STAR: BN Government Planning to Abolish Native Rights

The native customary rights of indigenous people are recognized and are to be protected and have been universally adopted of late by many countries under the United Nations Declaration of Rights of Indigenous People.

The recent statement by the Lands and Surveys Director that NCR does not exist after the enforcement of the Sabah Land Ordinance, 1930 is not unexpected as the present government has failed to resolve NCR problems in the State.

The Director cannot be blamed for being used as the mouthpiece of the BN government and merely echoed the previous statement of the State Attorney General.

Setakat manakah kejujuran bn selepas pecah tanah?

TENOM: Kerajaan Barisan Nasional (BN) digesa agar penyempurnaan majlis pecah tanah pekan kecil Melalap benar benar menepati janji mereka kepada rakyat dan bukan ibarat sekadar melepaskan batuk ditangga kerana pilihanraya umum kali ke-13 (PRU-13) sudah menghampiri waktunya.

Malahan majlis seumpama itu pernah berlaku semasa era bekas Perdana Menteri Tun Mahathir Mohammad lebih 10 tahun lalu dimana ketika itu satu majlis pecah tanah di Tenom Lama kononnya untuk memulakan pembinaan jalanraya antara Tenom ke Beaufort namun sehingga kini dilupakan begitu sahaja.

Budget snub a ‘blessing in disguise’

Although there is no Budget cheer for Sabah
and Sarawak, the people in the two states
can now plan for alternative solutions in
the coming general election.

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah and Sarawak, which have been treated as Barisan Nasional’s “fix-deposit”, have been sidelined in Budget 2013.

But it is a “blessing in disguse” because the people in the two states can now plan for alternative solutions.

It appears that Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, his advisers and the ruling BN are very confident that both states won’t slip away from BN grip at the coming general election.

This explains why they could afford not to deal with the prevailing “touchy” issues in Sabah and Sarawak.

7 fingernail problems not to ignore

Spoon nails
Spoon nails (koilonychia) are soft nails that look scooped out. The depression usually is large enough to hold a drop of liquid. Often, spoon nails are a sign of iron deficiency anemia or a liver condition known as hemochromatosis, in which your body absorbs too much iron from the food you eat. Spoon nails can also be associated with heart disease and hypothyroidism.

Terry's nails
With the condition known as Terry's nails, the tip of each nail has a dark band. Sometimes this can be attributed to aging. In other cases, it can be a sign of a serious underlying condition, such as liver disease, congestive heart failure or diabetes.
