PBS Mula Buka Mulut Mengenai Suruhanjaya Siasatan Diraja

PRESIDEN Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS), Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan meminta kerajaan menubuhkan Suruhanjaya Siasatan Diraja (SSD) mengenai pendatang asing tanpa izin (PATI) di Sabah tahun depan sebagai tanda kesungguhan dan komitmen menangani masalah itu.

Beliau berkata sudah tiba masanya kerajaan mengambil berat perkara itu memandangkan permintaan tersebut sudah ‘agak lama’.

"Ini hanyalah panduan tetapi perlu diberi penekanan. Tumpuan seharusnya diberikan untuk menubuhkan suruhanjaya ini supaya hati rakyat Malaysia di Sabah akan lega dengan reaksi daripada pihak kerajaan.

KDMM a desperate attempt to entice KDMs to Umno

By Daniel John Jambun

Datuk John Ambrose, as the founder and President of the newly registered KDM Malaysia (KDMM) has been making a lot of publicity about the new association. Immediately we can sense that, although it is an NGO, it is not your usual type of voluntary organization. Firstly, it unashamedly declared that it number one purpose is to get KDMs to support Umno. KDMM has no intention to go into cultural and identity preservation work for the KDMs. It aims mainly to break the KDMs further by enticing them to Umno, i.e. away from PBS, Upko, PBRS and the opposition. So Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan is right in saying it a tool of divide and rule by Barisan Nasional.

EC chief: See no Evil, Hear no Evil

By Aidila Razak

INTERVIEW Claims about the systematic granting of Malaysian citizenship to thousands of illegal immigrants in Sabah in the 1990s is the stuff of legends.

And like all good legends, evidence of such a happening may seem aplenty, but there is nothing to irrefutably prove that it had occurred.

At least, that is what former Election Commission chief Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman believes of the dubious operation popularly dubbed Project IC or Project M.

Ustaz's 1Malaysia Plan for East Malaysia...proselytisation

An alleged move to second 80,000 teachers to Sarawak could trigger social
implications, says Parti Rakyat Sarawak president James Masing.

SIBU: Is an alleged move by the Education Ministry to transfer 80,000 teachers from Peninsular Malaysia to Sarawak an insidious plan to “convert” locals?

If it is, then Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak’s ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) government is digging itself into an even deeper hole here.

Already, the majority Christian Sarawakians are seething at the Umno-led government’s high-handedness and arrogant dismissal of the Federal Constitution in relation to freedom to practise one’s own religion.

Land grabs: ‘Police colluding with company’

By Luke Rintod of FMT

Villagers in remote Sabah have accused police
of helping a company occupy their land.

KOTA KINABALU: The displacement of villagers is continuing unabated in remote corners of Sabah – out of the public eye despite claims to the contrary by the Barisan Nasional (BN) state government.

Yet another land-grab case has surfaced. This time, it is in Kampung Mapat and Kampung Mapad in Pitas.

The victims lodged a police report here yesterday claiming that police had assisted a private company, Syarikat Jayasama Sdn Bhd, alienate their NCR (native customary rights) land.

Billions spent on Sabah infrastructures, but how come not much improvements?

By Fredoline Edwin Lojingki
EACH year both the Federal Government and State Government announced hundreds of millions of ringgits for Sabah and in fact thousands of millions ringgits for the whole country for so-called rural development which focussed on basic infrastructures. What astonish me is little is felt here in many rural areas in Sabah. I have travelled to many parts of Sabah in recent times and i found it scaring to claim that those billions were ever spent for the Sabahan people.

No Thinking Muslim Support for Himpunan Sejuta Umat

by Dr. Ahmad Farouk Musa

3:15PM Oct 24, 2011

After much hype, the Himpun gathering at Shah Alam Stadium on Saturday was a non-event.  The dismal attendance of roughly 5,000 hankering souls was a total letdown from the expected one million.

Despite the claim that Himpun was a success by the organisers, it was clear that it was more of a self-reassurance. Himpun failed miserably in their effort to instigate thinking Muslims into supporting their crusade.
