Petronas should repay PTPN study loans by Sabahans, demands new NGO

KOTA KINABALU: A new citizen movement that has demanded that oil royalty for Sabah should be at least 70 percent, Oil for Future Movement (OFF), now wants state-owned Petronas to repay all study loans from PTPN (National Higher Education Fund Corporation) by Sabahan students.

OFF chairman, Phillip Among, said thousands from Sabah who had loaned study aids from the government-controlled PTPN have become victims instead of the scheme when they could not find jobs for courses taken under the PTPN loan.

Don't Dilly Dally Over RCI

Dr Jeffrey

 “The Prime Minister should announce once and for all whether the RCI is on or off. The PM should show sincerity and clear the confusion” said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, Chairman of STAR Sabah.

Right now, the dilly-dallying shows that the Government is insincere and only playing with the emotions of the people on the eve of the forthcoming general elections.

The delay is also embarrassing BN component leaders who have been made to believe and committed themselves to the announcement of the RCI that never materialized.

Will Sabah BN/PR Ask for 50% Oil Royalties

Dr. Felix Chong

“Will Sabah DAP lead Sabah Pakatan and ask for 50% oil revenue for Sabah and more particularly demand for 50% if and when Pakatan forms the next federal government” asked Dr. Felix Chong Kat Fah of STAR Sabah.

“Similarly, will the Sabah BN ask for 50% of the oil revenue for Sabah?”

“As part of STAR Sabah’s causes and aspirations for Sabah, STAR is seeking an increase of the oil revenue to 50% nett revenue. It is set out in STAR’s Petroleum Masterplan which is comprehensive and covers a wide range of policies for Sabah’s oil and gas beneficial to Sabah and Sabahans.”

TENOM: Kerajaan digesa agar jangan terlalu ghairah mengadakan pilihanraya umum kali ke-13 sekiranya masalah mengenalpasti kesahihan dokumen pengenalan diri belum diselesaikan terlebih dahulu menerusi Suruhanjaya Siasatan DiRaja (RCI).

Adalah difahamkan bahawa penubuhan RCI telah pun dipersetujui oleh Kabinet Persekutuan dan dijangka akan diumumkan Perdana Menteri pada bila bila masa sahaja, kata Naib Ketua Bahagian Parti STAR (State Reform Party) kawasan Tenom Gosubin Yosundang.

Kenapa PM tak umum RCI?

TENOM : Kedatangan Perdana Menteri Dato'Seri Najib Tun Razak ke Sabah yang difahamkan akan ada pengumuman mengenai penubuhan Suruhanjaya Siasatan DiRaja (RCI) yang sebelum ini ianya dinanti nantikan pelbagai lapisan rakyat namun khabar gembira itu disambut dengan kehampaan dan kekecewaan rakyat Sabah.

Malahan ramai yang kecewa kerana menunggu dengan penuh harapan ianya akan menjadi kenyataan namun sehingga Najib balik ke Kuala Lumpur, beliau langsung tidak menyebut pun soal RCI.
