A letter from an Orang Ulu in Sarawak...

My Brothers & Sisters,

By Burak Sem
Bintulu, SARAWAK: I am now on my 'time-off', back to my second home, Bintulu with my family for about two months. In fact, I am already recovered from 'jet-lag' two days ago, and nevertheless, not forgetting of the delays in my emails, which have have fallen behind for almost 9 days.

It's great to be home again, with the weather, foods, friends, relatives, culture and driving on the left side of the road. I am planning to go back to my kampung in Telang Usan in couple of days and hope to catch up with the situations and get myself to well prepared for the upcoming state election.

Disgustingly, the Sarawak political system, from other countries has been tagged to be corrupt, hopelessness, vague and primitive since 29 years under the Barisan National government.

Political system in this state of Sarawak is obviously unhealthy and people's rights are abused single-handedly by 'one evil man'. Social justice seems to be a far away dream. And the observance of the law seems ruthless.

It is a sad fact that Sarawak, although it has abundance in natural resources, vast area of lands, mighty rivers that could have placed abreast amount the world's richest countries have remained cellar dweller as among the poorest.

Patriots who react: 1,347 reminders for Zahid Hamidi

Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA: At times you should take offence. Like when your defence minister says maybe why you are not in the military is because your ethnicity makes you lack patriotism. So I’ll take offence, and I’ll ask for an apology.

Since his major misstep two days ago, Datuk Seri Dr Zahid Hamidi has tried to wriggle out of the growing perception he does not think non-Malays are patriotic enough.

A politician lives by perception and when he finds it worthwhile to point out “low patriotism” may be a factor for negligible military recruitment of non-Malays, irrespective of its impact, he has blundered.

More so when this is your defence minister, the man expected to lead the defence of the country by galvanising the spirit of its people to the defence of the “tanah air.”

More telling when you are the Umno vice-president with the highest number of votes, technically you are the third-ranking Umno leader, and the second in line to succeed the prime minister if Barisan Nasional (BN) stays in power.
