‘Friends of PKR…Really..??”
Friends will stick together through thick and thin. In Politics we know that a friend of my friend is my friend. An enemy of my enemy is my enemy.An enemy of my friend is my enemy. In real life this is not true but in politics we have to accept the fact that this happens.An academician in historical politics was quick to point out that the ‘Sarawak politics have come a full circle and this new generation of politicians are now more accomodating to each other. PKR with its multi racial concept is very acceptable.
Malaysiakini with this report that http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/93060 Anwar to tell all at PKR congress. Well,that will be attended by 2,000 delegates from 160 divisions are expected to attend the three-day congress from Nov 28. Anwar Ibrahim is expected to explain why the Pakatan Rakyat plan fell flat to take over the federal government. But the attention is now, which is tomorrow where PKR will obviously welcome more members and supporters to its fold.
It is learnt that many members of a Dayak-based state BN component party will also be handing over their application forms to PKR advisor Anwar Ibrahim during a 300-table dinner organised by ‘Friends of PKR’ in Sibu on Saturday. Moreover, Malaysiakini also learnt that Beginda Minda, the ex-publicity chief of PRS president Dr James Masing-led Balleh division who made the news recently with his call on Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud and Deputy Chief Minister Alfred Jabu to resign, and his supporters are also expected to join PKR also at the function.
The bottom line according to Chairman of Party Rakyat Sarawak Nangka Division it seems that many PRS members from the Rajang Basin are expected to leave enbloc and join PKR. It seems too that his deputy is very much involved with the organisation. According to his informed source his deputy’s services were prompted by a certain Councillor who was also instructed. Even a phone call to a PRS divisional secretary from Kuching had this response,” PRS organising,are you going to the dinner in Sibu..?” According to reliable sources a number of BN councillors are expected in the gathering. These councillors according to the source are not expected to be reappointed at years end. Nothing to lose says one councillor.
BN/PRS are not stupid says the divisional chairman and they will demand answers and this might even lead to a show cause letter to his deputy and others from his division who are involved and dismissal from the party. PRS secretary general who contacted audie61 when he heard of all this speculations and rumours said very simply,”Macam-macam” and we will take the necessary actions after the dinner.
The Chairman who was really bothered went on to say,”It seems that we have been made used and we are not a running dog.” Let’s be clear that PRS Nangka division has NOTHING to do with it and the deputy has done it in his own capacity. He added too that ,”This is Politics,don’t go looking for trouble,there are a lot out there.” Now,we are seen as detractors to BN and if this goes on we are not even worth a cent. How very true as I try to calm him down. If we want RESPECT this is not the way to do it, THIS IS CLEARLY BETRAYAL AND FALLING FOR SOMEONES SELFISH AGENDA.
Even some PKR members are not buying this idea of all this people joining enbloc. How many out of this total will be there when PKR really is in trouble..? 100 out of 3000..? It does make sense as this has been proven that most of the rural based members belongs to a number of political parties.Are they just changing shirts as and when they like.? Of course we welcome them and its CAPITAL for PKR Sarawak’s agenda. Gabriel Adit independant Assemblyman joining of PKR is a huge boost though as as Gabriel represents the FIRST DAYAK YB IN THE PKR FOLD. Of course its a first step for many to join PKR as they say a journey of a THOUSAND MILES starts with the first step.
The next interesting question would be what actions are going to be taken against the PRS members who will be at the dinner tomorrow the 15th? PRS President Datuk Sri James Masing and his supreme council will meet in Bintulu on November 22nd and the agenda would obviously discuss this matter. it is of absolute importance that SOMETHING CONCRETE needs to be done and for this to be addressed. PRS has been badly shaken with all this political activities surrounding the party and calmness needs to be restored.
PKR will be treating this NEW FOUND FRIENDS with an eye casting SIDEWAYS on how they will play their roles as members of PKR. The party does not need selfish agendas to fulfill individual goals but needs to see far and beyond whether PKR can be a PARTY OF THE FUTURE…..
I will be there in Sibu. Are you coming along? Many of us will be driving. Join us and lets fly the Keadilan flag high!!!
The person at the back. Dont trust him! we all know hwo is involved . Nothing to hide. we challenge him to be sitting next to Anwar and dont hide anymore…
Very right Nangka! Get rid of your Deputy and SACK him.. PKR will not want him too. If you want to join another party resign first and join. If not you are worst than a Criminal.
Aiya we all know who is involve lah? Dont need to hide. Even your Precious would not be saved anymore.
These councillors are good for nothing. Jump here and there and they should just resign instead of being removed. Bagi orang lain chance to serve lah!
The tremor has started in Sarawak??? Not another false start huh!
Is it true that Nangka will be the battle ground for PKR in next state election. Lets pray BN will retain the incumbant for Nangka seat.
for 50 years, the natives of sarawak have been conned big time. land were taken away and whats left for the natives?
masing and gang will only be concerned with their interests. PERIOD.
and the natives will continue to get the short end of the stick. continueto talk and talk ok.
KHATIJAH, BRING ME ALONG WITH YOU MY DEAR, IM LOSS! PLIZ GUIDE ME TO THE RIGHT PATH,IM LIVING IN DARKNESS,GUIDE ME MY DEAR GIVE ME HOPE, IM NOT A CRONY NOR A COLONY OF ANY RICH Y.B’s, PLIZ DEAR KHATIJAH, I RATHER BE YOUR SLAVE THAN LIVING IN THIS DARKNESS, GIVE ME HOPE PLIZ..
Its show time for Sarawakian. Go for change brothers and the people in Semenanjung will pray for you. No more bullying and all are created equal and must be treated equally.
I know brothers, sisters, mak cik, pak cik and my friends out there can do it, ‘Change, yes we can’
let me write in Iban so tat it is much more easier for me to speak out my mind(it is not tat i cant write in English).keterubah skali aku ka nyebut pasal root cause of tis issue.its all started with PBDS,i agree with the formation of PBDS and the Ming Court Incident,nya lah maia bala kitai Dayak beserakup ngelaban aki uban ti ka nyadi Raja di Sarawak tu,Raja semua Raja,Kings Of Kings…
and yet,my Uncle were among the founding members(Datuk Sri Edmund Langgu).tats was the real fight and battle for us Dayaks…unfortunately,we had fail and lose in tat battle.because of wat??it is because our own people,the Dyaks Leaders.do u wan to know why i say so???nama kabuah kitai Dayak rindu ka disabung Aki Uban ngelaban kitai sama dayak?fightings and disunity among the Dayaks means we had become a DWARF out of a Giant way back to the Great Old Days of SNAP ERA…it is us who should be blame for this…from snap to pbds,pbds to prs,snap to spdp….we should not lose and let ourself as the Dayaks being used and manipulated by aki uban in the past..it is moe tan 25 years he is in power and wat do we Dayaks gain frm it????politics nowadays is just like a business corporation to dome Dayaks Leaders…it is the nly way tat they can earn a wealthy life…JJM?MAWAN?JABU???those three are just a puppets and slaves to aki uban and his cronies..there is no way we as the Dayaks can put hopes or trust in them…NCR LAND issue??Urban Development?Poverty Rates??none of them has solved the problems of the Dayaks….THEY ARE USELESS!!!THIS ONE GOES TO ALL DAYAKS YBs AND MPs….shape out or ship out in the next election….for me they are nothings…….watever it is,it is still not too late for us as the new generation of Dayaks to wake up and stand up to champion our right!!!!joining PKR is just one of the best way for Adit since BN under aki uban dont want to take him back..MDC???it cant even exist,SNAP??tunggu masa saja ROS kasi deregistered,STAR??kapal tkda haluan…
we hope for the best for Adit in his political survival and journey….there is a lots more in my mind tat i jus cant post it here…im interested to discuss or even debate with anyone here who has the same interest with me(The Revival Of Dayak Politics)….im really hoping for reply frm all of u here but please bear in mind tat my one and only concern is THE DAYAKS….
Sarawakians..we are waiting to see the Borneo Tsunami. The ball is on your feet. Show us the way….PKR is the goal…..Teach those BN idiots a lesson not to marginalise us. They are only good at filling up their pockets using our name. And leave us to suffer. Just for example, Petrol, when is the fuel price coming down. Now per barrel is US56. We are paying profits not cost to Petronas. Just imagine instead Petronas subsidizing us we are doin the opposite, we are subsidizing(contributing) their profits. What kind of Govt is this.? Taib must go, BN must go too. They are fleeceing us. And they are talking of Ketuanan Melayu what the f*** is this.? We are the native of the land we don’t need no tuans…..So Tell BN to F>O>.
We Ibans have long been left out in the mainstream of economic development.Not only such, in every economic, education, civil service, there have been less Dayaks though we are also ‘prince of the soil’. The last 45years, for instance, we are not even classified of our race as Dayaks but others in the sense that we are not supposed to be bequeth with bumiputra status. What is these?
Let me ask, what have the Dayak leaders been doing for our community the last 45 years. Nothing, nothing at all except for their own self agendas. My parents were used to dance to welcome tourists in my longhouse. Even today, my generation are still doing the same.
Our lands have been taken away. These lands are ours for many many generations before time that history could even recorded. Where are the Iban leaders like Masing, Jabu or Mawan? It even takes Chee How to fight for us.If we don’t fight for change now with PKR, our future generations would become sea farers sooner than we know.
Our sentiments for change of better is gaining strong momentum. Our blood is hot and tide is high. Every minutes, we Ibans always remind ourselves and children why and what our brave forefathers did to fight the British colonists.
We may not have Bayang and Rentap to fight this time but we have PKR to help us fight for change.
