Musa ‘reluctant’ to fight for Sabahans

The lack of 'political will' to resolve the cabotage policy
will see Sabahans plunge deeper into poverty.

 KOTA KINABALU: A well-known consumer activist has criticised the Sabah government for lacking the courage to strike a deal with the federal government to bring down the prices of goods, especially food items, in the state.

“This is a long overdue issue. The state government has done nothing to alleviate the sky-rocketing prices of food items in Sabah,” said Patrick Sindu.

‘Lack of will’ reason for unresolved land woes

By Luke Rintod of FMT
The Sabah government, which has unfettered control over jurisdiction on land, should work out 'negotiated solutions' in all land-grab issues.

KOTA KINABALU: Globe-trotting Danish environmental consultant, Brigitte Feiring, who was commissioned to evaluate the effectiveness of Pacos’ land rights and natural resource management programmes among natives, has listed two reasons why land-grab issues are yet to be resolved in Sabah.

According to Feiring, the two reasons are a “lack of will” and “capacity problem”.

Stop sending Ustaz to Sarawak schools’

Dayaks in Sarawak must resist an alleged attempt to convert
their children and take away their rights.

KUCHING: A simmering issue over the alleged conversion to Islam of Dayak students and pre-schoolers in Sarawak is set to explode in the Umno-led Barisan Nasional’s face .

Responding to the latest allegations that there was an attempt to impart Islamic teaching and practices to non-Muslim children in some Kemas and government pre-schools in the rural areas, the state’s largest Dayak organisation has demanded an immediate stop to such covert activities.

Sarawak Dayak National Union (SDNU) which has well over 100,000 members are demanding that the Taib Mahmud-led state administration intervene and arrest the situation or face public wrath.

2012 Budget hollow, could be RM20b To RM36b, not RM4b: Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan

The exhortation of the 2012 State Budget rings hollow and the accolades by BN leaders and supporters are presumptuous and sometimes border on the “angkat ampu” type.  Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, the founder of the United Borneo Front (UBF) explained that while the 2012 State Budget of a record RM4.048 Billion may be the biggest in the history of the State, it needs to be seen in the perspective of a loss of some RM32 Billion of revenue “lost” to the Federal Government which could translate into a State Budget of RM36 Billion and even assuming a 50:50 revenue sharing formula with the Federal Government, the State Budget would still be at least RM20 Billion instead of RM4.0 Billion as presented by the Chief Minister last Friday.

THE WIND of change is sweeping throughout Sabah and Sarawak. After nearly 50 years there is a movement that is calling for total national unity in the Borneo states.

The United Borneo Front (UBF), an ad hoc NGO led by Jeffrey Kitingan, a former PKR Vice President, is awakening the people to the plight of Sabah and Sarawak’s association with the Peninsula.

Sabahans "terrible mistake" in opting for Malaysia

There is a swelling movement in the Borneo states
that is asking for more independence and
questioning Putrajaya's intentions.

Which Christian can help being angered by the accusation by PAS’ problematic Hasan Ali that Christian missionaries are using eight ways to proselytize Muslims - one of which included using a rather far-fetched ‘solar-powered handheld talking Bible.’ He also said that
Christians were setting up welfare groups that handed out financial and other forms of assistance to single mothers, the poor, the elderly and others with inducements including daily provisions, capital for business purposes and other aid.

Who’s behind the farmers’ party in Sabah?

Could Chief Minister Musa Aman and Harris Salleh be
genuinely working together to help poor farmers or
are they just keeping SPF as a get-away vehicle,
just in-case?

By Luke Rintod of FMT
KOTA KINABALU: A new political party that emerged in Sabah about a year ago is raising eyebrows after it appeared to have received the support of two influential leaders – Chief Minister Musa Aman and former chief minister Harris Salleh.

Who really is behind the Sabah People’s Front Party (SPF)? The question keeps popping up during discussions about politic movements in the state.

Chilling Report From Brussels

Hope all is well down in Borneo.

 

I have just read the entire Geert Wilders speech and I must admit his account of the islam migration related events in Europe is no news for me, it is merely a summary of what we all experience every day. It is 100% correct that non Muslim women are insulted regularly by them, the local women being called whores or harrassed on the streets. In some towns in northern Europe blonde women dye their hair black so they are not too conspicuous when being noticed by muslims.

 

The Bet

A little old lady went into the Bank of Canada one day, carrying a bag of money. She insisted that she must speak with the president of the bank to open a savings account because, “It's a lot of money!”

After much hemming and hawing, the bank staff finally ushered her into the president's office.

The bank president then asked her how much she would like to deposit. She replied, “$165,000!” and dumped the cash out of her bag onto his desk.
