sarawak government is doing is a fraud and publicity to cover up the environmental crimes they are committing. Another example of their failure is related to FMU. The government claims that 26 FMUs that they work on have been certified and the same goes for 8 FPMU schemes that have also managed to get recognition and certification. But what actually happened according to Jok Jau was. Studies, surveys and certificates obtained from local residents are information that has been falsified or modified. Residents were also not given copies of the documents they had signed. If it is true that the Sarawak government wants to conserve the environment and be an example and leader in this campaign. The first step is transparency in all certification processes, replanting local wood species that cannot be cut down and logged again. Stop commercial logging and plantations and plans to build mega dams - Jok Jau Ivong says.

Gereng Jadum - Spokesperson for Penan Murum
*Sudden Layoffs at Danum Sinar: Penan Workers Fight for Their Rights*
Gereng provided an update regarding the case of 126 Penan Murum workers who were suddenly dismissed by the Danum Sinar Palm Oil Plantation company, citing the closure of two plantations where they worked. The two plantations in question are Kelayan Plantation and Lakin Plantation. Three days ago, the lawyer representing the Penan workers informed that the company is willing to pay compensation to the dismissed workers, calculated at 20 days per year and paid at RM57.69 per day. This means that each worker is entitled to compensation of RM1,153.80 multiplied by the number of years worked. For those who worked for 6 years, they will receive RM6,922.80, while those who worked for 4 years will receive RM4,615.20.
The Penan workers reluctantly accepted this compensation because the amount is very small, and Danum Sinar refuses to pay 3 months' salary for the sudden termination, even though it had been agreed upon in previous discussions. The Penan community is appealing to Danum Sinar to be given contracts in the remaining plantations so they can continue their livelihood. 
The process of collecting palm fruits in the supposedly closed Lakin and Kelayan Plantations will be carried out by Indonesian workers without valid work permits and by the remaining 86 Penan workers still employed. These remaining workers are still working in Jabon Plantation and Marong 1 and 2 Plantations, which are also owned by Danum Sinar. 
"We will continue to demand the 3 months' salary for the sudden termination. We will refer this matter to the Sarawak Department of Labour," said Gereng.</itunes:summary>

Abun Sui, Senator of PKR Sarawak
*Why Is Sarawak's RM40 Billion Reserve Not Being Used for Infrastructure?*
The Sarawak government must use the RM40 billion reserve it proudly boasts of to address the issues faced by the people, particularly the increasing floods and lack of basic public facilities, said Senator Abun Sui Anyit.
Abun Sui frequently calls for allocations in the House to improve infrastructure and development for Sarawak, especially to resolve issues related to floods, roads, and bridges in the state. However, the main issue he often debates is the road access from rural areas, which is crucial for helping the people sell their agricultural products.
What is surprising is the issue of roads; according to the Federal Government, the construction of state roads falls under the jurisdiction of the state government. The budget allocated by the Federal Government should be used by the state government to manage development plans for the people of Sarawak, but the Sarawak government has not been using these funds appropriately.
The RM40 billion Sarawak reserve is not just to be kept idle. According to Abun, the RM40 billion reserve could be used to solve the infrastructure shortages in Sarawak. Roads in Sarawak should be improved, flood problems should be resolved, and damaged bridges should be repaired. 
The state of Sarawak has the capability to address these issues, yet they are not taking action.</itunes:summary>

Mutang Tuo, Head of Ba Payau Village, Mulu
*Unheard Complaints: Penan Communities Confront Environmental Damage from Logging*
Mutang and some villagers of Ba Payau feel disturbed by the pollution that happened in Sungai Layun. They took the initiative to check the upper part of the Layun river to find out what caused the river to become dirty and smelly. How surprised they were to see the Layun river filled with garbage, plastic bottles, factory wood scraps, bad tires and many other things. According to Mutang, in the upper part of the Layun river, Shin Yang and Samling are the main timber producers. However some of their worker settlements- produce garbage which they throw directly into the river. In addition, they also direct sewage pipes directly into the river. I myself have filed a complaint. But the authorities of Samling and Shin Yang ignored my complaint. All this time they destroyed our forests and now they are polluting our rivers. As a result of this severe river pollution, the number of fish catches is decreasing. Samling plywood factory used to operate in the upstream part. But now it is closed. Now the pollution of garbage and sewage waste has a bad effect on our health - said Mutang Tuo. Several penan long houses were affected such as Long Kevok, long nen, long Leng, Ba Payau, and Long Layun. We asked for compensation from these two logging companies, but they ignored our requests. We are often hit by floods and floods damage our crops and houses. I hope the forest department and the environment department come to investigate my complaint - Mutang said</itunes:summary>

*Community Outcry as Residents Face Forced Eviction: SUHAKAM Steps In*
Panting gives an update on what happened in the past 2 days. The SFC reinforced the fence they erected to prevent residents from trespassing. The SFC also erected a sign in front of the erected fence stating that anyone trespassing would be prosecuted. Another notice - instructions to leave the National Park in accordance with section 34 of the National Parks and Nature Reserves ordinance 1998. This notice requires the residents of Warisam Pertanian Park to vacate their land within 14 days. The notice is dated March 15, 2024 and residents must leave their garden land on March 29, 2024. 
But according to Panting, the attached notice was not served on them on the date specified. It was only known a month ago. This means that the SFC is not honest or has backdated the letter. 
Yesterday, the residents started to set up tents and perform tilt ceremonies. It is done to ask God's protection in their efforts to demand justice on their behalf. The Malaysian Human Rights Commission SUHAKAM will visit the tent site on 11 Sept 2024 and will be joined by several NGOs from the USA. “What happened to us was an injustice. We are not trespassing. The garden we work on is a gift from the Adenan Satem Administration. The current government has increased the area of the national park to enter our land. So they are the real aggressors. This is the result of the people giving too much power to GPS, they will become arrogant” - Said TR Panting ak Baling.</itunes:summary>

John Brian Anthony, Sarawak Political Analyst
*Ending Corporate Favoritism: John Brian's Call to Protect Indigenous Land Rights in Sarawak*
John responded to the Miri police chief's media statement that the police are investigating a property embezzlement case in the WTK palm oil plantation in Suai Niah. Information states that 3 individuals have been arrested and police are still hunting for 4 more suspects of assault and treachery. I question why the police investigate the complaint made by the taukey farm only. Meanwhile, when thousands of complaints were made by villagers regarding the case of careless land, the police did not investigate at all. The police should also investigate why such an incident happened, is it because of injustice against the landowners in the area? - asked John. Farm Taukey is a rich man. WTK has 3 locations in the Suai Niah area. They obtained the PL because they were rich and had political connections with the rulers. How can the poor demand justice if the government favors rich corporations. Cases like this happen all over Sarawak. The reason is because GPS gives NCR land belonging to Orang Asal to rich people and the rights of land owners are not guaranteed by the government. There are many examples of failed JVs such as LCDA and SELCRA. The company makes a lot of profit - but the return is only a few ringgits to the land owner. I suggest now that the government does not give PL to rich companies anymore. Stop it. Now give assistance to Dayak/original farmers - capital to clear land, seeds, agricultural technology, fertilizers and then marketing and reasonable pricing. This will be fairer and Dayak land ownership will remain. Because if the Dayak/Orang Asal continue to be pressured with unfair policies. I believe cases like those in Suai, Batu Niah and in Merakai Serian will continue to repeat themselves in the future - John Brian said.

Apai May, Residents of Kampung Tangap, Niah
*Villagers Clash with WTK Over Unfulfilled Promises in Suai Niah Palm Oil Dispute*
Kampung Apai May is located 1 hour away from the WTK palm oil plantation that was recently attacked by a group of villagers. But according to Apai May, outsiders don't really know about the attack because the WTK farm is located far from the main road. 
However, according to Apai May, WTK owns 3 palm oil plantations in Suai Niah and has been operating for over 10 years. For this time the police have arrested 3 people who committed attacks and damage in the offices and residences of WTK farm workers and according to internal information - the police are still hunting for 4 more people. 
According to an informant to RFS who refused to be named, the attack was not carried out by the entire village population. It is done by a small group only.

Apai May, Residents of Kampung Tangap, Niah
*Villagers Clash with WTK Over Unfulfilled Promises in Suai Niah Palm Oil Dispute*
Kampung Apai May is located 1 hour away from the WTK palm oil plantation that was recently attacked by a group of villagers. But according to Apai May, outsiders don't really know about the attack because the WTK farm is located far from the main road. 
However, according to Apai May, WTK owns 3 palm oil plantations in Suai Niah and has been operating for over 10 years. For this time the police have arrested 3 people who committed attacks and damage in the offices and residences of WTK farm workers and according to internal information - the police are still hunting for 4 more people. 
According to an informant to RFS who refused to be named, the attack was not carried out by the entire village population. It is done by a small group only. It was done because of dissatisfaction with unfulfilled promises. The agreement in question is - residents will be paid 30% of the revenue from the WTK farm in Suai Niah to the villagers who own the land. But after more than 10 years have passed. The company claims that the company is still in losses and has not been able to pay the revenue as intended. The company has paid the residents but not as expected. Because the residents were not satisfied, they picked their own palm fruit and sold it. When this situation is known to WTK. WTK claimed that the parties involved were thieves and brought their own thugs to prevent and drive away the parties involved. However, the party accused of stealing responded by attacking the WTK farm.

Ngajang Miden, Residents of Uma Ukit Hulu Balui Bakun
*Logging Camps and Environmental Chaos: The Urgent Need to Halt Deforestation in Bakun*
Ngajang Miden is the leader of Uma Ukit residents who refuse to move to the Bakun Sungai Asap resettlement area. They moved to the high mountains so as not to be overwhelmed by the Bakun dam. RFS found out from a report on fb that a kilometer-long pile of wood (jam log) occurred again in the Linau river upstream of the Bakun dam. 
Ngajang confirmed the incident and informed that there were 2 reasons why it happened. Firstly, the logging activities in the upstream of the Linau river and the upstream of the bakun and the second - the decay of the timber in the bakun dam itself. Wood that is not cut down or not cleaned in the dam area will float when the water in the dam is full. 
In Linau River alone there are still 5 logging camps run by the Shin Yang logging company. While upstream of the bakun there are several logging camps run by Rimbunan Hijau. Among them Seraju Holding, Lanjak Camp, Besta sdn.bhd, Wong Camp and Ensurai Camp. There are several other logging camps that Ngajang himself does not remember the names of. We have complained about this clock log problem to SEB but no action has been taken. 
This problem is serious because it restricts our journey and has caused several accidents. The most appropriate way to solve this problem is to stop the logging with the GPS government terminate the logging license in the upstream Bakun because it pollutes the environment and we local people need the forest as our source of life. Bakun area under the administration of YB Liwan Lagang GPS.

RFS Listener who don’t want revealed name
*A fight between the villagers in Suai Niah and the WTK Plantation thugs*
Yesterday it went viral on the social media of the Palm Oil plantation company WTK in Suai, Niah. A group of 200 villagers were attacked. WTK company suffered a lot of damage. Houses and office equipment were broken into and company vehicles were overturned. Until now, no party can provide accurate information about what actually happened. Today RFS contacted some residents of Suai Niah. They confirmed the incident did happen but gave a different report. Some reported that the villagers attacked the plantation company because the company often brought thugs to intimidate and extort them. Some also reported that the company brought thugs to drive away villagers who stole WTK's palm oil and some also reported that this incident was a personal fight between several individuals related to the management of the WTK company. The parties interviewed by RFS also refused to reveal their names and real identities. For now, a number of residents have been arrested by the police and the investigation is ongoing. It is not yet clear whether this fight happened because of a conflict related to land acquisition or the crime of stealing palm fruit.

Geoffrey Tang, President of Rise Of Social Effort (ROSE)
*1 Person, 1 Vote, 1 Value: The Push for Electoral Fairness in Sarawak*
Rose is running an election awareness campaign throughout Sarawak and urges the EC to re-delimit electoral areas based on the principle of 1 person, one vote, one vote, one value. According to Tang, after the AVR is approved and implemented in 2022. The increase in votes in Sarawak is sudden - that is an increase of 79.5 percent and until April 2024 the number of Sarawak voters increased to 1,990,322 people with an average increase of 3100 people every month. This gives problems to the current Sarawak constituencies. There are so many voter areas and there are quite a few voters. So because of that there needs to be redistricting, but not with an increase in seats - that is ROSE's suggestion and opinion - said Tang. We think the number of seats -82 is enough but the number of voters in each area should be almost the same. The next process is that the Sarawak DUN must bring the motion in the DUN and be approved and brought to the EC. It should be clarified that the EC has no authority to increase the number of seats in Sarawak, except with the recommendation of the Sarawak State Assembly. For now 82 is enough. We also launched a campaign of volunteers who will be involved in giving suggestions on the demarcation of Sarawak's constituencies. The more voters who are aware of their rights, the wiser they are in choosing competent representatives.

Tr Panting ak Baling, Head of the agricultural heritage village, Patin river, Bintulu
*Dayak Community Faces Intensifying Pressure as SFC Tightens Grip on Agricultural Lands*
Update- Panting informed that the people of his village are living more and more difficult as they are prevented from entering the oil palm plantations and coffee plantations they are working on. SFC increases the strength at the entrance in the agricultural area of the population by placing 6 to 7 patrol cars at a time and 24 hours. They also installed cctv to record movement on the road and the entrance to the agricultural area. Residents are still appealing to the Sarawak government and SFC not to include their agricultural areas in the expansion of Similajau National Park. We are trying to contact YB Samalaju- Majang Renggie. However, we were scolded and prevented by officials in Yb's Office - to complain or enter Yb Majang's office. Even according to confidential information we have obtained. YB Majang Renggie - agreed that our farm and garden areas be seized by the SFC. We have had a meeting and we will set up tents and blockade next week. We are determined to do so because only palm oil plantations and coffee plantations are the only source of our income. According to Panting, Dayak voters are ready to change their votes to the Dayak PBDS party in the upcoming election. They are tired of being cheated and bullied by GPS. In fact, according to Panting, there are 31 cases throughout Sarawak where approval was given during the Adenan Satem administration but was withdrawn by Premier Johari Openg. Regardless of the SFC's threats against us, we are determined to fight for our lives, we will not submit to the SFC-Kata Panting ak Baling.

-------------------

Micheal Mering Jok- SCRIPS secretary general.
*Enough is Enough: Micheal Jok Demands Action on Rural Road Repairs and Cronyism in Sarawak*
Micheal Jok reported - the results of a survey in several rural areas, especially in Baram and Hulu Rajang, showed that many roads and bridges had collapsed and the logging companies did not repair them again on the grounds that they no longer used the roads. Sarawak Deputy Prime Minister Douglas Unggah Embas said that the Sarawak government did not have enough budget to repair the damage and Assemblyman Mulu Gerawat Gala said more than 1000km of roads in Baram were in bad condition and needed immediate repair because they were used by 400 villages in Baram. It is not logical and it is not possible that the Sarawak government does not have enough money. The 2024 budget shows the biggest budget in the history of Sarawak which is rm12.363 billion, the problem is according to Micheal Jok. What are the government's priorities and how is the money spent on the ground? We often hear the term improving and upgrading log roads. What is the need to upgrade the log road if log trucks are still using the road. Sooner or later it will break down too. Inland residents are often threatened by logging companies. If they are not given a log concession - then they will not repair the log road. Since when did the people in the hinterland become hostages of the logging companies. The allocation is enough. The main problem according to Micheal is that the contract is given to cronies and the work is not carried out properly. I advise the civil administration to take serious action to prosecute YB's crony companies that often get government contracts but fail to complete their work. We the people are also aware that many log millionaires have been created through the policies of chief minister Taib Mahmud. It should be now that these timber companies contribute back to help develop rural infrastructure and contribute back to the community that has made them rich. Bintulu Bakun road is facing severe damage due to use by Shin Yang and Samling log trucks. But the authorities did not take action against them.

Micheal Mering Jok- SCRIPS secretary general.
*Enough is Enough: Micheal Jok Demands Action on Rural Road Repairs and Cronyism in Sarawak*
Micheal Jok reported - the results of a survey in several rural areas, especially in Baram and Hulu Rajang, showed that many roads and bridges had collapsed and the logging companies did not repair them again on the grounds that they no longer used the roads. Sarawak Deputy Prime Minister Douglas Unggah Embas said that the Sarawak government did not have enough budget to repair the damage and Assemblyman Mulu Gerawat Gala said more than 1000km of roads in Baram were in bad condition and needed immediate repair because they were used by 400 villages in Baram. It is not logical and it is not possible that the Sarawak government does not have enough money. The 2024 budget shows the biggest budget in the history of Sarawak which is rm12.363 billion, the problem is according to Micheal Jok. What are the government's priorities and how is the money spent on the ground? We often hear the term improving and upgrading log roads. What is the need to upgrade the log road if log trucks are still using the road. Sooner or later it will break down too. Inland residents are often threatened by logging companies. If they are not given a log concession - then they will not repair the log road. Since when did the people in the hinterland become hostages of the logging companies. The allocation is enough. The main problem according to Micheal is that the contract is given to cronies and the work is not carried out properly. I advise the civil administration to take serious action to prosecute YB's crony companies that often get government contracts but fail to complete their work. We the people are also aware that many log millionaires have been created through the policies of chief minister Taib Mahmud. It should be now that these timber companies contribute back to help develop rural infrastructure and contribute back to the community that has made them rich. Bintulu Bakun road is facing severe damage due to use by Shin Yang and Samling log trucks. But the authorities did not take action against them. We the people want strict action against any party that misuses power and road facilities in the interior should be a priority - Said Micheal Mering Jok.

*Unresolved Land Conflict: Tensions Escalate During Failed Negotiations*
Keliang gives an update on the blockade that has been established since 2 months 26 days ago. Blocakde was established to prevent the Tradewind Melor Gemilang company from harvesting palm oil in the land claimed by the people of Merakai village. The land of more than 2000 hectares has been cultivated by Tradewind Melor Gemilang with oil palm cultivation (called a joint venture). But after palm oil bore fruit. The company does not give any profit to the villagers. Therefore, the people set up a blockade. The company failed to enter the plantation and could not collect the palm oil. Last Thursday 8 August 2024, the company sent a representative to negotiate with the residents at the blockade site. But it failed because the company's alleged representative brought with them 60 thugs, spoke rudely, carried weapons and intended to open the blockade. 4 days after the event, the land and survey department invited the residents to dialogue and it lasted until yesterday and today. The land and survey department asked 95 heads of families to confirm the position of their land as shown on the map. Only then can compensation be paid. Residents are demanding land prices and compensation of 100 thousand ringgit for each family/door. The meeting with the land and surveying department will continue today until all family heads are called - said TR Keliang ak Suat.

Gereng Jadum, Resident of Penan Murum
*Penan Workers Fight Back: Compensation Delays and Employment Fraud in Murum*
Gereng is also a spokesperson for the local Murum workers who were laid off by the Danum Sinar plantation company. The situation went viral on social media a few weeks ago when 126 local workers, all from the Penan Murum community, were suddenly fired by the Danum Sinar oil palm plantation in Murum. In response, the workers set up a blockade. Despite the intervention of the police, the labor department, and Penan lawyers, the blockade was dismantled with the promise from Danum Sinar to pay compensation to the laid-off workers.
However, according to Gereng, the payment has been delayed because Danum Sinar is falsifying employment documents. He claims that the lawyer appointed by the Penan workers informed them that the employment entry forms for the 126 Penan workers had been altered. The documents were redesigned to show a shorter employment period and were modified and signed by Danum Sinar itself, not by the workers. Gereng believes this was done to reduce the amount of compensation the workers are entitled to. "In reality, we have been working here for more than seven years," said Gereng Jadum. "We are giving the management of Danum Sinar three more chances. After that, if compensation is not paid, we will re-establish the blockade."
Regarding the recommendation from Sarawak Premier Johari Openg to establish a special committee involving the plantation, construction, and manufacturing sectors to expedite the issuance of work permits for foreign workers, Gereng expressed his concerns. He stated that the labor law clearly requires companies to prioritize hiring local workers first. Only if no local workers are interested can foreign workers be employed, and they must have valid work permits. In the case of Danum Sinar, the foreign workers do not have work permits. "This issue is not isolated to Murum," Gereng said. "I have been told by others that employing foreign workers without permits is happening all over Sarawak. By employing undocumented foreign workers, employers neglect the welfare of the workers, and their salaries are uncertain. Often, wages are paid too low, and the workers are completely exploited."

Roland Engan, Chairman of the Sarawak People's Justice Party (PKR)
*PKR Sarawak Prepares for Election Showdown with GPS, Emphasizes Local Autonomy*
The Sarawak Justice Party finished holding its annual convention on Sunday 11 August 2024. Meanwhile on 4 August in Sabah. The Sabah People's Justice Party held a state convention as well. But in Sabah PKR President Anwar Ibrahim attended with a speech full of energy and enthusiasm - while in Sarawak the President and deputy both did not attend the convention. Is this a signal that PKR has handed over all the dun seats to GPS? Roland quickly replied that PKR will still contest in Sarawak. The absence of the president and deputy is our party's strategy - said Roland. We want to give a signal to the people of Sarawak that we can make a decision to fight GPS without instructions from the president or the party leadership at the federal level. We PKR Sarawak have our own autonomy and power. So because of that, in my basic speech, I have emphasized that PKR will still compete in the general election that will be held in Sarawak and we are confident that we will perform better. With the increase of PKR members in Sarawak so suddenly and this is a sign of PKR - the prime minister's party being supported by the people of Sarawak - especially the young generation. According to Roland, this convention is a training ground for party activists to use digital data to win elections. It was driven by Sarawak's own young people and in the next few months the voting pattern will be more visible - Said Roland. I will declare at the right time- that ph/pkr is the main party that will compete with GPS in Sarawak. In this convention, PKR launched the latest line of election machinery at the state level.

*Merakai Village Faces Corporate Aggression: Residents Demand Compensation for NCR Land*
Merakai village residents have set up a blockade to prevent the Tridewind Melor Gemilang plantation company from harvesting palm oil. The blockade was initiated after the company, which claimed to be in a joint venture with the people of Merakai village, failed to deliver on its promise to return a portion of the revenue to the villagers who own the land. 
Tr. Keliang ak Suat said that, the blockade has been in place for 2 months and 20 days. Yesterday, the company reportedly sent 60 individuals armed with sharp weapons and clubs to dismantle the blockade under the guise of negotiation. Feeling threatened, the villagers acted aggressively to defend their blockade. No discussion took place, and the residents are demanding compensation for their NCR land, which is part of the Melor Gemilang oil palm plantation area. If compensation is not paid, they insist that the land be returned to them. 
The village head has stated that the blockade will not be lifted until their demands are met. The villagers are aware that the company may continue to apply pressure and bring more thugs in the future, so they are calling on activists in Sarawak, Malaysia, and internationally for support. Keliang ak Suat expressed gratitude to RFS for providing a platform to voice their concerns.

Dennis Along, President of Tering Miri Community Association
*From Logging to Carbon Trading: Tering-Berawan Question Government's Intentions*
Today, almost all local newspapers in Sarawak reported the Tering-Berawan community's protest against the expansion of the Mulu National Park to include the Tutoh Apoh area, which is set to be named Tutoh Apoh National Park. Despite the general purpose of national parks being to protect biodiversity, ecosystems, endangered habitats, flora, and fauna, and to avoid excessive development, the Tering-Berawan community objects to this expansion. According to Dennis, this is not the intention of the Sarawak government through the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC). 
Dennis explained that all the areas proposed for the expansion of the Mulu National Park are the lands of the Tering-Berawan communities, which have been damaged and logged by logging companies. This area was previously given as a logging concession to Abu Bekir Taib through Radian Lagoon and is now proposed to be changed into a national park. Dennis believes that the SFC has hidden intentions, either to seize their native customary rights (NCR) land or to cover up the damage caused by previous logging activities. He highlighted that this area is crucial for agriculture and residential purposes. If the area is entirely converted into a national park, the community would struggle to find food and forest products. Dennis noted that the current Mulu National Park is already extensive, covering 52,000 hectares, compared to the 4,400 hectares of NCR land they are defending.
Dennis suspects that the Sarawak government, through the SFC, intends to gazette the land as a national park and later convert it into a carbon trading zone. Yesterday, Dennis and his friends visited the SFC office to deliver a protest letter, demanding the proposed expansion be cancelled. They were informed by the Sarawak Dayak Iban Association (SADIA) that residents in Batang Ai are also protesting the expansion of Batang Ai National Park in Lubok Antu.
Regarding the Sarawak Premier's proposal to tighten environmental and national park laws to include fines and prison terms, Dennis expressed his full support. However, he insisted that the law should not only be used against the weak. He pointed out that the logging licenses are issued by members of the GPS party, implying that the Premier should first act against his own party members.

Dennis Along, President of Tering Miri Community Association
*From Logging to Carbon Trading: Tering-Berawan Question Government's Intentions*
Today, almost all local newspapers in Sarawak reported the Tering-Berawan community's protest against the expansion of the Mulu National Park to include the Tutoh Apoh area, which is set to be named Tutoh Apoh National Park. Despite the general purpose of national parks being to protect biodiversity, ecosystems, endangered habitats, flora, and fauna, and to avoid excessive development, the Tering-Berawan community objects to this expansion. According to Dennis, this is not the intention of the Sarawak government through the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC).

Mutang Tuo, Head of Long Iman Penan Village, Mulu.
*Shin Yang Intimidates Penan Villagers Over Carbon Trading Opposition*
Mutang Tuo, the head of Long Iman village, shared with RFS that the residents of Long Iman (more than 60 households) are striving to repair their houses, which were severely damaged by heavy floods. According to Mutang, major floods now occur two or three times a year, which he attributes to logging and farming activities in the Mulu area. The main logging companies operating in the Tutoh river area are Shin Yang and Samling. When floods hit, piles of logs get washed away, demolishing their houses. Mutang also mentioned that there used to be a plywood processing factory upstream, which has now closed.
Mutang highlighted three primary concerns troubling the community:
1. The carbon trading project
2. The construction of the Tutoh Dam
3. The expansion of Taman Negara Mulu up to Long Besanan
He explained that the proposed expansion of the Mulu National Park is very close to the Penan people's settlement, only 30 minutes by boat. The community objects to this expansion because it encroaches on their hunting grounds and areas where they gather forest products for crafts. They also oppose the construction of the cascading Tutoh Dam, as it would take away their land. Additionally, they are against the carbon trading project due to the anticipated legal restrictions on their movement.
A few days ago, representatives from Shin Yang began investigating the villagers. Those who signed a form opposing the carbon trading project are allegedly being threatened with court action. Shin Yang representatives visit the village almost every week to intimidate those who oppose the project. Mutang emphasized that Shin Yang and Samling should compensate the community every time a flood occurs, as these floods are a direct result of the logging activities.

Dennis Along, Resident of Long Terawan, Mulu
*Dennis Demands Accountability for Environmental Destruction Tied to GPS Leaders*
At the World Herpetology Conference held at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) on Monday, Sarawak Premier Johari Openg announced that Sarawak is considering implementing harsher punishments for environmental criminals, including fines and imprisonment. According to Johari, Sarawak's Attorney General is conducting a study to improve the national park law and the environmental ordinance, which have significant weaknesses. The Attorney General will make recommendations, which will then be brought to the State Legislative Assembly (DUN) for approval.
Dennis, a Sarawakian environmental activist, expressed his support for Johari's proposal. However, he pointed out that the primary culprits behind the environmental destruction in Sarawak, from Kuching to the interior regions, are allegedly the cronies of the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS). Dennis mentioned Deputy Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change, Huang Tiong Sii, whose logging company is involved in deforestation activities in the land areas of Baram and Belaga residents. Despite some residents blocking these activities, the companies, MM Golden and UU Green, which are wholly owned by Huang and his family, have continued logging operations forcefully and secretly.
Dennis hopes that stricter law enforcement will result in fines and imprisonment for Huang and his family. He also mentioned that Huang might have to resign from his deputy minister position due to a conflict of interest, as per the conditions set by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
Dennis highlighted another example of environmental exploitation in Mulu, where the family of former Sarawak Chief Minister Taib Mahmud owns significant land within Mulu National Park. Raziah Mahmud, Taib Mahmud's sister, runs hotel and tourism businesses in the area, while Taib Mahmud's son, Abu Bekir, through Titanium and Radian Lagoon, owns 4,400 hectares of land in Mulu. Recently, the Sarawak government, through the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC), plans to gazette 4,300 hectares of the NCR Long Terawan land to create the Tutoh-Apoh National Park.
Dennis announced his intention to lodge an objection at the SFC office in Miri, armed with all the evidence he mentioned. He urged Premier Johari Openg to take decisive action against the family of former Chief Minister Taib Mahmud, rather than targeting ordinary citizens.

Gereng Jadum, Residents of Penan Metalun, Murum
*Broken Promises and Layoffs: The Penan's Battle for Fair Treatment*
Since the Penan were moved to the Tegulang and Metalun settlements in 2013 to make way for the construction of the Murum Dam, they have expected a better life than in their original place. However, after four years in the new Murum settlement, the monthly subsistence allowance of RM850 per family was stopped. The government had initially promised to continue providing subsistence assistance until the Penan people became independent and had their own income. Unfortunately, on May 28, 2024, 126 Penan Murum employees were laid off by the Danum Sinar company, where they worked as manual laborers in the company's oil palm plantations.
On July 28, 2024, these 126 Penan set up a blockade, dissatisfied with being fired without notice. On July 31, 2024, Danum Sinar requested a period of three weeks to resolve the problem after the labor department and the police became involved. Now, the 126 laid-off workers are hoping for success in negotiations led by their lawyers. The Penan people are demanding compensation for being laid off and are also demanding that the Kelayan and Lakin Estates be given to them so they can manage the two farms themselves. In total, Danum Sinar owns six oil palm estates in Murum.
When asked why their demand is rational, Gereng explained that the palm oil estates were opened on their land, so they have the right to them. They have already established their own company to manage the farm. Although Gereng is still working with Danum Sinar, he feels compelled to speak up on behalf of his dismissed colleagues. "I'm not afraid of being fired. I still speak up for my friends who were fired without notice," he said. Gereng also revealed that the Indonesian workers employed to replace the dismissed Penan do not have valid work permits.

Gereng Jadum, Residents of Penan Metalun, Murum Resettlement area
*Job Cuts and Blockades: The Penan's Struggle in Murum*
On July 27, 2024, three Penan villages in Murum, namely Long Lua, Long Menapa, and Long Tangau, initiated a blockade in front of the Danum Sinar Estate Arau farm. This action was a protest against the abrupt dismissal of 126 Penan workers by Danum Sinar without the mandated three months' notice. For the past six years, these Penan individuals had been employed as oil palm fruit pickers in the Kelayan Estate and Lakin Estate areas. Danum Sinar, a plantation company owned by billionaires from peninsular Malaysia, manages six estates in the Murum area, including Estate Arau, Estate Marung 1, Estate Marung 2, Estate Jabon, Estate Lakin, and Estate Kelayan.
On May 28, 2024, Danum Sinar terminated the services of the 126 Penan workers, citing financial difficulties as the reason for their inability to pay salaries and manage administrative expenses. However, Gereng Jadum, a Penan leader, believes this to be a mere pretext, pointing out that the company subsequently hired foreign workers from Indonesia to replace the dismissed Penan laborers.
In response to their dismissal, the Penan people sought the assistance of YB Senator Abun Sui, requesting him to write a letter to Danum Sinar. Additionally, they enlisted the help of a Chinese lawyer to represent them legally. On July 31, 2024, the blockade was temporarily halted to facilitate negotiations between the Danum Sinar management, the police, the Sarawak Labor Department, Penan lawyers, and Penan residents. The Penan community, led by Gereng, demanded compensation and job opportunities, along with the management of the Kelayan Estate being handed over to them. Gereng warned that failure to meet their demands would result in the reinstatement of the blockade.
The Penan people, resettled in the Murum area to make way for the Murum dam construction, have faced ongoing challenges since their relocation. The Sarawak government has yet to provide basic facilities, job opportunities, or agricultural plots for Penan farmers. Communication issues in the remote regions of Sarawak have further complicated the situation, making it difficult for external parties, including RFS, to establish contact with Gereng and his community until recently.</itunes:summary>

However, Gereng Jadum, a Penan leader, believes this to be a mere pretext, pointing out that the company subsequently hired foreign workers from Indonesia to replace the dismissed Penan laborers.
In response to their dismissal, the Penan people sought the assistance of YB Senator Abun Sui, requesting him to write a letter to Danum Sinar. Additionally, they enlisted the help of a Chinese lawyer to represent them legally. On July 31, 2024, the blockade was temporarily halted to facilitate negotiations between the Danum Sinar management, the police, the Sarawak Labor Department, Penan lawyers, and Penan residents. The Penan community, led by Gereng, demanded compensation and job opportunities, along with the management of the Kelayan Estate being handed over to them. Gereng warned that failure to meet their demands would result in the reinstatement of the blockade.
The Penan people, resettled in the Murum area to make way for the Murum dam construction, have faced ongoing challenges since their relocation. The Sarawak government has yet to provide basic facilities, job opportunities, or agricultural plots for Penan farmers. Communication issues in the remote regions of Sarawak have further complicated the situation, making it difficult for external parties, including RFS, to establish contact with Gereng and his community until recently.</description>

Peter Ero, Resident of Uma Badeng Bakun Resettlement Scheme
*Environmental Crisis: Log Jams in Sarawak Rivers Hinder Local Communities*
A recent report by the Facebook social page "BakunParadise" highlights a severe log jam in the Danum River upstream of the Murum Dam. According to the information provided, the log jam is attributed to both logging activities and wood waste that was not properly cleaned before the dam containment process. Peter, an informant, explained that the accumulation of logging waste and inadequately cleared wood during the dam's impoundment has resulted in significant environmental issues.
Peter further elaborated that the situation in the Danum and Murum rivers mirrors similar occurrences in the Belepeh and Linau rivers in Bakun. The extensive dumping of hundreds of thousands of tons of wood has created substantial difficulties for the local communities, particularly fishermen who struggle to catch fish. Navigating through the log-covered areas can take at least two hours, severely hampering their movement and daily activities.
In Bakun, there was previously a company appointed to clean the log jams, receiving a monthly payment of RM2 million. However, the current handling of the situation remains unclear, according to Peter Ero. He expressed concerns over the inefficiency of the log jam cleaning contract, stating that the work is often incomplete despite payments being made.
For the log jam in the Danum River upstream of the Murum Dam, a Penan friend who wished to remain anonymous revealed that Shin Yang Timber Company operates upstream, along with two oil palm plantation companies, Adam Estate and Semalong Estate. Mr. X, the anonymous source, suggested that these companies are also contributing to the log jam.
Murum residents have raised complaints about the log jam to the local assemblyman for several years, yet no cleanup efforts have been undertaken. There is growing frustration and suspicion among the community regarding the lack of action by the Forest Department and the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) against the logging and oil palm plantation companies responsible for the severe environmental pollution. There is speculation that Shin Yang's wealth and connections with the GPS minister may be a factor in the inaction. The community hopes that logging will be halted and the log jam cleared to facilitate their movements upriver for hunting and fishing.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni- Sarawak PKR Strategy Director.
*Iswardy Confirms PKR’s Participation in 2026 Sarawak Election: A Game Changer?*
The hottest political issue discussed in Sarawak for the past week is whether PKR will contest in the 2026 Sarawak state election. PBB vice president Karim Rahman Hamzah said it is not appropriate for PKR/PH to contest. In order to maintain the security of the prime minister until the end of the term. Karim also said that it is not appropriate for PKR to contest because in the past it lost all the seats and this time it may also lose. Iswardy insisted that, whatever the situation - PKR / PH will still compete. According to Iswardy- the scenario at the moment is different from the past in Sarawak. At that time Anwar Ibrahim was not the prime minister and Ph was not the ruling party. Now Anwar is the prime minister and Ph is the main party of the unity government. Will pkr compete affect the unity government in the federation. Iswardy said- won't affect. Because the unity government is only in the federation and will only be re-formed by any party that agrees to join after the election. While in Sarawak there is no formation of a unity government and GPS itself refuses to cooperate in forming a unity government at the state level. So we have no ties and GPS has no right to prohibit us from contesting in the next state election. I'm not saying PKR/PH Sarawak will definitely win. But our chances in the next Sarawak prn will be brighter. Iswardy revealed that PKR Sarawak will hold a congress at the state level in August to streamline the election machinery to face the state election in 2026. We will make sure that we have enough time to prepare to face the Sarawak state election.</itunes:summary>

Willie Kajan, Tour Guide from Long Terawan, Mulu
*Community-Driven Tourism: Willie Kajan Advocates for Local Benefits in Sarawak*
Willie Kajan is a tourist guide in two national park areas, Mulu National Park and Niah Cave National Park. Last weekend Unesco recognized the archaeological Heritage Site of Niah Cave as a new Unesco world heritage site. Making Sarawak have 2 unesco recognized world heritage sites. For Willie, this is a huge recognition and will bring new tourist attractions to Sarawak. However, according to Willie, the facilities to Niah Cave are so disappointing. The condition of the accommodation hotel, public facilities such as toilets and eating places is quite bad and needs to be upgraded immediately. Before the construction of Pan Borneo- the road to Niah Cave was so bad and narrow. Now it's quite good after Pan Borneo is ready. The situation at the Gunung Mulu World Heritage Site (2000) is quite satisfactory. Flights from Miri to Mulu every day. Traveling by river takes about 1 day while traveling by road takes 8 hours. Small craft businesses run by local people. However, I expect that local residents who are not working or involved in the tourism industry will be given some return in the form of royalties. Currently Mulu National Park is managed by SFC and Borsarmulu. Willie emphasized that taking care of the environment and maintaining the original and natural habitat in our forest is important for the long-term sustainability of the forest. Currently, hot temperatures are hitting almost all districts in Sarawak. I believe this is due to deforestation in Sarawak and also in other places in the world. Therefore, we in Baram have been campaigning "Zero Logging" for a long time to save the forest and save this most unique World Heritage Site. Both the Mount Mulu World Heritage Site and the Unesco World Archaeological Heritage Site Gua Niah are located within the Miri/Baram Area. I urge the Sarawak government to seriously stop logging. Stop the granting of oil palm plantation licenses and stop the dam construction plan.</itunes:summary>

Tr. Panting ak Baling, Head of Sg Agricultural Heritage Village. patin, Similajau Bintulu.
*Villagers Detained by SFC for Harvesting in Contested National Park Area*
Panting gave an update on what happened last Friday night. While the residents are collecting agricultural produce in their gardens. 3 villagers of agricultural heritage were arrested by SFC authorities. They were detained for several hours at the SFC HQ in Similajau. Realizing that, all the villagers gathered along the road leading to the SFC HQ. By 4pm the three were released. The problem faced by the residents is that they are driven out and are not allowed to collect their agricultural produce which is included in the Similajau National Park area (addition). During the administration of Sarawak chief minister Adenan Satem. Adenan visited the village and gave permission for the villagers to cultivate agriculture and Adenan also ordered the Land and Survey department to measure and issue a map of the agricultural lot for the residents involved. Unfortunately before the process is complete. Adenan Satem united the world. The Johari Openg administration has canceled the grant of the agricultural lot and approved the addition/expansion of the Similajau National Park to include the Sungai Patin Agricultural Heritage village. According to Village Chief Panting ak Baling. Even if the National Park is expanded. Our crops and gardens should be compensated. We should be given time and should still be given the opportunity to harvest our agricultural produce because that is the source of our income. We have all the evidence of dialogue and photos and documents with Adenan and all the departments involved during the agricultural lot approval process for us. The SFC challenged us to take the case to court. But we are aware that we will lose in court. Because they control all the information and we have no money to take our case to court. We appeal to YB Datuk Majang Renggie - Samalaju area assemblyman. YB did not want to interfere and even asked us not to fight the SFC. In these few days we have not entered the forbidden area. The situation is very tense now. We will set up a blockade in the near future. After getting the consent of all the villagers.

Ben Lenjau- Resident of Uma Sambop Batu Pilau, Belaga
*Illegal Logging in Belaga: Deputy Minister-Linked Companies Under Fire*
Last July 2023 rfs reported an incident of illegal logging in Uma Long Bangan Belaga. Two logging companies named M.M Golden and U.U Green are each linked to the deputy minister of natural resources, environment and climate change- Huang Tiong Sii. Residents of Long Bangan objected to the illegal logging and filed a police report. But the latest development is now that the same company (known as Babi company) by the locals has infiltrated Uma Sambop. Ben Lenjau said, these few days the residents of Uma Sambop tried to stop the logging that was done across the long house of Uma Sambop. Further intelligence shows that the company has logged in the most extensive part, namely in Penyuan - this is also the area of Uma Sambop's land - according to Ben. Ben and the residents in the next few days will collect information and will make a report to the police and SPRM. For now we are not sure what to do. Because we still lack information and most of the people living in the village are the elderly - the young and educated are in the city to work. For the record M.M Golden is a logging company that was once chased away by Baram residents for trying to enter the Baram dam site to log. Now the same company is in the Belaga river. Is it because Sungai Belaga is proposed to be dammed by the Premier of Sarawak - Johari Openg.

Ben Lenjau- Resident of Uma Sambop Batu Pilau, Belaga
*Illegal Logging in Belaga: Deputy Minister-Linked Companies Under Fire*
Last July 2023 rfs reported an incident of illegal logging in Uma Long Bangan Belaga. Two logging companies named M.M Golden and U.U Green are each linked to the deputy minister of natural resources, environment and climate change- Huang Tiong Sii. Residents of Long Bangan objected to the illegal logging and filed a police report. But the latest development is now that the same company (known as Babi company) by the locals has infiltrated Uma Sambop. Ben Lenjau said, these few days the residents of Uma Sambop tried to stop the logging that was done across the long house of Uma Sambop. Further intelligence shows that the company has logged in the most extensive part, namely in Penyuan - this is also the area of Uma Sambop's land - according to Ben.

Nick Kelesau, spokesman for the Penan Keruan Organization
*Tensions Rise Between Penan Leaders Supporting Logging and Penan Communities Opposing It*
Nick reported that the logging company appointed by GPS/Borneoland Timber resources sdn.bhd-has started a smear campaign against NGOs that oppose logging in the Taman Damai Baram-UBFA area. According to Nick, lately many meetings have been arranged by the company involved with the Penan people and with YB of the Baram and Dun Mulu areas. The Penan people who are affected by the anti-BMF campaign, SAVE RIVERS AND THE Penan Keruan Organization forbid these NGOs to speak or give their views. They erected a banner that said bmf and supporters were not allowed to interfere with the ongoing project in the Ba Data Bila area. BMF and their supporters have no rights in the Ba Data Bila area and we Ba Data Bila residents fully support the efforts of the Premier of Sarawak and the Balak company to make projects in our area. The intended project is to build a road from Ba Data Bila to Long Lelang and all over the land and build houses for four penan communities in Ba Data Bila, Ba Mubui, Ba Sebatou and Ba Pengaran Kelian. Nick insisted that Penan did not prevent development but the way the mentioned projects were done was wrong. Just by building roads, our logs are cut down greedily. The logging company wants to build a road to Long Lelang while cutting logs in the area it passes through. All this is not allowed in the original plan of UBFA. Even the original UBFA plan also included the development of infrastructure for the penan community. With transparent funds from the Japanese and Korean governments as well as donations from NGOs such as BMF. Why do penan groups led by Pemanca Uning Bong and Penghulu Daud anger the BMF and other parties over penan poverty. These two Penan leaders should have angered GPS because the Penan people's forest has been looted but they have still failed to build a basic infrastructure for the Penan people.

Tr. Panting ak Baling, Head of Sg Agricultural Heritage Village. Batin Similajau - Bintulu.
*From Detention to Defiance: The Villagers' Struggle for Their Farm Land*
Panting informed that Jalani and his wife were detained by SFC enforcement officers for entering their garden to collect palm oil and coffee beans. While they were working, they were surprised when SFC enforcers arrested them and took them to the SFC HQ. The villagers gathered in large numbers to exert pressure so that the SFC enforcers would release Jalani and his wife. Their efforts were successful, and Jalani and his wife were later released. However, when they brought Jalani to make a police report about the incident, he looked scared and did not dare to speak. Efforts to make a report failed because he was scared and seemed to lose his memory. Therefore, Tr. Panting, as the head of the village, made a police report and informed that the villagers would enter their farm land to collect agricultural produce, such as harvesting palm oil and coffee.
Additionally, the villagers have been banned from entering their farms since April 2024, and now they have no other way to obtain economic resources or buy food for the children at home. During the interview with the head of Panting village, an SFC patrol car with seven members arrived and warned the villagers to stop working. However, the residents ignored the warning and continued to work. The SFC cut down some oil palm trees to prevent residents from taking out their agricultural produce, but the residents still managed to bring their agricultural produce out using several other roads. The villagers are unsure of what actions the SFC will take next.

Ujan ak Lalong, resident of Rumah Rima Sungai Kelawit ,Tatau- Bintulu
*Expired License Ignored: Tatau Longhouses Unite Against Illegal Quarry and Logging Activities*
Ujan reports that it has been 10 days since the residents of 10 longhouses along the Kelawit river staged a blockade to prevent the Stone Head quarry company - a subsidiary of TAAN from continuing to break and unload stones in their land area. The license/permit to mine stone issued by the government to this company has expired. However, the company is still working on processing and breaking the quarry stone. So we stopped them from continuing the work of Ujan ak Lalong. Not even our problem with the quarry company is over- a logging company is entering our ncr land. The company Capter Group belongs to billionaire Datuk Hee. We are asking our leaders in these 10 longhouses together to solve the problem of our encroached land. But they refuse, maybe they have received remuneration from logging or quarry companies. They should stop or at least demand compensation for us poor longhouse residents. But they don't want to speak on our behalf. For now we blockade and report this case to Penghulu. The headman informed us that he would call all 10 village leaders and ask them why they did not help solve the problems faced by the villagers.</itunes:summary>

Tuai Rumah Keliang  anak Suat, head of Merakai village, Serian
*Sarawak Day at the Blockade: Merakai Villagers Stand Firm for Land Rights*
Tuai Rumah Keliang reported that he and 95 villagers who blockaded against the company Trade Winds/Melor Gemilang Plantation were celebrating Sarawak Day 22/7 at the blockade site inside the Palm Oil Plantation Area. The irony is that Sarawak has been independent for more than 61 years, so the people should not have to blockade anymore to claim their rights and land ownership. Residents of Merakai village celebrated Sarawak Day under close supervision by the police and security enforcement. According to him, we have been blocked for over a month and last week our lawyer had a consultation with the tradewinde plantation company. If the company agrees to our proposal/ is adequately compensated. We will stop the blockade. If not, the blockade will continue indefinitely. My message to the people of Sarawak who are facing the problem of land grabbing. Do not give up. If the land is yours and your right. You must dare to fight until your goal is achieved. Once again happy Sarawak day from us Merakai villagers from Trade Winds- Serian farm blockade site. My message to the Sarawak GPS government, return our rights to our ancestral heritage.</itunes:summary>

-------------------

Micheal Mering Jok, secretary general of the Sarawak indigenous people's rights organization (SCRIPS)
*Empowering Indigenous Voices: The Role of Territory Mapping in Land Rights*
Micheal invited all the people of Sarawak who own NCR land to attend the one-day seminar/workshop that will take place on 27 July 2024. Located in MYY mall Miri. Participants will be taught to draw their own longhouse traditional territory boundaries. Micheal explained that each longhouse in the past had their own territory which was administered by the king for their respective tribes. The inj matter lasted until the time of Brooke's administration and during the British administration. But after Sarawak became independent and together formed Malaysia. The Political Party that governs Sarawak established the Sarawak land canon based on the principle of Terra Nullius - meaning no one owns land and all land belongs to the government. This is where the land ownership conflict in Sarawak began. How is it possible that the indigenous people who have occupied their land for hundreds of years and tens of generations can be deprived of their rights in an instant by a piece of land document drafted by a ruling party. SCRIPS will teach the indigenous people to write their own history and draw their own village boundary maps and will press the government to recognize the Dayak people's rights to their ncr land. Asked about the decision of the federal court which ruled that Dayak customary practices have no legal force to confirm customary land ownership. Micheal insists that the decision of the federal court in the Tuai Rumah Sandah case is 'inaccurate'. It happened due to some technical errors and there will be in the future another judge will make a different decision. Is it possible that the community map produced by a longhouse will conflict with the NTD map sec 6. Micheal explained that longhouses that existed after Jan 1, 1958 are eligible to apply for NTD- given at the discretion of the minister. But longhouses that have a clear and long history before the arrival of Rajah Brooke no longer need to apply for NTD (because it is their land) and the government must recognize and confirm the map. The more communities that have a map of the border of the customary territory - the stronger their demands will be and the government will finally agree. I implore you all to be present and we begin an effort to save our land from being seized or encroached upon by those who do not respect our rights.

Micheal Mering Jok, secretary general of the Sarawak indigenous people's rights organization (SCRIPS)
*Empowering Indigenous Voices: The Role of Territory Mapping in Land Rights*
Micheal invited all the people of Sarawak who own NCR land to attend the one-day seminar/workshop that will take place on 27 July 2024. Located in MYY mall Miri. Participants will be taught to draw their own longhouse traditional territory boundaries. Micheal explained that each longhouse in the past had their own territory which was administered by the king for their respective tribes. The inj matter lasted until the time of Brooke's administration and during the British administration. But after Sarawak became independent and together formed Malaysia. The Political Party that governs Sarawak established the Sarawak land canon based on the principle of Terra Nullius - meaning no one owns land and all land belongs to the government. This is where the land ownership conflict in Sarawak began. How is it possible that the indigenous people who have occupied their land for hundreds of years and tens of generations can be deprived of their rights in an instant by a piece of land document drafted by a ruling party. SCRIPS will teach the indigenous people to write their own history and draw their own village boundary maps and will press the government to recognize the Dayak people's rights to their ncr land. Asked about the decision of the federal court which ruled that Dayak customary practices have no legal force to confirm customary land ownership. Micheal insists that the decision of the federal court in the Tuai Rumah Sandah case is 'inaccurate'. It happened due to some technical errors and there will be in the future another judge will make a different decision. Is it possible that the community map produced by a longhouse will conflict with the NTD map sec 6. Micheal explained that longhouses that existed after Jan 1, 1958 are eligible to apply for NTD- given at the discretion of the minister.

John Brian, Sarawak Political Analyst
*Issues of Silence and Exploitation in Bintulu Port Development*
Yesterday, all 23 Sarawak GPS MPs expressed their happiness when the People's Assembly passed the Bintulu Port Board (Dissolution) Bill 2024 and the Bill declaring Bintulu a federal port (dissolution) 2024. Deputy Prime Minister Fadilah Yusuf thanked the Prime Minister. John Brian, a Sarawakian, shared his joy, stating, "As a Sarawakian, I certainly feel happy." He added that he knows the history of Bintulu Port well, having served as its chairman in 2018.
Brian explained that Bintulu Port was developed with federal funds through PETRONAS to export natural gas to Japan and Korea. He questioned why the GPS had not spoken up about this sooner. He suggested that the BN's strong power at the federal level and GPS's fear at the state level were the reasons for their silence. He also criticized BN for not being sincere towards Sarawak, citing their exploitation of Sarawak's resources.
However, with the political changes before and after PRU15, the return of Bintulu Port under MA63 became possible. Before PH's victory, Anwar Ibrahim promised to return all Sarawak rights, and after PH won in PRU15, he fulfilled his promise. Brian emphasized that these efforts were not due to GPS but to PH and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's goodwill. He urged the people of Sarawak to vote for PKR/PH in the next election, as this party has proven to be honest and has good intentions to help the people of Sarawak.

Agnes Padan, Human rights activist from Lawas.
*Improving MyKad Access: The Next Step for Citizenship Rights*
Today, Agnes shares the persistence of a family in obtaining citizenship rights for their child. After trying for 14 years, last Monday, the long-awaited MyKad was finally claimed from the Putrajaya NRD office. According to Agnes, the MyKad application for this male teenager started when he was 12 years old. Now, he is almost married, self-employed, and lives in Kampung Buangsiol, Limbang. 
Recently, there have been many successful MyKad applications for Category 15A, which are citizenship applications for children whose fathers are Malaysian citizens. However, according to Agnes, citizenship applications for foreign women married to Malaysian men have not yet been successful. She hopes that the government will simplify citizenship matters for those who are entitled and have complete documents.
Agnes also hopes that the expectation of the people of Lawas district for a new hospital will be fulfilled this year. The hospital building currently in use was built in 1969 and only provides daily medical services. There are no specialist doctor services available. Agnes questions why Lawas, a district, should only have a health clinic when it should have a full hospital.
She points out that many do not know that Lawas is located in the northern part of Sarawak, bordering Brunei and Indonesia, and neighboring Sabah. Due to its geography and border-crossing issues, the lives of the people of Lawas are in danger every day during emergencies. Agnes hopes that the construction of the new hospital will be completed this year, as the community has been waiting too long. Health facilities and citizenship rights are the most basic human rights, according to Agnes Padan.

Andrew Paul, Deputy Secretary General of SADIA
*From Victory to Uncertainty: Kampung Merakai's Land Rights Struggle*
Andrew Paul has reported that the 95-door residents of Kampung Merakai in Serian have established a blockade to defend their land rights against encroachment by the Trade Winds company. The residents demand that Trade Winds vacate their land. Paul noted that this dispute is likely to endure a prolonged court process.
Historically, before 2018, the residents successfully sued the DDT Pelita plantation company, with the court ruling in favor of Kampung Merakai. However, following the 2018 federal court decision in the Tuai Rumah Sandah case, which ruled that Dayak custom has no legal effect on Native Customary Rights (NCR) land ownership, palm oil plantation companies have perceived a renewed opportunity to reclaim previously lost cases. Consequently, Trade Winds has brought the case to court again under a different company name, aiming to leverage the 2018 ruling to secure a favorable judgment.
Paul explained that plantation companies have been emboldened by the 2018 decision and Sarawak's subsequent land law amendment, which restricts village land to only 500 hectares, with the possibility of appealing for an additional 500 hectares to the minister in charge of land. This legislative change is seen as detrimental and unfair to the Dayak community, which traditionally manages much larger areas of NCR land.
To address the persistent NCR land issues, Paul emphasized that any political party will respond to the will of the people if they unite and express their demands. He argued that if the Dayak community unites and overthrows the GPS, the subsequent ruling party would be compelled to formulate policies that reflect the Dayak's interests and wishes. Paul criticized the government's arbitrary determination of village land limits and highlighted the significant discrepancy between the imposed 500-hectare limit and the much larger traditional NCR areas, such as the average 12,000 hectares per longhouse in Baram, as cited by Harrison Ngau.
Paul's advocacy underscores the need for political unity among the Dayak community to secure fair and just land policies that respect their customary practices and rights.</itunes:summary>

Dominic Langat- Resident of Penan Long Tungan Ulu Baram
*Sarawak Premier's Comments Spark Outrage Among Rural Residents*
Dominic commented and criticized the statement of Sarawak Premier Johari Openg who said that "People who have a Hilux (4x4) who live outside the city are not the poor category, if they are really poor. They don't have a Hilux". 
The Sarawak Premier's statement shows that he really does not understand the problems of rural residents. We bought a Hilux because it was a necessity. Without a 4x4 car. We won't be able to move anywhere. The bad condition of the deep road can only be passed by 4x4 car, and even then it has to travel 5 to 8 hours. We also want to buy a small and cheap car. But this small car will 100% never reach our village. Will break down and end up in the middle of the road. Because of the bad road to the interior of Sarawak. Car maintenance costs are very high. This greatly burdens our lives. So much so that we live very stressed and most of our income is spent to pay the 4x4 car installment only. The question is how do we buy a car if we are poor. Most of us buy 4x4s using the names of our children who have payslips working in the city. Most banks did not approve our loan application because there was no permanent job. Because we use the names of our working children. So we have to work hard to find money to pay our monthly installments every month. I hope the Premier of Sarawak does not make media statements without first checking the real facts of an issue. Now in peninsular Malaysia (Sabah/Sarawak excluded for now) the government is implementing a policy targeting diesel fuel. The price of diesel was floated making the price of diesel rm3.35 per liter compared to the previous rm2.15 per litre. We are worried if the government thinks we are rich in the countryside.  Then we will face another problem, the diesel subsidy for us will be withdrawn. The Premier of Sarawak should give an accurate report to the central government. A few years ago Premier Johari Openg said that he would drive a small car from Long Lama to the Penan settlement of Long Kevok. To make roads in the interior of Sarawak safe and comfortable. Until now, the Premier has still not managed to fulfill his promise. I can only use my tires for 3-4 months only need to be replaced. Compared to those who live in the city can use their car tires for more than a year. This is a picture of the difficulties that we rural people face every day - Dominic Langat said.</itunes:summary>

Nick Kelesau Naan, Spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization, Baram Sarawak
*Manipulation and Media: How Borneoland Timber Attempts to Legitimize Logging in Penan Territory*
Nick explained about the contradiction between two media statements issued by the BMF and answered by the Sarawak Forestry Department regarding the alleged logging by the Borneoland Timber Resources Company in the UBFA/Taman Damai Baram area. BMF claims/with photo evidence that logging has occurred and threatens the tropical rainforest in Hulu Baram Ba Data Bila. However, the Director of the Forest Department explained that it was an effort to build roads, bridges, houses for the Penan people and other facilities to improve the standard of living of the Penan people. Yes, the Penan people want infrastructure but not logging. - said Nick. The consultation that was done a few months ago - the Penan people agreed that a road and bridge should be built to Ba Data Bila and Ba Mubui and when it is ready. So the company should get out of the Penan forest. Now the road and bridge construction works have been completed, but Borneoland does not want to leave and instead continues the road construction to Ba Benalie and Long Pengaran. The result of the Penan people's observation. While building the road this company cut down trees on the left and right of the road, leading to logging. This is what the Penan people objected to. Despite strong objections, the company ignored the residents' objections. This company is trying to prove that their logging activities are supported by the state government, the forest department and even supported by Sarawak Premier Johari Openg.  Even on 11 July 2024, when the Premier of Sarawak visited Miri to inaugurate the new SJKC Pei Min Middle School. Tauke Borneoland Timber brought a group of Penan people to meet and take pictures with Premier Johari Openg. According to Nick this is to show that the Borneoland company is supported by the Premier and the Sarawak State Government. Prime Minister Johari Openg on 8 June 2024- said there is no more logging politics in Sarawak, but in early July he supported the logging company cutting wood in the Penan reserve forest. Should the people of Sarawak believe the words that come out of the mouth of Sarawak Premier Johari Openg?.</itunes:summary>

Celine Lim, Managing Director of Save Rivers Networks
*Sarawak Government Denies Illegal Logging Allegations Despite Mounting Evidence*
The Bruno Manser Fonds (BMF) has reported, with photo evidence, massive logging in the Ba Data Bila Penan village area in Hulu Baram. This area is part of the Upper Baram Forest Area (UBFA), which is being developed as a forest conservation area for long-term community benefits. The UBFA is a collaborative program involving international parties, the Malaysian and Sarawak governments, and the local NGO Save Rivers Network. 
The logging activity, as referred to by BMF, is being conducted by billionaire Hii King Chiong through the company Borneoland Timber. Hii is linked as a crony of former Sarawak Chief Minister Taib Mahmud. A day after the BMF media statement, the Sarawak government, through Sarawak Forest Department Director Datuk Hamden Mohammad, declared the BMF's claims false. According to the Sarawak government, the activity is a joint venture to build houses, roads, bridges, and provide truck delivery services for Penan children to attend school. The previously concessioned timber company has been replaced by a new company created by the Sarawak government with the consent of the Penan people.
Celine Lim expressed surprise at the Sarawak government's statement through the director of the Forest Department. She questioned why stakeholders and the Penan community, who are part of the UBFA steering committee, were not informed. A few months ago, Save Rivers Network wrote an official letter to the forest department and the Sarawak king seeking an explanation. Lim criticized the government's preference for communicating through media statements rather than directly with the concerned parties. She emphasized that the Sarawak government's unilateral actions, portraying their approach as the most correct, are opposed by the Penan. The current actions did not go through the UBFA committee.
On June 8, 2024, Sarawak Premier Johari Openg stated that there is no more "log politics" in Sarawak and that the state is moving towards a green economy, committing not to cut down forests. He claimed that Sarawak would maintain 62% of its forests by operating 26 Forest Management Units (FMUs) covering 2.38 million hectares through sustainable certification, along with 7 forest management units spanning 97,966 hectares. However, only a month after this statement, Sarawak employed new tactics to justify logging in the UBFA protected forest area. According to Nick Kelesau on the RFS broadcast, only one family of Penan village head Ba Data Bila-Sedin Laeng agreed to the logging, yet the Sarawak government claimed unanimous community agreement.

Dennis Along, Resident of Long Terawan Baram/Social and Political Activist.
*Sarawak Constituency Demarcation Under Scrutiny: Calls for Fair Representation and Reduced Assembly Seats*
Dennis reported that the vice-chairman of BERSIH 2.0 Sarawak - Ann Teo held a Roadshow related to the re-delimitation of Dun and Parliamentary constituencies in Sarawak. Ann Teo was in Miri Sarawak on Saturday last week and her presence to give information on the re-delimitation of the electoral area received a very encouraging response among the people of Miri and its surroundings. After attending the clarification session, Dennis suggested that the unfair manipulation and demarcation be stopped and a new fair demarcation be implemented. Eight years ago the demarcation of the Sarawak state assembly constituency increased the number of Sarawak state assembly seats to 82 seats. But unfortunately the demarcation is very unfair. As a comparison, the Gedong area where the Premier of Sarawak is the representative of the people, the area only has more than 10 thousand voters while the Senadin area in Miri has a total of 70 thousand voters. This is an unfair situation. The value of 1 vote of a voter in Gedong is represented by 7 votes for the residents of Senadin. So are some other areas. We, the people of Sarawak, demand that the EC do a fair demarcation of electoral areas (the number of voters should be almost the same) and the number of dun and parliament seats be reduced. The logic is that the dun seat is reduced because the number of voters in Sarawak is not many and the Sarawak dun only meets twice a year and each time it meets for only 8 days. But the Sarawak assemblyman enjoys a decent salary and remuneration throughout the year. By reducing the number of Sarawak Dun seats to 41 (41), the amount of government expenditure will decrease and the distribution of the number of voters will be more or less equal. Thus no political party can easily manipulate the low number of voters and easily win the election. According to Dennis again. If you look at this moment, most of the state assembly seats won by GPS/PBB have small areas and not many voters. This is done in such a way that PBB/GPS can easily win the DUN area involved. We urge the EC to be fair and take suggestions from the people seriously and not just accept demarcation suggestions from GPS/Sarawak state government. The voice and suggestions of the people should be prioritized over the suggestions of political parties like GPS.

Nick Kelesau Naan, Spokesperson of the Penan Keruan Organization, Baram Sarawak
*Conflict Over Forest Conservation: Penan Communities Reject Logging Licenses*
Nick confirmed the news reported by BMF that logging by Borneoland Timber Resources Sdn. Bhd. started a few weeks ago. Before this, there were several meetings and negotiations between the logging companies and 18 Penan communities upstream of Baram. The majority of Penan communities did not agree to the logging in their forest area. Residents of Long Lamam, Long Ajeng, and Long Benaleh sent letters of objection to Borneoland Timber. However, only the family of Village Chief Ba Data Bila, specifically Village Chief Sedin Laeng, agreed to the logging for their own reasons, allowing Borneoland Timber to start the operation.
The Penan people in this area (Selaan) strongly object to the logging because they depend entirely on the forest for their livelihood. Additionally, this area is part of the UBFA development plan - Ulu Baram Forest Area - a forest conservation area developed through the ideas and wishes of the community. Therefore, Nick appealed to the state government to cancel the logging license in the UBFA area and respect the voice of the majority of the Penan people. He mentioned that they would give a little more time for the workers to resolve this logging issue before setting up a blockade.</itunes:summary>

【FORUM：COMMUNITY VOICE】
Harrison Ngau, Lawyer / Political activist since the 1970s.
*Reclaiming Our Rights: A Strategy for NCR Land*
Harrison Ngau believes that since BN/GPS administered Sarawak, the rights of the Dayak/Orang Asal to NCR land have been eroded and if GPS is left with the land policy they are currently practicing. Less than 20 years from now, the NCR land of the indigenous people will be wiped out. The erosion of the Dayak people's land rights is not only due to provisions in the Sarawak land code that are not in their favor but also contributed to by inconsistent court decisions. According to him, the court is also influenced by political power. Some shocking court decisions (the case of Nor anak Nyawai) are against the traditional/ custom/ historical practices and life practices of the Dayak community. Thousands of years before Brooke's arrival. The Dayak community lives without a constitution and they use customs and traditional practices as having legal authority. Brooke's arrival in 1841 to 1946- Brooke recognized Dayak land ownership with several orders/decrees and issued maps and title deeds. Even during the British administration in 1946, the British still recognized the ownership rights of the Dayaks over their NCR. It was only from 1948 that the British made it mandatory for each village to apply for a permit to cultivate land that is outside the ncr land. Therefore, because it is very strange when Sarawak is ruled by Sarawak's own people, the Dayak people's rights to the land are being eroded. The following steps need to be taken immediately to restore and maintain the Dayak's rights to their lands, rivers and forests. 
	1. Demand to revise the Sarawak Land Code and cancel the section that is not clear and that does not protect Dayak and Bumiputra rights. In particular, section 197 of the Sarawak Land Code. 
	2. Establish a royal inquiry committee to investigate, prosecute and return Dayak land rights that were unjustly confiscated.
	3. Cancellation and revocation of licences, permits and PLs that overlap or are in ncr land areas.
	4. Carry out land surveying for the Dayak people using the existing communal land boundary and issue land title deeds for villages and individuals. Instead of using sec 6 of the Sarawak Land Code.
	5. Abolish the land survey using sec 6 of the Sarawak land code and the awarding of NTDs to villages. Currently NTD is given to villages that apply for land for village use. Around 500 hectares are given to each village and can appeal to the state government to get a maximum of 1000 hectares for each village. But in Baram the average NCR land of villages in Baram is 12,000 hectares. Imagine how much land of the villagers was confiscated by GPS with the implementation of NTD.
	6. Return the Dayak lands that were seized through unfair trials and investigate the owners of PL, LICENSES and permits given by gps leaders to their cronies over the years.</itunes:summary>

Harrison Ngau, Lawyer / Political activist since the 1970s.
*Reclaiming Our Rights: A Strategy for NCR Land*
Harrison Ngau believes that since BN/GPS administered Sarawak, the rights of the Dayak/Orang Asal to NCR land have been eroded and if GPS is left with the land policy they are currently practicing. Less than 20 years from now, the NCR land of the indigenous people will be wiped out. The erosion of the Dayak people's land rights is not only due to provisions in the Sarawak land code that are not in their favor but also contributed to by inconsistent court decisions. According to him, the court is also influenced by political power. Some shocking court decisions (the case of Nor anak Nyawai) are against the traditional/ custom/ historical practices and life practices of the Dayak community. Thousands of years before Brooke's arrival. The Dayak community lives without a constitution and they use customs and traditional practices as having legal authority. Brooke's arrival in 1841 to 1946- Brooke recognized Dayak land ownership with several orders/decrees and issued maps and title deeds. Even during the British administration in 1946, the British still recognized the ownership rights of the Dayaks over their NCR. It was only from 1948 that the British made it mandatory for each village to apply for a permit to cultivate land that is outside the ncr land. Therefore, because it is very strange when Sarawak is ruled by Sarawak's own people, the Dayak people's rights to the land are being eroded.

Paul Raja, lawyer activist
*Demanding Better: Changing GPS for a Government That Serves the People*
Paul Raja compared the colonial administration with the current BN/GPS administration. During the colonial era, the DO (District Officer) and his entourage worked efficiently, focusing on providing services to the people. They moved from one longhouse to another, making entries in logbooks. They registered residents who did not yet have an identity card, birth certificate, or special document. They also recorded data on individual land ownership, village boundaries, income levels, number of children, and overall population. This allowed them to identify villagers who were skilled and had the potential to lead a village or community. The DO visited all the longhouses along the river, up the mountain to Bario, without exception. In simple terms, the colonial administration provided services to the people.
However, the BN/GPS administration only administers and does not take serious efforts to serve the people. DOs and government employees no longer provide services but only administer, waiting in the office and handling the affairs that are presented to them. The question is why the attitude of the government changed from providing services to merely administering. The answer is that absolute power corrupts absolutely. BN/GPS, which was given full power for decades, became arrogant and corrupt. People should not give excessive power to any political party, because excessive power makes the government unafraid of being rejected or replaced by other political parties. I think we have no choice but to change the GPS to get back a government that will earnestly serve the people.</itunes:summary>

【FORUM：COMMUNITY VOICE】
Roland Engan, President of PEWARIS Baram
*The Role of the Native Court: Seeking Justice for Improper Tribal Leader Appointments*
Roland describes Sarawak as heading towards an autocratic state administration. Not only is the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly (DUN) almost entirely controlled by GPS, but the procedures for appointing tribal and community leaders are fully controlled by the state government. For hundreds of years, the appointment of tribal leaders in Sarawak was done by consensus by the longhouse residents themselves. 
On August 2, 1980, the Sarawak government issued a circular outlining the procedure for appointing tribal leaders through negotiations between the penghulu and the district office. In 2004, the Ordinance of Tribal Leaders and Community Leaders was drafted but not enforced, and in 2021, the ordinance was withdrawn. However, since 2011, the Sarawak government circular stipulated that the appointment of tribal leaders must go through the Resident Office of the Division and must pass through the tribal leader appointment committee, whose permanent members include the local YB/ADUN. This has sparked excessive political interference in the appointment of tribal leaders in Sarawak. Moreover, once a village chief is appointed, he has the absolute power to appoint the list of JKKK (Village Development and Security Committee) members under his administration. This completely stifles the democratic process in villages and longhouses.
Roland Engan brought three cases of improper appointments of tribal leaders to court, and one of them was won. In the Long Bedian case, the High Court judge ruled that the procedure for appointing the tribal leader was incorrect. The other two cases/judicial reviews were not allowed, with the judge stating that government appointments could not be challenged in court as it was a government policy. However, Roland advises village communities to bring their cases back to the Native Court. Roland was particularly affected by the directive on the certificate of appointment for tribal leaders, which reads, "the duty of the tribal leader/community leader is to do what is directed by the government." This means that the tribal leader merely follows the GPS government's wishes, whether right or wrong.</itunes:summary>

Gabriel Atong, Resident of Punan Ba Longhouse, Belaga
*Electricity Woes in Punan Ba: Questioning Sarawak's Allocation*
Punan Ba Longhouse is located approximately 50 km from the Bakun Dam. Gabriel attended the Community Voice Forum organized by RFS on June 29 and 30, 2024, in Miri. During the forum, Gabriel mentioned that his village, Punan Ba, is only about 42 km from the Bakun Dam but is not connected to the national grid by the Sarawak government and SEB. Punan Ba relies on a solar hybrid system for electricity supply, but residents often experience power outages because the solar hybrid system frequently breaks down.
Two days later, on July 1, 2024, Deputy Prime Minister Zahid visited Punan Ba and announced a RM4.2 million allocation to replace the often problematic solar hybrid batteries in Punan Ba. According to media reports, solar hybrid batteries need to be replaced every seven years. Gabriel is puzzled as to why the Sarawak government has not connected Punan Ba and the longhouses downstream of Bakun to the national grid, so as not to waste public funds on the costly maintenance and replacement of solar hybrid batteries. Connecting us to the national grid would benefit not only Punan Ba but also all villages, including the health clinic and primary school along the Rajang River, said Gabriel.
Moreover, SEB is a wholly state-owned company, and the Sarawak government has announced reserves of up to RM40 billion. My question is why are we still relying on federal assistance. Gabriel believes that this decision is to secure contracts and projects for GPS cronies. And indeed, during Deputy Prime Minister Zahid Hamidi's visit, contractors hoping for contracts from GPS gathered in large numbers to welcome Zahid Hamidi.
During this visit, Zahid also approved an allocation of RM21 million for the construction of a water treatment plant in Belaga, the construction of a 20 km road connecting Punan Ba to Bintulu, the installation of street lights in Belaga, and the upgrading of KEMAS offices and preschools under the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW). All these allocations will be requested in the 2025 budget.
Punan Ba Longhouse is the longhouse of the wife of Hulu Rajang MP, Wilson Ugak Kumbong, who is currently the Deputy Minister of Digital Malaysia.</itunes:summary>

Gabriel Atong, Resident of Punan Ba Longhouse, Belaga
*Electricity Woes in Punan Ba: Questioning Sarawak's Allocation*
Punan Ba Longhouse is located approximately 50 km from the Bakun Dam. Gabriel attended the Community Voice Forum organized by RFS on June 29 and 30, 2024, in Miri. During the forum, Gabriel mentioned that his village, Punan Ba, is only about 42 km from the Bakun Dam but is not connected to the national grid by the Sarawak government and SEB. Punan Ba relies on a solar hybrid system for electricity supply, but residents often experience power outages because the solar hybrid system frequently breaks down.
Two days later, on July 1, 2024, Deputy Prime Minister Zahid visited Punan Ba and announced a RM4.2 million allocation to replace the often problematic solar hybrid batteries in Punan Ba. According to media reports, solar hybrid batteries need to be replaced every seven years. Gabriel is puzzled as to why the Sarawak government has not connected Punan Ba and the longhouses downstream of Bakun to the national grid, so as not to waste public funds on the costly maintenance and replacement of solar hybrid batteries. Connecting us to the national grid would benefit not only Punan Ba but also all villages, including the health clinic and primary school along the Rajang River, said Gabriel.
Moreover, SEB is a wholly state-owned company, and the Sarawak government has announced reserves of up to RM40 billion. My question is why are we still relying on federal assistance. Gabriel believes that this decision is to secure contracts and projects for GPS cronies. And indeed, during Deputy Prime Minister Zahid Hamidi's visit, contractors hoping for contracts from GPS gathered in large numbers to welcome Zahid Hamidi.
During this visit, Zahid also approved an allocation of RM21 million for the construction of a water treatment plant in Belaga, the construction of a 20 km road connecting Punan Ba to Bintulu, the installation of street lights in Belaga, and the upgrading of KEMAS offices and preschools under the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW). All these allocations will be requested in the 2025 budget.
Punan Ba Longhouse is the longhouse of the wife of Hulu Rajang MP, Wilson Ugak Kumbong, who is currently the Deputy Minister of Digital Malaysia.</description>

Ricklend, the spokesperson for PACOS (Partners of Community Organisations Sabah)
*Potential Scandal in Sabah's Carbon Trading: Indigenous Rights at Risk*
Ricklend raised concerns about the upcoming Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) bill that will be presented in parliament at the end of this year, stating that it will not apply to Sabah, according to Sabah Deputy Chief Minister Jeffery Kitingan. He emphasized that there is a clear separation in the constitution that places land and forests under the state's jurisdiction. Ricklend questioned how carbon trading agreements are signed, whether they involve government-to-government (G2G) transactions or if they are open to anyone. If it involves G2G trade, it is impossible for CCUS not to be referenced when Sabah enters into agreements with foreign countries or companies.
Ricklend also questioned the Sabah state government's actions of hiding carbon trading agreements that have been signed secretly without involving the state government of Sabah, with only representatives from the government present. He stated that this is a suspicious beginning for carbon trading. If our land and forests are to be used for carbon trading, we must be officially informed, and Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) must be implemented first. We also want to know the economic benefits for our community. So far, the Sabah government has talked about carbon trading, but the people in the villages know nothing about it. We want detailed information and explanations to be given to the people of Sabah. To implement carbon trading, permission must be obtained from the indigenous communities who own the land, and agreements must be signed with their consent.
The Sabah state government must resolve land ownership issues in Sabah, which have not been settled until now. If these issues are not resolved, it is highly likely that carbon trading will become a fraudulent scandal that will disadvantage the people of Sabah. Both the state and federal governments must respect the rights of the people and adhere to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).</itunes:summary>

Dr John Anthony Brian, Sarawak Political Analyst
*The Real Cost of Resource Extraction: A Call for Fair Revenue Sharing in Sarawak*
Sarawak Deputy Premier Awang Tengah Ali Hassan announced that the gold, rare earth, and bauxite reserves in Sarawak's underground are worth RM1.25 trillion. Therefore, mining expertise and technology from Canada are needed. 
Almost every month, the GPS government announces good news about the expected increase in revenue for Sarawak. However, before celebrating this news, John Brian raises some critical questions: How many trillion ringgits of revenue have been generated from oil, natural gas, timber, palm oil plantations, and hydro dams over the years? What percentage of this revenue has been returned to the indigenous people living in the areas where these resources are extracted?
The answer, according to John Brian, is that the indigenous people in these areas face negative impacts and are becoming poorer. He highlights the coal mines in Sri Aman, the hydro dams in Belaga, the oil and natural gas in Miri and Bintulu, and the aluminum smelting in Samalaju. The local residents in these areas are given low-wage labor jobs and suffer the adverse effects of pollution, landslides, and floods. The same applies to the news about gold mining, which is expected to generate trillions of ringgits in revenue for Sarawak. The ones who will become rich are the investors and capitalists, because the GPS government’s policies favor capitalists and wealthy tycoons. The rights of the indigenous people and the poor are not prioritized.
John Brian questions who will speak for the people if GPS only speaks for the wealthy capitalists. He urges the people of Sarawak to be wise. Giving almost all the votes to GPS is not the right way to practice democracy. If the ruling government is doing something wrong, then the opposition is needed to speak for the people. He points out that the current seat distribution in the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly, with 80 GPS seats and only 2 DAP seats, is very disadvantageous for the people. The people need policies that favor them.
John Brian believes it is fair for local residents who own land for any industry generating billions of ringgits to share the revenue directly with the landowners in the area. He suggests that at least 30 percent of the shares should be given to the indigenous people, and they should be given job opportunities, contracts, and direct involvement in the mining projects. In simple terms, a JV (Joint Venture) sharing the revenue. Now is the time for the people to replace GPS representatives who favor the capitalists and to elect representatives who create policies that benefit them in the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly.</itunes:summary>

Nicholas Mujah, Secretary General of SADIA
*Sarawak's Resource Riches: The Disconnect Between Government Promises and Reality*
Sarawak plans to bring in the latest mining technology from Canada to extract valuable metal resources from beneath Sarawak’s earth. This was stated by the Deputy Premier of Sarawak, Awang Tengah Ali Hasan. According to Awang Tengah, studies by the Sarawak Geological Department show that there are deposits of gold, mineral ores, bauxite, and rare earths worth RM1.25 trillion. Awang Tengah made this statement to the media after returning from a visit to the Micassa Gold Mine located in Kirkland, Toronto, Canada.
Nicholas Mujah believes this is good news for the people of Sarawak, similar to the positive news when natural gas and oil were discovered in Miri and Bintulu some time ago. He hopes that such visits by Sarawak leaders to foreign countries become more frequent. They should not only imitate the sustainable and advanced mining technology and methods but also adopt transparent and fair governance practices.
He emphasizes that the Sarawak government should also emulate how developed countries distribute wealth so that it can be enjoyed by all groups and ensure infrastructure facilities reach even the interior areas. Nicholas, hailing from Sri Aman, observes that there are indeed many natural resources in his hometown. However, because the people are less politically aware and choose irresponsible representatives from GPS who do not strive to develop the Sri Aman area, it remains backward.
Nicholas asserts that even though Sarawak's resources will increase in the future, if the representatives in an area do not strive to help the poor, the people will remain poor and left behind. He insists that Sarawak leaders must also adopt the right way of returning mining revenues to the local population, similar to how Canada collaborates with the indigenous Red Indian communities.</itunes:summary>

Dominic Langat, Penan from Long Tungan, Baram
*Penan Community Faces Isolation Due to Collapsed Logging Roads in Baram*
An NGO named the National Dayak Congress is working to help the interior residents of Baram repair the collapsed logging road in the Long Lelang and Long Nen settlements in Baram. Following the incident, residents in the affected areas have been cut off from the outside world and are unable to go to town to buy food or visit the Long Lama clinic. The residents have sought emergency assistance from the state government. However, their appeals for help have gone unanswered. Dominic confirmed that a landslide indeed occurred in the area, which is located deep in the interior of Baram. According to Dominic, road collapses and impassable conditions have become commonplace in Baram. However, today, the media reported a statement by Sarawak's Deputy Premier and Minister of Infrastructure Development and Ports, Douglas Unggah, stating that Sarawak will repair 14 logging roads throughout the state at a cost of RM543 million. Of these 14 roads, four are currently being repaired and 10 are still in the pre-contract stage. Unggah also announced that 16 Jiwa Murni roads, costing RM928 million, have been completed, covering a distance of 461 km and including 82 bridges.
Dominic criticized Unggah's statement as being too general. He asked for specifics about which logging roads are being repaired and which have been completed. As a transport operator in Baram, Dominic stated that he has not seen any logging road repair projects in progress. In fact, just a week ago, a logging road in his village collapsed, and they sought assistance. A Tan Sri who was previously involved in road repair work has not received payment from the state government for a long time. The Sarawak state government easily mentions hundreds of millions of ringgit for road repair projects, but in reality, none of the mentioned projects have been executed. We, the residents of Baram, request that instead of repairing logging roads and building Jiwa Murni roads—which are all lies and a waste of resources—quality roads be constructed for us, even if they take longer to complete, so long as they can be used safely.

*The Cost of Development: Logging and Hydro Dams in Sarawak Under Fire*
Premier Sarawak Johari Openg, last Wednesday, during his speech at the inauguration of the United States-Malaysia Clean Energy Forum 2024 at BCCK Kuching, said that the Sarawak government will use excess hydroelectric production to ensure food security in Sarawak. Sarawak has many rivers that serve as water sources for generating hydroelectric power, which also produces a large surplus of water. This surplus water will be used for the irrigation of paddy fields in Sarawak. This means Sarawak can solve two problems with one action.
The arguments presented by the Sarawak Premier aim to justify the construction of hydro dams. Before the Premier promises food security for the people of Sarawak, what is the guarantee of electricity supply to the residents of Bakun and Murum who have sacrificed their land, forests, and rivers for electricity generation? Why are there still many longhouses in Bakun and Murum that have not been supplied with electricity? Why is the excess electricity from Bakun and Murum not given to them for free?
Surplus water for the irrigation of paddy fields in Sarawak? Can the Sarawak Premier show where the commercial paddy fields in Sarawak are? What is commonly known is that there are no commercial paddy fields in Sarawak, and even if there were, there is no need to build hydro dams for their irrigation.
Concerning the Premier's argument that Sarawak is trying to solve the climate change problem by planting 35 million trees by 2025. This objective was achieved four days ago, and Sarawak achieved it a year earlier. The Premier must realize that it is indeed the government's duty to care for and protect the environment.
But does the Sarawak Premier realize that BN/GPS has been the biggest destroyer of the environment in Sarawak? The Sarawak government has consistently granted logging licenses to hundreds of logging companies for the past 50 years, and logging activities in Sarawak are still aggressive. To protect the environment, GPS should launch a zero logging campaign as suggested by PKR Baram a few years ago. By stopping logging and combined with tree-planting efforts, that is the correct way to protect the environment.
The trees planted by the Sarawak Premier will be cut down when they are mature enough to be sold. What we mean is that trees should be planted and cared for over hundreds of years for future generations - says Dennis Along.

Nicholas Mujah-Secretary General of the Sarawak Dayak Iban Organization (SADIA).
*Politicians got rich 24 hours after selling PL*
Since its establishment 50 years ago, SADIA has played a role in safeguarding the rights of the Dayak Iban people in Sarawak. According to Nicholas Mujah. Cases of land encroachment, environmental crimes and human rights reported to SADIA are increasing every year. Of course this is due to the ruling government's policy not being in line with the wishes and rights of the indigenous people. Lately - the cases reported to SADIA are more and more diverse - the effects of laws that are not in favor of indigenous people passed in the Sarawak State Assembly. Today SADIA received a case of land encroachment by Melor Gemilang Plantation Sdn.Bhd against the land of the Iban community in Kampung Merakai-SERIAN. Merakai villagers have been prevented by the Melor Gemilang company from entering their garden land for the past 3 months. It is said that the land has been given PL by the Sarawak government to Melor Gemilang for commercial oil palm cultivation. The total land area is 2000 acres - involving 96 Merakai house doors. SADIA has two options to help. First take the case to court and second by way of certification. The option of taking a case to court takes a lot of time, energy and money. Then the second option will be preferred. Based on the Sarawak constitution. Written law cannot abolish customary law. Therefore, if the Melor Gemilang company obtains their PL through the Sarawak land code. It does not mean that they can remove the rights of the people to their land that has been inherited by custom. If followed by certification. Any oil palm plantation company cannot encroach or seize the land of the villagers. If not follow the certification. Then the palm oil products will not be able to be sold. Merakai villagers must prepare complete reports and documents. When asked if this case involved politicians. Mujah Binkkas replied that the PL was given by politicians. Rich politicians within 24 hours of selling the PL given to them to rich taukeh. This is a bad practice and needs to be stopped - Mujah said.

*Thomas Raises Alarm on Poverty and Health in Malaysia's SDG Agenda*
Thomas represented SAVE Rivers at the SDG-Sustainable Developmet Goal Forum at Hotel Raia Kuching on 8-9 June 2024. It was attended by almost all NGOs in Sarawak. The SDGs are efforts and initiatives at the international level to achieve sustainable development for each country.  The development of each country will be measured through different areas such as health, education, environment, human rights, indigenous people's rights, poverty, basic facilities, land, food and so on. As a result of the data collected and analyzed, from some aspects Malaysia is still far behind and there are some aspects that are quite good and moderate. However, the Malaysian government's target to achieve the SDGs is 2030, which is less than 6 years from now. Hence the efforts of the government, NGOs and all parties to develop good policies and laws to ensure that the SDG goals for Malaysia are achieved by 2030. Thomas stressed that Malaysia is still far behind in terms of eradicating poverty and health facilities.</itunes:summary>

Garak Jalong, the Village Chief of Long Lawen Village, Murum
*Two Dams, Two Decades of Struggle: The Story of Long Lawen*
When the residents of Long Gang moved to the new Sungai Asap settlement in 1998 to make way for the construction of the Bakun Dam, some Long Gang residents refused to move and decided to stay in a higher plateau called Long Lawen. He explained that when the Murum Dam was built in 2013, the Penan residents of Murum (seven longhouses) were relocated within the NCR land of Long Lawen. Thus, they faced dam-related problems twice. This is how difficult their lives have been due to the state government's decision to build two mega dams near their village.
Even after more than 26 years, the residents of Long Lawen still use logging roads to get to Bintulu, with a one-way trip costing RM800 and a round trip costing RM1600. They have pleaded, but the government's promise to pave the 17 km road from their home to the SK Tegulang junction has not yet been fulfilled. Long Lawen Longhouse, with 75 doors, was connected to electricity by SEB in 2023. But to this day, they haven't paid the electricity bill. The reason, he said, is that SEB still owes them. The land involved in building the Tegulang resettlement area has not been compensated by SEB and the Sarawak government. SEB must pay their debt to them first, only then will they pay the electricity bill.
Although the government says that building more dams will generate more money for the country, the social and environmental impacts make Garak Jalong disagree with building more dams in Sarawak. They refused to move when the Bakun Dam was built. But when the Murum Dam was built, the Penan Murum residents came/relocated to their place, which felt like an invasion of their forest and land. This, he noted, caused conflicts within the community.</itunes:summary>

Chang Lih Kang, Minister of Science, Technology, and Innovation Malaysia
*Green Hydrogen Development in Sarawak: Environmental Considerations*
YB Chang is in Sarawak for two days on an official working visit. Yesterday, YB Chang attended the Asia-Pacific Green Technology Conference and Exhibition in Kuching. Current general observations indicate that Sarawak is a leading state in the field of green hydrogen, even ahead among ASEAN countries.
Producing green hydrogen requires a lot of electricity. In this context, Sarawak needs electricity from solar or hydro dams. Could this potentially trigger conflicts over land acquisition, human rights, or environmental pollution? Chang emphasized that an international standard has been developed for producing green hydrogen and must be adhered to. Any party that violates this standard will not have their hydrogen energy considered sustainable. 
This means that building more dams that could harm the environment and involve land acquisition processes that violate human rights will also determine whether the produced hydrogen can be marketed. Green hydrogen is not only a renewable clean energy source but also contributes to Malaysia's goal of achieving zero carbon emissions by 2050. If the aim is to save the environment, then there should be no projects that pollute the environment in the process of producing green hydrogen, said Chang Lih Kang.
The Sarawak government must act carefully and balance their actions. Sarawak is expected to export 249,000 tons of hydrogen to Japan and Korea by 2028, with 9,000 tons for local use. Since green hydrogen technology is still new, the government will implement several initiatives to encourage its use.

Panting Anak Baling, Residents of Sungai Batin Batu Village 11 Bintulu
*Eviction Notice Sparks Outcry Among Bintulu's Farming Community*
The residents of the Batin river village are people from the countryside who migrated to the city of Bintulu to find work. Because they could not afford to rent a house in the city center, they built a house at Batu 11 Jalan Bintulu Coastal Coast. Not so far from Similajau National Park. This village is categorized as an urban slum.  
During the administration of Chief Minister Adenan, he helped the people in this village by giving them garden land and agricultural seeds such as oil palm and coffee seeds to be cultivated (just given a title deed). Currently, the plantations of 420 families in this village have been successful. But what surprised them recently, the Sarawak state government through the SFC issued a notice to evict them from the village and fenced off the plantation area and did not allow anyone to enter the area on the grounds that the area had been gazetted as an additional Similajau National Park Forest area. 
According to Panting, all this time we were given encouragement, we were promised to be given land deeds and during the administration of adenan satem we were given help with tools and agricultural seeds. But now during the administration of Prime Minister Abang Johari we were kicked out. We are poor people who migrated to the city in search of economic opportunities and to educate our children. We hope that the Sarawak government and SCF will remove our garden area from being included in the addition of the Similajau National Park area. If the government can give thousands of hectares to palm oil plantation companies, why can't the land that we have worked on and succeeded in be given to us. This is our appeal to the premier of Sarawak. Panting said. Panting and 66 others came to the SADIA office in Kuching to get advice from SADIA secretary general Nicholas Mujah.

*Cascading Concerns: The Impact of Dam Projects on Rural Communities*
The rural/remote area electricity supply project using hydrogen power is another extraordinary imagination of Premier Sarawak Johari Openg, said political and environmental activist Dennis Along. Premier Sarawak Johari Openg mentioned that Sarawak wants to explore mobile hydrogen as a replacement for diesel for electricity supply in remote areas. He said this while inaugurating the Sarawak Electrolyser Assembly and Distribution Facility (SEA-DF) in Demak Laut. SEA-DF is the first equipment of its kind in ASEAN capable of converting water molecules into hydrogen. It is the result of a collaboration between SEDC Energy and PETRONAS subsidiary Lestari H2Gaas.
According to Dennis, "Currently, my village, Long Terawan, and other rural villages in Sarawak use the Sarawak Rural Electrification Scheme (SARES). It supplies 3000 watts of electricity per day per family, which is only enough to light three bulbs. Other electrical appliances cannot be used. I wonder why the excess energy from Bakun is not sent to us in rural areas. Also, how much will the electrolyser cost? We, the poor rural residents, cannot afford it if it is expensive. Abang Johari seems to be talking without thinking."
The campaign to build a cascading dam in Baram continues, said Dennis. This time, GPS is using community and village leaders to persuade the villagers. The idea of a cascading dam was opposed by 12 associations on May 23, 2024. For us in Long Terawan, we will be greatly affected because our village is downstream of the Tutoh River. We will be at risk and face polluted river water.

*Failures in Rural Infrastructure Blamed on GPS*
During the Gawai celebration at the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) hosted by Sarawak Deputy Premier Douglas Uggah Embas, Uggah urged the Dayak community to continue cooperating and supporting GPS in advancing the Dayak community in Sarawak. According to Uggah, the Sarawak government has established nine regional agencies to help develop the Dayak community in rural areas. These nine development agencies are the Highland Development Agency (HDA), Upper Rajang Development Agency (URDA), Northern Region Development Agency (NRDA), and Integrated Regional Samarahan Development Agency (IRSDA). Additionally, there are the Sri Aman Development Agency (SADA), Betong Division Development Agency (BDDA), Rejang Delta Development Agency (RADDA), Rajang Area Security Command Development Agency (RADA), and Greater Kuching Coordinated Development Agency (GKCDA). 
According to Robert, the Dayak community has always supported GPS, as evidenced by the coalition winning 80 out of 82 seats in the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly. Despite the establishment of many development agencies supposedly to advance rural areas, the projects implemented by these agencies are mostly abandoned, and the quality of the projects is very poor. "From what is mentioned, it sounds like a lot, but the results are very little," said Robert Muyang. 
"We also recently learned about the existence of RADA - the Rajang Area Security Command Development Agency. However, a few days ago, TR Siling anak Rabing reported to RFS that residents of 21 longhouses in the RESCOM area still use logging roads to return to their villages during the recent Gawai celebration. The Premier of Sarawak likes to boast that Sarawak has a lot of money, but rural infrastructure facilities are still far behind."
Robert also disagrees with the interference of politicians or elected representatives (YB) in the appointment of village chiefs and believes that elected representatives should not be involved in the handing over of appointment letters to village chiefs, as it seems like the YBs are the ones appointing the village chiefs. Robert advised longhouse residents not to be afraid of threats from their local YBs, as they can remove those YBs through the power of voting.

Gabriel Atong, Resident of Punan Ba, Belaga
*Grassroots Struggles: Abuse of Power in Village Leadership Appointments*
The Borneo Post today reported the Minister of Tourism, Arts, and Culture Tiong King Sing, who is also the president of the PDP Party (GPS), warned that there should be no political interference in the appointment of village leaders and community leaders, or they will face a MACC investigation. Tiong said that he received many complaints that certain individuals interfered in the appointment of village heads. There are certain triggers that veto the decisions of longhouse residents.
Tiong also informed that he had discussed the issue with the deputy premier of Sarawak, and they agreed that no political party should interfere in the appointment of village heads or tribal heads. Due to the interference of certain people, 83 letters appointing village heads in Sibu have not yet been handed over. If this situation continues, the people below will suffer because of the struggle for political power. According to Tiong, anyone who has the ability, is trusted, and has the support of the people can be appointed as village head.
Gabriel very much agrees with Tiong's suggestion, even though he is from GPS. But Gabriel pointed out that a member of the Tiong party, Marudi Peguang Manggil assemblyman, some time ago, in a video clip that went viral, threatened not to re-appoint the village chief who fought or did not vote for him in the election.
"I don't just agree with the SPRM investigation because of political interference and abuse of power. In fact, I want any village head who breaks trust and misuses village money to be investigated by MACC. We at the grassroots have been satisfied with reporting cases of abuse of power and misappropriation of village money. But because the heads of these villages are supported by YB/GPS assemblymen, they are immune from investigation and action by the police."
Meanwhile, Sarawak Justice Chairman Roland Engan gave a brief response to Tiong's statement by suggesting three things:
1. The process of appointing village heads and community heads should be returned to the villagers or longhouses themselves.
2. The panel appointing village heads and community leaders should not have politicians (YB area) as it is now.
3. The 2004 Clan Head and Community Leader Ordinance should be repealed immediately.
Rumah Panjang Punan Ba was split in two because one side did not agree with their village chief, who cooperated and handed over the Punan Ba NCR land to Samling for logging and oil palm plantation. They are led by Gabriel Atong, who is trying to build his own longhouse, but there is still no letter of appointment of the village head from the District Office.</itunes:summary>

Desmond Laing, Resident of Tukau Jaya Traditional Village
*Tukau Jaya's Struggle: 10 Villagers Seek Fair Compensation from Syarikat Parabena*
Desmond Laing gave the latest update regarding the traditional village of Tukau Jaya which was ordered to be relocated by Syarikat Parabena. Parabena won the land dispute case in Kampung Tukau Jaya and all residents were ordered to demolish their houses and receive the SPS- Resettlement Scheme. Before the houses in SPS are ready to be built, residents are instructed to rent elsewhere first. The majority of the population had to agree to the SPS Scheme offered because they were powerless to fight in Court. Residents who accept to move to SPS cannot make any claims for compensation. 
But Desmond Laing and 9 others took their case to court. Because they do not agree with the way Parabena does not want to pay the price of their garden, house and land. 
We have instructed a lawyer to act on our behalf and so far Parabena has not demolished our house until our case is settled. Surrendering to the SPs scheme means we lose everything. But by filing our case in court we still have hope to get payment from the price of our house, land and garden. I will give further updates when the date of the trial in court - Desmond Laing said - the villagers of Tukau Jaya. Parabena is linked to the younger brother of Taib Mahmud. Former TYT Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

I will give further updates when the date of the trial in court - Desmond Laing said - the villagers of Tukau Jaya. Parabena is linked to the younger brother of Taib Mahmud.

Siling ak Rabing, Head of the Village Settlement Center (RESCOM) Nanga Jagau, Kanowit.
*Longhouse Joys and Logging Road Woes: A Gawai Festival Reality Check*
Siling informed RFS that the Gawai festival was celebrated joyfully in all 21 longhouses in the RESCOM settlement established in 1973. These 21 Iban longhouses were centralized to combat the communist threat at that time. However, what saddens the residents here is that they still rely on logging roads to reach their longhouses. We have water and electricity but no road connecting our settlement to the outside world. This makes it difficult for our children and in-laws to return home during the Gawai festival. Due to the lack of roads, the prices of daily necessities are very high. Although the journey to the Kanowit market is only 1 hour and 30 minutes, we appeal to the Minister of Public Works (JKR) and the Prime Minister to expedite the construction of a safe road to our longhouses. We have been using logging roads for a long time, and this situation always threatens our lives, especially during rainy and slippery weather. We hope that by the Gawai festival in 2025, our children will be able to return to the village with the convenience of paved roads - TR. Siing anak Rabing.</itunes:summary>

*Community Outcry Against Cascading Tutoh Dam*
Yesterday, May 23, 2024, at Imperial Hotel Miri - a briefing was organized by SEB in collaboration with the Ministry of Utilities and Telecommunications regarding the proposed construction of the Cascading Tutoh Dam. Twelve associations based in Miri were invited. 
During the three-hour briefing and Q&amp;A session, it can be said that 99% of the associations did not agree with the construction of the Cascading Tutoh Dam because they had seen the failures and negative impacts of dams on the communities in Bakun and Murum. The associations also questioned why the idea of building a dam in Tutoh was still being discussed when the residents of Tutoh had already sent an official protest letter containing over 600 signatures of residents opposing the dam. YB Dennis Ngau responded that this was the beginning of a dialogue to allow SEB to conduct further studies. Participants countered by asking why a study should be conducted when the majority of residents did not want the dam. 
Dennis explained that the residents wanted infrastructure amenities such as roads, bridges, clean water supply, schools, clinics, and so on. Infrastructure amenities were mentioned by the GPS government in their election manifesto, not dam construction projects - questioned Dennis Along. I ended my speech by quoting the late Taib Mahmud when persuading the Belaga residents to agree to the construction of the Bakun Dam in the past. Taib said - "With the construction of the Bakun Dam, at least 100 millionaires will be born in Belaga." Now… how many millionaires have resulted from the construction of Bakun? - questioned Dennis Along.</itunes:summary>

Dominic Langat, Resident of Long Tungan Baram.
*Sarawak's Carbon Trading Plan Criticized for Potential Land Ownership Issues*
Today, the Deputy Minister of Environmental Sustainability Sarawak, Dr. Hazland Abang Hipni, announced that applications for carbon trading licenses will be open to the people of Sarawak starting in December 2024. All Sarawakians are encouraged to participate, provided they own at least 100 hectares of titled individual land or surveyed and titled NCR land. For owners of smaller plots, land can be consolidated to reach the minimum size of 100 hectares. Hazland Abang Hipni made this statement while officiating the Sarawak Sustainable Seminar at the state auditorium in Kuching. 
The invitation and promotion of carbon trading, as stated by the Deputy Minister, seem "too good to be true." I question how many ordinary Sarawakians own 100 hectares of titled individual land, except for YBs (elected representatives) or wealthy conglomerates. Our NCR land has yet to be surveyed by the GPS Sarawak government. Or maybe GPS is setting a trap? We are encouraged to survey our NCR land under Section 6 (to participate in carbon trading), which may ultimately lead to our land being converted to state or communal land ownership. All these possibilities could happen.
Before promoting carbon trading, the Sarawak government should first resolve the issue of NCR land ownership throughout Sarawak. Once all land has owners and titles, it is up to individuals to join carbon trading if it proves profitable. For us villagers, we are tired of being deceived. Previously, the government promoted grouped oil palm planting through the LCDA (Land Custody and Development Authority) with a shared approach (merging small land lots). But what we know today is that the LCDA oil palm plantations make millions in profits, yet there are no returns for the participants. Participants in LCDA-managed oil palm cultivation remain poor to this day. Will this carbon trading also end the same way? Even if there is a binding agreement, there is still a likelihood that we will be deceived. - Dominic Langat.

Meenakshi Raman, President of Sahabat Alam Malaysia (SAM)
*Environmental Autonomy for Sarawak: A Step Backwards, Says SAM President*
According to Meenakshi Raman, the idea of granting full autonomy to Sarawak concerning environmental matters is a regressive idea. She argues that, when compared to the states in Peninsular Malaysia, Sarawak often fails to comply with legal environmental requirements. For instance, in Peninsular Malaysia, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report is mandatory for any major project. However, in Sarawak, it is left to the discretion of the project developers. This means that the people and the environment in Peninsular Malaysia are better protected than in Sarawak.
Meenakshi questions whether this is what the Sarawak Government desires. She points out that people's rights are not respected, the environment is not fully protected, and consultations with the people are not conducted transparently (FPIC). She believes the government should not allow Sarawak to adopt weak environmental laws and regulations. If Sarawak's motive for seeking full autonomy is to avoid interference from environmental agencies or the Department of Environment in their mega projects, it is very disappointing.
However, she acknowledges that if Sarawak wants to advance and lead in the projects they implement, they must not only comply with federal environmental laws but also adhere to international laws, regulations, and standards. According to Meenakshi, the duty of any government is to protect its people and the environment. She states that Sarawak's environmental record at the international level is unsatisfactory, and human rights violations in Sarawak are also frequent. Many customary land rights disputes have been taken to the federal court.
Therefore, Meenakshi advises the people of Sarawak to continue speaking out so that their rights are not violated and laws that diminish people's rights and pollute the environment should be challenged in court. She notes that SAM has observed since the 1980s that there have been many violations of people's rights in Sarawak and many industries developed by large companies in Sarawak do not comply with local and international standards.
For example, the aluminium smelting industry in Samalaju, logging, plantation, and hydro dam construction. Meenakshi warns that if Sarawak continues such actions, not only will Sarawak face international pressure and actions, but Malaysia as a whole and its entire population will also feel the negative impacts. She emphasizes that now is not like the 1980s. With the help of technology, environmental crimes can be reported from anywhere in the world.</itunes:summary>

Nicholas Mujah, Environmental Activist and Secretary General of SADIA
*Sarawak’s Environmental Autonomy Must Meet Global Standards*
The return of full autonomous power regarding the environment to Sarawak is welcomed. This means Sarawak has full authority to carry out any activities related to the environment without needing approval from federal agencies. Starting this August, 160 staff from the Federal Department of Environment (DOE) in Sarawak will be absorbed and transferred to NREB. Full power regarding the environment does not mean that Sarawak can act as it pleases. Instead, all forestry and environmental activities in Sarawak must comply with international standards. Only by adhering to these internationally set standards will it ensure that Malaysian and Sarawakian trade commodities will be well received and not face sales restrictions, said Nicholas Mujah. The return of full autonomous power over the environment is a very heavy responsibility, given that all export commodities currently have standards set by global organizations at the international level. Therefore, Sarawak must strive diligently to meet these established international standards.

Starting this August, 160 staff from the Federal Department of Environment (DOE) in Sarawak will be absorbed and transferred to NREB. Full power regarding the environment does not mean that Sarawak can act as it pleases. Instead, all forestry and environmental activities in Sarawak must comply with international standards. Only by adhering to these internationally set standards will it ensure that Malaysian and Sarawakian trade commodities will be well received and not face sales restrictions, said Nicholas Mujah. The return of full autonomous power over the environment is a very heavy responsibility, given that all export commodities currently have standards set by global organizations at the international level. Therefore, Sarawak must strive diligently to meet these established international standards.

Baru Bian, the ADUN of Ba’kelalan
*The Uncertain Future of Carbon Trading: Concerns of Sarawak's Indigenous People*
Recently, Baru Bian, the ADUN of Ba’kelalan representing the PDP party, officiated at the Asia Carbon Conference on March 15, 2023. During the event, the Premier of Sarawak projected that carbon credits could generate an annual income of RM315 million to RM1.039 billion for Sarawak. The state has the potential to create carbon sinks, promote carbon sequestration, and implement tree-planting schemes for carbon credits. However, the current question is whether the acquisition of indigenous lands or forests will trigger more conflicts and disputes, or whether the indigenous people will be compensated or given a share in carbon trading.
Acknowledging carbon trading as a new and increasingly important issue in Sarawak, Baru Bian has taken steps to seek further clarification from several NGOs, including a briefing from Professor Pauline Bala. According to the information he obtained, the concerns of the indigenous people are whether they will be involved, what percentage of returns they will receive, and how carbon trading will be conducted.
According to the Sarawak Forest Ordinance (Forest Carbon Activities) 2022, the Sarawak government will impose a 5% tax on carbon trading, with the remaining 95% of carbon trading revenue determined by binding agreements between the companies conducting carbon trading and the owners of the forests and lands where the carbon is sourced. Baru Bian noted that the potential of an area varies according to the quality of the forest in that area, meaning the returns to the forest owners depend on the terms agreed upon in the contract between both parties.
Baru Bian added that a week ago, a company approached him and informed him that the upcoming agreement could potentially split the carbon trading revenue 50/50 between the company and the forest owners. What is good about carbon trading, according to Baru Bian, is that no more logging licenses or LPF (License for Planted Forests) will be issued in the carbon trading areas, and the forests will be 100% protected.
Regarding the prohibition of any activities in forests gazetted for carbon trading, this depends on the negotiations finalized in the agreement. He pointed out that the carbon trading agreements in Sabah had many weaknesses, which should not be repeated in Sarawak. Furthermore, carbon trading will also provide compensation to the forest owners for refraining from activities in the carbon forests and for the local community’s efforts in forest conservation. 
For now, Baru Bian is positive that carbon trading will benefit the local people, companies, and the Sarawak government.

Ong Kian Ming, Former Member of Parliament for Bangi &amp; Former Deputy Minister of MITI
*Parliamentary Committee Urged for Election Commission Appointments*
The term of the Chairman of the Election Commission ended on May 9, 2024, and the vacancy must be filled immediately. According to Ong Kian Ming, the most appropriate way to appoint a Chairman or member of the Election Commission is through the Parliamentary Select Committee on Human Rights, Elections, and Institutional Reforms. Currently, the Prime Minister has the power to propose a name to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong under Article 114 of the Federal Constitution. However, as often advocated by PH (Pakatan Harapan), they aim to carry out institutional reforms. Now is the right time to appoint the Chairman and members of the Election Commission through the parliamentary select committee, as this committee represents all major political parties in Malaysia. Thus, the committee's decision will reflect the views of each party, as opposed to being proposed by the Prime Minister alone.
Ong Kian Ming suggested several names he considers suitable for the position, including an academic from Sarawak, Dr. Mohd Faisal Hazis (a current member of the Election Commission). He believes that the re-delineation of electoral boundaries, especially in Sarawak, will try to address the disparity in the number of urban and rural voters. The role of the Chairman of the Election Commission is certainly very important. Ong hopes that PH will issue a media statement as soon as possible to express their stance.

John Bara, Resident of Uma Akeh, Hulu Baram
*Communities Condemns ADUN Allowance Increase as Disproportionate*
John Bara, a resident of Uma Akeh, Hulu Baram, expressed his shock and disapproval over the daily allowance increase for ADUN as announced by the Premier of Sarawak, Abang Johari Openg. He finds it particularly unfair to the poor. The Premier has announced a 900% increase in the daily allowance for ADUN attending the State Assembly sitting. According to Johari Openg, the projected revenue for 2024 is substantial, around RM13.3 billion. 
John Bara argues that even though the Sarawak government's revenue has increased, welfare aid for the poor should be prioritized. Currently, the Department of Social Welfare provides some assistance to the poor in Sarawak, but many applications are still being rejected. Those who do receive assistance find the amounts to be very small. Moreover, some individuals are waiting up to three months for the aid to be credited to their accounts.
Upon checking the Sarawak Department of Social Welfare website, John Bara found that the general state aid ranges from RM200 to 300 per month, aid for the elderly is RM500 per month, allowance for disabled workers is RM450 per month, care aid for bedridden disabled individuals is RM500 per month, and aid for underprivileged children or parents who are disabled, elderly, and unable to work ranges from RM150 to 1000 per month. John Bara believes that aid for the poor should be increased as they are the ones who need it the most, not the already wealthy ADUN.
He pointed out that the salary of the Premier of Sarawak is RM39K per month, the Deputy Premier RM35K, Senior Minister RM30K, Minister RM27K, Junior Minister RM21K, ADUN RM15K, and Political Secretary RM9K per month. These figures do not include other monthly allowances. In contrast, the allowance for civil servants in Malaysia is only RM25 per day compared to RM450 per day for ADUN Sarawak. John Bara concludes that this discrepancy is very unfair.</itunes:summary>

Gereng Jadum, Penan from the resettlement area of Metalun/Murum
*The Struggles of Penan Communities in Metalun: Nine Years of Neglect*
In the current session of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly, the Sarawak State Assemblyman for the Murum area, Kennedy Chukpai Ugon, proposed to the Sarawak government to establish a special task force to address the issues faced by residents in the resettlement areas of Bakun and Murum. According to Chukpai, the problems faced by the resettled residents due to the construction of the dams need to be resolved immediately. Gereng Jadum, who lives in the Metalun-Murum resettlement area, welcomed this proposal and hopes their issues will be addressed promptly. He has frequently spoken on Radio Free Sarawak (RFS) to highlight the problems they are facing, including employment issues, road problems, clean water supply, and the fact that they were not given land for agriculture.
Gereng Jadum reported that the Penan children in Metalun had not attended school for two weeks. For the past nine years, SK Metalun has been operating in temporary buildings left behind by Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB), and the teaching and learning process has not been proceeding as hoped. The children are not being taught as they should be; instead, every day in the classroom, cartoons are shown for their entertainment. The 12 teachers do not enter the classroom and do not teach the children. Therefore, the community protested and refused to send their children to school. 
Children who stay in the hostel—only students from grades 4 to 6 are given food, while grades 1 to 3 are not given food, with the excuse of insufficient funds. The community had been paid a car rental allowance to send their children to school, but now the allowance is delayed by 2 to 3 months. These are the problems they are facing. The new SK Metalun school under construction is only 70% complete. In their opinion, this school should have been built simultaneously with their relocation nine years ago. They have lodged complaints and met with the District Education Officer, who promised to resolve their issues. They are waiting for the resolution. Children who have continued their education in secondary school almost all fail to master their studies because they lack a strong foundation in primary school.

----------------------

Heng Kiah Chun, Regional Campaign Strategist, Greenpeace Southeast Asia.
*Zero Deforestation is a Better Policy*
Last Wednesday, Malaysia's Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities, Johari Abdul Ghani, stated that Malaysia intends to introduce Orangutan Diplomacy (DOU), especially to major importing countries of Malaysian palm oil such as the European Union (EU), China, and India. Malaysia plans to gift a pair of adult orangutans to prove to the world that Malaysia is not a country that threatens the orangutan habitat and to highlight Malaysia's commitment at the international level to biodiversity restoration. 
Heng believes this is not the right way to convince the global community to accept Malaysian palm oil or to prove Malaysia's commitment to biodiversity conservation. Instead, a zero deforestation and zero forest exploitation policy would be more effective in convincing palm oil buyers and better preserving the survival of orangutans in Malaysia.
According to Heng, a community palm oil plantation project in Sumatra and another palm oil plantation project by the Indonesian Palm Oil Farmers Union in West Kalimantan have successfully demonstrated that palm oil cultivation can thrive without deforestation by practicing good agricultural practices using organic fertilizers. Additionally, the commitment of major companies that buy palm oil, not only palm oil but also soy and other vegetable oils, to purchase only zero-deforestation or non-forest-exploiting products in compliance with EPIC. At the same time, it is time for responsible palm oil companies to take a firm stance against plantation operators that destroy forests and do not comply with EPIC and good agricultural practices. It is acknowledged that there are problematic palm oil plantation companies. The answer to this is stricter monitoring and enforcement. If they want a better reputation, palm oil plantation operators must make greater commitments. The problem now is not palm oil. The problem is the destruction of forests and biodiversity due to poor plantation practices. Orangutans are just one of thousands of species living in the forest. A better policy is zero deforestation.</itunes:summary>

Heng Kiah Chun, Regional Campaign Strategist, Greenpeace Southeast Asia.
*Zero Deforestation is a Better Policy*
Last Wednesday, Malaysia's Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities, Johari Abdul Ghani, stated that Malaysia intends to introduce Orangutan Diplomacy (DOU), especially to major importing countries of Malaysian palm oil such as the European Union (EU), China, and India. Malaysia plans to gift a pair of adult orangutans to prove to the world that Malaysia is not a country that threatens the orangutan habitat and to highlight Malaysia's commitment at the international level to biodiversity restoration. 
Heng believes this is not the right way to convince the global community to accept Malaysian palm oil or to prove Malaysia's commitment to biodiversity conservation. Instead, a zero deforestation and zero forest exploitation policy would be more effective in convincing palm oil buyers and better preserving the survival of orangutans in Malaysia.
According to Heng, a community palm oil plantation project in Sumatra and another palm oil plantation project by the Indonesian Palm Oil Farmers Union in West Kalimantan have successfully demonstrated that palm oil cultivation can thrive without deforestation by practicing good agricultural practices using organic fertilizers. Additionally, the commitment of major companies that buy palm oil, not only palm oil but also soy and other vegetable oils, to purchase only zero-deforestation or non-forest-exploiting products in compliance with EPIC. At the same time, it is time for responsible palm oil companies to take a firm stance against plantation operators that destroy forests and do not comply with EPIC and good agricultural practices. It is acknowledged that there are problematic palm oil plantation companies. The answer to this is stricter monitoring and enforcement. If they want a better reputation, palm oil plantation operators must make greater commitments. The problem now is not palm oil. The problem is the destruction of forests and biodiversity due to poor plantation practices. Orangutans are just one of thousands of species living in the forest. A better policy is zero deforestation.</description>

Roland Engan, Human Rights Lawyer, cum Chairman of PKR Sarawak
*The Sarawak Native Courts should be free from Chief Minister's Office influence*
Roland Engan, a human rights lawyer and the Chairman of Keadilan Sarawak, advocates for the independence of the Sarawak Native Customary Courts from the influence of the Sarawak Chief Minister's Office.
The ongoing State Legislative Assembly (DUN) session has underscored the challenges in resolving Native Customary Rights Land disputes. According to the Deputy Minister in the Sarawak Chief Minister's Department (Law and Native Customary Laws), Datuk Jefferson Jamit Unyat, there are currently over 3,000 pending Native Customary Rights land dispute cases without resolution. Roland emphasizes that "delayed justice is injustice" and proposes a comprehensive reform of the Sarawak Native Customary Courts system. His proposals include increasing the number of judges and court officers, establishing a Special Academy to train court staff in Native Customary Laws, and ensuring that the appointment of judges in the Native Customary Courts is done by a commission comprising community and village chiefs to prevent government interference. He suggests that a special judicial commission for the Native Customary Courts in Sarawak is necessary to complement these reforms and to free the courts from political influence.
Roland points out that the Sarawak Native Customary Courts are currently under the Sarawak Chief Minister's Department, raising concerns about their independence from political influence. He suggests improving customary court procedures to expedite case resolutions and proposes that the power to adjudicate cases be returned to the village chiefs and community leaders, who are most knowledgeable about the land ownership history in their villages. He has received complaints from various parties about the lack of true independence in the Sarawak Native Customary Courts, as decisions are perceived to be influenced by the Sarawak Chief Minister's Office.</itunes:summary>

Thomas Fan, Chairman of Engage
*The Freedom Fund 2.0: Standing Up Against Defamation Lawsuits*
Yesterday, the Chairman of Engage, Thomas Fan, launched the "Freedom Fund 2.0" to collect donations from the public to help Clare RB, Gerakbudaya, and Vinlin Press pay a fine of RM300,000 and another RM120,000 for legal costs. Clare RB, Gerakbudaya, and Vinlin Press were found guilty of defaming the Sultanah of Terengganu, Sultanah Nurzahirah, in Clare's book titled "Sarawak Report: The Inside Story Of The 1MDB Expose" first edition. In the book, Clare was accused of defamation by writing that Sultanah Nurzahirah introduced Jho Lo to TIA (1MDB). After being informed of the mistake, in the second edition, Clare RB corrected the statement to reflect that it was actually the sister of the Sultan of Terengganu who introduced Jho Lo to TIA. Despite the correction, Sultanah Nurzahirah continued with the lawsuit against Clare. So far, Clare RB has managed to raise RM128,000 but is still short of RM292,000. When asked why the Malaysian people should help contribute to paying the fine for Clare, Thomas emphasized that Clare was the first person to expose the 1MDB scandal involving Najib and Rosmah, which ultimately led to the downfall of UMNO BN in the 2018 general election. If Clare had not exposed Najib's wrongdoing, it would have been impossible for a change in government to occur. As Malaysians, we should feel proud and grateful to Clare for her bravery, as her actions led to a change in government, the 1MDB case being brought to light, and Najib Razak being found guilty, a case that is still ongoing. Anyone can donate - even a small amount of RM10 as a token of appreciation to Clare RB, Gerakbudaya, and Vinlin Press. You can visit "sokong.org" or donate to Public Bank account 323 866 9514. If Clare and her colleagues win in the Federal Court, the funds collected will be used by Engage to help others facing lawsuits/fines for upholding their rights and freedom of speech. - Thomas Fann</itunes:summary>

YB Violet Yong, Member of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly - Padungan (DAP)
*Challenging the Truth: Opposition Rejects Thanking Taib Mahmud*
YB Violet Yong, a Member of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly for Padungan (DAP), shared that during the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly sitting from May 6 to 15, 2024, the assembly approved a motion to express special thanks to former Sarawak chief ministers/former Governors of Sarawak Taib Mahmud. Thirty members of the State Legislative Assembly debated the motion, with only two opposing it, namely YB Chong and YB Violet Yong herself.
YB Chong Cheing Jen faced heavy criticism from Sarawak State Legislative Assembly members from GPS for not supporting the motion. This was compounded by Chong's statement regarding suspicions in Taib's administration. Chong stood firm and stated that he would not apologize. According to Violet, Chong's statement was reasonable.
Violet emphasized the difficulties and disadvantages faced by the people of Sarawak when there are only two opposition representatives in the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly. Each ADUN is only given 20 minutes to speak, which often results in many important matters being left unsaid.
Violet expressed her respect for the people's choice in electing GPS. However, she highlighted that the people would also lose out if a balance of power is not achieved. Currently, GPS holds 80 out of a total of 82 seats in the assembly.
During the debate on the Sarawak Ports Bill 2024, Violet questioned the failure to deepen the shipping route to Senari Port, despite a proposed depth of 9 meters and an allocation of RM370 million from the federal government. She also noted that although the project did not succeed as promised, the Kuching Port Authority still collects RM1 per ton of cargo as a maintenance fee, even though there is little evidence of maintenance work being done.
Violet expressed sadness at the habit of GPS ministers not answering questions in the State Legislative Assembly. She hopes that the people will consider the need to give more votes to the opposition, even if it does not bring victory to PH in Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

Ooi Kok Hin, Executive Director of BERSIH 2.0
*The Role of Parliamentary Committees in SPR Appointments*
Today, in a press conference, Ooi Kok Hin stated that both the PH (Pakatan Harapan) and BN (Barisan Nasional) coalitions have twice reneged on their promises regarding the appointment of Election Commission (SPR) members. 
As mentioned in the PH and BN manifestos for the 15th general election (PRU15), both parties expressed their agreement to appoint SPR members through a Special Parliamentary Committee. However, to date, two SPR members have been appointed without going through Parliament. Will PH and BN renege on their promises for the third time, when the position of SPR Chairman will be vacant at the end of this month, Ooi questioned. 
Both dominant parties in this unity government accuse each other, stating that there is no joint manifesto stating agreement to appoint SPR members through a Parliamentary committee. So, the question now is whether GPS (Gabungan Parti Sarawak) opposes the proposal to appoint members through Parliament? 
Ooi said that GPS should be the one wanting the appointment of the SPR Chairman to be free from government influence because the redelineation of Sarawak's electoral constituencies will begin soon, and GPS certainly wants the redelineation to be fair - not influenced by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, through the appointment of the SPR Chairman by the Prime Minister. 
Ooi suggest GPS speak up. In addition to the appointment of SPR members through a Parliamentary committee, Ooi also suggested that the SPR be given enforcement powers and amendments to the election offenses act. 
Regarding the Kuala Kubu Baharu by-election, Ooi expressed his disappointment with the old culture of announcing projects in areas involved in elections. That is why we want the SPR to have enforcement powers so that the SPR does not have to wait for police reports or MACC investigations. Through enforcement powers, the SPR will act swiftly to ensure that democracy is conducted fairly for all parties.

Nick Kelesau, Penan Activist
*Penan Mobilize Against Samling's Logging Operations in Layun FMU*
Field information - Samling Logging Company is set to enter the Layun FMU soon after receiving approval from MTCS in February 2024. 
However, according to Nick, the Penan will block their entry as long as Samling does not meet the conditions they require. Last week, Nick Kelesau and his colleagues visited Long Pakan, Long Sayan, Long Belok, and Long Nen. These are Penan areas affected by logging within the Layun FMU (142,790 hectares). The Penan in these four settlements are still awaiting Samling's arrival to negotiate with them and adhere to their conditions. 
Samling has yet to meet with us, as stated by the Penan in Long Pakan. Meanwhile, the Penan in Long Nen completely oppose Samling's presence. Overall, the Penan are protesting against logging in their area. 
However, since they have been granted logging licenses, Samling must adhere to certain regulations, such as not cutting trees in conservation forests, not cutting protected trees, building roads and houses for the Penan community, and returning a certain percentage of profits to the Penan community. 
The Penan in Long Pakan have written to Samling asking them not to log in NCR land. If these conditions are not met, they will set up a blockade. 
Nick Kelesau's team was obstructed by a small group of Penan who support Village Head Sakaria Pada (a pro-Samling team). Trees were cut along the road to the logging area, preventing them from reaching the area designated for logging by Samling. Due to a small group of Penan being given money and projects by Samling, the Penan in Long Pakan are divided. Some support Samling, but the majority disagree with Samling's logging activities. The supporters are provided with new houses and incentives. These supporters include Sakaria Pada, who took over the position of village head from his father, Pada Jutang.</itunes:summary>

*Penan Mobilize Against Samling's Logging Operations in Layun FMU*
Field information - Samling Logging Company is set to enter the Layun FMU soon after receiving approval from MTCS in February 2024. 
However, according to Nick, the Penan will block their entry as long as Samling does not meet the conditions they require. Last week, Nick Kelesau and his colleagues visited Long Pakan, Long Sayan, Long Belok, and Long Nen. These are Penan areas affected by logging within the Layun FMU (142,790 hectares). The Penan in these four settlements are still awaiting Samling's arrival to negotiate with them and adhere to their conditions. 
Samling has yet to meet with us, as stated by the Penan in Long Pakan. Meanwhile, the Penan in Long Nen completely oppose Samling's presence. Overall, the Penan are protesting against logging in their area.

Nicholas Bawin, a former Deputy Chairman of the Majlis Adat Istiadat Sarawak (Mais)
*The Hidden Issues Behind Sarawak's Hydrogen Export Plans*
Nicholas Bawin has raised concerns over the District Office's failure to reappoint 12 tuai rumah/longhouse chiefs and 2 Kapitans. A handover ceremony for appointment letters and certificates was scheduled for May 7, 2024. According to a report by Borneo Post, they had received appointment letters but were instructed to return them due to technical issues. However, the latest list released dropped the names of the 12 tuai rumah and 2 Kapitans. The association alleges third-party interference. Bawin, citing historical precedent, stated that before or after James Brooke's rule, the appointment of village chiefs/tuai rumah or community leaders was entirely determined by the villagers themselves. The administrative role of the district office or resident's office was only to confirm the appointment by issuing certificates or letters of authority. This was because the past administration understood that the villagers were the ones who best knew who was the most authoritative and skilled leader. The problem faced now is due to political interference by the ruling party. They only appoint village chiefs who support their political party. Regarding the expectation that Sarawak will export 240,000 tonnes of hydrogen to Japan and Korea by 2028 - as mentioned by Sarawak Premier Johari Openg during the Sarawak Bumiputera Chamber Of Entrepreneurs (DUBS) Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebration. Bawin said that very little information is known by the people of Sarawak regarding hydrogen technology. The Sarawak Premier should explain to the people of Sarawak how they will benefit from this technology. Or is hydrogen energy only beneficial to giant companies? Because as residents of longhouses, they don't know what machines they have that use hydrogen power. Bawin mentioned serving on the board of directors of Sesco/SEB and being from Lubok Antu, where the Batang Ai hydroelectric dam is located. Until the end of his service, many longhouses were still not connected to electricity. This led him to believe that the hydro power generated in Sarawak is intended for industrial use, while longhouse residents are only supplied with solar-based electricity at 3000 watts for 12 hours, which he considers insufficient. Rural residents also need sufficient electricity for their daily lives.

Anthony Lerang Usang, Headman of Kenyah Badeng Long Urun Belaga
*The Uninvited Headman: Silenced Opposition to the Dam*
Anthony Lerang Usang, the headman of Kenyah Badeng Long Urun in Belaga, feels angry for not being invited to attend the village head meeting held on April 19, 2024. The meeting was organized to gather the views of the village heads regarding the government's proposal to build a dam on the Belaga River. 
The Urun River, a tributary of the Belaga River, flows through the upper division. Lerang expressed his anger and sadness for not receiving an invitation. He, along with the residents of Long Urun, has witnessed the hardships faced by the residents of the Bakun and Murum resettlement areas. They strongly oppose the construction of a dam on the Belaga River. Lerang believes that the main issue that will arise is disputes over land. 
Long Urun is currently facing a land problem, as their land is being encroached upon not only by oil palm plantation companies but also by the residents of Sungai Asap (Bakun resettlement) who want to cultivate rice and gardens. Lerang criticizes the government for not providing enough land to the residents of Sungai Asap. He questions why the residents of Bakun and Murum are facing increasing difficulties despite the presence of a dam in their area. 
As the village head, Lerang intends to protest if the government proceeds with the dam construction. Despite the construction of the Bakun mega dam in Belaga, village chiefs in Belaga continue to complain about the inadequate roads, bridges, and land transport connections. Lerang highlighted an article in the Dayak Daily newspaper where village chiefs from Belaga expressed dissatisfaction with the discontinuation of the Belaga-Kapit express boat service, which has forced them to travel long distances by road. The road from Belaga to Kapit remains unbuilt, and the Belaga-Bakun road is only one lane. Lerang believes that these infrastructural shortcomings demonstrate that the dam does not benefit the local economy as promised by the Premier of Sarawak. He asserts that the idea that the dam will bring progress is a lie. Lerang warns that the dam will only lead to more land conflicts and disputes.

John Bara, Resident of Uma Akeh, Baram
*Standing Up to Encroachment: Community Fight for Fairness*
John Bara felt compelled to inspect his family's land leased to the quarry company Batu Holy Stone owned by Shin Yang since 1996 - about 28 years ago. In the original agreement, Shin Yang Holy Stone would mine stones on a 4.16-acre land and in return, they would rent the land on a monthly basis. However, what is surprising is that all of the 19.08 hectares of land have been excavated by Shin Yang Holy Stone. When John Bara's family objected and requested additional payment and compensation, the workers of Holy Stone made a police report against them. 
Earlier today, John Bara's family met with the Holy Stone representatives and they were invited to a meeting at the Shin Yang Holy Stone HQ in Miri. They declined because only a few of them would be able to make it to Miri and it would also be difficult for them to get the views of other family members living in Kampung Uma Akeh. Therefore, the final decision was to hold the meeting with Shin Yang Holy Stone in Uma Akeh on May 4, 2024. 
They are demanding additional rent and compensation for the 28 years during which Holy Stone did not inform them that they had encroached on their land beyond the limits allowed in the agreement. Lawyer Harrison Ngau is representing their family in this claim. One problem they face in this case is that their village headman is siding with Shin Yang Holy Stone. The village headman testified that the quarry area land is communal land of Kampung Uma Akeh. On the contrary - it is clear that their family has a title deed that is surveyed under sec 18.

Gereng Jadum, Penan in the Metalun-Murum Resettlement Area
*Sarawak's Mega Dam Plans: Development or Displacement?*
On April 28, Sarawak Premier Abang Johari spoke at the World Water Day celebration with the theme "water for peace." Johari reiterated that the state government will build 3 more dams in Gaat, Belaga, and Tutoh. These mega dams will be built using the latest technology that does not flood NCR land, does not affect the local communities, and does not disrupt their way of life. According to Johari, the electricity generated will boost the economy and improve the living standards of the people. Johari also mentioned that many NGOs do not understand the concept of mega dams.
However, Gereng Jadum in the Metalun-Murum Resettlement Area, said that the communities' lives were severely affected when the Murum dam was built. They were relocated to Tegulang and Metalun settlements. Before the dam was built, the government made various promises of development. But after the dam was built, none of the promises were fulfilled. Until now, they have to source their own drinking water every day.
Gereng said that they built a small dam on a hill and connected pipes to their homes. Promises of agricultural development were made, but they were not given agricultural land lots. Until now, all of them relocated to Tegulang and Metalun are still living in poverty. How can Johari dare to say that dams can advance the economy of the people? We already know that the government will only promise sweet things. But when the dam is built, that's when we see the long-lasting negative effects - said Gereng Jadum.

Mutang Tuo, Spokesperson for Penan Long Iman.
*Penan Villagers Disagree with Shin Yang's Forest Restrictions and Carbon Wood Plantation Plans*
Mutang Tuo attended a dialogue session between the villagers of Long Iman with Shin Yang company on April 25, 2024. 
Shin Yang Company informed that they will plant Carbon Wood in the Penan forest area. They said, the purpose is that our forest will have more wood and make the air fresher. How for this to happen? We Penan people are no longer allowed to enter the forest and are no longer allowed to cut wood, hunt and collect forest products. This is what makes us Penan disagree. How could we not enter the forest, while we do depend on living through the forest – said Mutang Tuo.
Mutang Tuo comment that, Shin Yang does not need to plant carbon trees in our forest, because high quality wood will build itself, as long as no logging company comes to cut down. 
“We also informed Shin Yang that we no longer trust Shin Yang. Shin Yang has told us many promises from a long time ago, but not fulfilled. Until now the promised road to our longhouse has not been built by Shin Yang, but the wood in our area has been cut down.”
The Shin Yang staff who came handed out forms and Mutang and his communities were asked many questions. Some of them hand over Mykad so that personal details can be entered in the form. He said that, another part of them refused to issue Mykad, but only mention the name. 
They mentioned repeatedly that they do not agree with Shin Yang coming in and planting carbon trees in their area. 
But we had a problem, because none of us knew how to write a protest letter to send to the government or Shin Yang. We need your help out there- Mutang Tuo said. Shin Yang will hold the same dialogue session in Long Payau on May 2, 2024.

Jeffery Baudi, Resident Representative of SFI Housing Park
*Lack of Awareness or Action? Sabah Chief Minister Faces Backlash Over SFI Workers' Concerns*
Jeff expressed his disappointment with the response of Sabah Chief Minister Hajiji Noor regarding the welfare issues of SFI workers discussed on the third day of the Sabah State Legislative Assembly. When questioned by the president of the Warisan party and opposition leader in the Sabah State Assembly, Shafie Afdal, Hajiji stated that he was not very familiar with the issues faced by SFI and would provide a written response. How can a chief minister still not know and not take action when the problems faced by SFI workers have been ongoing for almost a year? "If you don't know, we invite you to come and visit and see our situation for yourself," said Jeffery Baudi. 
In his response during the State Assembly session, Hajiji also stated that the SFI workers who had been terminated had already been re-employed. Jeffery stated that less than 1% of the former workers who were terminated and are still residing in SFI housing have been re-employed. Instead, the SFI management has hired external workers as lorry drivers, security guards, and acacia wood cutters, and we don't know where they are from. In a press conference today, we urge Hajiji to visit and see our situation for himself. After that, make an immediate decision. If there is no decision, pay us 5 months' salary plus compensation—that's our demand," said Jeffery Baudi.

John Brian Anthony, Sarawak Political Analyst
*Sarawak's Call for Inclusive Policy Representation*
John Brian was surprised by the statement from the Prime Minister's Department appointing 4 policy advisors to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. All of them are from Malaya, none from Sarawak. His question is - does PM Anwar truly understand the situation in Sarawak to the extent that he does not need policy advisors from Sarawak, or does PMX only rely on GPS advice? - asks John Brian. 
John believes Professor Dr. Madeline Berma, a Dayak Sarawakian economist, is qualified to advise the Prime Minister. Prof. Madeline has conducted many studies and has been in rural areas in Sarawak. 
When asked about new policies that need to be implemented in Sarawak, John Brian believes that many reforms need to be done immediately to qualify Anwar as the Father of Reform. Among the policies currently formulated, he sees the importance of the 3 main races - Malays, Chinese, and Indians. Now is the time for the Dayaks to be included. Policies should not prioritize only one religion but instead provide assistance and attention to all religions in Malaysia. 
The role of the Malay sultans is so dominant in the administration of the country. Why doesn't the TYT of Sarawak have the same authority? Current land policies tend to grant PL to giant companies that are already wealthy. But why doesn't the government gazette land for development by poor villagers and rural areas? The same company is given the opportunity to build wealth repeatedly. The poor are left behind. It is time for the government to establish an agency focused on devising ways to develop the Dayak of Sarawak, which goes down to the ground to meet and dialogue with the poor in simple language - says John Brian.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst from Sarawak
*Don't blame PMX, blame GPS and the Premier of Sarawak*
Two days ago, the office of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim issued a media statement announcing the appointment of 4 individuals to the Policy Advisory Committee to the Prime Minister. They are PETRONAS Chairman - Hassan Marican, Economist - Professor Dr. Yeah Kim Leng, Researcher - Dr. Nungsari Ahmad Radhi, and corporate sector representative - Executive Chairman of FVSB Sdn.Bhd Ahmad Fuad Md Ali. 
The four of them will advise the prime minister on national development and economic resilience. They will not be paid a salary. However, since the media statement was issued, the public in Sarawak has begun to criticize the prime minister for being unfair. There are no representatives from Sabah and Sarawak in the Committee. Despite the fact that the states with the highest number of poor people are in Sabah and Sarawak, and Sabah and Sarawak are geographically quite far from the administrative center of Putrajaya. Don't blame PMX, blame GPS and the Premier of Sarawak - says Iswardy. Previously, many policies and initiatives that accelerated and strengthened the development of states and the country were implemented in other states but opposed in Sarawak. For example, GPS opposed the implementation of MPKK, PEDI, and the latest is PADU. Several central government proposals related to communication, education, and health could not be implemented in Sarawak because Sarawak insisted on maintaining its autonomy. I support Sarawak in maintaining autonomy over appropriate matters. But if the central government's proposals accelerate and enhance state administration, they should be approved. It seems that GPS and the Premier of Sarawak are afraid of the reforms implemented by PMX and they want to maintain their popularity in Sarawak. Iswardy advised the leaders of GPS Sarawak to accept any good proposals that can improve the living standards of the people of Sarawak. GPS wants to manage their affairs in Sarawak. This will prevent the people from being grateful to PMX.

Pangai Anak Jimbai, Resident of the Longhouse Sungai Laung Bakong, Tinjar, Baram
*Decades Later: Lawyer Roland Engan Brings Justice to Sungai Laung*
In 2013, the palm oil plantation company Asam Bumi Plantation opened a palm oil plantation in the NCR land of the Sungai Laung residents. The majority of residents opposed it because it affected their livelihoods. 
Most of the residents' land is included in the PL granted to the Asam Bumi Plantation company. Despite objections and several police reports being made, the company still encroached on the residents' land and started planting palm oil. 
Pangai Anak Jimbai and his family (6 doors/6 heads of families) own a 6.5-hectare garden that was affected. Asam Bumi Plantation did not pay any compensation. They are trying to regain the seized land. 
Pangai and his siblings hired a lawyer named Yong Wong. However, after several years, Pangai found that the lawyer was conspiring to defraud the villagers. The villagers felt cheated and had lost tens of thousands of ringgit. 
Pangai said that, thanks to the help of Lawyer Roland Engan, the case of the Sungai Laung Longhouse residents will be heard in the coming months. 
Therefore, I fully agree and support the demand for Section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code 1958 to be repealed - said Pangai Anak Jimbai.</itunes:summary>

Malang Laing, Resident of Long Keseh, Baram. 
*Standing Firm: The Battle Against Timber Companies*
Accused in court of committing violent crimes causing fear to timber truck drivers in 2021, Malang Laing is grateful to have been released without being acquitted, but somewhat disappointed for not being able to sue the police and timber companies that made baseless accusations against him.
"I fought against timber companies and blocked the timber truck drivers around 2021, 2022, and 2023 (I blocked timber truck drivers several times)," said Malang Laing.
"I blocked 5 timber truck drivers (along with trucks loaded with timber) because their work was disrupted. Then the truck drivers, along with the Camp manager, filed a police report against me. However, before I blocked the trucks, I made 3 police reports at 3 different police stations to stop logging in Long Keseh (KM15) because it did not bring any benefits or goodness to the villagers. However, my reports were ignored. I was also accused of assaulting and intimidating truck drivers. However, all those accusations are false. I was represented by lawyer Roland Engan, and I was released without being acquitted on April 17, 2024.
Malang Laing said to all indigenous land rights activists in Sarawak to rise up and defend their rights. He said, "Timber companies have no right to enter your customary land." Activists must be brave because they are right, patient because they are right, diligent because they are right, persevere because they are right, and loyal because they are right.</itunes:summary>

Gebriel Atong, activist from Punan Bah, Belaga 
*GPS slogan: Sarawak First? Lets see what happened in Bakun Dam*
The completion of the Bakun Dam 25 years ago has not resolved the challenges faced by the children of Punan Bah, downstream of Bakun, who still need to take boats to school due to the lack of express boat services and unrepaired roads. Gebriel Atong stated that GPS (Gabungan Parti Sarawak) has been the state government for over 50 years and should understand the situation and difficulties of the inland people, with sufficient time to address the infrastructure problems they face.
He mentioned that even the schools there still rely on generators for electricity. Education is a fundamental right, yet children are learning in facilities without complete equipment. He expressed that GPS's slogan is "Sarawak First," but this is just a slogan without real action. This raises doubts about who the "first" is focused on. Sarawak is rich in natural resources, but the inland people live in poverty.
He called on communities in areas where dams are being constructed to consider the difficulties faced by the people of Bakun Dam.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, PKR Baram Communications Director
*Join Us Tomorrow: Kick Start Campaign to Repeal Section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code 1958*
The Kick Start campaign to repeal section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code 1958 will start tomorrow - 19 April 2024, at the parking lot of Wisma Madani Jalan Tanjong Lubang, Miri. All parties are invited to attend. Especially the parties whose rights are affected by the seizure of NCR land and also those who are dealing with NCR land claims in Court. 
This is the best opportunity to meet and hear the explanation of the effect of the use of section 5(7) of the Sarawak land code over the years. With this repeal directly the NCR Bumiputra Sarawak land ownership is recognized and in any dispute. The party challenging the right of ownership must bear the burden of proof. Let us all bury section 5(7) together with Taib Mahmud - Said Dennis Along. Dennis further explained that section 5(7) was created and included in the Sarawak Land Code during the administration of former chief minister Taib Mahmud. It is the most effective method of legally seizing NCR bumiputra land.

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*Controversy Surrounding Najib Razak's Home Arrest for Remaining Prison Sentence*
The media is prohibited from covering the judicial review of the application for Naib Razak to spend the remainder of his 6-year prison sentence at home. Judge Amarjeet Sigh - today allowed Muhammad Shafee Abdulah's application for the open proceedings of the application to be changed to a trial in chambers. The question is why the trial in the room? Najib claimed that there was an addendum (supplement) to the king's order ordering that the remaining 6 years of prison be served at home and Najib wanted the court to confirm the existence of the addendum and the implementation of the addendum instructions immediately. Why does Najib's lawyer want a trial in chambers? And is it true that the addendum exists?
According to Iswardy, the main reason why Najib's lawyer wanted the trial in chambers was because he did not want to expose evidence that there might not be an addendum as alleged. although it is possible that if Najib fails the review - Najib's campaign team can still play the propaganda. 
Second. The Minister of Home Affairs has confirmed that there is no addendum as alleged. On the other hand, Najib's application letter to request that the remainder of his sentence be served at home does exist. 
The next question is, why is there inconsistency in the statements of some ministers in the unity government? The simple answer from Iswardy is - in UMNO there are several teams that support and some oppose Najib. The team that supports Najib has a number of members in the cabinet of the unity government. They fought hard to free Najib and believe that Najib is innocent and persecuted. 
Regarding Tun M's question to MACC. Will the MACC ask Anwar and his family to explain the source of their wealth like the MACC asked Mirzan and Mokhzani to declare their wealth. Iswardy asked Tun M to submit evidence to the MACC that did Anwar give contracts or projects to his family members and is there evidence that Anwar's family has extraordinary wealth? If Tun M is able to include evidence. So the MACC should also act against Anwar - Iswardy said.

Roland Engan, Customary Land and Human Rights Lawyer
*Justice Delayed: Campaign to Repeal Land Code Section for NCR Resolution*
Sarawak plans to construct 10 more dams in areas with strong river currents identified as potential sites for generating electricity. The Minister of Public Utilities and Telecommunications, Sarawak, Julaihi Narawi, announced that three areas - Tutoh, Belaga, and Gaat - have been approved for dam construction following agreement from the local residents.
However, Roland Engan expressed disappointment, stating, 'I am very disappointed by the repeated statements regarding the dam construction projects and the claims that the local communities have agreed to these projects.' He mentioned that he had personally surveyed the opinions of the communities and found that the majority disagreed with the construction of the dams. Many residents were unaware of the projects, and there had been no consultation or request for their opinions. This lack of consultation indicates a failure of the GPS government to respect the basic rights of the people and to acknowledge their rights to the land they inhabit.
Roland emphasized that in the proposed dam construction sites, there are 'custodians' whose rights must be respected. He stressed that any development project must adhere to the principle of Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) from the affected communities. Engan challenged the GPS to include the dam construction projects in their manifesto for the upcoming elections, allowing the people to evaluate and decide whether they support GPS's stance on dam development.
Furthermore, Roland is campaigning to repeal section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code 1958. He questions why the rights of the Bumiputra, who are the majority in Sarawak's administration, regarding land ownership are not respected. Section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code was inserted or amended during Taib Mahmud's administration, resulting in delays in resolving 3,000 NCR (Native Customary Rights) cases in the Sarawak Bumiputra Court. Engan believes that repealing this section will lead to the quick resolution of these cases and, most importantly, restore justice to the original landowners, as 'Justice delayed is injustice.'</itunes:summary>

He questions why the rights of the Bumiputra, who are the majority in Sarawak's administration, regarding land ownership are not respected. Section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code was inserted or amended during Taib Mahmud's administration, resulting in delays in resolving 3,000 NCR (Native Customary Rights) cases in the Sarawak Bumiputra Court. Engan believes that repealing this section will lead to the quick resolution of these cases and, most importantly, restore justice to the original landowners, as 'Justice delayed is injustice.'</description>

Roland Engan, Human Rights and Land Lawyer NCR
*Empowering Indigenous Communities: Suggestions for Amending the Sarawak Land Code*
Roland explained that section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code is not only unfair but also cruel to the people of Sarawak. He suggested that section 5(7) of the Sarawak Land Code be repealed. 
According to Roland- currently if there is a dispute over the ownership of NCR land, the land is automatically considered government land. 
With the repeal of section 5(7) when there is a dispute, so it is the government that should prove they are entitled to the land with written evidence/letters or maps kept at the land office. 
With the current situation, the biggest losers are the bumiputras of Sarawak and the biggest winners are developers who are awarded PL. It should be when the Bumiputra people become the Premier and dominate the state administration. The rightful rights of land owners should be restored. 
However, Roland also suggested that the amendment of the Sarawak Land Code involves all non-grant land being considered as customary land. Traditional village boundary land is a custom that has the force of law. Customary land rights cannot be abolished. The Bumiputra of Sarawak can lease their land to the government as well as to non-bumiputra parties and the Indigenous Land Development Fund must be established. 
Lastly, Roland suggested that tribal leaders and community leaders must be chosen by themselves according to local community customs and traditions and tribal leaders and community leaders be empowered under the Native Court Ordinance to hear customary land cases.</itunes:summary>

Mutang Tuo, Ketua Kampung Penan Long Iman Baram
*Profit over Preservation: The Samling Project Critique*
Mutang Tuo knew about the Samling Project (SaraCarbon) in Long Linai Marudi from Radio Free Sarawak and strongly disagrees with it. They argue that only Samling and the Sarawak Government will benefit financially from the project, whereas the Penan people, who have cared for the forest for generations, should be the ones rewarded for their conservation efforts.
Mutang Tuo believes that the Penan people are far superior in maintaining the sustainability of the forest compared to companies like Samling. They emphasize that the Penan only take what is necessary from the forest and do not destroy animal habitats, unlike the Sarawak government and the Forestry Department, which grant licenses for commercial logging and plantations, leading to habitat destruction.
Mutang Tuo expresses concern that the carbon trading project will restrict their access to the forest and make their lives more difficult.</itunes:summary>

*Unanswered Questions: Indigenous Rights and Samling's Carbon Study Permit*
Since the news of Samling Company - through its subsidiary SaraCarbon being granted a Carbon Study permit by the Sarawak Government on 39,000 hectares of land in Marudi was published. Local people there. Especially in Linai Marudi River. Where the area involved houses the Acacia monoculture farm - Syarikat Samling. Residents began visiting the Sahabat Alam office in Marudi to raise objections. Residents objected because they were unsure of the actual land area involved. They are also not sure whether they will be compensated or not or whether they will get a return from carbon trading by Samling on their land. Residents request that Samling organize an open dialogue. But according to Jok Jau. So far Samling conducts all their activities quietly and privately. Samling only met with the head of the village/household and a strong supporter of GPS. To give an explanation to the residents - SAM will organize a meeting with the residents next May. The majority of residents who came to the SAM office objected to the carbon credit project to be implemented by Samling. Residents are worried that they will lose their place to farm and get their daily needs. Because the rural poor are very dependent on the forest as a source of life. if carbon trading is enforced in their area. Then residents will be prevented from entering and farming in the area involved. Asked how good carbon trading should be for indigenous people. Jok Jau believes that every process that goes through should go through open consultation. There is an agreement that is binding and beneficial to both parties and agreed by the majority. The results of the profit and loss analysis of carbon trading carried out by Sarawak Report - through Verra Accreditation assessment agency. Samling through SaraCarbon will earn a profit of USD 2 billion for 39,000 hectares for 60 years. The Sarawak government will earn RM230 million through levies and royalties. The question is what do the people who look after and preserve the forest all this time get?. Jok Jau said the original people had been cheated in logging and plantation. By laws and implementation that are not transparent and unfair. Far more complicated carbon trading will see the original people cheated again.

Nicholas Mujah, Sarawakian environmentalist cum Secretary General of SADIA
*Sarawak will definitely fail to achieve the goal of zero carbon emissions by 2050*
In Hari Raya Aidilfitri message today, Sarawak Premier Johari Openg stated that Sarawak is ready to help Asian countries achieve the goal of zero carbon emissions by 2050. Johari mentioned that Sarawak has the potential for 20 GW of hydro energy, green hydrogen energy, floating solar energy, and biomass from forest resources. The cascading dam project will be implemented in Sg. Gaat in Baleh. Johari also mentioned that Sarawak is ready to sell hydropower to Brunei and Sabah, and to Singapore through a 700 km long submarine line.
According to Mujah, the energy resource planning chosen by Sarawak will create economic opportunities but will still pollute the environment. Any dam project that involves felling trees, flooding large areas of land, displacing forest and human habitats, and blocking river flow will impact the environment, contribute to global warming, and release significant amounts of carbon. As evidence, Sarawak is known for not complying with sustainable product standards. Sarawak's timber and agricultural products face restrictions in several European countries. Mujah believes that Sarawak has failed in environmental management. He views Johari's statements as propaganda intended to deceive the rural community. Mujah is confident that with the current energy plan, Sarawak will not achieve the goal of zero carbon emissions by 2050.

John Bara, Resident of Uma Akeh, Baram
*Infrastructure Challenges in Baram: Residents Voice Concerns Over Road Quality and Project Oversight*
The Baram Highlands Development Agency (HDA) has issued an update (28 Feb 2024) of the infrastructure projects being implemented in Baram. Overall, the road construction project (RM 649 million - 316 km), building and upgrading a clean water supply plant and an electricity supply project. All at a cost of RM729 million. It is mentioned in the report that the road to Uma Akeh has been completed and can be passed by residents. 
But according to John Bara, even though the road is ready, the quality of the road is very bad, there are no iron barriers installed and in many areas the road is built too steeply. 
On May 28, 2023, residents of Uma Akeh and residents of Baram met with the contractor Kendiry Mas Sdn.Bhd. But all the complaints submitted by the residents are ignored and not improved.
Therefore I expect that this road will be damaged quickly - John Bara said. 
He said he request the authorities to closely monitor the projects carried out under the HDA and to investigate and prosecute the deviant parties. The quality of the road is very important for them, the rural residents because they want to use this road forever. 
This 316 km long road will go through Long Lama to the Long Temala junction. Will be connected to the longhouses of Uma Akeh, Kampung Sungai 2, Long Bemeng, Long Wat, Long Buang, Long Tujang and to Long Atip. While the clean water supply project - water intake and treatment plan, high level tank and water booster station will be built in Long Pelutan, Long Loyang, Long Pilah, Long San, Long Kevok and Long Anap - Each with an allocation of RM10 million per village. While RM5 million to upgrade the Long Bedia clean water supply plant and RM15 million to build the Long Bemang clean water plant. While the electricity supply project will be continued by SARES - using 100% solar hybrid. We residents will always report what is not right and we hope that the government will take strict action against contractors who fail to implement the agreed contracts – John Bara said</itunes:summary>

We residents will always report what is not right and we hope that the government will take strict action against contractors who fail to implement the agreed contracts – John Bara said</description>

Iswardy Morni, Sarawak Political Analyst
*The merger of PSB with PDP in GPS Sarawak will make it easier for PH to campaign in Sarawak in the upcoming election*
Last weekend the PSB party - Parti Sarawak Bersatu was disbanded. PSB supporters and leaders were absorbed into the PDP Party which is one of the 4 GPS component parties. 
Asked whether the action made the GPS stronger and eroded support for PH Sarawak? Iswardy admitted that GPS became stronger with the increase of 4 seats won by PSB. Now GPS has 80 out of 82 Sarawak state assembly seats, while 2 more seats were won by DAP. 
But for Iswardy, this development makes it easier for the people of Sarawak to make decisions in the upcoming election. In the last state election, PSB disguised itself as an opposition party that was said to replace GPS, so the people are influenced by the propaganda. Sarawakians are more likely to vote for local opposition parties such as PSB (Sarawak) than for opposition parties from Malaya (DAP/PKR). 
Asked why there is no formation of a unity government at the state level? According to Iswardy, GPS does not want a unity government at the state level, unless PH and DAP are dissolved in Sarawak, same as PSB, that is impossible to happen. 
Thus, for Iswardy-GPS has started the election process, and PH Sarawak should be ready and do similar movements that benefit PH. 
First, PH should declare that it will fight GPS in all contested seats. PH Sarawak should also find a formula/give information so that the people of Sarawak don't hate the Malayan party. Also explained that GPS Sarawak has no choice, but to cooperate with the Malayan party to rule the country. GPS is just a party that exists in Sarawak and wins only in Sarawak. On the other hand, PH won 82 parliamentary seats and won in the states of Penang, Negeri Sembilan and Selangor.

Voon Lee Shan, President of Bumi Kenyalang Party (PBK).
*Restoring Indigenous Rights: Challenging GPS Control Over Tribal Leader Appointments*
Voon thinks that the GPS/Sarawak Government should be dragged to court for interfering in the appointment of tribal leaders and local community leaders. 
Speaking to RFS, Voon stressed that the matter of appointing tribal leaders and community leaders in Sarawak has been customary since generations. Even the federal Constitution recognizes custom as part of the law and has the force of law. For a long time the village community appointed the most skilled individuals to lead them. Until now it was taken over by the Sarawak government through the appointment committee of tribal leaders and community leaders at the District Office/Resident Office level. This committee is also composed of YB/local people's representatives. There are also local communities that choose their own leaders. But if not approved by GPS/Government then they will not be given salary or letter of appointment. 
Voon suggested that this matter needs to be overhauled and return the right to appoint the head of the tribe/village to the hands of the village community itself. If there is a case of obstruction, appoint by the community by GPS. So please drag GPS/Sarawak government to court. 
In addition, what is the relationship between the appointment of the head of the tribe/village and the rights of the NCR? According to Voon, only the head of the village or the head of the house can and knows how to identify NCR land rights in a village, therefore only they can confirm and authorize ownership. Unfortunately when the head of the village/household is appointed by the GPS. So it is GPS that has the power to nullify the Dayak people's rights to NCR land. This is a very unfortunate episode for the Dayak people and it should be dealt with immediately. - Voon Lee Shan said.

Roland Engan in the framework of 1 day to the Belawai District in the Tajong Manis Parliamentary constituency. He attended at the invitation of the residents of 3 long houses, namely Rh. Crouching, Rh. Francis and Rh. Datu. 
These three longhouses were affected due to the acquisition of NCR land for the development of Halal Hub in Tanjong Manis. Residents demand that their land be removed from being used as a Halal Hub site and if forced to use it, they must be paid a fair price. All conflicting parties can face each other in a dialogue that reaches an agreement.
 The developers - Tanjong Manis Food Industris and GP Pusaka Sdn. Bhd - agreed to pay damages/compensation to the residents whose land was affected if the residents were able to prove their ownership rights over the developed land. Residents are grateful that the land leveling process has not yet been implemented. This gives them a great opportunity to prove their temuda, gardens and crops that are on the land. The residents were represented by Lawyer Roland Engan while GP Pusaka Sdn.Bhd was represented by Lawyer George Lo. 
Roland hopes that residents who are facing NCR land problems to contact him early so that the proof will be easier to do. Roland expects this case to side with the residents of the 3 longhouses he represents

Adrian Pereira, Executive Director of the North South initiative
*Improving the Rights and Protection of Foreign Workers in Malaysia*
For more than 30 years, Malaysia has depended on foreign labor to meet its workforce needs. In 30 years, Malaysia should have been able to produce a complete, orderly system and comprehensive labor-related laws. 
However, the disclosure of the report by the committee related to migrant labor (report issued in 2023) - through the study conducted in 2018-2019 shows that there are still many weaknesses and confusion by some parties. 
What happened to Siselia Putri and Wendy Dara is a common case because these foreign workers do not clearly know the right method to come to work in Malaysia and coupled with the greedy attitude of the employment agencies and fake employers and the widespread symptoms of corruption. 
The main cause of this problem is incorrect information obtained in the country of origin. Most of the migrant workers who use the services of employment agencies are poorly educated. Some are unable to confirm whether the information obtained is correct or not. There are also those who do not know about the need for work permits, passports, work contracts and human rights. Thus when meeting with greedy employment agencies and fake employers who want to get rich quickly, then there were cases of persecution of migrant workers. 
The movement of migrant labor from the country of origin with incomplete documents will cause cases of human smuggling and cases of human trafficking. When arriving in the country where they are supposed to work and be paid the wages as promised. With the weaknesses mentioned earlier they will be exploited easily, although Malaysia has a Private Employment Agency Act, but monitoring and enforcement by the government is very low. 
Andrian advised foreign workers who want to work in this country or even Malaysian workers who want to work abroad to check the list of valid employment agencies in their respective embassies and to clearly know the labor rights and human rights in the country they are going to.</itunes:summary>

John Brian Anthony, Sarawak Political Analyst.
*GPS misusing public funds for partisan political purposes*
1 April 2024- a total of 20 political secretaries (new appointments) to Sarawak Premier Johari Openg took the oath and signed a secret letter as well as the presentation of the appointment letter. With the appointment, this means that the Premier of Sarawak has a total of 32 political secretaries. Their appointment is for 2 years and will end in April 2026. The salary of a political secretary is RM9000 per month not including allowances. This means that the salary for these 32 political secretaries alone reaches RM3.35 million a year. Why so many political secretaries? Whereas Malaysian prime minister Anwar Ibrahim only has 3 political secretaries. John thinks this is a waste of taxpayers' money and a misuse of public funds for partisan political purposes. All these political secretaries are those proposed by YB from the PBB, SUPP, PRS and PDP parties. According to John, public funds should not be used to pay the salaries of political officials. After all, this appointed political secretary is only on duty to launch YBYB's political tasks in certain areas. They sometimes intimidate those who dare to oppose the government. They also threaten village leaders who are not aligned with the government and sometimes they will act more aggressively with words and actions. In other words. They are spies of the Premier of Sarawak. The position of political secretary is a training phase for GPS to assess the potential of a person to be appointed as an election candidate. It is proven that many of them have become YB (representatives of the people) after taking up the position involved. John suggested that the appointment of many political secretaries be stopped and also stop the use of people's money to promote political parties.</itunes:summary>

They also threaten village leaders who are not aligned with the government and sometimes they will act more aggressively with words and actions. In other words. They are spies of the Premier of Sarawak. The position of political secretary is a training phase for GPS to assess the potential of a person to be appointed as an election candidate. It is proven that many of them have become YB (representatives of the people) after taking up the position involved. John suggested that the appointment of many political secretaries be stopped and also stop the use of people's money to promote political parties.</description>

Iswardy Morni. Sarawak political analyst
*Public Unconcerned with Proper Registration, But GPS Cronies Fear Property Exposure*
Sarawak Premier Johari Openg said that the information requested by PADU was too detailed to cause public concern. That is why the Sarawak government has requested that the registration of PADU in Sarawak be postponed. 
Iswardy questioned Johari's statement that PADU only asked for 9 basic information, namely basic information of the individual, household, address, job, education, income, commitment, assistance and finally the certificate. Padu asks for individual bank acc no so that cash aid can be credited directly to the aid recipient's account. 
The government aid scheme has also asked for the acc number of the recipient. If this is questioned by the Sarawak government, SarawakPay also requests the same information. Why does the Sarawak government agree with SarawakPay's actions but oppose PADU? 
In addition, according to Iswardy, PADU data is more comprehensive to determine if the aid recipient is really eligible. All this time with the old government system and data. There are rich individuals who receive government subsidies, on the other hand, many poor people do not get help. Whatever the actions of the Sarawak government. PADU registration in Sarawak is still encouraging and iswardy urges the public to register with PADU in the remaining 3 days. The Sarawak government should not worry too much because the representative of the Sarawak government/GPS is in the ministry of economy. Hanifah Hajar Taib is the deputy minister of economy. But GPS's concern is actually exposing the unusually large number of poor people in Sarawak.
The public is not worried about registering properly, only GPS cronies are worried about their property information being exposed. Even though they are rich, they still want to enjoy government subsidies.</itunes:summary>

Shaq Koyok, artist and activist from the Temuan tribe
*Identity Struggles: Shaq Koyok's Fight for Recognition*
Shaq Koyok comes from the village of Pulau Kempas in Selangor and has not had an identity card since birth. The government is proposing to amend Section (a) Part 2, Second Schedule of the federal constitution to no longer automatically grant citizenship to foreigners residing in the country. 
Currently, anyone born in Malaysia with at least one parent who is a Malaysian citizen or a permanent resident in Malaysia automatically receives citizenship. The government plans to remove the term "permanent resident." 
For Shaq, this proposed amendment is cruel and inhumane, as it would make our current difficult situation even more challenging. Currently, many indigenous people in Sabah, Sarawak, and the peninsula do not have identity cards or citizenship, which is a failure of the government. If a stateless native marries a foreigner, what will happen to their children's fate? 
Shaq suggests that the government first solve the citizenship problem among the natives of the peninsula, Sabah, and Sarawak. For a long time, JAKOA (the Department of Aboriginal Affairs) has forbidden raising the issue of the lack of identity cards among indigenous people to avoid embarrassing the government. 
However, Shaq, as an indigenous child without an identity card, has been denied the right to receive any help. During school, Shaq did not receive any government assistance due to not having an identity card. Shaq believes there is no need for this amendment. Instead, the government should focus on solving the citizenship problem among Malaysians.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Social and environmental activist
*GPS tried to confuse the people regarding Cascading Dam, Carbon Trading and PADU*
Dennis is on his way to the villages of Tutoh and Tinjar in Baram parliament. In an effort to provide information to the villagers regarding some of the latest issues. But according to Dennis in the many issues raised - there are 3 issues that are of concern and confuse rural residents. That is the issue of carbon trading, cascading dams and PADU. Rural residents are confused about whether or not to support carbon trading and whether they will benefit. In the law passed in the Sarawak State Assembly related to carbon trading. Ordinary people will not be paid if their land is used. PL will be issued by the state government to large companies. Just like in the matter of palm oil plantations and logging. But in this matter GPS sings that carbon trading will protect the environment and the people will be able to benefit. Related to Cascading dams GPS/Sarawak government said that cascading dams are not building dams or drowning rivers and villages. It is to build a waterfall that will be a tourist attraction, increase oxygen in the river and prevent the breeding of crocodiles. The people were persuaded to agree that their village and land be used for the cascading Dam. For registration and updating PADU. GPS acted aggressively by stopping all PADU registrants in Sarawak on the grounds of data security and not wanting their property ownership to be exposed. Dennis explained that only people who have extraordinary wealth that cannot explain their wealth are the only ones who bother to register with PADU. The failure of the people of Sarawak to understand the real issues of carbon trading, cascading dams and PADU. Showing that GPS failed to provide real information to help the people of Sarawak. GPS wants the Sarawak government to get a lot of money but the people remain poor - Dennis Along.

Soleman, Residents of West Kalimantan
*Daughter Deceived into Work in Kuching: Father's Journey from Kalimantan to Rescue*
Soleman is from West Kalimantan, his journey to Kuching, Sarawak, began with a desperate quest to find his missing daughter, Sesilia Putri. His heart heavy with worry, he turned to his friend, Peter John Jaban, for help. 
Soleman's search for his daughter started with a woman named Sendi, whom he had only known from Balai Ringin. Sendi had promised Sesilia a job at a coffee shop or restaurant in Kuching, with a monthly salary of RM1,500, accommodation, and meals provided. However, after arriving in Kuching, Sendi handed Sesilia over to an agent named Roni, who confiscated her passport and phone. 
Sesilia managed to hide another phone and contacted her father, revealing that she was forced to work long hours as a housemaid without pay for three months, as her salary had been taken by the agent. She also expressed fear of working without a permit.
With this information in hand, Soleman bravely made a police report, detailing the deception and exploitation his daughter had faced. He provided crucial information, including the contact numbers of the agents involved, in the hope that the authorities would investigate and take action.
Soleman's determination to save his daughter from this unjust situation led him to Kuching, Sarawak, armed with his police report and a fervent hope for justice.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Activist and Sarawak political analyst
*Unveiling Sarawak's Poverty: The GPS Objection to PADU*
Today, Sarawak's political leaders began protesting the Main Data Base System (PADU) launched by PMX Anwar Ibrahim at the beginning of January 2024. 
According to Sarawak's tourism, creative industries and performing arts minister - Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah - When you register in the integrated system, this means you are exposing yourself. 
The GPS government requested that PADU be reviewed, and changes made. Karim mentioned that the government should respect the privacy of the people and there is no need to develop PADU because there is already ekasih data. Today, an official memo from Sri Aman Residents asking for PADU registration to be stopped in the entire Sri Aman Division went viral on social media. YBs GPS Sarawak in their respective whatsapp groups asked the people not to register with PADU. 
For Iswardy, the real reason GPS objected to PADU was because they did not want Sarawak's real poverty data to be exposed. The latest data in PADU shows that many Sarawakians are registering. Many poor people are registered and many will get government assistance. In terms of "people's welfare" this is good, but GPS leaders are worried that their weaknesses in governing the state of Sarawak all this time will be exposed. With the high revenue and budget, why are there so many poor people in Sarawak? 
Regarding data security, the Sarawak government pioneered several initiatives such as SarawakPay, Kenyalang GoldCad and Ekasih, all these platforms store the data of Sarawak residents. In fact it is operated by a third party/private. Why is data security not an issue? Is it because it is run by the Sarawak state government? 
Iswardy ask the Sarawak government to have the courage to face reality, that the majority of the people of Sarawak are poor and deserve help. Don't interpret everything through political and election perspectives only.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Activist and Sarawak political analyst
*Unveiling Sarawak's Poverty: The GPS Objection to PADU*
Today, Sarawak's political leaders began protesting the Main Data Base System (PADU) launched by PMX Anwar Ibrahim at the beginning of January 2024. 
According to Sarawak's tourism, creative industries and performing arts minister - Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah - When you register in the integrated system, this means you are exposing yourself. 
The GPS government requested that PADU be reviewed, and changes made. Karim mentioned that the government should respect the privacy of the people and there is no need to develop PADU because there is already ekasih data. Today, an official memo from Sri Aman Residents asking for PADU registration to be stopped in the entire Sri Aman Division went viral on social media. YBs GPS Sarawak in their respective whatsapp groups asked the people not to register with PADU. 
For Iswardy, the real reason GPS objected to PADU was because they did not want Sarawak's real poverty data to be exposed. The latest data in PADU shows that many Sarawakians are registering. Many poor people are registered and many will get government assistance. In terms of "people's welfare" this is good, but GPS leaders are worried that their weaknesses in governing the state of Sarawak all this time will be exposed. With the high revenue and budget, why are there so many poor people in Sarawak? 
Regarding data security, the Sarawak government pioneered several initiatives such as SarawakPay, Kenyalang GoldCad and Ekasih, all these platforms store the data of Sarawak residents. In fact it is operated by a third party/private. Why is data security not an issue? Is it because it is run by the Sarawak state government? 
Iswardy ask the Sarawak government to have the courage to face reality, that the majority of the people of Sarawak are poor and deserve help. Don't interpret everything through political and election perspectives only.</description>

Paul Wan from Long Lama
*Decades-Long Issue: Why is Sarawak Spending Money on Container Clinics?*
The Ministry of Health (MoH) has approved RM951,200 to purchase and modify high cube containers for use as an interim clinic in Long Lama, Baram. In a written reply to a question raised by Baram MP Datuk Anyi Ngau in the Parliament recently, MoH said that the project is expected to take at least six months to be completed and will kick off as soon as the process to acquire the site is completed.
This decision comes after longstanding issues with the clinic's facilities, dating back 20 to 30 years. Initially, the clinic was a wooden structure on the riverbank, but it has since fallen into disrepair, with the old site eroded and abandoned.
Paul Wan from Long Lama comment that, despite the need for repairs, the old clinic site has remained untouched. Instead, the clinic was relocated across the river, where only staff quarters were built, leaving the community without a proper clinic. For the past five years, the Long Lama clinic has been operating out of the Long Lama Community Hall, causing inconvenience during events held there.
The Sarawak government has previously expressed self-reliance, yet the lack of action on the clinic issue raises questions. The old clinic, established in the 1960s-80s, should have been upgraded to a hospital, given Long Lama's importance as the central area of Baram. The area relies heavily on the old road, and with the completion of the Sabah/Sarawak link road, Long Lama is set to become a central point between the two states.
However, instead of addressing these pressing needs, the government's focus seems misplaced. There are concerns that the decision to use containers for the clinic is a temporary solution, indicating a lack of long-term planning. Furthermore, plans to build a DAM to control river flow raise suspicions of land grabbing under the guise of development.
Paul emphasize that, The people of Sarawak deserve better, and it is time for action to address these longstanding issues.</itunes:summary>

Ngang Kuja, Residents of Penan Long Tanyit
*Lost Contact for 8 Days Due to Road Broken, Rescued by NGO, Not Government Authorities*
Ngang Kuja reported that today marks 8 days since the Penan people in the Linau River (Murum State Assembly) have lost contact with the outside world - due to landslides, the road to the 5 Penan settlements in the Linau Belaga River is impassable.
 The penan settlements affected are Lusong Laku, Long Kajang, Long Lidem, Long Abit and Long Tanyit. More than 1000 Penan residents live in this area. In this area there is also a school and a health clinic. 
Ngang Kuja was wondering why there is no road repair work by the government. Thankfully today the road can be passed, and it is not from government and YBs, but was repaired by an NGO- ASAP MOTOR. This is a four-wheel drive vehicle club based in Bakun Sungai Asap. 
He said that, the big problem for them penan in linau is the road of communication. The log road they use now is a log road built by Samling. This road has been abandoned because the logs have run out. The Shin Yang logging company operates in the upper reaches of the Linau river, but not through the penan village. 
Ngang appeal to PMX and Premier Abang Johari, most importantly, give them paved roads, electricity supply, clean water and telecommunication. After this everything is there, provide them modern agriculture, clinics and schools. As now they are fully dependent on helicopter services when land roads are impassable. When he spoke to this RFS over 10 times the call was disconnected. In the afternoon - the Sarawak state wifi that they use will have no signal at all.</itunes:summary>

Jeffery Boudi, Spokesman for former SFI employees.
*The situation at SFI is still the same, even worse*
More than 600 employees of Sabah Forest Industry have been laid off following the bankruptcy of SFI approximately 11 months ago. SFI is a subsidiary of the Sabah state government. The last salary received by these workers was in May 2020 when Chief Minister Shafie Apdal was still in power. But since the GRS government led by Hajiji Nor ruled, every complaint from former SFI employees was ignored. 
These former workers were evicted from their residential quarters. The water and electricity supply to the residence was cut off. The situation becomes worse during this month of fasting. We have appealed to the chief minister of Sabah. 
Recently Jeffrery also appealed to PMX Anwar Ibrahim. But until now, he said their pleas have been ignored. In conjunction with the current parliamentary session, they appeal to all YBs from Sabah to speak on their behalf, but only the former Sabah Chief Minister Shafie Apdal is willing to speak up and meet with them. 
Jeffrery Baudi said that, they appeal to the government to be humane and take care of their welfare. Moreover, many of the former SFI employees are old and unable to work anymore. They appeal for humanitarian aid and need free accommodation. 
Our fate is the same as the fate of the Palestinian people - Jeffery Baudi said. Jeffery is asking for help from the public by contacting him at 011-3663 3628. He hopes that an RFS representative will visit and see for himself the condition of this former SFI employee.</itunes:summary>

Nicholas Mujah Ason, Member of the Indigenous Foundation Council (FSC)
*Impact of land measurement sec 6 (people's land converted into government land)*
Today Nicholas Mujah shared a court case involving 7 villages in Sebangan Simunjan. Nicholas Mujah representing the villagers brought the case to court in 2014. In 2005 the residents of 7 villages were shocked when the logging company Hock Tong Hin Sawmil encroached on their land in Sebangan. 
The company was given a logging license by the Sarawak state government. 
In 1956 the government measured the land in the 7 villages using sec 6. The residents assumed that it was their land and would not be disturbed again by any party. Apparently sec 6 only gives the right to use the land but cannot own it - in simple language the land remains Government land. 
Furious with the problem, Mujah sued the Hock Tong Hin Company, the Sarawak Government and the Sarawak forest department. By having strong evidence the people in 7 villages won in the high court, the appeal court and the federal court. By order of the court the residents regained their rights to the land in Sebangan. 
But according to Mujah, the best method of recognizing indigenous land ownership is land measurement sec 18. 
Returning to his duties as a member of the FSC council of indigenous expert-Mujah was given the task of maintaining environmental sustainability. That is, any forest activity must be sustainable, legally valid, environmentally friendly and socially friendly/ not change the composition of the social life of the local community. Any party that is threatened with environmental/forest development in their respective places. 
Can report to me and I will take action as soon as possible. In addition to that, we also instill environmental awareness in the younger generation, through various programs – Mujah said.

Boyce Ngau Anyie, Retired Baram online teacher
*GPS, don't politicize education and don't make education a gimmick to get people's support!*
Boyce contacted the RFS to give his views on SSLR and poor schools in Sarawak. Boyce was impressed and saddened by the report of the secondary school in Tebedu/Serian- Hostel where students live in a very poor and sad condition. With such conditions, how can students study comfortably, Question- Boyce. 
Boyce said, he as a retired teacher, he very sure that there are significant weaknesses. If the report has shown the school is in poor condition, allocations should be channeled immediately, either by the state or federal government. Or the assigned officers are not doing their job. 
GPS is chanting a slogan - that they will give free education to the children of Sarawak by the year 2026. What is free education meant by GPS. Do you give free books and tuition fees at the IPT and IPTS level? 
Boyce suggested that free education be given from primary, secondary to university level. Not just fees and free books. Even school facilities should be modern and clean. The state government that really wants autonomy in the field of education and health- should do the work and collect accurate data from now on. So that there will be no more cases like this in Tebedu - Boyce said. 
Don't politicize education and don't make education a gimmick to get people's support. 
Boyce also informed that the SSLR highway project has reached Baram. The people of Baram are happy with the construction of the road to the interior but still oppose the construction of the dam. 
We are not anti-development. We are against dams that affect our lives and the environment. However for the SSLR project. We ask the government to be transparent and that our land involved is adequately compensated.

Boyce Ngau Anyie, Retired Baram online teacher
*GPS, don't politicize education and don't make education a gimmick to get people's support!*
Boyce contacted the RFS to give his views on SSLR and poor schools in Sarawak. Boyce was impressed and saddened by the report of the secondary school in Tebedu/Serian- Hostel where students live in a very poor and sad condition. With such conditions, how can students study comfortably, Question- Boyce. 
Boyce said, he as a retired teacher, he very sure that there are significant weaknesses. If the report has shown the school is in poor condition, allocations should be channeled immediately, either by the state or federal government. Or the assigned officers are not doing their job.

Gabriel Atong,Resident of Punan Ba, Belaga
*Frustration Mounts as Belaga-Kapit Boat Service Cuts Short, Highlighting Rural Neglect*
Announcements on social media inform that the Boat Express service on the Belaga-Kapit-Belaga route operated by the Bah Manis 2 company will be shortened and will not reach Belaga Town. The service provider apologizes to the affected public. 
According to Gabriel, the decision made by the management is a business decision. As such, they cannot be blamed entirely. But the victims are thousands of residents who need the service to go to Kapit for various business. Kapit is the administrative center for the seventh division of Sarawak. Covering Belaga, Song and Kapit. 
Gabriel said that, the GPS government should be blamed for failing to build roads for the rural residents of Sarawak. Especially to the people of Belaga who always support the GPS candidate during the election. In 2012-2016, a contract to build 10 pure soul roads in jalan jiwa murni was issued and included the Kapit-Belaga area. However, until now the proposed road has not been completed. Two directors of the company were investigated by MACC who profited 800 million from the project. But the investigation in 2018 when PH ruled has not been heard anymore. 
According to Gabriel, hundreds of longhouses/residential settlements in Hulu Rajang Parliament are not connected by road. Although there are 3 mega dams built here. Bakun, Murum and Baleh. Even Premier Abang Johari promised by 2024. The road from Sibu-Kapit-Belaga will be ready. Unfortunately, this is all just a dream.</itunes:summary>

Agnes Dijih, Resident of Selangau.
*Since Taib’s death, People want their illegally confiscated land to be returned!*
Agnes' longhouse is less than an hour's drive, via the pan borneo highway to reach Pasai Siong. 
I have many acquaintances and relatives living in Pasai Siong - Agnes said. 
Agnes was surprised when she was told that Taib Mahmud owned 68 lots of land with a total area of 260 hectares in Pasai Siong. The latest assessment of the property value in the area involved is estimated at RM370,000 per hectare and roughly the value of the land owned by Taib is RM92.2 Million. 
According to Agnes it is not surprising because pasai siong is just next to SIBU airport. TYT Taib in April 2019 asked the land and survey department to reissue the land title deed to him on the grounds that the old land title deed had been lost. We also want to ask, is this an effort to erase the real ownership rights/original owners of the land in the area in question. For Agnes, this is Taib's effort to impoverish the Iban people living in the area. Sooner or later Pasai Siong will be developed. The original inhabitants who own the land will be compensated. But with Taib's ownership of the lands in question. Then they will not be paid anything. 
We in Selangau have never been able to find out the gazette as stated. When asked why TYT Taib in his old age still needs thousands of acres of land. If not to deny the rights of others. The land can increase Taib's wealth. He easily sold to rich Chinese- Said Agnes. We the people of Peladalan - since Taib's death, are waiting to see what the authorities will do about Taib's property. We want our illegally confiscated land to be returned.

James Oli, Spokesperson for the residents of Usahaja Tukau Traditional Village (KTUT), Miri.
*Usahajaya Tukau Village Residents Skeptical of Resettlement Offer Without Official Dialogue*
The residents of KTUT have been facing issues for several years now, as the PARABEBA Sdn.Bhd group has obtained approval from the Sarawak government to develop a commercial project on their village land. 
PARABENA group is owned by Raziah Mahmud, the sister of Taib Mahmud. The village residents were evicted without any compensation, and the government does not recognize their ownership of the village land. The village area is adjacent to the Miri airport and is of high market value. After taking PARABENA to court, the KTUT residents lost the case as they failed to prove their ownership rights over more than 400 acres of land. 
However, after various efforts, the latest development (based on an official memo from the Sarawak Land and Survey Department director dated 14 Feb 2023) states that the Sarawak government has agreed to fund a Relocation Scheme for the KTUT village residents with a budget of RM38.35 million. 
This includes building 106 houses, a community hall site, a SESCo substation site, a surau site, and an open area. The residents generally agree with the government's offer but want it to be done legally through an agreement. 
James is skeptical of this offer as there have been no formal discussions with the authorities. It might also be a trap to hasten the relocation of the residents, as they are excited about the offer of free houses. For now, more than half of the KTUT residents have relocated, and the rest are waiting for further dialogue and clarification from the government and PARABENA. 
"If housing is given for free and compensation is provided for our crops and oil palm plantations, we will agree," says James. James also thanks RFS for allowing the KTUT residents to voice their concerns.

Dennis Along, Human rights and environmental activist
*Urges MACC to Investigate Taib and Family's Assets*
Today Dennis made a statement calling on the public to together with him and other NGO friends make a report to MACC Miri - calling for an investigation into Taib Mahmud's property and assets. According to Dennis, Taib died on 21 Feb 2024 and no one knows who took over or inherited his estate. We are not accusing all of Taib's assets to be from stolen or illegal sources. Therefore, it is important that an investigation be made in order to be able to clarify various issues that have arisen for a long time. Two assets associated with Taib in my area are. 
A piece of land in the name of Abu Bekir Taib in Mulu Tutoh Land District with an area of 4400 hectares and Syarikat Bursa Mulu and Marriot Hotel Mulu on a land area of 300 hectares in the name of Dato Roziah (Taib's sister) and her husband Robert Ganet. If the investigation proves that ownership of these properties was taken illegally. Therefore fines and corresponding payments and their return to the owner should be expedited. The same goes for all of Taib's properties at home and abroad. If the investigation proves that property ownership is illegal in terms of the law. So the property should be returned to the people of Sarawak. According to the document shared by BMF- there are hundreds of companies in and outside the country, Diana Taib and her family have interests. Dennis asked the public to be with him and his friends on 13 March 2024, to make a report at the MACC Miri Office.</itunes:summary>

A piece of land in the name of Abu Bekir Taib in Mulu Tutoh Land District with an area of 4400 hectares and Syarikat Bursa Mulu and Marriot Hotel Mulu on a land area of 300 hectares in the name of Dato Roziah (Taib's sister) and her husband Robert Ganet. If the investigation proves that ownership of these properties was taken illegally. Therefore fines and corresponding payments and their return to the owner should be expedited. The same goes for all of Taib's properties at home and abroad. If the investigation proves that property ownership is illegal in terms of the law. So the property should be returned to the people of Sarawak. According to the document shared by BMF- there are hundreds of companies in and outside the country, Diana Taib and her family have interests. Dennis asked the public to be with him and his friends on 13 March 2024, to make a report at the MACC Miri Office.</description>

Peter Kalang, Chairman of SAVE Rivers Network
*Why appeal for funding to the Federal? Where the logging tax revenue and forest concession trust fund?*
Yb Anyie Ngau's speech in parliament yesterday, appealed to the federal government to provide allocations to the Baram parliamentary constituency to repair and maintain the deteriorating log roads. According to Yb Anyie, in Baram there are 425 long houses connected by 1500 km of road, of that, only 100km of paved roads are graded R1, R2 and R3, While the rest is a log road. 
According to Peter Kalang, The log road in Baram is getting worse and impassable. Of course, log roads are not for public use, when the wood that was cut is used up, then the logging company will stop operations in an area. This doesn't mean we need the loggers to come back. But it is the government's responsibility to build safe road infrastructure for the people of Baram. 
Peter's question is, why only appeal for funding to the federal government? While the state government collects logging tax revenue and in 1985 the Forest Concession Trust Fund was established in Sarawak to collect funds from loggers for the development of the people in the Logged Areas. 
Where does the money go? YBs Sarawak should ask this question in DUN and a clear answer should be given to the people of Sarawak. Money from the forest concession fund should be used to build roads and facilities for people in the interior affected by logging. Until when the appeal requests allocation to maintain the log road. The government should build its own roads for the people. Not giving allocations to improve log roads. 
According to Peter, logging in Sarawak became very aggressive in the 1980s, with the use of heavy machinery, helicopters and chainsaws. The rate of forest loss in Sarawak is the fastest in the world. We have to stop logging. 
he visited Sukadana in Kalimantan, was informed by the staff there - since the center was built, more and more Orangutans come to take refuge in the wildlife park. They expect these Orang Utans to come from Sarawak, whose forests are almost extinct. Wild animals will be traumatized by the roar of logging machines. They will look for a lonely forest as a habitat.</itunes:summary>

Nicholas Mujah Ason, General Secretary SADIA.
*GPS Wants Autonomy for Environmental Control: Responsible for the Logjam Issue?*
In a media statement last March 5, 2024. Sarawak Premier Johari Openg said- Sarawak will have absolute power in relation to the environment when Putrajaya fully returns environmental autonomy to Sarawak. Mujah wondered why Johari said that. Because according to the federal constitution, the first schedule states that the state has full power in relation to land and the environment. This means that all this time the state of Sarawak has full power in relation to the environment. 
Therefore, Mujah denounced and demanded that the Sarawak government take full responsibility for the logjam incident that occurred in the Katibas river on March 2, 2024. 
We strongly condemn the actions of loggers who cut down wood uncontrollably and dump waste into the river. The Sarawak government should be held accountable and environmental criminals should be prosecuted - Mujah said.
Mujah urged local residents to come forward to make a report with photo or video evidence. Mujah who has just been appointed to the Indigenous Foundation Council (FSC) representing Asia, insists- with the new role he is playing. He hoped that all parties would work together to take care of the environment and provide complete and accurate reports related to forest rape in Sarawak. Forest damage in Sarawak is at a serious and alarming level</itunes:summary>

Linggang from Marudi 
*HDC Loan Adds Burden to Borrowers; Contractor's Materials Priced Higher than Market*
The villagers of Rumah Gendang at Sungai Assan Tengah received approval for a RM700,000 loan from the Housing Development Corporation (HDC) for constructing a new longhouse. At a recent ceremony attended by political secretary to Sarawak Premier William Anut and SUPP Dudong branch chairman Wong Ching Yong, plans for the new longhouse were discussed. Wong highlighted the area's vulnerability to floods during the rainy season, emphasizing the need for a new longhouse in a flood-safe location.
In this case, the GPS government should provide assistance to flood victims in stead of let victims get loans to repair their house. However, providing loans is not worthy of grand announcements and wasting resources on ceremonies. Moreover, HDC's unclear operations have led to complaints from many borrowers, including the requirement to purchase materials through contractors at prices several times higher than market rates.
Linggang from Marudi told RFS that, the HDC loan which under GPS, is for equipment for longhouse construction. However, what is disappointing is that the loaned equipment or materials do not match the amount allocated by the government to the people. For example, if the allocation is RM 30,000, the materials provided to the people are only worth RM 10,000. This is a misuse of power by individuals appointed by the government, leading to a misappropriation between government representatives and housing equipment distributors. 
some cases are the contractor deducted 30% from the HDC loan of RM30,000 for each door (RM9,000), leaving RM21,000. With the remaining RM21,000, they were supposed to buy materials through them. However, when borrowers checked the prices in the hardware market, there was a significant difference of up to 30%.
This is not helping people, but rather adding to the burden of borrowers, and the quality of the houses is also being questioned. He requested GPS and the YBs to investigate this matter. The government is requested to appoint monitoring officers to oversee the misuse of aid to the people.</itunes:summary>

*Environmental Disaster Strikes Katibas River: Illegal Logging Suspected*
Lai reported on March 2, 2024 that thousands of tons of waste logs were swept away by the strong current through the Katibas river in Kapit. The incident caused a logjam like what happened in the Baleh river a few years ago. According to Lai, he has no doubt that the incident was caused by illegal logging and could also be due to the plantations carried out by the TA AN group in the upper reaches of the Katibas river. I used to work with the TA AN group in Hulu Katibas and they have palm oil plantations and also a logging license in Hulu Katibas. But I believe more that this incredible amount of wood waste is caused by illegal logging. I believe that NREB is monitoring the farms and logging areas of the TA AN group. It is very likely that they comply with the requirements of the license issued. But these illegal loggers will cut wood unethically and leave a lot of waste. This illegal logging is believed to be the result of cooperation with villagers who are desperate for quick money. Asked why NREB did not succeed in cracking down on illegal logging and arresting these environmental criminals. Lai said, NREB can also be bribed by the parties concerned. They will not be caught because there must be an informant who informed these illegal loggers before the raid.
For Dixon, such incidents should be investigated and the perpetrators should be punished. But he wondered why the GPS minister did not issue a statement, when the incident had happened a few days ago. I suspect they just want to save themselves. Don't want to make negative comments. Afraid of being scolded by their respective bosses. Or the minister and YB GPS have shares with plantation and logging companies - Ask Dixon Anak Naga.

*What is Green Hydrogen? Dennis Ngau didn’t explain to the villagers*
On 29 Feb 2024, the Borneo Post reported that Rumah Panjang Long Bedian will be the first longhouse to use electricity sourced from green hydrogen power - the first in the country. Yb Dennis Ngau, Telang Usan assemblyman stated that the green hydrogen project will be implemented in Long Bedian and this will benefit the people there. 
Green hydrogen is a new energy source capable of producing cheap and clean electricity. That is according to Dennis Ngau. 
However, Urai Wan was surprised by Dennis Ngau's statement. Dennis Ngau is indeed from the village of Long Bedian but he never said anything or gave an explanation to the villagers regarding the green hydrogen project. 
Urai Wan said that, Dennis Ngau should have told them first before speaking to the media. According to Urai Wan, the residents of Long Bedian currently use solar energy and are charged RM100 to RM200 per month based on usage, this project is called Sarawak alternative rural electrification scheme (SARES). 
But still, Urai Wan emphasize that, Denis Ngau must explain to the villagers first. Is green hydrogen really safe and cheap? They don't want the Tutoh Dam to be built. It will drown the village of Long Bedian - Said Urai. I have visited Bakun and the people there are much poorer than before the dam was built. Only 3 acres of land was given by the government for one family and no more after more than 25 years. We are protesting the construction of the Tutoh dam.</itunes:summary>

*What is Green Hydrogen? Dennis Ngau didn’t explain to the villagers*
On 29 Feb 2024, the Borneo Post reported that Rumah Panjang Long Bedian will be the first longhouse to use electricity sourced from green hydrogen power - the first in the country. Yb Dennis Ngau, Telang Usan assemblyman stated that the green hydrogen project will be implemented in Long Bedian and this will benefit the people there.

Nicholas Mujah, Environmental activist from Sri Aman, Sarawak
*Carbon Trading Profits: A New Avenue for Giant Companies in Sarawak*
In short, according to Mujah carbon trading is between one country and another. Countries that preserve forests / don't cut down forests (replace forests with polluting industries) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions will be paid by countries that have exceeded their permitted carbon emission limits. 
Sarawak has passed the Sarawak Land Code (carbon storage) 2022 and the Sarawak Forest Ordinance (forest carbon activity) 2022. While in Sabah, the Sabah Biodiversity Enactment 2020 has been established. 
All this is the preparation of the state government for carbon trading. But the question arises whether the people/indigenous people will be able to benefit from the forest they take care of? 
According to Mujah, looking at the current situation, it is clear that the original forest owners will not benefit. In the law that has been approved, it does not state that the people will be paid with a certain amount of money. 
In the case of Sarawak, the indigenous people cannot claim the forest or land in their village as theirs without a title deed. Therefore, the people of Sarawak should be aware that in order to benefit directly. It is at this time that they should put pressure on the GPS government so that in the law that is passed there should be a stipulation of the return of carbon trading revenue to the people in a certain percentage. The people of Sarawak should be aware and aware of every decision and law passed by the state government. If it is not in favor of the people, then the people should rise up and protest. What can be observed now, according to Mujah, The giant company that owns PL on thousands of hectares of land in Sarawak will once again profit from carbon trading. Once they made a lot of profit from logging and plantation. Is it fair that those who destroy the environment are the ones who are paid because they supposedly preserve the forest?

Boyce Ngau Anyie, Vice Chairman Gerenai Community Right Action Committee (GCRAC)
*Where are the PROFIT of logging all this time, why are they not used to build roads to the interior?*
In conjunction with the current school holidays, Boyce who is a retired teacher brought his family and grandchildren back to Long Selawan village in Ulu Baram. 
What's sad is that many of the log roads have been damaged and are difficult to pass. The 200km journey takes seven hours to reach the village. Residents hire bulldozers to repair the road. The road is a log haulage road by the Samling company. Because Samling has not been operating in this area since a year ago, so the road has been damaged a lot. 
Does this show that the rural population still needs Samling to return to logging? Not at all- said Boyce. This proves the failure of Samling and the government. The government told us that logging would bring progress. What progress have we made? 
In 1985, the Sarawak government established the Forest Concession Area Fund to collect logging revenue to be used for the advancement of communities involved in logging areas. The question is, where will the revenue collected for the past 40 years be spent? Why is there no explanation and financial presentation of this fund and he doesn’t believe GPS will make a difference. 
Logging should be stopped 100% because it has failed to bring progress to the rural population and it is the responsibility of the central and state governments to build roads and progress for the people in the interior. Boyce urge the state government to be transparent about the management of this Fund.

John Brian Anthony, Sarawak political analyst
*Abang Johari Will Plunder Indigenous Customs More Greedily Than Taib*
Journalist Marian Mokhtar wrote in Free Malaysia Today by raising the question - in the absence of Taib Mahmud, will the policy of the Sarawak government led by Johari Openg change and recognize the rights of the indigenous people of Sarawak to land and forests?
John Brian thinks that Taib Mahmud's policy will be continued by Premier Johari Openg and will even be more greedy. According to John Brian, why is that? Because the economic and administrative model founded by Taib brings profit to the government and can control the resistance of the subordinates. The people remain poor and the capitalists who get contracts and projects will donate money to the ruling political party to stay in power. The Fascist economic and administrative model created by Taib is strictly coupled with the exploration of the hydrogen energy industry and carbon trading. This will also take away the forest and land of the indigenous people. 
Asked what is the attitude of the opposition party in Sarawak? The opposition parties should unite and formulate an economic model that is more favorable to the people. The way is to restore the people's rights to land and forests through amendments to Sarawak's land code and give shares to the indigenous population in every land, forest and sea exploration. The companies that have been granted PL must give shares to the people who own land in the area and after the expiry of the PL period. Land and forests should be returned to the original owners. 
John believes that only with a clear explanation of the pro-people economic and administrative model will he be able to convince the people and thus the people will reject GPS in the upcoming elections.

Nicholas Mujah, Secretary-General of SADIA 
*Do not be swayed by Abg Jo's friendliness, emphasizing the importance of political will in restoring indigenous rights*
With Taib gone, the question remains whether Abang Jo will respect native land rights. Nicholas Mujah, Secretary-General of SADIA, believes that Abg Jo can understand the plight of the indigenous people, especially regarding land issues under Tun Taib's rule. However, Mujah emphasizes that without outspoken Dayak voices, Abg Jo's administration may not prioritize changes, including restoring indigenous rights.
Mujah suggests that indigenous people must provide sufficient evidence, especially in cases related to Native Customary Rights (NCR) land claims, to bring to court. He stresses that if landowners are not courageous enough to speak up, their efforts might be in vain. Mujah advises against relying solely on social media and newspapers for exposure, advocating instead for legal action as the most effective approach.
Additionally, Mujah warns against being swayed by Abg Jo's friendliness, emphasizing the importance of political will in restoring indigenous rights. The challenge ahead lies in whether Abg Jo's administration will indeed address these pressing issues now that Taib is no longer in power.</itunes:summary>

Faizal Aziz, Chairman of BERSIH 2.0
*Bersih Rally Demands Reform: Peaceful Gathering Outside Parliament Tomorrow*
BERSIH 2.0 will hold a march to parliament tomorrow in order to remind the government about the reforms they promised must be implemented 100% and without delay. 
Faizal said, Bersih along with other NGOs, demand that the government set a clear timeline and target for the implementation of the reform agenda. They admit that there is a bit of reform but it is very slow, reforms that should be expedited without delay are the Electoral Reforms, especially regarding the appointment of EC chairpersons and EC members so that the appointments are discussed in parliament. EC reports should be transparently presented and debated in parliament. In addition, the issue of separation of powers between the attorney general and the prosecutor is also very urgent and we demand a moratorium on the granting of DNAA by the attorney general to cases of corruption and abuse of power. 
At the same time, the Kuala Lumpur Police chief reminded the public not to participate in parades/gatherings without a permit. However, according to Faizal, such a peaceful assembly does not require a permit. Just a notification to the Police authorities. 
Today Faizal have met and informed the Police that the peaceful assembly will be held tomorrow. For now, 2 PH parliamentarians (YB Hassan Karim and YB Mohammed Taufiq Johari) have agreed to march together. 
Bersih will submit a memorandum to the government and will hold a press conference. Bersih request that all Malaysians come together in a peaceful assembly to urge the government to implement 100% reform without delay.</itunes:summary>

Jeffery Ngui, Chairman of Sarawak MUDA
*The Need for Improved Telecommunications Services in Rural Areas: A Call for Government Action*
On 17 Jan 2024, Sarawak Utilities and Telecommunications Minister, Julaihi Narawi said that Internet access in Sarawak reached 78.8% at the end of last year 2023 and Sarawak is confident that it will reach 100% Internet coverage in 2030. 
Although realistic with the government's target, with close cooperation between the state and federal government, several obstacles caused internet and telecommunication services to be interrupted. Among them are geographical challenges, weather, electricity/battery and satellite outages. Therefore, the TELCO and the government should provide a more systematic reporting system when downtime occurs. 
Currently, there is no responsible party to explain to users why there is a disruption and when the service will be restored. Why are telecommunications services not developed quickly in rural areas? Jeffrery comment that, the reason is that the TELCO is too profit-based. Less populated areas, no TELCO company wants to build telecommunications infrastructure there. 
In this context, according to Jeffery, the government should play a role. The government should certify that telecommunication services are a basic need and should be provided to all citizens regardless of location. The cost of telecommunication services should be given a low price for rural and poor communities. If the cost of building a tower and fiber optic is too expensive, direct internet services from satellite are an option - such as Starlink and Connectme Now. All types of communication technology should be explored to enable rural people to get internet services.</itunes:summary>

TK. Mutang Tuo, Head of Long Iman Penan Village, Mulu.
*Taib failed to bring development to the Penan area*
Today I just heard the news that the former chief minister of Sarawak Taib Mahmud has died - Mutang said. 
Mutang comment that, all parties praised Taib for bringing progress to Sarawak. That may be true for people in the city, but for penans, Taib failed to bring development in their area. In fact, Taib and his cronies, they seized Penan forests and land. 
Mutang felt sad that the river is broken. There is no telephone service in his longhouse in Long Iman. When the RFS spoke him, he is fortunate to be on a hill in his paddy field. In his village, there is 100% no telephone line. Therefore he think Taib has failed to advance penan. 
Penan ask for paved roads, house building projects and rights to NCR land so Penan can move forward. But what the government builds, are Dam. They are not proposing the construction of the Tutoh dam, but this is what GPS and Sarawak Premier Abang Johari want to build. 
Dozens of penan settlements are hoping for roads, clean water supply and electricity. But until now Penan have not been given the project as we requested. It is often mentioned by the government that Penan is the golden child of the government. But why are basic infrastructural facilities not built in Penan area?  - Mutang Tuo asked. 
Others will say that Taib succeeded in bringing development. But for penans, he failed. He failed to bring prosperity in the Penan area.</itunes:summary>

Denis Along, land rights activist from Mulu
*Taib's Achievements and the Ongoing Land Disputes*
Today, Taib has passed away. Denis believes that Taib's achievement of serving the longest tenure as Chief Minister and Governor of Sarawak was truly remarkable, but it discriminated against the Dayaks. Since Taib came to power, the Dayaks have lost their Native Customary Rights (NCR) land. Taib benefited from policies created by his uncle, Tun Abdul Rahman. Their achievements are highly impressive, but the Dayaks have suffered as a result. Taib's contributions to politics have also led to discrimination against the majority in terms of education, job opportunities, development, and more. Both Taib and Tun Rahman have left a tyrannical legacy. Denis feels that discrimination is pervasive in every aspect of life.

*Villagers' 2013 Lawsuit Against TH: Court Date Rescheduled for Tomorrow*
Blockade 3rd Week Update.
This week marks the 3rd week for the residents of 9 longhouses in Ruan, Simunjan to hold a blockade to prevent the company TH- Tabung Haji from taking out palm oil from the Semalatong Farm. Semalatong Farm is a farm cultivated by TH as a result of cooperation with developing NCR land of local residents. However, when the oil palm produced the results, TH refused to hand over the profits of the plantation to the people who own the land. When investigated in detail. Apparently TH cheated the residents by taking their land but included the names of other people (who did not own the land) in the agreement document. Residents have taken the case to court since 2013 and the case has been postponed several times at TH's request.
However - tomorrow (February 21, 2024), at 9.00 am - according to TR. Mini ak Ringkai this case will be tried at the Kuching high court. 
We hope there will be no more delays this time, said TR. Mini ak Ringkai. Lawyer Dominic Ng will represent the residents. On the other hand, on February 28, 2024, TH will sue the residents for holding a blockade. It is understood that TH has obtained a court order to ask residents to lower their blockade. Therefore, the court will hear the arguments of both sides. Although the case will be heard in court, we will continue the blockade - Said Tr. Mini ak Ringkai.</itunes:summary>

----------------------

Prof Wong Chin Huat, Academician and Political Analyst
*Malaysians Should Support and Rally Behind Clare, Because Justice is Universal*
Prof Wong discussed the impact of the 2-year prison sentence on Clare Brown by the Kuala Terengganu Magistrate's court. Of course it puts pressure on Clare but more unfortunately it scares others and makes them afraid to speak up. 
In this case, Clare was trialed by two courts. First the court of public opinion and second of course the civil court that tried Clare. It would be unfair to sentence Clare without a full trial (in absentia) or Clare not being given a chance to defend herself. 
First the case was filed in the high court in Kuala Lumpur then transferred to Terengganu, where the plaintiff got the upper hand. It would be unfair for Clare to be punished for writing a paragraph that really only needs corrective action. The sentence handed down against Clare sparked an international reaction. The court of public opinion began to question what the Madani government was doing. 1MDB offenders and criminals Najib Razak were given a half amnesty and fines were discounted by 76%, but the main informant of the 1MDB scandal was sentenced to 2 years in prison. Like it or not Madani government should act decisively. In the event of an abuse of court process in the Clare Brown case. So strict action should be imposed on the negligent party. Wong Chin Huat is convinced that there is a political motive in the prosecution of Clare. However - Wong asked that Malaysians do not hesitate to support Clare's actions and efforts, even though she is a foreigner. Justice is universal - Said Prof Wong. It doesn't matter if she is a stranger, as long as she is fair and does the right thing. So her action should be supported. Even local Malaysians, if robbing and corruption. So all Malaysians should reject and oppose.

----------------------

Prof Wong Chin Huat, Academician and Political Analyst
*Malaysians Should Support and Rally Behind Clare, Because Justice is Universal*
Prof Wong discussed the impact of the 2-year prison sentence on Clare Brown by the Kuala Terengganu Magistrate's court. Of course it puts pressure on Clare but more unfortunately it scares others and makes them afraid to speak up. 
In this case, Clare was trialed by two courts. First the court of public opinion and second of course the civil court that tried Clare. It would be unfair to sentence Clare without a full trial (in absentia) or Clare not being given a chance to defend herself. 
First the case was filed in the high court in Kuala Lumpur then transferred to Terengganu, where the plaintiff got the upper hand. It would be unfair for Clare to be punished for writing a paragraph that really only needs corrective action. The sentence handed down against Clare sparked an international reaction. The court of public opinion began to question what the Madani government was doing. 1MDB offenders and criminals Najib Razak were given a half amnesty and fines were discounted by 76%, but the main informant of the 1MDB scandal was sentenced to 2 years in prison. Like it or not Madani government should act decisively. In the event of an abuse of court process in the Clare Brown case. So strict action should be imposed on the negligent party. Wong Chin Huat is convinced that there is a political motive in the prosecution of Clare. However - Wong asked that Malaysians do not hesitate to support Clare's actions and efforts, even though she is a foreigner. Justice is universal - Said Prof Wong. It doesn't matter if she is a stranger, as long as she is fair and does the right thing. So her action should be supported. Even local Malaysians, if robbing and corruption. So all Malaysians should reject and oppose.

Ngeow Chow Ying, Lawyer and legal practitioner
*Justice Denied: The Political Persecution of Clare Rewcastle Brown*
Clare Rewcastle Brown (CRB) was sentenced to 2 years in prison by Magistrate Nik Mohd Tarmizie Nik Mohd Shukri after the Kuala Terengganu Magistrate's Court heard and heard the case of Sultanah Terengganu Nur Zahirah's Defamation Suit against CRB. CRB was accused of slandering the Sultanah of Terengganu in his book The Sarawak Report "The Inside Story of 1MDB expose". Is the judgment valid? 
Ngeow thinks there are clear doubts that the trial conducted was unfair. In any court case, those accused should be given space to defend themselves. In this case, CRB was not informed of the charges against her and her lawyer who was in Kuala Lumpur was also not informed. This leads to doubts about the validity of the sentence imposed. 
Of course there is an argument that states that section 425A of the Criminal Procedure Code allows the trial to be conducted in absentia or without the presence of the accused. But according to Ngeow, this section only applies to trials that have started and halfway through the accused has refused to appear in court. This is different from the CRB case that she was not informed from the beginning. Section 425A was only included in the criminal procedure code in 2016 and should not be misused. 
Is there a remedy to correct this error? Ngeow believes that Clare's lawyers have filed an appeal and there is indeed a chance for Clare to defend herself. However Ngeow is convinced that the prosecution of Clare is politically motivated. Since CRB has written a book that opened the eyes of all Malaysians and the world regarding the 1MDB scandal - the world's biggest financial scandal. 
Will Malaysia request that Interpol arrest and extradite CRB so that he can serve his sentence in Malaysia? and will Interpol obey without question to follow the wishes of Malaysian courts? Ngeow said that there is no treaty/cooperation/agreement between Malaysia and the UK regarding extradition. Under the UK extradition act - the person to be extradited must have committed an offense under UK law. If there is no treaty between Malaysia and the UK, then Interpol will not be able to act.</itunes:summary>

------------------------

Tr. Mini Ak Ringkai- Head of Ruan Village, Simunjan.
*Corporate Land Use in NCR Leaves Villagers Empty-Handed After Harvest*
Tr. Mini reported that 9 longhouses held a blockade for the past 2 weeks to prevent the Semalatong Tabung Haji Plantation Company (TH) from taking palm oil out of the plantation. 
About 7 years ago TH opened a palm oil plantation in the area of Kampung Ruan Simunjan (known as Semalatong Farm) with the cooperation of NCR landowners who live in the area. The joint venture was successful with the residents handing over their NCR land and in return they were given shares in the TH company. But after 7 years have passed and after the palm oil has yielded, TH does not share any profit from the farm to the residents. 
Residents felt deceived and staged a blockade and demanded that their NCR land be returned and that TH should pay compensation for the damage to the land and the losses they have suffered over the years, as long as their land was handed over to TH. 
From the beginning, the residents were suspicious of the joint venture but did not know the right way to fight TH. They are asking for a dialogue, but ignored by TH. It is understood that TH has obtained a court order for the eviction of the residents who held the blockade. It is also understood that lawyer Doinic Ng will meet with the residents later this afternoon. 
NCR land development cooperation like what happened in Kampung Ruan is a method that is said to benefit the residents if it is implemented well. The developer was not given a PL as usual but was given a "Development Area". In this case, the residents who own NCR land in those 9 villages own the land. But the other party invited by TH represented them. Further reports will be explained by resident lawyer Dominic Ng.

--------------------

Nick Kelesau- Spokesperson for Penan Keruan Association (Baram).
The fact is Samling threatens Penan to continue logging
Media reports mention that Samling's sustainable timber certificate which was suspended in July 2023 has already been resumed to allow Samling to log in the 117,941 hectares of Revenscout FMU forest. According to the senior general manager of the Sirim QAS international forest management system certification department - MD Adha Rahmat. Samling has made a serious effort to dialogue with the Penan people in the area involved. However according to Nick- what you heard from the report is inaccurate and untrue. What actually happened was the threat against the Penan people. 
"Now that Samling is closed, who will pay the salary and allowance to our village chief?". All this time Samling has been giving salaries and allowances to Penan village leaders. By protesting logging in the Ravenscout area, wages and allowances will be stopped. According to Nick there is a possibility that the audit work is not carried out in an orderly manner. The auditor may only accept reports and forms that have been processed by the assembly itself. Samling's party went to Penan villages with ballot forms. In the end, the decision is certainly in their favor. In general, Penan are completely opposed to logging because it affects life and the environment. But the main cause of our problem is because the state government does not recognize our NCR rights. Samling was used as a tool to rob us. We should be encouraged to take care of the forest so that it remains for future generations. Nick said faintly. The Samling Group was given a logging license in 2 areas, namely- Gerenai starting from 2018 to 2027, with an area of 148,305 ha (Samling Playwood (Miri) SDN.BHD) and Ravenscout Forest with an area of 117,941 ha. (Samling Timber SDN.BHD).

Richard Engan, Social and Political Activist from Baram
*The Importance of Indigenous Rights in Leadership: A Focus on Chief Ministers like Stephen Kalong Ningkan and Tawi Seli*
Richard commented on how Taib Mahmud and Rahman Yakub were able to maintain power for 44 years as Sarawak's chief minister when Melanaus were only 5% of Sarawak's population. And when talking about the administration of Adenan and Abang Johari as Chief Minister of Sarawak (they are both Malays), the total time that the Malays and Melanaus dominated Sarawak politics was 54 years. 
Richard got the First Chief Minister Stephen Kalong Ningkan and the second Chief Minister Tawi Seli too honest and naive in politics. They are also not highly educated but have the principle of defending the rights of Sarawak. This is not liked by UMNO as the government in the federation. UMNO cooperated with Rahman Yakub and Taib to seize the rights of Sarawak in return for Rahman Yakub and Taib remaining in power. The same policy was used during the administration of Adenan and Johari openg until now. The Iban Dayaks in particular are confused, they are said to be part of the government when they have representatives in the PBB (PESAKA) but that is just a mask. 
The Dayaks in the PBB are only given small ranks and positions but the greatest power is held by the Malays and Melanaus. The clearest evidence is that the Malay and Melanau areas are advanced with various facilities while the Dayak areas remain backward. The Dayaks remain poor but the Malays and Melanaus work with capitalists to build dams, logging and oil palm plantations that take away the Dayaks' land. 
Richard asked the Dayak people to realize this fact and stop supporting GPS. Only then can Dayak become Chief Minister again. The real question is not which race becomes the Chief Minister, but the most fair and honest Chief Minister- Said Richard.

N.Surendran, Former PKR Vice President, Former Padang Serai MP, Lawyer and Legal Practitioner
*Investigation under the Sedition Act against Tony Pua- Shameful*
N.Surendran strong comments against the use of the sedition act against Tony Pua are fair and in the public interest. Tony Pua has the right to speak and the right to speak is guaranteed by the federal constitution, so using oppressive laws against the public is a mistake. he direct his criticism towards the Prime Minister and the government because PKR/PH has been the backbone party of the government since 2018 (22 months) and now - after GE15, it has been over a year, there is no clear reform, hardly a reform at all. 
On the other hands what happens Oppressive laws are enforced. PH sold in their campaign that they will do reforms. He don't think there is any reform at all. If you want to list the oppressive laws that are being enforced now, The list will be very long.
In relation to the decision of the Pardon Board that reduced the sentence against Najib. There should be no confusion. At a glance we know that Agung/King should follow the advice given as required by the federal constitution except in the matter of appointing the PM, dissolving parliament and calling a meeting of the council of kings related to the privileges of the kings. The pardon board has advised that Najib serve the full sentence. So the advice should be followed by Agung/King. But that is not the case and it clearly violates the Federal Constitution.
A 2-year prison sentence against the founder of Sarawak Report for allegedly slandering the Sultanate of Terengganu. I cannot comment in detail on the court process that took place. But for a long time we have been fighting to abolish section 500 of the penal code which is an oppressive law that suppresses freedom of expression. Not only Clare Brown, but all Malaysians have the right to speak based on fundamental rights and public interest.- I have left PKR- I want Malaysians to choose a party that really does reforms without delay

Ngang Kuja, Penan residents of Kampung Long Tanyit, Linau River Belaga
*Severe Flooding Strikes Five Penan Villages along Linau/Belaga River: Should the Sarawak Government Construct More Dams?*
Ngang Kuja reported that 5 penan villages have been flooded by the Linau river which has been overflowing with flood water for the past 4 days. The villages involved are Long Abit, Long Kajang, Lusong Laku, Long Lidem and Long Tanyit. 
According to Ngang Kuja, this is an extraordinary flood as far as I know as long as I live in the linau area. We lost everything like rice crops, livestock and houses. The long house of Long Kajang is no longer habitable because it has almost collapsed due to being washed away by the water. When asked if logging is the cause of this extraordinary flood. Probably not, he said- because there is no more active logging in our area. But I expect it is the effect of global climate change. Because the part of Indonesia that borders us is also badly affected by the flood. We are asking for immediate help. The aid sent to us at this time can only cover our lives for 2 days only. It is difficult for us to connect with the outside world because the telephone line is not stable. Long Kajang 25 doors and 38 households. Other longhouses have not been able to identify the number of affected. The government came to send us aid very slowly, using boats and land. But if you use a helicopter it will be faster - said Ngang Kuja.</itunes:summary>

Peter John Jaban, Sarawak Veteran Activist
*Peter believes Police are investigating Raghad for allegedly stealing Taib's property*
Update related to the news of Tun Taib Mahmud being forcibly taken out by his wife Raghad Kudi from Normah Specialist Hospital in Kuching while receiving treatment in the ICU. Several police reports were made and confirmed that it really happened. However, the Sarawak police do not allow the public to speculate about it. 
According to Peter, what happened was a fight over Taib's property. Raghad made preparations to pack hundreds of boxes of Taib's property to be taken abroad, a viral photo shows that. This caused unease among Taib's children. They accused Raghad of stealing their father's property. Depressed by that, Raghad brought Taib home from the hospital's ICU so that he could take a picture with him with the treasures that had been packed in the hundreds of boxes, this will justify that it is not stolen property,it is a gift from Taib. According to Peter again, since 2014, Raghad did not allow Taib's children to meet their father.

The follow-up, at 1.21am this morning, through a post on his Instagram account, Raghad denied the matter and asked to stop the bad suspicions against him. She said, she will not run away from the country and will continue to be in Sarawak - I am indeed a foreigner, but I am a Malaysian citizen - she said. 
Raghad also denied reports that Taib was kidnapped from the hospital. He took Taib out with the nurse's permission. Peter questioned Raghad's statement by asking a question. Who has the authority to discharge patients? Doctor or nurse. With this irresponsible action, Peter urged the Sarawak government to revoke the Malaysian citizenship given to Raghad. The native status owned by Raghad can be misused to increase the amount of wealth, get involved in politics or distribute property to his relatives. Don't be surprised if members of the Raghad family dominate Sarawak's politics or wealth. Said Peter John Jaban.

Pushpan Murugiah, CEO of the Center to combat corruption and cronyism (C4)
*Malaysian Voices Against Pardon: A Plea for Restructuring the System*
Pushpan raised 2 basis points which are Najib does not deserve a pardon and immediate reform of the Malaysian pardon system.
According to Pushpan, Najib does not deserve a pardon because he has been found guilty in a case where he misused his power to gain benefits for himself, his family and the political party he is president of. He got so many advantages that the sentence was shortened to only 6 years and a fine of RM50 million only. Where is the logic? Embezzled RM42 million but was fined RM50 million. Najib will not learn a lesson if he is treated like this. He should have been fined dozens of times the value of the money he embezzled. 
In addition, Pushpan commented that Najib is still facing several criminal cases such as the RM2.27 billion 1 MDB case and the RM1.69 billion tax arrears case from LHDN. Najib should not be pardoned as long as the cases related to him are still being tried in court. He does not deserve mercy. 
Lokman Nor Adam's statement - said the PM and TPM played a role in speeding up Najib's appeal to be heard by the pardon board. Pushpan believes that this is where the immediate reform of the amnesty system should be expedited. There should be no political interference to speed up the disposal of cases by the pardon board. 
From the overall perspective of Malaysians, the people were mistaken. Najib who committed the biggest sin to cause Malaysians to owe RM50 billion gets sympathy and forgiveness. While the world community is still hunting the culprits of the 1MDB scandal, their leader was pardoned. Malaysia missed the opportunity to reset the wrong system due to Najib's pardon. Regardless, the people should not remain silent, said Pushpan.

Iswardy Morni, Political and News Analyst
*Controversial Pardon: Public Outcry Expected as Najib Sees Sentence Reduction*
Iswardy shared the news that has just been published by a nationwide news portal that Najib Razak got a partial pardon. Fined RM50 million and expected to be released in August 2028, 6 years earlier than the actual imprisonment time. 
According to Iswardy, whether we like it or not - Najib still has the influence, finances, position and political power to force such a decision. Malaysia is a country that has practiced the parole system since 2008. Where prisoners who have served one third of their sentence, can apply for parole (incarceration at home) for the remainder of their sentence. This means that Najib only has to wait another 7 months to apply for parole. 
Regarding the effect of political support and the effect on Anwar Ibrahim's PMX administration, It is certain that the general public will be angry with PMX and even more unfortunate, Najib's supporters are also angry - because it seems that the unity government administration is not serious about freeing Najib completely. But according to Iswardy, the government has enough time to regain support from the people in the 16th GE which is expected in 2028.

Dennis Along, Resident of Long Terawan, Mulu.
*Villagers Publicly Oppose Dam Construction, Criticize Lack of Transparency and Question Leaders' Credibility*
The war of words between supporters of dam building and anti-dam is heating up in Tutoh. Wednesday, Mulu assemblyman Gerawat Gala announced to the media that the majority of tribal leaders in Tutoh supported the GPS government's plan to build the Tutoh dam. Gerawat said that the residents agreed because they were aware of the economic benefits and the minimal impact on the environment. On January 30, 2023 - the tribal leaders, led by the area chief Tutoh Benedict Wak said, only a small group opposes the construction of the tutoh dam and they do not represent the voice of the local population, they are not in the village, do not attend meetings and are anti-development.
Dennis explained that they are the largest group representing the people of Tutoh who are against the construction of the Tutoh dam. To date, more than 600 people have signed a petition against the construction of the dam. 
They are often denied the right to attend meetings. The meeting is set on a certain date, but is made at another time. More importantly they are not anti-development. 
Dennis emphasize that, they want clean water, paved roads, electricity, sec 18 land measurement for development. All this was mentioned by GPS in their manifesto during the state elections, and the communities have support. In the manifesto, there is no mention of the government's plan to build a dam. 
Dennis question, is it true that there is support from the tribal leaders who support the construction of the dam? If the name of support dams has revealed, then they also ready to reveal the number of Tutoh residents who oppose the construction of the dam and will send a letter and list to the Premier of Sarawak. 
Dennis said it is important on transparency, and they work with transparence. On the other hand, the Premier of Sarawak, His Excellency, Ministers and tribal leaders are working in the dark and are unprofessional. 
He conclude that building dams does benefit the state government and their crony contractors. But look at what happened in Bakun and Murum. The people there live harder than before. They also pay electricity bills like other Sarawak residents. They are poorer than anyone who don't have hydro dams. Dennis also ask who works at all the hydro stations in Sarawak. Are they local people there?

Simo Sekam- Resident of Kampung Ngigol, Bengoh (In the Puncak Borneo Parliamentary constituency).
*Living Dam-Free: Nyegol's Example on mini hydro, eco-tourism and reforestation - the Possibilities for Other Communities*
In 2007 the Sarawak government made a decision to build the Bengoh dam to supply clean water to the people of Kuching City. In 2010 Bengoh Dam was completed. Some villages were relocated because they were in the project area. But the villagers of Nyegol decided not to move and only moved to higher ground that was not flooded. 
Looking back on a decision made 17 years ago, Simo along with 15 other families do not regret to continue living in the dam area. They now inherit their family's NCR land of more than 5000 hectares. They cultivate a small part of the land by planting rice, fruit orchards, replanting trees and running a homestay. 
Besides that, Simo and his friends since 2 years ago have started planting 10 thousand trees of various species of tropical trees and now there are still 10 thousand more trees that are still in the nursery. Simo said that they get clean water supply from gravity pipes and work on a mini hydro dam with the help of the NGO Light Up Borneo, and the tree planting project in collaboration with SEB.  
This is a very intriguing phenomenon. Initially, the construction of the SEB dam forced several villages to relocate, but now they also recognize and support the village that is reluctant to move, and are involved in a planting project.
Simo said that remembering what happened to them, the government's plan to build the Bengoh dam to supply water to the people of Kuching - has failed. Until now there is no pipe installation from the Bengoh dam to the City Center. They won when they took their case to court in 2014, and they got compensation. 
Simo said that they are grateful to Yb See Che How who helped them a lot. 
“I advise all residents who are victims of the dam not to give up hope. We have to creatively try to stay alive and have rights on our NCR land. ” 
Simo encourage the indigenous communities who facing the same issue, do not give up to protect their land.</itunes:summary>

------------------

Garak Jalong, Head of Long Lawen Village, Belaga
*Challenging Pointless Dam Projects: Mini Hydro's Two-Decade Triumph in Sustainable Energy in Belaga*
As the Village Head, Garak does not agree with the way the GPS state government handles the dam construction project in the state. It is said that the residents of Sg. Belaga agreed that the Melata dam should be built in their area. According to Garak, the state government should not only ask for the approval of village heads or tribal leaders. The consent of the poor or common people is very important. Obviously in the past the construction of the Murum and Bakun dams disturbed the lives of the residents. 
Garak explained that Kampung Long Lawen did not agree to move to the new settlement of Bakun Sungai Asap, because the compensation value is too small, the land is only 3 acres for a family and it is expected that the poor family will not be able to pay the water and electricity bills. 
The residents of Long Lawen moved their settlements (long houses) to higher ground when the bakun dam began to fill with water. In this higher Settlement the residents built a mini hydro Dam with the help of NGO-Green Empowerment from USA. 
From 1999 to 2021, the residents of Long Lawen get electricity from this mini hydro dam, without having to pay electricity bills. In 2022 SEB supplies electricity to Long Lawen for free, in return for the land of Long Lawen residents who were not compensated by SEB- in the construction of the Murum hydroelectric dam. 
Since the construction of the Murum hydro-electric dam more than 10 years ago, most of the NCR land of Long Lawen residents is affected due to the construction of the project. However, until now SEB and the Sarawak government have not paid compensation for the land. An argument ensued when the government said that the valuation of the land was based on sec 6. But the residents insisted that the land was indeed their NCR land which was valid and should be paid using the land price of sec 18. This case has been brought to court. The residents of Long Lawen use the services of Lawyer Abun Sui Anyit. Residents are still waiting for a hearing date. 
Garak said that they still take good care of the mini hydro dam, because if SEB asks us to pay the electricity bill and we can't afford it, they will use the mini hydro dam again.

Voon Lee Shan, President of Bumi Kenyalang Party (PBK)
*Voon Raises Questions on Legitimacy: Is the 8th TYT Appointment Constitutional?*
With the awarding of the letter of appointment by the Agong/King and the swearing-in ceremony of the TYT at the Sarawak state assembly at 3 pm 29 Jan 2024. The issue of the appointment of the 8th TYT Sarawak has been completed. 
But for PBK President - Voon Lee Shan, there are still too many unresolved issues. The question arises whether Tun Taib was fired or resigned? No official announcement from the state Astana in Kuching or Announcement by Istana Negara, no resignation letter submitted. 
Voon said that, before the appointment of the new TYT is made, the old (existing) TYT must resign first. Tun Taib's term of office still remains until Feb 2024, is Tun Taib forced to resign or refuses to resign, even though he is old, infirm and sick. 
Voon also raises another question – Is the appointment of the new TYT through discussion with the Premier of Sarawak? If that is, the Premier of Sarawak should bring the matter up for discussion in the Sarawak state assembly meeting. From the public information we know, that is not the case. 
Voon claims that what is happening now is turning his back on the Sarawak constitution or the appointment of the 8th TYT is unconstitutional. Voon suggested that Sarawak move to a more mature and democratic governance. That is by amending the Sarawak constitution so that the power to appoint Sarawak TYT is no longer given to the Agong/King. 
Second, The appointment of TYT must be through a motion and vote in the Sarawak state assembly. All parties have the right to nominate candidates in the Sarawak state assembly conference. According to Voon, Leo Mogie, Alexander Nanta Linggie and Richard Riout are also eligible to be considered for the post of TYT, apart from other parties who contributed a lot outside the political radar. 
Voon's final assertion is, if the Agong/King is found to be doing something that violates the constitution, he can also be prosecuted in a special court according to article 33(a) of the federal constitution.

Dennis Along, Resident of Long Terawan Long House, Mulu
*Land Deception: Community Leaders and Former Government Officials Turn Advocates Sparking Panic for Illicit Land Acquisition*
Dennis Along and his associates filed a report today with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in Miri regarding the alleged abuse of power and misappropriation of funds by tribal leaders and counselors. The case revolves around the questionable utilization of RM2 million in cash labeled as a "donation" by PUSAKA KTS in 2009 to the residents of Long Terawan and Long Melinau Mulu, with no accompanying financial statements. This donation is connected to the alleged taking of Native Customary Rights (NCR) land from the villagers.
He strongly criticized the community leaders, labeling them as a group of scammers with the victims being the villagers. In 2019, Radian Legon initiated a palm oil plantation on NCR land in Long Terawan and Long Melinau, promising cash assistance of RM400k for each village and RM200k for a water pipe project in Long Terawan. However, no financial statements for these funds have been provided, and as of today, only the pipe has been installed without a water source.
Dennis claimed that irrespective of changes in leadership, from village chiefs to counselors, the modus operandi remains the same, indicating collusion with previous officials. Retired officials, after leaving public service, allegedly join large plantation companies and act as advocates, collaborating with village chiefs to deceive residents into surrendering their land. They allegedly withhold the consequences of section 6 from the villagers, emphasizing that refusal to sign would result in no compensation, using intimidation tactics supported by certain elected representatives (YBs).
Dennis mentioned that despite multiple requests for responses from Baram MP Dennis Ngau and Mulu State Assemblyman Gerawat, they have not been truthful and have even threatened arrests through the media if villagers obstruct land survey activities.
Several villages are currently troubled by land survey issues, with former interior officials allegedly acting as survey advocates, spreading misinformation through WhatsApp groups to create panic.
Dennis urged MACC to thoroughly investigate the matter and vowed to escalate the case to MACC headquarters.

Gereng Jadum, Penan from Metalun resettlement area, Murum`
*GPS, Where Are the Promises? Unraveling the Crisis of Infant Mortality in Murum Penan due Insufficient Medical Facilities*
Gereng confirmed that the road to Penan Lusong Laku Settlement has been cut off and impassable since a week ago. This makes it difficult for the Penan people to move. Because all Penan settlements in Murum and Linau can only be reached through logging roads. There is no paved road to the Penan settlement. 
Gereng was asked to comment on the death of a baby from the Lusong Laku settlement area (Linau) last week. The health department did not have time to save the baby because the road was completely cut off. Bad weather for 2 consecutive days caused the helicopter to be unable to land. 
According to Gereng. The incident of a mother giving birth in the middle of the road (on the way to the Bintulu hospital) is not unusual for the Penan people. 
According to Gereng, last year several such cases occurred. This is due to the settlement of the Penan people far interior, no good road connections and no health clinics in the Penan settlement. 
He urged the government, build a health clinic in their place and build a paved road to their longhouse. If this cannot be built immediately. Give enough expenses to mothers who want to give birth. 
Many outsiders criticize the Penan people for not coming a week or 2 weeks earlier to the hospital before giving birth. But Gereng said, they are the poorest race group in Malaysia. If they don't work every day, they won't eat, They will not be able to come early to the hospital if there is not enough money. To overcome this problem, the penan communities appeal to the government, Give sufficient financial assistance to mothers who go to the hospital for childbirth.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Resident of Long Terawan Long House, Mulu
*Residents Protest Sec 6 Land Measurement Amidst Allegations of Bribery and Misappropriation*
Dennis Along and friends will make a report to MACC Miri at 10 am on 25 January 2024, it is about the case of abuse of power and misappropriation of money by some tribal leaders and counselors in the Mulu area.  
In 2009 PUSAKA KTS donated RM2 million in cash to the villagers of Long Terawan and Long Melinau Mulu, However, there is no financial statement of the use of the money. This RM2 million money was given by PUSAKA KTS because of the taking of NCR land from the residents. 
In 2019, the Radian Legon company opened a palm oil plantation in the NCR land area of the residents of Long Terawan and Long Melinau and announced cash assistance of RM 400k for the residents of Long Terawan, RM400K for the residents of Long Melinau and RM200k for the water pipe project for the residents of Long Terawan. Again, there is no financial statement related to the money. 
This time, the land measurement of the residents of Long Terawan and Melinau also witnessed the same method. Dennis Along believe that community leaders and councilors were also bribed until they agreed to the sec 6 measure. 
Before the dialogue and before the residents agreed to the sec 6 measure, the land and survey department along with the staff of private companies have been in their land area. They are strongly protesting and they don't want their land to be measured under sec 6. 
What can he summarize, he said, more and more power is given to GPS, the more greedy they rob the people's land. Dennis is asking people to come and support him on this Friday.

Voon Lee Shan, President of the Bumi Kenyalang Party PBK
*Sarawak's Call for Constitutional Reform: Ending Malayan Interference*
Viral discussion in Sarawak when the news said that there will be an appointment of TYT to replace Taib Mahmud whose term of office will expire next February. PM Anwar said, the announcement will be made in 2 days. While Premier Johari Openg said, the appointing power of the TYT is the absolute power of the Agong/King. For Voon the statements of the two main leaders are not accurate. First, Taib's successor cannot be announced as long as he does not resign and secondly, the power to appoint TYT should not be the absolute power of the Agong/King. The appointment and proclamation of the TYT should be done in the Sarawak state assembly itself.
According to Voon, the Sarawak constitution should be amended, to enable the appointment of TYT to be made through a name that has been proposed and voted on by a majority in the Sarawak state assembly. If only the Premier proposes (prerogative power) and is installed by the Agong, this means that Sarawak is a state under the Malayan colony. While in the concept of the formation of Malaysia, Sarawak, Sabah and Malaya are equal partners. 
According to Voon again, the time has come for Sarawak to correct and stop Malaya's interference in Sarawak's internal affairs. At the beginning of the formation of Malaysia, Stephen Kalong Ningkan is CM and Jugah is proposed as TYT. This matter was objected by Malaya and they sent a representative of UMNO as a candidate for TYT Sarawak. When many objections, so the compromise step is Kalong Ningkan remains CM but Abang Haji Openg is appointed TYT (Sarawak Malay). This is not an understanding, but this is a political intervention by Malaya at that time. The time has come for Malaya not to interfere in the appointment of Sarawak TYT.</itunes:summary>

*Armed Enforcement in NCR Lands: Tensions Rise in Bintulu as Villagers Resist Land Measurement*
Today an enforcement team armed with M16s entered the NCR area of Rumah Panjang Nura Buling and Rumah Panjang David in Bintulu. They introduced themselves as security enforcers accompanying the land and surveying department, to measure the land of villagers involved in the construction project of the electricity transmission line from Bakun to Samalaju Bintulu. But the residents protested and did not want their land to be measured before any written explanation and dialogue. Residents do not believe that the measure is for a project to build an electricity transmission tower. They believe that the land and survey department wants to confiscate their land to allow the Sebekai Plantation company to increase the area of oil palm plantation next to their longhouse. 
Rebeca explained that the people in the area have been working on their NCR land with oil palm cultivation for a long time and have produced satisfactory results. The question is why the government wants to take the land away from them and give it to a richer plantation company. We do not fight with violence. We just want dialogue, said Rebeca Bana. 
According to residents, this is not the first time such an incident has occurred. It has happened several times in the past. But can be stopped by longhouse residents. According to Mrs. Rebeca again. Today, along with the armed enforcement. Someone introduced himself as "Dato" from the Sarawak Premier's office - Abang Johari.

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst from Sarawa
*Malaysian Power Players Face Accountability: Anwar Ibrahim's Bold Move*
According to Iswardy, the PMX-led government is at risk of being overthrown for investigating "untouchable persons". Currently the government led by Anwar is investigating Daim, his wife and 2 children, related to the Za Star Trust with a wealth value of RM244 million in the Cayman Islands. Tun Mahathir Mirzan's son was also investigated with the wealth collected in the BVI. Muhyiddin and his son-in-law were investigated in the JanaWibawa case and most recently former PM Ismail Sabri was also investigated in relation to funds promoting "Malaysian Family". Najib's case is still long and in trial. The former PMs 4,5,6,7,8 and 9 are being investigated. 
The risk according to Iswardy, these figures have followers and wealth. They have skillfully hidden their wealth and they are the ones who created the system that allowed them to be rich and powerful. They can spend RM750 or more to buy MPs to support them or sponsor candidates or political parties in elections. Actually this value is too small for them compared to the amount of wealth they stole.
But in order to reform, PMX Anwar Ibrahim dared to do this even though he was aware that his actions would have a bad effect on the government. Asked if this investigation was ordered by Anwar? Directly or indirectly. Anwar detects/suspects irregularities, it is the duty of the authorities to investigate. Previously - if known by the previous Prime Minister. They are afraid to act because they love position and power. Iswardy called on Malaysians to support the PMX administration. However according to Iswardy. Not all rich people in Malaysia are under investigate. Ananda Krisnan, Syed Moktar and many others who have extraordinary wealth. Don't feel intimidated by PMX administration.</itunes:summary>

*Bumpy Roads, Silent GPS Gov and Timber Giants:  Sarawak's Interior Villagers Bear the Burden of Repairs*
A video lasting almost 3 minutes went viral today. Showing a bulldozer repairing the red dirt road leading to Hulu Tinjar. According to the background voice of the video, The people of Tinjar are so disappointed with the administration of Sarawak Premier Johari Openg who uses state revenue for his own benefit and his cronies. 
According to Robertson, what the video shows is a normal situation for Tinjar residents. Many longhouses spent their own money to improve the road because the GPS government's promise to improve the log road to their village was not fulfilled. 
He said that, the road leading to his long house was impassable after being hit by floods a week ago. The background voice from the video urges the people to choose wisely in the upcoming elections.
Asan Banta also shares the road situation in Ulu Tinjar. 
He said that the road to his house is a log road, only four-wheel drive vehicles can pass through the rickshaw and muddy road. They have repeatedly requested to be given a paved road, Until YB even came and saw the bad condition of the road that the villagers pass every day, but so far no action has been taken. 
What is more difficult for them is that their agricultural products and palm fruits cannot be marketed because of the badly damaged roads. Even more unfortunate according to Asan, the road that has been paved starting from Lapok town is also badly damaged because everyday Shin Yang log trucks pass through it. 
He suggest that the main roads to the longhouses must be paved for the convenience of the residents. Last week, Baram residents from Long Bemang had to collect a Toll of RM30 for each car passing through the Long Bemang log road. The money collected was used to hire a bulldozer to repair the road. 
RFS urged ppl who facing same problem, please contact 60 13-551 5219

*Penan Protest: Calls to Revoke Samling's Logging License Renewal*
MTCC's action of approving logging licenses to Samling in the Penan area of Long Gita, Long Tevega, Ba Nyakit, Long Adang, Ba Beresek and Long Daun, this is very surprising. Although such a license was canceled last July 2023. My question to MTCC, has Samling met all the conditions required by the government?. Nick asked. The Penan people in the 6 areas involved in Ulu Limbang wrote a letter to MTCC asking that the logging license to Samling be canceled because Samling did not consult or dialogue with them. FPIC is not implemented. We ask SIRIM to withdraw the license that has been granted. Until now there is no dialogue with the local population in the area. According to Nick again, what Samling did was. After learning that their license was revoked in July 2023. They approached several Penan groups in the area and built houses for them and promised jobs and help. It is possible that the statement of agreement from this small group was reported to the MTCC to allow the license to Samling to be approved. Nick urged MTCC, SIRIM and other authorities, to go down to the ground and hear for themselves what happened. Disappointed with what happened, the Penan people in the 6 areas involved requested that the logging ban zone be declared first before a license is issued to Samling.</itunes:summary>

Richard Engan, Resident of Long Terawan, Mulu
*Dual Challenges in Long Terawan: Fighting Land Survey and Rejecting Tutoh Dam*
Richard is sad because, despite protesting and making a police report, Sec 6 land survey is still done in Long Terawan village. The Sarawak Government's reason is because there are residents who agree and are approved by the village head. Even though Kampung Long Terawan has 98 families, only 20 percent of the population lives in villages. So they are easily manipulated, they don't even know what the effect of land measurement sec 6 is. Also the dialogue notice in the village is too short and the villagers who live far away can't/have time to return to the village after the holidays during the Christmas season. 
In relation to the Sarawak Premier's claim that the residents of Sungai Tutoh (located in the Mulu area) agreed for a hydro dam to be built, this is a lie- said Richard. In a massive meeting for 2 days in the village, before Christmas last year, the question of building a dam was not discussed at all. How the Premier said the residents agree?
He said they protested the construction of the dam after seeing the lives of the communities in Bakun, Batang Ai and Murum. After the hydro dam was built and they were moved to a new area. Their life is more difficult than in the old place. Murum for example, there is no road to their village yet, and no clinics or schools, so what is the rationale for continuing to build dams if the people and the environment become victims. The only ones who benefit are private companies, the Sarawak government and their cronies. 
We in Tutoh will protest and defend our land from being invaded by the dam – Richard said.</itunes:summary>

We in Tutoh will protest and defend our land from being invaded by the dam – Richard said.</description>

Celine Lim, Managing Director of Save Rivers
*Sarawak Premier Abang Jo Silent as Residents Against Unwanted Dam Projects In Sarawak*
Today Save Rivers held a meeting with residents from Tutoh, Apoh and Mulu areas. Residents in this area will be affected if the government's plan to build a cascading dam in Tutoh is implemented. They expressed their dismay at Sarawak Premier Abang Johari Openg's statement, who claimed that the residents of the Tutoh, Gaat and Belaga river areas agreed for a mega hydro dam to be built in their area. They questioned who met and agreed to the proposal?
As a community that lives in villages and longhouses, there has not been any discussion with them regarding the proposal to build a hydro dam in Tutoh. They sent a letter to the Premier in November 2023 asking the question and stating their objection. But until now the Premier of Sarawak has not responded to our letter.
According to Celine Lim, residents from Mulu, Tutoh and Apoh have launched a protest petition since last September 2023 and there have been over 500 signatures of residents protesting the GPS government's plan to build a hydro dam. 
She said that the communities know the environmental damage and social impact on them if dams are built. They are protesting and want the construction of the dam in their place to be cancelled. They do not believe building dams is an effective measure to control the crocodile population.</itunes:summary>

Ebau Emang, Residents of Long Bemang Baram
*Baram's Log Roads in Disrepair: Toll Collection Highlights Government Inaction*
Today, RFS received information from a resident of Baram who refused to be named. Stating that residents around Long Bemang started collecting a RM30 toll for every car passing through the log road around the village. According to him the matter was done to collect as much money as possible to repair the damaged road (log road) around their village. 
RFS spoke to Ebau Emang who confirmed that the log road leading to Long Bemang was badly damaged. In particular the part of the Interhill logging concession that they have abandoned due to running out of logs. According to Emang again, many log roads in Baram were damaged and abandoned by logging companies that closed their operations because the area had run out of logs. Meanwhile, the GPS government did nothing. 
Last March 2023, Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said that a large allocation was given to upgrade the log roads around Baram, Limbang and Belaga, the entire route is 578 km long. And the repair and upgrade work must be completed before December 25, 2023. But according to Emang, there are only minor repair works. Making the log roads to villages and longhouses in Baram very dangerous to travel at this time.

\Dennis Along- Activist from Long Terawan, Mulu.
*Gerawat's Legal Threats vs. Dennis's Villager Allegations on NCR Lands*
A few days ago, Dennis and his community villagers made a police report and complained to the Marudi District office that a group of people from the land and survey department (JTS) had come to the village of Long Terawan to measure the residents' land with sec 6. Dennis and the villagers did not agree on the land they are measured in sec 6 because their NCR land will be changed ownership to government land.
Today Mulu assemblyman, Gerawat Gala responded and criticized what Dennis and his community villagers did. According to Gerawat, the sec 6 land survey was conducted throughout Sarawak at the request of the residents, as well as in Long Terawan. Gerawat said, according to the definition of the Sarawak NCR Land Code, all lands explored before 1957 are NCR. Explored after 1957 without a letter of permission from the District Office - is Sarawak government land. The land measured by sec 6 will not be taken as state land. The proof is according to Gerawat, the land of the residents of Long Panai was measured with sec 18, after being measured with sec 6. The argument that the measure of sec 6 is an attempt by the government to seize the people's land is false. Gerawat also claimed that the majority of Long Terawan residents agreed with the measure of sec6 and finally Gerawat objected. Anyone who prevents government officials from carrying out their duties can be reported to the police and prosecuted.
Dennis questions the understanding of lawyers like Gerawat towards NCR, How can Gerawat and GPS deny the rights of Sarawakians to the land inherited by their families for generations, with only numbers and dates before and after 1957. Why Gerawat and GPS do not provide adequate provisions to measure the land of the people using sec 18 and give individual land title deed. 
In 2022, Sarawak state income are RM11.9 billion and in 2023 it will increase to RM13.1 billion, why is there no NCR land measurement allocation and additional JTS staff? Gerawat complained that he will make a police report and will prosecute anyone who obstructs the land measurement of sec 6. According to Dennis, they found that the majority of the villagers did not agree and they found that there were employees of a private company (Geometric)in their land area. This means they are intruders. 
Dennis challenged Gerawat to debate on the Land issue - because Gerawat's understanding is far different from the wishes of the majority of the people. Gerawat is campaigning with a manifesto- Effective solution to NCR problem in 2021. Dennis is ready to face Gerawat for the next state election, If given the chance.</itunes:summary>

Dr. John Brian, Dayak Activist and Political Analyst
*Bintulu Port handed over to Sarawak Gov, means GPS has a new financial source to enrich cronies*
John Brian was the former Chairman of Bintulu Port when PH ruled in 2018. Yesterday the newspaper reported that Bintulu Port will be handed over to the Sarawak state government effective June 2024. According to John - this is good news. According to him, Bintulu Port (BP) is the richest port authority in Malaysia. Has a cash reserve of RM 2 billion and handles trade worth RM800 million a year. BP was established in 1981 and was funded by the federal government at a cost of RM500 million. The main businesses are LNG, ABF and Shell MDS. In addition to handling the export of palm oil and logs, chemicals, oil, gas and container ships. The state government holds a 17% interest in BP. With his submission to the Sarawak government next June. So Sarawak has 100% power, there will be an increase in revenue for Sarawak and this strategic holding makes BP the strategic location of the most important Deep Sea port on the island of Borneo. BP's distance is only 700 km from the archipelago and Indonesia does not have a deep sea port on the island of Borneo and neither does Sabah. BP sailing distance from China is only 48 hours. With all these advantages, Sarawak- will get a decent result. The result of GPS's collaboration with PMX Leader Anwar Ibrahim's government. But the large amount of revenue will not necessarily be returned to the people. It was reported that Sarawak Premier Abang Johari's cronies have been appointed as the chairman of BP and Bintulu Port Holding respectively. This means GPS has a new financial source to enrich cronies.</itunes:summary>

*Najib's Lawsuit on "Man on The Run" on Clare and Tommy Thomas : A Potential Embarrassment in the UK Court*
The documentary film Man On The Run has been shown on the NETFLIX streaming since 5 January 2024. The film tells the story of the role of the former Malaysian prime minister - Najib Razak and his accomplice Jho Lo in misappropriating 1MDB funds for personal gain. Najib was found guilty of 7 charges of corruption, money laundering and embezzlement of RM42 million SRC international funds and was sentenced to 12 years in prison and fined RM210 million. 
Najib's lawyer requested that the film be stopped because it is subjudicial to the trial he is currently facing. 
According to Iswardy- it is up to the court to determine whether this film can cause subjudice or not. But look at the country's judicial system which consists of 3 or 5 judges who judge the trial. Judges are not easily influenced. Compared to trials in UK courts which use a jury system. It will have a different impact. But according to Iswardy, another important question is, is the NETFLIX server located in Malaysia or abroad. If in Malaysia, it is relatively easy for the court to give instructions/orders. But if abroad, it will involve a long process and not necessarily successful. 
Regarding Najib's arrogance, he wants to sue Tommy Thomas and Clare Brown. Looks like Najib will have to go to UK court, if he dares face Clare. But if what Clare and Tommy say is true. So it is most likely that Najib will lose and be embarrassed. 
Watching the film Man on The Run - according to Iswardy made you realize that Malaysia has been mired in corruption for a long time. Najib is just a prime minister who does not fight corruption and only continues it. Through this movie everything is explained clearly and simply. But PMX Anwar Ibrahim is the strongest person against corruption. First day as PM. He exposed himself by declaring that corruption is the number one enemy of the country and that he has declared his wealth and does not want to receive a salary. Yesterday the Anwar administration introduced a new format for property declaration. Anwar with the entire government machinery is trying to restore the glory of national administration and asking Malaysians to fight corruption together.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Activist from Long Terawan Mulu, Sarawak.
*Land Invasions and Park Expansion: Mulu's Battle for Survival*
Today Dennis and his villagers drove more than four hours to the Marudi District Office to meet the Marudi District Officer to protest against the land department's encroachment and survey of their land. They received a notice from the Land and Survey Department that the land survey in Long Terawan village will be done under section 6 and a dialogue related to the matter will be held on 10 January 2024 in Long Terawan village. Even before the dialogue was held, the Land and Survey Department started the land measurement work under section 6 today without the consent of the villagers. This is a fraud and an invasion. We have made a police report regarding this matter.
The second thing we object to is the increase in the area of Mulu National Park and the name of Mulu National Park being changed to Tutoh Apoh National Park. We object to the addition of the area and Tutoh Apoh's name. Tutoh Apoh is an area far from Mulu. Second, increasing the area of mulu national park is a way of confiscating our land. The SFC will also introduce/enforce the TPA- Total Ptotaction Area law. Where the original people will be driven out of the area. Agricultural activities, taking forest products and hunting are prohibited. We should be the ones who are appointed to look after the forest in MULU because we Orang Asal are the most skilled forest keepers. We will meet the SFC in Miri tomorrow to express our objection. In 2018 we fought with Radian Legoon for land in Mulu. Three years we fought and we won. Now the SFC and the GPS Sarawak government are happy to designate the area as a National Park. We protested and asked for it to be cancelled</itunes:summary>

Jeffrey Ngui, Chairman of Muda Sarawak
*Desperate Cry: Interior Infant's Tragic Death Exposes Neglect in Wealthy Sarawak*
Muda Sarawak has consistently been in contact with the Penan Baram community. Recently, he received a distress call reporting the tragic death of a 7-month-old baby en route to Miri Hospital via helicopter. As the baby did not pass away at the hospital, the family had to return to the interior clinic to obtain a death certificate. However, they couldn't afford the transportation cost, and the process of handling the death certificate was complicated due to the baby's mother lacking a Malaysian identity card.
Jeffrey mentioned that this incident involved the Penan community from Long Jekitan. Reportedly, the infant sought medical attention at an interior clinic for a persistent stomachache, but as the clinic lacked specialized doctors, the baby's condition worsened. On January 1st, the clinic arranged for an emergency helicopter transfer to Miri Hospital. Unfortunately, the baby passed away during the journey.
According to Jeffrey, the journey from Long Jekitan to Miri by car takes 8 hours, and due to the critical condition of the baby, the clinic arranged for a helicopter. However, the baby did not survive despite these efforts. Since the death did not occur in the hospital, the institution claimed they couldn't issue a death certificate, necessitating the family to return to the interior clinic. Faced with financial constraints, the family sought assistance from Muda Sarawak.
Jeffrey stated that the deceased baby remained in the hospital's mortuary for three days until the support from NGOs and Miri MP allowed the family to return to the interior clinic and arrange for the baby's burial.
He expressed dissatisfaction, pointing out that despite Sarawak having billions in revenue and funds, the condition of interior roads and healthcare remains poor. Jeffrey emphasized that there might be excuses for the time required to build interior roads due to the terrain, but clinics should have adequate services and facilities with professional doctors. He questioned why, in this age of AI, while the world talks about renewable energy, there are still people in the interior areas lacking education, unaware of their healthcare rights, and facing citizenship issues. He asked, "How many lives must we sacrifice?"
Jeffrey strongly urged the Sarawak government to prioritize human lives, not just enjoy superficial achievements (flagpoles), and ensure equal citizenship rights for people, regardless of whether they are from the city or interior. After decades, it's enough. Help them and save them!

Special Randau
*Environmental Concerns: Sarawak's Forests Sacrificed for Tall Towers*
The GPS administration becoming more efficient and positive, as depicted by YB Baru Bian, is untrue. Instead, GPS seems to be increasingly evading responsibility for advocating for the poor residents of Sarawak. Despite the revenue of RM13.1 billion in 2023, there is no clear effort by the state government to assist the impoverished population. Instead, they are using billions to construct the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) and a 99-meter flagpole named "Tiang Ibu Pertiwi." The Sarawak government continues to proudly destroy forests and cut down trees.
In 2020, a team of researchers from the University of Nottingham and Oxford discovered a Yellow Meranti tree measuring 100.8 meters in height in the forests of Sabah. It is not implausible that similar or even taller trees could be found in the forests of Sarawak. However, the state government persists in its policy of logging trees and constructing tall towers without regard for the invaluable treasures within Sarawak's forests. Could it be possible that the forests of Sarawak harbor the tallest tropical trees in the world?</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Activist and Political Analyst
*Monopolies and Oligopolies: Unraveling the Causes of Sarawak's High Inflation*
Minority leaders in the interior of Sarawak complained that the prices of goods and the cost of living in Sarawak were still high and the prices of food items had reached unprecedented levels. Iswardy admitted that this really happened in Sarawak. Although in general Malaysian inflation is decreasing. But inflation in the state of Sarawak is still high, Second highest in Malaysia. 
This happens because many industries in Sarawak are monopolized or oligopoly by small groups controlled by politicians or tycoons. The Premier of Sarawak is proud of the state's income in 2023 with a total revenue of RM13.1 billion. Is there a small amount allocated by the GPS government to cover the increase in the cost of living and the soaring prices of goods. The people should hold the GPS government accountable.

Regarding the merger of PSB and PDP. The PSB is expected to be dissolved before the Chinese New Year 2024. According to Iswardy, the existence of the PSB is indeed to break the opposition vote and make it easier for the GPS to win in the state election. Once the GPS wins, now PSB wants to return to the state government. Iswardy's message - the people should be smarter than the leaders of political parties such as PSB and GPS. The results of the last state election, with the sneaky role of PSB. GPS-76, PKR-0, DAP-2, and PSB-4.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Activist and Political Analyst
*Monopolies and Oligopolies: Unraveling the Causes of Sarawak's High Inflation*
Minority leaders in the interior of Sarawak complained that the prices of goods and the cost of living in Sarawak were still high and the prices of food items had reached unprecedented levels. Iswardy admitted that this really happened in Sarawak. Although in general Malaysian inflation is decreasing. But inflation in the state of Sarawak is still high, Second highest in Malaysia. 
This happens because many industries in Sarawak are monopolized or oligopoly by small groups controlled by politicians or tycoons. The Premier of Sarawak is proud of the state's income in 2023 with a total revenue of RM13.1 billion. Is there a small amount allocated by the GPS government to cover the increase in the cost of living and the soaring prices of goods. The people should hold the GPS government accountable. Sarawak is said to be a high-income state, but at the same time the number of poor people is also large. 
Regarding the merger of PSB and PDP. The PSB is expected to be dissolved before the Chinese New Year 2024.

Voon Lee Shan, President of Bumi Kenyalang Party (PBK)
*"Dubai Move" gives GPS an open opportunity to accept the offer or reject it*
Today, deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi confirmed that he had received intelligence that the "Dubai Move" was carefully planned by a group of PN leaders and government parliamentarians to topple Anwar Ibtahim as prime minister. According to Voon, the information he received, Abang Johari (Premier of Sarawak) was offered the position of PM of Malaysia. Voon thinks that GPS should support Dubai Move and take the opportunity to be appointed to the position of prime minister in order to take back the rights of Sabah/Sarawak that have been usurped by Malaya - especially in relation to oil, gas and the continental shelf and another is that it gives Sarawak an opportunity to reassess its position in Federation of Malaysia. 
Asked if that will once again cause political instability in Malaysia. Voon thinks "Dubai Move" gives GPS an open opportunity to accept the offer or reject it. If GPS rejects the offer and agrees to continue supporting PM Anwar Ibrahim. This also gives more space to GPS to demand more from Anwar. The current situation is so much in favor of GPS and it is up to GPS to take advantage of the current situation for the benefit of Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

*Worry and Reality: the Impact of False Diesel Subsidy Cancellation News on Rural Residents*
A notice went viral on social media stating that the diesel subsidy will be removed effective January 1, 2024. However, the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living - quickly denied that the news was true and informed that the ministry is conducting a pilot project to see the effectiveness of the fleet system card and Mysubsidi Diesel system. Involving 6 companies that received quotas for "skid tanks" that will expire on January 14 next. Even if it's fake news, it still worries us rural residents. Moreover, we are diesel users - Dominic Langat said. The majority of poor people in the interior use 4-wheel drive cars. Not because we are rich. But only this vehicle is able to move on rickshaw and muddy roads (log roads) in the interior. Our one-way trip to the village took 8 hours and a round trip would take over 16 hours. Therefore, the consumption of diesel for my car per month averages RM700. I am worried if the targeted subsidy that will be implemented next year does not provide as much subsidy as expected. Maybe the government thinks why poor people need to use a lot of diesel. The reason is, our village is far away. The distance between the garden and the place where we go hunting is deep in the forest. Therefore, I hope that the government will consider these factors when approving the amount of diesel subsidies that will be given to us

*Energy Transition Challenges: Advocating Ministerial Transparency and Community Involvement*
In the recent cabinet reshuffle, the Ministry of Environment underwent a transformation, being split into the Ministry of Energy Transition and Public Utilities, and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Sustainable Development. Deputy Prime Minister Fadhilah simultaneously assumed the role of Minister of Energy Transition and Public Utilities. Barnie Lasimbang expressed that the addition of the Ministry of Energy Transition and Public Utilities by the government reflects a heightened focus on energy transition, and there are expectations regarding the achievements this department will make in areas such as dams and solar energy.
However, he also voiced concerns about Fadillah Yusof's appointment as the leader of this ministry. He pointed out that Fadillah Yusof hails from Sarawak's GPS, and the current GPS state government appears to be actively promoting projects such as carbon trading and the construction of giant dams. However, a critical issue arises when these projects lack transparency, potentially leading to significant environmental damage and adverse impacts on the land rights of indigenous communities.
Barnie Lasimbang urged Fadillah Yusof to engage more actively in dialogue and communication, to listen attentively to the opinions of the communities, and to conduct more effective communication. Simultaneously, he called on the government to allocate funds to non-governmental organizations and the general public to collectively promote green energy, enabling broader societal participation in the pursuit of sustainable development goals. He believes that only sustained pressure from the people can prompt the government to act swiftly and fulfill its commitments.</itunes:summary>

*Clear Constitutional Provisions: Non-Bumiputera, Non-Muslims Qualified for PM, CM, and Governor in Sarawak*
The police confirmed the investigation into Lim Kit Siang following a blog post on Nov 30 that touched on the issue of the appointment of the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Lim, when speaking in front of Malaysian students in the UK, said that the future Prime Minister of Malaysia may be a non-Malay. According to Baru Bian, the police should not investigate Lim Kit Siang. Because what Lim said is clearly not illegal or against the federal constitution. The pressure and investigation against Lim should stop. According to Baru Bian- the Constitution does not limit the Prime Minister of Malaysia to only Malays or Muslims. Anyone can become prime minister, as long as he is a member of parliament, has the trust of the majority of members of parliament and is approved by the Yang-Di-Pertuan Agong. There is no reason why the police should investigate Lim, clearly Lim did not break the Law. Even according to Baru Bian. In Sarawak - the Sarawak constitution also does not prevent non-Malays or non-Muslims from becoming the Premier of Sarawak. This also includes the position of TYT/Governor of Sarawak. Therefore, the police investigation against Lim should be stopped.

*Leadership Strategies: Anwar vs. Muhyiddin's Approach to Cabinet Expansion*
Iswardy described the cabinet reshuffle by PMX today to streamline the administration to face another 4 years of administration before the next general election. Although there was an increase in the number of ministers from 55 to 60. It was still less than 70 during the administration of Muhyiddin Yassin. PAS information chief criticized Anwar by saying. When he downsized the cabinet, he said thrift. When he enlarged the cabinet, he said the government was concerned. He is always right- said Fadhli Shaari, According to Iswardy. The difference between Anwar's administration and Muhyiddin's are Muhyiddin increased the size of the cabinet to get support. Anwar increased the size of the cabinet to tidy up the government's administration. 
In relation to the order of the Sultan of Johor Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar wants more responsibility to be given to the Yang Di-pertuan Agong - including direct monitoring of MACC and Petronas. The future intention of the Agong is good, he wants to help and fight corruption. But that is not his job according to the constitution. Also it is important to maintain separation of powers and avoid centralization of power. The best suggestion is for MACC to report to the cabinet.

*Leadership Strategies: Anwar vs. Muhyiddin's Approach to Cabinet Expansion*
Iswardy described the cabinet reshuffle by PMX today to streamline the administration to face another 4 years of administration before the next general election. Although there was an increase in the number of ministers from 55 to 60. It was still less than 70 during the administration of Muhyiddin Yassin. PAS information chief criticized Anwar by saying. When he downsized the cabinet, he said thrift. When he enlarged the cabinet, he said the government was concerned. He is always right- said Fadhli Shaari, According to Iswardy.

Zunar, Political Cartoonist
*Voicing Freedom: Zunar's Stand Against Repressive Laws and Actions*
Zunar was on his way to a cartoon drawing workshop at La Promenade Mall in Kuching, Sarawak, when he was detained by Sarawak immigration at the entrance gate of Kuching Airport on December 8, 2023. He shared with RFS that he was not informed why he was detained or why his name was on the blacklist for entry into Sarawak. Despite his willingness to address any shortcomings if informed, he was not given any reason for the detention. After three hours, he was eventually allowed to enter with a three-day authorization pass. Zunar expressed hope for a government administration, including GPS, that avoids imposing restrictions without clear reasons.
Zunar expressed satisfaction with Anwar Ibrahim's PMX administration, praising Anwar's efforts to restore the country's economy and maintain a clean, corruption-free, and stable political environment. Within a year, Malaysia saw an influx of foreign direct investments under Anwar's leadership.
However, when questioned about the administration's failure to repeal the Sedition Act of 1984 and specific incidents such as the imprisonment of an individual waving the Israeli flag and the charges against a Cambodian citizen for making critical remarks about lazy Malays, Zunar voiced dissatisfaction. He disagreed with the imprisonment of Cambodian citizens for criticizing lazy Malays, emphasizing the right to express disagreement. Similarly, he opposed the imprisonment of individuals waving the Israeli flag, asserting the importance of freedom of expression. Zunar also disagreed with the retention of the Sedition Act, citing its weaknesses and potential for manipulation. He suggested that if a specific act is needed to protect the king from insults, the government should enact a dedicated law rather than maintaining the Sedition Act. While acknowledging that these incidents may not be directly under PMX Anwar Ibrahim's direction, Zunar argued that, as prime minister, Anwar should take responsibility.

YB Violet Yong, Assembly member of Pending
*Concerns Arise as Petros Niaga Gains Monopoly Power in Sarawak's LPG Gas Distribution*
Many problems will arise when Petros Niaga becomes the sole distributor of LPG Gas in Sarawak. Through the Gas Distribution (Amendment) Bill 2023 which was approved by the Sarawak State Assembly recently. PETROS NIAGA has full authority over LPG GAS distribution activities in Sarawak. According to Violet Yong- anything monopolistic will affect the market and consumers in the long run. Give an example of the monopoly power possessed by CMS cement. Making the price of cement and houses in Sarawak one of the most expensive in Malaysia. Although the Minister of Utilities and Telecommunications Sarawak Julaihi Narawi assured the price of LPG Gas will remain at RM26.60 (the federal government's subsidy control price) Petros Niaga has become so powerful that it can choose any business partner who cannot object to any PetrOs Niaga directive. In the future, PETROS niaga has the authority to raise the price of gas barrels or charge any fees if deemed necessary. What the market needs right now is open competition. Where all parties have the same rights and powers in the sale and distribution of LPG Gas in Sarawak. YB Chong Cheing Jen and I protested at the State Assembly. But GPS has almost 100% majority. The GPS government should not bring or approve such a law in Sarawak which has a negative impact on the people of Sarawak.

Roland Engan, Human Rights Lawyer
*Ba Pakan Chief Removed for Environmental Stance: Village Rejects Replacement*
The Miri High Court will make a decision on 9/1/2024 for the case of judicial review against the appointment of Sakaria Padda as tribal leader for the Ba Pakan, Baram penan. A few months ago - 6 applicants, led by Julian Joy Singa - requested that there be confirmation or not of the appointment of Sakaria Padda as tribal leader. 
Previously, Kampung Ba Pakan appointed Padda Jutang (father of Sakaria Padda) as the tribal leader for the village of Ba Pakan. But Pada Jutang is an anti-logging person. When a logging company wants to log in the Ba Pakan area, Padda Jutang will oppose. Therefore, there is a need to change/replace him. So Sakaria Padda was suggested by the Miri Resident Office. Immediately after being appointed. Sakaria Padda continues to deal with logging companies that want to log in the Ba Pakan area. While the majority of the Penan Ba Pakan people are against logging. It is understood that counsel for both parties have argued in the oral hearing on 6/12/2023 - before high court judge Yang Arif Tuan Dean Wyne Daly. 
Roland Engan represented 6 applicants while Sarawak Attorney - Mr. Justin Lau represented the respondent. There are 4 respondents namely; Sakaria Padda, Miri Division Resident, Sarawak Government Secretary and Sarawak Government. Roland thinks, to solve the problem appoint a tribal leader in the future. The decision of the majority at the village level should be respected by the government or the Resident's office. The Resident's Office should accept anyone appointed at the village or longhouse level. The state government, YB and resident officials should not be involved in choosing who the tribal leader they like.

*Environmental Impact and Disrupted Lives: Murum Penan's Plight Post-Dam Construction*
Recently, heavy rain led to the road entering the Murum resettlement area being cut off. According to a report from the RFS yesterday, the logging company Shin Yang will undertake the task of repairing the road. The Murum Penan community expressed uncertainty about Shin Yang's intentions, while Abun Sui stated that there has been no sign of repair work starting.
This road cutoff incident once again brings to light the problems faced by the Murum Penan. It is understood that the state government, during the construction of the Murum dam, promised assistance to the affected communities, including a monthly allowance of 250 Malaysian Ringgit per household. However, this support was halted after 2018.
Abun pointed out that the environment in the Murum Penan resettlement area is not as abundant as before, lacking the forests and rivers for hunting and abundant resources for sustenance. Despite the diminished living environment, the standard of living for the Murum Penan has not improved, and they still rely on subsidies promised by the government. He mentioned that the Murum Penan have raised this issue, indicating that they still require assistance.
He emphasized that dams within the state of Sarawak are projects of the state government. If there are any issues of exploitation, the state government must address them. However, he also stressed that he would bring up relevant issues in parliament and with the relevant ministers to prevent the rights of the people of Sarawak from being compromised.

Gereng Jadum- Residents of Penan Metalun, Murum
*Belaga-Murum Road Repaired by Logging Company: Questions Arise*
Gereng Jadum gave the latest report regarding Landslides that buried and cut the Belaga-Murum road at KM17. Today is exactly 10 days since the incident. 
According to Gereng, the road has been passable, but the repair work is still ongoing. Surprisingly, it was not the Public Works Department that carried out the repair work. But on the other hand Shin Yang SY Logging Company. Perhaps Shin Yang SY feels responsible for repairing the road, because they are the biggest contributors to the damage to the road. Or Shin Yang SY- need to fix the road as soon as possible because they need to bring the logs and oil palm fruits immediately to the factory for processing. 
Gereng realized that there are 5 people's representatives in the Belaga area. One Member of Parliament (Wilson Ugak MP for Hulu Rajang GPS) 2 Assemblymen - Liwan Lagang and Chuck Pai Ugon (GPS) and 2 Senators. YB Senator Abun Sui (PKR) and YB Senator Micheal Mujah Lihan (GPS-UN) respectively. However, until now the problem of Murum pens still cannot be overcome. 
At the end of 2013, Penan Murum was relocated to Tegulang and Metalun. Promised assistance of RM850 per month until the results of the agricultural SKIMS that are being worked on give returns to the displaced Penan people. 6 years ago (2017) assistance of RM850 for a family was stopped, without reason and the promised agricultural scheme did not work. I request these 5 YBs to speak up for the Penan Murum people. We are currently working as a laborer in a nearby oil palm plantation with a salary of RM1500 per month. This is just enough to buy the basic necessities to continue living. We need the promised help of RM850 per family and we want the agriculture and animal husbandry scheme. The construction of dams has completely destroyed our forests and lives.

Elia Bit, Founder of PENA (Penan Empowerment Networking Association)
*Digital Divide: The Struggle of Penan People in Accessing the Civil E-Wallet Program*
The Madani E-wallet Credit Program starts today. Eligible citizens can start applying from today until 20 February 2024. A total of 10 million citizens are eligible to apply with an allocation of 1 billion ringgit. But Elia's worry is that the Penan people will be left out of enjoying the RM100 civil e-wallet. Where the majority of the Penan people live, there is no internet connection, the problem of illiteracy - many drop out of school and the problem of not having a Maykad/citizenship. I have to rebuke the Prime Minister- should be sensitive to the needs of minorities like the Penan. I applaud the initiative of the Anwar-led government to mobilize a special task force - the National Registration Department (NRD) to facilitate the process of applying for birth certificates and identity cards. But the process is too slow. The question is why is it late?. Because JPN officials do not know the Asal people from every village and longhouse. Therefore, JPN should appoint staff from among Sarawak Natives who know and understand the residents of a longhouse better. Like me (said Elia) I almost know 100% of all Penan residents from the Baram area. This will make it easier and faster to give birth certificates and identity cards to them. There are cases referred to me. Up to 3 to 4 times Penan residents were asked to go back and forth to meet the NRD in Miri. Each time it costs RM300 to RM500. I am asking for the help of a civil e-wallet to be credited directly to the deserving Penan people. The majority do not know how to apply online.

*SIRIM QAS Defends Samling's Sustainable Timber Certificate Despite Local Opposition*
Audit body SIRIM QAS International said that there was no reason to cancel the sustainable timber certificate given to Samling, despite the dispute in the FMU Gerenai area - but it was handled well. Sirim said this in response to BMF and The Borneo Project's call for international timber buyers to boycott Sarawak timber, especially those produced by the Samling Group company. According to Boyce, for decades Samling has been logging in our area and causing various problems. Now is the time for all the agencies to go to the field and see the damage done by Samling. I have met the majority of residents in the FMU Gerenai area. They have never seen a SIRIM representative come to their area to clearly see their problems. As an audit and certification body, SIRIM should hold open meetings and encourage residents to submit opinions and views. Samling entered our forest, took logs and after profiting hundreds of millions. They left us to inherit forests and broken roads. Is this sustainable? Boyce Ngau question. Samling withdrew from a RM5 million defamation suit in court a few months ago. This proves that Samling is not ready to face the people of Gerenai - brings evidence that Samling does not implement a transparent approach to get the consent of the people of the Gerenai area.</itunes:summary>

Willie Kajan, Social activist from Baram.
*Political Betrayal: PSB's Defection Disappoints Voters*
Willie Kajan- in the 2021 Sarawak state election supported the PSB Party because PSB promised to be the successor to GPS ruling Sarawak. PSB President Wong Soon Koh (United Sarawak Party) insisted that they do not want to be a strong opposition (like the DAP campaign) but are confident that they can replace GPS to rule Sarawak. But less than 2 years - Willie was so disappointed when in the Sarawak state assembly meeting that ended yesterday. All YB PSB have expressed open support for GPS. Now I consider the PSB Party to be a "Camelion" party that can change direction at any time. I was deceived and many voters were also deceived.
Today Willie reported that the Miri Auditorium was flooded with more than 1000 people to meet the NRD Special Task Force to solve the problem of Sarawakians who do not have identity cards and citizenship status. People are angry when JPN staff are not many and cause some residents to wait up to 3-4 days. They requested the assistance of YB and the Minister to extend the duration of the program because the rural community is in dire need of it. We are poor residents, we come from far away and sleep/overnight by this hall, just to solve our ID card problem. We are often scolded by hospital staff when receiving treatment because we do not have identity cards. We hope our problem will be solved this time.</itunes:summary>

Gereng Jadum, Penan from Metalun Murum
*Urgent for Action: Penan Community Cut Off by Landslide at Murum Dam*
Gereng Jadum reports that today marks the 3rd day of the landslide at KM17 of the road to the Murum dam. Causing the Penan community there to be cut off from the outside world. Which we are most concerned about. How to send a sick family in an emergency. Gereng said that he himself was stuck on the road for 3 hours. The road is impassable due to mud floods. An alternative road, through the oil palm plantation road was opened. But unfortunately the road was also flooded. Residents take their own risk to wade through the flood to get home. I reached home at 12 pm. Three hours looking for a way out of the oil palm plantation. According to Gereng again, such incidents often recur every year. No wonder why landslides often occur in the area. The area is an active logging and plantation area. The landslide area is through the SOP- Sarawak Oil Palm Plantation. I appeal to the state government and the central government. Repair the road to Murum. At least 4 dangerous rubble areas. When the rainy season ends at the end of the year, the situation becomes more risky. The government should not just build the road to the Murum Dam. Build a road to the Penan village. I think it is fair to demand that the timber company and the Palm Oil Company be held responsible for rebuilding the road that was damaged due to their actions.

Samaruddin Ajing, Residents of Muara Selebai Village, Betong-Sarawak
*Ensuring Accountability: The Need for Annual Audits in Local Governance*
Samaruddin welcomed the grant allocation of RM50-RM100K for each village and longhouse across the country under the Madani community program. The unity government has allocated RM1 billion overall to all villages and longhouses in the 2024 budget, allowing residents to decide on projects beneficial to them. Din hopes for government guidance in the planned economic ventures/projects of the villagers, emphasizing the need for marketing, packaging, and advisory services. Additionally, he calls for the annual audit of financial accounts of the Village Development and Security Committee (JKKK). However, he expresses concern for his area in Betong, where the majority of JKKK is dominated by GPS, and he fears that the project and allocation will also be controlled by GPS. Din cites an example where YB GPS is invited to the launch ceremony, making it appear as a state government effort despite federal government allocations through the Madani community program. He highlights past instances where the central government's initiatives, such as the JPJ masuk kampung program, were manipulated by YBYB GPS, urging vigilance from the administration of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim against GPS's influence. Din concludes by emphasizing the need to recognize efforts from various sources, not just those praised by the people.

Jeffridin Baudi, the Resident Representative of Sabah Forest Industry Housing Park
*SFI Housing Estate Residents' Dilemma: Seeking Justice and Support*
Through a media release dated November 26, 2023, that the Sabah State Government has emerged victorious in the 13,000-hectare land dispute case. The court ruled that Grant Thorn (GT) was a trespasser, and the state government's acquisition of the land was deemed complete.
Consequently, GT, its agents, and staff are required to vacate the land immediately to facilitate the implementation of forest sustainability, research, and conservation programs by the Sabah state government. Jeffridin emphasized that any disputes between the state government and external parties should not adversely affect the workers of Sabah Forest Industry (SFI). Many SFI employees have dedicated 20 to 30 years to the organization, and some are elderly and fragile.
According to available information, an eviction notice will be issued shortly, and Jeffridin appeals to the Chief Minister of Sabah and other leaders entrusted with the welfare of the people to provide assistance. He urges them to prepare a place for the affected individuals to relocate. Highlighting that the residents of the SFI housing estate are also citizens with rights, Jeffridin expresses concern that the state government appears to view the matter solely from a business profit and loss perspective.
He reminds the authorities that the affected individuals are the people of Sabah, entitled to basic facilities as human beings and deserving of compensation if they lose their jobs. A total of 647 families residing in the SFI Housing Estate, all of them former SFI factory workers, are affected by this decision.

SCRIPS (Society for rights of Indigenous people of Sarawak). Micheal Jok is a former priest in the Roman Catholic church.
Mike agreed with the chairman of the Association of Sarawak Churches (ACS) Datuk Danald Jute, to withdraw from the program "A Christmas Carol, Sarawak in Diversity". According to Danald Jute, ACS withdrew because the organizers TVS did not allow the song "O Holy Night" to be sung - on the grounds that "it was rejected due to the religious elements and also due to the protocol from LPF". According to Mike, how is the celebration to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Religious songs that rejoice to welcome Christ, are not allowed. This means that the organizers of the program want to show that the people of Sarawak are united in diversity. But the fact is that diversity is allowed/celebrated. It's just a gimmick. Mike said. Mike stressed that in accordance with MA63, there is no official religion in Sarawak, the position of all religions is equal. ACS's move is correct, so as not to set a bad precedent for the future.

Yb Chong Chieng Gen, Member of the Padungan State Assembly
*Selling Power, Draining Reserves: Chong's Critique of Sarawak's Energy Strategy*
Chong objected to the Sarawak government's proposal to sell 1000MW of clean energy to Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia. This is because Sarawak itself has not yet used 100% clean energy. Why doesn't the Sarawak government channel all clean energy for local use first, before selling to foreign countries. By doing so it will produce added value to the products of the local industry. The Sarawak government can also issue recognition certificates to local industries that use clean energy. For the record, Sarawak currently uses 4 types of energy sources to generate electricity. That is Hydro, coal, diesel and gas. Chong is upset that the Sarawak government is willing to sell energy abroad while the margin of Sarawak's energy reserve is still insufficient. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) the energy reserve margin should be between (20-35%). Where Sarawak has not yet reached that level. This at the same time causes the possibility that there will be a frequency of electrical disturbances. Sarawak is willing to risk the needs of its own people. Chong said, although hydropower is said to be renewable energy. But the amount should be controlled to reduce the impact of environmental damage. I request this proposal to be stopped - Chong said.</itunes:summary>

*Environmental Crisis Ignored: GPS Prioritizes Money Over Sustainability*
The Sarawak state assembly conference passed 5 Bills including the Environment Bill (Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions) 2023. Sarawak is proud to be the first state in Malaysia to have such a bill. According to Deputy Minister in the Sarawak Premier's Department (Law, MA63 and federal-state relations) Sharifah Hasidah Sayeed Aman Ghazali - this is Sarawak's commitment to achieving zero carbon emissions by 2050 and Sarawak's efforts to look after and protect the environment. According to Iswardy- The minister's statement is contrary to the state government's actions recommending more dams be built and more logging and palm oil plantation licenses approved. The Sarawak government is projecting revenue from palm oil in 2024 of RM850 million and land premium revenue of RM400 million. While Sarawak Premier Abang Johari as reported by NST intends to build more dams and reach an energy capacity of 7000 MW by 2026. According to Iswardy again - to protect the environment, Sarawak needs to reduce logging and oil palm plantations (use of fertilizers and poisons) and there is no need to build dams extra. The Sarawak government is too obsessed with making profits, so much so that it forgets about the environment. For example, the majority of residents downstream of the Bakun dam still do not have access to electricity. But the state government plans to sell electricity all the way to Singapore. Poor people are neglected because they cannot afford to pay electricity bills and their consumption is small. But the government is so excited to get revenue through hydropower generation - sold abroad. The amount of Sarawak's real energy needs needs to be identified, it seems that the number of existing dams is sufficient - Iswardy Morni.</itunes:summary>

Nick Kelesau, Spokesperson for Penan Keruan.
*Dams, Crocodiles, and Controversies: Nick's Concerns Over Sarawak's Development Plans*
Nick commented on the 3 giant Malaysian companies namely Petronas, CMS and Gamuda competing to build dams and venture into the renewable energy industry in Sarawak. Sarawak wants to build a dam in Trusan in Limbang and Lawas. Plus the Baram and Tutoh dams. According to Nick, the Penan people who are the majority living in the area feel depressed, worried, feel like they are being bullied and oppressed. We were not asked if we agreed or not. In addition, today the Sarawak state assembly conference reported an increase in the crocodile population in Sungai Balingian. According to the Premier, the construction of the dam is to control the increase in the crocodile population. The dam should be built in Balingian, not in Tutoh. According to Nick, the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Bill 2023 that was approved in the State Assembly today is very good for protecting the environment. So the Sarawak government should stop building dams, stop logging and palm oil plantations that destroy the environment. If it is true that the Sarawak government wants to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2050.</itunes:summary>

Gereng Jadum, Penan from Metalun Resettlement, Murum
*Sarawak state assembly conference, I don't even know*
Asked if Gereng knew that all 82 YBs gathered at the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly in Kuching from today 20 to 29 November 2023 in the 19th Sarawak State Assembly meeting - Did you know that the 2024 budget will be presented today? I do not know. 
Gereng informed that his place of residence which is far inland makes it difficult for him to get information. Telephone and internet lines are obtained by subscribing to "Connect Me". That is at a price of RM12 for 1GB of data. If online FB one hour will be over. Gereng requested the Sarawak government to broadcast the DUN conference on TV and Radio because it can be watched through ASTRO broadcasts. It was asked if the people's representatives (YBs) of the Murum area had asked about the problems they were facing, so that the problem could be brought to the Sarawak State Assembly meeting. Gereng said YB had no questions and met us. Maybe we will have a chance to meet him on 23 to 25 Nov 2023 in a cultural event "ADET TAPOK" in Murum. If there is an opportunity, I will voice 4 main issues to be resolved by the Sarawak government. First- the road from our longhouse to SK Metalun school. Second- Health Clinic Construction. Third- Clean water supply and fourth- Telecommunication services. If these 4 things can be resolved. Our Penan people's lives in Murum will be more comfortable.</itunes:summary>

Pushpan Murugiah, CEO of C4 (Center to combat corruption and cronyism)
*Ensuring Stability: C4 Proposes Political Funding Act to Curb Party Switching and Uncertainty in Malaysian Politics*
Is it wrong from a legal, democratic or moral point of view? Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim offered federal financial allocations to attract the support of parliamentarians to support him?
The Center to Combat Corruption and Cronyism (C4) is alarmed over the switch of support by four rogue Bersatu MPs, saying that it proves the need for a political financing act and amendments to close loopholes that allow parliamentarians to bypass anti-hopping measures. 
According to Pusphan - development allocations, building schools, ditches, clinics or nurseries are not the responsibility of parliamentarians. The main responsibility of parliamentarians is to build and formulate good policies for the country. Therefore, all parliamentary areas should be given adequate development allocations. Therefore - to find a solution to this problem, C4 suggests that a political funding act be presented. That is, all political parties receive allocations from the government according to certain criteria. All parliamentary constituencies will get development allocations. C4 also thinks that there should be no party jumping or switching support after the election, because it will cause the country's politics to be in uncertainty in the long term which will further harm the people.</itunes:summary>

Richard Regan, Resident of Long Terawan Mulu.
*Campaign against the construction of the Tutoh dam*
Richard is from Long Terawan. A village that will be affected if the Tutoh hydro dam is built. Yesterday Sarawak's deputy minister of energy and environmental sustainability - Dr. Hazland Abang Hipni assured that the Tutoh dam that will be built, is safe and strong. According to the minister, similar dam construction has been built in several other countries and it has proven to be strong. 
According to Richard, we do not question the strength and safety of the dam. We question building dams is not a good development plan for rural people. Those who will profit, the state government, cronies and big companies. This has been proven in Bakun, Murum and Batang Ai. Those who will be severely affected in their lives, are the original people who live or are displaced due to the construction of the dam. This has been proven in Sarawak. We ask to cancel the Tutoh dam construction plan. Build roads and bridges to our village. For agricultural projects, planting vegetables, rice or raising chickens or fish to us. This will further advance our nation. Dr. Hazland was interviewed by reporters after attending the Borneo Environment 2023 conference at a hotel in Kuching.

There is a tendency/possibility of Palestinian war refugees to Malaysia. Since PMX Anwar Ibrahim supports the struggle of Hamas - PJJ said. This matter is becoming more apparent with the statement of the Minister of Finance of Israel - as reported by Malaysiakini today. ” An independent Gaza is unlikely to become a reality, and the Palestinians living there should “voluntarily” move to other countries. According to Pjj, the people of Sarawak and Sabah strongly oppose the entry of Palestinian refugees, it is feared that it will disturb the harmony of the races in both states. The problems brought by Rohinya and Bangladesh refugees are already enough. In other words, Malaysia can help but not by bringing them back to Malaysia. We can help by providing food and medical and financial assistance. But at the same time let's not forget that the Orang Asli of Sarawak (Penan) also need similar help. SAPA's stance, does not mean we are racist but to avoid bigger problems in the future.</itunes:summary>

YB Chong Chieng Gen, Member of the Padungan State Legislative Assembly
*Sarawak State Assembly Live Broadcast Opposed by GPS*
There is no law preventing the live broadcast of the Sarawa state assembly conference. Only GPS doesn't want live broadcast.
The Sarawak state assembly conference will take place on 20 to 29 Nov 2023. It is very sad that the Sarawak State Assembly meeting is not broadcast live for public viewing. Asked if there is any law that prevents the Sarawak State Assembly meeting from being broadcast live on TV, Radio or social media. There is no law preventing it - said Chong. Only the desire for GPS is the only obstacle. GPS Sarawak government does not want the DUN conference to be broadcast live. I will continue to insist that there be a live broadcast - said Chong. In fact, according to Chong, the quality of the answers given by the GPS minister was also very disappointing and most of my questions were not answered directly. Instead answered through a written answer. Even so, I will get an answer 3,4 months after the conference. Sometimes, what I ask is different, and the answer is different. This time I will ask a question to the Premier of Sarawak, what is the total number of races in Sarawak who hold positions in the state public service. I want detailed statistics.

There is no law preventing the live broadcast of the Sarawa state assembly conference. Only GPS doesn't want live broadcast.
The Sarawak state assembly conference will take place on 20 to 29 Nov 2023. It is very sad that the Sarawak State Assembly meeting is not broadcast live for public viewing. Asked if there is any law that prevents the Sarawak State Assembly meeting from being broadcast live on TV, Radio or social media. There is no law preventing it - said Chong. Only the desire for GPS is the only obstacle. GPS Sarawak government does not want the DUN conference to be broadcast live. I will continue to insist that there be a live broadcast - said Chong. In fact, according to Chong, the quality of the answers given by the GPS minister was also very disappointing and most of my questions were not answered directly. Instead answered through a written answer. Even so, I will get an answer 3,4 months after the conference. Sometimes, what I ask is different, and the answer is different. This time I will ask a question to the Premier of Sarawak, what is the total number of races in Sarawak who hold positions in the state public service. I want detailed statistics.

*Cry for Recognition: The Neglected Welfare of Sarawak Border Scouts*
Dennis Along collaborated with FB operator History Of Miri-Chang Yee to re-report the history of Sarawak Border Scouts (Special Task Force that guarded Sarawak's border security in 1964). In 1964 Sarawak Border Scouts was established through an understanding between the British-backed Commonwealth government and the newly established Malaysian government. This team is made up of local children who act to protect the security of Sarawak's borders from the threat of Kalimantan guerrillas. The team has received paramilitary training before being allowed to engage in assignments. Their greatest service was curbing the Malaysia-Indonesia confrontation and curbing communist influence from North Kalimantan. According to Dennis, many members of the Border Scouts team have died and those who are still alive are 70 to 80 years old. Their welfare is not taken care of. They were not given a pension, no special allowance, no land or house. It's more unfortunate that there are members of the Border Scouts who are still not given Malaysian/Sarawak citizenship. We feel called to stop this cruelty and neglect and we call on the community to report to us if they have family members who have served with the Sarawak Border Scouts. We will write down their history and report to the government of Sarawak and Malaysia so that they are given due recognition. We also want people to report to us if they have any family members who were paramilitary volunteers who were assigned from 1941 to 1946 to fight the Japanese invasion at that time. We feel they should also be appreciated and given the remuneration and appreciation they deserve. Many residents of Baram sacrificed their lives to preserve the peace of the country - Dennis Along said.</itunes:summary>

Ukau Lupong, Head of Long Iman Penan Village, Mulu. Baram
*Power to the People: Penan's Rejection of Dam Threats to Their Heritage*
Ukau Lupong stated that when the communities learned about the Sarawak Premier's plans to construct a dam in the Tutoh area, they strongly disagreed and regretted the blockade. The dam construction poses a threat to their lives, as the Tutoh River has been a vital source of sustenance for a considerable period. The Sarawak government's plan to build the dam is placing immense pressure on their livelihoods. There is a genuine fear that the dam could collapse, resulting in fatalities. Additionally, they are opposed to the idea of their village being flooded and their land destroyed.
Ukau Lupong criticized the Premier of Sarawak for acting recklessly without seeking their opinions, deeming it an irresponsible act. The community is now appealing for the halting of the Tutoh dam construction plan, or they will resort to blocking it. Their primary request is for basic infrastructure such as roads, telephones, and electricity. While the Mulu Resort has electricity, the Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB) has not extended the electricity supply to their village. The community emphasizes the need for essential infrastructure rather than mega dams. Ukau Lupong boldly asserts that he is not afraid of the Premier of Sarawak and stresses that the Penan people vehemently disagree with the government's decision to build a dam in their area. The plea is clear: stop the construction and avoid intimidating the Penan people.</itunes:summary>

------------
Baru Bian- Member of the Bakelalan State Legislative AssemblySarawak.
*The Impact of Sarawak's Mega Dams*
Baru Bian submitted 10 questions to the DUN at the DUN meeting which will start from 20 to 29 Nov 2023. Among the questions related to the construction of dams and the re-demarcation of electoral areas. Baru Bian asked the Sarawak government to state the number of hydro dams in the construction plan, whether the community has been informed and whether the feasibility study has been completed. Asked if there is an energy development strategy in Sarawak, by building hydro dams that are very profitable. According to Baru Bian. It is beneficial to the government but detrimental to the native people in terms of loss of land and losses due to negative impact on the environment. In the long run. We lost - according to Baru Bian. According to Baru Bian, the amount of energy from the 4 mega dams in Sarawak is currently more than enough for local use.
The second question is related to the re-delimitation of electoral areas. Baru Bian agreed that the number of constituencies for the Sarawak State Assembly should be increased. So that a large area can be reduced and the people's representatives can carry out their duties more effectively. He hopes that Bakelalan state assembly can be added one more state assembly area. Regarding the Gedong state assembly area (Sarawak Premier's contested area) which has the smallest number of voters in Sarawak but is located in an urban area. While the Murum and Belaga areas are outside the city, large areas have more voters. Baru Bian suggested that the people of Sarawak participate in proposing a new area/demarcation of the DUN area in their place. That's why I raise this question so that the population is informed and participates in the process of delimitation of electoral areas.</itunes:summary>

According to Komeok, the entire penan community is against the government's plan to build the Tutoh dam. We were surprised when we read in the newspaper, the Premier of Sarawak announced the construction of the Tutoh dam, supposedly everything had been approved. We all disagree, maybe only YB agrees. Tutoh River is our source of life. There are many fish. There are lots of crocodiles too. But the crocodile didn't bother us. In the Tutoh area, the majority are Penan, followed by Kayan, Tering, Berawan, Lakiput, Iban and Kedayan. We all want good roads, not hydro dams. We will write a letter to YB and the Premier. But we are ready to fight if we have to. We ask everyone to help us. We can successfully prevent the construction of the Tutoh dam just as we successfully prevented the construction of the Baram dam.</itunes:summary>

*Ensuring Equal Representation: The Delimitation Process in Sarawak*
According to Danesh, the demarcation of constituencies for state assembly and parliament in Sarawak should have started now. According to the federal constitution article 113(ii) the interval between one review completion date and the next review start date, should not be less than 8 years. The last time the delimitation of the Sarawak electoral area was in 2015. According to Danesh, even though the EC is in power, it proposed to the Premier of Sarawak and the DUN of Sarawak and the Prime Minister and the Parliament for parliamentary seats. Affected members of the public can suggest reasonable demarcations. Within 30 days after the proposal is displayed by the SPR. Therefore people are encouraged to participate. Malaysia's action detected a significant flaw in the delimitation of Sarawak State Assembly Area in the past 2015. Gedong state assembly area (city pinggit), the area is small and allocated a small number of voters (10,067). Areas like Murum State Assembly, a vast area. Has more voters- rural areas. Action Malaysia hopes that the number of voters in each state assembly area will be almost the same. This gives justice through the principle of one person one vote. Action Malaysia hopes that the government will improve road and telecommunications network facilities to rural areas and increase allocations for each state assembly and parliamentary area to provide more convenience to voters and officials during the election. Act Malaysia has also launched a website and is ready to help affected voters voice their views and rights in the issue of delimitation of Sarawak constituencies.

John Brian Anthony, Dayak Political Analyst
*Inequities in Sarawak's Civil Service: The Dayak Representation Challenge*
In a question and answer session in Parliament. Minister in the Prime Minister's Department for Sabah and Sarawak Affairs Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali told Parliament that only 4.8% (48,645 people) of Sarawak bumiputras work in the federal civil service. The total number of federal civil servants is currently 1.1 million people. John detailed that the term Bumiputra Sarawak is a mixture of Sarawak Malays and Sarawak Dayaks. Usually Malays will take 70% of the quota, the rest for Dayaks. This means that there are only approximately 12 thousand Dayaks in the federal civil service. I see many Dayaks who are qualified, highly educated and high achievers. I am sure we are discriminated against. The civil government should rectify this situation and evaluate applications based on merit. Not a racial quota. Second, John mentioned that in Sarawak there are 35 Dayak state assembly seats, which were won by GPS. Why until now no special provision has been given to the Dayak people to develop land and trade. In the 2024 budget, page 78 is mentioned. Focus communities (a) Orang Asli- The Orang Asli community is allocated 333 million ringgit in 2024 compared to 305 million ringgit in 2023. The allocation covers the implementation of socioeconomic development projects, infrastructure in the orang asli villages and the provision of social assistance. I call on all the YBs of the Dayak people to meet with PMX so that there is a special provision for the Dayak people in the 2024 budget. I am confident of cooperation in the unity government. PMX will allocate accordingly.

Celine Lim, Managing Director of Save River Network
*Sarawak's Green Energy Initiatives: Whose Interests Are They Serving?*
Save Rivers expressed concern due to the aggressive and obsessive actions of the GPS Sarawak government announcing several green energy projects to be built in Sarawak. But whatever the government plans. Our main demand, respect the rights of the original people and improve the way development is done. In the case of the proposed construction of the Baram and Tutoh dams. The place has indigenous people who have lived there for hundreds of years. Why aren't we/they told in advance and their opinion respected. In the context of green energy and renewable energy. Save Rivers has long stated our position that the construction of mega dams including cascading dams is polluting and damaging the environment. We are against the construction of this kind of dam, even on the grounds of development and progress. I request the Premier of Sarawak to respect the rights of the Indigenous people and not create conflict and tension against the Indigenous community. The Sarawak government recently announced that it will build a hydro-electric dam in Tutoh, Baram and plans to build an ASEAN energy grid to sell energy to neighboring countries. Besides that, Sarawak also announced the green hydrogen project, carbon trading and Carbon capture and storage. For Celine all this will benefit the rich capitalists. But will affect the lives of native people and the environment.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst and Activist
*Questions Arise Over Funding for Borneo's Major Infrastructure Projects*
According to Iswardi- GPS will win big in the Jepak state by-election because PBK and Aspirasi have not succeeded in bringing issues that interest voters. The main issue brought up by both parties is the independence of Sarawak. The issue of secession is not the main issue in Sarawak. On the other hand, the issue of corruption and abuse of power should be the focus of Sarawak's opposition parties.
Iswardi commented on 3 big projects that were announced on the island of Borneo a few days ago. First The construction of a new airport in the Capital of the Indonesian Archipelago which was recently announced by President Jokowi. The two proposed construction of the Trans-Borneo railway project connects Sarawak, Sabah and the archipelago in Indonesia. The third project. Asean subsea grid to sell electricity to neighboring countries. In terms of business planning and business and job opportunities. I have no problem and I agree. But I question who will bear the cost of the submarine cable and the cost of the trans Borneo railway project. Are these projects designed to distribute wealth to GPS cronies?. And the people are still poor? I also want to criticize the Premier of Sarawak. You have to show the profit from hydro generation first before launching a new hydro project. You also have to show the progress enjoyed by the people who had to sacrifice to make way for the hydroelectric project. If the hydro project has been built. Still not seeing the benefits. There is no need to build new hydro dams. Through 4 hydro dams that have been built. Many people are still poor (there is no electricity yet) and thousands of hectares of forest were destroyed. The Premier of Sarawak should respect the rights of the people of Sarawak and not arbitrarily announce that he wants to build a hydro dam without the consent of the people living in the area.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Indigenous Land and Environmental Activist from Long Terawan, MULU
*International Support Needed: Sarawak Activists' Fight for Environmental Justice*
The Government of Malaysia and the Government of Switzerland should work together to protect environmental activists who are fighting to defend Sarawak's traditional land and environment from being destroyed. Dennis Along expressed his regret when the Swiss government did not protect the NGO (BMF) that was sued by the daughter of Sarawak Governor Taib Mahmud. In 2018 Jamilah Taib Murray filed a defamation suit against BMF linking her real estate company (SAKTO GROUP) with corruption in the timber industry in Sarawak. The remark of the UN special rapporteur (Michael Forst) is timely - Dennis said. Dennis recalled the disappearance of Bruno Manser in the forest of Sarawak in 2000. The Sarawak government and Taib Mahmud should be able to provide an answer to the mysterious disappearance - Bruno. Bruno is known for his efforts to protect the Penan community in Baram. According to Dennis-Saman SLAPP is an attempt to silence critics and intimidate environmental activists. In Sarawak, recently, a giant logging company (Samling) sued Save Rivers Network for alleged defamation. But the end. Samling lost and had to withdraw the suit. In the Baram Dam case. Some Baram residents were also sued by the government and developers. But all this did not scare or break the spirit of activists who are active in Baram to oppose the mega dam construction plan. We will also discuss the Tutoh dam construction plan - Dennis said. In any case. Our efforts against the Sarawak government which is so obsessed with building dams will be more effective if assisted by the Civilian Government led by Anwar Ibrahim and the Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change. We request PMX and Nik Nazmi to intervene.</itunes:summary>

Richard Engan, Resident of Tutoh Baram
*Transparency and the Sarawak Dams: A Call for Answers*
Richard is a resident of Sungai Tutoh, Baram. Sungai Tutoh is the birthplace of the Tering and Berawan (Richard's ancestors). We were surprised during the Baram Regatta - the Premier of Sarawak announced that he would build a dam in Baram. Some days today. We were surprised again when the Premier of Sarawak stated that he had received a letter from Tutoh residents who allegedly requested to build a hydro-electric dam in the Tutoh area. If you ask me, I don't agree with the hydro dam being built in Sungai Tutoh. I saw the people in Bakun Sungai Asap. Their lives are getting harder compared to living in their original place in the upper Bakun. They were only given 3 acres of land for one family. Compared to the original area they inherited hundreds of acres of land. For me the Sarawak government should explain 2 things. First- what is the profit that has been obtained by the Sarawak government after building 4 dams (Bakun, Murum, Baleh and Batang ai), what is the profit and progress obtained by the displaced population due to the construction of the dam. Second- who really benefits. In the construction of the Bakun dam. We find Sime Darby, Ekran, Sinohydro, SEB and GPS cronies who are profitable. We don't see ordinary people benefiting. Therefore - in the future speeches of the Premier of Sarawak. He should answer my question based on facts. If he fails to answer my question. There is no way we at Tutoh will agree.

Their lives are getting harder compared to living in their original place in the upper Bakun. They were only given 3 acres of land for one family. Compared to the original area they inherited hundreds of acres of land. For me the Sarawak government should explain 2 things. First- what is the profit that has been obtained by the Sarawak government after building 4 dams (Bakun, Murum, Baleh and Batang ai), what is the profit and progress obtained by the displaced population due to the construction of the dam. Second- who really benefits. In the construction of the Bakun dam. We find Sime Darby, Ekran, Sinohydro, SEB and GPS cronies who are profitable. We don't see ordinary people benefiting. Therefore - in the future speeches of the Premier of Sarawak. He should answer my question based on facts. If he fails to answer my question. There is no way we at Tutoh will agree.

Willie Kajan, Leader of Tering Tribe
*Tutoh Dam in Baram: Who Really Wants It, NOT the Communities!*
A social activist from Baram, Willie Kajan has refuted recent claims by Sarawak's Premier, Abang Johari Openg, regarding the construction of a hydro-dam in the Baram district of northern Sarawak. According to Willie Kajan, who is also an elder of the Tering ethnic community and a tour leader, the desire for such a project does not stem from the native residents of Baram but is rather championed by state government politicians, particularly members of the GPS party.
Kajan challenged Abang Johari to disclose the names of those within the Baram region who, as the Premier asserts, are eager for the dam project to proceed. He emphasized that neither he nor his community members have been consulted regarding this development. 
Furthermore, Kajan emphasized the environmental significance of the Tutoh River, which is intricately linked to the Mulu National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. He pointed out that any significant changes to the river's flow could have adverse consequences for the national park, calling into question whether Abang Johari fully comprehends these potential repercussions.
The Premier had announced the intention to construct a cascading hydroelectric dam in the remote reaches of the Baram district, citing the purported local demand for such a project. Abang Johari claimed to have received requests from Baram residents who, in the past, had been opposed to the construction of hydro-dams but now supported the idea. He stated that the dam's construction would not only provide electricity for locals but also for export to neighboring countries.
The conflicting claims surrounding the Tutoh Dam project have brought to the forefront questions about transparency, local consultation, and the potential environmental impact of such large-scale infrastructure developments in Sarawak.

Jeffridin Baudi- Representative of the residents of SFI Housing Park (Sabah Forest Industry)
*Residents of SFI Housing Park Demand Their Basic Right: Electricity*
On May 2, 2023, the electricity supply to SFI housing was cut off due to the SFI company being declared bankrupt. Previously SFI was taken over by Lion Group and then Balapur Company from India. But these efforts could not save SFI. All 647 families (over 2000 residents) are SFI paper mill workers. They are now on unpaid leave pending a new company that will take over the management of SFI. However, due to the hardships of life, many paper mill workers are unable to pay their monthly electricity bills, which reach RM300 thousand - the accumulated amount. The result of the discussion - residents are willing to pay 85% of the arrears to Sabah elektrikcity SDN.BHD (SESB). But somehow why the state government, especially the chief minister of Sabah and the secretary of the state government of Sabah have not yet given instructions to SESB to make a connection to our housing. We have children in school, now we have no job and no salary. Try to imagine the difficulty level of our life. How we live our daily lives in the dark. Electricity supply is a basic human right. We are willing to pay, why after more than 6 months the state government still does not help us. From what we researched. The state government wants to hand over SFI to businessman Syed Mokthar Al Bukhari with terms and conditions that may be different. But in their plan, we had to vacate this housing estate and we were fired. Whatever the state government decides, don't prey on us. We have a family that we have to feed every day. We demand that the Chief Minister of Sabah - Hajiji Noor be more responsible and concerned about our rights and welfare.</itunes:summary>

Bill said- don't waste the teachers' time, money and energy on useless activities. We should all keep schools away from international conflicts such as the war between Israel and Palestine. Schools should return to their original purpose of educating children about values, understanding, tolerance and avoiding extremist attitudes. The conflict between Palestine and Israel has a long history. Encouraging young people to support one side is a bad idea. Regarding the support of the Malaysian government and PMX supporting Palestine. According to Bill Jugah. The actions of politicians should be read through two lines. PMX may want to kill the arguments of supporters of extremist factions such as PAS and take the hearts of Muslim countries for investment and political support.

Willie Kajan, Activist from Baram
*GPS's Intent turn Sarawak to sultanate state, eg: Renaming Chief Minister as Premier*
The Jepak state assembly by-election campaign is getting hotter when - from the very first day there has been provocation and the throwing of ideas and arguments. During the first day of the campaign, GPS belittled the PBK party (Parti Bumi Kenyalang). According to GPS, PBK should not contest because PBK is a mosquito/small party. GPS claims that they are certain to win. PBK- through the president- Voon Lee Shan responded- that GPS is too arrogant to stifle the voice of democracy. Voon attacked GPS with the idea that if given too much power, GPS would turn Sarawak into an Islamic state or eventually become a sultanate state. This was denied by GPS through Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah's statement. Voon said GPS governed Sarawak unfairly, causing Sarawak to be a rich state with poor people. PBK is fighting for Sarawak to leave Malaysia. 
Willie agrees with Voon's view that GPS is unfair in governing Sarawak. Revenue from the interior is unloaded and the area is left poor and lacking infrastructure facilities. According to Willie, although Karim denied that Sarawak would not become a sultanate state. But efforts towards that have already begun. That is, Sarawak has changed the title of the chief minister to Premier (meaning Prime Minister). Related to the idea that Sarawak should demand to leave Malaysia. According to Willie, if after 60 years Sarawak's existence in Malaysia does not bring the expected progress. The idea of leaving Malaysia should be considered.

Nick Kelesau Naan, Spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization, Baram
*Dennis Ngau's Failures and Land Encroachments on Penan*
Dennis Ngau failed to bring development to the Penan people, and even conspired with logging cronies to encroach on the land of the Penan people
YB Dennis Ngau - speaking in a community empowerment program at Long Luteng Rural Community Service Center said, the Penan should not be mere spectators, they should participate in the government's development program. The Penan people should not be influenced by the negative propaganda of NGOs that urge the Penan to oppose the government. 
Nick questioned the statement, when Penan opposed the government's development plan. We even ask that schools, clinics, roads, clean water supply, telecommunication connections and business and agricultural programs be brought to our place. In fact, all our requests are not able to be provided by the government. But what we are talking about is YB Dennis Ngau's intervention in the appointment of village heads in Ba Abang and Long Pakan. 
Witnessing the village leader supported by the majority of the village people - not ashamed to be appointed. On the other hand, the village head candidate supported by YB Dennis got a certificate of appointment from the district office. I question why YB Dennis did that? The answer is because the village chief who wants to support Yb Dennis allows the entry of logging and oil palm plantation companies to our land. It is true that there are NGOs that help us to work on UBFA. It is for the good of us Penan people, where we get fairer rights. Although the logging license in the UBFA area was not abolished as we demanded - at least the logging companies that want to enter our land should hold negotiations that satisfy us first. I beg YB Dennis to stop the provocation against the Penan people, YB should focus on bringing development. Not working on something that benefits his business cronies.

Nick Kelesau Naan, Spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization, Baram
*Dennis Ngau's Failures and Land Encroachments on Penan*
Dennis Ngau failed to bring development to the Penan people, and even conspired with logging cronies to encroach on the land of the Penan people
YB Dennis Ngau - speaking in a community empowerment program at Long Luteng Rural Community Service Center said, the Penan should not be mere spectators, they should participate in the government's development program. The Penan people should not be influenced by the negative propaganda of NGOs that urge the Penan to oppose the government. 
Nick questioned the statement, when Penan opposed the government's development plan. We even ask that schools, clinics, roads, clean water supply, telecommunication connections and business and agricultural programs be brought to our place. In fact, all our requests are not able to be provided by the government. But what we are talking about is YB Dennis Ngau's intervention in the appointment of village heads in Ba Abang and Long Pakan. 
Witnessing the village leader supported by the majority of the village people - not ashamed to be appointed. On the other hand, the village head candidate supported by YB Dennis got a certificate of appointment from the district office. I question why YB Dennis did that? The answer is because the village chief who wants to support Yb Dennis allows the entry of logging and oil palm plantation companies to our land. It is true that there are NGOs that help us to work on UBFA. It is for the good of us Penan people, where we get fairer rights. Although the logging license in the UBFA area was not abolished as we demanded - at least the logging companies that want to enter our land should hold negotiations that satisfy us first. I beg YB Dennis to stop the provocation against the Penan people, YB should focus on bringing development. Not working on something that benefits his business cronies.

Voon Lee Shan, PBK President (Bumi Kenyalang Party)
*The 99% Dominance of GPS in Sarawak State Assembly: A Democracy Check*
On nomination day, the GPS leader expressed a somewhat contemptuous expectation and questioned PBK, asking why they are participating in the election. They suggested that PBK should let GPS win the by-election without wasting money. This is a voice of arrogance and intent to belittle and humiliate our party. Voon said. This is a democratic country. Anyone can compete and the winner will be determined after counting the votes. Asked whether PBK can win and what issues are brought up. The main issue is the independence of Sarawak. After 60 years have passed. Sarawak is not developed. So to develop Sarawak. Sarawak should become an independent country with its own administration. GPS wants political power in Malaysia through MA63. But PBK is of the view that MA63 is an invalid agreement. Many professors and legal practitioners think that MA63 is invalid and should be repealed. So to cancel MA63 and bring Sarawak out of Malaysia. So PBK should be given victory and win big in the upcoming Sarawak State Assembly Election. The Jepak state by-election is also an opportunity to raise corruption and abuse of power. The solar embezzlement case of the RM1.25 billion hybrid solar project that links the corruption of Rosmah Mansur must be uncovered. The owner of the company and those involved are in Jepak. People should know and be aware to reject corrupt leaders.
Apart from that, political power up to 99% is dominated by GPS in the Sarawak State Assembly, not healthy for democracy- check power. Imagine if GPS amended Sarawak law and made the position of TYT as Sultan. So Taib Mahmud will bequeath his position to his children and grandchildren in the future. At this time the position of Chief Minister has been changed to Premier. It is not impossible that he can also be changed to the Prime Minister. This can all be done with political power. We in Sarawak do not want the status of Sarawak to be changed to a Muslim country. While 62% of the population of Sarawak are Christians. Therefore, the vote should be given to the party that will fight for the rights of the people of Sarawak. I pray for a successful election campaign. For now, it seems OK. I don't want to be like in the last state election when our party was always followed by the police which affected our campaign visit schedule.

Micheal Mering Jok, Secretary General of SCRIPS (Society for Rights Of Indigenous People Of Sarawak)
*Addressing Historical Injustices: Securing Land Rights for Sarawak's Indigenous People*
Michael Mering Jok feels surprised and perplexed by the fact that GPS Member of Parliament from Sri Aman, Sophia Brodie, earnestly applied to PMX for an allocation in the 2024 budget to conduct land measurements in NCR (Native Customary Rights) land in Sarawak. Firstly, this is incorrect because land falls under the jurisdiction of the state, and secondly, Sarawak itself possesses state funds amounting to RM30 billion, as Sarawak Premier Abang Johari has consistently boasted. Sophia Brodie should have urged the Premier to use these funds to complete the long-delayed land surveying for Sarawak residents. The issue of land measurement has been raised by GPS.
SCRIPS has already conducted land surveys for some longhouse residents in Sarawak, and this process is neither difficult nor expensive. The complexity arises when the GPS-led Sarawak government ventures into the interior regions and continues to survey land owned by villagers under Section 6. Section 6 surveys are conducted upon requests from Sarawak residents who do not possess land titles. They apply to the state government and are granted land with communal land status, which is utilized for a certain period of time. This type of land was allocated to Sarawakians who arrived in Sarawak after January 1, 1958, or after the formation of Malaysia. However, the Sarawak government should not survey the land belonging to our indigenous people who have inhabited the island of Borneo for hundreds of years prior to the arrival of the Brooks administration. In cases like these, the government should measure our land using Section 18, granting us ownership titles to our ancestral land. I request the GPS Sarawak administration to rectify this land ownership policy, as it is unfair and infringes upon the rights of our indigenous people.

Baru Bian, Member of the Bakelalan State Legislative Assembly- Sarawak
*The Sarawak government does not want to give land ownership rights to the people of Sarawak*
Baru Bian gave a response regarding the request of Sri Aman MP (Doris Sophia Brodie) - asking that in the 2024 budget be allocated to measure NCR land in Sarawak. According to Baru Bian, land matters are the jurisdiction of the state. The Federation is not responsible for land measurement matters. But if allocated, that's a bonus. However, according to Baru Bian, some political games by GPS caused land surveying in Sarawak to be unsuccessful until now. First, the people request that their NCR land be measured under sec 18 of the Sarawak land code. This makes the land privately owned and owned forever. However, the state government's policy so far has only been to measure land under sec 6. The NCR land is reclassified as government land and the government gives the land to be lent for use for a certain period of time to those who apply. This is why the majority of NCR land owners in Sarawak do not want their land to be measured. Because their land automatically becomes government property when measured.
According to Baru Bian- the Sarawak government has the ability to carry out NCR land surveying in Sarawak, without waiting for allocations from the federal government. The Sarawak government has strong finances. What needs to be done is to provide sufficient and continuous allocation through the state budget to measure NCR land. The reality of what is happening now is that the Sarawak government does not want to give land ownership rights to the people of Sarawak. On the other hand, through the speech of the Sri Aman MP in Parliament, it seems that PMX is acting tyrannically against NCR land owners in Sarawak. In fact, GPS is the worst.

Kulleh Selong, Residents of Belaga
*Outrage in Sungai Asap: Overloaded Lorries Damage Roads and Raise Concerns*
Kulleh complained that the Belaga-Bakun-Bintulu road was badly damaged due to the activities of palm oil lorry drivers and log lorries carrying excessive loads. According to Kulleh, many complaints with photos have been given to the authorities. However, no strict action was taken against these drivers. Even more unfortunate is the palm oil lorry driver who carries the extra load - the majority of them are Indonesian foreign workers. This seems to confirm the interior minister's statement in today's press conference that there are employers who misuse work permits. According to Kulleh, there are indeed JPJ making obstacles. But they don't fine or arrest drivers without a driver's license. My question - why?. This question can only be answered by the authorities. Today the conversation went viral in a wsap group. Believed to happen in Bakun Sungai Asap. That operational information by JPJ - to create roadblocks. To arrest and detain these unlicensed and overloaded drivers. Has been leaked and known by drivers and employers. The scheduled roadblock is said to be held on 18 to 21 Oct 2023. Residents in the Bakun Sungai Asap area are worried about their safety and complain that the road is badly damaged as a result of this activity. They requested that the authorities enforce the rules more strictly. Residents also question why local workers are not given the opportunity to drive lorries, they have the skills, have a driving license and have a sense of responsibility to take care of safety when on the road</itunes:summary>

*Empowering Local Communities: The Need for Transparency in Subsidy Programs*
John Bara, a government supporter, expressed his contentment when PMX announced a civilian budget of RM393.8 billion. However, he had doubts about certain aspects of the budget. Firstly, he questioned the allocation of substantial subsidies to rural residents, particularly the RM225 million designated for financing the transportation costs of essential food items to rural areas in Sabah and Sarawak. He believed that this allocation might not be executed smoothly and proposed the establishment of a community watch team to monitor and report any potential misappropriation of this subsidy. Additionally, he suggested that retail stores participating in this program should display signboards to help consumers identify stores selling subsidized goods with government-regulated prices.
Secondly, John Bara expressed concern that the government did not appear to be genuinely focused on assisting farmers and rice growers in rural areas, specifically in Baram, where there are rice planting projects in Long Atun and a paddy field scheme in Ulu Tinjar, managed by the local community. He stressed the need for support in the form of machinery, multi-grain rice seeds, advanced agricultural technology, and, most importantly, improved road infrastructure to access the rice growing areas. John emphasized that substantial investment in agricultural infrastructure projects was crucial for Sarawak to become self-sufficient in rice production.
Regarding Sarawak Premier Abang Johari's speech at the UN special convention, in which he mentioned that by 2030 there would be no more rural areas in Sarawak due to improved infrastructure, John advised the Premier to prioritize action before making grand statements. He believed that the government should substantiate its plans with tangible results on the ground.
John Bara also mentioned that his wife's village in Long Loyang had never received government-subsidized goods and expressed hope that during Madani's administration, they would benefit from more affordable subsidized goods.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Sarawak PKR Communications Director
*Subsidy Allocation Concerns: Are the Target Groups Receiving the Benefits?*
Dennis thinks that PMX Anwar Ibrahim is really trying to take advantage of the 2024 budget to lift the people's economy - especially the poor. Out of the total budget of RM393.8 billion, RM81 billion is allocated for subsidizing the lower class. My question is does the subsidy reach the target group? asked Dennis. According to Dennis in the 2023 budget and the 2024 budget, RM225 million each (each year) is allocated to finance the cost of distributing basic necessities such as petrol, LPG, flour, rice and cooking oil to rural and rural areas under the Community Drumming - Sabah program and Sarawak. However, Penan residents in Long Tungan in Baram, Berawan people in Batu Bungan Mulu and Penan Murum in Metalun did not get the subsidized goods. My question is where did the subsidized goods go? Is it stolen, hidden or misused. There is information that we heard, these items are sold to Indonesian workers in oil palm plantations. I request this matter to be investigated - Said Dennis.
The second thing that caught my attention is the allocation to the Peninsular Orang Asli community of a total of RM305 in 2023 and in this year an increase of RM333 million. According to the description by PMX, this allocation is to implement socioeconomic development, infrastructure in Orang Asli villages and the provision of social assistance. For these two years alone, the allocation for the Orang Asli community totals RM638 million. Just apply to PMX and the finance ministry. We the Asal people in Sarawak, including the Penan, are equally backward and poor like the Orang Asli people in Peninsular Malaysia. We should also be given similar provisions. I appeal to PMX as finance minister, there is no time for research and reasons. We want a similar provision. In fact, the Penan people in Sarawak are far behind in many aspects of life - just like the Orang Asli of the Peninsula. I want this to be fixed and corrected.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*Controversy or Cooperation? Examining the Consequences of MPs' Support for PMX Anwar*
In an interview with Time Magazine that was published online yesterday, PMX Anwar Ibrahim confirmed that there was indeed an offer to the PAS party to join his administration - right from the start. However, the basic condition is that PAS must agree with PH's main policy conditions/basic policies. Until now the offer to the PAS party is still open. 
Iswardy thinks - Anwar puts the interests of the country more than differences in political ideology. What has been separating PAS and PH. However, PAS support is important to get more than two-thirds support. Imagine if the 2024 budget is passed with the support of a large majority. So it will give confidence to investors and the business community - domestic and foreign. Now - the decline in the value of the ringgit, one of the factors is the ongoing political strife and instability. Apart from that, if PAS agrees to support PMX. It will weaken PPBM (Bersatu party), as well as weaken the opposition. 
In addition, yesterday several MPs expressed open support for PMX - among them is Kuala Kangsar MP - Iskandar Dzulkarnian Abdul Khalid. It is expected that between 3 to 5 more members of parliament from PAS and PPBM will do so. According to them- the support is to enable larger allocations to be channeled to their areas. Is this a misuse of power by PMX or have the parliamentarians involved violated the anti-party jumping act? It is up to the respective parties to act if they feel their MPs are violating party discipline and directives. 
PMX has since the beginning offered allocations to opposition MPs, as long as they submit applications to him, without having to leave the party or express support for him. 
Regarding the progress of the toilet upgrading and maintenance project in Sarawak. So far there is a district whose progress is 0%. Iswardy thinks, The central government has channeled all allocations to district offices throughout Sarawak, But they have failed to implement it. If the progress in schools in the peninsula has exceeded 90%, the autonomy of Sarawak seems to slow down the implementation of the project. The Sarawak government should prove it. When given autonomy, they can implement projects faster than in peninsular Malaysia. Is the GPS Sarawak government playing politics with PMX?</itunes:summary>

*The Future of TYT Sarawak: Who Should Hold the Position?*
Astana State of Sarawak announced that all events celebrating the birthday of TYT Sarawak Taib Mahmud have been postponed. According to John- TYT's birthday celebration is traditionally a big celebration. Massive celebrations in big cities, parades, parades, TYT speeches and awarding of ranks and greatness. But because Taib is not well, this is all postponed. According to John Taib, he should be dismissed on the grounds that he is old and unwell. Taib has also held the position of TYT for a long time. This is to launch the state administration. It was asked if the candidate was considered worthy and if TYT should be from among politicians. John thinks TYT should not be based on politics. Anyone who has contributed services to the state and country, is honest, has integrity and is healthy. Eligible to be TYT. TYT also said that Dayak people should be given space and opportunities. Because there have been 7 TYT people in the past - all of them from the Malay/Melanau community. Indeed, we cannot determine who should be the Chief Minister - because it depends on the majority of seats in the state legislative assembly. But the position of TYT is open to anyone who has an excellent service record. It should now be the turn of the Dayaks. In order to create a balance. Premier from the Malay/Melanau community. TYT should be from Dayak or even China. It is better TYT from among non-politicians. There are politicians who want to become TYT to get immunity from the law. According to John-Temenggong, a prof or any excellent government official can be appointed as the next TYT Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

Gereng Jadum, The Penan tribe that lives in the Murum resettlement area.
*Resettlement Woes: The Impact of Dam Construction on the Penan People*
Gereng Jadum is the father of 6 children who are still in school. He and his wife were moved to the Murum resettlement area in 2014, to make way for the construction of the Murum hydro-electric dam. He shared the pain of life due to the recent increase in the price of rice. According to Gereng, it was reported on TV that the price of rice in peninsular Malaysia is around RM26 to RM31 for a 10kg pack. But in our place here the price is around RM36 to RM43 depending on the type. For us this is very expensive, as if buying gold. For 4 years after being moved here. We are given monthly assistance of RM850 per family to buy daily necessities. But since 2018, the aid has been stopped and now we are working with the nearby oil palm plantations for survival.

We have never been able to buy basic necessities whose transportation costs have been subsidized by the government under the essential goods distribution program, LPG and the price standardization program in the 2023 budget at a cost of RM200 million. Our life here is much poorer than our old settlement in Sungai Murum. Here we start it all, but nothing has succeeded yet. We do not agree with the government's plan to build more dams in Sarawak. Because it really affects our lives. The government does profit from selling electricity. But who felt the bad effects of us. Gereng expressed his feelings following the government's decision to sell electricity to Singapore. We Penan people always want to report our problems to the government.

Gereng Jadum, The Penan tribe that lives in the Murum resettlement area.
*Resettlement Woes: The Impact of Dam Construction on the Penan People*
Gereng Jadum is the father of 6 children who are still in school. He and his wife were moved to the Murum resettlement area in 2014, to make way for the construction of the Murum hydro-electric dam. He shared the pain of life due to the recent increase in the price of rice. According to Gereng, it was reported on TV that the price of rice in peninsular Malaysia is around RM26 to RM31 for a 10kg pack. But in our place here the price is around RM36 to RM43 depending on the type. For us this is very expensive, as if buying gold. For 4 years after being moved here. We are given monthly assistance of RM850 per family to buy daily necessities. But since 2018, the aid has been stopped and now we are working with the nearby oil palm plantations for survival. We buy rice, cooking oil and other necessities at grocery stores in oil palm plantations. We have never been able to buy basic necessities whose transportation costs have been subsidized by the government under the essential goods distribution program, LPG and the price standardization program in the 2023 budget at a cost of RM200 million. Our life here is much poorer than our old settlement in Sungai Murum. Here we start it all, but nothing has succeeded yet. We do not agree with the government's plan to build more dams in Sarawak. Because it really affects our lives. The government does profit from selling electricity. But who felt the bad effects of us.

*Rural Price Disparities: Long Tungan's Struggle for Affordable Goods*
To get to long Tungan, you have to travel by land using a four-wheel drive 4X4, which takes 8 hours from Miri city. According to Dom, the price of rice, flour, cooking oil and other daily necessities is RM10 more expensive than the price in MIRI town. We have never obtained subsidized prices or enjoyed the goods transported using the necessary goods distribution program, LPG and the price standardization program through the 2023 budget. All our necessary goods, we buy and transport ourselves. This is what makes it expensive in the hinterland. According to the 2023 budget, more than RM200 million will be allocated for the cost of transportation and distribution of basic necessities to the interior. Dom claimed that the village of Long Tungan had never obtained sunsidi price goods. He requested that the government and delivery contractors be transparent about this matter. Regarding the potential of Sarawak as a rice producing state. This cannot be denied. Since the 1980s, we in Long Tungan have been cultivating paddy fields and received little help from the government. But the aid has been stopped. But if it is reactivated and supplied with quality seeds, irrigation, modern agricultural technology and the latest agricultural infrastructure. It is not impossible that the desire to make Sarawak a paddy/rice producing state will be achieved. Because the people in my village do have skills in agriculture - said Dom. Now we grow hill paddy on a small scale for self-sufficiency.

MR. J, Environmental activist from Sabah.
*Sabahans Demand Answers: The Hidden Agenda Behind the NCA*
(Want to be known as Mr. J only to avoid pressure from Sabah authorities)
Mr. J explained about the struggle of the people of Sabah against the one-sided Nature Conservation Agreement (NCA). There are parties trying to sabotage the NCA, according to Sabah deputy chief minister - Jeffery Kitingan. But according to Mr. A. The people of Sabah have the right to protest because the NCA is not transparent and is not presented or discussed in the Sabah state assembly. How can we agree to lease 2 million hectares of land (half the area of Sabah) to a foreign company from Singapore (Hock Standard). This company has no record and expertise. This is a RM2 company said Mr.J. In addition, the agreement period is 100 years. For us Sabahans. The government's action through the NCA is rash. Maybe to make a quick profit for yourself, without thinking about the long-term negative impact on the people of Sabah. We Sabahans want detailed information, how this carbon credit business is worked. Some say it is through reforestation? Or is there any party involved taking advantage through this agreement to log and remove our rights to the forest, asked Mr.J. For now the agreement is postponed but we have made a police report, a report to the MACC and have written a protest letter to the Sabah state government. If carbon trading is really profitable. The people should be involved in decision-making and the agreement should be transparent and discussed in the Sabah State Assembly.</itunes:summary>

*Questions Raised Over Dam Policies: The Case of Sungai Musah Bridge Collapse*
According to Chong - PH Sarawak will meet next week and will decide whether to field a candidate in the Jepak by-election or not. But traditionally the Jepak seat is reserved for PKR. PKR should have made a decision first. For now PBB/GPS, Aspirasi and PBK-Parti Bumi Kenyalang announced that they will compete in the Jepak by-election, this November. Chong explained that the collapse of the Sungai Musah bridge in Song is very surprising and troubling. He will insist that a full report be given by the public works minister in next week's parliamentary session. The RM55 million bridge collapsed after it was completed 9 years ago. The authorities have appointed consultants to study the exact cause of the collapse of the bridge. While the GPS Sarawak government's policy to build more hydro dams is an effort to obtain clean, renewable energy. Clean and renewable energy is attracting investors around the world. But His question is, will it benefit the people where the dam is built and building a hydro dam to get electricity and selling it abroad is a less wise move. This excess energy should be for the benefit of the population and the progress of our own state and country. Not for sale - Chong said.

Dennis Hang, Activist from Murum
*Living Downstream: Residents' Worries About Bakun Dam Safety*
Dennis Hung, a resident living downstream of the Bakun Dam, has expressed the need for authorities to immediately address the issues surrounding the Bakun Dam. He emphasized that it is not a political matter, and people should not deflect blame or accuse each other; instead, they should take swift action to resolve the problems.
He stated that their community is directly impacted by the Bakun Dam and should receive timely alerts and information from Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB) and the relevant authorities. Authorities should inform them about safety Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), including evacuation procedures in the event of a dam collapse. However, even these basic warnings and training have not been provided.
They are a community living downstream of the Bakun Dam, and if a collapse were to occur, there would be only seconds or minutes to react. Where would they escape to?
Even in China, a leader in dam construction, dam collapse issues have arisen. Furthermore, concerns have persistently surrounded Malaysia's engineering projects.
Regarding the proposed construction of a dam in Baram, Dennis Hung stressed the importance of an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report. He noted that the construction of the Bakun Dam and the Murum Dam proceeded without proper consideration of EIA reports, which assess the social and environmental aspects of whether a dam should be built. These reports were disregarded, as were the objections of the local communities. Additionally, the conditions promised by the government after persuading the people to support dam construction were seen as deceptive.
He advised the people of Baram to exercise caution in their approach to the dam project.

Dennis Along- Chairman of the Miri Tering Association and PKR Baram communications director
*Controversy Surrounds Baram Hydro-Electric Dam: Indigenous Voices Speak Out*
In a recent announcement at the Baram Regatta's opening speech, Sarawak Premier Abang Johari revealed plans for the Baram hydro-electric dam. This move has sparked controversy, drawing criticism from Dennis Along, Chairman of the Miri Tering Association and PKR Baram communications director.
Dennis Along argues that the government, particularly the GPS administration, has shown pride and arrogance by pushing ahead with the project without consulting local communities, despite historical opposition to the dam.
The people of Baram have valid reasons for their protests. They've seen the negative impacts of hydro dam projects in other regions, including displacement, inadequate services, and fear of structural failures downstream.
Dennis Along believes that the Baram dam, like previous projects, won't benefit indigenous people but will serve GPS-associated interests. He emphasizes that preserving ancestral lands and forests is essential.
This controversy highlights the need for inclusive decision-making that considers the welfare of affected communities. Indigenous voices, like Dennis Along's, advocate for a fair and sustainable future.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along- Chairman of the Miri Tering Association and PKR Baram communications director
*Controversy Surrounds Baram Hydro-Electric Dam: Indigenous Voices Speak Out*
In a recent announcement at the Baram Regatta's opening speech, Sarawak Premier Abang Johari revealed plans for the Baram hydro-electric dam. This move has sparked controversy, drawing criticism from Dennis Along, Chairman of the Miri Tering Association and PKR Baram communications director.
Dennis Along argues that the government, particularly the GPS administration, has shown pride and arrogance by pushing ahead with the project without consulting local communities, despite historical opposition to the dam.
The people of Baram have valid reasons for their protests. They've seen the negative impacts of hydro dam projects in other regions, including displacement, inadequate services, and fear of structural failures downstream.
Dennis Along believes that the Baram dam, like previous projects, won't benefit indigenous people but will serve GPS-associated interests. He emphasizes that preserving ancestral lands and forests is essential.
This controversy highlights the need for inclusive decision-making that considers the welfare of affected communities. Indigenous voices, like Dennis Along's, advocate for a fair and sustainable future.</description>

Peter Kalang, Chairman of Save Rivers Network
*Risks of Dam Collapse: Bakun Dam Among 8 Dams at Risk in Malaysia*
Peter Kalang  giving feedback regarding media reports published yesterday - stated that 8 dams in Malaysia are at risk of threatening the safety of the population. In the list, the Bakun dam in Belaga Sarawak is listed as a threat to the safety of the population. This report was issued by the Flying Squad Inspection Team - Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change. Peter thinks- it is a report that should be taken seriously by the government. The government of Malaysia and Sarawak should take note of the collapse of 2 dams in the city of Derna (Libya) last September 2023. According to Peter, the Bakun and Murum dams are located in heavy rain zones every year. That is around 3,300 to 3800 mm per year. In such a situation, the ability of the dam to hold a large amount of water is of great concern. Following the Sarawak government's plan to build more hydro dams in Sarawak, including in Baram, to get revenue from the sale of electricity. This is an inaccurate idea. The construction of dams only benefits a few parties. The construction of the dam also required high costs and the government had to go into debt to make it successful. This is certainly not beneficial to the rural population. Peter Kalang and friends are ready to meet with the Premier of Sarawak - A. Johari to present a more constructive view on how to improve the socio-economic status of the rural population without having to build dams or damage the environment.

*Baram's Opposition to Dam Construction: Challenging Premier A. Johari's Proposed Cascading Dam*
In a speech during the inauguration of the Baram Regatta on the banks of Marudi. Sarawak Premier A. Johari stated that the Sarawak government is planning to build a hydro-electric dam in Baram. A lot of electricity can be sold to countries in the Asian region and at the same time can prevent the increase in the crocodile population. According to Premier A. Johari, the construction of many roads in Sarawak has caused not many people to use waterways. So the crocodile population increased. 
According to Peter - A. Johari's statement that the crocodile population is increasing is not supported by any research. While the large amount of electricity does not help to improve the socioeconomics of the people who are victims of dams such as in Bakun and in Murum. Indeed, hydroelectricity will bring a lot of revenue for SEB, construction contractors and the state government. But the displaced people continue to be poor, and even the majority of the people in Bakun do not have electricity until today. Hydro dams have been proven to pollute the environment by logging, releasing methane gas and submerging large areas of land. Social and cultural impact, people are driven from their original residence. Premier A. Johari proposed cascading dam. According to Peter, whatever form the dam takes, it is still dangerous and pollutes the environment. We the people of Baram do not agree and we will oppose any effort to build a dam in Baram. We are now working to build a UBFA that gives great hope to the residents to care for and conserve the environment.

*UBFA's Ambitious 300,000 Hectare Program: A Two-Phase Approach*
UBFA will start a program on 300 thousand hectares of land next year. In 2 phases. The first phase is the study of forest resources for life and economy. Funds donated by Basel City amounting to -USD 250K and from BMF USD 250K. While the second phase involves the construction of community projects. Funds donated by the Japanese government. Asked why there are still active logging licenses in the gazetted area for UBFA. According to Peter, logging will be monitored by ITTO- with strict certification and also monitored by the local community who have formed a monitoring committee trained to make reports if there is unethical logging. In addition to that, the project includes agroforestry - tree planting, coffee cultivation and animal husbandry that is suitable for the environment. Peter hopes that the program runs smoothly and benefits all the people involved such as the Saben, Kelabit, Kenyah and Penan. This project is concerned with sustainable forest preservation and human rights.

*Penan Peace Park: A Journey to Halt Logging and Restore the Forest*
Nick Kelesau, the spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization, explained that a recent trip was made to Ulu Baram to inform the villages involved in the Ulu Baram Forest Area (UBFA), previously known as the "Penan Peace Park," about the upcoming project's commencement. Before departing for Long Semiang, a group meeting took place at the Pullman Hotel Miri. The participants included Save Rivers, BMF, Samling, Keruan, Forest Department, Land and Survey Department, District and Resident Officers, as well as state government representatives. All parties were informed that a preliminary study for the Penan Peace Park would begin next year, and cooperation from all stakeholders was requested. A steering committee was established during this meeting.
However, Nick expressed surprise that the logging license status in the area remained active. The Forest Department insisted that any logging conducted must have approval from the villagers. Nick's perspective was clear: he advocated for a complete cessation of logging, with a call for the revocation of Samling's logging license. According to Nick, only the Pulong Tau area remained unlogged, while other areas within the UBFA, such as Ulu Sungai Akah, Ulu Sungai Silat, and Ulu Selungo, had already seen high-value timber being harvested.
Nick urged all involved parties to provide financial support and expertise and to afford the Penan people the opportunity to replant trees with native species. Their goal was to restore the forest, and they expressed confidence in their ability to succeed. Notably, they already had nurseries established in Long Kerong and Long Lamai, ready for tree planting. Additionally, they made a formal request to the Sarawak government to cancel Samling's logging license in UBFA.

Baru Bian, Member of the Bakelalan State Assembly
*Sarawak's right to the Sea Territory should be returned*
In conjunction with the 60th Malaysia Day celebration - which is still celebrated throughout the state of Sarawak. Baru Bian urged Sarawakians to be more aware of their rights. Although every year the Sarawak government has received increasing SST tax revenue from PETRONAS (up to August this year 13 billion), but Sarawak's right to the ocean and continental shelf must be returned. As such, Baru Bian urged the GPS Sarawak government to take the case to the high court to challenge the Petroleum Development Act 1974, the Continental Shelf Act 1966 and the maritime domain act 2012 which limit Sarawak's rights to only about 12 nautical miles from the coast. This does not mean that Sarawak is not satisfied with the amount of SST collected so far. But it is a responsibility to determine whether the acts involved are valid or not. After all, the acts involved were made during a state of emergency, and now the country is no longer in a state of emergency. According to Baru Bian when Adenan Satem was the chief minister of Sarawak. The motion to challenge these acts was approved 100% in the Sarawak State Assembly. So there is no reason why it should not continue. The people of Sarawak have more rights than just receiving SST every year. But Sarawak's sovereignty must be restored.

Baru Bian, Member of the Bakelalan State Assembly
*Sarawak's right to the Sea Territory should be returned*
In conjunction with the 60th Malaysia Day celebration - which is still celebrated throughout the state of Sarawak. Baru Bian urged Sarawakians to be more aware of their rights. Although every year the Sarawak government has received increasing SST tax revenue from PETRONAS (up to August this year 13 billion), but Sarawak's right to the ocean and continental shelf must be returned. As such, Baru Bian urged the GPS Sarawak government to take the case to the high court to challenge the Petroleum Development Act 1974, the Continental Shelf Act 1966 and the maritime domain act 2012 which limit Sarawak's rights to only about 12 nautical miles from the coast. This does not mean that Sarawak is not satisfied with the amount of SST collected so far. But it is a responsibility to determine whether the acts involved are valid or not. After all, the acts involved were made during a state of emergency, and now the country is no longer in a state of emergency. According to Baru Bian when Adenan Satem was the chief minister of Sarawak. The motion to challenge these acts was approved 100% in the Sarawak State Assembly. So there is no reason why it should not continue. The people of Sarawak have more rights than just receiving SST every year. But Sarawak's sovereignty must be restored.

Iswardy Morni, Sarawak Political Analyst
*Sarawak Future Wealth Fund - Free the Sarawakian People from Extreme Poverty First*
Iswardy thinks that PH should field a candidate to oppose GPS in the Jepak State Assembly Election. This is because there is no cooperation of the unity government at the state level. But if PH does not have strength and a competent candidate. It's good that you don't need to place a candidate. Because it only shows weakness to the opponent. PH Sarawak. In particular, PKR must build strength before facing the 13th PRN- Sarawak in 2026. Whatever the outcome of the PKR nomination in Jepak will be determined by the MPP-PKR Political Bureau on 8 October 2023.
The Premier of Sarawak announced that the Sarawak Future Wealth Fund will operate from January 2024 with an Initial Fund of 8 billion ringgit. The objective of this fund is for investment - with the target of maximum profit for the future of Sarawak's children. According to Iswardy, oil producing countries. The majority have such funds. Because in the future oil and gas yields will run out or decrease. But the question now is, has Sarawak solved the basic infrastructure problem for the convenience of the people? Has the Sarawak government succeeded in eradicating extreme poverty in Sarawak? Selangor with a total population of 6 million people is able to provide 65 Selangor Citizen Care Initiative Schemes with only a state budget of RM2.45 billion in 2023. While Sarawak with a 2023 budget of -RM10,797, the population is only 3 million. Not able to provide schemes for the convenience of the people and not able to eradicate severe poverty in Sarawak. Sarawak's real problem according to Iswardy- poor governance, leaks and leaks, inaccurate priorities. As long as GPS political leaders are not changed. As long as that, Sarawak will continue to fail to eradicate poverty.

Baru Bian, Member of the Bakelalan State Legislative Assembly, Sarawak
*The Importance of Public Debate in Sarawak's Project Prioritization*
The allocation of RM331 this year - to upgrade and maintain log roads to rural villages is a ridiculous act. Baru Bian thinks that. As long as this log road is still used for logging activities - it is the responsibility of the company involved to repair or maintain the road (the government cannot provide allocations). But the government can take over these wooden roads and upgrade them when they have been abandoned or are no longer used by the timber concession companies. According to Baru Bian, there is an allocation under MARRIS every year by the federal government to improve state roads. But it does not include log roads. If MARRIS allocations are used to upgrade log roads, it is a wrong move.
According to Baru Bian, the Sarawak state assembly meets twice a year. But if there are emergency matters, then the Speaker can call a special conference. The frequency of meetings for now, is still reasonable - according to Baru Bian. But what is more important for Baru Bian is filling the conference time. Each proposed project must go through a debate first in the DUN. And projects of people's needs should be a priority. Just gave an example of the RM5 billion ART project. It should be RM5 billion to build a road to the interior which is more urgent. Not ART RM5 billion. But the Premier of Sarawak Sarawak often prioritizes projects that are the favorite of the government. Baru Bian thinks that the Sarawak Government is able to provide initial allocations to prepare large-scale agricultural areas (Rice Plantation) without having to wait for a budget from the central government. Sarawak's state budget last year was more than 11 billion ringgit and is expected to continue to increase this year. Baru Bian criticized the Sarawak Premier who expected the federal government to provide RM1 billion to build drainage and water lines for the rice planting project in Banting-Sri Aman. While the RM5 billion ART project, the Premier does not need to wait for the budget from the federal government.</itunes:summary>

*Penan Siblings Released After Blockade Standoff with Shin Yang Logging Company*
Four siblings (1 female and 3 male) from Long Liwok Baram village were locked up for 4 days in Marudi prison for allegedly setting up a blockade to prevent the operation of the Shin Yang logging company. They were accused in court under section 341 of the penal code. But they were successfully released by human rights lawyer and customary land lawyer Roland Engan. According to Siri (the youngest) the accusations against them are purely fabricated. They set up a blockade after dozens of their requests for Shin Yang's company to repair the road to their village were ignored. Finally we set up the Blockade. But Shin Yang's side took the opportunity to charge us with accusations designed to intimidate us. But we will not succumb to all this pressure. And we will continue to fight. The logging company should have prepared the road to our village after they made millions of ringgit in profit. Similarly, the government should build a permanent road (not a log road) to our village. We want logging to stop or have to comply with the proper FMU. We thank Roland Engan and Radio Free Sarawak for supporting and carrying our voice.

*Abang Johari's Bold Claims: Fact or Fiction?*
Regarding the exaggerated speech of the Premier of Sarawak claiming that Sarawak is ahead of the federal government in many sectors such as Green Hydrogen, Renewable Energy, Carbon Trading and ART/EV. Premier Abang Johari's attitude and speaking style are childish. Abang Johari is known as a big-talking leader. While what Prime Minister Abang Johari said is still at the planning and pilot project stage. What will happen if what is planned is not what is expected? Abang Johari will be humiliated.
John also comment that PH/Sarawak Opposition should take the opportunity to compete in the upcoming Jepak state by-election. It is the best opportunity for the Sarawak opposition to raise the issues of GPS governance weakness in Sarawak. It is also an opportunity for the opposition to expose the waste of GPS on mega projects that only benefit their cronies. But according to John. If PH does not contest, PBDS is ready to field a candidate to challenge GPS. 
John insists, whatever the case may be. PH/Opposition should overthrow the GPS hypocracy through Jepak state assembly by-elections.

Boyce Ngau Anyie, Baram Resident from Long Selawan
*Samling withdrew the 5 million defamation suit against Save Rivers, a moral victory for the indigenous people*
Boyce suggested that the government start building permanent roads using the allocation (upgrading log roads every year) to villages throughout the interior of Sarawak. We already know that log roads are temporary roads that can be damaged at any time due to rain, flood or erosion. It would be a waste if the government continues to allocate large sums of money for roads that cannot be used for a long period of time. So the answer to this problem is that permanent roads to the villages are developed in phases.
Samling Playwood withdrawing the defamation suit against SAVE RIVERS is a moral boost for all the people of Baram. It is the second victory after the people of Baram managed to prevent the construction of the Baram Dam 6 years ago. The effect of the cancellation of the suit is. Samling cannot log in the Baram population area (Gerenai Area) unless permission is obtained from the local population. Actually according to Boyce Ngau Anyie- The suit was filed by Samling to silence the villagers. But because of the close union. Villagers in Baram managed to defend their forest from encroachment.

Boyce Ngau Anyie, Baram Resident from Long Selawan
*Samling withdrew the 5 million defamation suit against Save Rivers, a moral victory for the indigenous people*
Boyce suggested that the government start building permanent roads using the allocation (upgrading log roads every year) to villages throughout the interior of Sarawak. We already know that log roads are temporary roads that can be damaged at any time due to rain, flood or erosion. It would be a waste if the government continues to allocate large sums of money for roads that cannot be used for a long period of time. So the answer to this problem is that permanent roads to the villages are developed in phases.
Samling Playwood withdrawing the defamation suit against SAVE RIVERS is a moral boost for all the people of Baram. It is the second victory after the people of Baram managed to prevent the construction of the Baram Dam 6 years ago. The effect of the cancellation of the suit is. Samling cannot log in the Baram population area (Gerenai Area) unless permission is obtained from the local population. Actually according to Boyce Ngau Anyie- The suit was filed by Samling to silence the villagers. But because of the close union. Villagers in Baram managed to defend their forest from encroachment.

Richard Engan, Resident of Long Terawan Mulu Baram
*We want Paved Roads, Not Log Roads*
The announcement of an allocation of RM331 million to upgrade and maintain log roads in Sarawak is unnecessary and a waste. Richard said Reluctantly.
On Sept 18, 2023, Deputy Prime Minister Zahid Hamidi announced the allocation and the upgrade and maintenance process should be completed before Christmas 2023. This is an act that wastes people's money. According to Richard, every year hundreds of millions are announced for upgrades and maintenance. But we residents of Baram do not see any log roads being upgraded. There are no signs erected indicating the existence of log road upgrading works. This is a waste and this action is as if the government is giving free money to logging companies. This practice should be stopped - Said Richard. The government should not spend money to repair the log roads. The logging company itself should take responsibility for maintaining all logging roads in Sarawak for the convenience of the rural population. The reason is that all these logging companies have been making excessive profits - for the past decades. Now is not the time to force the rural residents to continue using log roads, instead the government should start now to build paved roads into villages throughout Sarawak.

According to Dennis, Save Rivers' victory over Samling today shows that. The giant logging companies can be defeated by the villagers, if we are brave, smart and true. Just like the story in the bible "David vs Goliath". Who would have thought that Samling could be defeated today - Dennis said. The moral of this case- That the Natives in Sarawak can defend their land and forest through the right way in court. Dennis thanked the lawyer representing Save Rivers- Simon Siah and Dennis also thanked Peter Kalang for always fighting for the people of Baram. We at RFS have not yet managed to get a comment from Save Rivers and Lawyer Simon Siah. We understand that the parties involved are not allowed to issue statements, which is part of the terms of the settlement.

*Why Sarawak Resists Dam Projects: Lessons from Libya*
The devastating floods in Derna, Libya, and the collapse of two dams in Wadi Derna have highlighted the risks associated with dam construction. These dams, built in the 1970s to prevent floods, failed during the disaster, raising concerns about similar risks in other areas, including Sarawak.
the Libya dam disaster serves as a cautionary tale, shedding light on various risks associated with dam construction, including threats to lives, property, society, culture, and politics. Consequently, interior populations may harbor reservations about further dam construction, particularly if they doubt the government's ability to effectively manage these projects.

Thomas Jalong, environmental activist from Baram
*Putting an End to Dam Construction in Sarawak*
Premier Abang Johari Openg has highlighted Sarawak's potential to generate 20,000 megawatts (MW) of hydropower through the construction of additional dams, facilitating electricity export. Currently, Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB) owns Bakum, Murum, and Batang Ai dams, with the Baleh dam under construction, set to produce 1,285 megawatts and be operational by 2027. SEB is already exporting electricity to West Kalimantan, Indonesia, and aims to export to Sabah by 2024.
In response, Thomas Jalong commented that whenever the Sarawak state government discusses power exports, the focus inevitably returns to large dams. Despite talks of alternative energy sources, the predominant recommendation remains centered on large dams.
Sarawak already possesses numerous large dams, including the forthcoming Baleh Dam. Despite this abundance, not all of Sarawak's regions have access to electricity, which is disheartening and concerning.
The dams proposed by GPS are primarily located in the interior river regions, where the local population relies on rivers and forests for their livelihoods. This is a matter that warrants our attention.
It is apparent that these proposed dams are primarily intended for electricity export to other countries rather than benefiting Sarawak's residents. This prioritizes economic interests over the well-being of the people.
Furthermore, this situation has garnered international attention due to the disruption and destruction of customary lands belonging to indigenous communities without their consent, causing severe environmental damage.
Thomas Jalong urges the public to remain informed about these issues and calls upon GPS to immediately cease the destruction of the interior forests and rivers, which are essential to the livelihoods of the interior communities. He implores them to halt further dam construction.</itunes:summary>

Nick Kelesau, Spokesperson for the Penan Keruan Organization, Baram
*Penan urges the GPS Gov to withdraw the MTCC certificate (FMU) and the Samling Logging license simultaneously*
Nick Kelesau praised MTCC's action in withdrawing one of the Samling certificates for the Ravenscourt Forest Management Unit (FMU) in Sarawak. This was done after Samling failed to prove corrective action through a previous audit. According to Nick all this time Penan made a blockade to protest the logging done by Samling. This is real proof that Penan does not want logging. We also demand that the government cancel the logging license given to Samling in our area (Ba Abang and Long Pakan). Since Samling logged in our area, our forest has been badly damaged. Our forest reserves were encroached upon, our food supply was affected and even worse, the good relations between the villagers were becoming strained. Residents can no longer pray in one church. There are villages that are arguing over the existence of two village head positions. Samling carried out a campaign to divide the villagers so that they would be easy to dominate. Nick wants all Samling logging licenses revoked and the Penan forest returned.

Gabril Atong, Long House Resident Punan Datah Ba (Downstream of Bakun Dam)
*Electricity Export vs. Local Needs : Unequal Access to Electricity*
The Sarawak government's plan to sell 1000 megawatts of electricity to Singapore will not affect domestic needs, said Sarawak Utilities and Telecommunications Minister Datuk Julaihi Narawi. Selling electricity to Singapore will be done through the construction of a 700 KM submarine cable. Gabril thinks that in terms of the long-term economy it is good, there is continuous income for the state and the country. But the question is, who is the government's priority GPS?. While the majority of residents downstream of the Bakun dam still do not have access to electricity, even though the Bakun dam has been generating electricity for more than 10 years. Rumah Panjang Punan Datah Ba is only 60 km away from the Bakun dam. The Sarawak government still fails to supply electricity to the population. According to Gabril, all these mega project plans were made to produce contracts worth billions of ringgit which were then given to GPS cronies. Their priority is not the people. Their priority is the GPS party and their cronies. For the record of Bakun dam 2400 MW, Murum 944 MW and Baleh 1285 MW and all 3 dams in the parliamentary area of Hulu Rajang This produces more than 4000 MW of electricity. But strangely, the people in this parliamentary area are categorized as the poorest.</itunes:summary>

John Bara, The most senior Baram PKR member
*PKR Baram's Call for Transparency and People's Rights in Sarawak*
John attended the Baram PKR Branch Annual General Meeting (MATC) on 9/9/2023. He shared some interesting things decided by PKR Baram. Among them, PKR Baram wants to cooperate with the GPS government in Sarawak. However, from what has been observed, GPS is reluctant to accept cooperation (Unity Government) at the state level. There are complaints that there are still longhouses that have not displayed the official photo of the prime minister in their longhouses/villages. There are also government offices in Sarawak that have not/do not display the official photo of the prime minister in government offices. PKR Baram requested that the complaint be accompanied by photographic evidence for further action. Both PKR Baram will oppose GPS in the Sarawak State election in all DUN seats in the upcoming 13th Sarawak PRN, in line with the recent statement by the Premier of Sarawak which stated that there is no seat negotiation with the unity government at the state level. PKR Baram is firm in this matter because all this time PKR Baram has realized that GPS Sarawak has many weaknesses and should be changed. In conjunction with MATC this time, PKR Baram held several forums. Among them is a forum entitled People's rights to determine their respective village heads and people's rights to a clean and healthy environment. PKR Baram is upset with the action of GPS interfering in the matter of the appointment of the village head. Taking the example of some Penan villages in Baram. The Village Head is appointed by the GPS even though in the meeting in the village the majority of the residents have other options. PKR Baram believes that Orang Asal are efficient forest owners and custodians. So Baram PKR urges the government to give a carbon trading license to every longhouse that owns a large NCR land in Baram.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, PKR Baram Communications Director
*Injustice in Sarawak: The Fight Against the Carbon Trading Bill*
Sarawak's Deputy Minister of Energy and Environmental Sustainability, Dr. Hazland Abang Hipni said that only owners of NCR land that have been gazetted are eligible for a carbon trading license. According to Dennis- this is GPS's tactic of denying the rights of the Natives and Dayaks of Sarawak to be involved in an industry worth billions of ringgit. Throughout Baram, Apoh-Tutoh, Marudi up to Mulu. Not a single acre of Baram residents' NCR land is gazetted. On the other hand, logging companies that destroy the environment (Samling) are given a carbon trading license by the GPS Sarawak Government. Dennis urged the people of Sarawak to realize that since the beginning the policy of the Sarawak BN government and now the GPS is pressuring the Indigenous/Dayak people to remain poor so that they are easy to manipulate. Dennis asked the public to protest the Carbon trading and Land Affairs Bill that will be tabled in the Sarawak state assembly this November. Which it will definitely not favor the Dayak people. For 60 years the Orang Asal/Dayak have been pleading for their NCR land to be gazetted and given a title deed. However, this request could not be fulfilled by the GPS Sarawak government. On the other hand, PL and logging concessions of hundreds of hectares were given to foreigners who came from Sibu, Miri, Bintulu, Kuching and even some companies from Malaya were also given PL.

*The Governor (TYT) should be healthy and emulate the King. Taib Mahmud had to withdraw due to health problems*
Visit of the King and Queen in the Borneo Tour which started in Sabah on Sept 3 and ended in Sarawak on Sept 13 at Telok Melano. While in Sabah (Liwagu River) - the King found that there was a bridge broken in two since 2019 that has not been repaired until today. The king will ask the prime minister to solve the problem immediately. This is the good thing when a King who has the soul of the people can go down to the field and understand the people's problems. Therefore - according to Dennis Along, if only TYT Sarawak Taib Mahmud - could do the same thing. This will help solve people's problems. In Baram, the Sungai Tutoh bridge has been cut off due to flooding for the past 3 years. Causing problems for thousands of Baram residents. So far not fixed. Bad and dangerous road problems, no electricity and water supply. Still shackles the people of Sarawak. Is this what the people of Sarawak should be proud of after 60 years of independence, asked Dennis. Therefore, I suggest that the Governor of Sarawak should be appointed from among people who are outside the political radar - so that they can act using humanitarian values. The governor must also be healthy and if possible still young so that he can carry out his duties well. Therefore, I request that the current Governor Taib Mahmud resign due to his poor health. The Sarawak government should act wisely, for the sake of the progress and good of the people of Sarawak.

Thomas Fann, chairperson of Bersih 2.0
*Protecting Judicial Integrity: A Call for Reform in Malaysia's Legal System*
Regarding Deputy Prime Minister Zahid Hamidi's corruption case, which saw him being discharged without an acquittal on all 47 corruption charges related to Yayasan Akalbudi, this has raised genuine concerns among Bersih and many Malaysians. We are questioning whether there might be political influence involved in this matter.
As we are aware, the Attorney General also serves as a public prosecutor under current laws. The Attorney General is appointed by the Prime Minister, which is a political appointment. This raises the question of whether the reasons provided by the deputy public prosecutor for needing more time to investigate the charges in Yayasan Akalbudi are valid. Furthermore, if there was not a thorough investigation conducted, why did the judge accept four years ago that there was prima facie evidence to proceed with the judgment? 
The fact that he was charged four years ago suggests that there was some basis for those charges. This raises concerns, especially in light of recent cases where individuals like Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and Najib Razak were acquitted. In Najib's case, the Attorney General's office failed to file an appeal, resulting in the acquittal of Nasir and Arul Kanda.
Our question is whether the Attorney General's chamber made a mistake or if these actions were deliberate. We have genuine concerns in this matter. Therefore, we propose the separation of the role of public prosecutor from the Attorney General's Chamber. This role should be played by an independent Attorney General, ensuring a fair and impartial legal process.</itunes:summary>

Our question is whether the Attorney General's chamber made a mistake or if these actions were deliberate. We have genuine concerns in this matter. Therefore, we propose the separation of the role of public prosecutor from the Attorney General's Chamber. This role should be played by an independent Attorney General, ensuring a fair and impartial legal process.</description>

Roland Engan, Chairman of the Sarawak PKR
*Carbon Trading in Sarawak: Who Reaps the Benefits?*
In the keynote speech at the Carbon Asia conference on 15 March 2023 which took place in Kuching. The Sarawak Premier expects that Sarawak will earn RM315 million to RM1.039 billion a year through Carbon trading. We agree with carbon trading for economic benefits and environmental sustainability. We maintain the forest and stop this logging (Zero logging) which PKR Baram proposed more than a year ago - according to Roland. But we still question who benefits the most when this carbon trading is implemented. Will Orang Asal also get a share of the carbon trading revenue? asked Roland. Or licensees and concession holders will be given and monopolized by giant logging and plantation companies that have been destroying and polluting the environment. We Sarawakians want laws that favor the people, not capitalist companies. Roland lashed out at the Sarawak Government under the leadership of GPS which wants carbon emissions but still allows/gives licenses to loggers. This is the difference between our policy when compared to GPS. Roland wants the proceeds of carbon trading to be paid directly to the people who look after/own the forest where the carbon is obtained.
Another thing that the people should be aware of according to Roland, the Carbon Trading and Land Affairs Bill (to be presented in November 2023) will give the state government the right to control, dominate and collect revenue not only from the forest but also what is in the land , rivers and in the air (including carbon). This all gives results to the state government but not to the poor people who own land, rivers and forests. Roland urged the people of Sarawak to elect a government that safeguards their rights and at the same time provides economic prosperity. Regarding the GPS issue, all 82 state assembly seats will be contested in PRN13 Sarawak. Roland stressed that PH and PKR Sarawak are ready at any time to replace GPS to govern Sarawak. With the awareness of the majority of the people will give hope for change.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst from Sarawak
*PRN13 Sarawak: GPS want to Oust PH Sarawak from Power*
Iswardy give his opinion on 3 issues related to the Sarawak GPS government. That is, Sarawak Premier Abang Johari stated that in PRN13 Sarawak which is expected in 2026 or at the latest on April 15, 2027. GPS will not compromise to give state assembly seats to friends in the unity government. Because not a member of the coalition at the state government level. For Iswardy - this open statement by the Premier of Sarawak gives a clear indication that GPS wants absolute power at the state level at the same time this will strengthen their dominance at the parliamentary level. With that strength will allow GPS to have enough bargaining power. This means that PH Sarawak can criticize the wrongdoing of the GPS administration in Sarawak and PH Sarawak's preparations for the state election should start from now.
Petronas group president/chief executive Tan sri Muhammad Taufik revealed that until August 2023, Petronas has paid SST- RM13 billion to Sarawak and RM8 billion to Sabah. This payment is made monthly. According to Iswardy, money is not a problem for Sarawak. On the other hand, the big problem for Sarawak is efficient management, good governance and priorities. Many mega projects are implemented not for the people. But implemented to benefit cronies. Therefore, according to Iswardy, the upcoming PRN13 Sarawak is an important moment to get rid of the capitalists/taukeh who control the movement and behavior of GPS politicians in Sarawak. The people of Sarawak have a great responsibility to make changes. At the federal level, the government led by Anwar Ibrahim is doing it and PRN13 is an opportunity for the people of Sarawak to kick out the big taukehs who have controlled all the state's revenue all this time
GPS in November 2023, will present the carbon trading and land affairs bill. Will it benefit the people of Sarawak? Iswardy thinks that the number of opposition in the Sarawak State Assembly is too small, so that GPS can do anything. All laws passed by GPS are for the benefit of the capitalists who have financed their election campaigns all this time. The people of Sarawak must unite to get rid of GPS.</itunes:summary>

*Challenges to Diversity: Critiquing the Push for an Islamic Malay Administration*
Four days ago, a coalition of Islamic NGOs in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan proposed the establishment of an Islamic Malay government/administration without DAP (Chinese) at the state and federal levels. The reason – because of the big victory of all the Muslim Malay candidates in the last 6 state elections and the majority of the current members of parliament are Muslim Malays. Furthermore, according to the Chairman of Ummah Defender Movement – Mohd Zai Mustafa, DAP oppresses Malay Muslims in Selangor and Sembilan state. 
According to Dennis, this pro-Islam NGO statement is not true. Monopolizing national and state administration based on Islamic Malay alone is against the concept of power sharing which is the basis of the formation of Malaysia. If this basis is set aside. Then there will be an imbalance that will affect the unity of the country. 
Dennis also criticized the racist actions that took place in Sarawak that made Sarawak a rich state but the distribution of wealth was unequal. Melanau Malays dominate everything to the extent that other races continue to lag behind the current of development. The appointment of all important positions is monopolized by Malay/Melanau leaders in the UN. 
From the highest positions of TY, Premier, Speaker of the National Assembly, Speaker of the National Assembly to senior positions such as Deputy Prime Minister and Ministers at the federal and state levels. The Dayaks were left out. 
The appointment of acting TYT for example. Asfia is a Malay Muslim from the PBB party. While there are still many capable Dayak Iban leaders who are not appointed to that position. If this continues, racial disharmony will occur – according to Dennis. Dennis hopes that the basic concept of the formation of Malaysia (Power sharing among all races) will be the guide for all political parties in this country.</itunes:summary>

Explaining about the Rainforest Tribunal - according to Celine it is a staging that talks about the deforestation/logging that is happening in Sarawak (Borneo). Many parties were called to testify, including logging workers, scientists, journalists, activists, politicians and the indigenous/Penan people who every day feel fear and threats every time they defend their forests. According to Celine, although we are unable to stop logging completely. But at least, we are informed, consent from us should be obtained and our rights should be respected. We also question - where are the results of logging for decades?. Celine was excited because many parties sent positive feedback (especially Sarawakians) and wanted to join the campaign against deforestation.

-----------------
John Brian Anthony, Sarawak Iban Social Activist
*True Dayak people in PBB are being used to deceive for votes*
John gave an analysis of PAS's big victory in the elections in 6 states. According to John, PAS's big victory was due to 2 reasons. First because by voting for PAS you will get a ticket to heaven. But not all Muslim Malays will believe this narrative, because many know that only GOD can decide who can go to heaven or hell. But the most effective argument is - the supremacy of Malay Islam. 
According to PAS- no matter how bad the Malay Muslim administration is, they should be supported- because they are brothers of the same religion and nation. As good as any other party like DAP - they are still a different race and a different religion. Therefore, there is no other argument that can fight the narrative of the Islamic Malay vote campaign. 
According to John the same thing happened in Sarawak. The narrative of PBB supremacy (Bumiputra Pesaka Party Bersatu) led by the Premier of Sarawak is very effective. The people of Sarawak were asked to vote for PBB because PBB is a Dayak (Pesaka) party and a Malay Bumiputra (Bumiputra) party. Therefore, there is no other party that is better and more qualified to govern Sarawak - other than PBB. 
But John reminded the Dayak people in the PBB. That they are only complementary and of little value. This is proven that TYT is from PBB Bumiputra Malays, the Premier of Sarawak is also from PBB Malay Bumiputra. The Deputy Prime Minister, the Speaker of the National Assembly, the Speaker of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly - all of them are Bumiputra Malays in Sarawak. So, the Dayaks in the PBB are bribed with some small positions and few contracts and projects. This is what actually happened in Sarawak - according to John Brian.

John Brian Anthony, Sarawak Iban Social Activist
*True Dayak people in PBB are being used to deceive for votes*
John gave an analysis of PAS's big victory in the elections in 6 states. According to John, PAS's big victory was due to 2 reasons. First because by voting for PAS you will get a ticket to heaven. But not all Muslim Malays will believe this narrative, because many know that only GOD can decide who can go to heaven or hell. But the most effective argument is - the supremacy of Malay Islam. 
According to PAS- no matter how bad the Malay Muslim administration is, they should be supported- because they are brothers of the same religion and nation. As good as any other party like DAP - they are still a different race and a different religion. Therefore, there is no other argument that can fight the narrative of the Islamic Malay vote campaign. 
According to John the same thing happened in Sarawak. The narrative of PBB supremacy (Bumiputra Pesaka Party Bersatu) led by the Premier of Sarawak is very effective. The people of Sarawak were asked to vote for PBB because PBB is a Dayak (Pesaka) party and a Malay Bumiputra (Bumiputra) party. Therefore, there is no other party that is better and more qualified to govern Sarawak - other than PBB. 
But John reminded the Dayak people in the PBB. That they are only complementary and of little value. This is proven that TYT is from PBB Bumiputra Malays, the Premier of Sarawak is also from PBB Malay Bumiputra. The Deputy Prime Minister, the Speaker of the National Assembly, the Speaker of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly - all of them are Bumiputra Malays in Sarawak. So, the Dayaks in the PBB are bribed with some small positions and few contracts and projects. This is what actually happened in Sarawak - according to John Brian.

John Brian Anthony, Sarawak Iban Social Activist
*Past Patterns, Future Predictions: The Black Hole of Sarawak's Wealth Ventures*
John gave feedback regarding the launch of Sarawak's Future Wealth Fund which was recently launched and received an initial fund of RM8 billion. I'm sure it will fail- said John Brian. Proven in the past, all the schemes and funds launched. Which is said to enrich the people of Sarawak. Everything has failed. And the person who questioned the loss of this large amount of money, YB Chong Chen Jen was sued by the Sarawak state government in Court. This is called "The Black hole". 
According to John Brian since long ago, the Sarawak government has launched various schemes using public funds. For example ASSAR, LCDA-PELITA, SELCRA, SEDC and since 1970 the Sarawak government announced that 5% of the timber revenue will be returned to the Sarawak Development and Wealth Fund. But until today, none of the children of Sarawak know where all this money is. The state government is not responsible and not transparent in the management of the intended funds. He assured that the newly launched fund will also lose and the money will be lost as well. Just like what happened to 1MDB. 
John Brian also questioned the appointment of Sarawak Premier's son - Abang Abddilah Izzarim as an independent director of BERJAYA LAND. A well-known real estate and gambling company. Is the son of the premier of Sarawak so capable or is there a purpose for the company involved in using him to get a project, contract or land from the state of Sarawak. Come on, I invite RFS listeners to monitor the activities of BERJAYA LAND in Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

Gabril Atong, Punan social activist
*Wealth for Whom? Exploring Political Dimensions of Sarawak's Future Wealth Fund*
Gabril commented on the launch of the Sarawak Future Wealth Fund launched by the Premier of Sarawak today, with an initial fund of RM8 billion. Generally, it is the right course of action. But is it politically motivated which will eventually become the material of the GPS campaign, to prove that GPS is a successful party in building wealth for future generations. 
According to Gabril, Sarawak is the state with the most poor people in Malaysia, but the state with the most agricultural products. Why can't the state government allocate some money to free poor families in Sarawak from the shackles of poverty. I am also not convinced of the honesty and transparency of GPS government administration in Sarawak. I am not convinced that they will manage these funds transparently and responsibly. For example in the past - ASSAR was established to generate wealth for the people of Sarawak. Finally ASSAR was closed without reasonable explanation. What is the final statement of the ASSAR account. LCDA was established to develop the land of the Sarawak Indigenous/Dayak NCR. But in the end many Sarawakians were cheated and many cases ended up in court. This is among other examples of how GPS bullies the people of Sarawak. Another hot issue last week - related to the Sarawak Premier's son being appointed as an independent Director of BERJAYA Land. Berjaya Land is one of the largest real estate developers in Malaysia. Why was Abang Abdillah Izzarim (son of the Premier of Sarawak) appointed to that position? Is it because he is capable or to make it easier for BERJAYA Land to get projects and contracts in Sarawak. This is a conflict of interest. The children of state officials were appointed to certain positions when their father was the head of the state administration. I am very disappointed with the GPS administration in Sarawak - Gabril said.

*False Accusations and Legal Drama: Save Rivers Prepares for High Court*
Today the 4 directors of Save Rivers (SR) were called to the Miri police station to give evidence and be investigated under act 504 of the penal code and act 233- the communication and multimedia act 1998. This investigation follows a police report made by the CEO of Samling Playwood - Laurence Chia who alleges that SR launched a campaign/petition urging Samling to drop the 5 million defamation suit case by Samling Playwood against SR. As a result, CEO Samling's email was flooded with 5700 objections/requests to drop the suit. According to Simon Siah, SR did not launch any related campaign or petition. If there is, it is done by other parties and has nothing to do with SR. Samling's CEO also claimed that SR caused a commotion during the mention of the case in the Miri high court a few months ago. Once again Simon Siah explained that it was an untrue accusation. Because as long as I was in the Court at that time, the situation was calm and peaceful. Simon concluded that what Samling did was an act of desperation and tried to tarnish SR's image. The 5 million ringgit defamation case by Samling against SR will be heard in the Miri high court on 18 to 20 September 2023. In the suit involved, Samling accused SR of issuing defamatory statements in their publication regarding the MTCC process which was supposedly carried out completely and perfectly in their timber concession area. Whereas in reality the residents involved in the Samling back concession area were not informed at all as required by the MTCC. Simon will represent SR in the trial on 18 to 20 sept 2023.</itunes:summary>

*Countdown to Election Day: The Battle for Power in Six Key States*
In less than 48 hours, voters in 6 states will vote to elect representatives to the DUN of Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu, N9, Selangor and Penang. PN/PAS is still trying to give hope to their supporters that a big victory in 6 states will allow them to capture Putrajaya/Federal Government. According to Iswardi- in terms of logic and mathematics, there is no possibility that GPS and GRS will support PN/PAS even if the Unity Government loses in 6 states. But these are all PAS tactics to give encouragement and hope to their supporters to vote and continue to support PN/PAS. Actually - according to Iswardi the people of Sabah and Sarawak are very anti PAS Party which brings extreme Islamic ideology. PAS President Hadi Awang in his latest speech yesterday claimed that GPS and GRS will support PN/PAS to form a new government in Putrajaya if they capture 6 states in the August 12 poll. In addition to the PAS vote argument, you will get a ticket to heaven. PAS also issued a statement today. Voting for a tyrannical leader will be a sin. Iswardi agreed that voting for a tyrannical leader would be a sin. Therefore, he asked the people in Kelantan to reject PAS because PAS has oppressed them by not being able to supply clean water to the people of Kelantan. Until recently, the federal government gave a large allocation to supply clean water for the entire state of Kelantan. In general, Iswardy thinks the PH/BN Government will be able to maintain victory in N9, Selangor and Penang. Terengganu will still be won by PAS. But the situation is still 50/50 in Kedah and Kelantan.

Andrian Lasimbang, environmental activist
*Sarawak Government Hypocritical in Carbon trading*
The local press reported that Sarawak has approved 2 carbon trading licenses which were each given to PETROS (Petroleum Sarawak Berhad) and to Samling through SARACARBON Sdn.Bhd. These two companies will collect and store natural carbon (CCUS). It was also reported that Sarawak will get around RM315 million to RM1.039 billion a year from carbon trading. Will the Aboriginal people get a share of the profits?. The answer is no. In fact, according to Andrian, the movements and activities of Indigenous people in the gazetted land area for carbon trading will be controlled and subject to strict regulations. They can also be driven out, in other words the Area that has been gazetted will be strictly controlled and all human activities prohibited. However, the press also reported that the Sarawak government did not plan to end the issuance of logging licenses to fully switch to carbon trading. This was confirmed by Sarawak Forest Director Datu Hamden Muhammad- in a media release today. For Andrian- this is where we see the hypocrisy of the Sarawak government. Every effort is made to enrich capitalists like Samling. At the same time Aboriginal land was confiscated and they did not benefit from carbon trading at all.

Andrian Lasimbang, environmental activist
*Sarawak Government Hypocritical in Carbon trading*
The local press reported that Sarawak has approved 2 carbon trading licenses which were each given to PETROS (Petroleum Sarawak Berhad) and to Samling through SARACARBON Sdn.Bhd. These two companies will collect and store natural carbon (CCUS). It was also reported that Sarawak will get around RM315 million to RM1.039 billion a year from carbon trading. Will the Aboriginal people get a share of the profits?. The answer is no. In fact, according to Andrian, the movements and activities of Indigenous people in the gazetted land area for carbon trading will be controlled and subject to strict regulations. They can also be driven out, in other words the Area that has been gazetted will be strictly controlled and all human activities prohibited. However, the press also reported that the Sarawak government did not plan to end the issuance of logging licenses to fully switch to carbon trading. This was confirmed by Sarawak Forest Director Datu Hamden Muhammad- in a media release today. For Andrian- this is where we see the hypocrisy of the Sarawak government. Every effort is made to enrich capitalists like Samling. At the same time Aboriginal land was confiscated and they did not benefit from carbon trading at all.

*Considering TYT's Well-Being: If Unable to Fulfill Duties, Resignation Should be Considered*
1. Elections in 6 states - Voting for the PAS Party will get you a ticket to heaven. The campaign talk is heating up with only 3 days left for the campaign. But unfortunately Parti Islam Semalaysia PAS continues to campaign using racial and religious sentiments. By saying- voting for PAS will go to heaven. While voting for PH/BN - non-Malays (DAP) will dominate the national administration. We continue to ask voters to remain rational, vote for parties and candidates that can bring progress to the state and the nation. Today the early voting started with exciting statistics.
2. TYT Taib Mahmud will return to Sarawak on 15 August 2023- Astro Awani reports that TYT Sarawak Taib Mahmud is in good health even after undergoing a minor surgical procedure to repair his colon which was previously infected with cancer. But sharing a video on his wife Ragad Kurdi's Instagram account shows Taib is weak and unwell. If Taib is no longer able to carry out his duties as TYT, It is better that the job is given to someone else and he can take a break from official government duties. Taib and his wife are believed to be in Turkey.
3. The Belaga Regatta is lively despite the shortages. - The Belaga Regatta which closed its curtain on Sunday 6 August 2023. It was lively but full of shortages. Visitors complain that there are no hotels to stay in, the road leading to Belaga is narrow and dangerous, there are no small hawker stalls, uncomfortable places to eat and drink, no stadiums and even no halls for cultural performances. Cultural performances are only held under prefabricated tents. It's really sad. Belaga which is in Hulu Rajang Parliament houses 3 mega hydro dams - Bakun, Murum and Baleh. Belaga is the largest and largest logging area in Malaysia in addition to the richest palm oil plantation area. It's sad that there is no stadium and no multipurpose hall. Sarawak Tourism Minister - Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah in his speech at the Belaga regatta continued to promise to bring development. Even though it has been 60 years since the promise was made. But still not fulfilled. Will the people of Belaga continue to vote for GPS?.</itunes:summary>

*Deputy Minister Linked to Encroaching Logging Companies*
Two months ago, residents of Belanga Long Bangan village discovered that their customary land had been encroached upon by two logging companies, namely MM Golden and UU Green Sdn Bhd. According to the villagers' investigation through the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM), Deputy Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change, Huang Tiong Sii, is the owner of MM Golden, holding 99.5 percent of the shares, while his child holds 0.5 percent.
Although Huang Tiong Sii announced on December 6, 2022, that he was no longer a director of MM Golden, it has been found that he is the owner. The villagers of Long Bangan reported the incident two months ago and also lodged a complaint with the local government, requesting a thorough investigation. However, after waiting for a considerable time, they have yet to receive a response.
Today, they once again went to the SG Asap police station to file a report and, accompanied by the police, proceeded to the logging site where both logging companies were observed operating. The police also accompanied them to the camp site to request a meeting with the manager of MM Golden, in order to ask for evidence. However, the manager was not present.
He mentioned that the police advised the villagers to negotiate with the personnel from the logging companies first before filing an official report.</itunes:summary>

*Sarawak's Future Demands Asset Declaration: Following PSM and MUDA's Lead in 6 PRN State Elections*
According to Jeff, all 19 MUDA Party candidates who are contesting in the elections in 6 states this time have declared their property and assets through sworn statements (SD). It is important for every candidate who contests to do so, so that the people can know the financial status of each candidate and the people can monitor the development of their assets if they win and are elected as Minister or deputy Minister. This record is very important so that YB who wins does not misuse his position to enrich himself. The MUDA party has long suggested that a property/asset declaration deed be created. This act should apply to all representatives of the people in the national assembly, parliament, state assembly and candidates who volunteer in the election. But according to Jeff, Ministers, Deputy Ministers and YBs in Sarawak have not declared their assets. This has caused many parties to raise doubts about their assets. The MUDA party hopes that, starting with the elections in these 6 states, a good practice will begin, each candidate voluntarily declaring their assets for public viewing.</itunes:summary>

*Wealth Inequality in Sarawak: 10% Control Majority of State's Resources*
According to data from the Implementation Coordination Unit (ICU) in June 2023, Sarawak, Kelantan, and Sabah are ranked as the top three poorest states in Malaysia. Among them, Sarawak has the highest number of households with income below RM 2,000, totaling 88,173 households. However, Abang Johari has stated that cash should not be the sole measure of people's wealth. He pointed out that many people in Sarawak own land, and land is considered as their assets.
The Sarawak Chief Minister must accept the fact that Sarawak is indeed a high-income state. However, the distribution of wealth is concentrated among only 10% of the Sarawak population who have close connections with the political leaders in the state. Abang Johari also claims that the statistics released by the federal government are misleading, but this is not accurate. Official statistics issued by the government are undoubtedly based on international standards.


We, the people of Sarawak, question whether during the decades of rule by PBB/GPS, the government has surveyed and granted land to the people. How is it possible for the people to own land when the Sarawak government does not recognize the ownership of NCR (Native Customary Rights) land that has not been surveyed?</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analysis
*PRN results in 6 states will not change the administrators in the central government*
Perikatan Nasional (PN/PAS) Youth Leader Ahmad Fadhil Shaari- said that it is not impossible that there will be a change of central government if PN wins big on the night of August 12. According to Ahmad - the constitution allows the change of government through various means. But Iswardy said that the method allowed by the constitution is a vote of confidence/no confidence in parliament. This method has been proven to fail in the opening session of the last term of parliament. While the second way, according to Iswardy is - support through a sworn statement (SD) but this way has been abolished through the anti-party jumping act. So the last way is with en bloc support. However, whatever the outcome of the PRN will not change the composition of the parliamentary seats. As such, there is no need for UMNO/GPS or GRS to change their support for the PMX-led government. After all, the service record of PAS and PPBM led by Muhyiddin Yassin is very bad - in the state government or the central government when they ruled. Therefore, Iswardy remains confident that the unity government will get the support of voters in the 6 states that hold elections.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analysis
*PRN results in 6 states will not change the administrators in the central government*
Perikatan Nasional (PN/PAS) Youth Leader Ahmad Fadhil Shaari- said that it is not impossible that there will be a change of central government if PN wins big on the night of August 12. According to Ahmad - the constitution allows the change of government through various means. But Iswardy said that the method allowed by the constitution is a vote of confidence/no confidence in parliament. This method has been proven to fail in the opening session of the last term of parliament. While the second way, according to Iswardy is - support through a sworn statement (SD) but this way has been abolished through the anti-party jumping act. So the last way is with en bloc support. However, whatever the outcome of the PRN will not change the composition of the parliamentary seats. As such, there is no need for UMNO/GPS or GRS to change their support for the PMX-led government. After all, the service record of PAS and PPBM led by Muhyiddin Yassin is very bad - in the state government or the central government when they ruled. Therefore, Iswardy remains confident that the unity government will get the support of voters in the 6 states that hold elections.</description>

Dennis Along, PKR Baram Communications Director
*Why Ibraco got the RM 529.83 Million project without tender?*
On July 28, Ibraco Construction Sdb.Bhd received the LOA- Letter of acceptance from JKR Sarawak. For the Project worth RM529.83 million for the construction of a bridge in Batang Semarahan and a 9 KM long 2 lane four lane road from Batang Samarahan to Batang Sadong. 
Dennis questioned why Ibraco obtained a contract worth more than half a billion ringgit without an open tender. Is it because Ibraco is related/owned by Taib Mahmud TYT Sarawak? According to Dennis, why are the bridge and road projects only concentrated in the PBB-Melayu Melanau party area? Whereas for more than 60 years the people in Baram and the upper reaches of Rajang, Limbang and Lawas have been waiting for a road to reach their village. What Sarawak Premier Abang Joe is doing is contrary to what PMX Anwar Ibrahim wants. 
Dennis also questioned why during the absence of Taib TYT Sarawak, no acting was appointed? For Dennis, the people of Sarawak have the right to ask and question the unfair actions that took place in the administration of Abang Joe in Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

Abqari Annwar, Student Activist/Student at the University of Malaya
*The Impact of Social Media on Young Voters in the Six States Elections*
The nomination of election candidates in 6 states in peninsular Malaysia took place on Saturday 29 July 2023. In GE15 there was a significant increase in young voters, that is a total of 7 million voters. What are the tendencies of young voters this time, what factors influence their choice. 
According to Abqari- as a young Malay and Muslim, he will consider choosing and giving a chance to a party with a good record of service and administration. In Selangor, the areca nut island and the state of Sembilan show an increase in economy and administrative efficiency. But on the other hand in Kelantan, Terengganu and Kedah - the PAS administration is less convincing. 
Added to the case of the Kedah Chief Minister who was recently brought to court on charges under the sedition act for insulting the king of Selangor. The Menteri Besar of Kedah is also linked to the weakness of state governance. The weakness of the PAS administration will make it difficult for them to defend the states they govern. But according to Abqari, Not all young voters have good political knowledge. Therefore there will still be young voters who will vote based on emotions and not based on a good administrative record. 
Asked what campaign medium most influenced young voters. Abqari is confident that social media such as FB and Tik Tok will be very effective in influencing young voters. Young people do not have time to attend talks. So they are only waiting for reports in the media. Abqari is confident that whichever party dominates the social media campaign will win a lot of seats. Overall, PH/BN is expected to win in Penang, Sembilan and Selangor. However, PN/PAS will win some seats, especially Malay majority seats. In Kelantan and Terengganu PN/PAS will remain in power. Except in Kedah it is not yet known which Party will win.</itunes:summary>

Baru Bian, Secretary-General of PSB
*Taib should be replaced if confirmed to be unwell*
Astana Sarawak has filed a police report against the report that Sarawak TYT Taib Mahmud is in critical condition. Astana assured the public that TYT was healthy and on holiday abroad. However, making a police report is not a good way to prove TYT Taib's health. The best way is to show where Taib is and the latest state of his health. 
According to Baru Bian, the people have the right to question and are entitled to a true report. If there is evidence and it is confirmed that TYT Taib is unwell, then it is appropriate for the Agong/King to appoint his successor to launch the administration of the state of Sarawak. The last time Astana Sarawak issued a statement that TYT Taib was in good health was more than a month ago.


Simon Siah, Lawyer/community activist
*The public has the right to ask questions about Taib’s Health condition*
Simon thinks that if it is true that TYT Taib is abroad, even if he is healthy, Astana should still appoint an acting official to carry out official government work. What is happening now seems like something is wrong. Astana should also deal with fake news related to TYT in a better way. Not by way of a police report. The public has the right to ask questions and the Astana side should use whatever is the right way to give the right/accurate and appropriate answer. Simon also asked people to keep calm and not speculate if there is no authentic news source</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, political analysis
*Six States Election: team reformasi vs team sakau*
Preliminary analysis of the election in 6 shows that the unity government is able to maintain victory in Selangor, PP and N9. While the chances in Kedah are relatively open 50/50 and the results in Kelantan and Terengganu depend on the success of the UMNO campaign which fielded many candidates in the 2 states involved. But campaigns on social media are more able to attract the attention of young voters than open talks. 
The clash this time, according to Iswardy- is the reformation team clashing/fighting against the team of people's property thieves and racial and religious extremists led by Hadi, Mahathir, Muhyiddin and Azmin. While UMNO is a party that has just realized that their struggle has been distorted and is trying to correct the situation by joining Anwar Ibrahim. 
For Iswardy- voters should be sane to vote. Voters can evaluate the progress enjoyed in Selangor, PP and N9 compared to Kelantan and Terengganu led by the PAS Party. Voters should value the economic achievements, transparency and integrity in PH-governed states and also value the achievements of Kelantan, Kedah and Terengganu which are governed by the PAS Party. 
Iswardy challenged PAS to file a police report if any PH/unity government leader steals people's money. It's quite funny according to Iswardy when Hadi praises Mahathir who has returned to the base of the road. 
While Hadi criticized Anwar for tarnishing the PAS Party's image as a religious extremist and because of Anwar's political actions, DAP became stronger. In 1998 PAS supported Anwar when Mahathir was fired, because at that time PAS wanted reforms to the system that was broken under Mahathir's administration and demanded good governance. Surprisingly now PAS praises Mahathir and blames Anwar. This is proof that PAS is not consistent in the struggle. The nomination of election candidates in 6 states will take place on 29 July and voting day on 12 August 2023.</itunes:summary>

*The Madinah Constitution is not necessary in Sarawak*
As a multi-ethnic state, Sarawak does not need the Madinah (Islamic) constitution as an administrative guide - Dennis Along said. The Premier of Sarawak said in the 2-day International Conference of Islamic Scholars held in Kuching, Sarawak. 
According to Abang Johari, the Madinah constitution provides fair governance to the people and prioritizes human values. Therefore the Madinah Constitution will be our guide, said Abang Johari. Dennis Along does not believe in GPS and does not believe in the Madinah Constitution to be fair. Dennis explained - Currently, the GPS administration in Sarawak gives advantages to Malays/Melanau and Muslim residents, while at the same time marginalizing non-Muslims. 
According to Dennis again, The Madinah Constitution that Abang Johari wants to follow is the same as the Malay Proclamation popularized by Tun Mahathir now. It will give advantages to Malays and Muslims. While in the context of Sarawak it is the Melanau Proclamation. Dennis insisted that the Sarawak government be governed using a meritocracy and transparency approach. Anyone with the expertise and competence to govern- should be given space to lead regardless of religion, skin color or descent. Adhering to the Madinah constitution only uses religion for political purposes as done by Tun Mahathir and the PAS Party.

*The Madinah Constitution is not necessary in Sarawak*
As a multi-ethnic state, Sarawak does not need the Madinah (Islamic) constitution as an administrative guide - Dennis Along said. The Premier of Sarawak said in the 2-day International Conference of Islamic Scholars held in Kuching, Sarawak. 
According to Abang Johari, the Madinah constitution provides fair governance to the people and prioritizes human values. Therefore the Madinah Constitution will be our guide, said Abang Johari. Dennis Along does not believe in GPS and does not believe in the Madinah Constitution to be fair. Dennis explained - Currently, the GPS administration in Sarawak gives advantages to Malays/Melanau and Muslim residents, while at the same time marginalizing non-Muslims. 
According to Dennis again, The Madinah Constitution that Abang Johari wants to follow is the same as the Malay Proclamation popularized by Tun Mahathir now. It will give advantages to Malays and Muslims. While in the context of Sarawak it is the Melanau Proclamation. Dennis insisted that the Sarawak government be governed using a meritocracy and transparency approach. Anyone with the expertise and competence to govern- should be given space to lead regardless of religion, skin color or descent. Adhering to the Madinah constitution only uses religion for political purposes as done by Tun Mahathir and the PAS Party.

*Urges Sarawakians to file a police report against Ragad*
When thousands of Sarawakians gather at Padang Merdeka in Kuching (On Saturday 22 July 2023), to celebrate "Sarawak Day" or Sarawak's 60th independence day. Peter John and fellow activists staged a peaceful protest against the granting of citizenship to Ragad Kurdi Taib. Wife of TYT Sarawak-Taib Mahmud. Ragad and his two children were given Malaysian citizenship with Sarawak (Melanau) native status. In the meantime, there are many people of Sarawak origin who are still waiting for years to get citizenship and until now they have not been given citizenship. The express granting of citizenship to Ragad and his 2 children - very sad, plus they were given Sarawak native status. With such a status, Ragad has the privilege of owning and buying the land of Sarawak natives and Peter John is worried that one day this land in Sarawak will be owned and monopolized by rich people from Labenon State. I don't object to him being given normal citizenship like any other foreigner. But being given special treatment with Sarawak native status is outrageous.

The absence of TYT Taib in the celebration of 60 years of Sarawak independence - last weekend. It seems to confirm the news that TVT Taib is in poor health. However, Peter insisted that the Sarawak government is more than ready to deal with Taib's absence. Of course the Sarawak government has a candidate to replace Taib as TYT. Peter described Taib's administration for 33 years as an administration of iron nails. Many of the original people's rights were taken away, Taib's position was used to enrich his family and cronies. So much so that Taib became one of the richest people in Malaysia. If PMX is hunting Tun Daim and Tun Mahathir for getting rich by misusing power. So Taib should also be PMX Anwar's priority - Said Peter John. Peter john Believe in the absence and departure of Taib from the political map of Sarawak. The situation will be more conducive for the people of Sarawak. Peter reiterated his warning that the people of Sarawak are facing a subtle threat that undermines their rights as Sarawakian natives. Therefore, he urged the people of Sarawak to file a police report against Ragad to stop the wrong practices that have been done all this time. Peter is satisfied with the granting of a public holiday on July 22 every year - his struggle demands that "Sarawak Day" be made a public holiday since 2013.</itunes:summary>

*Sarawakians Demand Return of Land Confiscated by Taib Mahmud's Family*
Dennis gave feedback regarding 2 news involving TYT Taib Mahmud. 
According to Dennis, the majority of Sarawakians are puzzled as to why TYT Taib Mahmud was not present at the celebration of 60 years of Sarawak Independence. It is the biggest festival in the history of Sarawak and it is an official government event that requires the presence of TYT. Dennis demanded the Palace to provide further explanation. Or did TYT Taib Mahmud deliberately not want to be in public because he was ashamed of the achievements of Sarawak where there are still many poor people, asked Dennis. 
For the record, Taib was the Chief Minister of Sarawak for 33 years. Other than that. Today Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim warned that action will be taken against the two richest politicians in Malaysia. 
Although not naming names, a Sarawakian - Francis Paul Siah thinks that what PMX Anwar is referring to - is Tun Daim and Tun Mahathir. But Paul Siah asked that Taib Mahmud's name be included in the list that will be taken action. Share the same opinion. Dennis requested that PMX take strict action against Taib Mahmud and also his accomplices in Sarawak. The evidence is clear according to Dennis – many political leaders are rich but the people remain poor. Dennis also requested that PMX correct the injustice in Sarawak, where the Taib family confiscated much of the natives' land. Dennis asked for it to be returned immediately. Does Taib's absence in Sarawak have anything to do with PMX Anwar Ibrahim's actions of chasing rich people who steal the people's wealth?

*Penan people want peaceful negotiations, not provocations and fights*
Wahid gave an update on the blockade set up by two Penan villages, namely Long Belok and Long Sanyan. Wahid felt sad because their blockade was demolished by the Shin Yang Kejin Camp company on July 18, 2023. Also involved in the demolition process are the forest department and the police. However, a day later the blockade was re-established on 19 July 2023. The Penan people asked for a dialogue to be held before Shin Yang entered the logging area that preserves the catchment/drinking water area and the protected area that the Penan people depend on to live in this protected forest area. The Penan people want peaceful negotiations, not provocations and fights - said Wahid Anyie.

Alan Ling See Kiong, Former Senator and now the Sarawak PH secretary
PSB has not changed, it has always been a bloc party of GPS
Now it has been proven like what we said before the last Sarawak PRN 2021 - that PSB is only acting to split votes. As a result, PH Sarawak lost badly in PRN 2021. PRN 2016 (PRN11) PH Sarawak won 10 state assembly seats but because of PSB's role in splitting votes (Supposedly as the third power) will replace GPS- in PRN12, PH Sarawak won only 2 seats through DAP and PKR and AMANAH lost all the contested seats. It has not even been 5 years since PSB has asked to cooperate with GPS through PDP (Parti Tiong King Sing). This is what PSB really looks like- said Alan ling. Alan Ling said DAP is a principled party, once DAP only won one seat in the Sarawak State Assembly, but still did not submit to GPS.

What did PSB, PDP and GPS do to close the door, so that PH cannot enter Sarawak. The same policy was carried out by the previous administration when Sarawak BN did not allow UMNO to enter and contest in Sarawak. Now GPS Sarawak works with PSB so that there is no room for PH Sarawak to ask for a seat to contest. On the grounds that the GPS coalition has represented the Unity government in Sarawak.

Iswardy Morni, Activist/Political Analyst
*Political Parties Should Focus on Policies, Not Personal Attacks*
Kedah caretaker Menteri Besar Sanusi Muhammad Nor was charged in the Selayang Sessions Court today on 2 separate charges, namely incitement regarding the appointment of the Selangor Menteri Besar by the Sultan of Selangor and the establishment of a unity government with the approval of the King/Agong. Immediately after leaving the court, Sanusi in a media sitting accused the Anwar Ibrahim-led government of using the police to suppress the voice of the people with the aim of affecting the chances of the PAS&amp;PN party winning the elections in 6 states.
According to Iswardy, Sanusi's statement is incorrect. Many PAS and PN leaders have been speaking for the past month, but they have not been charged or arrested (freedom of speech). As long as it doesn't break the law. 
Sanusi has questioned the authority of the King in the appointment of the Menteri Besar and has touched on religious and racial issues - which have the potential to cause tension and fighting. The one who filed a police report against Sanusi was the Royal Advisor to the Sultan of Selangor. 
Iswardy is of the opinion that the government does not block any political talk - just don't touch the 3R issue - King, religion and race. Related to the question of what form the content of the talk is in a mature political framework? Iswardy hopes that the political parties will speak by presenting the good policies that their party has implemented and criticizing the bad policies that their political opponents have implemented. Asked, will Sanusi's prosecution have a negative impact on voter support in the elections in 6 states. It depends on how well each party's machinery is able to explain what is happening and convince their supporters and undecided voters.</itunes:summary>

*PSB, an opportunist party*
The cooperation of PSB (President Wong Son Koh) with PDP (President Tiong King Sing) is surprising but easy to read. According to John - This cooperation is aimed at business monopoly. During the administration of Adnan Satem as the chief minister of Sarawak, many timber licenses belonging to the Foochow Chinese were canceled, angering the timber industry. Son Koh and Tiong are descendants of FooChow. But with the change of leadership at the center and state. Son koh will get business benefits if he cooperates with the Premier of Sarawak and the central government. That is the main motive of Son Koh and Tiong king Sing. Apart from that, PSB's support for GPS will weaken the Dayak voice. PSB knows that parties based on Dayak support such as PBDS, Aspiration, SEDAR and PBK are too small and will not challenge GPS. Continuing with these parties will not benefit PSB. So with the Movement that PSB made - PSB can gain business from the central and state governments. At the same time the threat to GPS has been reduced. If this continues then the business wealth of the Foochow Chinese in Sarawak will continue to be preserved. John hopes that Sarawak's Dayak voters will be wise to evaluate this development and vote wisely in the future.

&gt; Andrian Lasimbang, Former Sabah Indigenous Senator/Activist – Green Hydrogen: Not as Clean as it Seems 
&gt; Mr. David from Miri –  J-kom estimated of cost of groceries is unrealistic, does certain MPs spending below RM 400 per month?

-=====================

Andrian Lasimbang, Former Sabah Indigenous Senator/Activist
*Green Hydrogen: Not as Clean as it Seems*
Related to the development of the promotion of green hydrogen as a clean fuel in the future, by the Sarawak state government, Andrian thought it was not entirely true. Moreover, electricity sources from hydro Bakun, Murum, Batang Ai and Baleh are used to power plants that produce green hydrogen. Green hydrogen is clean, but the construction of hydroelectricity destroys vast forests and releases large amounts of carbon dioxide into the air. Furthermore, in the long term, hydro dams produce methane gas 4 times more polluting than carbon dioxide gas. Therefore, saying that this green hydrogen is 100 percent clean is incorrect. After all, the process of liquefying green hydrogen into gas when it is to be used, requires a hydrogen fuel cell that also contains Rey earth material. This means that the production process and green hydrogen cycle are still polluting.

Political Secretary to Dato Seri Dr. Jeffrey Ketinggan (Deputy Chief Minister of Sabah), Anuar Ghani informed, Sabah loses RM8 million a day when it delays the Nature Conservation Agreement (NCA) with Hock Standard Limited from Singapore to allow an area of 2 million hectares in Sabah to be involved in carbon trading. According to Andrian, the problem is for Sabahans because this agreement was done secretly and kept secret. They also do not know the real issue of the content of the agreement. What Adrian do know is that 2 million hectares of land is involved and but do not know where the land in question is located. As such, Andrian has initiated an initial suit in the Sabah court to uncover the content of the agreement. Other developments indicate that the Attorney General of Sabah has concluded that the agreement is invalid. However, if the collaboration between the Sabah government and companies from Singapore is successful, it will abolish the NCR rights of Sabah natives and 2 million hectares of land will be leased under the control of the Lion Gate Company for 100 years. Of course the people of Sabah objected to this action. In this matter, the Sabah government is urged to reveal the real information.</itunes:summary>

*No dialogue arrange by plantation companies and directly encroach the native land*
Jok thinks that the two plantation companies that took the land of the villagers in Nanga Seridan, Long Sepiling and Lebu Kulat (Tinjar, Baram) are very good at manipulating the situation to achieve their goals. The initial step taken by this company should be to call a dialogue with the villagers and implement the survey parameters first. But these two steps were not done. On the other hand, this company encroached on the land of the villagers when there was a dispute between the residents of Nanga Seridan and the residents of Long Sepiling. When two parties fight, it is easy for the aggressors to achieve their goals. If the tense situation between the plantation company and the residents cannot be eased and if dialogue cannot solve their problems.

*Residents Fight Against Land Encroachment by Plantation Company in Sarawak*
reported to the RFS that the garden land of residents in 3 Panjang houses in Batang Tinjar-Nanga Seridan, Long Sepiling and Lebu Kulat had been encroached by the plantation company Mega Masor and Miri Timur to be planted with palm oil. Residents in these 3 Panjang houses began to notice the presence of this plantation company during the MCO curfew in 2020. This company brings bulldozers and excavators to level the rubber and fruit gardens of the residents to be planted with palm oil. In order to defend the rights of the residents, they have set up a blockade and take turns guarding the affected area so that it is not invaded by the company in question. Robertson appealed to the public, NGOs and lawyers to come help and give moral support to the people who set up the blockade. Robertson also appealed to the Sarawak government not to give the people's land to plantation companies that are already rich. If our garden is destroyed, how can we continue to live?

Dennis Along, activist from Baram
*It is no reason to give land to Ragad Kurdi. She is wealthy and her wealth is inexhaustible*
Spread on social media a PL approved by the Department of Land and Survey - approval of a plot of land in Demak Baru, Jalan Bako Kuching given to Ragad Kurdi Taib. Dennis questioned the need for such land to be given to Ragad. Ragad is the wife of TYT Taib Mahmud - the property of Ragad and her husband will not be exhausted even if spent by their 20 descendants. Dennis requested that the Land and Survey department be disbanded because the Land and Survey department has only been a tool for approving land grants to the wealthy and influential only. 
While poor people who apply and ask for land for agricultural use for their survival are not served and are not approved. Take the example of Usahajaya Tukau Miri village. The poor villagers were evicted, while the land of the village site was given to the Parabena developer company (which is related to TYT Taib's family). Dennis insisted that GPS Sarawak should be held accountable for the Land and Survey department's failure to help the poor.</itunes:summary>

John Brian, Sarawak activist
*Only 10% are rich. They are politicians and families /cronies of them*
World Bank economist Apurva Sanghi- confirmed that Sarawak is now listed as a high-income state. The latest data analyzed by the World Bank obtained from DOSM- Department of Statistics Malaysia found that each Sarawakian earns an annual income of RM61,00 (USD 13,205) or at least RM5000 per month. According to John Brian, "I do not dispute this data. But I think the majority of Sarawakians are still poor. Indeed, Sarawak's annual income is high. But it is donated or owned by the upper classes who have political and commercial power. These people are mostly friends/cronies of those in power". If a country is rich but its people are still poor. This means there is a big problem in the administration. This is what Sarawak is facing, according to John Brian. Businesses that generate billions of ringgit in profits such as the oil and gas industry, palm oil plantations, logging, ports, hotels, manufacturing, renewable energy/dams and now entering the phase of hydrogen energy and carbon trading are dominated by a small group. 10 percent of the rich have high incomes while the other 90 percent of Sarawakians are still poor. I request that the state administrator be changed. Only then will the new administration be able to distribute wealth fairly and equally. This can all be done through political power and the ballot box. The people of Sarawak should choose wisely during the election.</itunes:summary>

Barnie Lasimbang, environmental expert
*Jeffrery Ketinggan need to answer which area for Carbon Trading program*
This NCA issue has been a hot topic in Sabah since it was revealed by one of international portal during Cop26 in Glasgow. 
NCA is an agreement signed by Sabah State govt and a company which was registered in Singapore, that's Hock Standard whom owner is unknown,  that was given power to manage Tropical rainforest in Sabah with an area of 2millions hactres, for 100 yrs for carbon trading project. 
Where there was consultation carried out.  The agreement was made secretly. 
There was no clear justify and the informations were limited, as such Barnie took initiative to file an Originating Summons to request for access to get more information in detail. And with that the Conservator gave Barnie photocopies of the information. So that was the first time they saw the contents of agreement. After further studied it with Lawyers,  experts where they found that the agreement was only one sided. Benefiting Hock Standard company. And there was no clause for sabah state govt to exit this agreement. 
What is the most scary part in the agreement is process of benefit sharing which is in favour of the company.
There were several issues raised by Sabah NGOs on their concern to Dr. Jeffry but he refuse to answer to us,  instead accused the Sabah CSOs are the mastermind. 
After he filed the Summon, Sabah SAG had made a clear statement that the agreement was not enforceable, as it is not fulfilling the procedures and not due diligence. 
So with that he decided not to continue the suit, as he took the statement by Attorney General is official. 
But however after a year Jeffry Ketinggan emerged with a statement saying that Sabah State Govt is ready with carbon credit trading program and sell to Malaysia stock exchange may also be set up in Sabah. With 2Millions hactres .
And the confusing part is he did not mention in which area. Waiting Jeffrery Ketinggan to answer it.

Nick Kelesau, Spokesperson for Penan Keruan
*Penan's achievements will be better with good educational facilities*
The Penan community, despite being a minority ethnic group in Sarawak and mainly residing in rural areas, has produced 226 university graduates in less than three decades. This achievement is attributed to the establishment of a school for Penan children in Long Jekitan 34 years ago, which has yielded fruitful results. Premier Abang Johari Tun Openg expressed his pride in this accomplishment. 
Although the Premier of Sarawak gave figures for the achievements of the Penan people in the field of Education, it seemed encouraging. But according to Nick, if good educational facilities are given to the Penan people. The Penan people will be able to reach the highest level in the field of Education on par with other races in Malaysia. According to Nick, the Penan people are facing a very difficult challenge because they are in a very remote area in the interior. To get to the nearest school, it takes hours of travel using a Long boat, walking, using a four-wheel drive car or riding a log truck. Nick hopes that a primary school and a secondary school are built near the area where the Penan people live and the Penan people should be helped through scholarships. Schools in the interior should be added with facilities and good roads should be built to connect penan settlements to schools. Nick hopes that successful Penan children will contribute back to their community.</itunes:summary>

Tok Mudin, A retiree government servant from Betong
*Is Sarawakian Comfort Under the Current Administration Hindering Progress by GPS Government?*
A few days ago Puan Asiah abd Jalil posted on FB provoking the people of Sabah and Sarawak. According to Asiah, if placed to work in Sabah or Sarawak, he would resign within 24 hours. Because Sabah/Sarawak remains poor even after 60 years together in Malaysia, lacking basic facilities, it is difficult to plan a career, plan a family and raise children. For Tok Mudin, what Mrs. Asiah said is the reality in Sarawak. In the main urban centers in Sarawak there are indeed facilities. But 20 kilometers from the city center has seen poverty, poor schools, dilapidated clinics, long houses/villages with no telephone/internet facilities. If this is the case, how do you plan to continue studying? How will children excel in their studies, asked Tok Mudin. Mudin also questioned why the number of specialist teachers in Sarawak is so low. At MRSM Betong for example, almost all teaching staff are junior staff. Betong Hospital still fails to manage births (for mothers aged 35 and over) due to the absence of a specialist doctor, even though it is only 3 hours from Kuching city and 3 hours from Sibu city. Betong Hospital is only able to give basic medicines such as Paracetamol. For Mudin. What Mrs. Asiah said was intended to make the people of Sarawak aware not to depend too much on peninsular Malaysia. Sarawakians should not blame others. But you have to question why the country itself remains poor. Is it because the people of Sarawak are too comfortable under the current administration? Tok Mudin's question.

Romuald Siew, President of Tahabas
*Political Disharmony in Sarawak: BN's Invitation for GPS to Campaign in Six States may have Hidden Motive?*
Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has expressed his hope that leaders from GPS will assist coalition members during the upcoming state elections in Peninsular Malaysia. Ahmad Zahid, who is also the chairman of BN, has proposed inviting GPS leaders to share their experiences of political stability in Sarawak during the campaign period. He believes that the political stability in Sarawak can provide valuable lessons for the election machinery in the six states. While Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof previously stated that GPS would not directly participate in the state elections outside of Sarawak, Ahmad Zahid still hopes for their support. 

Mr. Romuald Siew stated that there are hidden motives behind the Deputy Prime Minister's call to the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) to assist in the State Election Campaign (PRN) in six states in Peninsular Malaysia. The statement that this action aims to emulate political stability in Sarawak is untrue because Pakatan Harapan (PH) is still the opposition, and opposition members of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly (Adun) have not been provided with allocations by the GPS government to develop their constituencies. This indicates a lack of political harmony in Sarawak and is perceived as biased. UMNO and GPS have been together for a long time, so it is certain that there are hidden political agendas that are not good behind this.</itunes:summary>

Peter Kallang, Chairman of SaveRivers
*Malaysia's Commitment to SDGs and the Potential of Floating Solar Panels for Sustainable Energy Generation*
In 2015, the United Nations set 17 SDG goals and aims to achieve them by 2030. Malaysia is one of the countries that agreed to sign compliance with the SDGs. In short, the 17 goals; Zero poverty, zero hunger, good health systems, quality education, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, clean and affordable energy, responsible consumption and disposal, life in water and on land, peace/justice and shared goals. 
From Peter's observation, less than 20% of this goal was achieved in Baram, Hulu Rajang and Kapit parliaments. These areas are located in the interior and are active logging and plantation areas. Therefore, there is much more that the Malaysian government should do to achieve this goal. Related to reuters report dated 27 June 2023. Malaysia, through SEB plans to install floating solar panels at 3 main dams - Bakun, Murum and Batang AI. This according to Peter is a good idea. Because solar energy is much cleaner than coal or hydro. Although there are still issues related to solar batteries. Not only the installation of floating solar on dams but also on buildings that require a lot of energy consumption should be accelerated. To find out more about the development of the SDGs in each parliament in Malaysia. Please visit atpgm sdg.com

*PAS stop dragging/using Islam for their political interests *
The heat of the election campaign in 6 states is getting felt even though the EC has not announced the official date of the election. Today the president of the PAS Party issued a statement that those who use the brand "green wave" to describe the victory of the PAS Party are trying to sow Islamophobia. And Hadi said Islamic administration through PAS shows PAS as a party with integrity. For Iswardy PAS is the party with the least integrity. PAS party leaders have lost the most in defamation lawsuits and a few days ago PAS's victory in the Kuala Terengganu Parliament was annulled due to corruption and money/vote-buying politics. How can Hadi say PAS Party is the party with the most integrity?. Iswardy's question. As for the issue - PAS's victory is Islamophobia. Iswardy questioned since when PAS is a reflection of Islam. PAS is not a party that represents Islam. Iswardy asked that PAS stop dragging/using Islam for their political interests. Therefore, Iswardy asked PAS leaders to emulate Khairuddin Aman Razali (former PAS leader who joined UMNO). Razali today issued a statement, each party should campaign prudently and present the policies and advantages of their respective parties, stop using the term enemy of God and label those who are not the same party as going to hell. Razali is an example of those who have realized that PAS is a party of religious fanatics.</itunes:summary>

At the closing of the Gawai Dayak festival in Sepauh Betong last week. Sarawak Deputy Premier Unggah Embas announced the allocation of RM60 million to develop Sepauh. John thinks it's time to stop the practice of announcing allocations but no details, what projects will be implemented. Such an act is only to attract attention. When Alfred Jabu was still the Deputy Premier of Sarawak. Jamu once announced that it will build a university in Betong and build an agricultural research and development station in Betong. But until the end of Jabu's political life. What Jabu said did not happen. 
John asked the people not to be deceived by promises/announcements that are not accompanied by a master plan. John thinks the majority of Sarawak politicians are not efficient at work, they have crony contractors and most of the projects are in ALIBABA right (get contacts but don't implement, only ask for commissions from contractors). This is the reason why Sarawak remains poor. 
John suggested that all Divisions in Sarawak should have a master plan to guide development. Not just according to what YB said.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*Evaluating Political Parties Based on Efficiency and Fairness, Not Religious Affiliation*
Leaders of political parties, especially the opposition, have started giving speeches to influence voters who will vote in 6 states in peninsular Malaysia. Iswardy gave an explanation to the voters so as not to get caught up with incorrect views. 
MUDA Party President, Syed Saddiq announced that his party will contest solo against any political bloc that contests. This is to show that the MUDA party is more democratic than other parties. At the same time raising concerns of support/votes for PH and the unity government will split. According to Iswardy, MUDA's view is wrong. The purpose of political parties is to gain power. With power will gain the mandate to rule. If MUDA opposes PH and the unity government. At the same time MUDA also fielded candidates to oppose the opposition bloc. Is there any possibility that MUDA will win and form the administration of the state government. Is doing so MUDA more democratic than any other party? As a political party must obey the discipline of the group we support. Currently MUDA supports PH and the unity government. Does putting a candidate against PH&amp; the unity government show that MUDA is more democratic? Iswardy's question. 
Iswardy believes MUDA is manipulated by certain parties. 
Regarding the PAS party. A PAS speaker gave a speech and prayed that the state should be defended by PAS instead of being overthrown by the enemies of Islam. For Iswardy, this is a very dangerous view and can cause racial tension. Iswardy thinks Allah/God is not hostile to anyone or any political party and elections are only about choosing whichever political party gets the power to rule. All political parties registered with the registrar of organizations (ROS) are certified to carry a healthy ideology. Therefore, a party that is too religiously fanatical like this should be rejected by Iswardy's supporters. 
Iswardy advised voters to think rationally when listening to political talks and make the right choice when voting. As long as any government in a state carries out its duties efficiently, fairly and with trust. That should be a voter's consideration, not a matter of his religion.</itunes:summary>

Yb Chew Choon Man, PKR MP for Miri
*Zuraida is a traitor, Must pay 10 million ringgit*
Chew Choon Man was among the panel of lawyers who sued Zuraida (Former Ampang/PKR MP). During the "Sheraton Move", 11 PKR MPs left the party causing the ruling PH government to be overthrown. One of those 11 is Zuraida. 
During the trial in court, Zuraida's legal team argued that the 10 million claim was too high and extreme. 
However, PKR's lawyers argued that the damage faced by PKR was priceless. PKR has built the party's reputation over 20 years. PKR gave a place and a logo for Zuraida to compete. PKR supplies the election machinery, provides funds and full support. Therefore the claim of 10 million is too small. the loss against PKR is priceless. There are Malaysians who consider the PKR party to be the party that betrayed the people's mandate because of Zuraida and her friends' act of party jumping. Because of Zuraidah's actions, the administration of a kingdom collapsed. 
In court, Zuraidah argued that she won because of her reputation, but GE15 proved that with the lack of support from PKR, she lost so badly that she lost her betting money. According to Choon Man, he and PKR's lawyers have been instructed to hunt down the remaining 10 traitorous frogs. On Friday 23 June 2023. The high court ordered Zuraida to pay RM10 million to PKR for violating the terms of the bond binding her to PKR.</itunes:summary>

Peter Kallang, Chairman of Save Rivers
*Contradictory Actions: Samling's Lawsuit Against SAVE Rivers and Praise for their Work - Greenwashing or Genuine Intent?*
Samling has filed a lawsuit against SAVE Rivers, an environmental organization, focusing on eight articles published on SAVE Rivers' website from June 2020 to March 2021. According to the plaintiffs, these articles contain false statements regarding Samling's efforts to obtain sustainable forestry certification. They are seeking 5 million ringgit in damages and a restraining order against SAVE Rivers and its directors. This lawsuit has faced criticism from 160 organizations, who argue that it is a strategic litigation against public participation (SLAPP) case. They believe that the substantial fine could potentially bankrupt SAVE Rivers and its directors, suggesting an attempt to suppress public criticism.


However, it has recently Samling posted a photo on their website showcasing the work of SAVE Rivers. The photo is featured in a section titled "Engaging and Supporting Local Communities." Unfortunately, the webpage erroneously claims that all the photos are credited to Samling's staff.


Peter Kallang, in response to this, has accused Samling of greenwashing. He does not understand the purpose behind Samling's decision to sue SAVE Rivers while simultaneously praising their work. 
Peter Kallang emphasizes that any project involving communities should adhere to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), aiming to fulfill sustainable development while ensuring that no one is left behind.

According to Kallang, any project that affects communities should also provide benefits to those communities, rather than solely benefiting the companies involved and neglecting societal concerns. He believes that this approach is not aligned with the principles of the SDGs.</itunes:summary>

Until now, there is no policy related to the full use of hydrogen and electricity for public use in Kuching. Therefore, the Premier's statement is just to be heard.

According to Chong, the current price of electric cars is RM180k and hydrogen cars are not yet available in the Malaysian market.

Exclusive Report 
A Complainer revealed the bad working condition in Semalajau that related to taib and political cronies
RFS received a complaint from a father - telling that his son who works with Press Metal - Samalaju/Bintulu Sarawak, as a technician lives in a residence (provided by the employer) which is not satisfactory. 
The living quarters are made of iron boxes, poorly ventilated and very hot. He sympathizes with the plight of subordinate workers like his son. But he admitted that high-paid workers were given better housing. In relation to working hours, only one day off is given in a week and there are workers who work 4 consecutive night shifts, from 7pm to 7am. 
This must be a violation of the Sarawak labor ordinance. 
Asked why the Sarawak Manpower Department did not conduct a surprise inspection and take action against Press Metal. He replied that it is not possible to take action against Press Metal, because it is related to Taib and Sarawak's political cronies. He thinks that PMX Anwar Ibrahim has not been able to take drastic corrective action in Sarawak since GPS is still strong and Anwar needs support from GPS to continue as Prime Minister. Because he can't stand the pressure of work. His son has quit his job with Press Metal.</itunes:summary>

In 2018, the Sarawak government gave PL to the palm oil plantation company Mega Makmur Plantation Sdn.Bhd to develop palm oil plantations. However, due to the covid pandemic, the project could not continue. But this year the company involved decided to continue the project. Residents of Rumah Labang Nanga Seridan-Tinjar protested and demanded that their 275 hectares of NCR land be removed from the PL given to Mega Makmur. Residents have set up a blockade and it continues to this day. For now the situation is peaceful, there is no provocation and Jok Jau hopes that all the parties who are in conflict can sit at the negotiating table. Jok Jau expressed his admiration for the residents of Rumah Labang who bravely fought for their rights to NCR land. He hopes that this case of invasion can be resolved properly.

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*Sarawakians who have evidence of Sarawak leader involved in corruption, please report to MACC*
Today the case of Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib's (second son of TYT Taib Mahmud) suit against his stepmother Ragad Kurdi was declared in the Kuching high court. Sulaiman sued Ragad for giving away a large number of shares belonging to his family without consent. 
The case will be heard again on August 15, 2023. 
Meanwhile, Ragad's lawyer asked the public not to speculate. For Iswardy - people are free to express their views as long as they do not insult the court. 
This is also an open opportunity for the people of Sarawak to learn about Taib Mahmud's wealth. This case should be discussed and discussed in Sarawak so that Sarawakians know how rich the political leaders they have supported all this time are, while the majority of Sarawakians are poor. 
PMX's openness asked MACC to state that high-profile leaders if there is evidence that they are involved in corruption and abuse of power should be taken advantage of by the people of Sarawak. The people of Sarawak should not remain silent. Anyone who has evidence please come forward.

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*Sarawakians who have evidence of Sarawak leader involved in corruption, please report to MACC*
Today the case of Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib's (second son of TYT Taib Mahmud) suit against his stepmother Ragad Kurdi was declared in the Kuching high court. Sulaiman sued Ragad for giving away a large number of shares belonging to his family without consent. 
The case will be heard again on August 15, 2023. 
Meanwhile, Ragad's lawyer asked the public not to speculate. For Iswardy - people are free to express their views as long as they do not insult the court. 
This is also an open opportunity for the people of Sarawak to learn about Taib Mahmud's wealth. This case should be discussed and discussed in Sarawak so that Sarawakians know how rich the political leaders they have supported all this time are, while the majority of Sarawakians are poor. 
PMX's openness asked MACC to state that high-profile leaders if there is evidence that they are involved in corruption and abuse of power should be taken advantage of by the people of Sarawak. The people of Sarawak should not remain silent. Anyone who has evidence please come forward.

Iswardy Morni, Lawyer Activist cum Political Analyst
*Time to Expose the Corruption Evidence of Mahathir and Daim*
Iswardy has just been appointed as the information secretary of the PKR and is tasked with making thorough preparations for PKR to face the elections in 6 states which are expected this August. Iswardy explained the development of Tun M's RM150 million defamation case against PMX Anwar Ibrahim. PMX has filed its defense statement through e-filing - among which is evidence that Tun M gave contracts worth RM214.2 million to his children and son-in-law (through Opcom sdn.Bhd) when he was prime minister and finance minister from 1994 to 2021. Mahathir also bail out of KPB (Pos Logistics Berhad (Mirzan Mahathir the majority shareholder) of RM2 billion in 1997. Awarding of contract by Telekom to Opcom Cable Sdn. Bhd worth RM11.157 million and granting of fabrication license to Kencana Petroleum (Owned by Mokhzani). 
According to Iswardy this is enough to prove that Mahathir misused his power and enriched his children who Mahathir has often said did not give contracts/projects to his family when he was Prime Minister. Iswardy also told the development of MACR's investigation into Mahathir's strong ally Tun Daim Zainuddin who was also investigated and his account worth RM2.3 billion was frozen. According to Iswardy, PMX Anwar is a forgiving person, but this disclosure and investigation had to be done to prove the truth in court. 
Regarding the elections in 6 states - Iswardy is still confident that PH will continue to be in power in P.Pinang, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan. While having the opportunity to defeat PAS and PN in Kedah and Terengganu.</itunes:summary>

Nick responded to a media report that said 2 Penan villages in Ulu Baram refused to be involved in the auditing process of the Malaysia MTCS Timber certification scheme for the FMU Forest Management Unit. Nick explained that not only two, but the majority of Penan villages in the UBFA-Ulu Baram Forest Area, disagreed with the auditing process. Only a small number of residents agreed - they were probably influenced by Samling's promises. Nick explained that the Penan association and the Penan leaders from each Penan village (within the UBFA Area) had written a protest letter to Samling and that Samling was not allowed to enter the land of the Penan to log. In media reports, only Long Lamai and Ba Lai are said to refuse auditing. Nick hopes that Samling will respect the rights of the Penan people who do not want logging to damage their forests.</itunes:summary>

*Villagers sue the Sarawak GPS government and Land Survey of negligence in selling Kampung Usahahaya Tukau to Parabena*
Villagers sue the Sarawak GPS government and Land Survey of negligence in selling Kampung Usahahaya Tukau to Parabena. Desmond Ling stated that although Kampung Usahajaya Tukau had lost the legal battle against Parabena in the past in the High Court, Federal Court, and Court of Appeal, which resulted in Parabena owning the village, but one of the plots of land, Lot 189, was previously acknowledged by former Chief Minister Adenan Satem as a kampung with basic amenities such as water and electricity, proving its legitimacy.
He said that Parabena had won the land in a court case years ago, which is an undisputed fact. However, he and 12 other villagers are taking the GPS government and Land Survey to court to seek compensation for the loss of their agricultural and residential land.
Desmond Ling pointed out that Parabena had already sold the land to multiple developers who now intend to develop it. The villagers have repeatedly approached Lambir State Assemblyman DR Ripin to address this issue but have not received any assistance.
He also mentioned that Awang Tengah is one of the directors of Parabena. He stated that if a people's representative has a vested interest in the matter, no matter how the people seek help, they will not receive any response.
Desmond Ling noted that although Parabena is currently accusing three village representatives of refusing to relocate, he and the other 12 affected villagers have decided to hire a lawyer and file a lawsuit against the GPS government and Land Survey on June 17. This way, neither Parabena nor the developers can utilize the land until the lawsuit is resolved in court.
He pointed out that during Taib's tenure, he used his power to allocate the land in Tukau for his sister Raziah Mahmud's development, despite the village already having the status of a kampung. However, the land was transferred to Parabena, which is owned by his sister.
He said that if such actions are carried out by the top leaders, the lower politicians are also affected and will not assist the villagers.</itunes:summary>

*Lack of Government Planning Raises Concerns for Sarawak's Agricultural Sector  *
According to recent reports, the Sarawak Timber Industry Development Corporation (STIDC) is exploring the use of bamboo as a renewable resource to drive the timber industry in Sarawak. While this initiative holds promise, concerns have been raised regarding the government's lack of comprehensive planning and support for the agricultural sector.
Diog comment that, in the past, the government's extensive logging practices have led to a reduction in primary forests, prompting the need for alternative industries to replace timber. 
The proposal to promote bamboo as a sustainable alternative has garnered attention, with potential applications in various commercial products. However, questions arise about the government's preparedness to support this transition.  
Market response and the provision of market support and outlets for bamboo products remain unclear. Additionally, it is essential to determine if the government offers subsidies or agricultural supplies to facilitate the cultivation and commercialization of bamboo. Without proper support, farmers may struggle to navigate the challenges of fluctuating prices of oil palm, increasing costs of fertilizers and disinfectants, and the unsold produce, such as black pepper.  
Furthermore, concerns have been raised about the discontinuation of agricultural courses for farmers in Puncak Borneo. The absence of courses and follow-ups indicates a lack of government commitment to providing farmer training, which is crucial for the development and success of the agricultural sector.
  In light of these issues, it is imperative for the government, local representatives, and the GPS government to address these concerns and provide explanations for the lack of comprehensive planning and support for the agricultural sector. Only through collaborative efforts and proactive measures can the government ensure the long-term sustainability and growth of Sarawak's agricultural industry.

John Brian, Chairman of the Sarawak Dayak Nation Party PBDS.
*Dayaks should be given a chance to become CM*
In the Sarawak CM's speech at the Gawai Dayak dinner at BCCK Kuching last weekend. The CM of Sarawak said that the Sarawak government is committed to advancing and improving the living standards of the Dayak people. The CM of Sarawak also requested that the Dayak people work hard to develop their land and achieve excellence in Education. John praised the Sarawak CM's speech as the sweet words of a politician.
According to John, in order to advance the Dayak people, the Sarawak government must be fair. The Dayak people's land ownership rights and consolidation of land should be expedited. Yayasan Pendidikan Sarawak should provide assistance without favoritism so that the Dayaks are also given scholarships to continue their studies abroad. After that, there should be a balanced composition in the state civil service. Currently the Dayaks are only given low-ranking positions. More importantly, political power should not be controlled by just one race. Dayak people should also be given the opportunity to become Premier and TYT. John also blamed the Dayaks who were in the Sarawak GPS government. Because they are afraid and do not dare to present an argument to oppose the monopoly of power by the Malays. They are afraid because they want to stay in the position, salary and position they currently have. Even though the majority of Dayaks are poor.</itunes:summary>

*Dayaks should be given a chance to become CM*
In the Sarawak CM's speech at the Gawai Dayak dinner at BCCK Kuching last weekend. The CM of Sarawak said that the Sarawak government is committed to advancing and improving the living standards of the Dayak people. The CM of Sarawak also requested that the Dayak people work hard to develop their land and achieve excellence in Education. John praised the Sarawak CM's speech as the sweet words of a politician.

Thomas Tegong Laka-, Former Radio RTM Sarawak DJ 
*PMX want “Segulai Sejalai”, meands No one left Behind*
As a person of Iban nationality, Thomas felt proud when PMX raised the theme of Segulai Sejalai as the theme of national unity. According to Thomas, the meaning of segulai sejalai is "progress together". This means that PMX wants all races in Malaysia to progress together and that no one is left behind in backwardness and poverty. Thomas also agreed with the recommendation of UPM political science professor, Prof Datuk Dr. Jayum Jawan. The phrase Segulai is appropriate in implementing the national unity agenda. Thomas acknowledged that the Iban people are a very divided nation in politics, also poor and backward. Therefore, because of that with the leadership of PMX Thomas hopes that the iban people will be able to unite to support him. Thomas also reprimanded the Iban leaders in the Long houses who still cannot accept the leadership of PMX - where there are still Long  houses that have not put the Prime Minister's poster on the Ruai of their Long houses. On the other hand, there is still a poster/picture of the previous prime minister. Thomas insists that is a backwards attitude. Anwar Ibrahim is far more capable than Najib Razak, Muhyiddin Yassin is even more open than Tun Mahathir. The Iban people should unite to support PMX and should propose that Iban language faculties be established in local universities.</itunes:summary>

Willie Kajan from Long Terawan Mulu
Rampant logging activities lead to increasingly hotter climate
The country is expected to experience a weak El Nino phenomenon starting this month, which will escalate to a moderate level by November, according to the Minister of Natural Resources, Environment, and Climate Change, Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad. He stated that this phenomenon is expected to result in a reduction of rainfall by 20 to 40 percent from June to October, particularly in the southern states of Peninsular Malaysia, western Sarawak, and eastern Sabah
Willie claimed that his Long house has been experiencing hot and dry weather for the past month so much so that the creek that supplies tap water to the residents of Long Terawan has dried up. Residents had to take water from the Tutoh river which was quite far from their Long houses. Not only that, the weather they faced this year according to Willie was unusual (abnormal) than the previous year. The weather is dry so that the rice crop does not grow. He compare to the past decades, and think that the cause is human activity such as excessive logging and the release of pollutants from industry. 
Willie requested that the authorities take appropriate action.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*The 2021 audit report debate that the opposition fear will let all Malaysians know about Muhyiddin’s problems as PM and the weaknesses of PAS and PN*
PAS and PPBM (PN- Perikatan Nasional) have started to attack the PMX leadership in their talks around Selangor. Azmin Ali (PPBM) and PN election director Muhammah Sanusi claimed Anwar Ibrahim is the king of liars - Anwar has failed to lower petrol prices. The value of the ringgit is getting weaker. Selangor is governed by Menteri besar Amiruddin (a person from Johor) who is not from Selangor. Anwar does not deserve to talk about poverty, because he is not from a poor family. The 1974 Baling demonstration was Anwar's way to become popular and PAS should govern Selangor and Penang so that the two states are more advanced.
Iswardy answered - PH has started lowering the price of petrol since 2018 and the states administered by PH have shown an increase in GDP every year. On the other hand, the state governed by PAS is getting poorer until the people suffer - there is no clean water. PN and PAS claim that if they are given the opportunity to govern Selangor and Pulau Pinang . The country will be more advanced. But the fact is that the state that PAS governs is getting poorer and many young people run away to developed states such as Selangor and Pulau Pinang. According to Iswardy there is no record to show that PN and PAS are excellent at governing. Therefore their leaders slander and vilify the PMX administration to hide their weaknesses. In fact, according to Iswardy, PN and PAS leaders fear their weaknesses will be revealed when they do not allow the report of the national audit chief for 2021 to be revealed in parliament. According to Iswardy, if the report is disclosed to the public. Malaysians will know the weaknesses of the PAS/PN administration during the Muhyiddin Yassin administration era (will affect votes for PN in the elections in 6 states). PN intends to cover up all the abuses they do when there is an emergency and parliament is not allowed to sit. However, the reform of parliamentary institutions carried out by PMX allows the information in the audit report to be disclosed for public knowledge so that it is more transparent and satisfies the people's day as taxpayers. Iswardy asked all Malaysians to follow his FB live tonight, where he revealed what was mentioned in the national audit chief's report 2021.</itunes:summary>

Roland Engan, Sarawak PKR Chairman
*Addressing Illegal Logging: Calls for Action and Transparency in Sarawak's Forest Management*
The Minister of Natural Resources and Sarawak Urban Development - Awang Tengah Ali Hasan reported that 264 cases of illegal logging were recorded for the period 2020- and 2022. He said this when wrapping up the debate for his ministry in the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly. Awang Tengah also informed that the Sarawak government has established a special task force to combat illegal logging. Roland suggested that the task force include local residents, NGO leaders and community leaders. 
Relying on drones and satellite images alone is not enough - according to Roland. For Roland some things should be improved. Among them. Complaints of forest encroachment and illegal logging from rural communities should be taken seriously/action. Forest enforcement officers in an area should be fully responsible for logging cases that occur. The village head should be responsible for reporting illegal logging activities. The government should be clear about logging concessions based on previous records, location, concession, who is the main license holder and who is the logging contractor. Loggers need to answer to residents when asked, there needs to be transparency and valid maps should be easy to obtain/refer to, if necessary. And what is no less important is that the amount of wood cut should be the same as the amount declared. There are many cases where the cut wood is not the same according to Roland. So he agreed that roadblocks should be done at all bus stops - where enforcement officers can check if necessary. This was done during the Adenan Satem administration. 
Regarding the difference in the definition of illegal logging - Roland emphasized that the logging license given by the state government is not in bulk. It is strict with certain conditions. There are certain trees that cannot be cut down, there are certain lands that cannot be encroached upon and logging is permitted with the consent of the residents. If this can be followed, disputes related to logging will be overcome. Roland insisted that corruption is the cause of illegal logging. He urged the MACC to act decisively. So that the issue of illegal logging in Sarawak can be addressed.</itunes:summary>

Mr Rosli from kampung UsahaJaya Tukau Miri
*Political Manipulation of Internal Conflicts to Undermine Harmony in the Village*
Last week, Parabena sent people into the village to destroy the villagers' farms. This has caused some villagers to fear, some considered abandoning the farms, and some considered abandoning their homes.
It is said on 06.06.2023, the same team will come again for the next task according to the instructions from the Parabena who ordered the work to destroy the Villager's Farm. 
Rosli said that this is Parabena's trick, trying to use actions to intimidate the villagers and make them retreat; what's more, Parabena uses the disharmony in the village to destroy the harmony of the villagers, which is the usual practice of business and politician.
He pointed out that the police are now sent to patrol the village, which undoubtedly puts another kind of pressure on the villagers, rather than being relieved or protected.

Nicholas Mujah, General Secretary of the Sarawak Dayak Iban Association (SADIA) 
The Legacy of Taib Mahmud: Land Seizures and Allegations of Corruption in Sarawak
Nicholas Mujah describes the issues faced by the community in UsahaJaya Tukau, Miri, as a result of the people's lack of awareness of their rights and their failure to advocate for their permanent status. It is known that during Taib Mahmud's over 30 years in power as Chief Minister, he silently carried out land seizures, granting rights to his family members such as his sister Raziah Mahmud to obtain the land in Tukau Jaya. It is not denied that the late Tok Nan (Adenan Satem) had previously awarded the land to the people of UsahaJaya Tukau, but it should be understood that before Tok Nan became Chief Minister of Sarawak, Taib Mahmud had already been in power and it is certain that the area had already been given to his sister and Parabena Company.
As a result, the people living on government land in Sarawak are considered temporary occupants until the authorized developer with a Provisional Lease takes over according to the law. The people have no permanent place because of the corrupt political system at play.
However, if the people want to take action, the only way is through international law, specifically Economic Justice, which many are unaware of.
If the people have conducted community mapping, it cannot be used to obtain grants without the approval of government agencies such as the Department of Land and Survey. However, the mapping can be used during court proceedings. Through political will, the oppressive system that affects the people can be changed.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Political Analyst
*PAS Internal Turmoil Presents Opportunity for Unity Government to Win Six State Elections*
PAS President Hadi Awang claimed that his party was offered a place to join the unity government led by PMX Anwar Ibrahim. Next 2 days interval, PAS Deputy President Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man acknowledged the same, but insisted that he would remain loyal to the PN led by Muhyiddin Yassin. According to Iswardy there are indeed lobbyists who do the work as alleged. But it was not done by the top leaders of the Unity government. The next question - why did this issue arise? According to Iswardy it is a psychological attack by both parties against their respective political enemies to win the elections in 6 states.
Hadi (Team A) claimed that Pas was invited to join the unity government. But according to Anwar there was no invitation for PAS to join the unity government. But at the same time, PMX Anwar opened the doors of cooperation with Kelantan PAS leader Nik Anduh (Team B) (son of former Chief Minister Nik Aziz). This makes it difficult for PAS to move in Kelantan. Pas split into 2 teams which paved the way for defeat. Hadi is also worried about the possibility of Nik Abduh revealing the secrets of money politics / where PAS leaders receive political funds from UMNO. Hadi tried his best to show that his party is a principled political entity and asked that PAS supporters stand firm with PN and fight as a team to win elections in 6 states. Hadi insisted that - despite being offered a place in the government - his party refused because it was only given a small role - despite having the largest seat. DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang claimed that Hadi is suitable for the position of Prime Minister because PAS has the most seats (49). According to Iswardy this was Kit Siang's spicy joke against Hadi. With the cooperation of a small number of PAS leaders who are willing to expose Hadi's flaws and misbehavior. The chances of a unity government capturing Kelantan, Kedah or Terengganu are brighter - according to Iswardy.

Munan Laja, the Permanent Chairman of the Sarawak Dayak Iban Association (SADIA)
*Dayak Concerns: Urgent Call for Prime Minister's Attention*
SADIA is the largest and most active Dayak Iban association in Sarawak. Last Friday night, SADIA successfully organized a Pre-Gawai dinner in Sibu City. PMX Anwar Ibrahim has sent his Political Secretary, Chang Ming Kai, to represent him. The Sarawak state government also sent their representatives. 
In his speech, the Permanent Chairman of SADIA, Munan Laja, asked for PMX's help in addressing three problems faced by the Iban people at this time.  
Firstly, the issue of frequent Panjang house fires. From 2015 to 2021, a total of 121 Panjang houses have burned down. Munan requested PMX to consider establishing a Special Fire Unit Team for all 500 Panjang Dayak Iban houses throughout Sarawak. These specially trained teams would be able to help prevent and extinguish fires should they occur.  
Secondly, addressing the shortage of Iban language teachers, which has become a serious problem in Sarawak. According to the latest data, primary and secondary schools in Sarawak have fewer than 2,100 Iban teachers. Munan urged for measures to overcome this shortage. 
 Thirdly, Munan requested the allocation of capital to develop Native Customary Rights (NCR) land. In the upcoming 2024 Budget, Munan hoped that PMX would consider appropriate allocations for this purpose. However, SADIA is aware that the biggest problem with Dayak NCR land is the lack of measurement and title deeds. Munan called for the cooperation of the federal government in providing the necessary resources to measure NCR land, while the state government should allow NCR lands to be measured under section 18. 
Munan believes that cooperation between the central and state governments in this matter will help solve the problem and benefit the people. Munan extended his wishes for a happy Gawai Dayak celebration to all the people of Sarawak.

Jessica Binawi from SAM legal team
*SAM Supporting Save Rivers in the Fight Against SLAPP* 
As a team of environmental activists, SAM wholeheartedly support Save Rivers in their campaign to "stop the SLAPP" (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation). 
Save Rivers plays a crucial role in defending environmental and land rights, particularly in cases where communities are affected by logging activities without their consent. It is essential to support Save Rivers as they raise concerns about the environmental impacts that directly affect communities, including Indigenous communities, who rely on the environment for their livelihoods. If we don't raise these issues with relevant authorities and government agencies, who will? Save Rivers serves as a voice for communities, shedding light on their struggles.

There was a similar case in Pahang involving Raub Australian Gold Mining Sdn BHD v Hue Shieh Lee, where decisions at all levels were in favor of Hue Shieh Lee. The concept of SLAPP is recognized in other countries as well. However, this is the first time Save Rivers has explicitly mentioned the issue of SLAPP in their documents. It is evident that these actions are not intended to seek relief but rather to intimidate defenders, creating a climate of fear that discourages others from speaking up.</itunes:summary>

If we don't raise these issues with relevant authorities and government agencies, who will? Save Rivers serves as a voice for communities, shedding light on their struggles.

There was a similar case in Pahang involving Raub Australian Gold Mining Sdn BHD v Hue Shieh Lee, where decisions at all levels were in favor of Hue Shieh Lee. The concept of SLAPP is recognized in other countries as well. However, this is the first time Save Rivers has explicitly mentioned the issue of SLAPP in their documents. It is evident that these actions are not intended to seek relief but rather to intimidate defenders, creating a climate of fear that discourages others from speaking up.</description>

Roland Engan, Sarawak PKR Chairman
*Urges Collaborative Action for Basic Facilities and Environmental Protection in Baram*
Madani Politics in the Unity government.  Roland explained that he is ready to cooperate with Baram Member of Parliament Yb Anyie Ngau (GPS) to ensure that basic facilities can be built immediately for the convenience of Baram residents. 
Among the problems that have not yet been resolved are the lack of identity documents, roads, telecommunication/internet facilities, education, health, clean water supply and 24-hour electricity supply to Panjang villages/homes in Baram. 
In line with the principles of Civil Malaysia and the formation of a unity government at the Federal Level. So the state government should support all the efforts brought by the federal leaders to bring basic facilities to the people of Baram as soon as possible - even if there is no formation of a unity government at the state level. 
PKR will continue to rebuke the GPS Sarawak government's policies related to logging and the environment if they are contrary to the requirements of local and international laws. But will be conveyed in the politics of diplomacy, instead of provocation. This is to ensure that the administration of the unity government is not affected. Roland insisted that the GPS Sarawak government's logging policy has caused environmental/climate change problems and affected the local population. Therefore, logging should be reduced and eventually stopped/Zero logging.</itunes:summary>

Boyce Ngau Anyie, Vice Chairman of GCRAC (Gerenai Community Rights Action Committee).
*Local Resident Boyce Challenges APS Chairman's Criticism of Save Rivers in Baram*
An NGO named Advokasi Pribumi Sarawak (APS) has recently criticized SAVE Rivers in relation to the Samling lawsuit. They also supported Telang Usan assemblyman Dennis Ngau's statement in March, where he expressed support for logging companies due to the job opportunities they bring to the orang ulu community. 
However, locals, including Boyce from Loh Moh in the interior of Baram, are unaware of the existence of APS and its Executive Chairman Nigel Raymond.


Boyce emphasized that Nigel and APS are completely unknown in Baram. He further stated that the 5 million defamation lawsuit filed by Samling Plywood against Save Rivers is an attempt to intimidate local residents into refraining from speaking out against Samling's logging activities near their homes in the Panjang area. Samling claims that Save Rivers issued a false statement without the consent of local residents regarding logging in the Gerenai FMU Area. 
However, communities in Long Moh and Lepo Agak have asserted that they were not informed or in agreement with the logging activities. Samling is demanding 5 million in damages, an apology, and a commitment from Save Rivers not to repeat the alleged defamatory statement.


Boyce stressed that Samling's actions will not silence them, and they will continue to speak out and protest against logging in their area. Samling has attempted to present their logging activities as environmentally sustainable through the use of FMU (Forest Management Unit) terms. However, according to Boyce, the logging activities remain unchanged from before. The lawsuit is scheduled to resume on September 18-20, 2023.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, PKR Baram Communications Director
*Licenses and PLs do not grant Logging Companies the right to do anything on the indigenous people's land and forests*
The defamation lawsuit filed by the logging giant company, Samling, against Save Rivers Chairman Peter Kalang has sparked anger among local activists and NGOs. Dennis Along had the opportunity to be present at the Miri High Court last week, but the case was postponed to a new date. 
The granting of logging licenses/PL to Samling does not confer absolute power. Licenses and PLs have their limitations. They do not grant Samling the right to do anything on the indigenous people's land and forests that would harm the environment and disrupt the indigenous people's lives. 
The fundamental principle is that the consent of the indigenous people must be obtained before any logging activities take place.


Dennis congratulates YB See Chee How for raising the issue of Gunung Mulu National Park as a World Heritage Site. Re-nominating Mulu National Park as a World Heritage Site with the addition of Criterion V is appropriate because it includes the Penan and Berawan settlements. Criterion V means being an outstanding example of traditional human settlement, land use, or sea use that represents the interaction between humans and the natural environment. Criterion V is included to recognize the role of the indigenous people/Penan living in Mulu, says Dennis. 
However, Dennis explains that the tourism benefits in Mulu are monopolized by the Taib Mahmud family, GPS, and their cronies. Local residents should also be given opportunities. Dennis is grateful that a few years ago, they successfully drove out the palm oil plantation company, Radian Laggon (owned by Abu Bekir, now sold to Yee Ming Seng), which tried to turn Mulu into a palm oil plantation center. We are preserving Mulu not for commercial value but as a precious heritage for future generations, says Dennis.</itunes:summary>

*The Sarawak Indigenous Advocacy Organization NOT represent Baram People*
The Sarawak Indigenous Advocacy Organization (APS) claiming that recent logging activities mentioned by Save River will affect the livelihood of the people of Baram. APS Executive Director Nigel Raymond stated that logging companies have greatly contributed to building roads, sending Baram children to school, and providing job opportunities. 
Jack Jau from Long Panai, is get shock by the above statement. 
Jack argues that APS does not represent any community in Baram. The Baram People are unfamiliar with Nigel Raymond and APS, and unaware of their activities. Suddenly, they emerge with a statement that strongly favors YB Dennis Ngau and the logging company. 
Jack does not deny that logging companies provide some job opportunities, but the environmental damage caused by logging activities is beyond imagination. The people of Baram should be cautious in supporting certain NGOs that suddenly appear and claim to represent the interests of Baram's residents.</itunes:summary>

Jack Jau, Resident of Baram from Long Panai
*The Sarawak Indigenous Advocacy Organization NOT represent Baram People*
The Sarawak Indigenous Advocacy Organization (APS) claiming that recent logging activities mentioned by Save River will affect the livelihood of the people of Baram. APS Executive Director Nigel Raymond stated that logging companies have greatly contributed to building roads, sending Baram children to school, and providing job opportunities. 
Jack Jau from Long Panai, is get shock by the above statement. 
Jack argues that APS does not represent any community in Baram. The Baram People are unfamiliar with Nigel Raymond and APS, and unaware of their activities. Suddenly, they emerge with a statement that strongly favors YB Dennis Ngau and the logging company. 
Jack does not deny that logging companies provide some job opportunities, but the environmental damage caused by logging activities is beyond imagination. The people of Baram should be cautious in supporting certain NGOs that suddenly appear and claim to represent the interests of Baram's residents.</description>

Iswardy Morni, Political analyst
*Voting GPS Out as a Path to Transforming into a Prosperous State*
YB Fazzrudin, The chief political secretary of the Premier of Sarawak is also a member of the Tupong state legislative assembly, rejecting the assumption that Sarawak is a rich state but many people are poor. He also questioned the e-kasih data. 
Iswardy challenges YB Fazz to submit alternative data - if you don't believe in e-kasih data. The e-kasih data is managed by the National Bank Data Center and Innovations- Detailing the name, address, income, education, occupation and dependents of a family head. Questioning the validity of data from an accredited agency is unwise, however you can submit data that may be more accurate. Iswardy argued - it is illogical for a state with an average annual income of 12 billion to fail to eradicate poverty. The population of Sarawak is only around 2.5 million people. However, the people of Sarawak remain poor because the wealth of Sarawak is monopolized by a certain group only and the Sarawak government's policy maintains a large number of poor people so that it is easy to manipulate. The easy way is to change the GPS, the people of Sarawak will be free from the shackles of poverty. Iswardy reminded the people of Sarawak to vote wisely to change their own socio-economics.</itunes:summary>

Baru Bian, Adun of Bekalalan State Assembly and lawyer 
*the Ministry of Home Affair and the Malaysian government made the correct choice in not pursuing the appeal of “Allah” issue*
Baru Bian believes that the Malaysian government's decision to withdraw the appeal against the High Court's ruling on the use of the word "Allah" by Christians is accurate and aligns with the federal constitution. 
The case, brought by Jill Ireland Lawrence Bill, concluded that Christians can use the word "Allah" and other Arabic terms in their religious publications for educational purposes. Baru Bian emphasizes that the administrative directive issued by the Malaysian cabinet in 1986, which prohibited non-Muslims from using certain Arabic words, exceeded the authority of the Ministry of Home Affair. 
Therefore, he asserts that the Ministry of Home Affair and the Malaysian government made the correct choice in not pursuing the appeal. He clarifies that the high court's judgment applies nationwide, contrary to a statement made by PMX Anwar Ibrahim suggesting it only applied in Sarawak. The case surrounding the use of the word "Allah" has faced significant delays, affecting not only Jill Ireland but also churches such as the Roman Catholic Church, which were ordered to refrain from publishing their magazines containing the term. Similar cases have arisen in Sabah as well.  While acknowledging that PMX's statement may have political motivations, Baru Bian urges all parties, including politicians, to issue accurate statements based on truth and facts. He highlights that the court's decision upheld the rights of Christians within the framework of the law and the constitution. He calls for a focus on truthful discourse rather than using the issue for political gain. Baru Bian also appeals to Muslims who genuinely understand the Quran to express their position that Islam does not prohibit followers of other religions from using the word of God, emphasizing that this stance is applicable worldwide. He suggests that it would be contradictory if Malaysia acted differently. 
Baru Bian urges PMX to be resolute and courageous in upholding the truth. Baru Bian commends this positive move, emphasizing that it respects religious freedom in Malaysia, as outlined in the Malaysian Agreement 1963 (MA63).

This is because her late husband was actively involved with the PH during his lifetime. The village chief has taken away the right to receive assistance from the longhouse project, which is highly unfair.

Even though her husband has passed away, the resentment towards Mrs. Intai, who is now a widow, remains strong among the village chief. During the COVID season, she was not given any food or other aid, unlike other members of the community who received all the assistance.</itunes:summary>

Simon Siah, Counsel for SAVE Rivers
*Samling's Attempt to Silence Save Rivers through Accusations*
Today's trial involving Samling Company has been postponed for the fourth time, with plans to resume in September. Two of the delays were due to the judge's involvement in other criminal cases, while the other delay was a result of Samling claiming insufficient evidence and requesting additional documents. Simon Siah said that, Samling Company asserts that the accusations against Save Rivers are unfounded. They claim that they sell timber after logging to foreign markets and assert that they obtained consent from local communities during the logging process. However, the reality is that the logging operation took place in March 2020, during the outbreak of the pandemic, and Samling did not consult the affected communities or obtain their consent. During that period, the communities in the interior Baram were unaware of the events unfolding and did not approve of Samling's intrusion and logging activities. Save Rivers and The Gerenai Community Rights Action Committee (GCRAC) sent letters to Samling requesting an explanation, but Samling did not respond. Instead, they suggested that these NGOs inquire with the Malaysian Timber Certification Council (MTCC), which also failed to provide a formal response. As a result, Save Rivers sent a letter accusing Samling of encroaching upon customary lands in the interior Baram. However, Samling denies these allegations. He said that Samling Company has filed a lawsuit against Save Rivers and its board members, alleging that their intention is to silence individuals like Peter Kallang. This is known as a "SLAPP" (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation). We want to make it clear that we will respond to this accusation through our defense.
Samling is suing SAVE Rivers for allegedly defamatory statements with regards to consultations of local communities in the context of the certification process under the Malaysian Timber Certification Scheme MTCS, endorsed by PEFC International. Samling is seeking an apology, an injunction stopping SAVE Rivers from reporting community claims, and damages in the sum of 5 million ringgit or 1.1 million US-Dollar — approximately 45 times SAVE Rivers’ annual budget.

Pertaining to Samling's sustainable certification, it is important to note that Samling holds logging licenses from the Sarawak government. 
There are two types of licenses granted to Samling. The first type is issued by the state government, allowing Samling to log trees in various locations. The second type is the sustainable certificate required for exporting timber to other countries.  
Samling has been operating under the Malaysian Timber Certification Council (MTCC), which is not recognized in other countries. International buyers typically prefer timber from companies with Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification.   Samling is currently seeking FSC certification. 
However, concerns have been raised by local communities regarding a lack of consultation during a research study conducted by certain individuals. Furthermore, the consultations were held with individuals who are not from the affected communities. These actions are considered violations according to FSC regulations. As a result, Samling's application for FSC certification is still pending, and ongoing investigations are being conducted into the complaints raised by the communities of Long Moh, Sian, and Ba Adang.

John Brian, Permanent Chairman of the PBDS Party
*PBB Sarawak control the politics and economy of Sarawak*
Today, Borneo Post reported that TA ANN Holding has received a 30-year lease renewal. Hamed Sepawi, the Executive Chairman of TA ANN, stated that this renewal signifies significant recognition of our efforts in sustainable forest management. TA ANN manages the logging areas of FMU Song-Kapit, FMU Pasin, and FMU Raplex. All three logging areas have obtained forest management certification under the Malaysian Timber Certification Scheme (MTCS), accredited by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). 
John said, "This confirms what I said yesterday, that Sarawak is ruled by crony capitalism. Hamed Sepawi is the cousin of TYT Taib Mahmud. He is a proxy for Taib Mahmud. He is the Treasurer-General of PBB/GPS and also the CEO of SEB. He is also the Executive Chairman of TA ANN Holding. This explains how the leaders of PBB Sarawak control the politics and economy of Sarawak. I want to ask, what benefits have the locals in Kapit and Song gained from the logging activities of TA ANN? Song is among the poorest districts in Malaysia. Has the company contributed to CSR projects such as building schools, roads, providing clean water, or supplying free electricity? After earning millions in profits from logging for decades?" "
John hope the voters realize that although Sarawak shows economic growth and results, it is being plundered by political rulers and wealthy tycoons who will continue to control Sarawak's economy even after their deaths. Their cronies will carry on the same practices. 
John explained that his PBDS party leadership will collaborate with PH in the upcoming state elections, and he hopes the people of Sarawak realize that PBB and GPS are not the right choices.

John Brian, Permanent Chairman of the PBDS Party
*Politics as a License to Get RichPolitics as a License to Get Rich*
The Economist magazine in 2023 ranked Malaysia in third place, behind Russia and the Czech Republic, in the Crony Capitalism Index. This indicates the extent of cronyism practices in Malaysia. According to John Brian, all of this stems from political power. Politics is used as a means to become wealthy. Let's take the example of a retired teacher who was poor but became rich shortly after winning the election representing the BN. It all starts when election candidates representing BN are funded by wealthy capitalists for their campaigns. When these sponsored politicians win in the elections, it becomes their obligation to repay the money that was used during the campaign. They do this by awarding contracts and projects worth millions to these capitalists. 
According to John, in Sarawak, it is not a secret that companies like Samling, Shin Yang, Rimbunan Hijau, Ta Ann, WTK, and KTS have funded the election campaigns of BN candidates in the past. As a result, the wealth of Sarawak is plundered by a group of wealthy capitalists. It is truly unfortunate for Malaysia that 6% of the population monopolizes the country's wealth. The administration of Anwar Ibrahim began to break the monopoly on rice, sugar, diesel/petrol in a short period of time. Only by changing the government can this practice be eradicated, says John Brian.

Dennis Along, head of communication PKR Baram
*Controversy Surrounding Larry Sng's Appointment as Chairman of Malaysian Timber Industry Board*
Dennis objected to the appointment of Larry Sng as the Chairman of the Malaysian Timber Industry Board (MTIB). Larry, who is a Member of Parliament for Julau and the President of the Malaysian United Indigenous Party, was appointed to the position by Deputy Prime Minister Fadilah Yusuf, who oversees the portfolio of the Ministry of Primary Industries. 
Dennis asserted that Larry was not qualified for the position because he has never been at the forefront of opposing illegal logging or defending the rights of indigenous people to the forest. Instead, activists such as Peter Kalang or Dr. Ellie Luhat should be appointed to the position because they have proven expertise and understanding of sustainable environmental conservation. 
Larry is also not a principled leader. After Pakatan Harapan fell in 2018, he left the People's Justice Party and now infiltrated the PMX administration through an appointment by GPS. If Larry had stayed principled in PKR, he would likely have been a minister by now, said Dennis, not appealing for a position like the Chairman of MTIB.

Larry, who is a Member of Parliament for Julau and the President of the Malaysian United Indigenous Party, was appointed to the position by Deputy Prime Minister Fadilah Yusuf, who oversees the portfolio of the Ministry of Primary Industries. 
Dennis asserted that Larry was not qualified for the position because he has never been at the forefront of opposing illegal logging or defending the rights of indigenous people to the forest. Instead, activists such as Peter Kalang or Dr. Ellie Luhat should be appointed to the position because they have proven expertise and understanding of sustainable environmental conservation. 
Larry is also not a principled leader. After Pakatan Harapan fell in 2018, he left the People's Justice Party and now infiltrated the PMX administration through an appointment by GPS. If Larry had stayed principled in PKR, he would likely have been a minister by now, said Dennis, not appealing for a position like the Chairman of MTIB.

Adrian Pereira, Executive Director at North South Initiative
*Unresolved foreign worker problem in Malaysia may affect corruption perception and migrant labor reputation*
The Malaysian government announced the approval of 500,000 foreign workers' entry into Malaysia in January. However, problems arise when these foreign workers are not provided with work upon arrival, leading to their dumping in temporary detention depots. These foreign workers have to pay between RM 10,000 to RM 25,000 to agents to enter Malaysia, and the employer who employs them also pays almost the same amount to the agent. 
Despite this, the problem of placing workers still persists. Pereira pointed out that every time the approval for foreign workers to work in Malaysia is opened, dozens of millionaires are born immediately. This is the main problem that needs to be investigated and resolved by the Malaysian government. Pereira also emphasized that if employers and workers work together, they can defeat agents who take advantage of foreign workers entering Malaysia. Furthermore, it should be noted that suppressing the wages of foreign workers also suppresses and affects the wages of local workers.


Pereira explained that in 2018, during the PH administration, a committee was established to investigate and find a solution to this problem. However, until now, the results of the investigation and findings of this committee have not been presented. If the problem of foreign workers in Malaysia remains unresolved, Malaysia's position in the corruption perception index, human trafficking, and migrant labor will continue to be questioned at the international level. Andrian urged the PMX administration to solve this problem as soon as possible and prosecute those involved in corruption and abuse of power in court.</itunes:summary>

-------------------
Iswardy Morni, political analysis
*UMNO will likely choose PH and use the next four years to strengthen the party before GE16*
Rumors are circulating that the government led by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim will fall in the near future. This matter was further fueled by a Facebook post from Muhamad Faiz, a member of the PPBM party's Supreme Leadership Council, who claimed that PN already has the support of 126 members of parliament.  
According to Iswardy, the possibility of changing the government through SD support is no longer valid after the anti-party jumping act came into force. But if it is true that PN/PPBM has more support than the majority, there is only one way to change the government, which is to bring a vote of confidence or a vote of no confidence in parliament. This is the only way allowed by the constitution, and the King is bound by the constitutional amendment after the party hopping act is passed and enforced by parliament.  
When asked about the worst scenario Anwar might face after the elections in six states, Iswardy stated that even if the worst scenario happens and all six states fall into the hands of the opposition, the federal government will still remain in place. The possibility of UMNO changing its stance in support of PN is also unlikely because UMNO and PN+PAS both draw support from Malays and Muslims, while PH and PKR have widespread support from all races and religions. UMNO will likely choose PH and use the next four years to strengthen the party before GE16.  
Commenting on Hadi Awang's meeting with Tun Mahathir to sign the Proclamation of the Malays, Iswardy confirmed that PAS is a party that sells religious and racial products. Hadi hopes that by doing so, his party will gain strong support from Muslim Malays. Hadi affirmed his support for the proclamation in accordance with the principles of Islamic struggle. However, Iswardy believes that Hadi is wrong because the Prophet Muhammad's struggle crossed racial boundaries. Iswardy thinks that the concept of Madani Malaysia is encouraging and that Malaysians as a whole are accepting it. It remains to be seen whether Hadi's innate race and religion narrative or Madani Malaysia will be more popular in the six states that will face elections in a few months.

Yb Sin Tze Tzin, PKR MP for Bayan Baru
In these 5 months, Anwar has done many reforms and there will be more in the future
SUARAM Executive Director- Sevan Doraisamy thinks Anwar Ibrahim will be the worst prime minister in Malaysian history if he fails to fulfill his reform promises. Doraisami questioned Anwar's political determination. According to Doraisami, it is not yet on the list of laws to be amended by the government; Security Offenses Act (Special Measures), Crime Prevention Act, Terrorism Prevention Act, Dangerous Drugs Act which still have clauses of detaining suspects for a long period of time without having to prosecute them in Court.
Sim asks SUARAM to be rational and give Anwar some time. In these 5 months, Anwar has done many reforms and there will be more in the future. Among them, according to Sim - Parliament Reform - there is a special question and answer session with the Prime Minister (PMT). Abolish the mandatory death penalty in drug cases and establish a special Parliamentary select committee that has full power to summon anyone to testify. Add YB Sim- most importantly, a Law Reform Committee has been established, which is examining outdated laws that need to be amended. According to YB Sim- despite leading the Unity government, there is nothing stopping Anwar from reforming his administration. According to Sim, Anwar carried out reforms in his administration faster than all previous prime ministers, besides Anwar is the prime minister who listens to the voice and welfare of the people the most.
The question is not how quickly outdated laws are amended. But an amendment should be neat, orderly and precise.</itunes:summary>

Dr. Elie Luhat, Former Employee of Sarawak Timber Development Corporation (STIDC)
*The issue of workers in the logging industry has been ongoing*
Apolinar Tolentino, the Asia Pacific Representative for International Workers, stated that  vulnerabilities in the MTCS scheme let timber companies get away with withholding foreign workers' passports and paying wages below the minimum wage.
Dr Elie Luhat admitted that this was an issue he faced decades ago while serving as a member of the "task force for Sarawak manpower" while working with STIDC. He did not expect that these problems still remain unaddressed. He hopes that the new Prime Minister of Malaysia will choose an experienced person to find a solution to this problem. If it is not resolved quickly, it will affect the country's image and the Prime Minister's reputation. He is willing to volunteer if asked to do so.



Ngang Kuja from Long Tanyit-Linau stated that he has worked with Shin Yang Logging Company for more than 10 years, but the salary offered is only RM1300. Due to the recent implementation of FMU, his salary has increased slightly to RM1500. However, with the increase in the price of goods, RM1500 is not enough. According to Ngang, Shin Yang has started to reduce the hiring of foreign workers to meet FMU requirements. When asked if foreign workers' passports are kept by the employer, he is not sure. However, according to him, foreign workers are free to quit their jobs if they do not agree with the offered salary.

Iswardy Morni, Political analyst
*Anwar acted wisely and cautiously, which is why the reform is slowing down*
Leaders of the Opposition Party are trying hard to tarnish the image of PMX through the Aidilfitri Open House Program that will be held in the six states that will hold elections next July. They labeled the council as a waste of people's money, abuse of power, misuse of government machinery and challenging the dignity of the state government. This all shows the opposition state's fear of Madani's influence and concept brought by PMX - according to Iswardy. 
Iswardy explained that every prime minister is given an allocation for a holiday event and it is up to the prime minister to hold an open house event anywhere with the amount of allocation that has been approved in the 2023 budget.
John Berthelsen wrote a Long article in the Asia Sentinel. Among John's criticisms, Reform is moving slowly under the administration of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Due to the participation of UMNO/BN and GPS in the Unity government. Iswardy admits that this statement is true, but according to Iswardy it is better to slow down than to stall the reform. Without the participation of UMNO/BN and GPS, Anwar will not be able to rule. This means the reform is stuck. However, with Anwar's wisdom, the Malaysian government today is still better. Although the reforms that Anwar wanted to bring were somewhat stuck. Anwar was not free to act because he was pressured by UMNO. But until now Anwar seems to still maintain his popularity and integrity by not interfering in judicial affairs, no corruption and abuse of power. Anwar acted wisely and cautiously.</itunes:summary>

Nick Kelesau, Penan activist
*Wild boars died of disease, and the Sarawak government needs to send people to investigate*
It seems that wild boars in the inland areas have been infected with a disease and died, and gradually there are fewer and fewer traces of wild boars in the forest. This happened during the epidemic period, and there seems to be no improvement after the epidemic.
RFS received a public report that wild boars seemed to be infected with a disease and died, but it was uncertain what bacterial infection it was, and the government did not send anyone to investigate. Nick Kelesau said that the traces of wild boars have not been seen for a long time. During the epidemic, he found wild boars that died of illness in the forest, but he never saw any wild boars again afterwards. Inland people have not hunted wild boars for a long time. He believes that it is an infection with a pathogen, and it is also possible that outsiders entered the inland through the mountain road and hunted wild boars recklessly, causing the decrease in the number of wild boars. However, he also stated that the government has not investigated this matter. He pointed out that inland people, especially the Ben Nan people, have not eaten pork for a long time. Deer, four-legged snakes, and other animals can still be hunted. Nowadays, the price of pork on the market is soaring, and many inland people cannot afford the high price of pork, so they seldom eat pork. He hopes that the relevant authorities can pay attention to this matter because the reasons for the reduction in the number of wild boars must be found, and the reduction in the number of wild boars is more or less related to ecology.

Agnes Padan, the Mykad activist ad Women's Leader of the Malaysian National Party
*Anwar was urged to act to give rights to citizens who do not have an identity card*
Agnes reported that, Lina Samuel- Sufferer of Stage 4 Colon cancer whose MYKAD was recently confiscated by JPN/KDN. She died at Lawas Hospital at 7 this morning. There was no clear reason given by JPN why his MYKAD was confiscated, apart from being informed that the case is still being investigated and the deceased is suspected to be Indonesian. Agnes insisted that if a case is still under investigation there is no need to confiscate the late Mrs. Lina's MYKAD and the withdrawal of citizenship rights/status should be done in an orderly manner and in accordance with the law and the constitution. What happened to Mrs. Lina added pressure on a 65-year-old woman who is fighting cancer. There are many cases of elderly people still without identity cards in LAWAS/Sarawak. The case involves Basar Arun and Joseph Pengirang - both are over 70 and have fought to defend the sovereignty of this country during the emergency and confrontation against Indonesia. They were given a bravery medal/medal by Queen Elizabeth-for risking their lives fighting against the enemy of the country. Agnes requested that PMX Anwar Ibrahim's administration take the field, understand the problems facing the people of Sarawak that have not been resolved for a long time. There are so many problems faced by the rural communities of Sarawak who do not have identity cards. They are denied their rights as citizens, the right to health care, educational opportunities and employment. We hope that PMX will immediately mobilize efforts to give rights to all citizens.</itunes:summary>

Peter Kallang, Chairman of Save Rivers Network 
*Forests don't need to be destroyed, but they can still provide great benefits*
A briefing was held regarding UBFA - UPPER BARAM FOREST AREA held on Wednesday. 
According to Peter Kallang, the project is nearing implementation stage. It will involve an area of 283,500 hectares, covering 32 villages in forest areas. This is the only project in Sarawak that involves forest conservation with the participation of three countries and several local and international NGOs. 
Malaysia, Korea, and Japan have expressed their commitment to contribute in terms of expertise, research, and finance. Meanwhile, several local and international NGOs will also do the same. 
The UBFA project will go through several phases such as reforestation, road/bridge/infrastructure construction, telecommunications, and water resources. Several committees have been formed to ensure that each plan runs smoothly. Although there are still logging concession areas within the UBFA area, UBFA management will ensure that every logging activity adheres to the concept of environmental sustainability. 
So far, logging has destroyed the environment and left forest destruction and river pollution to indigenous people. However, with the new concept of UBFA, logging may be replaced with better forest benefits such as "carbon traps". Simply put, forests don't need to be destroyed, but the benefits of the forest should be returned to the indigenous people. Peter believes that with the sincerity shown by the communities involved, the project is likely to succeed.</itunes:summary>

*None of Penan appoint as tribal leaders, hope Senator Abun Sui can help them to voice out their problem*
Two weeks ago there was an oath-taking ceremony for the appointment of Kapit District Council (PBT) councillors, and a few months ago there was a new appointment and the extension of the service period of tribal chiefs- penghulu and penmanka in Belaga District. Gereng Jadum felt sad because none of the counselors and tribal leaders were appointed from the Penan Murum tribe. While Penan Murum has many problems. 
He said that, If a community leader/counselor is not appointed from among them, How their problems will be able to be expressed. Their problems now are- no schools, no clinics, no roads/roads of logging companies, no Mykad, many children have dropped out of school and most unfortunately we have no source of income. The government that moved them to make way for the construction of the Murum Dam, did not take care of their welfare. 
Gereng said that, they were not given lots of agricultural land for farming - food crops were not given. Therefore, they request YB Senator Abun Sui to come and visit them immediately to solve their problem. Because- all these problems they have voiced to YBs from GPS for a long time. But till today they failed to solve our problem. They really hope that Yb Senator will come to visit and see for himself their situation.</itunes:summary>

Their problems now are- no schools, no clinics, no roads/roads of logging companies, no Mykad, many children have dropped out of school and most unfortunately we have no source of income. The government that moved them to make way for the construction of the Murum Dam, did not take care of their welfare. 
Gereng said that, they were not given lots of agricultural land for farming - food crops were not given. Therefore, they request YB Senator Abun Sui to come and visit them immediately to solve their problem. Because- all these problems they have voiced to YBs from GPS for a long time. But till today they failed to solve our problem. They really hope that Yb Senator will come to visit and see for himself their situation.</description>

Pushpan Murugiah, CEO of the Center to Fight Corruption and Cronyism (C4)
*The motive behind the MACC investigation against Judge Nazlan raises questions*
Pushpan gave feedback regarding the MACC investigation proving that Judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali violated the judge's code of ethics and had a conflict of interest when presiding over the international SRC Case trial involving Najib Razak. If judge Nazlan is guilty will the SRC case be tried again?.
According to Pushpan, all processes have been completed to prove Najib guilty. So there is no need for a retrial. Violation of the judge's code of ethics and conflict of interest are different matters that are outside the jurisdiction of the MACC. On the other hand under the jurisdiction of the chief justice and the special tribunal. The motive behind the MACC investigation against Judge Nazlan raises questions. The simple answer at this time is to gain the sympathy of the public so that Najib Razak can be pardoned by the King, on the grounds that something was wrong during the trial process. Pushpan stressed that the public should be given the right information so that they realize that Najib has been given all the rights he deserves. But the public should also know so many losses as a result of the trial of Najib's case and losses as a result of breach of trust, corruption and abuse of power that Najib did. So the public should make the right decision - should Najib be given sympathy and forgiveness or not.</itunes:summary>

Abdul Aziz Ismail, Selangor Anti Human Trafficking Council
*Malaysia is facing a critical Migrant crisis*
On 16 April 2023- Human Resources Minister V Sivakumar was called by the MACC to record a statement regarding the corruption investigation of the approval of hiring foreign workers. Several officials at the Ministry of Human Resources were detained by the MACC.
It is estimated that there are 5 million illegal immigrants in Malaysia and 95% are victims of labor exploitation. On 17 January 2023, the Minister of Home Affairs confirmed that 120 thousand foreign workers have landed in Malaysia and this number will continue to increase to 500 thousand by the end of 2023. This is all to meet the needs of the workforce.
According to Aziz, the law to protect foreign workers is sufficient. But the problem now is enforcement and corruption. Asked why there are so many cases of foreign workers being brought into Malaysia but there is no work for them?. Aziz explained that all this is due to syndicates that want to make quick profits through the exploitation of foreign workers. For example a company that only needs 100 employees but reports that they need 200 employees. When these 200 workers arrived in Malaysia, only half got jobs. The company that colluded with the agent has received money from the fees charged and the excess workers who do not have work actually need to be sent home by the employer and their fees must be refunded. In fact, the employer can be sued in court and subject to action under existing laws. But all this did not happen.
The laxity of enforcement and the widespread occurrence of corruption cause the problem of foreign workers without permits, foreign workers who have expired, foreign workers who later become slaves and tools of human trafficking. The offense of advertising non-existent jobs. Applying for job quotas exceeding the requirements and MOU between G to G- as a marketing tool, irresponsible agents should be monitored and supervised by the government

Iswardy Morni, Lawyer Activist cum Political Analysis
*Clearing the name of Najib and UMNO through the Royal Pardon*
Iswardy gave his views on UMNO's efforts to appeal for the release of Najib Razak through a royal pardon with the authority of the King. Iswardy thinks that in the latest political competition - UMNO is lagging far behind PH and PN. One way they think is right to restore UMNO's image is through the release of Najib Razak. With Najib's release, UMNO can campaign that Najib is clean of all wrongdoing and so are other UMNO leaders. Then confidence and support for UMNO will recover. According to Iswardy- UMNO leaders are still plagued by denial syndrome that Najib is innocent. Instead the court and the majority of Malaysians – convinced that Najib is guilty. Therefore. If Najib is released it will give a bad image to the government and judicial institutions. Applying for pardon is Najib's right, but Iswardy thinks it is too early to grant pardon to Najib. Because there are still many court cases that Najib will face in the near future. It would be fairer if the matter of pardoning Najib was thought about/requested after the completion of all the cases he faced.</itunes:summary>

Jeffrery Ngui, Chairman of Parti Muda Sarawak
*Gov must listen to the people, meet the people to understand the economic difficulties*
The government has an obligation to protect the people, especially those at risk such as Employees Provident Fund (EPF) contributors who do not have enough savings for their old age, says Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli.
Jeffrery Ngui comment that, If there is any other way to replace the people to take EPF money to solve the immediate problems, please do it. 
He believes that the people are now facing economic difficulties, whether it is dealing with daily life, or various car loans, housing loans, etc., so he urges the government to provide solutions to help the people tide over the difficulties.
Bank loans are not easy to apply for and approve, he said. As a result, many private loan companies have risen, allowing people to easily obtain loans with high interest rates to obtain emergency cash, but this will only make the people more and more miserable.
However, he also agrees that many people apply for EPF not for emergencies, and some people apply for cars and gold, which is not an emergency at all.
He said that the government must go to the crowd to understand how ordinary people view the current economic situation. He said, especially businesses, street vendors, or migrant workers, most of them will tell that business is bad and the economy is bad.
He urged the government to prohibit the people from using their own money for emergencies, then it must provide a comprehensive auxiliary method to help the people overcome difficulties,</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Head of Information PKR Baram
*Federal return land to state Gov? then GPS please do the same, return land to the people*
Deputy Prime Minister- Fadilah Yusuf explained that the Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change is in the final stages of refining the land return mechanism to the state government. This matter was accelerated as a result of Sarawak Premier Abang Jo's insistence and agreed by PMX during his visit to Sarawak last January. State LAND, owned by the federal government for school buildings, health facilities, fire stations, police stations or military bases, must be returned to the state if there is no sign- sign it will be used within the next three months. The decision, agreed at a meeting of the Action Council for the Implementation of the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MTPMA63) chaired by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, applies to all states in the country.
Dennis admits this is a good development. But Dennis expects the state government to do the same. That is, any indigenous people's land that is given to a large company or used for development purposes. If not used should be returned to the indigenous people (land owners). Giving an example in Mulu, 28 years ago an area of 250 hectares of native land was given to the Bursa Mulu company to develop a hotel. Only 3 acres are used for Hotel buildings and approximately 10 acres for other uses. This means that hundreds of acres of the remaining land are abandoned and failed to be developed. 
Dennis got information that the Bursa Mulu company leased the land to a financial institution and made a profit of tens of millions of ringgit. Therefore he request that the land for such cases be returned to the indigenous people (land owners). The state government should not have a double standard. Dennis believes that cases like the one in Mulu happen all over Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

Dennis Along, Head of Information PKR Baram
*Federal return land to state Gov? then GPS please do the same, return land to the people*
Deputy Prime Minister- Fadilah Yusuf explained that the Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change is in the final stages of refining the land return mechanism to the state government. This matter was accelerated as a result of Sarawak Premier Abang Jo's insistence and agreed by PMX during his visit to Sarawak last January. State LAND, owned by the federal government for school buildings, health facilities, fire stations, police stations or military bases, must be returned to the state if there is no sign- sign it will be used within the next three months. The decision, agreed at a meeting of the Action Council for the Implementation of the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MTPMA63) chaired by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, applies to all states in the country.
Dennis admits this is a good development. But Dennis expects the state government to do the same. That is, any indigenous people's land that is given to a large company or used for development purposes. If not used should be returned to the indigenous people (land owners). Giving an example in Mulu, 28 years ago an area of 250 hectares of native land was given to the Bursa Mulu company to develop a hotel. Only 3 acres are used for Hotel buildings and approximately 10 acres for other uses. This means that hundreds of acres of the remaining land are abandoned and failed to be developed. 
Dennis got information that the Bursa Mulu company leased the land to a financial institution and made a profit of tens of millions of ringgit. Therefore he request that the land for such cases be returned to the indigenous people (land owners). The state government should not have a double standard. Dennis believes that cases like the one in Mulu happen all over Sarawak.</description>

Barnie Lasimbang, environmental activist
*EIA Reporting and Tough Enforcement Can Effectively Stop Illegal Logging*
Barnie Lasimbang, an environmental activists from Sabah were responding to a recent statement by Telang Usan assemblyman Dennis Ngau, who said that logging posed no threat to the indigenous community in Baram, to which the organisations described the statement as “unfounded”.
Barnie Lasimbang saidd that Dennis Ngau's statement is regrettable and irresponsible, and it also shows that Dennis Ngau does not pay attention to environmental protection and does not care about the people.
EIA is a compulsory document, especially for those so called big development projects. To ensure that there are development projects involving land, such as building dams, logging, etc.
The Sarawak government did not follow through on its words. Although it said it wanted to protect the forest, it did not implement it, especially the basic EIA report was not carried out or provided. This does not give confidence to the affected communities.
There are many floral and fauna in the forest that we don’t know about, so if the logging is carried out without environmental investigation, it will bring great damage to the forest, the environment and the local community.
Yet EIA, important as it is, is useless without strong enforcement action. EIA and law enforcement must work together to protect forests and local communities.</itunes:summary>

Logging activities in Ulu Baram will have devastating environmental consequences and severely impact the surrounding indigenous communities, say 47 organisations through a joint statement initiated by Biodiversity, Agroecology, Climate Change and Habitat (B.E.A.CC.H) and the CSO Platform for Reform Sarawak.
Thomas Jalong said that, currently an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report is not mandatory for clearing virgin forests in Sarawak and is only necessary for re-entry. The requirement and process for an EIA report should be standardised for all logging activities in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak, with mandatory public participation as is the norm in Peninsular Malaysia.
Thomas Jalong said that, Before logging, EIA report is a must. As early as the 1990s, they had asked the Sarawak State government to provide EIA report, especially which projects would be carried out in the interior baram, as well as those catchment areas and water source areas, or areas that would affect the natural environment. We can see with the naked eye that the river is no longer clear, but dirty.
In addition, the NGOs, activists and communities also require logging companies to have FPIC (Free, Prior and Informed Consent) , because the land involved includes the customary land of the indigenous people, or the range that affects the soil quality and rivers, and the range that will affect the nearby communities, all need to have FPIC. But none of them have do it
In the past, there were only two floods in a year, but now there are frequent floods, especially more than five floods last year. These are the problems that come with clearing forests, monocultures, riverside communities, frequent and severe flooding.
Neither the government nor the logging company considered the incident to be a "threat," he asked Is it a threat if it directly threatens human life? He said that people's lives are affected, livelihoods are affected, climate change. . . These are threats.
Thomas Jalong said that social responsibility is what every companies should have. He said that before any activity, there must be peaceful discussions, not an attitude of intimidation or disregard. This is the basic principle of protecting the rights and interests of indigenous peoples. It has been recognized internationally and also recognized by Malaysia.</itunes:summary>

After the PKR Special Congress a week ago, TUN Mahathir's attack on PM Anwar became more serious. Almost every day Tun M issued a statement scolding/objecting to Anwar. Among them; It is not wrong to topple Anwar if he does not govern well. Malay people are poor after I resigned. I have never been greeted by low-ranking officials when I went abroad (Anwar failed to meet King Salman/Saudi Arabia) and most recently TUN M sent a demand letter to the LOD asking Anwar to retract the "rogue" allegations - as said at the PKR Special Congress last week. Otherwise Anwar will be sued within 7 days.
All this was done by TUN M so that he remains relevant in the Malaysian political arena. It will be difficult for Tun M to win the suit, because Anwar's statement is in general - aimed at all politicians who enrich their families and cronies while holding high positions in the government. But what felt was Tun M. Today the leader of the opposition - Hamzah Zainuddin, president of PPBM and President of PAS failed to attend a special question and answer session with the Prime Minister in parliament. But in the absence of the PM they screamed in parliament. Today the PM confirmed that government parliamentarians were also investigated by the MACC and the PM explained that he had no problem with the appointment of the MACC chief commissioner appointed by parliament. All these reforms were carried out by Anwar to improve the administration of the country.
But the opposition chose the issue of Anwar's failure to meet the King of Saudi Arabia - King Salman Abdul Aziz. For the opposition this issue is important to be their campaign material in the elections in the next 6 states. Anwar will be portrayed as not well received by the Arab world. But according to Iswardy- there may be a communication problem. But there is no reason why Anwar cannot visit Saudi Arabia again and meet the country's ruler. To get an official answer from the government, the opposition should submit related questions directly to Anwar. The opposition failed and during the government they also failed.</itunes:summary>

Eric explained that illegal logging like what happened in Ba Abang also happened in Ulu Kakus. 
He believes that these illegal loggers are protected by certain parties. Eric wonders how loggers can hide bulldozers, trucks and logs that have been felled when the forest department conducts aerial/drone monitoring. Eric explained that – before the work of stealing wood was done. 
Agents from these logging companies will meet with tribal leaders/community leaders. Eric believes that the clan leaders are paid a sum of money to not speak out or to cover up the illegal activities. According to Eric, most of the workers are Chinese and they look like gangsters. Eric was very sad when the forest in Ulu Kakus was destroyed and the river was polluted with silt. 
Not only that, these illegal loggers will transport these logs at night so that their activities are difficult to detect.
He said that they don't know how to solve this problem. they hope someone listens to their complaints.
Eric is ready if there is anyone who can help him bring the case of illegal logging in Ulu Kakus to the MACC. Last week RFS spoke with Wesly Ancho from Rumah Alip Tubau, regarding a similar case. 
Please report to the RFS if there is a case of logging in your area.</itunes:summary>

Nicholas Mujah claims that DOPPA misunderstood the European Union's Deforestation-free Products Regulation- EUDR. The EU is not that cruel to restrict the sale of smallholder palm oil. But EU regulations apply to maintain long-term environmental sustainability. 
According to Nicholas, the EU buys and will continue to buy Malaysian palm oil as long as it complies with the criteria of sustainable oil palm plantations, and the EU gives up to 5 years for compliance. Among the criteria required by the EU is legal land ownership and easen. Must not usurp the rights of others/Original. 
Second is social responsibility - respecting the rights, culture and local customs/wills and needs of the local community and thirdly environmental sustainability such as protected forest areas, catchment areas, clean rivers, historic areas and areas of particular importance to the community. As long as all parties comply with all these rules. The EU has no problem buying their commodity crops. 
Nicholas Mujah stressed that the enforcement of the EUDR regulations is important to deal with the issue of unethical farming and confiscation of indigenous people's customary land which is so widespread in Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

According to Dennis, there is a tendency to appoint headman according to the political tastes and wishes of YB in an area. For example, the headman who supports GPS will be appointed and the extension of the position/retention of the position will be supported by YB. But any individual who does not support the GPS party will not be appointed as headman. There was also a change of headman because the existing headman did not support logging or oil palm plantation. So a new headman was appointed to support logging and commercial palm oil plantation activities. 
This situation has happened in several areas in Baram - according to Dennis. The tendency to appoint headman with political motives to facilitate the victory of GPS in Sarawak. But the effect of this Action damaged the harmony of society.

The case of illegal logging in Ba Abang is still under investigation. However, it brings up the appointment of headman that informal was bringing issue that – cooperative with logging companies to exploit the communities rights.
He said the appoinemnt of ba abang headman Arun Nyaling is informal. He explained that Arun Nyaling is an outsider, not born and live in ba abang, but was appointed as village chief not long ago. His appointment is not recognized by penghulu. According to the procedures established in the 1980s, the appointment of a village head must first be recommended or recognized by penghulu. This is a custom that continues to this day, and there is a letter of appointment from the DO. However, Arun Nyaling did not get a recommendation from penghulu or a recommendation letter from DO at all. But there is a full set of documents to appoint panai erang.
He also elaborated on the appointment of village chiefs in Ba Pakan and long bedian, and said that these cases were not appointed in accordance with the procedures, and were opposed by villagers and acted against the interests of the village. He said that if there are related cases in other cases, he can be contacted directly.
He said that some people would say that these village chiefs who were not appointed according to the procedures were used by politicians to carry out illegal activities to exploit the rights of the indigenous. He said that as long as there are related allegations, they need to be investigated immediately and verified. But in any case, as long as the village head is not appointed through normal channels, it is an informal appointment.</itunes:summary>

[TOP STORY]
The dialogue that took place at the Telang Usan District Office did not go smoothly for trivial reasons. The absence of YB Dennis Ngau is very sad. The reason that the map brought by Penan Ba Abang is invalid cannot be accepted. The forest office can only show a valid map and the Penan Ba Abang can state their Protected Area or forest reserve on the map. Therefore, logging cannot be carried out in protected areas. For the case of the cancellation of Arun Nyaling's appointment which has been taken to court - on 11 April 2023 further arguments will take place in the Miri high court. The problem of the 2 tribal leaders in Ba Abang, Ba Pakan and the case in Long Bedian are among the cases that Mr. Roland Engan is currently paying attention to. Roland strongly objected to the act of using the appointment of a new tribal leader as a license to get permission to log. The right to log does not actually rest in the hands of a village head. Instead it should be decided jointly by all the villagers involved.</itunes:summary>

[TOP STORY]
On Saturday, a "Malay Proclamation" event that was set to feature former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad was cancelled for the second time. Dr Mahathir was previously reported warning that the Malays could lose all powers completely after the next two general elections, adding that the political dominance of the people was being seriously eroded. 
PKR president Anwar Ibrahim has directed the authorities to arrest any quarters that use religion and race to incite against the government, even as he urged party members at the party’s special congress on Saturday (March 18) to counter the nativist narrative peddled by the Opposition with “facts and argument”.
The directive marks the first time the prime minister has indicated a willingness to use the law against his political rivals, something he had avoided likely for fear of being accused of wanting to stifle dissent.</itunes:summary>

The directive marks the first time the prime minister has indicated a willingness to use the law against his political rivals, something he had avoided likely for fear of being accused of wanting to stifle dissent.</description>

GLC ialah syarikat komersial yang berkaitan dengan atau milik kerajaan.

Carbon credits will provide a new source of revenue for Sarawak ranging from RM315 million to RM1.039 billion annually and A Sarawak Climate Change Centre will be established as a centralised hub for coordinating, managing, supporting, and guiding all climate change and carbon trading initiatives in Sarawak, said Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.
Izdham Zainal comment that, If Sarawak wants to build focus on carbon credits and it need to build carbon collection storage (CCS) , it will cost a lot. He said, a CCS needs 1.5-2.5billion, it is only based on the cost, and the operating cost is another calculation method, which is an expensive figure, which is not listed by the Sarawak government.
We urge the Sarawak government who want to establish a climate change center that needs to consider the cost, as well as whether there are facilities and professionals, so that it can be carried out more transparently. Rather than promoting, but see no results. They must list all the details.
So far we have not seen any details, no direction, what is the benefit to the people?
Carbon credit is still very new, and everyone does not know how to proceed. The form of buying and selling is also very complicated. A bit like bitcon too, uncontrollable.
According to Global Forest Watch (GFW) from 2001 to 2020, Malaysia lost 8.39Mha of tree cover, during this period Sarawak had accounted for the most tree cover loss at 3.04Mha. this is worrying.
Deforestation is what we need to solve, don't just look at the latest technology, but it doesn't solve the problem of illegal logging.</itunes:summary>

Muhyiddin Yassin on Monday was accused again in court. This means Muhyiddin has been charged with 7 charges so far. Among other things, the accusation was misuse of power to get political contributions. Muhyiddin questioned that UMNO and PKR also previously received political donations/contributions.
Iswardy explained that there is a clear difference between political donations or bribery/bribery. A gift/contribution or gift can be considered as corruption when the donor/gift directly benefits from his actions. For example, the Bukhary Equity company got a contract from the Jana Wibawa Program where the former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin has authority/control over the awarding of the contract or project. Because it has benefited from the contract, the company involved has made a political donation (200 million) to Muhyiddin Yassin's party. However, if any party or company gives a donation/donation to a party - but the party involved does not get any benefit/profit from the donation. That is considered a political donation. But Iswardy admits that there is indeed a group related to this matter. That is why the current government will present a political funding bill in the near future. The question - isn't UMNO also doing the same thing as Parti BERSATU. Iswardy insisted that, as Hamzah Zainuddin said - if there is evidence UMNO is also involved. Please disclose. PMX has reiterated that he will not protect anyone. Although by doing so the stability of his government is threatened.</itunes:summary>

Semalam 12/3/2023- mesyuarat bulanan PKR Baram, sebagai ketua penerangan - Dennis berasa terpanggil untuk menjelaskan beberapa inisiatif yang dilaksanakan oleh kerajaan persekutuan. Perlu setiap cabang PKR di seluruh Sarawak- memberi penerangan bagaimana memohon dan membantu penduduk pedalaman mendapat manfaat daripada inisiatif-inisiatif ini.
PKR Baram membuat ketetapan untuk membantu 1. menghapus kemiskinan tegar (seperti sasaran kerajaan pusat), 2. Membantu rakyat Baram mendapat dokumen pengenalan diri/kerakyatan dan mencadangkan 3. penubuhan koiperasi untuk usahawan tani. Ketiga-tiga usaha ini akan diuruskan oleh sebuah secretariat. Buat masa ini semua penduduk Baram boleh datang ke pejabat PEWARIS BARAM atau ke Ibu Pejabat PKR Baram di Miri- untuk petugas-petugas disana membantu. Sama ada mengisi borang secara online atau serahan dokumen secara menual. Bagaimanapun dalam jangka pangjang- Dennis berharap supaya kerajaan memberi peruntukan agar program sebegini dapat diadakan di Kawasan yang lebih terpencil (Khususnya Kawasan penan). Dimana terdapatnya ramai keluarga miskin yang amat memerlukan bantuan. Dennis juga berharap supaya Perdana Menteri melantik orang asal/aktivis yang berwibawa untuk membantu mempercepatkan usaha ini.

Baram PKR made a decision to help 1. eliminate extreme poverty (as the central government's target), 2. Help the people of Baram get identity/citizenship documents and propose 3. the establishment of cooperatives for agricultural entrepreneurs. These three efforts will be managed by a secretariat. For now, all Baram residents can come to the BARAM HEIRS office or the Baram PKR Headquarters in Miri - for the officers there to help. Either fill out the form online or submit documents manually. However, in the long term - Dennis hopes that the government will allocate funds so that such programs can be held in more remote areas (Especially penan areas). Where there are many poor families who are in dire need of help. Dennis also hopes that the Prime Minister appoints an authentic person/activist to help accelerate this effort.</itunes:summary>

Semalam 12/3/2023- mesyuarat bulanan PKR Baram, sebagai ketua penerangan - Dennis berasa terpanggil untuk menjelaskan beberapa inisiatif yang dilaksanakan oleh kerajaan persekutuan. Perlu setiap cabang PKR di seluruh Sarawak- memberi penerangan bagaimana memohon dan membantu penduduk pedalaman mendapat manfaat daripada inisiatif-inisiatif ini.
PKR Baram membuat ketetapan untuk membantu 1. menghapus kemiskinan tegar (seperti sasaran kerajaan pusat), 2. Membantu rakyat Baram mendapat dokumen pengenalan diri/kerakyatan dan mencadangkan 3. penubuhan koiperasi untuk usahawan tani. Ketiga-tiga usaha ini akan diuruskan oleh sebuah secretariat. Buat masa ini semua penduduk Baram boleh datang ke pejabat PEWARIS BARAM atau ke Ibu Pejabat PKR Baram di Miri- untuk petugas-petugas disana membantu. Sama ada mengisi borang secara online atau serahan dokumen secara menual. Bagaimanapun dalam jangka pangjang- Dennis berharap supaya kerajaan memberi peruntukan agar program sebegini dapat diadakan di Kawasan yang lebih terpencil (Khususnya Kawasan penan). Dimana terdapatnya ramai keluarga miskin yang amat memerlukan bantuan. Dennis juga berharap supaya Perdana Menteri melantik orang asal/aktivis yang berwibawa untuk membantu mempercepatkan usaha ini.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Hari ini-Mantan Perdana Menteri Muhyiddin Yassin (semalam ditahan dalam lokap SPRM) didakwa dimahkamah sesyen Kuala Lumpur- dihadapan hakim Azura Alwi. Muhyiddin didakwa atas 6 pertuduhan. 4 pertuduhan salah guna kuasa dan 2 pertuduhan pengubahan wang haram membabitkan RM232.5 juta ringgit. Muhyiddin dituduh menggunakan kedudukannya selaku perdana Menteri dan presiden Parti BERSATU untuk mendapatkan RM232.5 juta daripada 3 syarikat dan seorang individu diantara 1 mac 2020 hingga ogos 2021.
Penyokong Muhyiddin menuduh PMX Anwar Ibrahim mendalangi pertuduhan tersebut dan mendakwa ia bermotif politik, satu usaha melumpuhkan parti BERSATU. Iswardy meminta supaya rakyat Malaysia memberi ruang kepada mahkamah dan agensi penguatkuasaan membuktikan sama ada Muhyiddin bersalah atau tidak. Berpegang kepada prinsisp seseorang tak bersalah sehingga dibuktikan bersalah di mahkamah.Dakwaan penyokong Muhyiddin bahawa tiada bukti kemasukan wang ke dalam akaun Muhyiddin sebaliknya hanya wang derma didapati masuk ke akaun parti BERSATU- tidak dapat dikaitkan dengan salah guna kuasa dan rasuah.
Iswardy menjelaskan bahawa pada 6 mac 2023- Menteri di jabatan perdana Menteri (Undang-undang dan reformasi institusi) mengeluarkan kenyataan media bahawa- akta pembiayaan pilihanraya dan akta berkaitan had perjawatan perdana Menteri hanya 10 tahun akan dibentangkan di parlimen tidak lama lagi. Ini bermaksud pertadbiran PMX bukan sahaja berusaha membenteras rasuah dan salah guna kuasa malah melakukan reformasi institusi, khususnya berkaitan pendanaan pilihanraya. Kerana sekiranya sesebuah parti dengan mudah mendapat wang daripada pihak-pihak berkepentingan, membeli undi dan memanipulasi system pilihanraya kerana ada kuasa wang. Maka ini merosakkan demokrasi.</itunes:summary>

Anwar carried out his duties as a transparent and trustworthy prime minister. Anyone who commits corruption will be prosecuted in court. Guilty or not depends on the evidence presented. Iswardy made a comparison - during the 33 months PN ruled - there were no corruption charges against the main PH leaders (except Syaid Sadik), because there was no corruption offence.

Iswardy was a little surprised how Hadi made mathematical calculations, the formula of how Anwar's government would fall. Hadi said PN/PAS offered GPS for the position of Prime Minister. But according to Iswardy, UMNO/BN (30) and PH (82) are enough to form a government with a simple majority, without the participation of GPS. With ROS confirmation that the position of President and UMNO party deputy does not need to be contested. This will strengthen the position of Zahid Hamidi and will also strengthen the position of Anwar Ibrahim. According to Iswardy again. With the enforcement of the anti-party hopping act, it is quite impossible that what Hadi imagined and hallucinated will happen. It is clear that Hadi is still suffering from acute political depression.
Apart from that, Hadi also issued a statement that it is allowed to deliver political talks in Mosques and Suraus. Again according to Iswardy- Hadi's view is contrary to the wishes of the majority of Muslims. The prohibition of political speeches in mosques is the wish of the head of the Islamic religion in each state (sultan and TYT). If Hadi issued a statement to the contrary. This means he disobeyed the sultan. According to Iswardy- the real meaning of banning political talks in mosques is to maintain the harmony of every individual who comes to worship. Hadi's attitude of being political all the time gives a bad example to the younger generation.</itunes:summary>

&gt; Ngang Kuja, headman of Penan Long Tanyit, Linau-Belaga River – Older Penan people stand firm against logging 
&gt; Barnie Lasimbang, land rights activist from Sabah – bring investment that good to Malaysia, not cause damage to environment 
&gt; Mr Bobby Williams, President of PBDS – Yes, people will choose a non-Malay as PM over a Malay leader who is corrupt
&gt; Mr Robert from Bintulu, Social activist – Hadi Awang still playing religion issue, he can’t lead the people forward 

[TOP STORY]
We ask the question - to what extent the Penan people depend on the logging industry to get work. According to Ngang, the elderly are strongly against logging because it damages the environment. Just last week, five Penan settlements in the Linau River were hit by floods (Long Abit, Long Kajang, Long Tanyit, Long Lidem and Lusong Laku) and their rice cultivation was completely destroyed. Logging also brings along Indonesian workers who marry Penan women. Indonesians do not respect Penan cultural customs. Now the young Penan are good at drinking alcoholic beverages - which are brought in by the logging camp workers.
But there are also Penan people who depend on working with logging companies. Specifically the Shin Yang company. Although the salary paid is relatively small. But the Penan people have no choice. Since 5 years ago, when FMU was implemented, the salary paid has increased slightly. According to Ngang- the Penan people in the Linau river need a logging company for job opportunities and logging roads. If there is no log road, they will not be able to reach Belaga town. Ngang hopes that Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim can personally come to the Penan settlement and see for himself the hardships they are experiencing. Ngang thanked the RFS for giving him the opportunity to express the problems faced by the Linau River Penan people.</itunes:summary>

[BERITA UTAMA]
Dennis berharap Menteri sumber Asli , alam sekitar dan perubahan Iklim – harus ada keazaman yang kuat untuk membenteras pembalakan haram di Sarawak. Ia bukan mudah tetapi tidak mustahil dilakukan.
Menurut Dennis, orang awam di Sarawak sudah sampai ke tahap putus asa/muak untuk membuat laporan kepada SPRM berkaitan pembalakan haram. Aduan demi aduan  yang dilaporkan tidak diambil Tindakan. Lebih-lebih lagi terhadap syarikat pembalakan gergasi.
Bukan rahsia lagi bahawa ada kakitangan kerajaan yang terlibat menyembunyikan maklumat pembalakan haram. Juga ketua-ketua kaum dan ketua kampung terlibat dalam kegiatan pembalakan haram. Ini ada berlaku, telah belaku dan sedang berlaku sekarang. Kerana bukan mudah memunggah kayu balak beribu tan, bukan mudah juga membawa masuk pekerja, lori dan jentolak untuk menebang kayu secara haram. Semua ini dilakukan secara terang-terangan dan dilindungi oleh sekumpulan kakitangan awam, ahli politik dan ketua kaum yang bersubahat.

Dennis hopes that the Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change - should have a strong determination to crack down on illegal logging in Sarawak. It is not easy but not impossible to do.
According to Dennis, the public in Sarawak has reached the point of despair/fed up to make a report to the MACC regarding illegal logging. Complaint after complaint reported is not taken action. Especially against giant logging companies.
It's no secret that there are government employees involved in hiding illegal logging information. Also communities’ leaders and village heads are involved in illegal logging activities. This has happened, has happened and is happening now. Because it's not easy to unload thousands of tons of logs, it's also not easy to bring in workers, trucks and bulldozers to cut wood illegally. All this was done openly and protected by a group of complicit civil servants, politicians and communities leaders.</itunes:summary>

Beliau berkata, penduduk pedalaman sering menderita kerana tidak tahu berunding, jadi beliau menyenaraikan perkara yang perlu diberi perhatian dalam proses rundingan: apabila masyarakat pedalaman menghadapi pencerobohan atau rundingan oleh syarikat pembalakan, mereka mesti mengambil bahagian bersama-sama penduduk kampung bukannya berunding sendirian. Kedua, syarikat pembalakan mesti dikehendaki menunjukkan lesen pembalakan - PEC dan rancangan penuaian, peta dan tarikh akhir projek, dan hanya dengan bahan ini mereka boleh berunding dengan pihak lain. Sekiranya masyarakat tidak bersetuju dengan kandungan dan hasil rundingan, syarikat pembalakan mesti mencari lokasi lain.

Ada pemberi maklumat kepada RFS – memaklumkan bahawa pembalakan haram yang berleluasa di Sarawak dilakukan oleh syarikat pembalakan gergasi yang menceroboh Kawasan hutan tanpa diketahui oleh penduduk tempatan dan pihak berkuasa. Sebagai contoh. Syarikat ini hanya dibenarkan membalak di Kawasan A dengan keluasan 10,000 hektar. Tetapi secara senyap-senyap syarikat tersebut membalak lebih daripada Kawasan yang diluluskan. Ada juga pencuri balak secara kecil-kecilan, yang menebang kayu balak beberapa ratus batang dan menjualnya kepada syarikat balak berlesen. Inilah antara taktik yang dilakukan oleh pembalak haram di Sarawak. Anda yang ada maklumat. Sila hubungi RFS di 013-5515219.

There is a whistleblower to the RFS - informed that rampant illegal logging in Sarawak is carried out by giant logging companies that encroach on forest areas without the knowledge of local residents and authorities. For example. This company is only allowed to log in Area A with an area of 10,000 hectares. But quietly the company is logging more than the approved Area. There are also small-scale log thieves, who cut several hundred logs and sell them to licensed logging companies. This is one of the tactics used by illegal loggers in Sarawak.

[TOP STORY]
The Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change (YB Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad) responded in a parliamentary conference that 90 cases of illegal logging occurred in Malaysia last year 2022 and 60 of them occurred in Sarawak. For Harrison- this is no surprise. In fact, the number may be even greater.
For Harrison illegal logging is grouped into several categories. First- a logging company that is given a logging license in the traditional land area of the original people. This is also illegal logging. The reason is that the timber company has a permit and license from the Sarawak government. But did not get permission from the original people who own the land and wood. Second, under the 1994 NREB ordinance, any logging company that carries out re-logging activities in areas that have been logged (most logging licensees in Sarawak in this category) must prepare an EIA report. But as far as we know - not a single logging company makes/dismisses an EIA report before re-logging activities are carried out. Harrison emphasized that all logging licenses granted are conditional and subject to specific laws, not just in bulk. Logging companies are taking advantage of fooling illegal miners.
Harisson stressed that logging should be stopped immediately because the timber in Sarawak has run out. On the other hand, the government under the leadership of PMX should concentrate and give large allocations to native people to be involved in reforestation with native wood species on a large scale. In fact, not only replanting wood, but growing cane and producing honey organically.
In combating illegal logging, the PMX-led government must have political determination, be free of corruption, have a clear policy and the role of whistleblowers is very important. Enforcers should be firm and not compromise with corruption and abuse of power. Related to the claims of logging companies who say that they practice logging that complies with the Forest Management Unit (FMU). For Harisson FMU It looks beautiful on paper only. But the implementation is far astray. At least the recognition of FMU should be from the owner of the forest/wood where the logs are felled and the results should also be returned directly to the original person as the owner of the logs. Whatever the reason, according to Harrison, logging in Sarawak should be stopped for the sake of environmental sustainability.</itunes:summary>

Since the Dayaks of Sarawak are far behind in many areas. Through a special fund of 1 billion - 300 million to help outstanding Dayak children continue their education to a higher level in the country and abroad. Another 300 million will be used for start-up/venture capital for Dayaks to start businesses or expand businesses and another 400 million will be used in the field of agro-agriculture. The Dayaks are known to have vast land. But there is no capital and expertise and technology to develop it. With this special fund, it will greatly help the Dayak people.
But according to John- the weakness of the Dayak people so far, they are only good at speaking through the media or expressing their feelings on FB. Proposals to the ministry of finance or the ministry of economy should be made in detail through forums, workshops, conferences, working papers and obtaining complete data in the field.

&gt; John Bara from Uma Akeh Baram – upgrades all roads, not just parts of it 

[TOP STORY]
In 2015 Murum Dam was completed. The Penan Murum were moved to 2 resettlement places namely Tegulang and Metalun. These two places have no schools and no health clinics. Penan children are asked to attend schools in dilapidated buildings abandoned by dam construction contractors.
Waiting with hope for 6 years. In 2021 Dermaga Makmur Sdn.Bhd was awarded a RM36.9 million contract to build SK Metalun Primary School (In the penan settlement area). But until yesterday it was reported that only 30.11 percent of the physical progress of the construction of this school. The contractor gave reasons - one of the reasons for the failure to complete this school project was. Shin Yang Logging Company charges a toll of RM100 to RM700 every time they pass through the logging company's road. (Only the Shin Yang log road) that connects the metalun Area with the outside world.
Our question at RFS is why this company is too powerful. Why did the government that made a lot of profit build a dam - not build a road to the penan settlement area. Why is the school not built together with the Murum penan relocation package. Why can't the people's representatives or the Minister solve the problem with this logging company.

&gt; Randau Istimewa oleh Stanley Rentap – Syarikat Pembalakan ialah Raja di Hutan Sarawak
&gt; Alexander Lihan dari Belaga – kontraktor sekolah perlu bayar “tol” kepada syarikat pembalakan

&gt; Special Randau by Stanley Rentap – The Logging Company is the King in the Sarawak Forest 
&gt; Alexander Lihan from Belaga – contractor of school need paid “toll” to logging company, make people angry 
&gt; Mr Munan Laja from Song Kapit – Urge the government to arrange JPN officials to enter the interior to make the process of mycard application more easier 
&gt; John Bara from Uma Akeh Baram – upgrades all roads, not just parts of it 

[TOP STORY]
In 2015 Murum Dam was completed. The Penan Murum were moved to 2 resettlement places namely Tegulang and Metalun. These two places have no schools and no health clinics. Penan children are asked to attend schools in dilapidated buildings abandoned by dam construction contractors.
Waiting with hope for 6 years. In 2021 Dermaga Makmur Sdn.Bhd was awarded a RM36.9 million contract to build SK Metalun Primary School (In the penan settlement area). But until yesterday it was reported that only 30.11 percent of the physical progress of the construction of this school. The contractor gave reasons - one of the reasons for the failure to complete this school project was. Shin Yang Logging Company charges a toll of RM100 to RM700 every time they pass through the logging company's road. (Only the Shin Yang log road) that connects the metalun Area with the outside world.
Our question at RFS is why this company is too powerful. Why did the government that made a lot of profit build a dam - not build a road to the penan settlement area. Why is the school not built together with the Murum penan relocation package. Why can't the people's representatives or the Minister solve the problem with this logging company. If there really is a problem - allow GPS/Premier of Sarawak to cancel the logging license for this company. This all shows the inefficiency of the government and the agencies involved. One time - Hulu Rajang Member of Parliament YB Billy Abit Joo was once detained by workers of the Shin Yang logging company and was not allowed to pass through the road of the logging company involved - while he was on his way to visit the Penan Murum settlement.

[TOP STORY]
Iswardy was once again invited by the RFS to explain about the 2 investigations carried out by the MACC now. That is the investigation of the Jana Wibawa Project which cost 5.7 billion and the Pandora Papers - the taking out of Malaysian national assets and money by some individuals abroad through offshore accounts.
The Jana Wibawa project is a government effort to help bumiputra contractors during covid to continue to be able to create job opportunities and profits. However, according to the chairman of the Malaysian Malay Contractors Association (Datuk Sri Mohd Fadzil Hassan) - the opportunity to get projects/contracts is only given to supporters of certain parties. Shocking during Muhyiddin Yassin's administration (less than 2 years). The PPBM party account (Mahyuddin Party) received donations and sponsorships of almost 300 million. For the record - although the approval of the Jana Wibawa project was approved by the cabinet, during the emergency, Muhyiddin Yassin had absolute power. MACC is investigating Muhyiddin as one of the suspects in the Jana Wibawa project embezzlement.
While the Pandora Papers - involved trillions of ringgit being taken out of the country through suspicious offshore accounts. Understood - under Anwar's administration. MACC has summoned an 84-year-old former finance minister (believed to be Tun Daim Zainuddin) to assist in the investigation. Anwar insisted in Parliament that he would not choose either the government or the opposition. If found guilty in the Pandora Papers investigation. Will be discussed. According to Iswardy. The Prime Minister's seriousness in combating corruption and corruption is evident in less than 3 months of his administration.
While during the administration of Muhyiddin Yassin and Ismail Sabri Yaakob- the investigation of the Pandora Papers was prevented and there was a scandal like the Jana Wibawa Project. Iswardy reminded Malaysians - especially those who will vote in the elections in the 6 states. Choose a government that is committed to fighting corruption, spending carefully and putting the interests of the people first.</itunes:summary>

RFS mendapat pesanan wsap daripada Patricia Helen memaklumkan bahawa beliau tidak dapat dihubungi kerana tiada liputan internet dan telephone di kampung Ba Abang. Beliau meminta kami menghubungi Cathrine Paul untuk memberi perkembangan.
Cathrine menjelaskan bahawa kaum penan Ba Abang tak akan membincangkan apa-apa syarat dengan pihak GT Interhill. Kerana satu sahaja matlamat kaum Penan Ba Abang iaitu, syarikat pembalakan harus keluar daripada tanah dan hutan mereka. Sehingga hari ini banyak sudah kerosakan hutan dan sungai di Ba Abang dan kalau diberi lagi lessen membalak kepada syarikat ini makan akan musnahlah hutan kaum penan. Cathrine menjelaskan bahawa kaum penan berhak menjalani cara hidup yang mereka mahukan yang tidak terlalu bergantung kepada wang. Sebaliknya mereka bergantung kepada hutan untuk mendapatkan sumber makanan.
Cathrine meminta supaya kaum penan di seluruh baram Bersatu hati melawan syarikat pembalakan yang menceroboh tanah mereka. Syarikat-syarikat ini masuk ke tanah mereka tanpa kebenaran . Dan syarikat-syarikat ini juga memecahkan kaum penan kepada beberapa kelompok supaya ada yang menyokong mereka. Cathrine juga meminta mana-mana pihak yang bersetuju dengan kaum penan supaya berblockade bersama mereka. Kerana jumlah kaum penan yang sedikit dan mereka tidak begitu mahir menagani taktik penipuan daripada syarikat pembalakan.

RFS received a WhatsApp message from Patricia Helen informing her that she could not be contacted because there was no internet and telephone coverage in Ba Abang village. He asked us to contact Cathrine Paul to give an update.
Cathrine explained that Ba Abang Penan people will not discuss any conditions with GT Interhill. Because there is only one goal of the Penan Ba Abang, that is, logging companies should get out of their land and forest. Until today, there has been a lot of damage to the forests and rivers in Ba Abang and if more logging licenses are given to this company, the forests of the Penan people will be destroyed. Cathrine explained that the Penan people have the right to live the way they want that is not too dependent on money. Instead they depend on the forest for food sources.
Cathrine asked that the Penan people throughout Baram unite to fight the logging companies that are encroaching on their land. These companies entered their land without permission. And these companies also split the Penan people into several groups so that some would support them. Cathrine also asked any party that agrees with the Penan people to blockade with them. Because the number of Penan people is small and they are not very good at dealing with fraudulent tactics from logging companies.

&gt; YB Chang Lih Kang, Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation – Lynas did not pay taxes to the government during the 11 years because of tax exemption 
&gt; Ann Teo, chairman of ROSE – let voters who out of constituency can apply as postal voters 
&gt; Chris Lau, activist journalist from Sibu – ex-PM ismail sabri spent RM 62 million to promote the slogan, but the people don't remember it 
&gt; Mr George Laeng from Uma Akeh Baram – where is the allocation for Baram? Adun and MP must use it for interior Baram to fix the road and bridge problems 

[BERITA UTAMA]
Keputusan kerajaan Malaysia tidak lagi membenarkan  Kilang Lynas di Gebeng-Kuantan/Pahang, menjalankan prosedur “memecah dan larut lesap atau mengimport lantanida pekat daripada Australia. Ini bermakna loji pemprosesan itu mungkin menghadapi penutupan separa atau tidak lagi menghasilkan sisa radioaktif di Malaysia.
Apakah kesan paling buruk yang mungkin berlaku?. Menurut Menteri- Lynas masih boleh merayu dalam masa 30 hari. Sama ada dilulus atau tidak. Kerajaan akan maklumkan. Tetapi sekiranya Lynas membuat keputusan menyaman kerajaan. Kementerian beliau telah bersedia dengan secukupnya. Apakah kerajaan Malaysia akan rugi besar jika kilang ini ditutup dan keputusan kerajaan terhadap Lynas akan menakut dan menjejaskan keyakinan pelabur.
Chang menjelaskan bahawa- kerajaan dan rakyat tidak mendapat untung yang banyak daripada Kilang Lynas. Lagi pula Lynas tak membayar cukai kepada kerajaan sepanjang 11 tahun telah beroperasi kerana diberi kelonggaran pengecualian cukai. Lagi pula pelabur akan lebih yakin dengan polisi Malaysia yang tetap/tidak berubah dan tidak bertoleransi dengan industri yang menghasilkan sisa yang beradioaktif. Menurut Chang -malaysia akan terus berusaha menarik pelaburan yang berkualiti disamping menjaga alam sekitar dan kesihatan rakyat Malaysia. Hasil operasi kilang Lynas – Malaysia kini terpaksa menyimpan secara PDF sebanyak 1.08 juta tan metrik sisa radioaktif selama-lamanya.

The decision of the Malaysian government no longer allows the Lynas Factory in Gebeng-Kuantan/Pahang, to carry out the procedure of "fracturing and leaching or importing concentrated lanthanides from Australia. This means that the processing plant may face partial closure or no longer produce radioactive waste in Malaysia.
What is the worst possible effect? According to the Minister, Lynas can still appeal within 30 days. Either approved or not. The government will inform. But if Lynas decides to sue the government. His ministry was adequately prepared. Will the Malaysian government lose a lot if this factory is closed and the government's decision against Lynas will scare and affect investor confidence.
Chang explained that- the government and the people did not get much profit from the Lynas Factory. After all, Lynas did not pay taxes to the government during the 11 years it has been in operation because it was given a tax exemption. After all, investors will be more confident with Malaysia's fixed/unchanged policy and zero tolerance for industries that produce radioactive waste. According to Chang -Malaysia will continue to try to attract quality investment in addition to protecting the environment and the health of Malaysians. As a result of the operation of the Lynas factory - Malaysia is now forced to store 1.08 million metric tons of radioactive waste in PDF form forever.</itunes:summary>

&gt; YB Chang Lih Kang, Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation – Lynas did not pay taxes to the government during the 11 years because of tax exemption 
&gt; Ann Teo, chairman of ROSE – let voters who out of constituency can apply as postal voters 
&gt; Chris Lau, activist journalist from Sibu – ex-PM ismail sabri spent RM 62 million to promote the slogan, but the people don't remember it 
&gt; Mr George Laeng from Uma Akeh Baram – where is the allocation for Baram? Adun and MP must use it for interior Baram to fix the road and bridge problems 

[BERITA UTAMA]
Keputusan kerajaan Malaysia tidak lagi membenarkan  Kilang Lynas di Gebeng-Kuantan/Pahang, menjalankan prosedur “memecah dan larut lesap atau mengimport lantanida pekat daripada Australia. Ini bermakna loji pemprosesan itu mungkin menghadapi penutupan separa atau tidak lagi menghasilkan sisa radioaktif di Malaysia.
Apakah kesan paling buruk yang mungkin berlaku?. Menurut Menteri- Lynas masih boleh merayu dalam masa 30 hari. Sama ada dilulus atau tidak. Kerajaan akan maklumkan. Tetapi sekiranya Lynas membuat keputusan menyaman kerajaan. Kementerian beliau telah bersedia dengan secukupnya. Apakah kerajaan Malaysia akan rugi besar jika kilang ini ditutup dan keputusan kerajaan terhadap Lynas akan menakut dan menjejaskan keyakinan pelabur.
Chang menjelaskan bahawa- kerajaan dan rakyat tidak mendapat untung yang banyak daripada Kilang Lynas. Lagi pula Lynas tak membayar cukai kepada kerajaan sepanjang 11 tahun telah beroperasi kerana diberi kelonggaran pengecualian cukai. Lagi pula pelabur akan lebih yakin dengan polisi Malaysia yang tetap/tidak berubah dan tidak bertoleransi dengan industri yang menghasilkan sisa yang beradioaktif. Menurut Chang -malaysia akan terus berusaha menarik pelaburan yang berkualiti disamping menjaga alam sekitar dan kesihatan rakyat Malaysia. Hasil operasi kilang Lynas – Malaysia kini terpaksa menyimpan secara PDF sebanyak 1.08 juta tan metrik sisa radioaktif selama-lamanya.

The decision of the Malaysian government no longer allows the Lynas Factory in Gebeng-Kuantan/Pahang, to carry out the procedure of "fracturing and leaching or importing concentrated lanthanides from Australia. This means that the processing plant may face partial closure or no longer produce radioactive waste in Malaysia.
What is the worst possible effect? According to the Minister, Lynas can still appeal within 30 days. Either approved or not. The government will inform. But if Lynas decides to sue the government. His ministry was adequately prepared. Will the Malaysian government lose a lot if this factory is closed and the government's decision against Lynas will scare and affect investor confidence.
Chang explained that- the government and the people did not get much profit from the Lynas Factory. After all, Lynas did not pay taxes to the government during the 11 years it has been in operation because it was given a tax exemption. After all, investors will be more confident with Malaysia's fixed/unchanged policy and zero tolerance for industries that produce radioactive waste.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Patricia memaklumkan bahawa Penan Ba Abang mendirikan blockade kali kedua bagi menghalang syarikat pembalakan GT Interhill menceroboh dan membalak secara haram dalam hutan Ba Abang. Blockade didirikan pada 13 feb 2023 tetapi pada 14 feb lebih kurang jam 3 petang polis dan General manager GT Interhil dan Arun Nyaling datang dan mengarahkan supaya blockade dibuka. Polis mengancam penduduk dengan mengatakan bahawa mereka akan ditangkap kerana menghalang sebuah syarikat  pembalakan yang ada permit pembalakan beroperasi secara sah. Juga menurut polis - adalah satu jenayah membuat blockade terhadap syarikat yang diberi kebenaran oleh kerajaan. Penan Ba Abang tetap menegaskan bahawa syarikat pembalakan yang tidak mendapat kebenaran membalak dalam Kawasan tanah mereka tetap satu kesalahan.
Polis memujuk Patricia supaya satu perbincangan dengan semua pihak terlibat dan jabatan-jabatan kerajaan diadakan pada 15 Mac 2023 di Long Lama. Penan Ba Abang tidak setuju sebarang perundingan diluar kampung mereka Ba Abang. Mereka mahu semua pihak terbabit datang mendengar suara penduduk  Ba Abang di Kampung Ba Abang. Bukannya di Long Lama. Blockade dirobohkan oleh Arun Nyaling dan beberapa penyokongnya. Puan Patricia Helen berkeras tidak mahukan sebarang perundingan- selain syarikat GT Interhill keluar daripada tanah mereka. Semasa blockade dirobohkan polis mengarahkan supaya tidak boleh merakam photo atau video. Penduduk akur kerana takut Tindakan akan diambil terhadap mereka. Amat sukar berhubung dengan Puan Patricia (dia di kampung Ba Abang). Panggilan telephone terputus sebanyak 12 kali dan proses rakaman memakan masa lebih sejam. Walaupun isi perbualan tak sampai 10 minit.

[TOP STORY]
Patricia informed that Penan Ba Abang set up a second blockade to prevent logging company GT Interhill from trespassing and logging illegally in the Ba Abang forest. The blockade was set up on 13 Feb 2023 but on 14 Feb at around 3pm the police and General Manager GT Interhil and Arun Nyaling came and ordered the blockade to be opened. Police threatened residents saying they would be arrested for obstructing a logging company that had a logging permit to operate legally. Also according to the police - it is a crime to blockade a company authorized by the government. Penan Ba Abang still insists that logging companies that do not get permission to log in their land are still an offence.
The police persuaded Patricia that a discussion with all parties involved and government departments be held on March 15, 2023 in Long Lama. Penan Ba Abang does not agree to any negotiations outside their village Ba Abang. They want all parties involved to come and listen to the voice of Ba Abang residents in Kampung Ba Abang. Not at Long Lama. The blockade was demolished by Arun Nyaling and some of his supporters. Mrs Patricia Helen insists she does not want any consultation - other than the GT Interhill company exiting their land. When the blockade was demolished, the police instructed not to take photos or videos. Residents agreed because they were afraid Action would be taken against them. It is very difficult to get in touch with Mrs. Patricia (she is in Ba Abang's village). The telephone call was interrupted 12 times and the recording process took more than an hour. Even if the content of the conversation is less than 10 minutes.</itunes:summary>

Syarikat pembalakan yang perlu bertanggungjawab ialah GT interhill, dan mereka seperti tidak mahu membaikinya sekarang, kerana kayu di kawasan berkaitan telah ditebang oleh mereka, tiada apa yang tinggal, jadi mereka tidak sanggup untuk bertanggungjawab, melainkan penduduk kampung membenarkan mereka masuk ke tapak lain untuk pembalakan.

Anyi Lah said, the GT interhill asked residents to remove the blockade as a condition of repairing the bridge. However, the villagers did not agree. 
The logging company that needs to be responsible is GT interhill, a subcontractor of interhill, and they don't seem to want to repair it now, because the timber in the relevant area has been felled by them, nothing left, so they are unwilling to be responsible, unless the villagers allow them to get into another site for logging.</itunes:summary>

Berkaitan isu pembatalan perlantikan Nurul Izzah sebagai penasihat kewangan dan ekonomi perdana Menteri, sebaliknya dilantik menganggotai sekreteriat penasihat ekonomi dan kewangan Perdana Menteri.

&gt; Gabriel Atong of Bintulu – Sarawakian not agree Hamid Sepawi as economy advisor, he involved in landgrabing of the native Sarawak
&gt; Madam Mag from Long Bemang – why after decades only ask for “deliverable pledge” for the govt projects?

[BERITA UTAMA]
Elia Bit adalah Penan dan berasal dari Baram. Beliau adalah pengasas PENA.
Elia yang telah lama melakukan kerja sukarela membantu orang Penan memohon sijil kelahiran dan Mykad. Kini tiba masanya untuk PKR melantik orang yang betul, bekerjasama dengan NGO seperti PENA dan membawa Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara ke pedalaman dan mendaftarkan orang yang tidak mempunyai Mykad atau sijil kelahiran. Sekarang bukan masanya untuk PKR dan DAP hanya bercakap, kata Elia.
Elia herslef menawarkan diri untuk mengetuai jawatankuasa ini, pergi ke kawasan pedalaman dan melakukan kerja dengan cepat. Menurut Elia, sebelum ini ketika dia melakukan kerja-kerja ini, ramai ketua kaum tidak mahu memberi kerjasama. Kerana kita pembangkang. Tetapi sekarang PH adalah kerajaan. NGO, JPN dan aktivis parti akan diterima baik di pedalaman atas tugas murni ini. Di samping itu, pasukan mudah alih mendapat sokongan kewangan daripada kerajaan. Dia pernah menggunakan wang sendiri, keluarga dan rakan-rakan juga membantu. Tetapi halangan terbesar ialah keengganan ketua kaum untuk bekerjasama.
Elia memuji tindakan PKR yang prihatin terhadap masalah ketiadaan sijil kelahiran dan ketiadaan kad pengenalan dalam kalangan rakyat Sarawak. Cuma pendekatan sekarang sepatutnya berbeza, kerana menurut Elia PKR kini adalah kerajaan dan Menteri - Kementerian Dalam Negeri juga dari parti PKR.


[TOP STORY]
Elia Bit is Penan and comes from Baram. He is the founder Of the PENA.
Elia, who has been doing volunteer work for a long time, helps the Penan people apply for birth certificates and Mykad. Now is the time for PKR to appoint the right people, cooperate with NGOs like PENA and bring the National Registration Department into the interior and register people who do not have a Mykad or birth certificate. Now is not the time for PKR and DAP to just talk, said Elia.
Elia herslef volunteered to lead this committee, go into the interior and do the work quickly. According to Elia, before when she was doing these works, many tribal leaders do not want to cooperate. Because we are the opposition. But now PH is the government. NGOs, JPN and party activists will be well received in the interior for this noble task. In addition, the mobile team has financial support from the government. She used to use her own money, family and friends also helped. But the biggest obstacle is the reluctance of the tribal leaders to cooperate.
Elia praised PKR's actions which are concerned about the problem of lack of birth certificates and lack of identity cards among the people of Sarawak. It's just that the current approach should be different, because according to Elia PKR is now the government and the Minister - Ministry of the Interior is also from the PKR party.</itunes:summary>

&gt; Elia Bit, founder of PENA (Penan Baram Empowerment Network) – Minister should appoint NGOs bring JPN into interior to help people registered mycard
&gt; Micheal Kong Feng Nian, DAPSY Kuching Chief - is not nessacery to have a new HQ of Municipal Council Building worth RM 60 Million 
&gt; Gabriel Atong of Bintulu – Sarawakian not agree Hamid Sepawi as economy advisor, he involved in landgrabing of the native Sarawak
&gt; Madam Mag from Long Bemang – why after decades only ask for “deliverable pledge” for the govt projects?

[BERITA UTAMA]
Elia Bit adalah Penan dan berasal dari Baram. Beliau adalah pengasas PENA.
Elia yang telah lama melakukan kerja sukarela membantu orang Penan memohon sijil kelahiran dan Mykad. Kini tiba masanya untuk PKR melantik orang yang betul, bekerjasama dengan NGO seperti PENA dan membawa Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara ke pedalaman dan mendaftarkan orang yang tidak mempunyai Mykad atau sijil kelahiran. Sekarang bukan masanya untuk PKR dan DAP hanya bercakap, kata Elia.
Elia herslef menawarkan diri untuk mengetuai jawatankuasa ini, pergi ke kawasan pedalaman dan melakukan kerja dengan cepat. Menurut Elia, sebelum ini ketika dia melakukan kerja-kerja ini, ramai ketua kaum tidak mahu memberi kerjasama. Kerana kita pembangkang. Tetapi sekarang PH adalah kerajaan. NGO, JPN dan aktivis parti akan diterima baik di pedalaman atas tugas murni ini. Di samping itu, pasukan mudah alih mendapat sokongan kewangan daripada kerajaan. Dia pernah menggunakan wang sendiri, keluarga dan rakan-rakan juga membantu. Tetapi halangan terbesar ialah keengganan ketua kaum untuk bekerjasama.
Elia memuji tindakan PKR yang prihatin terhadap masalah ketiadaan sijil kelahiran dan ketiadaan kad pengenalan dalam kalangan rakyat Sarawak. Cuma pendekatan sekarang sepatutnya berbeza, kerana menurut Elia PKR kini adalah kerajaan dan Menteri - Kementerian Dalam Negeri juga dari parti PKR.


[TOP STORY]
Elia Bit is Penan and comes from Baram. He is the founder Of the PENA.
Elia, who has been doing volunteer work for a long time, helps the Penan people apply for birth certificates and Mykad. Now is the time for PKR to appoint the right people, cooperate with NGOs like PENA and bring the National Registration Department into the interior and register people who do not have a Mykad or birth certificate. Now is not the time for PKR and DAP to just talk, said Elia.
Elia herslef volunteered to lead this committee, go into the interior and do the work quickly. According to Elia, before when she was doing these works, many tribal leaders do not want to cooperate. Because we are the opposition. But now PH is the government. NGOs, JPN and party activists will be well received in the interior for this noble task. In addition, the mobile team has financial support from the government. She used to use her own money, family and friends also helped. But the biggest obstacle is the reluctance of the tribal leaders to cooperate.
Elia praised PKR's actions which are concerned about the problem of lack of birth certificates and lack of identity cards among the people of Sarawak. It's just that the current approach should be different, because according to Elia PKR is now the government and the Minister - Ministry of the Interior is also from the PKR party.</description>

Iswardi Morni meramalkan pilihanraya di 6 negeri akan menyaksikan status quo akan kekal. PH dan UMNO akan mengekalkan penguasaan di negeri Selangor, Pulau Pinang dan Negeri Sembilan, manakala Parti PAS dan BERSATU akan terus menguasai Kedah, Kelantan dan Terengganu. Namun sedikit peluang untuk PH/UMNO (Kerajaan Perpaduan) memenangi Terengganu disebabkan tidak adanya pertembungan 3 penjuru seperti dalam PRU15 dan kecenderungan rakyat Terengganju menyokong UMNO di masa lalu. Sekarang - melalui mesyuarat pertama sekreteriat kerajaan perpaduan semalam (yang dipengerusikan oleh PMX). PMX mengumumkan bahawa semua parti dalam kerajaan perpaduan akan berkerjasama dalam pilihanraya di 6 negeri akan datang.
Faktor kedua, akaun parti PPBM telah dibekukan. Ini akan menyebabkan parti itu akan terbatas sedikit pergerakkannya. Ditanya adakah penyertaan Khairy Jamaluddin ke parti BERSATU akan membolehkan parti itu memenangi Selangor?. Mengakui Khairy agak berpengaruh, Iswardi bertanya adakah KJ akan diberi laluan mudah oleh Azmin Ali yang Ketika ini adalah ahli dewan undangan negeri Bukit Antarabangsa (DUN Selangor).

Iswardi Morni predicts that the elections in 6 states will see the status quo remain. PH and UMNO will maintain dominance in the states of Selangor, Penang and Negeri Sembilan, while PAS and Bersatu will continue to dominate Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu. However, there is little chance for PH/UMNO (Unity Government) to win Terengganu due to the absence of a 3-cornered clash like in GE15 and the tendency of the people of Terengganju to support UMNO in the past. Now - through the first meeting of the unity government secretariat yesterday (chaired by PMX). PMX announced that all parties in the unity government will cooperate in the elections in the next 6 states.
The second factor, the PPBM party account has been frozen. This will cause the party to be limited in its movement. Asked whether Khairy Jamaluddin's participation in the Bersatu party will enable the party to win Selangor?. Acknowledging that Khairy is quite influential, Iswardi asked if KJ would be given an easy path by Azmin Ali who is currently a member of the Bukit Antarabangsa state assembly (Selangor state assembly). Azmin Ali also aspires to return to become the Chief Minister of Selangor. Looking at the current situation - elections in 6 states will be held in June 2023.</itunes:summary>

[BERITA UTAMA]
Thomas menegaskan, mengikut perlembagaan, tugas utama SPR adalah untuk memudahkan semua urusan pengundian. Tetapi malangnya kerana kesukaran pengangkutan dan berada jauh di pedalaman, ramai penduduk tidak dapat menyertai proses pengundian (pilihan raya umum atau negeri). Lebih menyedihkan ialah peratusan keluar mengundi di Sarawak, yang biasanya 10 hingga 15 peratus lebih rendah daripada peratusan keluar mengundi persekutuan. Ini adalah keadaan yang sangat buruk bagi Sarawak. Sejak 3 tahun lalu, BERSIH 2.0 telah menghantar memorandum kepada SPR supaya pengundi diberi kemudahan mengundi awal sebagai pengundi pos di luar Kawasan atau mereka diberi kemudahan mengundi awal di beberapa pusat mengundi di pusat bandar seperti Miri, Sibu, Kuching dan Bintulu. Cara ini akan memudahkan pengundi menunaikan tanggungjawab dan meningkatkan peratusan mengundi. Tetapi menurut Thomas pegawai SPR yang sudah tua hanya mampu mengekalkan status quo dan tidak mampu melakukan perubahan. Thomas percaya bahawa melalui desakan bersungguh-sungguh semua rakyat Malaysia, perubahan akan dicipta.

Thomas stressed that according to the constitution, the primary duty of the EC is to facilitate all voting matters. But unfortunately due to the difficulty of transportation and being far inland, many residents are unable to participate in the voting process (general or state elections). Even more sad is the turnout in Sarawak, which is usually 10 to 15 percent lower than the federal turnout. This is a very bad situation for Sarawak. For the past 3 years, BERSIH 2.0 has sent a memorandum to the EC so that voters are given the facility to vote early as postal voters outside the Area or they are given the facility to vote early in several polling centers in the city center such as Miri, Sibu, Kuching and Bintulu. This way will make it easier for voters to fulfill their responsibilities and increase the voting percentage.

[TOP STOTY]
Last Thursday, Patricia Helen of Ba Abang informed RFS that the community is currently setup a blockade to prevent GT interhill from entering their customary land. RFS took this opportunity to ask the assemblyman whether he would assist/support the community.
YB Dennis Ngau said that he doesn’t know how to help those Penan people, they should complain through normal channels, and if they report the issue to the police, then police will investigate it. He said that the logging company has a license approved by the government to carry out the logging project. If there is any problem, it needs to be dealt with by the relevant unit.

He said that there was no village chief in that village, and the government appointed one for them.

RFS asked: whether GT interhill has made free prior and informed consent to the communities involved before obtaining the government's license to log into the forest? Is there a Due diligence?
RFS will continue to follow up and report on the case.


[BERITA UTAMA]
Khamis yang lalu, Patricia Helen dari Ba Abang memaklumkan RFS bahawa masyarakat Penan sedang membuat sekatan untuk menghalang GT interhill daripada memasuki tanah adat mereka. RFS mengambil kesempatan ini untuk bertanya kepada ADUN Telang Usan sama ada beliau akan membantu/menyokong mereka?
YB Dennis Ngau berkata bahawa dia tidak tahu bagaimana untuk membantu orang Penan itu, mereka harus mengadu melalui saluran biasa, dan jika mereka melaporkan isu itu kepada polis, maka polis akan menyiasatnya. Katanya, syarikat pembalakan itu mempunyai lesen yang diluluskan kerajaan untuk menjalankan projek pembalakan itu. Sekiranya terdapat sebarang masalah, ia perlu ditangani oleh unit berkenaan.
Ketika ditanya sama ada beliau akan bersolidariti dengan masyarakat, beliau berkata Tidak. Masalah itu mesti diselesaikan mengikut prosedur, iaitu menghubungi DO, dan kemudian melaporkan masalah itu kepada Biro Perhutanan dan unit lain yang berkaitan. Jika ada sesuatu yang salah, maka duduk dan bercakap.
Katanya, tiada ketua kampung di kampung itu, dan kerajaan melantik seorang untuk mereka.

RFS bersoal:
sama ada GT interhill melaksanakan FPIC kepada kommuniti Penan di Ba ABang sebelum mendapatkan lesen kerajaan untuk masuk ke dalam hutan membalak hutan? RFS akan terus membuat susulan dan melaporkan kes tersebut.</itunes:summary>

[TOP STOTY]
Last Thursday, Patricia Helen of Ba Abang informed RFS that the community is currently setup a blockade to prevent GT interhill from entering their customary land. RFS took this opportunity to ask the assemblyman whether he would assist/support the community.
YB Dennis Ngau said that he doesn’t know how to help those Penan people, they should complain through normal channels, and if they report the issue to the police, then police will investigate it. He said that the logging company has a license approved by the government to carry out the logging project. If there is any problem, it needs to be dealt with by the relevant unit.
When asked whether he would solidarity with the community, he said No. The problem must be solved according to the procedures, that is, contact the DO, and then report the problem to the Forestry Bureau and other relevant units. If there is something wrongdoing, then sit down and talk.
He said that there was no village chief in that village, and the government appointed one for them.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Kami bertanyakan kepada Roland bagaimana beliau dan PKR Sarawak boleh membantu Penan Ba Abang- isu pencerobohan hutan/pembalakan dan bagaimana menyelesaikan masalah perlantikan ketua Kampung Penan Ba Abang.
Roland menjelaskan bahawa masalah ini berpunca daripada kebenaran yang diberikan oleh seorang ketua kampung (Arun Nyaling) kepada syarikat pembalakan, untuk membalak dalam Kawasan Ba Abang. Roland telah mewakili majoriti Penan Ba Abang untuk memohon mahkamah membuat semakan kehakiman adakah perlantikan Arun Nyaling itu sah atau tidak. Jika mahkamah mendapati perlantikan beliau tidak sah. Maka secara automatik kebenaran yang beliau beri kepada syarikat pembalakan GT Interhill untuk membalak akan terbatal. Keputusan mahkamah akan diketahui pada akhir Februari atau Mac 2023. Majoriti Penan Ba Abang setuju Panai Erang sebagai Ketua Kampung Mereka.
Roland menjelaskan bahawa antara terma kerajaan Perpaduan adalah- sebarang kerja-kerja pembagunan yang melibatkan tanah dan hutan orang asal harus mendapat izin terlebih dahulu. Dalam kes ini hanya Arun Nyaling seorang sahaja yang setuju. Manakala majoriti yang lain membantah. Peluang wanita Penan Patricia Helen dan rakan-rakan menang dalam kes ini amat cerah.

[TOP STORY]
We asked Roland how he and Sarawak PKR can help Penan Ba Abang - the issue of forest encroachment/logging and how to solve the problem of appointing the head of Penan Ba Abang Village.
Roland explained that this problem stems from the permission given by a village chief (Arun Nyaling) to the logging company, to log in the Ba Abang Area. Roland has represented the majority of Penan Ba Abang to request the court to make a judicial review whether the appointment of Arun Nyaling is valid or not. If the court finds his appointment invalid. Then automatically the permission he gave to logging company GT Interhill to log will be cancelled. The court's decision will be known at the end of February or March 2023. The majority of Penan Ba Abang agree with Panai Erang as their Village Head.
Roland explained that one of the terms of the Unity government is that any development work involving the land and forest of the original people must obtain permission first. In this case, only Arun Nyaling agreed. While the majority of others objected. The chances of Penan woman Patricia Helen and friends winning in this case are very bright.</itunes:summary>

[BERITA UTAMA]
Hellen melaporkan bahawa kaum penan di Ba Abang telah mendirikan blockade pada 31 jan 2023 yang lalu, bagi menghalang syarikat pembalakan GT Interhill daripada terus membalak dalam Kawasan tanah kaum penan Ba Abang. Namun selang sehari kemudian General Manager (GM) GT Interhill datang membuka blockade yang didirikan. GM GT Interhill memberitahu kaum penan bahawa YB Dennis Ngau yang mengarahkan supaya blockade itu dirobohkan. Tidak puas hati. Patricia dan rakan-rakan membuat laporan Polis di Miri, Sarawak.
Bagaimana GT Interhill boleh memasuki tanah kaum Penan?. Ia bermula pada tahun 2020 apabila berlakunya krisis perlantikan Ketua Kampung. Orang Penan Ba Abang mahukan Panai Erang memimpin kaum Penan Ba Abang. Tetapi Arun Nyaling dilantik dengan disokong oleh YB Dennis Ngau. Setelah ada kuasa Arun Nyaling membenarkan syarikat GT Interhill membalak dalam Kawasan tanah komunal kaum penan.Kaum penan ditekan dengan pelbagai cara . Mereka meminta bantuan daripada Tetuan Roland Engan untuk membantu menyelesaikan masalah mereka ini. Mereka juga memohon orang ramai membantu mereka di tapak blockade. Bagi sesiapa yang ingin ke tapak blockade Ba Abang boleh menghubungi Patricia Helen di 011-25056068.
Hellen berharap supaya pencerobohan ke atas hutan dan tanah kaum penan dihentikan. Ketua kaum yang disokong majoriti penduduk kampung dilantik tanpa campur tangan politik dan berharap kemajuan/ kemudahan asas dapat sampai ke kampung mereka di Ba Abang.</itunes:summary>

Abdul Razak Memerhati tindakan kerajaan negeri Selangor, beliau tidak yakin kerajaan PH/PKR berupaya menjuarai isu alam sekitar. Hampir kesemua 56 Ahli dewan undangan negeri Selangor tidak bersuara bila berlakunya rompakan terhadap hutan simpan negeri Selangor. Oleh yang demikian - beliau tidak yakin PH yang memerintah dengan kuasa kerajaan perpaduan akan mampu melindungi alam sekitar Malaysia.
Sebabnya PM Anwar memerlukan sokongan politik daripada GPS di Sarawak dan begitu juga GRS di Sabah. Agak sukar Anwar menghalang kerajaan negeri ini daripada menghentikan terus kegiatan pembalakan. Namun PH dalam manifesto menyebut bahawa kerajaan negeri yang membendung pembalakan akan dibayar 1 billion ringgit setiap tahun. Abdul Razak berharap manifesto ini akan dilaksanakan.

Abdul Razak observing the actions of the Selangor state government, he is not convinced that the PH/PKR government is capable of championing environmental issues. Almost all 56 members of the Selangor state legislative assembly did not speak up when there was a robbery against the Selangor state forest reserve. Therefore - he is not convinced that PH ruling with the power of a unity government will be able to protect Malaysia's environment.
The reason is that PM Anwar needs political support from GPS in Sarawak and likewise GRS in Sabah. It is quite difficult for Anwar to stop the state government from directly stopping logging activities. However, PH in the manifesto mentions that the state government that curbs logging will be paid 1 billion ringgit every year.

【BERITA UTAMA】
Pushpan menegaskan walau apa juga kecekapan dan kemahiran dan kelayakan yang ada pada Nurul Izzah sehingga membolehkan beliau dilantik ke jawatan Penasihat Kanan kewangan dan ekonomi kepada perdana Menteri. Kesan buruk lantikan itu ialah memberi persepsi buruk kepada pentadbiran perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim. Pushpan berharap agar perdana Menteri mencari cara lain untuk Nurul Izzah dapat membantu dan menyumbangkan kepakaran beliau. Tidak semestinya memasukkan Nurul Izzah dalam pentadbiran beliau. Izzah boleh buat banyak kerja dan sumbang idea secara tidak rasmi. Selain itu Transparency International Malaysia menyatakan bahawa perlantikan Izzah ditafsirkan sebagai  amalan kronisme dan nepotisme dalam pentadbiran PM . Walau cuba ditepis dengan pelbagai hujah.

【TOP STORY】
Pushpan asserted that whatever competence and skills and qualifications Nurul Izzah has that allows her to be appointed to the position of Senior Financial and Economic Advisor to the Prime Minister. The bad effect of the appointment is to give a bad impression to the administration of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Pushpan hopes that the prime minister will find other ways for Nurul Izzah to help and contribute her expertise. It is not necessary to include Nurul Izzah in his administration. Izzah can do a lot of work and discuss ideas informally. In addition, Transparency International Malaysia stated that Izzah's appointment was interpreted as a practice of cronyism and nepotism in the PM's administration.

【BERITA UTAMA】
Pushpan menegaskan walau apa juga kecekapan dan kemahiran dan kelayakan yang ada pada Nurul Izzah sehingga membolehkan beliau dilantik ke jawatan Penasihat Kanan kewangan dan ekonomi kepada perdana Menteri. Kesan buruk lantikan itu ialah memberi persepsi buruk kepada pentadbiran perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim. Pushpan berharap agar perdana Menteri mencari cara lain untuk Nurul Izzah dapat membantu dan menyumbangkan kepakaran beliau. Tidak semestinya memasukkan Nurul Izzah dalam pentadbiran beliau. Izzah boleh buat banyak kerja dan sumbang idea secara tidak rasmi. Selain itu Transparency International Malaysia menyatakan bahawa perlantikan Izzah ditafsirkan sebagai  amalan kronisme dan nepotisme dalam pentadbiran PM . Walau cuba ditepis dengan pelbagai hujah.

【TOP STORY】
Pushpan asserted that whatever competence and skills and qualifications Nurul Izzah has that allows her to be appointed to the position of Senior Financial and Economic Advisor to the Prime Minister. The bad effect of the appointment is to give a bad impression to the administration of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Pushpan hopes that the prime minister will find other ways for Nurul Izzah to help and contribute her expertise. It is not necessary to include Nurul Izzah in his administration. Izzah can do a lot of work and discuss ideas informally. In addition, Transparency International Malaysia stated that Izzah's appointment was interpreted as a practice of cronyism and nepotism in the PM's administration. Despite trying to dismiss it with various arguments.</description>

Sarawak memerlukan semua rakyat dan parti untuk mencapai kejayaan, kenyataan GPS adalah salah
Sarawak tidak memerlukan ahli parlimen pembangkang untuk memperjuangkan haknya kerana GPS mampu mewakili negeri di Parlimen dengan sempurna, kata Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.
Roland menafikan kenyataan ini. Beliau berkata sama ada parti pembangkang atau parti pemerintah, rakyat Sarawak akan berusaha untuk Sarawak. MA63 berada di hujung jari ahli politik Sarawak. Katanya, PH telah memperjuangkan Sarawak untuk mendapatkan kembali hak dan kepentingan MA63 pada masa lalu. Salah satu usaha yang ketara ialah pada 16 September 2012, Pakatan Rakyat menandatangani Deklarasi Kuching, merupakan deklarasi yang diterima pakai oleh tiga parti komponen Pakatan Rakyat (PKR,DAP dan PAS)
Beliau berkata semasa membentuk kerajaan perpaduan, pihak-pihak bersetuju bahawa pengisytiharan PH dimasukkan dalam persetujuan kerajaan perpaduan, yang bermakna GPS juga bersetuju dengan konsep wilayah Sarawak. Ini usaha semua parti politik, bukan GPS sahaja.

Sarawak needs all people and parties to achieve success, the GPS statement is wrong
Sarawak does not need opposition MPs to fight for its rights because GPS is perfectly capable of representing the state in Parliament, says Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.
Roland denies this statement. He said that whether it is the opposition party or the ruling party, the people of Sarawak will put effort for Sarawak. MA63 is on the finger tip of Sarawak politicians. He said that PH has been fighting for Sarawak to get back the rights and interests of MA63 in the past. One of the significant effort is on September 16, 2012, Pakatan Rakyat signed the Kuching Declaration, is a declaration adopted by the three component parties of the Pakatan Rakyat (PKR,DAP and PAS)
He said while form the unity government, the parties agrees that PH's declaration is included in the agreement of the unity government, which means that GPS agrees with the concept of wilayah Sarawak too. This is the effort of all political parties, not just GPS.</itunes:summary>

melantik Nurul Izzah sebagai Penasihat Kanan Kewangan dan ekonomi tidak ada salahnya apabila beliau seorang yang cekap untuk jawatan tersebut
PMX Anwar Ibrahim melantik anaknya Nurul Izzah sebagai penasihat Kanan Kewangan dan ekonomi. Ini mengundang kontroversi, dikaitkan dengan kronisme dan konflik kepentingan. Namun Iswardi berpendapat Nurul Izzah adalah seorang ahli parlimen tiga penggal (sebelum kalah PRU15) yang berpengalaman dan berkelayakan. Terlalu awal untuk mengaitkan perlantikan beliau dengan kronisme. Beri beliau sedikit ruang dan peluang untuk membuktikan keupayaanya. Adalah tidak adil juga mengenepikan mana-mana individu yang berbakat semata-mata kerana dia ada hubungan keluarga atau sama parti dengan perdana Menteri.
Kepada kritikan pedas Ahli parlimen Pasir Gudang/PKR- Lantikan Izzah “legally right but morally wrong”. Iswardi menegaskan tiada salahnya melantik orang yang kompiten ke sesuatu jawatan jika sekiranya dia mampu bekerja dengan baik- walaupun dia ahli keluarga kita. Beri sedikit masa dan jika tak perform boleh digantikan dengan yang lain.
Berkaitan dengan konflik dalaman UMNO yang semakin memuncak. Dengan pemecatan dan penggantungan beberapa tokoh politik UMNO termasuk Hisyamuddin, KJ dan Noh Omar. Zahid hamidi dapat mengukuhkan kedudukannya tetapi UMNO akan semakin kurang sokongan daripada penyokong akar umbi. Untuk mengelak konflik dalaman kerajaan perpaduan. Iswardi berpendapat adalah lebih baik PH tidak menerima mana-mana pemimpin UMNO yang dipecat masuk kedalam PH.

GPS masih belum bertemu dengan PH Sarawak untuk perbincangan
Walaupun GPS merupakan salah satu kerajaan perpaduan, namun dalam kerajaan negeri, tiada sebarang dialog atau kerjasama dengan PH Sarawak setakat ini.
Memandangkan pelbagai parti politik negeri di Malaysia Barat khususnya parti politik dalam kerajaan perpaduan sudah mula berbincang tentang cara mengatur pilihan raya negeri yang akan datang, namun GPS yang juga kerajaan perpaduan tidak mengadakan sebarang perbincangan dengan PH. Sarawak. Walaupun pilihanraya Sarawak tinggal beberapa tahun lagi, persiapan masih diperlukan.
Sejak penubuhan Kerajaan Perpaduan, tidak kira projek pembangunan yang telah dijalankan, sedang berjalan atau akan dijalankan tidak lama lagi, ia tidak pernah dijalankan oleh GPS dahulu. Mungkin GPS telah melupakan atau mengabaikan mereka, tetapi kita mesti terus memantau mereka.
Awal tahun ini, PMX DSAI berkata Sabah, Sarawak mempunyai kuasa untuk meluluskan projek bernilai RM50 juta ke bawah. Ini bermakna kerajaan Malaysia Timur boleh menjalankan projek berjumlah 50 juta ke bawah tanpa kelulusan kerajaan persekutuan yang amat ketara dan GPS tidak mempunyai sebab untuk mengabaikan pembangunan itu.

GPS has yet to meet with PH Sarawak for talks
Although GPS is one of the unity governments, but within the state government, there has been no dialogue or cooperation with PH Sarawak so far.
Seeing that the various state political parties in West Malaysia, especially the political parties in the unity government, have begun to discuss how to arrange on the upcoming state elections, but GPS, which is also the unity government, has not conducted any discussions with PH Sarawak. Although the Sarawak elections are years away, preparations are still needed.
Since the formation of Unity Government, no matter the development projects that have been carried out, are in progress or will be carried out soon, they have never been carried out by GPS in the past. Maybe GPS has forgotten or ignored them, but we must continue to monitor them.
Earlier this year, PMX DSAI said Sabah, Sarawak have power to approve projects worth RM50 million or below. This means that the East Malaysia government can carry out projects of 50 million or less without the approval of the federal government, which is very significant, and GPS has no reason to ignore the development.</itunes:summary>

Seeing that the various state political parties in West Malaysia, especially the political parties in the unity government, have begun to discuss how to arrange on the upcoming state elections, but GPS, which is also the unity government, has not conducted any discussions with PH Sarawak. Although the Sarawak elections are years away, preparations are still needed.
Since the formation of Unity Government, no matter the development projects that have been carried out, are in progress or will be carried out soon, they have never been carried out by GPS in the past. Maybe GPS has forgotten or ignored them, but we must continue to monitor them.
Earlier this year, PMX DSAI said Sabah, Sarawak have power to approve projects worth RM50 million or below. This means that the East Malaysia government can carry out projects of 50 million or less without the approval of the federal government, which is very significant, and GPS has no reason to ignore the development.</description>

is time for government to have a political view to deal with issues arising from foreign labor
In the long run, the government needs to have a comprehensive policy for the foreign workers. We are still facing the problem of human (labor) trafficking or exploitation of labor. However, the current undocumented migration recalibration program cannot solve these hidden problems.
When we talk to undocumented workers, 90 percent are victims of human trafficking. When asked how does they enter the country without document, and they answer that it is the agent's arrangement. When it is illegal way, we know is about the problem of corruption. But in the eyes of Malaysian, what they see is that foreign workers come in to grab jobs or bring negative problems such as diseases, but in fact they are also victims.
In the past, Malaysia did not have a political view to deal with issues arising from foreign labor. He hoped that the government would formulate laws specifically to deal with the issue of foreign workers. Instead of witnessing the unemployment of Malaysian youth and compete for job opportunities with foreign workers. Only when all Malaysians have a job then only open up the opportunities to foreigners.</itunes:summary>

PKR Sarawak berdialog dengan Menteri Kesihatan, semua masalah kesihatan telah diambil perhatian oleh Menteri
Dahulu banyak masalah kesihatann di Sarawak, tetapi tidak ada cara untuk meminta bantuan, tidak ada pegawai yang menjawab, dan tidak ada menteri yang memberi perhatian. Di bawah pembentukan kerajaan perpaduan, Dr Zaleha, Menteri Kesihatan daripada PKR, mengetuai pertemuan dengan PKR Sarawak dan NGO sebelum bertemu dengan pegawai kerajaan Sarawak untuk mendengar dan membincangkan isu-isu kesihatan di Sarawak.
Roland berkata, wakil dari setiap cabang PKR menghadiri mesyuarat dialog ini untuk membangkitkan masalah yang dihadapi, dan Dr Zaleha turut merakam dan memberi maklum balas dengan teliti. Termasuk, klinik-klinik di kawasan pedalaman itu "sakit" (daif).
MPN PKR Sarawak akan mengumpul semua masalah dan menyerahkan kepada menteri untuk langkah seterusnya.

PKR Sarawak has dialogue with Minister of Health, all healthcare problems are being noted by Minister
In the past, there were many problems with medical facilities and equipment in Sarawak, but there was no way to ask for help, no officials responded, and no ministers paid attention. Under the formation of the unity government, Dr Zaleha, the Minister of Health from PKR, took the lead in meeting with PKR Sarawak and NGOs before meeting with Sarawak government officials to listen to and discuss the medical issues in Sarawak.
Roland said that representatives from each division of PKR attended this dialogue meeting to raise the problems faced by the district, and Dr Zaleha also carefully recorded and gave feedback. Including, the clinics in the outback are "sick" (dilapidated) and some are only half restored.

Iswardy morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak - Jika UMNO stabil, kerajaan perpaduan akan stabil
Perspektif UMNO tidak boleh berbelah bahagi pada masa ini kerana terpaksa menghadapi pilihanraya negeri dan keadaan kerajaan yang lemah. Jadi pemilihan parti pada bulan Mei akan menjadi kunci.
Tindakan London baru-baru ini atau insiden lain yang kelihatan menjejaskan kerajaan semuanya tidak bermakna. Tapi kalau betul-betul terkena, sepatutnya kes Zahid. Perbicaraan pembelaan Timbalan Perdana Menteri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi kerana pecah amanah jenayah, rasuah dan pengubahan wang haram melibatkan dana Yayasan Akalbudi telah dijadualkan semula untuk disambung semula pada 10 April.
Terdapat dua situasi, pertama, campur tangan Anwar, menimbulkan kemarahan orang ramai, dan kedua, menukar timbalan perdana menteri, yang akan menyebabkan ketidakstabilan politik dalam negara dan seterusnya ketidakstabilan ekonomi.
Senario kes terbaik ialah Anwar mengetepikan dan membiarkan kes itu berjalan dengan lancar.

Iswardy morni, activist lawyer from Sarawak - If UMNO is stable, the unity government will be stable
The UMNO's perspective cannot be divided at present because it has to face state elections and the weak situation in the government. So the party election in May will be key. 
The recent London move or other incidents that seem to affect the government are all meaningless. But if it is really affected, it should be Zahid's case. Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s defence trial for criminal breach of trust, corruption and money laundering involving Yayasan Akalbudi funds has been rescheduled to resume on April 10.
There are two situations, first, Anwar's interference, causing public resentment, and second, changing the deputy prime minister, which will cause political instability in the country and consequently economic instability.
The best-case scenario is for Anwar to stand aside and let the case run its course.</itunes:summary>

【BERITA UTAMA】Gabriel Atong Penduduk Punan Ba.
Gabriel memaklumkan RFS bahawa lebih sebulan Rumah Panjang Beliau Punan Ba berdepan gangguan bekalan tenaga elektrik ekoran projek Solar Hybrid dibawah Kementerian Pembagunan Luar Bandar rosak teruk dipanah petir. Selama lebih sebulan itu bukan sahaja penduduk rumah panjang Punan Ba berdepan kesukaran, malah sebuah klinik kesihatan (Klinik Kesihatan Punan Ba) dan juga Sekolah SK Punan Ba juga berdepan masalah kerana bergantung dengan punca tenaga elektrik yang sama.
Dibawah skim elektrik Alternatif Luar Bandar Sarawak (SARES) kerajaan Sarawak memperuntukkan RM2.37 billion  untuk tahun 2019 hingga 2020 manakala untuk Program Air Alternatif Darawak kerajaan negeri memperuntukkan RM8.28 billion. Kedua-dua projek mensasarkan bekalan air terawat dan elektrik 100% kepada penduduk Sarawak menjelang 2025.
Timbul persoalan kenapa kerajaan sarawak tidak menyalurkan bekalan elektrik yang murah dan stabil kepada penduduk yang hanya tinggal dengan jarak hanya 40 km daripada empangan Bakun. kenapa membelanjakan  berbillion ringgit tapi masalah bekalan elektrik kepada penduduk luar bandar masih tidak stabil dan seringkali berdepan masalah. Untuk projek SARES dan SAWAS sahaja peruntukannya lebih RM10 billion. Adakah ia benar-benar mencapai sasaran dan menyelesaikan masalah rakyat? 
Gabriel meminta supaya PMX Anwar Ibrahim supaya jangan terlalu percayakan angka-angka dan statistik yang dilaporkan. Sebaliknya datang sendiri untuk melihat masalah rakyat.

[TOP STORY] Gabriel Atong Resident of Punan Ba.
Gabriel informed the RFS that for more than a month Rumah Panjang Hisa Punan Ba was facing a power outage due to the Solar Hybrid project under the Ministry of Rural Development being badly damaged by lightning. For more than a month, not only the residents of the Punan Ba longhouse faced difficulties, but a health clinic and also the Punan Ba SK School also faced problems because they depended on the same source of electricity.
The question arises as to why the Sarawak government does not supply cheap and stable electricity to residents who only live 40 km from the Bakun dam. why spend billions of ringgit but the problem of electricity supply to rural residents is still unstable and often faces problems. For SARES and SAWAS projects alone, the allocation is more than RM10 billion. Does it really achieve the target and solve the people's problems?

Gereng Jadum penduduk Penan dari Tegulang-Murum.
Pada tahun 2015 SEB berjaya menyiapkan empangan hidro elektrik Murum dengan kos RM4.1 juta. bagi menyokong bekalan tenaga elektrik untuk industri berat di SCORE- Sarawak. Namun tidak harus dilupakan bahawa terdapat 7 buah rumah panjang kaum penan dan kenyah yang terpaksa dipindahkan ke kawasan penempatan tegulang dan metalun bagi memberi laluan kepada pembinaan empangan hidro murum.
Namun setelah 8 tahun berlalu penduduk penan di kedua-dua kawasan penempatan ini hidup dalam kesusahan bila tidak diberi kemudahan yang mencukupi. Di Kawasan penempatan baru ini masih tiada sekolah, tiada klinik dan penduduk masih berdepan kesukaran mendapatkan air bersih. Mereka tidak diberi tanah pertanian dan kini mereka mencari pekerjaan dengan syarikat perladangan kelapa sawit berdekatan. Mereka meminta perdana menteri Anwar Ibrahim datang segera membantu mereka. 
Penduduk penan disini juga mengadu bahawa jalan raya ke perkampungan mereka dan ke sekolah SK Metalun (sekolah sementara yang menumpang di bangunan yang didermakan oleh kontraktor pembinaan empangan) belum dibina. Tambah mendukacitakan mereka guru-guru disini tidak begitu serius mendidik anak kaum Penan . Mereka merayu kepada perdana menteri, menteri kesihatan dan menteri pendidikan untuk datang dan menyelesaikan masalah mereka.

Gereng Jadum, a Penan resident from Tegulang-Murum.
In 2015, SEB successfully completed the Murum hydro-electric dam at a cost of RM4.1 million. to support the supply of electricity for heavy industry in SCORE- Sarawak. But it should not be forgotten that there are 7 Penan and Kenyah longhouses that had to be moved to the tegulang and metalun settlement areas to make way for the construction of the Murum hydro dam.
However, after 8 years have passed, Penan residents in these two settlement areas are living in hardship if they are not given adequate facilities. In this new settlement area there is still no school, no clinic and residents are still facing difficulties in getting clean water. They were not given agricultural land and now they are looking for work with a nearby oil palm plantation company. They asked the prime minister Anwar Ibrahim to come and help them immediately.
Penan residents here also complain that the road to their village and to the SK Metalun school (a temporary school housed in a building donated by the dam construction contractor) has not been built. Adding to their sadness, the teachers here are not very serious about educating the children of the Penan people. They appealed to the prime minister, health minister and education minister to come and solve their problems.</itunes:summary>

&gt; Mrs. Catherine from Marudi – No IC victim blame state gov act too slow 
&gt; Tian Chua, former vice president of PKR – Hope the party leader will accept His appeal 

[TOPIK UTAMA] Rombakan Kabinet negeri Sabah tetapi tidak stabil
Sabah setakat ini telah ada 16 ketua menteri dan sekarang berlaku lagi krisis politik di Sabah. Sebabnya kerana ahli-ahli politik yang tamakkan kuasa, wang dan jawatan. Kali ini masalah dicetuskan oleh parti warisan dan UMNO/BN Sabah. Setakat ini Ketua Menteri Sabah Hajiji kekal berkuasa dengan sokongan 44 daripda 79 ahli dewan undangan negeri. Sabah tidak harus mengadakan pilihanrya terlalu kerap kerana ia akan menimbulkan ketidakcekapan pentadbiran kerajaan serta pembaziran kewangan. Sabah perlukan ahli politik yang matang, bertanggungjawab dan jujur. Sepatutnya seluruh kepimpinan di Sabah menumpukan perhatian terhadap gesaan perdana menteri untuk perlaksanaan segera MA63. Keadaan politik di Sabah masih belum menentu walaupun Hajiji melakukan rombakan kabinet hari ini. Namun ia tidak menggambarkan kerajaan perpaduan seperti dicadangkan perdana menteri. Wakil  Parti Warisan  tiada dalam kabinet Sabah dan Bung Mokthar digugurkan daripada jawatan dalam kabinet negeri. Untuk rekod Sabah adalah antara negeri yang belum menguatkuasakan undang-undang anti lompat parti

[TOP STORY] Sabah state Cabinet reshuffle but unstable
Sabah has so far had 16 chief ministers and now there is another political crisis in Sabah. The reason is because of politicians who are greedy for power, money and position. This time the problem was caused by the heritage party and UMNO/BN Sabah. So far Sabah Chief Minister Hajiji remains in power with the support of 44 out of 79 members of the state legislative assembly. Sabah should not hold elections too often because it will cause inefficiency of government administration and waste of money. Sabah needs mature, responsible and honest politicians. The entire leadership in Sabah should focus on the prime minister's call for the immediate implementation of MA63. The political situation in Sabah is still uncertain even though Hajiji reshuffled the cabinet today. But it does not depict a unity government as proposed by the prime minister. Parti Warisan's representative is not in the Sabah cabinet and Bung Mokthar was dropped from his position in the state cabinet. For the record, Sabah is one of the states that has not enforced the anti-party jumping law</itunes:summary>

[TOPIK UTAMA]
PM DSAI mencadangkan kerajaan perpaduan di Sabah. Tetapi Hajiji dan team agak keberatan kerana tidak setuju dengan cara politik Bung Mokthar. Kesan ketara jika berlaku pergolakan di Sabah adalah- sekiranya kedudukan Bung Mokthar tergugat maka kedudukan Zahid Hamidi juga tergugat. Sekiranya Zahid tergugat maka sokongan terhadap PMX juga tergugat. Jika kemelut gagal diatasi. Maka pilihanraya negeri terpaksa diadakan. Jika PH kalah dalam pilihanraya negeri. Maka dibumbangkan akan memberi kesan domino kepada pilihanraya di 6 negeri di Semenanjung Malaysia.

[TOP STORY]
PM DSAI proposed a unity government in Sabah. But Hajiji and the team are a bit reluctant because they don't agree with Bung Mokthar's politics. The significant impact if there is unrest in Sabah is - if Bung Mokthar's position is compromised then Zahid Hamidi's position is also compromised, then it happened to PM DSAI too. If the crisis fails to be overcome, the state elections had to be held. If PH loses in the state election. So being overthrown will have a domino effect on the elections in 6 states in Peninsular Malaysia.</itunes:summary>

[BERITA UTAMA]
Iswardi Morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak – Muhyiddin mendapat terlalu banyak wang melalui pemberian kontrak terus
Menurut Iswardi Krisis politik Sabah- yang  tercetus secara berterusan (ketua menteri sering berganti) ekoran terlalu ramai figura politik yang mementingkan kedudukan, wang dan projek melebihi kepentingan rakyat. Masing-masing ada wang dan menggunakan wang untuk membeli sokongan. 
Berkaitan perkembangan siasatan SPRM terhadap Adam Radlan (sepupu menantu Muhyiddin). Adam Radlan bolehlah dikatakan sebagai broker politik Muhyiddin. Bedasarkan keterangan setakat ini Adam dikatakan mendapat wang daripada projek-projek yang diluluskan oleh Muhyaddin Yasin dan wang itu disalurkan kepada Parti Pribumu Bersatu (PPBM). Oleh kerana telah terlalu banyak wang yang telah diambil melalui cara pemberian kontrak secara terus maka sebab itulah Mahyuddin Yassin bersungguh-sungguh ingin menjadi perdana menteri semula supaya dapat tutup segala penyelewengan ini. Inilah juga sebab kenapa PPBM tak mahu bekerjasama dengan  PH. Kerana jika berkerjasama - PH akan memegang jawatan Perdana Menteri. Dan perdana menteri ada semua ekses kepada segala dokumen di semua kementerian. Pasti kes-kes penyelewengan ini akan terbongkar juga.

[TOP STORY]
Iswardi Morni, activist lawyer from Sarawak – Muhyiddin has got too much money through direct awarding of contracts
According to Iswardi Sabah's political crisis - which erupts continuously (the prime minister often changes) due to too many political figures who care about positions, money and projects above the interests of the people. Each has money and uses money to buy support. 
Regarding the development of the MACC investigation against Adam Radlan (cousin of Muhyiddin's son-in-law). Adam Radlan can be said to be Muhyiddin's political broker. Based on the evidence so far, Adam is said to have received money from projects approved by Muhyaddin Yasin and the money was channeled to Parti Pribumu Bersatu (PPBM). Because too much money has been taken through direct awarding of contracts, that is why Mahyuddin Yassin really wants to become prime minister again so that he can close all these irregularities. This is also the reason why PPBM does not want to cooperate with PH. Because if we cooperate - PH will hold the position of Prime Minister. And the prime minister has all access to all documents in all ministries. Surely these cases of malpractice will be revealed as well.</itunes:summary>

【BERITA UTAMA】
Celine Lim, pengurus Save Rivers
cadangkan Niz Nazmi diberi peluang kepada Orang Asal dan Orang Asli untuk mengetuai perbincangan berkaitan perlindungan hutan dan alam sekitar
Celine memberi cadangan dan saranan kepada Menteri Sumber Asli, alam sekitar dan perubahan iklim- YB Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad. Supaya orang asal diberi peluang untuk memimpin perbincangan berkaitan penjagaan hutan dan alam sekitar. Orang Asal menurut Celine mempunyai kepakaran tradisi yang boleh digunakan untuk menjaga kelestarian alam sekitar. Satu sebab lain ialah Orang Asal mempunyai rekod yang cemerlang menjaga hutan dan alam semulajadi dan Orang Asal memiliki dan mendiami kawasan tanah yang luas.
Cabarannya sekarang adalah kerajaan negeri berkuasa penuh terhadap tanah. Tetapi menurut Celine kerajaan persekutuan mempunyai pengaruh besar mengendali isu alam sekitar. Save Rivers berharap kedua-dua kerajaan negeri dan pusat dapat bekerjasama.
Berkaitan jangkaan Sarawak bakal memperoleh hasil 11 billion daripada eksport tenaga baharu Hidrogen dan carbone storage. Celine berpendapat kerajaan harus melibatkan semua pemegang taruh dalam memahami isu ini. Semua pihak berkepentingan harus dibawa ke meja perbincangan supaya semua akan memperoleh manfaat. Jika tidak ia bakal menimbulkan banyak konflik.

suggest Niz Nazmi given opportunity to indegenios to lead discussions related to forest and environmental protection
Celine gave suggestions and recommendations to the Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change - YB Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad. So that indigenous people are given the opportunity to lead discussions related to forest and environmental protection. According to Celine, Indigenous people have traditional expertise that can be used to maintain environmental sustainability. Another reason is that the Aboriginal people have an excellent record of protecting forests and nature and that the Aboriginal people own and inhabit large areas of land.
The challenge now is that the state government has full power over land. But according to Celine the federal government has a big influence on environmental issues. Save Rivers hopes that both the state and central governments can work together.
Related to the expectation that Sarawak will earn 11 billion from the export of new energy, Hydrogen and carbon storage. Celine thinks the government should involve all stakeholders in understanding this issue. All stakeholders should be brought to the discussion table so that all will benefit. Otherwise it will cause a lot of conflict.</itunes:summary>

【BERITA UTAMA】
Oscar Ling, Naib Presiden DAP Sarawak dan Ahli Parlimen Sibu – Kami mahu pilihan raya tempatan di setiap peringkat, penting untuk demokrasi
Kebanyakan kawasan pilihan raya yang dimenangi GPS adalah luar bandar. Apabila melantik pemimpin tempatan, mereka mesti berada di luar kawalan kerajaan, kerana ini tidak demokratik. Pada masa ini, hanya terdapat pilihan raya persekutuan dan pilihan raya negeri di Malaysia, tetapi pilihan raya tempatan mesti diadakan. Terpulang kepada rakyat untuk memilih siapa ketua kampung, kaunselor dan pegawai tempatan yang lain. Itu antara perkara yang kita perjuangkan sekarang. Hanya ada dua dalam satu di Malaysia. Tetapi di Taiwan terdapat sembilan dalam satu, dan terdapat pilihan raya di setiap peringkat. Dari negara ke negeri, dari negeri ke daerah, dari bandar ke kampung, perlu ada prosedur demokrasi dan rakyat perlu memilih mereka.
Banyak negeri bertukar parti politik, tetapi Sarawak tidak pernah berubah. GPS-BN masih berkuasa sejak merdeka. Akibatnya, banyak pembangunan dan dasar yang tidak dilaksanakan mengikut kehendak rakyat, namun beliau percaya akan ada perubahan pada masa hadapan. Rakyat akan belajar dari negeri lain seperti kerajaan Selangor memberi insurans percuma kepada rakyat Selangor. Beliau percaya bahawa rakyat Sarawak akan melihat pembangunan negeri lain dan membuat perubahan dalam pilihan raya Sarawak.

Oscar Ling, Vice President of DAP Sarawak cum MP for Sibu – We want local election in every level, vital for democracy
Most of the constituencies that GPS won were rural. When appointing local leaders, they must be out of the control of the government, because this is not democratic. At present, there are only federal elections and state elections in Malaysia, but local elections must be held. It is up to the people to choose who is the village chief, counselor and other local officials. That's one of the things we're fighting for right now. There are only two in one in Malaysia. But in Taiwan there are nine in one, and there are elections at every level. From the country to the state, from the state to the district, from the town to the village, there should be democratic procedures and the people should elect them.
Many states have changed political parties, but Sarawak has never changed. GPS-BN is still in power since independence. As a result, many developments and policies have not been implemented according to the people, but he believes that there will be changes in the future. The people will learn from other states, such as the Selangor government giving free insurance to the people of Selangor. He believes that the people of Sarawak will see the development of other states and make changes in Sarawak’s elections.</itunes:summary>

【BERITA UTAMA】
Iswardi Morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak – SPEAKER SEPATUTNNYA BERLAKU ADIL MENGENDALIKAN MESYUARAT
Siapakah speaker Parlimen yang baharu. Menurut iswardi peraturan mesyuarat Dewan Rakyat menetapkan bahawa calon speaker akan diundi sekiranya ada 2 pencalonan atau lebih. Berdasarkan persefahaman parti-parti yang menyokong Anwar ketika ini. Besar kemungkinan calon speaker daripada PH akan mendapat undi tertinggi dan dilantik sebagai speaker Dewan yang baharu.
Timbul persoalan … adakah speaker akan memihak kepada pihak yang melantik beliau. Menurut Iswardi sepatutnya Speaker tidak memihak dan mengendalikan mesyuarat berdasarkan peraturan tetap dewan rakyat. Kebisingan dan ketidakcekapan yang berlaku dalam persidangan dewan rakyat ketika ini ekoran ahli parlimen yang tidak cekap dalam membahaskan isu-isu yang sepatutnya dibahaskan dan adanya ahli parlimen yang menyuarakan isu-isu yang sebenarnya langsung tiada dalam agenda mesyuarat.
Iswardi berharap speaker bersikap tegas kepada ahli parlimen yang melakukan provokasi berlebihan dalam parlimen dan memberi ruang dan masa seluasnya kepada semua ahli parlimen membahaskan isu-isu berkaitan permasalahan negara dan rakyat.

【TOP STORY】
Iswardi Morni, activist lawyer from Sarawak – THE SPEAKER SHOULD BE FAIR IN HANDLING THE MEETING
Who is the new Parliament speaker? According to Iswardi, the rules of the Dewan Rakyat meeting state that the speaker candidate will be voted on if there are 2 or more nominations. Based on the understanding of the parties currently supporting Anwar. It is very likely that the speaker candidate from PH will get the highest number of votes and be appointed as the new speaker of the House.
The question arises ... will the speaker be in favor of the party that appointed him. According to Iswardi, the Speaker should be impartial and conduct meetings based on the regular rules of the people's council. The noise and inefficiency that is happening in the current parliament session is due to parliamentarians who are incompetent in debating issues that should be debated and there are parliamentarians who voice issues that are actually not on the agenda of the meeting.
Iswardi hopes the speaker will be strict with parliamentarians who engage in excessive provocation in parliament and give ample space and time to all parliamentarians to debate issues related to the problems of the country and the people.</itunes:summary>

【BERITA UTAMA】
Iswardi Morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak – SPEAKER SEPATUTNNYA BERLAKU ADIL MENGENDALIKAN MESYUARAT
Siapakah speaker Parlimen yang baharu. Menurut iswardi peraturan mesyuarat Dewan Rakyat menetapkan bahawa calon speaker akan diundi sekiranya ada 2 pencalonan atau lebih. Berdasarkan persefahaman parti-parti yang menyokong Anwar ketika ini. Besar kemungkinan calon speaker daripada PH akan mendapat undi tertinggi dan dilantik sebagai speaker Dewan yang baharu.
Timbul persoalan … adakah speaker akan memihak kepada pihak yang melantik beliau. Menurut Iswardi sepatutnya Speaker tidak memihak dan mengendalikan mesyuarat berdasarkan peraturan tetap dewan rakyat. Kebisingan dan ketidakcekapan yang berlaku dalam persidangan dewan rakyat ketika ini ekoran ahli parlimen yang tidak cekap dalam membahaskan isu-isu yang sepatutnya dibahaskan dan adanya ahli parlimen yang menyuarakan isu-isu yang sebenarnya langsung tiada dalam agenda mesyuarat.
Iswardi berharap speaker bersikap tegas kepada ahli parlimen yang melakukan provokasi berlebihan dalam parlimen dan memberi ruang dan masa seluasnya kepada semua ahli parlimen membahaskan isu-isu berkaitan permasalahan negara dan rakyat.

Iswardi Morni, activist lawyer from Sarawak – THE SPEAKER SHOULD BE FAIR IN HANDLING THE MEETING
Who is the new Parliament speaker? According to Iswardi, the rules of the Dewan Rakyat meeting state that the speaker candidate will be voted on if there are 2 or more nominations. Based on the understanding of the parties currently supporting Anwar. It is very likely that the speaker candidate from PH will get the highest number of votes and be appointed as the new speaker of the House.
The question arises ... will the speaker be in favor of the party that appointed him. According to Iswardi, the Speaker should be impartial and conduct meetings based on the regular rules of the people's council. The noise and inefficiency that is happening in the current parliament session is due to parliamentarians who are incompetent in debating issues that should be debated and there are parliamentarians who voice issues that are actually not on the agenda of the meeting.
Iswardi hopes the speaker will be strict with parliamentarians who engage in excessive provocation in parliament and give ample space and time to all parliamentarians to debate issues related to the problems of the country and the people.</description>

Kee Hui Yee, Ahli Jawatankuasa Undang-undang Perlembagaan Majlis Peguam – SOSMA BERTENTANGAN DENGAN HAK ASASI MANUSIA, HARI DIKAJI SEMULA DAN DIMANSUHKAN
Kenyataan menteri dalam negeri yang baharu Saifuddin Nasution Ismail bahawa tiada keperluan menyemak semula SOSMA amat mengecewakan menurut Kee Hui Yee.
Antara 10 perkara tersebut- berikut 3 daripadanya yang benar-benar tidak memberi keadilan kepada mereka yang ditahan atau dituduh;
Iaitu pihak polis boleh menahan mana-mana individu dan tak perlu dibawa ke mahkamah sehingga 28 hari. Ini menindas dan menjejaskan hak asasi manusia. Selain itu menurut Hui Yee Seksyen30 SOSMA memberi layanan tidak adil kepada tahanan. Tahanan boleh ditahan di penjara sehingga semua perbicaraan dan rayuan selesai di mahkamah. Bayangkan jika semua proses mahkamah melibatkan mahkamah tinggi, mahkamah rayuan dan mahkamah persekutuan memakan masa 5 hingga 10 tahun. Tahanan masih belum boleh dibebaskan. Dan perkara ketiga yang juga tak adil dalam SOSMA adalah saksi yang memberi keterangan atau bukti boleh disembunyikan identitinya oleh pendakwaraya. Ini menyukarkan pihak pembelaan mencabar keterangan yang diberi oleh saksi. 
Dengan kelemahan-kelemahan ini. Wajar SOSMA dikaji semula dan dimansuhkan mana-mana bahagian yang bertentangan dengan hak asasi manusia.

Kee Hui Yee, Member of Bar Council Constitutional Law Committee – SOSMA IS AGAINST HUMAN RIGHTS, SHOULD BE REVIEWED AND REPEALED
The new home minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail's statement that there is no need to review SOSMA is disappointing according to Kee Hui Yee.
Among those 10 things - the following 3 of them really do not give justice to those arrested or accused
That is, the police can arrest any individual and do not need to be brought to court for up to 28 days. This oppresses and undermines human rights. In addition, according to Hui Yee, Section 30 of SOSMA gives unfair treatment to detainees. Detainees can be held in jail until all trials and appeals are completed in court. Imagine if all the court processes involving the high court, the appeal court and the federal court took 5 to 10 years. Prisoners have yet to be released. And the third thing that is also unfair in SOSMA is that witnesses who give evidence or evidence can have their identity hidden by the prosecutor. This makes it difficult for the defense to challenge the testimony given by the witness.
With these weaknesses. SOSMA should be reviewed and repealed any part that is against human rights.</itunes:summary>

Kedua kejayaan mengalahkan Parti PAS dan PPBN adalah kejayaan memerangi ekstremisme kaum dan agama. Dan ketiga pentadbiran PH yang diterajui Anwar akan memberi banyak keuntungan untuk Sarawak.
John menjelaskan bahawa - ketegasan Anwar meminta supaya apa-apa isu bersangkutan MA63 diselesaikan dalam masa sebulan adalah keputusan yang luar biasa. PN tidak dapat membuat keputusan dalam isu ini walaupun telah 3 tahun memerintah. BN telah memerintah selama lebih 60 tahun.

The voters choose PH because they want to see a clean, tolerant, and honest government, and concern the people and the country.
Abang Johari said that GPS wants to retain four ministerial posts in the new federal Cabinet, the same as in the previous administration. Roland said this is no problem, but Sarawak MPs are not only GPS, but also MPs from PH-DAP, as well as senior politicians in PKR, so are also suitable candidates.

Roland Engan, Presiden PKR Sarawak – BERSETUJU EMPAT MENTERI DARI SARAWAK, TETAPI BUKAN SEMUA DARI GPS, JUGA DARI DAP DAN PKR
PH adalah blok terbesar dalam kerajaan perpaduan, dan Roland berharap PH dilantik kepada jawatan yang penting. Perkara yang paling penting ialah membentuk kerajaan yang bersih dan adil. Beliau berharap ahli parlimen yang mempunyai kes mahkamah tidak dimasukkan ke dalam kabinet. Jika ada yang terpilih, beliau berharap kes berkaitan soal siasat seperti biasa. Beliau bertaka, pengundi memilih PH kerana mahu melihat kerajaan yang bersih, bertolak ansur, dan jujur, serta prihatin kepada rakyat dan negara.
Abang Johari berkata GPS mahu mengekalkan empat jawatan menteri dalam Kabinet baharu persekutuan, sama seperti pentadbiran terdahulu. Roland berkata ini tiada masalah, tetapi Ahli Parlimen Sarawak bukan sahaja GPS, malah Ahli Parlimen PH-DAP, serta ahli politik kanan dalam PKR, begitu juga calon yang sesuai.</itunes:summary>

Thomas Fann, Pengerusi Bersih 2.0 – JIKA ZAHID JADI TPM, TANPA PRINSIP KITA SUDAH KALAH
Dengan kerajaan perpaduan yang diketuai oleh Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim dari PH. Disebabkan PH tidak mendapat majoriti mudah. Kerajaan terdiri daripada beberapa parti PH, BN, GRS dan GPS. Jadi Anwar perlu membuat pertimbangan dalam pemilihan kabinet.
Apa yang kita bimbang, sudah ada beberapa cadangan parti, di mana TPM mestilah Ahmad Zahid Hamidi Presiden UMNO yang munasabah di mana BN bermain penting dengan 30 kerusi parlimen untuk bekerjasama dengan PH bagi membentuk majoriti yang kuat. Tetapi isu di sini ialah masih ada kes mahkamah yang belum selesai.
Pendirian kami ialah kabinet baharu kerajaan baharu tidak boleh dicemari dengan orang yang didakwa kerana rasuah. Termasuk Lim Guan Eng, Said Sadiq dan Bung Moktar.
Dengan PRU15, kita mempunyai peluang keemasan untuk membina semula Malaysia, jangan kita buang begitu sahaja dengan berkompromi dengan prinsip utama yang telah kita perjuangkan selama ini.

With current unity govt leads by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim of PH. Due PH didn't get simple majority. The government consists of several parties PH, BN, GRS and GPS. So Anwar has to make consideration in selection of cabinets. 
What we concerned, there are already some suggestions by parties, where the DPM must be Ahmad Zahid Hamidi UMNO president which is reasonable where BN play important with 30 parliamentary seats to collaborate with PH to form strong majority. But the issues here are that still has pending court cases. 
Our stand is that the new cabinet of new government must not be tarnished with people who are being charge for corruption. Including Lim Guan Eng, Said Sadiq and Bung Moktar.

Fahmi Fadzil, ketua penerangan PKR – BAGI MEREKA YANG MAIN SERANGAN POLITIK, JANGAN SENGAJA MEMUSNAHKAN HALA HUJU HARMONI KEBANGSAAN YANG BERLAKU SEKARANG
Hari ini adalah hari ke-7 Anwar sebagai perdana menteri. Bagaimanapun, senarai kabinet yang ditunggu-tunggu seluruh negara masih belum dikeluarkan. Fahmi berkata, perkara paling penting sekarang ialah memastikan kerajaan Perpaduan adalah perpaduan yang sebenar, dan masyarakat juga perpaduan, supaya tidak ada pihak yang sengaja memusnahkan hala tuju harmoni di seluruh negara.
Beliau berkata bahawa Ahli Parlimen PN Baling telah membuat dakwaan "pengaruh Israel" dalam pelantikan Anwar sebagai perdana menteri. Perkara ini telah diserahkan kepada pihak polis untuk siasat. Ada yang menggunakan media sosial untuk menyebarkan maklumat palsu. Beliau berharap rakyat dapat menilai kesahihan maklumat dengan media rasmi.
Beliau berkata sekarang adalah untuk memulihkan kestabilan ekonomi dan politik Malaysia dan mendapatkan semula reputasi Harimau Asia. Bagaimanapun, orang yang berniat serius terus melakukan serangan politik yang tidak selari dengan hala tuju negara. Beliau berharap golongan ini lebih memikirkan kebajikan rakyat.

He said that PN Baling MP had made allegations of “Israeli influence” in Anwar’s appointment as prime minister. This matter has been handed over to the police for investigation. Some are using social media to spread false information. He hopes that the people can judge the authenticity of the information and find the truth from the official media.
He said that now is to revive Malaysia's economic and political stability and regain the reputation of the Asian Tiger. However, people with serious intentions continue to carry out political attacks, which is out of sync with the direction of the country.

&gt; Mr Jimmy from Miri – Priority task for DSAI is to improving economy for B40 and M40 groups

------------------------------------------------------------

Iswardy Morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak – CABARAN SETERUSNYA ADALAH ENAM PILIHANRAYA PADA TAHUN DEPAN
Saiz kabinet dikurangkan, dan ramai orang bimbang tentang pengagihan yang tidak sekata, yang tidak dapat memuaskan hati setiap parti atau gabungan dalam kerajaan perpaduan. Iswardy berkata, walaupun kabinet telah kecil, pengagihan itu masih berdasarkan jumlah kerusi yang dimenangi oleh setiap gabungan/parti. Justeru dipercayai hanya PH dan BN sahaja yang akan membentuk kabinet yang tidak menjadi masalah.
Kelompok Mahkamah tidak boleh masuk kabinet, ia adalah satu kemestian. BN juga ada Tok Mat dan lain-lain yang boleh menjadi TPM.
19 Disember adalah hari pertama Parlimen. Anwar mesti membuktikan bahawa dia mempunyai sokongan yang mencukupi. Iswardy percaya selagi Zahid memastikan sokongan BN tidak berganjak, ia tidak menjadi masalah. Terima atau tidak, PH boleh jadi kerajaan bergantung kepada BN yang dibawa oleh Zahid untuk menyertai.
Tumpuan kini adalah pada enam pilihan raya negeri tahun depan. Kedah, Terengganu, dan Kelantan merupakan negeri kubu PN, dan baki tiga lagi untuk PH beri perhatian untuk menfokuskan, supaya tidak membenarkan PN mengambil kesempatan.

Iswardy Morni, activist lawyer from Sarawak – NEXT CHALLENGES WILL BE SIX STATE ELECTIONS ON NEXT YEART
The cabinet size is reduced, and many people are worried about the uneven distribution, which cannot satisfy every parties or alliance in the unity government. Iswardy said that although the cabinet has resized, the arrangement is still based on the number of seats won by each alliance/parties. Therefore, it is believed that only PH and BN will form the cabinet, which is not a problem and does not require the participation of other political parties.
The Court cluster cannot enter the cabinet, it is a must. BN has tok mat and others who can become TPM. he believes Zahid will take care of the overall situation and will not cause trouble.
December 19 is the first day of Parliament. Anwar must prove that he has enough support. iswardy believe that as long as Zahid ensures that BN's support does not move, it will not be a problem. Accept or not, PH can become the government depends on the BN brought by Zahid to join.
The focus now is on next year's six state elections. It is known that kedah, tereggganu, and kelantan are the fortress states of PN, and the remaining three are for PH to pay attention to attack, so as not to allow PN to take advantage of it.</itunes:summary>

&gt; Randau Khas: Lantikan Kabinet bukan ‘ganjaran’ sokong bentuk kerajaan, tegas Anwar
&gt; Iswardy Morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak – cabaran seterusnya ialah enam pilihan raya negeri pada tahun depan
&gt; Thomas Fann, pengerusi Bersih – Perdana Menteri dan Menteri Kewangan tidak boleh dipegang oleh orang yang sama
&gt; Siti Kasim, aktivis peguam – Jangan masukan unsur agama dalam sistem pendidikan kita
&gt; Encik Jimmy dari Miri – Tugas keutamaan DSAI ialah meningkatkan ekonomi bagi kumpulan B40 dan M40

On Today Show:
&gt; special randau: PM Anwar- Cabinet appointments not a reward for supporting formation of govt
&gt; Iswardy Morni, activist lawyer from Sarawak – next challenges will be six state elections on next year 
&gt; Thomas Fann, chairperson of Bersih – Prime Minister and Finance Minister cannot be same person 
&gt; Siti Kasim, lawyer activist – We must get out the religion in our education system 
&gt; Mr Jimmy from Miri – Priority task for DSAI is to improving economy for B40 and M40 groups

Iswardy Morni, peguam aktivis dari Sarawak – CABARAN SETERUSNYA ADALAH ENAM PILIHANRAYA PADA TAHUN DEPAN
Saiz kabinet dikurangkan, dan ramai orang bimbang tentang pengagihan yang tidak sekata, yang tidak dapat memuaskan hati setiap parti atau gabungan dalam kerajaan perpaduan. Iswardy berkata, walaupun kabinet telah kecil, pengagihan itu masih berdasarkan jumlah kerusi yang dimenangi oleh setiap gabungan/parti. Justeru dipercayai hanya PH dan BN sahaja yang akan membentuk kabinet yang tidak menjadi masalah.
Kelompok Mahkamah tidak boleh masuk kabinet, ia adalah satu kemestian. BN juga ada Tok Mat dan lain-lain yang boleh menjadi TPM.
19 Disember adalah hari pertama Parlimen. Anwar mesti membuktikan bahawa dia mempunyai sokongan yang mencukupi. Iswardy percaya selagi Zahid memastikan sokongan BN tidak berganjak, ia tidak menjadi masalah. Terima atau tidak, PH boleh jadi kerajaan bergantung kepada BN yang dibawa oleh Zahid untuk menyertai.
Tumpuan kini adalah pada enam pilihan raya negeri tahun depan. Kedah, Terengganu, dan Kelantan merupakan negeri kubu PN, dan baki tiga lagi untuk PH beri perhatian untuk menfokuskan, supaya tidak membenarkan PN mengambil kesempatan.

Dr Ong Kian Ming, bekas Ahli Parlimen DAP Bangi – Sama ada Anwar boleh memastikan kestabilan kerajaan baharu bergantung kepada pilihan raya negeri akan datang dan pemilihan parti UMNO
Untuk menjadikan kerajaan perpaduan yang kukuh, adalah dicadangkan untuk melakukan dua perkara berikut:
1- Jangan buat kesilapan yang sama seperti Muhyiddin, iaitu semasa membentuk kerajaan, tolak parti kem lain, lebih-lebih lagi apabila PH tidak diberi peluang menyertai kabinet;
2- Jemput warisan, GPS, GRS dan lain-lain untuk menyertai kabinet perpaduan. Pada masa yang sama, tandatangani MOU dengan PN dan jemput ke kabinet juga
Pada masa ini, sukar untuk meramalkan pilihan raya akan datang, bagaimana PH dan pakatan lain akan berjuang. Lagipun masih ada dua situasi yang akan membawa ketidakstabilan kepada kerajaan PH. Satu ialah terdapat enam pilihan raya negeri tahun depan. Sama ada rundingan dan perbalahan akan menjejaskan kerajaan PH; kedua, pemilihan parti Umno dan siapa pengerusinya juga akan mempunyai pengaruh yang berbeza terhadap PH.
Sebab itu, sama ada PN atau PH, kerana ia bukan majoriti besar, ia mesti bekerjasama dengan parti politik di Sabah dan Sarawak untuk membentuk kerajaan. Ini mungkin bukan yang PH Sarawak suka, tetapi demi keadaan keseluruhan, GPS mesti dijemput ke dalam kerajaan.

Dr Ong Kian Ming, DAP ex-MP of Bangi – Whether Anwar can ensure the stability of the new government depends on the upcoming state elections and UMNO party elections
To make the unity government strong, it is suggested to do the following two things:
1- Don't make the same mistake as Muhyiddin done, that is, when forming the government, exclude other camp parties, especially when PH was not given any chance to join the cabinet;
2- Invite warisan, GPS, GRS, etc. to join unity cabinet. At the same time, sign an MOU with PN and to invite to the cabinet too
At present, it is difficult to predict the next election, how PH and other alliances will fight. After all, there are still two situations that will bring instability to the PH government. One is that there will be six state elections next year. Whether negotiations and wrangling will affect PH's government; secondly, the Umno party election and who is the chairman will also have different influences on PH.
Therefore, this is why, whether it is PN or PH, because it is not a big majority, it must cooperate with political parties in Sabah and Sarawak to form a government. This may not be what PH Sarawak likes, but for the sake of the overall situation, GPS must be invited into the government.</itunes:summary>

Tiada satu gabungan boleh menjadi kerajaan. Walaupun PH mempunyai 82 kerusi sebagai gabungan yang memenangi kerusi terbanyak, ia kurang daripada 111, jadi ia perlu bekerjasama dengan gabungan lain. Ironinya, BN yang memenangi 30 kerusi menjadi king maker.
Tidak bersetuju memilih perdana menteri melalui Perjanjian Keyakinan dan Bekalan (CSA), yang akan menggugat kestabilan parlimen. Sama seperti selepas langkah shareton, PN dan BN tidak dapat bersetuju dengan syarat dan kepentingan, yang membawa kepada kemelut di parlimen.
Perkara terbaik ialah menyediakan masa yang cukup selama 1 hingga 2 minggu untuk membolehkan pakatan yang berhasrat bekerjasama untuk berunding dan berbincang, membincangkan manifesto yang mereka bersetuju antara satu sama lain, dan menandatangani MOU. Barulah wujud kerajaan yang stabil.

No coalition alone can become a government. Although PH has 82 seats as the coalition winning the most seats, it is less than 111, so it needs to cooperate with other coalitions. Ironically, BN, which won 30 seats, became the king maker.

Pastor Greman dari Kuching – Muhyiddin tidak menghormati pelbagai agama di Malaysia, dia harus ditolak
PM dan pengerusi PN rasmi Muhyiddin Yassin berkata "sangat berbahaya" untuk Pakatan Harapan kembali berkuasa, mendakwa beliau melihat video sekumpulan Yahudi yang "ditaja" oleh pembangkang. Dalam klip video itu, beliau berkata ini "berbahaya" dan mempersoalkan jika akan ada "proses Kristianisasi".
Majlis Gereja-gereja Malaysia (CCM) telah membidas Muhyiddin Yassin kerana mendakwa bahawa penganut Kristian di Malaysia "bergabung dengan sekumpulan orang Yahudi untuk mengkristiankan Malaysia".
Pastor Greman mengecam kenyataan Tan Sri Muhyiddin yang tidak menghormati pelbagai agama di Malaysia. Apalah erti slogan Keluarga Malaysia jika tidak menghormati sentimen perkauman.
Pemimpin seperti ini wajar ditolak demi kemakmuran negara dan rakyat.
Apa salahnya negara luar mendoakan Malaysia? Tak Salah, sebab banyak negara luar sangat prihatin dengan Malaysia.

The formar PM and PN chairman Muhyiddin Yassin said it was “very dangerous” for Pakatan Harapan to return to power, claiming he saw a video of a group of Jews that were “sponsored” by the opposition. In the video clip, he said this was “dangerous” and questioned if there will be a “Christianisation process”.
The Council of Churches of Malaysia (CCM) has slammed Muhyiddin Yassin for claiming that Christians in Malaysia were “in concert with a group of Jews to Christianise Malaysia”.
Pastor Greman condemned Tan Sri Muhyiddin's statements that disrespected the multiple religions in Malaysia. What is the meaning of the Malaysian Family slogan if it does not respect racial sentiments.

Thomas Fann, pengerusi Bersih 2.0 – Ismail menyalahgunakan kuasa untuk mengeluarkan bantuan tunai sekarang, apabila ia sepatutnya dikeluarkan pada Dis
Terdapat 3 isu di sini.
Pertama ialah pengumuman oleh PM sementara pelepasan BKM (bantuan tunai) pada 15 November dan selesai pada 18 November semasa kita berada dalam masa pilihan raya. Tidak wajar Ismail melepaskan BKM. Dia hanya seorang penjaga. PM mengambil kesempatan untuk menyalahgunakan kuasa melepaskan BKM sekarang. BKM sepatutnya dikeluarkan pada Disember 2022.
Isu kedua ialah Pertubuhan Masyarakat Sivil menggesa SPR bertindak balas terhadap kebocoran data myspr. SPR mempunyai lebih 21 juta data. Orang ramai bimbang data mereka habis dijual, terutamanya kepada penipu. Thomas sendiri sangat bimbang kerana dia mempunyai akaun pautan dengan SPR. CSO menggesa SPR menyiasat dan mengambil tindakan terhadap seseorang yang membocorkan data.
Ketiga di mana masih ada rakyat Malaysia yang belum menerima kertas undi mereka kerana tinggal beberapa hari lagi untuk pilihan raya. Dan mereka mungkin terlepas peluang mengundi kali ini

There are 3 issues here. 
First is announcement by caretaker PM of releasing of BKM (cash aid) on 15th November and complete on 18th November while we are in election time. It is not appropriate for Ismail to release BKM. He just a caretaker. PM is taking advantage to abuse his power to release BKM now. BKM is supposed to be released in December 2022.
Second issue is on Civil Society Organizations are urging SPR to response to leakage data myspr. SPR has over 21 millions datas. Public are worry of their data being sold out, especially to scammer. Thomas himself is very worry as he had link account with SPR. CSOs urging SPR to investigate and taking actions against a person who leaked the datas.

Oscar Ling, calon DAP P212 Sibu – Malaysia kini terkenal bukan kerana Musang King tetapi kerana skandal rasuah. Pilih PH untuk reformasi
Dalam pilihan raya negara ini, selain memilih kerajaan, ia juga memilih perdana menteri yang boleh memimpin reformasi negara. PH ialah Anwar, PN ialah Muhyddin dan BN ialah Zahid.
Rakyat kini memilih pakatan untuk memutuskan perdana menteri mana yang boleh memimpin pasukannya untuk memulihkan negara.
Muhyiddin telah membuktikan ketidakmampuannya untuk memimpin negara sejak dua tahun lalu; Perdana menteri BN mesti Zahid, Ismail tiada peluang. Dan adakah rakyat akan memilih Zahid, seorang yang mempunyai 47 kes rasuah, sebagai perdana menteri?
GPS dan BN berada dalam kumpulan yang sama, dan mengundi GPS adalah sama dengan mengundi BN, yang tidak diragukan lagi. Bagi PSB, pilihan raya kali ini ada 7 kerusi, tetapi mereka tidak menyatakan gabungan mana yang mereka sokong, bermakna mereka mengundi mereka tetapi pilihan perdana menteri diserahkan kepada mereka.
Malaysia kini terkenal bukan kerana Musang King tetapi kerana skandal rasuah. Kejatuhan mendadak ringgit dan penderitaan ekonomi rakyat semuanya memerlukan kerajaan baharu yang mampu untuk menyelesaikannya, dan hanya PH boleh melakukannya.

Oscar Ling, DAP candidate of P212 Sibu – Malaysia is now famous not for Musang King but for corruption scandals. Choose PH to reform
In this national election, in addition to electing a government, it is also electing a prime minister who can lead the country's reforms. PH is Anwar, PN is Muhyddin and BN is Zahid.
The people now choose the alliance to decide which prime minister can lead his team to restore the country.
Muhyiddin has proved his inability to lead the country over the past two years; BN's prime minister must be Zahid, Ismail has no chance. And are the people going to choose Zahid, a man with 47 corruption cases, as prime minister?
GPS and BN are in the same group, and voting for GPS is equivalent to voting for BN, which is beyond doubt. As for PSB, there are 7 seats in this election, but they did not say which coalition they support, which means they voted for them but the choice of the prime minister is left to them.

Wo Chang Xi, Penyelidik di Pejabat Rangkaian Penyelesaian Pembangunan Lestari Asia – Pejuang Mahathir mungkin hanya mendapat sokongan di Kedah
Beliau juga percaya Pejuang Mahathir hanya boleh mendapat kerusi di Kedah kerana Kedah mempunyai pengundi tetap yang menyokong Mahathir dan anaknya Mukhriz. Beliau mengambil pilihan raya negeri Johor tahun lalu sebagai contoh. Undi Pejuang hanya 2-3%. Beliau percaya perkara yang sama dalam PRU kali ini, yang tidak akan memberi kesan kepada percikan undi.
Pengundi Melayu akan mengundi PH, PN dan BN. Bagi parti politik lain, hanya kerusi parlimen tertentu seperti zuraidah di ampang, mahathir di Langkawi, dan Mukhriz di Jerlun berpeluang menang.
Beliau berkata ramalan minggu lepas ialah BN akan menang, tetapi tidak melebihi 112 kerusi. Bagaimanapun, minggu ini BN dilanda banjir pada musim hujan. Pada masa ini tiada satu gabungan (PH, BN, PN) boleh mendapat lebih daripada 112 kerusi, jadi mesti bekerjasama dengan gabungan di Malaysia Timur - GPS, GRS dan Warisan.

Wo Chang Xi, Researcher at Sustainable Development Solutions Network Asia Office – Mahathir’s Pejuang may only get support in Kedah
He also believes that Mahathir's Pejuang can only get a seat in Kedah because Kedah has regular voters who support Mahathir and his son Mukhriz. He took last year's Johor state election as an example. Pejuang's votes only accounted for 2-3%. He believes that the same in this GE, which will not have the effect of slpiting votes.
Malay voters will vote for PH, PN and BN. As for other political parties, only certain parliamentary seats such as zuraidah in ampang, mahathir in Langkawi, and Mukhriz in Jerlun have a chance of winning.
He said last week's forecast was for BN to prevail, but not more than 112 seats. However, this week, BN was affected by floods in the rainy season. Currently no one coalition (PH, BN, PN) can get more than 112 seats, so must work with the coalitions in East Malaysia - GPS, GRS and Warisan.</itunes:summary>

Dr Tun Mahathir, bekas perdana menteri dan presiden PEJUANG – Zahid bukan perdana menteri, beliau masih boleh memanipulasi perdana menteri
Sekarang ini musim hujan, dan banyak kawasan dinaiki air. Beliau percaya bahawa adalah satu keputusan yang salah untuk mengadakan pilihan raya pada masa ini. Ramai orang menghadapi masalah banjir atau mobiliti, jadi ramai orang tidak akan dapat mengundi. Beliau melihat ini sebagai salah satu rancangan (BN) untuk mengurangkan peratusan keluar mengundi.
Mengenai komitmen BN terhadap ismail sebagai perdana menteri, beliau percaya walau apa pun janji BN, kawalan di tangan zahid. Walaupun Zahid bukan perdana menteri, dia masih boleh memanipulasi perdana menteri.
Terdapat 1 juta pengundi berumur 18-21 tahun pada pilihan raya umum ini. Mengenai sama ada pengundi muda akan menyokong Pejuang atau dirinya sendiri, beliau berkata akan cuba menjelaskan kepada pengundi muda bahawa kerajaan sekarang dikendalikan oleh sekumpulan penjenayah, yang sebahagiannya telah dipenjarakan. Jika negara ingin disusun semula, maka kritikal ini mesti dikecualikan.
Beberapa video tular di media sosial menunjukkan BN memberi wang atau pakaian parti, katanya, mereka ini bukan ahli parti, tetapi BN kaya dengan pemberian wang atau objek lain iaitu rasuah.

Dr Tun Mahathir, former prime minister and president of PEJUANG – Even Zahid not prime minister, he still can manipulate the prime minister
It is currently the rainy season, and many areas are flooded. He believes that it is a wrong decision to hold elections at this time. Many people face flooding or mobility problems, so many people will not be able to vote. He sees this as one of the (BN) plans to reduce turnout to vote.
Regarding BN's commitment to ismail as the prime minister, he believes that no matter what BN promises, the control is in the hands of zahid. Even Zahid not prime minister, he still can manipulate the prime minister.
There are 1 million voters aged 18-21 in this general election. As for whether young voters will support Pejuang or himself, he said that he will try to explain to young voters that the current government is run by a group of criminals, some of whom have been jailed. If the country is to be reorganized, then this critical must be excluded.

Terserah kepada SPR untuk membatalkan pengundian sekiranya berlaku banjir besar, kata Ismail Sabri. Bukankah ini yang kita tekankan, jangan adakan pilihanraya pada musim hujan? Bukankah ini sepatutnya sudah lama tertangguh?
Dennis berkata mungkin Ismail fikir PH akan mendapat sokongan dua pertiga pada PRU15, atau mungkin merasakan BN dipertaruhkan, sebab itu beliau membuat cadangan itu.
Ini adalah kerajaan dan perdana menteri yang sangat lemah. Perdana menteri tanpa arahan boleh membuat keputusan sewenang-wenangnya tanpa berfikir dan merancang untuk rakyat. Sekarang adalah tidak bertanggungjawab untuk menolak isu itu kembali kepada SPR.
Apa lagi yang boleh EC buat? Persediaan untuk pilihan raya sudah pun dijalankan, dan saya percaya ia hanya boleh diteruskan.

Up to EC to call off polls in event of major floods, says Ismail Sabri. Isn't this what we have been emphasizing, don't hold elections during the rainy season? Shouldn't this be long overdue?
Dennis said perhaps Ismail thought PH would get two-thirds support at GE15, or perhaps felt that BN was at stake, which is why he made the proposal.
This is a very weak government and prime minister. The prime minister without direction can make arbitrary decisions without thinking and planning for the people. Now it is irresponsible to push the issue back to the EC.

[Laporan dari pusat media PKR Sarawak] Hary Wing Miku, ketua komunikasi PKR Sarawak bersama Iswardy Morni, aktivis peguam dari Sarawak – CUTI KAKITANGAN KKM BEKU, TERLAMBAT UNTUK MEMOHON UNDI POS, DISYAKI SECARA SENGAJA
Undian Awal/Pengundian Pos - Tarikh tutup kategori 1A (Pegawai Pilihan Raya, anggota/pegawai SPR, anggota polis, anggota tentera, dan petugas media) adalah pada 2 November. Manakala kategori 1B (warganegara Malaysia yang berada di luar negara) pada 23 Oktober dan kategori 1C (agensi/organisasi) pada 26 Oktober.
Kami menerima info bahawa KKM mengumumkan pada 25 Oktober bahawa kakitangan KKM tidak boleh bercuti, tidak boleh mengundi pada hari pengundian, dan perlu bertugas. Namun, apabila petugas mendapat berita tersebut, sudah terlambat untuk memohon Pengundian Awal/Pengundian Pos. Menurut Iswardy, ia adalah Sabotaj. Beliau berkata, BN mungkin membuat tinjauan, menunjukkan kakitangan KKM tidak berpuas hati dalam tempoh covid, jadi lebih ramai yang cenderung kepada parti pembangkang, yang berkemungkinan kakitangan KKM tidak dapat mengundi.

[Report from Sarawak PKR media center] Hary Wing Miku, head of communication PKR Sarawak with Iswardy Morni, lawyer activist from Sarawak – KKM FROZE STAFF HOLIDAYS, TOO LATE TO APPLY FOR POSTAL VOTE, SUSPECTED TO BE INTENTIONALLY
Early Voting/Postal Voting - The closing date for category 1A (Election Officers, EC members/officers, police personnel, military personnel, and media personnel) is November 2. Meanwhile, category 1B (Malaysian citizens who are abroad) on October 23 and category 1C (agencies/organizations) on October 26.
We received info that KKM announced on 25 October that KKM's staff could not take leave, could not vote on the polling day, and had to be on duty. However, when the staff got the news, it was too late to apply for Early Voting/Postal Voting. According to Iswardy, it's Sabotage. He said that BN may have conducted a survey, show that KKM staff were dissatisfied during the covid period, so more people tended to the opposition party, which might be a possibility that KKM staff could not vote.</itunes:summary>

[Laporan dari pusat media PKR Sarawak] Hary Wing Miku, ketua komunikasi PKR Sarawak bersama Iswardy Morni, aktivis peguam dari Sarawak – CUTI KAKITANGAN KKM BEKU, TERLAMBAT UNTUK MEMOHON UNDI POS, DISYAKI SECARA SENGAJA
Undian Awal/Pengundian Pos - Tarikh tutup kategori 1A (Pegawai Pilihan Raya, anggota/pegawai SPR, anggota polis, anggota tentera, dan petugas media) adalah pada 2 November. Manakala kategori 1B (warganegara Malaysia yang berada di luar negara) pada 23 Oktober dan kategori 1C (agensi/organisasi) pada 26 Oktober.
Kami menerima info bahawa KKM mengumumkan pada 25 Oktober bahawa kakitangan KKM tidak boleh bercuti, tidak boleh mengundi pada hari pengundian, dan perlu bertugas. Namun, apabila petugas mendapat berita tersebut, sudah terlambat untuk memohon Pengundian Awal/Pengundian Pos. Menurut Iswardy, ia adalah Sabotaj. Beliau berkata, BN mungkin membuat tinjauan, menunjukkan kakitangan KKM tidak berpuas hati dalam tempoh covid, jadi lebih ramai yang cenderung kepada parti pembangkang, yang berkemungkinan kakitangan KKM tidak dapat mengundi.

[Report from Sarawak PKR media center] Hary Wing Miku, head of communication PKR Sarawak with Iswardy Morni, lawyer activist from Sarawak – KKM FROZE STAFF HOLIDAYS, TOO LATE TO APPLY FOR POSTAL VOTE, SUSPECTED TO BE INTENTIONALLY
Early Voting/Postal Voting - The closing date for category 1A (Election Officers, EC members/officers, police personnel, military personnel, and media personnel) is November 2. Meanwhile, category 1B (Malaysian citizens who are abroad) on October 23 and category 1C (agencies/organizations) on October 26.
We received info that KKM announced on 25 October that KKM's staff could not take leave, could not vote on the polling day, and had to be on duty. However, when the staff got the news, it was too late to apply for Early Voting/Postal Voting. According to Iswardy, it's Sabotage. He said that BN may have conducted a survey, show that KKM staff were dissatisfied during the covid period, so more people tended to the opposition party, which might be a possibility that KKM staff could not vote.</description>

Esok adalah hari penamaan calon PRU15. Bagaimana pengundi memilih dan bagaimana mereka mengundi?
Pertama sekali, kita perlu lihat, parti politik manakah calon itu? Sebagai contoh, jika dia seorang yang baik dan rajin, tetapi dia mewakili UMNO atau GPS, maka dia tidak melakukan apa-apa. Kerana hala tuju sesebuah parti banyak berkait dengan masa depan. Adakah beliau dari parti politik yang korup, dan sudah 60 tahun dalam kerajaan dan masih tidak membawa pembangunan kepada rakyat?

First of all, we need to see, which political party is the candidate from? For example, if he is a good man and a hard worker, but he represents UMNO or GPS, then he does nothing after all. Because the direction a party leads has a lot to do with the future.

Roland Engan, Ketua PKR Sarawak – undi PH, untuk membentuk GOV boleh reformasi negara
Roland Engan dilantik sebagai calon Baram sekali lagi.
Beliau berkata ini adalah pilihan raya umum untuk memilih kerajaan dan perdana menteri yang boleh menerajui reformasi negara. Segala isu yang boleh diselesaikan seperti pendidikan, pengangkutan, merancakkan ekonomi negara, memerangi rasuah, semuanya memerlukan kerajaan yang bersih untuk dilaksanakan.
Beliau menggesa rakyat supaya memahami dengan jelas bahawa masalah yang mereka hadapi ketika ini boleh diselesaikan oleh kerajaan persekutuan. Hanya dengan mengundi PH/PKR mereka yang berkemampuan boleh dihantar ke Parlimen untuk menyelesaikan masalah rakyat dan negara.
Hari ini, penduduk kampung long bedian pergi ke majlis perbandaran miri untuk flash mob membantah ketua kampung baru yang dilantik oleh kerajaan tanpa lantikan rasmi. Roland berkata, ini berlaku pada 2019, apabila mahkamah memutuskan ketua kampung itu tidak sah, dan kini orang yang sama dilantik semula. Oleh itu, untuk meminta kerajaan mematuhi prosedur tersebut, kedua-dua pelantikan penghulu dan temenggong diperlukan supaya pelantikan itu sah.

Today, long bedian villagers went to the miri municipal council for a flash mob to protest the new village chief who appoint by gov without formal appointment. Roland said that this happened in 2019, when the court had ruled that the village chief was invalid, and now the same person has been appointed again.

Teo Nie Ching, bekas MP Kulai – jika BN menang, zahid akan menjadi perdana menteri
Empat menteri Kabinet BN di bawah pentadbiran Perdana Menteri, Ismail Sabri Yaakob, digugurkan sebagai calon PRU15.
Teo berkata, walaupun pemimpin BN asyik mengatakan Ismail akan menjadi PM, tetapi kita tahu Zahid yang merupakan pengerusi UMNO adalah yang paling berkuasa. Menteri dan timbalan menteri yang diganti adalah penyokong ismail, itu menunjukkan Zahid tidak mempunyai sokongan yang cukup dalam kabinet untuk beliau menjadi perdana menteri.
Ia boleh dilihat daripada pilihan raya negeri Johor. Sebelum pilihan raya, BN berkata ketua menteri ketika itu Hasni Bin Mohammad akan dipilih semula, dan teo sendiri mengakui prestasi Hasni adalah baik. Tetapi selepas pilihan raya, BN menang dan melantik Onn Hafiz, orang Najib. Maka dapat dilihat dari sini bahawa janji UMNO tidak boleh dipercayai.
Jadi, dalam pilihan raya umum ini, jika BN menang, zahid akan menjadi perdana menteri.
Rakyat mesti undi PH jika tidak mahu zahid jadi perdana menteri.

Teo Nie Ching, ex MP of Kulai – if BN wins, zahid will be the prime minister
Four BN Cabinet ministers under the administration of the Prime Minister, Ismail Sabri Yaakob, were dropped as candidates for GE15.
Teo said that although the leaders of BN kept saying that Ismail would become PM, but we know that Zahid, who is the chairman of UMNO, is the most powerful. The replaced ministers and deputy ministers were ismail supporters, it show that Zahid did not have enough support in the cabinet for him to be prime minister.
It can be seen from the Johor state election. Before the election, BN said that the then chief minister Hasni Bin Mohammad would be re-elected, and teo herself admitted that Hasni's performance was good. But after the election, BN won and appointed Onn Hafiz, Najib's man. So it can be seen from here that the promise of UMNO cannot be trusted.
So, in this general election, if BN wins, zahid will be the prime minister.

Wong berkata itu tidak adil semasa BN menjadi kerajaan, bukan untuk memberi peruntukan kepada pembangkang, tetapi sekarang adalah perubahan.

Andrew Wong Ling Biu, Sarikei incumbent MP of DAP – HAVE NO FEAR, VOTE ACCORDING TO YOUR CHOICE
Wong Ling Biu has called on the people not to fear giving their vote to a candidate of their choice as the country has shown its preparedness to embark on a two-party system.
He pointed out that in the past, the people had to support the ruling government as they would not be able to get development fund if their elected representatives were from the opposition parties.
He said before that, the elected representatives from opposition parties had never been given allocation from the government to serve their constituency, but after PH won in the 14th general election, all elected representatives including those from the opposition parties have been allocated with funds to serve their constituents.
Wong said that is unfair while BN become government, not to given allocation to the opposition, but now is change.
Wong added two-party system provides check and balance to ensure a clean government and demands transparency and high level of integrity from the government</itunes:summary>

Andrew Wong Ling Biu, Sarikei incumbent MP of DAP – HAVE NO FEAR, VOTE ACCORDING TO YOUR CHOICE
Wong Ling Biu has called on the people not to fear giving their vote to a candidate of their choice as the country has shown its preparedness to embark on a two-party system.
He pointed out that in the past, the people had to support the ruling government as they would not be able to get development fund if their elected representatives were from the opposition parties.
He said before that, the elected representatives from opposition parties had never been given allocation from the government to serve their constituency, but after PH won in the 14th general election, all elected representatives including those from the opposition parties have been allocated with funds to serve their constituents.
Wong said that is unfair while BN become government, not to given allocation to the opposition, but now is change.
Wong added two-party system provides check and balance to ensure a clean government and demands transparency and high level of integrity from the government</description>

Lee Chean Chung, Pengarah Komunikasi PKR – ANWAR BERDEBAT DENGAN NAJIB DAN SABERY CHEE DULU, ADAKAH BUDAYA MALAYSIA, MUNGKIN ISMAIL SABRI TAKUT.
‘Bukan budaya kita’: Ismail Sabri tolak cabaran debat Anwar.
Debat adalah platform yang baik untuk rakyat membandingkan kedua-dua pihak keupayaan kepimpinan, kandungan dasar, dan lain-lain, dan kemudian membuat pilihan pada hari pengundian.
Mengikut rekod, Anwar dan Najib juga pernah berdebat secara terbuka beberapa bulan lalu. Pada 2008, Anwar turut membahaskan isu harga minyak dengan Menteri Penerangan Shabery Chee. Ini semua bukti, mungkinkah ismail sabri sedang tidur? Atau adakah dia pelupa?
Jika ini budaya biasa, ia membuktikan bahawa ismail bukan rakyat Malaysia? Inilah budaya negara kita, biar rakyat tahu pihak mana yang lebih mampu dan terpilih.
Mungkin ismail sabri takut berdebat. Jika dia tidak pandai berbahasa Inggeris, dia boleh memilih bahasa yang dia kenali.

Lee Chean Chung, Director of Communication PKR – ANWAR HAS DEBATE WITH NAJIB AND SABERY CHEE BEFORE, IS MALAYSIA CULTURE, MAYBE ISMAIL SABRI AFRAID
‘Not our culture’: Ismail Sabri rejects Anwar’s debate challenge.
The debate is a good platform for the people to compare the leadership capabilities, policy content, etc. of the two sides, and then make a choice on polling day.

&gt; Lee Chean Chung, Pengarah Komunikasi PKR – Anwar pernah berdebat dengan Najib dan Shabery Chee sebelum ini, debat adalah budaya Malaysia, mungkin Ismail Sabri takut
&gt; Bah Tony adalah seorang peguam dan Orang Asli dari Kelantan – jalan ditutup sementara semasa hari pengundian dekat? Adakah ia cuba menyekat OA mendapatkan maklumat untuk mengundi?
&gt; [APa Belia Mahu] Muhd Zaid, 21 tahun pelajar UPM dari Perak – nilai janji/manifesto calon boleh jadi realiti atau cakap kosong
&gt; Encik Robert dari Samarakan Bintulu – BNGPS memerintah 60 tahun masih tiada internet, sepuluh tahun lagi juga sama.

On Today Show:
&gt; Special Randau – beware! possible floods in Baram during GE15. does temporary BN gov ready to save the people? or still busying on campaigning? 
&gt; Lee Chean Chung, Director of Communication PKR – Anwar has debate with Najib and Shabery Chee before, is Malaysia culture, maybe Ismail Sabri afraid 
&gt; Bah Tony is a Laywer and Orang Asli from Kelantan – closed road while polling day is near? Is it trying to block OA get information for vote too?* 
&gt; [What Youth Want] Muhd Zaid, 21yo UPM student from Perak – evaluate the candidates promises/manifesto can become reality or just empty talk 
&gt; Mr Robert from Samarakan Bintulu – BNGPS ruled 60years still no internet,It's the same for ten more years

[BERITA UTAMA]
Lee Chean Chung, Pengarah Komunikasi PKR – ANWAR BERDEBAT DENGAN NAJIB DAN SABERY CHEE DULU, ADAKAH BUDAYA MALAYSIA, MUNGKIN ISMAIL SABRI TAKUT.
‘Bukan budaya kita’: Ismail Sabri tolak cabaran debat Anwar.
Debat adalah platform yang baik untuk rakyat membandingkan kedua-dua pihak keupayaan kepimpinan, kandungan dasar, dan lain-lain, dan kemudian membuat pilihan pada hari pengundian.
Mengikut rekod, Anwar dan Najib juga pernah berdebat secara terbuka beberapa bulan lalu. Pada 2008, Anwar turut membahaskan isu harga minyak dengan Menteri Penerangan Shabery Chee. Ini semua bukti, mungkinkah ismail sabri sedang tidur? Atau adakah dia pelupa?
Jika ini budaya biasa, ia membuktikan bahawa ismail bukan rakyat Malaysia? Inilah budaya negara kita, biar rakyat tahu pihak mana yang lebih mampu dan terpilih.
Mungkin ismail sabri takut berdebat. Jika dia tidak pandai berbahasa Inggeris, dia boleh memilih bahasa yang dia kenali.

Lee Chean Chung, Director of Communication PKR – ANWAR HAS DEBATE WITH NAJIB AND SABERY CHEE BEFORE, IS MALAYSIA CULTURE, MAYBE ISMAIL SABRI AFRAID
‘Not our culture’: Ismail Sabri rejects Anwar’s debate challenge.
The debate is a good platform for the people to compare the leadership capabilities, policy content, etc. of the two sides, and then make a choice on polling day.
According to the record, Anwar and Najib also had a public debate a few months ago. In 2008, Anwar also debated the oil price issue with Information Minister Shabery Chee. These are all proofs, could it be that ismail sabri is sleeping? Or is he forgetful?

[Laporan dari pusat media PKR Sarawak] Hary Wing Miku, ketua komunikasi PKR Sarawak bersama Iswardy Morni, aktivis peguam dari Sarawak – GPS ADALAH BN SARAWAK. IDEOLOGI GPS DAN BN SAMA
GPS akan menunggu sehingga hari pengundian pada 19 Nov untuk memutuskan parti politik mana yang akan bekerjasama kemudian, kata Timbalan Perdana Menteri Dato Sri Dr Sim Kui Hian.
GPS bukan untuk memimpin Sarawak ke hadapan, tetapi untuk melihat pakatan mana yang boleh memberi manfaat kepada mereka. GPS tiada arah tuju. Mereka tidak kisah siapa kerajaan, tetapi bergantung kepada siapa yang mempunyai tawaran terbaik. Di manakah prinsip mereka?
Syarat yang dicadangkan oleh GPS adalah berdasarkan kepentingan mereka, bukan tuntutan rakyat. Seperti projek, kroni. Sama ada menyertai PH atau apa sahaja, mereka akan membuat tawaran yang sama. Inilah kerugian rakyat.
Dr Sim juga mendakwa bahawa Undi untuk GPS bukanlah undi untuk Umno. Tetapi GPS adalah BN Sarawak. Ideologi GPS dan BN adalah sama, maka secara semula jadi tidak perlu BN kerana GPS adalah sama. Ia bukan soal etnik, tetapi ideologinya adalah sama.

GPS is not to lead Sarawak forward, but to see which alliance can benefit them. GPS has no direction. They don't care who the government is, but depends on who has the best offer. Where are their principles?
The conditions proposed by GPS are based on their interests, not the demands of the people. Such as projects, cronies. Whether it's participating in PH or whatever, they'll make the same offer. This is the loss of the people.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Oscar Ling, pengarah kempen DAP Sarawak untuk PRU15 – GPS TIADA KATA SOKONG PIHAK MANA, BERMAKSUD GPS AKAN MEMBAWA POLITIK TIDAK STABIL
Abang Johari berkata, gabungan dari Semenanjung Malaysia berminat untuk bekerjasama dengan Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) pada pilihan raya umum ke-15 (PRU15), dan GPS masih belum memutuskan perkara itu.
Oscar Ling berkata, GPS tiada pendirian, GPS akan mengikut siapa yang menang. Pendirian yang tidak stabil ini tidak baik untuk pembangunan rakyat dan negara.

Oscar Ling, DAP Sarawak's campaign director for GE15 – GPS NO STANDPOINT TO SIDE WHO, MEANS GPS WILL LEAD POLITICAL UNSTABLE
Abang Johari said that, a coalition from Peninsular Malaysia is interested in working with Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) in the 15th general election (GE15), and GPS had yet to decide on the matter.
Oscar Ling said that, GPS has no standpoint, GPS will follow whoever wins. This unstable standpoint is not good for the development of the people and the country. With the implementation of the anti-hopping law, no one can change party with the parliamentary seat. In Sarawak, however, if you vote for GPS, you will not know who GPS will work with, which will lead to political unstable. To ensure political stability, we must vote for PH.

Roland Engan mengulas bahawa, kenyataan bekas timbalan pengerusi suruhanjaya pilihan raya tidak boleh digunakan dalam keadaan semasa. Kerana itu bukan atau tiada penyelidikan komprehensif yang betul dilakukan. Di Sarawak terdapat sekolah yang terletak di tebing sungai di sepanjang sungai Rejang dan Baram. Pasukan kerja SPR akan diterbangkan ke pusat mengundi dan mereka sudah merasai kesannya.

Bekas Ahli Parlimen Klang Charles Santiago membawa kes ke mahkamah bagi menghalang Suruhanjaya Pilihan Raya (SPR) daripada menjalankan pilihan raya umum ke-15 (PRU15) kerana Ismail Sabri Yaakob, sebagai perdana menteri “caretaker”, dikatakan telah melanggar peruntukan dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan.
Santiago, yang memfailkan saman pemula di Mahkamah Tinggi di sini semalam, menamakan Ismail, kerajaan dan SPR sebagai responden.
Beliau mahukan deklarasi bahawa permintaan Ismail kepada Yang di-Pertuan Agong supaya Parlimen dibubarkan bercanggah dengan Perkara 40(1) dan (1A) Perlembagaan Persekutuan.
Santiago juga memohon suatu perintah dikeluarkan Mahkamah Tinggi untuk menghalang SPR dan ejen, pengkhidmat dan/atau pekerjanya daripada mengambil sebarang langkah untuk mengadakan PRU.

Charles Santiago, Ex-Klang MP – IS SEEKING A COURT ORDER TO STOP THE GE15 FROM TAKING PLACE THIS YEAR
Charles Santiago is seeking a court order to stop the 15th general election (GE15) from taking place this year.
In an originating summons filed at the Kuala Lumpur High Court yesterday, he named caretaker prime minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob, the government, and the Election Commission (EC) as respondents.
In the filing, Charles is seeking a declaration that Ismail Sabri's request to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to dissolve Parliament was in contravention of Articles 40(1) and (1A) of the Federal Constitution.
According to Charles, the request (to dissolve Parliament) was not made on the advice of the cabinet, and is, therefore, null and void.
He had earlier sent a letter to Chairman and also Election Commissioner. The letter was to seek their views and their preparations or plan in how to run election during flood season. The said letter was not acknowledged and also no response.
So he sent out a second letter for follow up. To say that this issue is important since parliament has been disolved and election will take place soon. We must inform the people what are the preparations or plans.</itunes:summary>

Thomas Fann, pengerusi Bersih 2.0 – TEMA PRU15 ADALAH UNDIBANJIR, MESTI KELUAR MENGUNDI
Parlimen dan Dewan Undangan Negeri telah dibubarkan, oleh itu pilihan raya umum mesti dilakukan dalam tempoh 60 hari mulai 10 Okt 2022.
Terdapat beberapa kesan. Pertama, masalah bagi pengundi yang tinggal di kawasan banjir, seperti di Sarawak dan Sabah kini menghadapi banjir di beberapa kawasan. Serta kawasan di sepanjang pantai timur di Malaysia Barat.
Dengan krisis iklim, di mana kawasan yang tidak pernah mengalami banjir, kini menjadi kawasan probd banjir, seperti Selangor. Dan ini akan menyumbang kepada penurunan peratusan keluar pengundi.
Kedua di mana beberapa sekolah akan dijadikan pusat mangsa banjir dan boleh menyebabkan aktiviti pengundian ditangguhkan. Dan akan menanggung kos. Jadi tidak masuk akal untuk membubarkan parlimen sekarang. Tetapi inilah yang diinginkan oleh parti tertentu untuk mengadakan pilihan raya sekarang, kerana mereka percaya bahawa ini adalah peluang yang baik untuk memenangi pilihan raya.

With climate crisis, where areas that never experience flood, now are flood probd areas, such as Selangor. And this will contribute to decrease in voters turn out percentage.
Secondly where some schools will be used as centre for flood victims and may cause postponement of the polling activities. And will incur cost. So it is ridiculous to dissolve parliament now.

[Laporan dari pusat media PKR] Hary Wing Miku, ketua komunikasi PKR Sarawak dengan Iswardy Morni, PKR Petrajaya – HANYA MENGADU DAN TIDAK MENGUNDI, ANDA TIDAK BOLEH MENGUBAH. KELUAR DAN UNDI!
Bajet 2023 tak guna. Selepas pilihan raya, akan ada perubahan 100%. Sama ada UMNO atau PH kerajaan, bajet akan diwujudkan semula mengikut keadaan ketika itu.
UMNO dah kata kalau nak bajet2023 ini dilaksanakan, undilah UMNO. Ini adalah cara biasa mereka bermain politik.
Berdasarkan pemerhatian, tidak sepatutnya ada kemenangan besar bagi mana-mana pihak, mungkin ada pakatan yang berbeza. Pada masa ini, PH nampaknya mendahului trend tersebut, tetapi persoalannya, adakah pengundi akan turun mengundi? Jika peratusan keluar mengundi kurang daripada 70%, maka PH dalam bahaya.
UMNO berjudi. Kajian mereka menunjukkan peratusan keluar mengundi lebih rendah semasa banjir semasa musim tengkujuh, dan kedua, rasa tidak puas hati di kalangan kumpulan Melayu semakin meningkat, dan semakin lama kelewatan, semakin tinggi rasa tidak puas hati.
Kita sekarang memarahi kerajaan dan menuduh Bajet tidak memberi manfaat kepada rakyat. Jika kita tidak keluar mengundi, tuduhan ini tidak akan sah. Tidak kira di mana anda berada, undi dan jangan sia-siakan undi anda.

[Report from PKR media center] Hary Wing Miku, head of communication PKR Sarawak with Iswardy Morni, PKR Petrajaya – JUST COMPLAIN AND DON’T VOTE, YOU CAN’T CHANGE THE STATUS QUO. COME OUT AND VOTE!
Budget 2023 is useless. After the election, there will be a 100% change. Whether UMNO or PH is the government, the budget will be re-established according to the situation at that time.
UMNO has said that if you want this budget2023 to be implemented, vote for UMNO. This is their usual way of playing politics.
Based on observations, there shouldn't be a big win for either side, there could be a different alliance. At present, PH seems to be leading the trend, but the question is, will voters go to the polls? If the turnout is less than 70%, then PH is in danger.
UMNO is gambling. Their research shows that voter turnout is lower during flooding during the monsoons, and secondly, dissatisfaction among Malay groups is rising, and the longer the delay, the higher the dissatisfaction.
We are now scolding the government and accusing Budget of not benefiting the people. If we don’t come out and vote, these accusations will not be valid. No matter where you are, vote and don't waste your vote.</itunes:summary>

Iswardi Morni, aktivis peguam dari Sarawak – PILIHANRAYA DIADAKAN PADA NOV? ADAKAH AGONG BERSETUJU?
Adakah Najib akan dibenarkan untuk berbahas di parlimen dalam sesi parlimen oktober ini?. Menurut Iswardi- speaker Parlimen telah menyatakan bahawa status Najib kekal ahli parlimen yang sah sehingga petisyen pengampunan selesai. Namun adakah menteri dalam negeri dan Jabatan penjara Malaysia akan membenarkannya. Maka jawapannya akan kita ketahui pada 3 oct ini. Tidak ada duluan untuk menjadi rujukan kepada keadaan yang dihadapi Najib.
Iswardi berpendapat 2 halangan bagi keputusan itu dilaksanakan. Pertama , malaysia bakal dilanda banjir. Jika banjir yang melanda amat teruk dan membawa banyak kerosakan/kerugian. Bagaimana persiapan dan proses pilihanraya diadakan?. Kedua, adakah Agong akan mempersetujui pilihanraya diadakan pada masa yang memberi risiko kepada rakyat.? 
Iswardi tetap percaya hanya ada 2 parti besar yang dominan ketika ini. Iaitu PH dan UMNO/BN. Mana-mana parti yang membuat gabungan dan kerjasama pada saat-saat akhir kemungkinan besar akan gagal mendapat kepercayaan pengundi.

Iswardi Morni, lawyer activist from Sarawak – ELECTION HELD IN NOV? WILL THE AGONG AGREE?
Will Najib be allowed to debate in parliament in this October parliamentary session? According to Iswardi, the speaker of Parliament has stated that Najib's status remains a valid member of parliament until the pardon petition is completed. But will the interior minister and the Malaysian prisons department allow it. Then we will know the answer on this 3rd of oct. There is no precedent to be a reference to the situation Najib is facing.
Iswardi thinks there are 2 obstacles for the decision to be implemented. First, Malaysia will be hit by floods. If the flood that hits is very severe and brings a lot of damage/loss. How is the preparation and election process held?. Second, will the Agong agree to the election being held at a time that poses a risk to the people?
Iswardi still believes that there are only 2 major parties that are dominant at the moment. That is PH and UMNO/BN. Any party that makes coalitions and collaborations at the last minute will most likely fail to gain the trust of voters.</itunes:summary>

Chiew Choon Man, Ketua PKR Sarawak – FOKUS KEPADA MANGSA BANJIR BUKAN PILIHANRAYA UMUM
Chiew berpendapat tiada keperluan untuk melaksanakan PRU15 dalam tahun ini, Zahid menafikan monsun akhir tahun adalah mitos dan alasan pembangkang mengelak PRU15 tahun ini adalah tidak menghormati permohonan daripada meteorologi.
Semua pihak harus fokus kepada bencana banjir atau mengurangkan kesan bencana ini. Kerana jika PRU dilakukan semasa banjir, maka tumpuan hanya kepada PRU dan bukan kepada mangsa banjir.
Zahid menuduh pembangkang mengelak pilihan raya umum tahun ini sedangkan ramalan bukan daripada pembangkang tetapi dari Pusat Penyelidikan Cuaca bahawa musim tengkujuh akhir tahun akan tiba. Hanya Zahid dan UMNO nampaknya terdesak untuk mengadakan pilihan raya umum secepat mungkin tahun ini tanpa mengira kepentingan rakyat.
Semua pihak harus fokus bukan PRU tetapi menyelesaikan masalah ekonomi negara, masalah rakyat dan mengelak banjir.
Tidak dinafikan jika UMNO memenangi pilihan raya umum tahun ini, maka memang menjadi agenda Zahid untuk menyingkirkan dirinya dan sekutu rasuah mereka jika mereka kembali berkuasa.

Chiew Choon Man, Chief of Sarawak PKR – FOCUS ON FLODD VICTIMS, NOT THE GENERAL ELECTION
Chiew thinks there is no need to carry out GE15 this year, Zahid denies the end-of-year monsoon is a myth and the opposition's reason for avoiding GE15 this year is disrespecting the application from meteorology.
All parties should focus on the flood disaster or reduce the impact of this disaster. Because if the GE is done during the flood, then the focus is only on the GE and not on the flood victims.
Zahid accused the opposition of avoiding this year's general election while the forecast was not from the opposition but from the Weather Research Center that the end of the year monsoon season would arrive. Only Zahid and UMNO seem desperate to have the general election as soon as possible this year regardless of the interests of the people.
All parties should focus on is not the GE but solving the country's economic problems, the people's problems and avoiding floods.
There is no denying that if UMNO wins the general election this year, then it is indeed Zahid's agenda to get rid of himself and their corrupt allies if they come back to power.</itunes:summary>

Fahmi Zainol, Pengarah Sukarelawan PKR – ZAHID BERKESESAKAN PILIHANRAYA YANG DIADAKAN HUJUNG TAHUN KERANA GILA KUASA
Mengenai pilihanraya hujung tahun, memang nampak Zahid gila dengan kuasa, bukan untuk kesejahteraan rakyat. Tanyalah pakar, atau sesiapa yang tahu, biasalah hujung tahun adalah musim tengkujuh.
Tetapi jelas sekali, mereka semua buta dan hanya gila kuasa.
Ahli Majlis Tertinggi UMNO Datuk Puad Zarkashi menggelar Rafizi Ramli sebagai "munafik" kerana berkempen menggunakan lori 'Ayuh Malaysia' walaupun berdepan risiko banjir. Menurut Fahmi Zainol, ikut amalan biasa, pilihan raya umum diadakan setiap lima tahun, dan setiap kali PKR/PH membuat persiapan lebih awal untuk aktiviti pra-pilihan raya, yang merupakan perkiraan biasa. Kali ini, mungkin seawal tahun hadapan, malah hujung tahun ini, yang tidak dijangka.
Kerana setiap kali tidak tahu bila parlimen akan dibubarkan, pasukan kempen PKR/PH membuat persediaan awal, tetapi tidak untuk pilihan raya umum hujung tahun, kerana kita tidak bersetuju dengan pilihan raya pada musim hujan

[TOP STORY]
Fahmi Zainol, PKR Director of Volunteer – ZAHID INSIST ON THE ELECTION HELD AT THE END OF THE YEAR BECAUSE CRAZY ABOUT POWER
Regarding the election at the end of the year, it is obvious that Zahid etc are for power, not people's well-being. Ask an expert, or anyone who knows, it is common sense that the end of the year is the monsoon season.
But obviously, they are all blind and only crazy about power.
UMNO highest councilor Datuk Puad Zarkashi called Rafizi Ramli a "hypocrite" for campaigning using a 'Ayuh Malaysia' truck despite the risk of flooding. According to Fahmi Zainol, follow to the usual practice, general elections are held every five years, and each time PKR/PH prepares for pre-election activities in advance, which is an ordinary arrangement. This time, it may be as early as next year, or even the end of this year, which is unexpected.
Because every time we don't know when the parliament will be dissolved, the PKR/PH campaign team prepares in advance, but not for the general election at the end of the year, because we do not agree with the election during the rainy season at the end of the year.</itunes:summary>

Because every time we don't know when the parliament will be dissolved, the PKR/PH campaign team prepares in advance, but not for the general election at the end of the year, because we do not agree with the election during the rainy season at the end of the year.</description>

Iswardi Morni, aktivis peguam dari Sarawak – PASUKAN PENDAKWA YANG SAMA - MENGENDALIKAN PENDAKWAAN KES YAYASAN AKAL BUDI, JUGA MELIBATKAN KES RASUAH DAN PENYELEWENGAN KUASA MELIBATKAN ZAHID HAMIDI
Media melaporkan bahawa peguam negara Idrus Harun mengesahkan bahawa pihak pendakwaan membuat rayuan atas keputusan mahkamah tinggi yang melepaskan dan membebaskan Zahid Hamidi atas 40 pertuduhan menerima rasuah jutaan ringgit daripada UKSB melalui sistem Visa Luar Negara.
Iswardi berpendapat ia adalah langkah yang wajar, namun keupayaan pihak pendakwaan dalam rayuan ini tidak boleh mengemukakan bukti baru. Bukti-bukti yang dinyatakan sebelum ini agak lemah hingga menyebabkan hakim membuat keputusan yang memihak kepada Zahid Hamidi. Ditanya adakah mungkin pihak pendakwaraya dirasuah atau ditekan oleh pihak-pihak tertentu. Saya tak dapat beri komen tentang itu. Namun dalam kes ini pihak pendakwaan nampak kurang bersedia dan kurang pengalaman. Satu lagi yang merisaukan saya kerana pasukan pendakwaan yang sama- mengendalikan kes pendakwaan Kes Yayasan Akal Budi, juga membabitkan kes rasuah dan salah guna kuasa membabitkan Zahid Hamidi.

Iswardi Morni, lawyer activist from Sarawak – THE SAME PROSECUTION TEAM - HANDLING THE PROSECUTION OF THE YAYASAN AKAL BUDI CASE, ALSO INVOLVES THE CASE OF CORRUPTION AND ABUSE OF POWER INVOLVING ZAHID HAMIDI 
The media reported that attorney general Idrus Harun confirmed that the prosecution appealed against the high court's decision to release and acquit Zahid Hamidi on 40 charges of receiving millions of ringgit in bribes from UKSB through the Overseas Visa system.
Iswardi thinks it is a reasonable step, but the ability of the prosecution in this appeal cannot present new evidence. The evidence mentioned earlier was quite weak to the point that the judge made a decision in favor of Zahid Hamidi. Asked if it was possible for the prosecutor to be bribed or pressured by certain parties. He said can't comment on that. But in this case, the prosecution seems to be less prepared and less experienced. Another thing that worries me is because the same prosecution team - handling the prosecution of the Yayasan Akal Budi Case, also involves the case of corruption and abuse of power involving Zahid Hamidi.</itunes:summary>

Oscar Ling, Ahli Parlimen DAP Sibu dan pengarah kempen PRU15 – PN TIDAK PERNAH MENARIK SOKONGAN ISMAIL, KERANA PN BN ADALAH SAMA RASUAH DAN KRONISME
Muhyiddin berkata pada PRU akan datang, BN adalah musuh paling teruk untuk PN, kerana mereka ada sokongan pengundi yang sama. BN dan PN adalah sama - konservatif. Mereka tidak mahu berubah; mereka hanya mahukan negara yang berkepentingan sendiri. PN juga ramai dari BN termasuk Ismail, mereka konservatif sama, mahukan kroni dan rasuah.
PH progresif dan kita mahu berubah. Kita mahu memerangi rasuah, kita perlu memulihkan demokrasi, inilah yang PH selalu kejar. kita tidak mahu politik lama. Inilah beza PH vs BN PN.
PH tidak kemaruk kuasa, tetapi pastikan anda menyemak dan mengimbangi. PH boleh jadi pembangkang untuk memantau negara, tetapi BN dan PN tidak boleh.
PSB juga berasal dari BN. Mereka politik lama. Kami mencadangkan agar perdana menteri tidak berkhidmat lebih daripada dua penggal, tetapi PSB-Wong Son Koh tidak bersetuju.
Taib mahmud telah memerintah Sarawak 32 tahun, ini tidak sihat, Salah guna kuasa dan rasuah

Muhyiddin said on coming GE, BN was PN's worst enemy, it is because they have same voter support. BN and PN are the same - conservative. They don't want to change; they just want a country that is in their own interests. PN is also a lot of people from BN, including Ismail, they are same conservative, wants cronies and corruption.
PH is progressive and we want to change. We want fight corruption, we have to restore democracy, these are what PH has always been after. we don't want the old political. This is the difference between PH vs BN PN.
PH not hunger for power, but make sure to check and balance. PH can be opposition to monitor the country, but BN and PN cant be.
PSB is also derived from BN. They are old politic. We suggested that the premier should not serve more than two terms, but PSB-Wong Son Koh disagreed.

Iswardy Morni, Aktivis Peguam Sarawak – GLC, PENDERITAAN RAKYAT VS KEKAYAAN KRONI
Syarikat besar tidak boleh dikaitkan dengan kerajaan, mereka mesti pasaran bebas. Tetapi di Malaysia, GLC seperti May Bank, Felda, Tabung Haji, Telekom, KTM berhad, dan lain-lain, kerajaan ada saham emas, maknanya ada menteri atau YB di dalamnya, dan kroni yang diatur oleh kerajaan ada di dalamnya.
Kalau GLC ni buat duit, kroni buat duit, tapi kalau rugi, kerajaan kena tanggung, dan rakyat bayar harganya.
Mengambil contoh Hospital Sarawak Petra Jaya, ia pada asalnya diberikan kepada Zecon Bhd, pemaju perumahan, tetapi tidak mempunyai pengalaman membina hospital. Akibatnya, ia ditangguhkan selama bertahun-tahun, dan tidak dapat disiapkan. Ia telah dipecat dan pemaju lain telah diupah untuk membinanya. Kerja tertunda sehingga 2024. Ini adalah tipikal orang yang tidak berpengalaman dalam jawatan penting.
Di Sarawak, 99% perusahaan berskala besar adalah berkaitan dengan kerajaan, dan mereka mempunyai kroni dan saudara di dalamnya. Hasilnya, anda boleh lihat, adakah Sarawak telah mencapai pembangunan?
Ekonomi pasaran bebas ialah ekonomi tanpa campur tangan atau peraturan kerajaan. Untuk mengurangkan rasuah, GLC mesti ditamatkan. GLC lantik politik rasuah dan ganjaran kepada kroni, harap PH boleh hapuskan jika menang.

Iswardy Morni, Lawyer Activist from Sarawak – GLC, THE SUFFERING OF THE PEOPLE VS THE WEALTH OF THE CRONIES
Large companies cannot be linked to the government, they must be free markets. But in Malaysia, GLCs such as May Bank, Felda, Tabung Haji, Telekom, KTM berhad, etc, the government has golden shares, which means that there are ministers or YBs in it, and cronies arranged by the government are in it.
If these GLCs make money, cronies make money, but if they lose money, the government must bear it, and the people pay the price.
Taking Sarawak Hospital Petra Jaya as an example, it was originally given to Zecon Bhd, a housing developer, but had no experience in building a hospital. As a result, it was delayed for many years, and it was finally unable to complete. It was fired and another developer was hired to build it. Delayed work until 2024. This is typical, inexperienced people in important positions.
In Sarawak, 99% of large-scale enterprises are related to the government, and they have cronies and relatives in them. As a result, you can see, have Sarawak achieved development?
A free-market economy is one without government intervention or regulation. To reduce corruption, the GLC must end. The GLC appoints corrupt politics and rewards to cronies, hope PH can eliminate it if they win.</itunes:summary>

[BERITA UTAMA]
Dr. Lee Boon Che, Mantan timbalan menteri Kesihatan Malaysia – RAWATAN UNTUK NAJIB MESTI TELUS
Lee memberi respon kepada berita yang menyatakan bahawa banduan Najib Razak sekarang telah dipindahkan dari HKL ke Hospital Rehabilitasi Cheras (HRC). Lee berpendapatan ia harus ada alasan medical yang jelas. Mesti berasaskan rekemendasi doktor pakar yang merawat Najib. Kalau ia dilakukan hanya dengan alasan remeh. Dikhuatiri HRC akan dibanjiri ramai banduan.
Dalam aspek ini ketelusan dan tahap profesionalisme semua pihak dituntut. Doktor yang merawat Najib tidak boleh membocorkan maklumat kesihatan pesakitnya. Kerahsiaan maklumat pesakit adalah hak asas semua kita. Namun dalam aspek ini. Bagi mengelak maklumat palsu dan berita tidak benar. Najib dan keluarganya boleh memberi penjelasan kepada umum apa jenis rawatan dan sakit yang dialami oleh Najib. Ini bagi mempastikan tidak ada salah guna fasiliti Kementerian Kesihatan. Atau- menurut Lee. Najib boleh mengarahkan doktor yang merawatnya memberi maklumat yang berpatutan kepada orang awam.

Dr. Lee Boon Che, Former deputy minister of Health Malaysia – THE TREATMENT FOR NAJIB MUST TRANSPARENCY
Lee responded to the news that Najib Razak's current prisoner has been transferred from HKL to the Cheras Rehabilitation Hospital (HRC). Lee believes that there must be a clear medical reason. Must be based on the recommendation of the specialist doctor who treated Najib. If it is done only for trivial reasons. It is feared that the HRC will be flooded with many prisoners.
In this aspect, transparency and the level of professionalism of all parties are demanded. The doctor treating Najib cannot divulge his patient's health information. Confidentiality of patient information is a fundamental right of all of us. But in this aspect. To avoid false information and false news. Najib and his family can explain to the public what kind of treatment and illness Najib is experiencing. This is to ensure that there is no misuse of Ministry of Health facilities. Or- according to Lee. Najib can order the doctor who treated him to give reasonable information to the public. This was done by the doctor who treated the President of America - Joe Biden, when he was being treated for covid19.</itunes:summary>

Dr. Lee Boon Che, Mantan timbalan menteri Kesihatan Malaysia – RAWATAN UNTUK NAJIB MESTI TELUS
Lee memberi respon kepada berita yang menyatakan bahawa banduan Najib Razak sekarang telah dipindahkan dari HKL ke Hospital Rehabilitasi Cheras (HRC). Lee berpendapatan ia harus ada alasan medical yang jelas. Mesti berasaskan rekemendasi doktor pakar yang merawat Najib. Kalau ia dilakukan hanya dengan alasan remeh. Dikhuatiri HRC akan dibanjiri ramai banduan.
Dalam aspek ini ketelusan dan tahap profesionalisme semua pihak dituntut. Doktor yang merawat Najib tidak boleh membocorkan maklumat kesihatan pesakitnya. Kerahsiaan maklumat pesakit adalah hak asas semua kita. Namun dalam aspek ini. Bagi mengelak maklumat palsu dan berita tidak benar. Najib dan keluarganya boleh memberi penjelasan kepada umum apa jenis rawatan dan sakit yang dialami oleh Najib. Ini bagi mempastikan tidak ada salah guna fasiliti Kementerian Kesihatan. Atau- menurut Lee. Najib boleh mengarahkan doktor yang merawatnya memberi maklumat yang berpatutan kepada orang awam. Ini dilakukan oleh doktor yang merawat President Amarika- Joe Biden, ketika mendapat rawatan covid19.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Zunar, Politik Kartunis – PM TETEPKAN TARIKH PILIHAN RAYA? IA TERLALU DIKTATOR DAN KUNO
Kuasa menentukan tarikh pilihanraya oleh hanya perdana menteri adalah satu sikap diktator dan kuno. Banyak negara telah menetapkan tarikh pilihanraya di negara mereka bagi memudahkan parti-parti politik membuat persiapan dan memudahkan pergerakan rakyat yang akan mengambil bahagian (contohnya indonesia menetapkan tahun 2024 untuk mengadakan pilihanraya umum). Namun di Malaysia perdana menteri masih tidak mampu berterus terang kepada rakyat mengenai tarikh pilihanraya. Ini menjadikan produktiviti rakyat dan negara menurun.
Desakan UMNO/BN supaya diadakan pilihanraya segera , walaupun ketika banjir adalah perbuatan amat tidak bertanggungjawab. Jika benar ini akan berlaku?. Ia dilakukan semata-mata untuk menyelamatkan UMNO/BN dan Najib Razak dan para pemimpin  UMNO yang sedang dibicarakan kerana kesalahan rasuah dan salah guna kuasa. Sistem lama cegah rasuah masih sama. Siapa menyokong kerajaan UMNO/BN. Dia akan dibebaskan daripada tuduhan rasuah dan salah guna kuasa. Adakah rakyat masih membenarkan ini berlaku?.
Bagaimana nak pilih siapa yang perlu diundi. Kata Zunar pilihlah kesihatan dan keselamatan poket anda sendiri. Pilihlah ekonomi  keluarga anda sendiri. Tanya diri sendiri. Adakah ekonomi dan pendapatan keluarga anda semakin meningkat?. Kalau jawapannya tidak. Inilah masanya kita semua tukar parti yang memerintah. Menurut Zunar ekonomi Malaysia semakin parah kerana rasuah yang semakin tidak terkawal.Zunar memuji pentadbiran PH. Walaupun hanya 22 bulan tetapi menampakkan kesan positif yang jauh lebih memberansangkan berbanding pentadbiran UMNO BN selama 60 tahun .


[TOP STORY]
Zunar, Political Cartoonist – PM TO SET THE ELECTION DATE? IT IS TOO DICTORIAL AND ANTIQUOTED
The power to set the election date by the prime minister alone is dictatorial and antiquated. Many countries have set election dates in their countries to make it easier for political parties to make preparations and facilitate the movement of people who will participate (for example, Indonesia set the year 2024 to hold general elections). But in Malaysia the prime minister is still unable to be honest with the people about the election date. This makes the productivity of the people and the country decrease.
UMNO/BN's insistence that an election be held immediately, even when there is a flood, is a very irresponsible act. If true this will happen? It was done solely to save UMNO/BN and Najib Razak and the UMNO leaders who are being tried for corruption and abuse of power. The old anti-corruption system is still the same. Who supports the UMNO/BN government. He will be acquitted of corruption and abuse of power charges. Do the people still allow this to happen?
How to choose who to vote for. Zunar said choose the health and safety of your own pocket. Choose your own family economy. Ask yourself. Is your family's economy and income increasing? If the answer is no. This is the time we all change the ruling party. According to Zunar, Malaysia's economy is getting worse because of corruption that is getting out of control. Zunar praised the PH administration. Even though it was only 22 months, it showed a positive effect that was far more impressive than the UMNO BN administration for 60 years.</itunes:summary>

Menurut laporan, setiap tahun purata 20,000 orang menjadi mangsa penipuan dan lebih RM660 juta dicuri oleh penipu ini.
Mencadangkan kerajaan mewujudkan pusat bantuan sehenti untuk penipu yang melibatkan agensi berkaitan termasuk SKMM, PDRM, BNM, ABM, AIBIM, Jabatan Peguam Negara, dan lain-lain sekurang-kurangnya tiga di Kuala Lumpur, Kota Kinabalu dan Kuching, serta anti multi penipu agensi secara fizikal yang berpangkalan di Bank Negara Malaysia;
wujudkan mekanisme pampasan seperti Dana Pemulihan yang sedang diusahakan oleh Monetary Authority of Singapore, supaya mangsa penipu yang disahkan akan menerima pampasan sebaik mungkin, serta meminda akta berkaitan, contohnya Akta Perbadanan Insurans Deposit Malaysia (Akta 642) supaya PIDM boleh menjamin atau menyediakan insurans dan pampasan bagi simpanan yang terjejas oleh jenayah penipu.

John Brian Anthony, Pengerusi Tetap Parti PBDSB – GAGASAN RAKYAT SARAWAK AKAN KUATKAN BARISAN PEMBANGKANG DI SARAWAK
John menjelaskan bahawa 3 buah parti local sarawak telah bersetuju membentuk gabungan yang dipanggil Gagasan Rakyat Sarawak. Terdiri daripada PBDSB, SEDAR dan Aspirasi.-Akan turut meletak calon dalam PRU15. Dua parti lagi yang turut dibawa bersama menyertai gabungan ini PSB dan PBK- namun buat masa ini kedua-dua parti dikatakan masih belum bersedia untuk turut serta.
John menjelaskan kesungguhan Gagasan Rakyat Sarawak bukan sahaja cuba untuk satu lawan satu menentang GPS malah turut sanggup berkongsi sumber, lambang malah naratif politik. Kami amat bersungguh-sungguh ingin menguatkan parti pembangkang di Sarawak. Dengan demikian kami akan berkerjasama dengan PH dan hanya akan meminta kerusi yang bukan kerusi terkuat mereka. Sikap ini dilihat berbeza dengan PSB yang meminta kerusi yang telah dimenangi DAP. John percaya PSB dipandu oleh tangan ghaib.Disebalik tindakan mereka.
Mengulas berkaitan isu 35% kerusi parlimen harus diberi kepada Sabah dan Sarawak. Beliau bersetuju kerana itu adalah tuntutan dalam Perjanjian Malaysia 1963. Ia ada tujuan khas untuk imbangan kuasa menerusi kebarangkalian pindaan perlembagaan. Maka ia adalah cadangan yang wajar, walaupun ia mungkin tidak mewakili jumlah populasi. Tetapi itu adalah hal yang berbeza dan tak harus menjadi isu dan perbandingan. Berkaitan kuasa veto untuk sabah dan Sarawak (melalui dewan negara) seperti dicadangkan oleh Peter John Jaban. Agak sukar kerana tiada peruntukan kuasa dalam perlembagaan membenarkan kuasa sedemikian. Maka option melalui 35% kerusi menerusi MA63 adalah wajar.

John explained that 3 local Sarawak parties have agreed to form a coalition called Gagasan Rakyat Sarawak. Composed of PBDSB, SEDAR and Aspirasi. Will also field candidates in GE15. Two other parties that were also brought together to join this coalition PSB and PBK - but for now both parties are said to be not yet ready to participate.
John explained the seriousness of the Sarawak People's Idea not only trying to fight GPS one on one but also willing to share resources, symbols and even political narratives. We really want to strengthen the opposition party in Sarawak. Thus we will cooperate with PH and will only ask for seats that are not their strongest seats. This attitude is seen as different from PSB's asking for seats that DAP won. John believes PSB is guided by an unseen hand. Behind their actions.
Commenting on the issue of 35% of parliamentary seats should be given to Sabah and Sarawak. He agreed because that was a demand in the Malaysia Agreement 1963. It had a special purpose for the balance of power through the possibility of constitutional amendment. So it is a reasonable suggestion, although it may not represent the total population. But that is a different matter and should not be an issue and comparison. Regarding the veto power for Sabah and Sarawak (through the national assembly) as proposed by Peter John Jaban. It is quite difficult because there is no provision of power in the constitution allowing such power. So the option through 35% of seats through MA63 is reasonable.</itunes:summary>

Nathaniel Tan, Perunding Komunikasi Strategik – JIKA NAJIB DIRAWAT KERANA SAKIT, DAN BANDUAN LAIN JUGA PERLU ADA RAWATAN YANG SAMA
Pada Julai 2007, Nathaniel menjadi tumpuan apabila dia ditahan oleh Polis kerana didakwa melanggar Akta Rahsia Rasmi. 
Katanya, beliau tidak boleh mengulas sama ada benar Najib berada dalam persekitaran yang baik, tetapi beliau berharap semua penjenayah mendapat perhatian sama seperti Najib. Dia telah ditangkap dan dipenjarakan, jadi dia tahu apa yang berlaku di dalam penjara. Beliau berkata, persekitaran penjara tidak baik, dan sering berlaku kes keganasan untuk ditangani.
Beliau berkata sekiranya Najib memerlukan rawatan perubatan kerana sakit, beliau perlu mendapatkan rawatan sewajarnya dan banduan lain perlu mendapatkan rawatan yang sama. Ini adalah proses yang mesti telus.

Nathaniel Tan, Strategic Communications Consultant – IF NAJIB IS BEING TREATED DUE TO ILLNESS, AND OTHER PRISONERS SHOULD BE TREATED THE SAME
In July 2007, Nathaniel came under the spotlight when he was detained by the Police for allegedly violating the Official Secrets Act. 
He said he could not comment on whether it was true that Najib was in a good environment, but he hoped all criminals would get attention like Najib. He has been arrested and jailed, so he knows what's going on inside the prison. He said that the prison environment is not good, and there are often cases of being beaten to deal with.
He said if Najib needed medical treatment due to illness, he had to get proper treatment and the other prisoners had to get the same treatment. This is a process that must be transparent.</itunes:summary>

Nathaniel Tan, Perunding Komunikasi Strategik – JIKA NAJIB DIRAWAT KERANA SAKIT, DAN BANDUAN LAIN JUGA PERLU ADA RAWATAN YANG SAMA
Pada Julai 2007, Nathaniel menjadi tumpuan apabila dia ditahan oleh Polis kerana didakwa melanggar Akta Rahsia Rasmi. 
Katanya, beliau tidak boleh mengulas sama ada benar Najib berada dalam persekitaran yang baik, tetapi beliau berharap semua penjenayah mendapat perhatian sama seperti Najib. Dia telah ditangkap dan dipenjarakan, jadi dia tahu apa yang berlaku di dalam penjara. Beliau berkata, persekitaran penjara tidak baik, dan sering berlaku kes keganasan untuk ditangani.
Beliau berkata sekiranya Najib memerlukan rawatan perubatan kerana sakit, beliau perlu mendapatkan rawatan sewajarnya dan banduan lain perlu mendapatkan rawatan yang sama. Ini adalah proses yang mesti telus.

Nathaniel Tan, Strategic Communications Consultant – IF NAJIB IS BEING TREATED DUE TO ILLNESS, AND OTHER PRISONERS SHOULD BE TREATED THE SAME
In July 2007, Nathaniel came under the spotlight when he was detained by the Police for allegedly violating the Official Secrets Act. 
He said he could not comment on whether it was true that Najib was in a good environment, but he hoped all criminals would get attention like Najib. He has been arrested and jailed, so he knows what's going on inside the prison. He said that the prison environment is not good, and there are often cases of being beaten to deal with.
He said if Najib needed medical treatment due to illness, he had to get proper treatment and the other prisoners had to get the same treatment. This is a process that must be transparent.</description>

Thomas Jalong, bekas Presiden JOAS – PERDAGANGAN CARBON BARAM? BAGAIMANA? DENGAN AMBIL TANAH ORANG ASAL?
Sarawak menyasarkan 2023 untuk memulakan perdagangan karbon sebagai sumber pendapatan baharu, Baram memberi manfaat paling banyak, kata Timbalan Menteri Tenaga dan Kelestarian Alam Sekitar Dr Hazland Abang Hipni.
Thomas mengulas bahawa, akan ada kesan terhadap hak adat masyarakat.
Menteri berkata bahawa kementerian dalam proses merangka peraturan mengenai perdagangan karbon, persoalan kita ialah: Adakah mereka akan melibatkan pelbagai pihak berkepentingan dalam menggubal dasar karbon dan peraturan?
Mereka yang mempunyai tanah besar boleh mendaftar dengan kerajaan negeri dan kami juga akan mengeluarkan lesen karbon, bermakna lebih banyak wang untuk syarikat besar, tetapi tiada untuk masyarakat yang tinggal di sana.
Kerajaan-kerajaan ini mestilah lengkap dan perlu dipertimbangkan dan dibincangkan oleh masyarakat setempat.

Sarawak targets 2023 to start emissions trading as new source of revenue, Baram to benefit most, said by Deputy Minister for Energy and Environmental Sustainability Dr Hazland Abang Hipni.
Thomas comments that, there will be an impact on the customary rights of the community and their livelihood.
Minister said that ministry in process drafting the regulations on carbon trading, our question is: Will they involve the various stakeholders in formulating the carbon policy and the regulations?
Those with big lands can register with the state government and we will also be issuing carbon licenses, it means that more money for the big companies, but nothing for the communities living there.
These governments must be complete and need to be considered and discussed by the local community.</itunes:summary>

Wong Chen, Pengarah Dasar Parti Keadilan Rakyat – PKR AKAN MELANCARKAN DASAR UNTUK RAKYAT DALAM FORMAT BARU UNTUK MENARIK MASYARAKAT MENGETAHUI LEBIH LANJUT
Menurut Wong Chen, tugas berat beliau selama ini adalah menjelaskan pelbagai dasar yang mungkin memerlukan penjelasan 40 hingga 50 muka suarat untuk sesuatu dasar. Namun dengan kaedah baru ini. Beliau dan pasukannya akan menghasilkan video pendek berdurasi 1 hingga 3 minit bagi menjelaskan dasar yang terkandung dalam dokumen yang tebal. Pihaknya akan cuba menjelaskan seringkas dan setepat mungkin dasar ekonomi, alam sekiatar, pengankutan dan sebagainya. Dalam masa 2 minggu lagi website fiqir.my akan dilancarkan. Disini semua pihak dapat menonton video pendek berkaitan dasar yang dipelopori PKR. Ini merupakan satu lagi kaedah mudah bagi PKR menarik sokongan rakyat untuk berpatisipasi dalam merangka dasar yang mesra rakyat.
Menjawab gesaan aktivis -bahawa Sabah dan sarawak lebih memerlukan kuasa veto daripada pertambahan 35% kerusi parlimen,untuk melindungi kepentingan Sabah/sarawak daripada dicerobohi oleh Malaya. Wong Chen bertegas bahawa semua pihak harus cuba sebaik mungkin memenuhi kehendak perjanjian itu. Namun beliau menyatakan isu itu telah dipolitikkan menjelang pru15. Supaya menarik sokongan pengundi Sabah dan Sarawak. Kerana menurut perlembagaan, persempadanan semula kawasan parlimen hanya boleh dibuat 8 tahun sekali dan hanya boleh dilakukan semula pada tahun 2026. Beliau tiada masalah untuk pertambahan kerusi parlimen untuk Sabah dan sarawak.

Wong Chen- People's Justice Party Policy Director – PKR WILL LAUNCH POLICIES FOR THE PEOPLE IN NEW FORMAT TO ATTRACT PEOPLE TO KNOW MORE
According to Wong Chen, his heavy duty all this time is to explain various policies that may require 40 to 50 pages of explanation for a certain policy. But with this new method. He and his team will produce short 1 to 3 minute videos to explain the policies contained in the thick document. He will try to explain briefly and as accurately as possible the economic policy, the environment, transportation and so on. In 2 weeks the fiqir.my website will be launched. Here all parties can watch a short video related to the policy pioneered by PKR. This is another easy method for PKR to attract the support of the people to participate in formulating policies that are friendly to the people.
Responding to activists' calls - that Sabah and Sarawak need veto power more than an increase of 35% of parliamentary seats, to protect the interests of Sabah/Sarawak from being invaded by Malaya. Wong Chen insisted that all parties should try their best to meet the requirements of the agreement. However, he stated that the issue had been politicized ahead of the 15th election. In order to attract the support of Sabah and Sarawak voters. Because according to the constitution, the redelimitation of parliamentary constituencies can only be done once every 8 years and can only be done again in 2026. He has no problem with the increase of parliamentary seats for Sabah and Sarawak.</itunes:summary>

[BERITA UTAMA]
Iswardy Morni, Aktivis Peguam dari Sarawak – GPS MUNGKIN ADA URUSAN RAHSIA DENGAN BN/UMNO?
Gabungan GPS yang memerintah Sarawak tidak tergesa-gesa untuk mempunyai 35% bahagian kerusi parlimen diperuntukkan kepada Malaysia Timur, kata pengerusi GPS Abang Johari Openg.
Ini berbalik kepada perjanjian MA63. Apabila Malaysia ditubuhkan, ia adalah untuk memastikan Sabah, Sarawak dan Singapura mempunyai lebih daripada 35% kerusi apabila mereka bergabung untuk mengelak daripada dieksploitasi. Tetapi selepas Singapura menarik diri, dan dengan pengurangan 15 kerusi, kerusi Malaysia Timur tidak bertambah sejak 1965.
Pertambahan 35% bilangan kerusi di Malaysia Timur sentiasa menjadi yang diperjuangkan PH selama ini.
Pada masa ini, Abang Jo memberitahu bahawa tidak ada keperluan mendesak untuk mendapatkan 35% kerusi. Kami ingin tahu, mengapa sikap sebegitu? Ini hak kita, dan hak kita perlu dilindungi. Bukankah ia mendesak sejak 1965? Ini adalah keutamaan untuk ditangani. Adakah Abang Jo ada agenda lain untuk berurusan secara persendirian dengan BN/UMNO? Kami tidak tahu, tetapi ia pelik.
Pada pendapat saya, jika kita akan mempertahankan MA63, GPS pastinya bukanlah satu pakatan parti yang boleh memperjuangkan hak rakyat.

Iswardy Morni, Lawyer activist from Sarawak – GPS MAYBE HAVE SECRET DEAL WITH BN/UMNO?
Sarawak’s ruling GPS coalition is in no hurry to have a 35% share of parliamentary seats allocated to East Malaysia, GPS chairman Abang Johari Openg said.
This goes back to the MA63 treaty. When Malaysia was formed, it was to ensure that Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore had more than 35% of the seats when they joined in order to avoid being exploited. But after Singapore withdrew, and with the reduction of 15 seats, the seats of East Malaysia have not increased since 1965.
The 35% increase in the number of seats in East Malaysia has always been what PH has been fighting for.
At this time, Abang Jo said that there is no urgent need to get 35% of the seats. We are curious, why is this attitude? This is our right, and our right needs to be protected. Isn't it urgent since 1965? This is a priority to deal with. Does Abang Jo have other agenda to deal privately with BN/UMNO? We don't know, but it's weird.
In my opinion, if we are going to defend MA63, GPS is definitely not an alliance of parties that can fight for the rights of the people.</itunes:summary>

Iswardi Morni, aktivis peguam dari Sarawak – BUKAN ISLAM AKAR RASUAH? KENYATAAN HADI CUBA UNTUK KEKALKAN KUASA UMNO/BN DAN PAS SEMASA PRU15
Iswardi memberi pandangan berkaitan polimik ucapan presiden Parti PAS Abdul Hadi Awang. Hadi dalam dua kenyataan berbeza menyatakan bahawa  - pemberi rasuah di Malaysia majoritinya adalah kaum Cina (bukan bumiputra) dan kenyataan kedua Hadi adalah- PH dikelilingi golongan pemberi Rasuah. Secara mudahnya Hadi ingin menunjukkan bahawa orang Cina buruk moralnya dan Melayu/bumiputra baik. Tetapi hadi tidak menyatakan sepenuhnya kebenaran/ hasil kajian tersebut. Menurut Iswardi kajian yang sama menyatakan 82% penerima rasuah adalah kaum Melayu/Bumiputra. Adakah maksudnya kaum melayu juga rendah moral? Isu Rasuah menurut iswardi tidak terikat oleh kaum atau bangsa. Ia berlaku merentas kaum dan bangsa. Tetapi dalam kes Malaysia ia bercorak sedemikian kerana sistem pentadbiran didominasi oleh bangsa melayu dan kegiatan perniagaan didominasi oleh bangsa cina. Oleh kerana teruknya rasuah di Malaysia sehingga setiap perniagaan harus melibatkan wang rasuah. Ia juga didorong oleh penguasaan politik yang terlalu lama oleh hanya sebuah parti pemerintah (UMNO/BN) Hadi cuba mengurangkan kerosakan terhadap UMNO dengan menyatakan bahawa PH dikelilingi oleh Perasuah, yakni PH disokong oleh majoriti orang Cina dan India. Rumusan dan pandangan Hadi ini terlalu resis dan amat terdesak untuk mendapat sokongan bagi partinya dan UMNO/BN. Hadi berharap supaya orang Melayu dan Bumiputra tidak menyokong PH. Hanya itu cara untuk UMNO/BN dan PAS kekal berkuasa menjelang PRU15.

Iswardi Morni, lawyer activist from Sarawak – NON-MUSLIMS THE ROOT OF CORRUPTION? HADI’S STATEMENT IS TRYING TO REMAIN UMNO/BN AND PAS POWER AHEAD OF GE15
Iswardi gave his views on the polemics of PAS Party president Abdul Hadi Awang's speech. Hadi in two different statements stated that - the majority of bribe givers in Malaysia are Chinese (not bumiputra) and Hadi's second statement was - PH is surrounded by bribe givers. Simply put, Hadi wants to show that the Chinese are morally bad and the Malays/bumiputras are good. But hadi did not fully state the truth/results of the study. According to Iswardi, the same study states that 82% of bribe recipients are Malays/Bumiputras. Does it mean that the Malays are also morally low? According to Iswardi, the issue of corruption is not bound by race or nation. It happens across race and nation. But in the case of Malaysia it is shaped like this because the administrative system is dominated by the Malay race and business activities are dominated by the Chinese race. Due to the severity of corruption in Malaysia, every business must involve bribe money. It is also driven by political dominance for too long by only one ruling party (UMNO/BN) Hadi tried to reduce the damage to UMNO by stating that PH is surrounded by Corrupt, ie PH is supported by the majority of Chinese and Indians. Hadi's formulation and views are too radical and he is desperate to get support for his party and UMNO/BN. Hadi hopes that Malays and Bumiputras will not support PH. That is the only way for UMNO/BN and PAS to remain in power ahead of GE15.</itunes:summary>

Tetapi dalam kes Malaysia ia bercorak sedemikian kerana sistem pentadbiran didominasi oleh bangsa melayu dan kegiatan perniagaan didominasi oleh bangsa cina. Oleh kerana teruknya rasuah di Malaysia sehingga setiap perniagaan harus melibatkan wang rasuah. Ia juga didorong oleh penguasaan politik yang terlalu lama oleh hanya sebuah parti pemerintah (UMNO/BN) Hadi cuba mengurangkan kerosakan terhadap UMNO dengan menyatakan bahawa PH dikelilingi oleh Perasuah, yakni PH disokong oleh majoriti orang Cina dan India. Rumusan dan pandangan Hadi ini terlalu resis dan amat terdesak untuk mendapat sokongan bagi partinya dan UMNO/BN. Hadi berharap supaya orang Melayu dan Bumiputra tidak menyokong PH. Hanya itu cara untuk UMNO/BN dan PAS kekal berkuasa menjelang PRU15.

Iswardi Morni, lawyer activist from Sarawak – NON-MUSLIMS THE ROOT OF CORRUPTION? HADI’S STATEMENT IS TRYING TO REMAIN UMNO/BN AND PAS POWER AHEAD OF GE15
Iswardi gave his views on the polemics of PAS Party president Abdul Hadi Awang's speech. Hadi in two different statements stated that - the majority of bribe givers in Malaysia are Chinese (not bumiputra) and Hadi's second statement was - PH is surrounded by bribe givers. Simply put, Hadi wants to show that the Chinese are morally bad and the Malays/bumiputras are good. But hadi did not fully state the truth/results of the study. According to Iswardi, the same study states that 82% of bribe recipients are Malays/Bumiputras. Does it mean that the Malays are also morally low? According to Iswardi, the issue of corruption is not bound by race or nation. It happens across race and nation. But in the case of Malaysia it is shaped like this because the administrative system is dominated by the Malay race and business activities are dominated by the Chinese race. Due to the severity of corruption in Malaysia, every business must involve bribe money. It is also driven by political dominance for too long by only one ruling party (UMNO/BN) Hadi tried to reduce the damage to UMNO by stating that PH is surrounded by Corrupt, ie PH is supported by the majority of Chinese and Indians. Hadi's formulation and views are too radical and he is desperate to get support for his party and UMNO/BN. Hadi hopes that Malays and Bumiputras will not support PH. That is the only way for UMNO/BN and PAS to remain in power ahead of GE15.</description>

Dennis Along aktivis tanah adat – ORANG MULU TELAH MENANG DALAM KES PENCEROBOHAN TANAH NCR DALAM KAWASAN TAMAN NEGARA MULU MENENTANG RADIANT LAGOON SDN BHD &amp; KERAJAAN NEGERI SARAWAK, TETAPI ADUN MULU MENAFIKAN KEMENANGAN RAKYAT
Dennis melaporkan bahawa pihaknya telah menang dalam kes pencerobohan tanah NCR dalam kawasan Taman Negara Mulu menentang Radiant Lagoon sdn.bhd &amp; Kerajaan negeri Sarawak. Dalam penyelesaian di luar mahkamah pihak Radiant Lagoon menarik diri dari mengusahakan tanah seluas 4400 hentar untuk tanaman kelapa sawit di gunung Mulu- milik kaum Berawan, Tering dan Penan. Dennis dan rakan-rakan pada tahun 2017 telah beberapa kali menghalau syarikat terbabit daripada menceroboh hutan dan menanam kelapa sawit di situ. Kemuncaknya kes itu dibawa ke mahkamah. Peguam See Chee How mewakili Dennis dan rakan-rakan. Pada bulan julai yang lalu syarikat terbabit keluar daripada tanah yang menjadi pertikaian. Walau bagaimanapun pihak Dennis masih menuntut gantirugi kerosakan alam sekitar akibat perbuatan rakus syarikat terbabit. Iaitu menuntut gantirugi kerosakan tanah seluas 500 hektar yang telah dijadikan tapak pembiakan anak benih kelapa sawit. Penebangan lebih 3000 batang kayu balak yang ditebang dan pampasan tanah perkuburan yang telah dimusnahkan oleh jentolak. Namun apa yang mendukacitakan Dennis adalah ADUN Mulu Dato Gerawat Gala menyatakan ia bukan satu kemenangan. Ia hanyalah pemulangan tanah oleh syarikat kepada kerajaan negeri. Anda nilaikan sendiri pendirian wakil rakyat sebegini. Adakah penduduk MUlU masih nak mengundi wakil rakyat sebegini?

Dennis Along, customary land activist – MULU PEOPLE HAS WON NCR LAND ENCROACHMENT CASE IN MULU NATIONAL PARK AGAINST RADIANT LAGOON, BUT MULU ADUN DENY THE VICTORY OF THE PEOPLE.
Dennis reports that his side has won the NCR land encroachment case in the Mulu National Park area against Radiant Lagoon sdn.bhd &amp; the Sarawak state government. In an out-of-court settlement, Radiant Lagoon withdrew from cultivating 4,400 hectares of land for oil palm plantations in Mount Mulu - belonging to the Berawan, Tering and Penan tribes. Dennis and his friends in 2017 have several times driven the company involved from encroaching on the forest and planting palm oil there. The culmination of the case was brought to court. Attorney See Chee How represented Dennis and friends. Last July, the company involved left the disputed land. However, Dennis is still demanding compensation for environmental damage due to the greedy actions of the company involved. That is to claim compensation for the damage of 500 hectares of land that has been used as a breeding ground for oil palm seedlings. Felling of more than 3000 felled logs and compensation for the cemetery that was destroyed by bulldozers. But what saddens Dennis is that Mulu assemblyman Dato Gerawat Gala said it was not a victory. It is simply the return of land by the company to the state government. You evaluate the stance of such people's representatives yourself.

Fahmi Fadzil, Ketua Penerangan PKR – PH TERBUKA UNTUK BEKERJASAMA DENGAN SEMUA PIHAK YANG MENYOKONG PRINSIP PERJUANGAN YANG SAMA
Fahmi menjangkakan PRU15 akan diadakan tidak lama lagi. Jadi beliau dan pasukannya banyak menghabiskan masa di padang cuba menyelesaikan seberapa banyak masalah seperti pengundi di Lembah Pantai. Beliau akan mempertahankan kerusi parlimen untuk penggal ke-2.
Susulan permohonan parti MUDA untuk menyertai PH. Menurut Fahmi, majlis presiden PH akan membuat keputusan dalam masa terdekat dan pastinya sebelum PRU15. Namun pada dasarnya PH terbuka untuk bekerjasama dengan semua pihak yang menyokong prinsip perjuangan yang sama seperti bersetuju dengan Anwar Ibrahim sebagai calon perdana menteri, komited kepada reformasi institusi, ketelusan dalam pentadbiran dan memerangi rasuah.
Ditanya adakah kemasukan Parti MUDA mungkin menyukarkan pembahagian kerusi PH? Buat masa ini, PH mengekalkan formula peruntukan kerusi sama seperti PRU14 sebelum ini. Hanya 52 kerusi (PARTI BERSATU) dalam perbincangan bahagian. Ini bermakna Parti MUDA mungkin diberi kerusi yang ditandingi oleh parti BERSATU sebelum ini.

But in principle, PH is open to working with all parties who support the principles of the same struggle, such as agreeing with Anwar Ibrahim as a candidate for prime minister, committed to institutional reform, transparency in administration and combating corruption.
Asked whether the entry of the MUDA Party might complicate the division of PH seats? For the time being, PH is maintaining the same seat allocation formula as the previous GE14. Only 52 seats (PARTY BERSATU) in the division discussion. This means the MUDA Party may be given the seat contested by the BERSATU party before.</itunes:summary>

Chin Tong dari DAP berkata Pakatan mesti memenangi sekurang-kurangnya 80 kerusi di semenanjung untuk berpeluang mengambil Putrajaya, bermakna ia memerlukan 32 lagi kerusi dari Malaysia Timur.
Roland berkata, selepas mesyuarat PH, peruntukan kerusi untuk 2018 akan diteruskan pada 2022. Selain kerusi yang dimenangi asal, kami akan cuba sedaya upaya untuk memenangi lebih banyak kerusi, seperti P220 Baram. Kami berharap di bawah LOGO PH, di bawah momentum baharu, pengundi di Sarawak akan tahu bahawa PH tidak dapat dielakkan.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Iswardi Morni, Penganalisis Politik berasal dari Sarawak – KECENDERUNGAN POLIS MERAMPAS 5 TEPEFON RAFIZI DILIHAT LEBIG KEPADA MENGINTIP/MENCARI SALAH RAFIZI
Tindakan Polis memanggil Rafizi untuk dirakam percakapan dan 5 telefon bimbit beliau dirampas dilihat bercanggah dengan keadilan dan undang-undang. Rafizi bertindak mendedahkan Skandal LCS membabitkat mantan timbalan menteri Pertahanan Abdul Latif. Tetapi beliau yang terlebih dahulu dipanggil polis dan disoal siasat. Sepatutnya Abdul Latif dan orang-orang yang disebutkan oleh Rafizi dalam pendedahannya di panggil dan disaisat polis. Kecenderungan polis merampas 5 telefon Rafizi dilihat lebih kepada usaha mengintip/mencari salah Rafizi. 
Iswardi kesal dengan kenyataan speaker Parlimen yang bersandarkan kepada hujah - Perlembagaan masih mengesahkan Najib Razak sebagai ahli parlimen yang sah sehingga petisyen pengampunan yang difailkan selesai. Jelas Iswardi Speaker Parlimen keliru atau masih berusaha nak membela Najib dengan apa cara sekalipun.
Menurut Iswardi perlembagaan negara menyatakan bahawa mana-mana ahli parlimen akan hilang hak sebagai ahli parlimen setelah disabitkan bersalah dan didenda tidak kurang RM2000 atau penjara tidak kurang 1 tahun. Semua tahu bahawa Najib telah didenda RM210 juta dan penjara 12 tahun. Iswardi menegaskan bahawa mohon pengampunan dan hilang kelayakan adalah dua perkara berbeza. Ini Azhar Azizan Harun harus tahu, kata Iswardi.

Iswardi Morni, Political Analyst from Sarawak – THE TENDECY OF THE POLICE TO CONFISCATE 5 OF RAFIZI’S PHONES IS SEEM AS MORE OF AN EFFORT TO SPY ON RAFIZI
The Police's action of calling Rafizi to record his conversation and confiscating his 5 mobile phones is seen as contradicting justice and the law. Rafizi acted to reveal the LCS Scandal involving the former deputy minister of Defense Abdul Latif. But he was the first to be called by the police and questioned. Abdul Latif and the people mentioned by Rafizi in his disclosure should have been called and investigated by the police. The tendency of the police to confiscate 5 of Rafizi's phones is seen as more of an effort to spy on Rafizi.
Iswardi regretted the statement of the Speaker of Parliament which was based on the argument - The Constitution still confirms Najib Razak as a legitimate member of parliament until the pardon petition filed is completed. Clearly Iswardi the Speaker of Parliament is confused or is still trying to defend Najib by any means.
According to Iswardi, the national constitution states that any member of parliament will lose his right as a member of parliament after being convicted and fined not less than RM2000 or imprisonment for not less than 1 year. Everyone knows that Najib has been fined RM210 million and jailed for 12 years. Iswardi stressed that asking for forgiveness and being disqualified are two different things. Azhar Azizan Harun should know this, said Iswardi.</itunes:summary>

Jelas Iswardi Speaker Parlimen keliru atau masih berusaha nak membela Najib dengan apa cara sekalipun.
Menurut Iswardi perlembagaan negara menyatakan bahawa mana-mana ahli parlimen akan hilang hak sebagai ahli parlimen setelah disabitkan bersalah dan didenda tidak kurang RM2000 atau penjara tidak kurang 1 tahun. Semua tahu bahawa Najib telah didenda RM210 juta dan penjara 12 tahun. Iswardi menegaskan bahawa mohon pengampunan dan hilang kelayakan adalah dua perkara berbeza. Ini Azhar Azizan Harun harus tahu, kata Iswardi.

Iswardi Morni, Political Analyst from Sarawak – THE TENDECY OF THE POLICE TO CONFISCATE 5 OF RAFIZI’S PHONES IS SEEM AS MORE OF AN EFFORT TO SPY ON RAFIZI
The Police's action of calling Rafizi to record his conversation and confiscating his 5 mobile phones is seen as contradicting justice and the law. Rafizi acted to reveal the LCS Scandal involving the former deputy minister of Defense Abdul Latif. But he was the first to be called by the police and questioned. Abdul Latif and the people mentioned by Rafizi in his disclosure should have been called and investigated by the police. The tendency of the police to confiscate 5 of Rafizi's phones is seen as more of an effort to spy on Rafizi.
Iswardi regretted the statement of the Speaker of Parliament which was based on the argument - The Constitution still confirms Najib Razak as a legitimate member of parliament until the pardon petition filed is completed. Clearly Iswardi the Speaker of Parliament is confused or is still trying to defend Najib by any means.
According to Iswardi, the national constitution states that any member of parliament will lose his right as a member of parliament after being convicted and fined not less than RM2000 or imprisonment for not less than 1 year. Everyone knows that Najib has been fined RM210 million and jailed for 12 years. Iswardi stressed that asking for forgiveness and being disqualified are two different things. Azhar Azizan Harun should know this, said Iswardi.</description>

Wong Chen, MP PKR Subang – RASUAH BERLAKU SEJAK 1980-an, DAN PERLU BERHENTI SEKARANG
Malaysia berkembang pesat sejak 1980-an, kerana sumber seperti minyak dan gas asli, dan pembangunan banyak perusahaan, yang juga mula muncul seperti kes Rosmah.
Kes rasuah sebegini bukan perkara baru, malah sudah berpuluh tahun wujud.
Oleh itu, betul kata hakim, kejadian sebegini tidak boleh dibiarkan berterusan, dan jika tidak keadaan akan menjadi semakin serius sehingga menimbulkan masalah serius kepada negara dan rakyat.
Siasatan terhadap 1MDB adalah kredit kepada PH. Rakyat yang dipilih kerajaan (PH) untuk menangani masalah yang ditimbulkan oleh 1MDB. Apabila kita menjadi kerajaan, siasatan juga agak mudah.
Bagi kes-kes rasuah yang lain, kita sebagai kerajaan sememangnya akan mempunyai siasatan yang lebih lancar.
Tidak bersetuju dengan dakwaan bahawa ia adalah pendakwaan terpilih, semua kes berdasarkan bukti dan fakta. Pendakwa raya mesti mengendalikan tanpa campur tangan politik.

Wong Chen, PKR MP for Subang – CORRUPTION HAPPENDED SINCE 1980s, AND NEED TO STOP NOW
Malaysia has been booming since the 1980s, because of the resources such as oil and natural gas, and the development of many enterprises, which also began to appear such as the Rosmah case.
Such corruption cases are not new, but have existed for decades.
Therefore, the judge is right, such incidents cannot be allowed to continue, and otherwise the situation will become more and more serious, causing serious problems for the country and the people.
The investigation into 1MDB is a credit to PH. It is the people elected government (PH) to deal with the problems posed by 1MDB. When we become a government, investigations are also relatively easy.
As for other corruption cases, we as the government will naturally have a smoother investigation.
Do not agree with the claim that it is selective prosecution, all cases based on evidence and fact. Public prosecutor must handle without politic interference.</itunes:summary>

Chong Chen Jen, Pengerusi DAP Sarawak – AHLI DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI DIPILIH OLEH RAKYAT, TANGGUNGJAWABNYA UNTUK MEMPERSOALKAN KE MANA WANG RAKYAT DIHABISKAN
Semalam mahkamah tinggi Kuching mendapati YB Chong bersalah memfitnah kerajaan negeri Sarawak dan lembaga kewangan negeri Sarawak dalam kes “Black hole”.
Chong menyatakan bahawa sebagai seorang ahli dewan undangan negeri yang dipilih rakyat. Adalah tanggungjawab beliau mempersoalkan kemanakah wang rakyat dibelanjakan. Solan-soalan yang saya tanya di dalam sidang dun tidak dijawab dengan jujur dan lengkap oleh menteri GPS. Mereka memberi penjelasan bahawa wang lebih 1 billion setiap tahun dibelanjakan untuk membayar hutang pinjaman syarikat kerajaan.. Tanpa memberitahu apa projek/aktiviti syarikat berkaitan kerajaan terbabit lakukan. Ini menunjukkan kerajaan tiada ketelusan/akauntabiliti dalam membelanjakan wang rakyat. Saya amat tidak puas hati dan akan mengemukakan rayuan kepada mahkamah rayuan. Sebagai wakil rakyat dan rakyat Sarawak. Kami berhak mengetahui kemana setiap sen duit kami dibelanjakan. Mahkamah Tinggi telah memberikan ganti rugi kepada Kerajaan Sarawak sebanyak RM150,000 dan juga memerintahkan Chong Chieng Jen membayar kos sebanyak RM50,000.

Chong Chieng Jen, Chairman of Sarawak DAP – MEMBER OF THE STATE LEGISLATURE ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE, ITIT HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO QUESTION WHERE THE PEOPLE’S MONEY IS SPENT
Yesterday the Kuching High Court found YB Chong guilty of slandering the Sarawak state government and the Sarawak state financial board in the "Black hole" case.
Chong stated that as a member of the state legislature elected by the people. It is his responsibility to question where the people's money is spent. The questions I asked in the meeting were not answered honestly and completely by the GPS minister. They gave an explanation that more than 1 billion money is spent every year to pay the government company's loan debt. Without telling what projects/activities the government-related companies are doing. This shows that the government has no transparency/accountability in spending the people's money. I am very dissatisfied and will submit an appeal to the court of appeal. As a representative of the people and the people of Sarawak. We deserve to know where every cent of our money is spent. The High Court awarded damages to the Sarawak Government of RM150,000 and also ordered Chong Chieng Jen to pay costs of RM50,000.</itunes:summary>

Teo Nie Ching, Ahli Parlimen DAP Kulai – PERLU DASAR UNTUK MENGHAPUSKAN PERUNDINGAN ORANG TENGAH
Kos projek yang tinggi sering menjadi salah satu masalah utama yang dihadapi oleh negara kita. Laporan audit tahunan akan mengetahui projek mana yang beli mahal. Ini semua kerana ada orang tengah yang mengutip faedah, yang meningkatkan kos barangan atau projek.
Kita perlukan dasar untuk mengelak masalah rasuah, jadi perlu ada dasar untuk menghapuskan rundingan orang tengah. Project Solar adalah seperti itu, dan begitu juga dengan LCS. Setiap peringkat mesti mendapat untung.
Di bawah PH, 90% projek dibuka untuk tender, tanpa orang tengah untuk berunding atau mendekati kontraktor. Semasa pentadbiran PH, setiap ahli parlimen dan menteri dikehendaki menlaporkan butiran harta mereka, bukannya kerajaan sekarang yang hanya meminta nombor plat kereta tanpa butiran. Kita kena tahu berapa kereta yang MP dan menteri ada, jenis kereta, berapa rumah dan lain-lain. Kerana rakyat boleh membantu dalam penyeliaan, apabila didapati kereta yang kerap dinaiki menteri itu bukan yang dilaporkan, kemudian anda boleh bertanya kereta siapa itu? Syarikat apa yang menyediakan kereta dan mengapa? Ini boleh mengelakkan ahli parlimen dan menteri daripada rasuah dan menerima rasuah.

Teo Nie Ching, DAP MP for Kulai – NEED POLICY TO ELIMINATE MIDDLEMAN NEGOTIATION
The high cost of projects is often one of the major problems faced by our country. The annual audit report will find out which projects are expensive and which things are expensive to buy. This is all because there are middlemen who collect benefits, which increases the cost of items or projects.
We need a policy to avoid the problem of corruption, so there needs to be a policy to eliminate the middleman negotiation. Project Solar is like that, and so is LCS. Every level has to benefit.
Under PH, 90% of the projects were open to tender, with no middleman to negotiate or approach the contractor. During the PH administration, every MP and minister was required to disclose their wealth, details, instead of the current government only requiring a number without details. We need to know how many cars the MP and the minister have, what kind of license plates, and how many houses and etc. Because the people can assist in supervision, once it is found that the car the minister frequently rides is not the one reported, then you can ask whose car it is? the company's? Why does the company provide cars? This can prevent MPs and ministers from corrupting and taking bribes.</itunes:summary>

Wong Chen, MP PKR Subang – REFORMASI ANTI RASUAH ADALAH UNTUK MEMASTIKAN UNIT PENGUATKUASAAN BEBAS DAN MESTI DIBAWAH JAWATANKUASA PILIHAN KHAS PARLIMEN
Pembaharuan antirasuah oleh PH, adalah untuk memastikan agensi antirasuah itu bebas. Seperti yang kita tahu ketua pesuruhjaya SPRM Azam Baki mempunyai kes perdagangan saham, beliau harus meletakkan jawatan atau mengambil "cuti rehat sebentar“. Pelantikan SPRM dan pegawai mestilah di bawah jawatankuasa pilihan khas Parlimen. Yang kedua ialah unit penguatkuasaan undang-undang - pasukan polis dan kastam, yang perlu beroperasi secara bebas dan profesional, bukan di bawah pengaruh menteri, dan juga dilantik di bawah jawatankuasa pilihan khas Parlimen . Perkara yang paling penting ialah AG, dan AG perlu melaporkan kepada Parlimen. Badan kehakiman yang pada masa ini bebas dalam mahkamah persekutuan, tetapi mahkamah agung dan mahkamah daerah juga mesti mempunyai kebebasan yang sama, dan cara melantik badan kehakiman tidak boleh dilakukan oleh perdana menteri. Ini adalah asas-asasnya.

Wong Chen, PKR MP for Subang – REFORMATION OF ANTI-CORRUPTION IS TO MAKE SURE THE ENFORCEMENT UNITS ARE INDEPENDENT AND MUST UNDER SUPERVISION OF A SELECT COMMITTEE OF PARLIAMENT
Reformation of anti-corruption by PH, is to make sure the anti-corruption agency is independent. As we know MACC chief commissioner Azam Baki has share trading case, he should resign or take “garden leave”. The appointment of MACC and officers must be under the supervision of a select committee of Parliament. The second is the law enforcement units - police force and custom, which need to operate independently and professionally, not under the influence of the minister, and are also appointed under the supervision of a parliamentary select committee. The most important thing is the AG, and the AG needs to report to Parliament. Judiciary, which is currently independent in the federal court, but the majestic and the district court must also have the same independence, and the way of appointing the judiciary must not be carried out by the prime minister.

UMNO youth today complained about 14 charges allegedly dropped by the PH government against its own politicians.

Allegations of 'terrorism' could not be substantiated.
Najib and a handful of others may see retribution, however Teo says the majority of UMNO leaders are involved in corruption, abuse of power and illegal money laundering.

Teo Nie Ching, Peguam dan Ahli Parlimen DAP Kulai – TOMY THOMAS VS IDRIS HARUN MELEPASKAN KES YANG SANGAT BERBEZA, IAITU CAJ HASUTAN VS CAJ PENYALAHGUNA WANG.
Kesan pemenjaraan Najib Razak. Ketua Pemuda UMNO Asraf Wajidi hari ini menyerang PH dan menyenaraikan 14 kes mahkamah yang dikatakan melibatkan pemimpin PH digugurkan semasa 22 bulan era pentabiran PH. Antara 14 yang disenaraikan ialah ahli parlimen sungai Buluh- R.Sivarasa- kes memaparkan poster palsu Najib Razak di FB. Hassan Abdul Karil- dituduh dibawah akta hasutan.Ahli Parlimen 
Menurut Teo majoriti kes yang digugurkan oleh PH adalah berkaitan akta hasutan, perhimpunan haram dan kes LTTE. Teo berpendapat tidak wajar menahan seseorang yang mendemonstasikan hak asasi untuk bercakap dan berhimpun. Maka adalah wajar mereka dibebaskan. Manakala kes berkaitan LTTE- kerajaan tidak ada maklumat untuk mengaitkan mereka dengan pengganas. Maka sewajarnya ia digugurkan. Tidak betul juga mengaitkan 14 kes terbabit dengan PH- kerana ramai nama yang disebut adalah NGO, NGI dan aktivis. Semua mereka berjuang untuk kebebasan bersuara.
Menurut Teo mojoriti pemimpin UMNO terbabit terbabit rasuah, salah guna kuasa dan penggubahan wang haram. Mereka dilepas dan dibebaskan oleh Peguam Negara Idrus Harun. Malaysia kerugian/kehilangan berbillion ringgit. Ini adalah kes salah guna kuasa dalam pentadbiran kerajaan UMNO/BN sekarang.

Teo Nie Ching, Lawyer and DAP MP for Kulai – TOMY THOMAS VS IDRIS HARUN LET OFF CASES VERY DIFFERENT, WHICH ARE SEDITION CHARGES VS MONEY LAUNDERING CHARFES
The effect of Najib Razak's imprisonment. UMNO Youth Leader Asraf Wajidi today attacked PH and listed 14 court cases that allegedly involved PH leaders being dropped during the 22 months of the PH administration. Among the 14 listed is the member of parliament for Buluh River - R. Sivarasa - case of displaying a fake poster of Najib Razak on FB. Hassan Abdul Karil- accused under the sedition act. 
According to Teo, the majority of cases dropped by PH are related to acts of sedition, illegal assembly and LTTE cases. Teo thinks it is inappropriate to detain someone who is demonstrating the fundamental right to speak and assemble. So it is appropriate that they be released. As for the LTTE-related cases, the government has no information to link them to terrorists. So it should be dropped. It is also incorrect to associate the 14 cases involved with PH - because many of the names mentioned are NGOs, NGIs and activists. All of them fight for freedom of speech.
According to Teo, the majority of UMNO leaders are involved in corruption, abuse of power and illegal money laundering. They were released and released by Attorney General Idrus Harun.

Fahmi Fadzil, Ketua Penerangan PKR – HUTANG NAJIB BEBANKAN NEGARA DAN RAKYAT
Kes Najib membebankan negara dan rakyat kerana kita terpaksa menanggung faedah hutang IMDB yang mencecah 30billion. Ada pihak yang bersimpati dengan pemenjaraan Najib, tetapi diketepikan simpati, beban yang dibawanya kepada negara terlalu berat.
Pemenjaraan Najib boleh menjadi kempen mereka, dan pihak berkuasa akan menggunakan imej "miskin/bersimpati" untuk mendapatkan sokongan, sokongan kepada BN.
Setuju dengan apa yang diperkatakan oleh ramai pemimpin, pemenjaraan Najib bukan satu perayaan, tetapi satu amaran. PH juga tidak akan berputus asa. Fakta bahawa musuh lemah tidak bermakna kita kuat.
Anwar berkata, PH akan menumpukan usaha penyatuan untuk memperkukuh PH itu sendiri. Kedua Pakatan Harapan akan bersaing dengan satu logo iaitu logo Pakatan pada PRU15. Fokus PH bukan pada kes Najib, tetapi untuk mengukuhkan PH.
Ada orang kata Najib juga banyak melakukan kebaikan semasa pentadbirannya. Tetapi sebenarnya, semasa pentadbirannya, terdapat kes penipuan bot dan 1MDB, yang tidak baik. Tetapi ini adalah masalah besar yang perlu PH selesaikan.

Fahmi Fadzil, PKR Information chief – NAJIB’S DEBT BURDENS COUNTRY AND PEOPLE
Najib's case is a burden for the country and the people as we have to bear the interest on the IMDB debt which reaches 30billion. There are people who feel sympathy for Najib's imprisonment, but sympathy aside, the burden he has brought to the country is overweight.
Najib's imprisonment can be their campaign, and the authorities will use a "poor/sympathetic" image to gain support, support for BN.
Agree with what many leaders have said, Najib's imprisonment cannot be a celebration, but a warning. PH won't let up on this either. The fact that the enemy is weak does not mean that we are strong.
Anwar said that, PH will focus on consolidation efforts to strengthen PH itself. Secondly Pakatan Harapan will compete with one logo, which is the Pakatan logo, in the GE15.	PH's focus is not on Najib's case, but on strengthening PH.
Some people say that Najib also did a lot of good things during his administration. But in fact, during his administration, there were boat fraud cases and 1MDB, which were not good things. But these are big problems that PH needs to fix.</itunes:summary>

Sistem kehakiman Malaysia masih lemah. Semua hakim, termasuk ketua hakim negara dilantik oleh PM, tidak ada negara demokrasi yang melakukan ini. Kerana apabila sudah ada hubungan yang mengikat, ia mudah terjejas. Badan kehakiman adalah bebas jika ia bukan milik mana-mana jabatan atau unit.

Malaysia's system judiciary is still weak. All judges, including the chief justice, appoint by PM, no democratic country has done this. Because once there is a binding relationship, it is easy to be affected. The judiciary is independent if it does not belong to any department or unit.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Iswardy Morni, Peguam Aktivis dari Sarawak – NAJIB, TIADA LAGI PELUANG UNTUK PRU15
Najib terus masuk ke Sungai Buloh atau Kajang hari ini.
Banyak masa untuk pertahanan sehingga Jumaat ini. Tetapi kedua-dua pasukan Najib tidak menggunakan masa itu dengan baik dalam pertahanan mereka. Sebaliknya, terdapat pelbagai muslihat yang cuba memanjangkan kes itu. Akibatnya, mereka kehilangan peluang untuk membela, dan mahkamah memberikan penghakiman secara langsung.
Khamis hingga Isnin lalu, ada peluang pihak pembelaan mengemukakan bukti bagi membuktikan hubungan Nazlan dengan Maybank.
Taktik terakhir adalah untuk menunjukkan ketidakadilan mahkamah persekutuan kepada dirinya sendiri dan mencipta imej mangsa. Najib telah disabitkan kesalahan dan oleh itu tidak lagi memegang jawatan dalam pilihan raya umum akan datang.
Seterusnya, mari kita lihat kes Zahid. Mengenai pilihan raya umum, ada dua kemungkinan, satu sebelum kes Zahid; satu lagi selepas kes Zahid. Kita tahu ada mesyuarat sulit di UMNO malam tadi untuk cuba meminta Perdana Menteri membubarkan Parlimen secepat mungkin supaya pilihan raya umum dapat diadakan secepat mungkin.

Iswardy Morni, Activist Lawyer from Sarawak – NAJIB, NO MORE CHANCE FOR GE15
Najib goes straight into Sungai Buloh or Kajang today.
Lots of time for the defense until this Friday. But neither of the Najib ‘s team made good use of that time in their defense. Instead, there are multiple ploys trying to prolong the case. As a result, they lost the opportunity to defend, and the court gave the judgment directly.
Last Thursday to Monday, there was an opportunity for the defense to present evidence to prove Nazlan's relationship with Maybank.
Last tactic is to show the unfairness of the federal court to itself and create the image of a victim. Najib has been convicted and is therefore out of office in the upcoming general election.
Next, let's look at Zahid's case. Regarding the general election, there are two possibilities, one is before Zahid's case; the other is after Zahid's case. We know that there was a secret meeting at UMNO last night to try to get the Prime Minister to dissolve Parliament as soon as possible so that a general election can be held as soon as possible.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Peguam Aktivis dari Sarawak – NAJIB, TIADA LAGI PELUANG UNTUK PRU15
Najib terus masuk ke Sungai Buloh atau Kajang hari ini.
Banyak masa untuk pertahanan sehingga Jumaat ini. Tetapi kedua-dua pasukan Najib tidak menggunakan masa itu dengan baik dalam pertahanan mereka. Sebaliknya, terdapat pelbagai muslihat yang cuba memanjangkan kes itu. Akibatnya, mereka kehilangan peluang untuk membela, dan mahkamah memberikan penghakiman secara langsung.
Khamis hingga Isnin lalu, ada peluang pihak pembelaan mengemukakan bukti bagi membuktikan hubungan Nazlan dengan Maybank.
Taktik terakhir adalah untuk menunjukkan ketidakadilan mahkamah persekutuan kepada dirinya sendiri dan mencipta imej mangsa. Najib telah disabitkan kesalahan dan oleh itu tidak lagi memegang jawatan dalam pilihan raya umum akan datang.

Iswardi Morni penganalisis politik berasal dari Sarawak – UMNO BOLEH PECAT ISMAIL KALAU TAK DENGAR ZAHID
Media melaporkan Pemimpin tertinggi UMNO mengadakan pertemuan tergempar di ibu pejabat parti itu di ibu negara Kuala Lumpur hari ini. Ia  dipimpin presiden parti UMNO Zahid Hamidi dan ramai ketua-ketua bahagian dari seluruh negeri dipanggil.
Ditanya berkaitan hal tersebut- bukan satu rahsia bahawa ia adalah gerakan UMNO untuk mendesak perdana menteri mengadakan pilihanraya  umum ke15 secepat mungkin- kata Iswardi. Agendanya mereka membincangkan kerjasama UMNO dengan PAS dan kerjasama UMNO dengan BERSATU untuk mengelak pertembungan 3 penjuru. Namun paling penting adalah menetapkan calon-calon di setiap kerusi yang ditandingi dan mendesak supaya pilihanraya umum ke15 diadakan segera. menurut Iswardi, sekiranya Perdana Menteri enggan menurut kehendak presiden UMNO Zahid Hamidi. UMNO boleh memecat Ismail Sabri dari UMNO- sekaligus Ismail akan jatuh dari jawatan perdana menteri. Menurut Iswardi lagi kebimbangan Zahid adalah semakin lama pilihanraya tidak diadakan. Maka semakin banyak pembongkaran skandal membabitkan Zahid dilakukan oleh pihak pembangkang.

The media reported that UMNO's top leaders held an emergency meeting at the party's headquarters in the capital Kuala Lumpur today. It was led by UMNO party president Zahid Hamidi and many heads of departments from all over the state were called.
Asked about the matter - it is not a secret that it is UMNO's movement to urge the prime minister to hold the 15th general election as soon as possible - said Iswardi. Their agenda is to discuss UMNO's cooperation with PAS and UMNO's cooperation with Bersatu to avoid a 3-cornered clash. But the most important thing is to appoint candidates in each contested seat and insist that the 15th general election be held immediately. according to Iswardi, if the Prime Minister refuses to comply with the wishes of UMNO president Zahid Hamidi. UMNO can fire Ismail Sabri from UMNO - at the same time Ismail will fall from the position of prime minister. According to Iswardi, Zahid's concern is the longer the election is not held.

Dennis Along, aktivis dari Baram – 50% PEKERJA ASING DI SEKTOR TIDAK MEMPUNYAI PERMIT KERJA
Berkaitan mudahnya pekerja asing tanpa pengenalan diri sah memasuki negara ini -kami menemubual Denis Along bertanyakan bagaimana keadaan sektor perladangan kelapa sawit dan pembalakan ekoran pembekuan kemasukkan pekerja asing sejak julai lalu. Dennis berkata. keadaanya sama saja. Menurut Dennis 50% pekerja asing di sektor terbabit tidak ada permit kerja dan tiada dokumen pengenalan diri yang sah. Keadaan akan menjadi lebih sukar apabila ada diantara mereka berkahwin dengan wanita pedalaman. Anak-anak hasil perkahwinan ini tiada kerakyatan. Selain itu menurut Dennis negara kehilangan hasil berjuta-juta ringgit hasil cukai dan yang paling untung adalah pihak syarikat perladangan dan pembalakan. Persoalannya kenapa mereka bebas dan berani melakukan perkara ini. Jawapannya adalah rasuah. Ada pihak yang memproses kemasukan pekerja asing tidak sah ini dan memperolah untung daripadanya dengan menerima rasuah daripada syarikat berkaitan.
Kami yakin, data berkaitan pekerja asing di negara ini telah lengkap. Lebih-lebih lagi ketika pengambilan Vaksin covid19. Semua pekerja asing di setiap sektor diwajibkan berdaftar untuk membolehkan mereka mendapat vaksin. Terpulang kepada kerajaan menguatkuasakan undang-undang. Atau penguatkuasaan undang-undang menjadi lemah kerana berlakunya rasuah yang berleluasa. Penguatkuasaan undang-undang imigresen untuk keselamatan negara. Namun kerana rasuah sarawak mudah dimasuki- walau anda tiada dokumen pengenalan diri atau permit kerja.

Dennis Along, activist from Baram – 50% OF FOREIGN WORKERS IN THE SECTOR DO NOT HAVE WORK PERMITS
Regarding the ease with which foreign workers without legal identification can enter the country - we interviewed Denis Along to ask how the oil palm plantation and logging sectors are doing following the freeze on the entry of foreign workers since last July. Dennis said. the situation is the same. According to Dennis, 50% of foreign workers in the sector do not have work permits and no valid identification documents. The situation will be more difficult when some of them marry women from the interior. The children of this marriage are stateless. In addition, according to Dennis, the country lost millions of ringgit in tax revenue and the most profitable were the plantation and logging companies. The question is why they are free and dare to do this. The answer is corruption. There are parties that process the entry of these illegal foreign workers and make a profit from it by accepting bribes from related companies.
We are confident that the data related to foreign workers in this country is complete. Especially when taking the covid19 vaccine. All foreign workers in each sector are required to be registered in order to be vaccinated. It is up to the government to enforce the law. Or law enforcement becomes weak due to rampant corruption. Enforcement of immigration laws for national security. But because Sarawak corruption is easy to enter - even if you don't have an identity document or work permit.</itunes:summary>

Iswardy Morni, Aktivis Peguam dari Sarawak – PERMINTAAN TERAKHIR NAJIB DAH TAMAT
Najib mempunyai hak untuk menukar peguamnya, tetapi hanya sebelum perbicaraan, yang kini telah bermula. Jadi Hisyam cuba melepaskan dirinya kerana peguam utama Najib tidak adil kepada mahkamah atau orang lain. Jika Hisyam merasakan dia tidak mampu mengendalikannya, dia tidak sepatutnya mengambil kes itu sejak awal. Mereka tidak boleh dianggap sebagai diluluskan. Saya rasa ini adalah kali terakhir Najib yang terdesak untuk menuntut perbicaraan dilanjutkan.
Jika Hisyam berkeras untuk menarik diri, dia mungkin didakwa menghina mahkamah, dan kes itu akan diteruskan dan tidak berhenti.
Telah dinyatakan bahawa akan ada pilihan raya umum pada bulan Oktober, tetapi sama ada Najib boleh bertanding pilihan raya bergantung kepada keadaan perbicaraan. Terdapat tiga situasi: (1) Jika dia disabitkan kesalahan, dia tidak boleh bertanding untuk pilihan raya. (2) Jika kes dilanjutkan selepas pilihan raya umum, dia tidak boleh menjadi calon juga, kerana risikonya terlalu besar. (3) Jika dibebaskan sebelum pilihan raya, dia boleh menjadi calon.
Topik LCS melibatkan seluruh negara, bukan hanya Malaysia Barat atau UMNO. GPS Sarawak berada di pihak yang sama dengan UMNO. Jika difikirkan oleh rakyat Sarawak, rasuah itu melibatkan berbilion ringgit. Jika ia digunakan di Sarawak, berapa banyak pembangunan yang akan berlaku? Jadi itu soal rakyat negara.

[TOP STORY]
Iswardy Morni, Lawyer Activist from Sarawak – NAJIB LAST DESPERATE DEMAND WAS GONE
Najib has the right to change his lawyer, but only before the trial, which has now begun. So Hisyam seeks to discharge himself as Najib's lead counsel is unfair to the court or others. If Hisyam felt he was incapable of handling it, he should not have taken the case in the first place. They cannot be assumed to be approved. I think this was Najib's last desperate to demand an extension of the trial.
If Hisyam insists on withdrawing, he may be charged with contempt of court, and the case will continue and not stop.
It has been pointed out that there will be a general election in October, but whether Najib can run for election depends on the circumstances of the trial. There are three situations: (1) If he is convicted, he cannot run for election. (2) If the case is extended after the general election, he cannot be a candidate either, because the risk is too great. (3) If acquitted before the election, he can be a candidate.
The LCS topic concerns the whole country, not just West Malaysia or UMNO. Sarawak's GPS is on the same side as UMNO. If Sarawakians think about it, the corruption involved billions of ringgits. If it is used in Sarawak, how much development will there be? So that's a matter of the people of the country.</itunes:summary>

Nik Nazmi, Naib Presiden PKR – PENGKHIANAT WAJIB DIHUKUM
Isu penangguhan penghantaran LCS bukan hanya tentang rasuah, ia adalah mengenai pengkhianatan, mendedahkan negara kepada bahaya. Bukan rakyat yang perlu menggunakan kapal, tetapi tentera yang berdiri di barisan hadapan untuk rakyat. Pada tahun 2020, tentera laut Malaysia bertemu dengan tentera laut China di Laut China Selatan. Jika kelengkapan kapal tidak sempurna, tentera laut kita akan diletakkan dalam keadaan bahaya. ini sangat penting.
RCI diperlukan, dan kandungan siasatan mesti didedahkan sepenuhnya kepada rakyat.
Negara kita memerlukan LCS, tetapi siapa yang bertanggungjawab dalam kes ini mesti ditangani. Bukan sahaja pajak gadai atau orang korporat harus dilayan, malah ahli politik dan menteri terbabit juga perlu dihukum.
Bekas ketua tentera laut mendakwa dibicarakan atas tiga pertuduhan CBT membabitkan RM21.08 juta. Tidak ketara berbanding 9 bilion program bot LCS. Malangnya, Indonesia dan Mesir juga menempah bot yang sama, tetapi kedua-dua negara mendapat 2. Dan kami belum mendapat satu lagi.
Ini bukan kali pertama tentera menghadapi masalah, kami juga menghadapi masalah dengan kapal selam 'Scorpène', termasuk helikopter.
Nik Nazmi tidak menganggap wang membelanjakan dalam ketenteraan adalah masalah, tetapi masalahnya ialah rasuah dan mendedahkan negara kepada bahaya adalah masalah besar.

Nik Nazmi, Vice President of PKR – TRAITORS MUST BE PUNISHED
The issue of delayed deliveries of LCS is not just about corruption, it is about betrayal, exposing the country to danger. It is not the common people who need to use ships, but the army that stands in the front line for the people. In 2020, the Malaysian navy encounter the Chinese navy in the South China Sea.

[BERITA UTAMA]
Nik Nazmi, Naib Presiden PKR – PENGKHIANAT WAJIB DIHUKUM
Isu penangguhan penghantaran LCS bukan hanya tentang rasuah, ia adalah mengenai pengkhianatan, mendedahkan negara kepada bahaya. Bukan rakyat yang perlu menggunakan kapal, tetapi tentera yang berdiri di barisan hadapan untuk rakyat. Pada tahun 2020, tentera laut Malaysia bertemu dengan tentera laut China di Laut China Selatan. Jika kelengkapan kapal tidak sempurna, tentera laut kita akan diletakkan dalam keadaan bahaya. ini sangat penting.
RCI diperlukan, dan kandungan siasatan mesti didedahkan sepenuhnya kepada rakyat.
Negara kita memerlukan LCS, tetapi siapa yang bertanggungjawab dalam kes ini mesti ditangani. Bukan sahaja pajak gadai atau orang korporat harus dilayan, malah ahli politik dan menteri terbabit juga perlu dihukum.
Bekas ketua tentera laut mendakwa dibicarakan atas tiga pertuduhan CBT membabitkan RM21.08 juta. Tidak ketara berbanding 9 bilion program bot LCS. Malangnya, Indonesia dan Mesir juga menempah bot yang sama, tetapi kedua-dua negara mendapat 2. Dan kami belum mendapat satu lagi.
Ini bukan kali pertama tentera menghadapi masalah, kami juga menghadapi masalah dengan kapal selam 'Scorpène', termasuk helikopter.
Nik Nazmi tidak menganggap wang membelanjakan dalam ketenteraan adalah masalah, tetapi masalahnya ialah rasuah dan mendedahkan negara kepada bahaya adalah masalah besar.
