ISTIMEWANYA PATI, HINANYA ANAK NEGERI

Oleh : RAHMAN IBRAHIM

BETAPA hinanya Anak Negeri Sabah kerana Dewan Bandaraya Kota Kinabalu (DBKK) tanpa teragak-agak menghantar jentolak untuk meranapkan rumah mereka di beberapa kampung di Likas, Inanam dan Sepanggar atas alasan rumah mereka adalah Setinggan; sinonim dengan pepatah Melayu, hina besi kerana karat, hina manusia kerana melarat.


Isu Pati Dari Kacamata Negarawan Sabah

“Adalah lebih berhemat, jika Kerajaan Persekutuan menghantar mereka ke negeri-negeri lain di Malaysia secara purata 125,000 orang PATI bagi setiap negeri terutama bagi masalah kekurangan tenaga buruh atau untuk kepentingan politik..” kata Tan Sri Simon Sipaun, Mantan Naib Presiden SUHAKAM.

Tan Sri Simon Sipaun merupakan rakan lama saya ketika kami sama-sama dalam perkhidmatan kerajaan dan sikap tegasnya tidak berubah sekalipun telah bersara daripada Kerajaan.

Bagi saya, beliau adalah seorang negarawan yang wajar dicontohi oleh lelaki Malaysia kerana sumbangan dan baktinya kepada rakyat Sabah dan kesinambungan perjuangan hak asasi manusia.

Suaranya yang lantang kadangkala tidak disenangi pemerintah seolah tidak sedar kepada siapa beliau bercakap sehingga seringkali dianggap sebagai suara pembangkang sedangkan pada dasarnya beliau menyuarakan suara rakyat yang tertindas.

KUALA LUMPUR, July 18 — Malaysia and the Vatican have agreed to establish formal diplomatic ties to promote mutual friendship and strengthen co-operation between both countries, Wisma Putra announced today.

The announcement came following Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s audience with Pope Benedict XVI at the papal summer residence, Castel Gandolfo, outside Rome today. The head of the Roman Catholic Church usually spends the summer outside the church’s capital Vatican City.

A good reminder for all

LET THIS TRUE STORY SERVE AS A WARNING

To the men : warn your loved ones!
To the women
: remember this!

About a month ago there was a woman standing by the Mega Mall entrance passing out flyers to all the women going in. The woman had written the flyer herself to tell about an experience she had, so that she might warn other women.

Peter Marajin's reply to Herbert’s outburst on 17.07.2011

Press Statement by
Mr Peter Marajin
SAPP Supreme Council Member
Kota Kinabalu, July 18, 2011

Responding to Datuk Herbert Lagadan's statement yesterday, herewith is my response to it:

On YB Herbert's insistence that the Tambatuon Dam be built:

Has he actually seen the Working Papers or experts’ Report on the proposed project? Have the affected people in Tambatuon been given the opportunity to read and study the Report. Have the YB and the Authorities or the Interested Parties who proposed the project held dialogues with the affected people in Tambatuon about the project so as to give the people the opportunity to voice out their opinions, doubts and apprehensions (if any) and for the Authorities to clear the air?

Sabah gov’t housing policy more for aliens?

The recent announcement by Datuk Madius Tangau that the state government was forming three committees to look into three important problems in Sabah, namely citizenship and immigrants, land affairs and political appointment/power sharing clearly showed it was a belated plan by a neglectful or a failed government. 


Red Rally, August 13th in Sarawak by Dr John Brian

By Dr John Brian Anthony

The Chairman of MoCS Francis Siah has confirmed that the “walk” is on. The Sarawak Government has been very vocal in opposing such walk as the “RED Rally”. The objections are many and many Sarawakian has voiced their negative opinion on the RED Rally walk. The most interesting excuse is that it is not Sarawak culture to create havoc or inconvenience others. Why is a democratic right to assemble associated with “culture” in Sarawak? There is no relevance at all or no link to one another at all. The Cabinet members in Sarawak might not have been brief properly. But if Sarawak practice democracy as window dressing but in fact employ dictatorship in reality then of course the cabinet members can say that the rally is “illegal”.

The outburst included an accusation that Taib was a member of the Freemason society, which many Muslims despise.
