STAR Ranau chief, Jalibin Paidi |
RANAU : Today's explanation by the Sabah Water Department Director Ag Mohd Tahir Talip on the water supply problem in four kampungs in Ranau which staged a demonstraion last weekend speaks volume of our doomed condition.
Don't just acknowledge the problem and cite every plans and pledge that could be imagined. Fix the problem fast, treat this no water supply as urgent matter and don't drag this for another election time just to make some more promises to the marginalised natives.
The water authorities together with leaders of the ruling party should go really down on the grounds to examine where the problem lies and carry out some immediate remedy with passion and some seriousness. Don't play with the people's life and sanity.
The people I met in Ranau were tired of just gimmick announcements every now and then everytime there is problem. We believe the water problem affecting Kg Paka 1, Kibbas, Koporingan and Purak Ogis is not unique to us but found everywhere else in Sabah.Don't just acknowledge the problem and cite every plans and pledge that could be imagined. Fix the problem fast, treat this no water supply as urgent matter and don't drag this for another election time just to make some more promises to the marginalised natives.
The water authorities together with leaders of the ruling party should go really down on the grounds to examine where the problem lies and carry out some immediate remedy with passion and some seriousness. Don't play with the people's life and sanity.
The state authorities should deliver results now and not deliver rethorics or mere lip-service to resolve our perennial most basic need - clean water.
Last weekend a group of 60 representatives from four kampungs staged a 15-minute peaceful sit-in protest at Kg Kibbas tamu ground in a protest of what they called the ruling party's "Janji Tak Ditepati" or "false promise" on providing water supply to them.
They had claimed the kampung folks had been without supply of clean water for years and things got messier as the only iron water tank that used to store water from Mesilau river has rusted with knee's deep mud and rust inside it, having never been maintained or cleaned.
Ly J. Sya Welliam (ed: Ly J. Welliam), the spokesman for the group had said, the water tank could no longer store water and that many of about 3,000 in the four kampungs had always been without clean water.
"We are forced to use rain water... some of us have to buy raw water and bring home every now and then for our domestic chores. Until when must we wait for clean water supply? It is almost 50 years of independence this month..." he said.
The four kampungs involved in the protest held at Kampung Kibbas roadside here today are Paka 1, Koporingan, Purak Ogis and Kibbas itself.
They held their peaceful sit-in demonstration under the watchful eyes of a group of policemen from the district police.
The second Government Transformation Programme (GTP 2.0) gives hope to the people, especially folk in Sabah, to improve their quality of life.
ReplyDeleteState Assistant Resource Development and Information Technology Minister Datuk Jainab Ahmad Ayid said there were still many areas in Sabah, especially in the interior, that were lacking in infrastructure to enable the people to get information technology (IT) facilities.

DeleteEducation is the only way to get the poor out of poverty and for that, we cannot escape the use of IT.
DeleteThe State government hope to achieve 90 per cent accessibility to IT in Sabah by 2015, based on the GTP 2.0.
Jainab also advised the people against using IT, especially through social networking websites, to manipulate political issues.
DeleteJainab was noted saying the people should be wise in evaluating current developments, including efforts carried out by the government.

Deletetrue, the government should fix the problem fast..
ReplyDeleteusaha untuk memenuhi keperluan rakyat perlu dibuat sepanjang masa.
ReplyDeleteusaha sentiasa dibuat. semoga keperluan rakyat akan dapat dipenuhi.
ReplyDeletekerajaan sesungguhnya berusaha memenuhi keperluan rakyat.. tapi ada sebilangan pihak yang tamakkan kuasa suka sangat menafikan usaha2 kerajaan.. rakyat juga perlu faham bahawa usaha kerajaan adalah secara berperingkat2, bukan sekaligus.. jika ada apa2 kmuskilan, minta terus penjelasan dari pihak kerajaan, bukannya si jalibin..
Deletekantoi sudah ba si Jalibin ni.. dia ajak penduduk kampung berdemo sedangkan dia sendiri gagal mendapatkan penjelasan terlebih dahulu dari pihak yang bertanggungjawab..
ReplyDeletesebenarnya isu2 yang dibangkitkan oleh si Jalibin ni sedang dalam perhatian dan sedang dalam pelaksanaan.. entah terdesak kali si Jalibin mahu mepopularkan dirinya di Ranau memandangkan PRU sudah semakin hampir..
ReplyDeletesaya tengok penduduk kampung yang berhimpun tu pun macam kena paksa oleh si Jalibin saja.. tidak bersemangat langsung.. malah dari 4 buah kampung hanya 60 orang saja yang berhimpun?? malah majoriti belia2 muda pula tu.. sepatutnya yang berhimpun ialah golongan ibubapa atau nenek2 yang lebih merasa keperitan tanpa air..
ReplyDeleteSetiap apa yang dikatakan pastikan ada tindakan susulan.
ReplyDeleteJangan biarkan sesuatu yang dikatakan tidak dilaksanakan.
