Indigenous people in East Malaysia please read this.

Najib said that he agreed the set up a Cabinet committee for indigenous people in East Malaysia. First it probably sound nice but personally i don't really find it amusing at all. The reason is,

1. Indigenous giving the impression that the race targeted such as Kadazan, Iban, Bajau, Dayak and Murut and others living in the forest without proper education and standard of living as is impossible for a Sabahan and Sarawakian to lead the country as well as to be Prime Minister one day in the future.

2. How is this committee can help when the social and economic development of indigenous people orang asli in the Malaya peninsular still far behind under UMNO led BN government. Not many orang asli get the fair chances in education and economics because of the bias that mainly influences by their choices in religious acceptance.

3. Do local sabahan (kadazan and dusun) and sarawakian (dayak and iban) do really need a special committee or proxy for their own interest where Federation Constitution Malaysia Article 153;

and 20 Point Agreement;
Point 12: Special position of indigenous races


are far more better protect their interest in long run and is in the constitution and responsibility by Yang DiPertuan Agong to protect the rights of Sabah and Sarawak natives and not this committee.

4. Contradicting so called 1Malaysia principal by quote from a malay 1Malaysia book text;
Menjadi asas kepada semua ini adalah prinsip keadilan untuk semua kaum, yang membawa maksud bahawa nasib semua kaum akan terbela dan tiada mana-mana pihak akan dipinggirkan. Keadilan ini mestilah mengambil kira taraf kemajuan kaum-kaum yang berada pada tahap yang berbeza. Oleh itu, dasar-dasar kerajaan dan peruntukan-peruntukan Perlembagaan yang memberikan pembelaan kepada golongan yang memerlukannya, akan tetap dilaksanakan

Meaning, Sabahan and Sarawakian interest should be discussed at the highest government meeting and as a national agenda without a sub special committee to compromise and filter or to lobby it. It is not known yet how much effectiveness of this committee ability to influence the main agenda in PM Najib administration.

5. Another desperate and simple short term fix by the UMNO to divert the main issues that raised by the majority of sabahan long time ago that still not resolved or attended. Sabahan and Sarawakian has the huge natural resource and political resource to negotiate for more superiority in governing the country more than the whole Malaya combined.

LRT System @ Kota Kinabalu

is a stupid idea...

1. bus transportation still not fully utilized

2. poor management of town public transport

3. the train line upgrade still not done (or will it?)

4. crazy expensive way to travel around city

5. big huge steel buffet for steel thief

6. lots of public, private and pirate buses and cabs will lost their income

7. sabah electrical power supply still not manage the local consumption, how can it supply the LRT system?

8. another lame way by corrupt politician to dig money out from the public fund

i wonder what is happening to the current rail upgrade works? ..

What is Tambunan Declaration?

Jeffery Kitingan explained it at the interview with NST Online;

1. to respect the special rights and autonomy of Sabah and Sarawak, including the 20 Points (agreement made during the formation of Malaysia)

2. the creation of a second deputy prime minister for the Borneo states

3. setting up a royal commission of inquiry to resolve the issuance of identity cards to foreigners and the large presence of illegal immigrants

4. raising oil royalty from the present level of five per cent to 20 per cent

5. getting a fair portion of federal cabinet posts as well as in the foreign service and to allow Sabah to plan its own socio-economic development
