Sabah Floods - Activate Flood Mitigation Programs - Dr. Jeffrey

Kota Kinabalu:    “The third round of devastating floods is ravaging Sabah with the loss of the life of a child, yet the federal government has failed to show any urgency in tackling the problems in Sabah.” said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, STAR Sabah Chief after the latest round of floods.

More than 30 villages in Tambunan, Keningau and Tenom were flooded with more than 2,000 evacuees in flood relief centres.   There were also reports of serious flooding in the District of Beaufort and flash floods in many other parts of Sabah.   Some 36 schools were also flooded and had to be closed.

Unity in Sarawak will keep Umno out . . .

KOTA KINABALU : Many Sarawakians are apparently upset that Alfred Jabu, who is by no means that popular in any case, was not named to take over from outgoing Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud.

KUCHING: Meskipun Tan Sri Alfred Jabu Numpang tidak dilantik menjadi Ketua Menteri Sarawak, namun kaum Dayak khususnya Iban, diyakini ‘tatap’ mengundi Barisan Nasional (BN) dalam  pilihan raya negeri yang dijangka tahun depan.

Itulah kesimpulan yang boleh dibuat atas keberanian ketua menteri yang akan bersara Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud mengenepikan Jabu dari jawatan itu sebaliknya memilih iparnya Tan Sri Adenan Satem, sebagai pengganti mengemudikan bumi kenyalang.

Where’s your dignity, Jabu?

KUCHING: While Sarawak Barisan National Dayak leaders and elected representatives ‘praised’ outgoing Chief Minister Taib Mahmud’s choice of successor, netizens from the community are bitter and angry.

Majority of Sarawak’s voters are Dayaks and if their spewings on social media is any measure then Taib has made a wrong move by sidelining his loyalist, longstanding Deputy Chief Minister Alfred Jabu.
