The police and the Penans
Sim Kwang Yang | Oct 25, 08 1:54pm
The brief uproar over the alleged rape of Penan school girls in the national media has died down, while the white-wash campaign in the Sarawak media continues unabated.
MCPX
Recently, Sarawak Police Commissioner Mohamad Salleh reportedly said that a four-man team under his supervision went to Baram to start investigations. He announced that the team would investigate an alleged rape in 1994. He said, “Although the incident took place 14 years ago, I want to assure the public that are will investigate without fear or favour”.
I remember that old case well, as I was directly involved in having the police report lodged-at the central police station (CPS) in Kuching.
I was still the sole opposition MP from Sarawak then. While attending Parliament sitting in Kuala Lumpur in 1993, I was pressed quite a few times by my then colleague the MP of Petaling Jaya Dr Kua Kia Soong to look into the allegation of rape of a 15-year-old Penan girl in Baram. He had heard about it from some Australian NGOs.
On returning to Kuching, I decided to send my personal assistant See Chee How to Baram and visit the Penans. The 2000-mile journey to and fro would take two weeks, requiring Chee How to fly from Kuching to the town nearest the Penans in the inhospitable rugged and torturous terrain of the great upper Barram headwaters. From the town, Chee How would then have to travel by longboat in the treacherous Baram rapids and walk for days in the jungle before reaching his destination.
I was already physically weakened by my diabetic conditions while Chee How was young, fit, and very well-trained.
When Chee How returned to Kuching, he confirmed that the local Penan communities did tell him the story of a 15-year-old girl raped by some security personnel, and a six-year-old boy had also died from a tear gas attack upon a blockade put up to resist logging operations.
Penans brought to Kuching
Apparently, the Penans had made the long-trip downriver to Marudi and even Miri, trying to make police reports against the crimes committed on their children. But the policemen on duty in these places simply refused to accept their police report. (It is against the law to refuse to take a police report, but if you are meek, shy, and respectful Penans, what can you do?)
We then decided that perhaps it would be better to bring the Penans to Kuching to lodge the police report. I was a serving MP, and had a little clout with the police, the media, and government departments and agencies in the capital city of Sarawak.
It must have been a logistics nightmare, a huge financial burden, and a communication cul-de-sac across 1000 miles of the dense forest in Sarawak. But with the help a group of very supportive friends, Chee How pulled it off.
Many months of hard work and thorough preparation later, the Penans walked into my office in Kuching one bright morning, in a single file, as they are won't to do in the forests. They wore street clothes and looked rather smart, though I surmised that they could not have felt very comfortable in them. Apart from their short stature in their physique, they looked no different from any other group of Sarawak natives.
There were 18 Penans in the party, including four tua kampong (village chiefs) village elders, women, and the rape victim whose identity was never revealed. They settled down on two rows of long benches and faced the excited crowd of reporters who had turned out in full force to attend the first press conference by some Penans in their lives. Even reporters from a TV station were there!
I still remember it as if it was yesterday.
A reporter would ask a question in simple Malay, such as “How many Penans in your area have been affected adversely by the logging?”
Apparently, the idea of a single spokesperson was (and probably still is) alien to the Penan culture. A Penan man would turn to his nearest neighbour and a brief consultation in their Penan language would ensure in a soft murmur.
That neighbour would turn to his nearest neighbour in turn, for a soft conference lasting a minute or two. The process would continue down the line until it returned to the first Penan who initiated the process. He would then give an exact number of Penans affected by bad logging in his area.
Despite the reporters impatience for quick, shot-gun responses to which they were used, the Penans answered their every question with this languid laborious and amiable process of group consultation in low whisper!
Naturally, there was little press coverage of what the Penans said at the press conference the next day. The media organisations in Sarawak were all either owned directly or under the thumb of the elite group who control political power and the logging interests in the state.
Perfect hosts, perfect guests
That evening, i invited all my visitors from the Upper Baram forest to my house for a meal. I had prepared a huge pot of pork-leg-peanut stew, knowing the Penans' partiality for pig meat. I was sure my farm pig was nowhere in taste near their wild boar, but then wild boars must have disappeared in their over-logged jungle. After the meal, we sat around in a big circle on the cement floor and chatted, as was the fashion with friendly gatherings among fellow Sarawakians. A good time was had by all.
Bright and early next morning, we proceeded as a single group to the Kuching central police station looking out to the Central Padang, where the Merdeka celebration is held annually.
I had made an appointment with the commanding officer at the CPS, and he was prepared. We were invited to sit round a large oblong table in a conference room. We had prepared a long report of the rape of the 15-year-old girl and the untimely death of the six-year- old boy at the blockade. While the long report was copied dutifully word for word into the brownish official police report book, the visitors from Baram were treated to coffee or tea, and cakes. The hosts were perfect hosts, and the guests were perfect guests.
During the remainder of the day, the Penan visitors made a few trips across town, trying to see officers in the Health, Education and other departments, and even the Chief Minister's office. It was no surprise to me that everywhere they went, the door was slammed shut in their face.
The transport and communication infrastructure in the vast remote rural area of Sarawak is so primitive that progress in working with the indigenous communities would take years where it would take mere weeks or months in the urban centres.
Unfortunately, my time ran out. In 1995. I was defeated in the parliamentary contest in Kuching. I was compelled to retire from politics because of my bad health.
(Fortunately, my friends in Sarawak continued to work hard in their lonely cause of defending the rights of the Sarawak indigenous communities. Chee How had since qualified as a lawyer and he joined Baru Bian's law firm. Between them, they now have over 100 cases in court, representing various indigenous communities all across Sarawak against encroachment upon their customary land rights by the state government, loggers, and plantation companies).
I tell this tale not for the self-serving purpose of showing how heroic I was in trying to bring justice for the Penans. I merely want to show how hard it is for the Penans just to make a police report if a Penan girl is raped, and a Penan boy, killed.
That is the sort of injustice that cries out for the total overhaul of our political culture. Surely, the greatness or meanness of our Malaysian society is judged by how the weakest members of our Malaysian body politics are treated by the institutions of power?
Since then, I have thought about that poor Panan girl often.
Rapists are the real culprits
In my book of crime against humanity, rape is very near to the top of the list. I am not merely being self-righteous. I just have to think of the numerous beloved female members of my extended family.
I also agree with most women NGO's that rapes are not caused by women who are beautiful or who wear sexy clothes. Rapes are not crimes of sexual passion; they are crimes of violence. The rapists are the real criminals. They leave incurable and life-long psychological scars on their victims, who probably would never recover from their ordeal of being violated.
Chee How told me a few days ago that the Penan rape victim has since moved from Upper Baram to Middle Baram. She has never married and led a normal family life. She should be 29 this year.
So now, the Sarawak police chief wants to pursue this case 14 long years later - “without fear a favour”? One can only be “cautiously optimistic” about such a declaration of intent, which is the same as saying that one is down right cynical about the outcome of the police investigation.
Meanwhile, in the last 14 years, how many Penan girls and women have been raped by outside parties in the remote hostile and god-forsaken forests of Sarawak? We will never know. Even making a police report on such a heinous crime is so difficult for the Penans!
I have been cautioned many times not to reveal the identity of any rape victim. I will just say that the initial for that poor Penan girl 14 years ago is “S”, in case the police needs reminding.
I am very fond of her.
Happy Deepavali. May good triumph over Evil!

The most stupid Home Minister of Malaysian History, Syed Hamid giving the most stupid answer!
Policemen beat a retreat
KUALA LUMPUR: A police beat base located in the Chow Kit area of downtown Kuala Lumpur has been shut down because the “presence of criminals could make it unsafe” for police officers.
Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said the beat base was located in a dirty area where police faced the possibility of being exposed to contagious diseases. The presence of criminals also posed a threat to the safety of police officers. "What a joke!"
He said this in a written reply to Dr Lo’ Lo’ Mohamad Ghazali (PAS - Titiwangsa).
Dr Lo’ Lo’ had asked why the beat base along Jalan Haji Taib was closed considering that vice activities were high in the area. She also wanted to know what kind of action had been taken by the police to curb vice activities in the Chow Kit area.
Syed Hamid said police were in the midst of finding a new location for the beat base.
In an immediate response City Chief Police Officer Deputy Comm Datuk Mohd Sabtu Osman said the beat base was not shut down but had been relocated to bigger premises near Jalan Raja Bot.
“We moved there to provide better service as we have increased our manpower and need more space,” he said.
Dr Lo’ Lo’s question was the 30th in the Order Paper and hence did not get a mention in the House during the daily one-hour Question Time.
However, Dr Mohd Hatta Ramli (PAS - Kuala Krai) managed to raise the matter when he interjected during Azmin Ali’s (PKR - Gombak) speech during the debate on Budget 2009.
Dr Mohd Hatta said that if the police themselves felt unsafe in a beat base, it would be even worse for the public.
“Maybe it would be better to put the police beat base in the army barracks.”
Dr Mohd Hatta then managed to raise the issue again during his own debate on Budget 2009 saying that Syed Hamid’s response was irrational and hoped he would clarify his written answer as this was not the kind of police the people wanted.
“The police are there to make a place safe. If they themselves are scared and run away, how can we hope for others to want to be there?” he asked.
Dr Mohd Hatta said if the place was dirty, it was up to the police to organise gotong-royong activities to clean it up.
He added the only kind of contagious disease in the area was sexually transmitted, adding that getting infected was a matter of choice.

No one in Malaysia trust the police nowadays! They are the liscenced bandit of Malaysia and secret police for the Nazi-like BN government!
Because No one trust the "Nazi Gestapo-like" Police Diraja Malaysia!
Sexual abuse of Penan girls: Tell us, cops say
MIRI: Sarawak police have called on non-governmental organisations or human rights groups that have information about sexual abuse by timber workers against interior Penan and native girls to lodge official police reports immediately.
State Police Commissioner Datuk Mohmad Salleh said Sarawak police are prepared to launch an immediate investigation into these serious allegations.
“We need official police reports to facilitate an immediate probe. Any NGOs or natives who know of such cases should lodge a report at the nearest police station.
“If there is an official report, we can commence investigations immediately,” he said.
Mohamad said Miri police have told him they had not received any official report on the allegations, adding that he would also check with the police chief in the interior division of Baram.
Mohmad, here on a working visit, was presenting donations to widows and orphans at the Miri police headquarters when asked about allegations circulating in cyberspace concerning the sexual abuse of Penan women by timber workers in interior Baram.
The allegations were highlighted by the Bruno Manser Foundation on its website.
“Sometimes, the problem with NGOs is that they highlight complaints through their websites and the media. They don’t come to us (the police). They should come to us first,” he told a press conference here on Tuesday.
The website claimed that young Penan women in Baram had been sexually abused by timber workers in logging camps and in their settlements.
The foundation, based in Switzerland, is an environmental and human rights grouping set up by environmental activist Bruno Manser, the Swiss who made a name for himself in the 1980s when he organised huge anti-logging protests among the nomadic and semi-nomadic Penans of interior Sarawak.
He went missing in the interior of Sarawak in 2001.
A large part of Baram district, and other parts of interior Sarawak, have been alloted to private consortiums for logging and plantation development. Many of these areas are still populated by indigenous and minority groups, including the Penans.

At least Zaid is a more sensible minister but unfortunately the least powerful one!
Wrong use of ISA: De facto law minister
By IAN McINTYRE
KOTA BARU: The Internal Security Act (ISA) should not be used against civilians, de facto law minister Datuk Zaid Ibrahim said.
The Act should only be used against terrorists or those trying to topple the Government by force, the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department said at a press conference at his home here on Sunday.
He was commenting on the arrests of three people -- Seputeh MP Teresa Kok, Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamarudin and Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng -- under the ISA.
Tan has since been released.
“I will seek a meeting with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to have a frank discussion about this issue to seek his views as soon as possible,” he told reporters.
“I know I am breaking rank here ... I am prepared to face the consequences. If I am told to resign, I will do so.
"I am not a trouble maker and I don't want to cause any trouble for the Prime Minister, but I have my principles and will always be a vocal critic of the use of the ISA.
"I joined his administration to make changes and everybody knows, I am also for a more open form of media reporting," he added.
Zaid said it was time for the Federal Government to revert to the original spirit of the ISA, which was enacted to curb Communism and today should be used only on armed terrorists or those out to topple the Government by force.
“I am not calling for a repeal of the ISA, but it should only be use when there is a real threat to national security, such as armed terrorists, and not on civilians,” he said.
He said by using the ISA randomly, the Government was sending out a message that it does not trust the capabilities of its own enforcement agencies, such as the police, in maintaining peace.
There are ample punitive legislations such as the Penal Code, Sedition Act and criminal defamation to take against those who break the law or are involved in activities which may destabilise the Government, without having to invoke the ISA, Zaid said.
He said the use of the ISA also gives the impression of “selective prosecution” as the Government cannot incarcerate everybody.
“In this latest episode, we (the Government) have generated an impression of selective prosecution since no action was taken against the person who allegedly uttered seditious remarks.
“We are saying that we are only acting against those who are disloyal to us.”
“The Government needs to change and Cabinet members need to realise this -- we have to be progressive.”
Asked whether the ISA was likely used because of strained “race relations” which may undermine national stability, Zaid said that while he placed paramount importance on national stability, the role of the Government was to find solutions, not to make matters worse.
“I agree we have many issues and sensitivities to address but for me, racial disharmony is a seasonal thing in Malaysia. We must engage in open dialogues and discussions to resolve these issues,” he said.
On whether the ISA was used because the court process may be too long, Zaid noted that the Government never even attempted to use the court system first -- instead, it simply went ahead with using the ISA first.
“If our court system is too slow, we must ... make it more efficient by hiring more prosecutors, while the police must conduct proper investigation to acquire credible evidence,” he said.

Malaysia in Distress! As Malaysian We need to support those detained under ISA!
The net has been cast. RPK is snatched from Raja Sara, his youngest girl. Marina can take it....but what demon are you to do this to this young girl, the future of this country?
Reporter of Sin Chew who broke the Ahmad's story has also been arested under the ISA from her home in Bukit Mertajam. She reported what she witnessed and they snatched her whilst Ahmad can still frolick and determined to continue doing what he does best. He has snubbed his bosses.
My question to the Media: ARE YOU SO WEAK THAT YOU CANNOT LIFT UP THAT PEN AND PEN WHAT SHOULD BE PENNED. THE PEN IS NO MORE MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD.?
WHAT WILL THE NATIONAL UNION OF JOURNALISTS DO? I WILL TELL YOU. DOWN YOUR PENS AND FOREVER SHUT UP......UNLESS YOU CAN DO SOMETHING FOR YOUR COLLEAGUE.
Theresa Kok was also arrested under the ISA. This evidently instigated by defeated Menteri Besar of Selangor that an imam of the said mosque who filed a police report on the false accusation by Toyo that Theresa Kok had asked for the cessation of the azan call.This is not a country in distress?Aren't we expecting some statements from Suhakam, the NGOs, the Judiciary. If you can't manage a communique, then it becomes apparent that our fears are well-founded.....YOU ARE DUMB!
The police can catch 20,30, 40, 50 opposition leader but they can't catch all the rakyat! So we must be brave to support Reformasi!
We need the change of government now...not tomorrow...not next week but now unless thay want to get international condemn by catching all the opposition leaders in the country! UN and Commenwealth should condemn the action of the corrupted Malaysia government!
If the corrupted BN government think that this is going to stop us...They are dead wrong!
ISA dragnet widens: MP Teresa Kok too
Sep 12, 08 11:58pm
DAP leader Teresa Kok has also been detained under the Internal Security Act - the third person to be detained without trial today.

She was arrested after her vehicle was blocked by three police patrol cars.Deputy inspector-general of police Ismail Omar said that Kok's arrest was made under Section 73(1) of the Act.
According to party stalwart Lim Kit Siang, the three police cars with over 10 police personnel stopped Kok at her condominium entrance and took her away.He said that she was arrested while returning to her condominium in Kuala Lumpur from a Mooncake Festival reception in her constituency office.Kok has been in news in recent days - especially in the Malay dailies - after it was claimed that she had told mosque officials in Kota Damansara, Sri Serdang and Puchong Jaya to tone down the call to prayer.Kok however had denied the allegations.It could not be immediately ascertained if her arrest has anything to do with these claims.
In Penang, chief minister and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said the party would be holding an emergency meeting tomorrow to discuss the matter.Earlier today, Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamaruddin and Sin Chew Daily journalist Tan Hoon Cheng were also arrested under the Act.

Sin Chew Daily journalist Tan Hoon Cheng has been arrested today under the Internal Security Act at 8.30pm at her home in Bukit Mertajam, Penang.
Tan (left) is the second person after Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamarudin, to be arrested under the tough security law which allows for detention without trial.
Tan, 33, was taken by the police to the Penang police headquarters, where a crowd of 100 supporters have gathered to express their concern.Her arrest under the ISA has been confirmed by deputy inspector general of police Ismail Omar.Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng's political secretary Ng Wei Aik also confirmed Tan's arrest.
"Penang police chief Ayub Yaakob just confirmed the arrest of the journalist under Section 73(1) of ISA to the chief minister," he told reporters gathered at the Penang police headquarters at about 10.45pm.Section 73(1) allowed the police to detain Tan for a maximum of 60 days for investigations. After that, based on the outcome of the probe, she can be detained for two years without trial, and the term can be renewed indefinitely.Earlier Gerakan secretary-general Chia Kwang Chye was among those who visited the state police headquarters to inquire on the matter. He slammed Tan's arrest and called on the police to complete their investigation as soon as possible so that she could be released.It is learnt that a team from federal police headquarters in Bukit Aman, Kuala Lumpur, had arrested Tan.
Government ticked off for double standards
Meanwhile in an immediate reaction, MCA Youth legal bureau Gan Ping Sieu also condemned the use of ISA against Tan."The journalist concerned should be called for questioning and not be arrested," he said.He criticised the government for its double standards, adding that the arrest was a setback for democracy.He added that the MCA Youth legal bureau was prepared to form a team of lawyers to render legal assistance to defend Tan.
Tan was the journalist who reported that local Umno chieftain Ahmad Ismail had allegedly said that Chinese Malaysians are “squatters” in the country.
Her report sparked a nationwide outcry, resulting in Ahmad being suspended by Umno for three years after an emergency meeting on Wednesday.Sin Chew had three days ago came out strongly to defend Tan, who was accused by Ahmad for misreporting his comments.Tan, who holds a mass communications degree from Universiti Sains Malaysia, has been a journalist for nine years.
She has been with Sin Chew for four years. Before she joined Sin Chew, she was a journalist in Kwong Wah daily.
It is unclear whether Ahmad, who remained defiant despite being slapped with the suspension, has also been detained.
PAS leader Mujahid Yusuf Rawa was also at the police station and did not mince his words by saying that it should be Ahmad who must be detained under the ISA and "not the reporter who reported what he had said".

BN politicians are all great liers!
A busload of BN politicians were driving down a country road when, all of a sudden, the bus ran off the road, and crashed into a tree in an old farmer's field.
The old farmer, after seeing what had happened, went over to investigate.
He then proceeded to dig a hole to bury the BN politicians.
A few days later the local sheriff came out, saw the crashed bus, and asked the old farmer where all the BN politicians had gone.
The old farmer said he had buried them.
The sheriff asked the old farmer, "Were they all dead?"
The old farmer replied, "Well, some of them said they weren't, but you know how the BN politicians lie."

Even UMNO Veteran Leader said UMNO is RACIST!!
KOTA BARU: Umno is now perceived by many to be racist because its leaders cannot articulate effectively to the masses about the pre-Independance social contract, nor can they defeat abuses of the New Economic Policy (NEP).
Umno has lost its intellectual capacity to address misgivings among Malaysians and this has led to a perception that it is a racist party.
To further compound this, Umno leaders have lost credibility in the eyes of the public following the stunning losses in the March 8 general election, party veteran Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah said.
Speaking on Saturday at the opening of Kelantan’s People Action Council (MTRK) forum on Independance at the Grand Riverview Hotel, the Kelantan prince said it has now become common to see people define Umno as a racist party.
Why it has reached such a stage can be traced to three reasons, Tengku Razaleigh said.
The first is because parties with self-interests capitalise on the definitions of freedom and human rights to portray Umno as racist besides condoning a mischievous interpretation of the Federal Constitution.
The second is the complacency of Umno leaders who have allowed certain quarters to question the social contract and while rebuffing critics, Umno has not been able to shake off the stigma of been perceived as racist, he said.
Thirdly, there is no sincere effort to address the misgivings and misinterpretation over the definition of racism in the country.
Racism is where one race advocates hatred against the other and its actions underpin it, such as when the Nazis executed the Jews, explained Tengku Razaleigh.
''Umno advocates none of the above. It has never sought to close down any vernacular schools in the country. It knows how to co-exist with other races but yet, it is perceived to be racist,'' he said.
Umno needs to reinvent itself by upholding the social contract when studied through, is designed to be fair to all races, he said.
Tengku Razaleigh said many non-Malays believed that Umno or the Malays are the drivers of Malaysia.
''Of late, the Malays have become reckless and bad drivers until the Government is branded as inefficient,” he said.
Tengku Razaleigh said another step towards reinventing the party is to restore the moral credibility in the party.
''Is it too late? I hope not but Umno must come to terms about regaining the trust of the people. It must be seen as trustworthy.''
Corruption is an open secret in the country either through the public sector or within Umno until it has become a crisis to the party where only rich candidates would be voted while competency is ignored, he added.
Later, he said there is a need for stronger leadership in the country as it would prevent certain quarters from raising questionable issues which can further divide rather than mend relations among Malaysians.

Police in Malaysia is becoming like Gestapo during the WWII as they listen to order from UMNO like Nazi! Shame on them!
The Royal Polis force of Malaysia is behaving more like the Gestapo (The official secret police of Nazi during the Second World War) as thety seems to take order only from the UMNO party and not serve and protect the people (Rakyat) as they are supposed to be!They practice corruption and close one eye when the UMNO people is behaving like hooligans but on the other hand, arrest others who raise their disagreement with the government abuse of power and money. They are the true bandits of the country. What a shame!
A idiot Minister who don't even know who much a household spent on electricity!
Shahrir Abdul Samad, Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs:
Don't act like a Idiot by talking nonsense, who the hell in Malaysia use only RM 20 per month unless you steal the electricity! Or rich man who don't stay in the house! The allocation for this will only fall into UMNOPutera pocket!
Before becoming the minister, he was quite smart but after that.......he is just another idiot (or in fact a smart guy) who wanna fill his own pocket!
The government will give RM20 free electricity for poor home owners only. We are not copying the Selangor government that gives RM20 free water without considering they are poor or not. We are giving to those who do not actually use a lot of electricity, that fall in the income bracket that really needs help.
We have for those who need help that can't improve their lives in the economic position. It is the government's responsibility to increase the social safety net. That is a group that needs help and assistance and by assisting those behind the poverty line including pensioners who can't really find any other way to increase their income.
But for those who are above that line, particularly in the employed public sector, the budget is encouraging the employers to give benefits that can be claimed as a deductible expenses from their taxes. So it is a direct way for the private sector to be more productive.

Penans in Malaysia are neglected by the BN government! Shame to "Taik" (means shit) Mahmood CM of Sarawak!
TIMBER COMPANY LIKE SAMLING AND SHEN YANG GIVE OUT SALT TO PENANS FIRE VICTIMSMIRI: The 600 Punans who were made homeless when a fire razed their longhouse in Ulu Tatau, central Sarawak, said they felt hurt, insulted and humiliated when a timber giant gave them aid in the form of packets of salt.
The hungry and tired victims from Rumah Ado, located five hours by timber road from Bintulu, had been appealing for help from the Government and some timber companies operating in the Tatau district after the fire on Thursday.
Yesterday, the manager of a private logging consortium, which has its headquarters in Sarawak but with several overseas projects, handed the fire victims two packets of salt each.
Punan leader Penghulu Sanok Magai received the salt at the fire site in front of hundreds of victims.
Meagre help: Magai showing the packets of salt given as relief aid for fire victims by a timber company in Miri yesterday.
Magai was shocked but kept his cool and even managed a smile as he politely accepted the bags of salt.
However, the Punan National Association is fuming mad and its publicity chief Calvin Jemarang described the act as cruel and heartless.
“Why must this timber company insult the fire victims like this? If it is reluctant to give any aid, then do not give anything,” he said.

“These victims are homeless, have little food and drink and their future is uncertain, and yet this timber company humiliated them like this.”
Relief aid has been slow in arriving. The Bintulu Welfare Department has been sending rice, clothing and noodles in limited amounts because of logistic problems.
Jemarang appealed to politicians and private firms to give more aid.
This is how the people of Malaysia suffer! Corrupted and disgusting BN Najis and Pak Habislah!
Ismail Mamak...Shame of the ministry of health! Openly support Sodomy charges!
The TWO DOGS of Najis Tun Razak!

This will be the only hope of Malaysian in 51 years to free ourselves from the dictatorship of UMNO and BN puppets like MCA and MIC! It is indeed a historical point but the people of Permatang Pauh had to make sure they elected a leader for change or else the country will be an slave to UMNO for the many years to come.
No one showed trust the PAk Habislah... who is useless and not trust worthy as he could say one things and do another the next moment! It is really important that we should teach the UMNO and BN a lesson that they should not take people's view and welfare for granted.
I urged all Permatang Pauh to vote for Keadilan and justice for the country.

Doggy policemen is a shamefor the country and a tool for Najis to stopped Anwar from winning the by election!
Controversial blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin's house was once again raided by the police. This time in connection with a statutory declaration made by a doctor from Hospital Pusrawi.
A five-member team from the Bukit Aman police headquarters arrived at the blogger's house in Sungai Buloh at 8am. They confiscated a laptop computer, a scanner and some documents.
According to Raja Petra, this is the fifth time that the police have raided his house.
"The laptop which they confiscated the last time has yet to be returned to me," he said when contacted.
On Aug 1, Dr Mohamed Osman Abdul Hamid, a Burmese national, had filed a statutory declaration standing by his medical report which ruled out that Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan had been sodomised.
Saiful was examined by Osman before he lodged a police report on June 28 claiming that PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim had sodomised him.
In his statutory declaration, the doctor claimed that he had fled the country with his family following several visits by the police.

Khairy is the doggy in law of a useless and no principle prime minister of Malaysia....
Anwar Ibrahim, PKR candidate for Permatang Pauh, can stomach the personal attacks from top Umno leaders - he expected it. However the barrage of abuse from local Umno leaders, has made him quite distraught.
He said it was heartbreaking to know that certain local leaders - whom he regarded as friends - have abandoned their conscience and have chosen to batter him blue just for mere political gain.
"The local Umno leaders have forgotten that I was once their friend.
"They have sold their soul, lost their dignity and self-respect by attacking me merely to enhance their political interests," he told a rally at Permatang Tok Kandu in his by-election campaign trail - which saw yet another large crowd turnout and what is becoming common, police aerial surveillance.
Anwar recollected his days in office - when these now highly critical leaders were always trying to be close to him.
The days of being deputy prime minister, finance minister, Umno's national deputy president, Penang liaison committee chief and Permatang Pauh division chief before his sacking from government and party in 1998.
"Before 1998, these same people would follow me ever where, will shake hands with me and greet me with ‘Datuk Seri, Datuk Seri.
"They would be very possessive and protective over me, would not allow others to come near me.
"But today, they hitting me hard with all sorts of accusations," Anwar expressed.
Samseng son-in-law
In his speech, he took the opportunity to respond to statements from Umno Youth deputy chief Khairy Jamaluddin, and according to Anwar was behaving like a hired ‘Umno samseng' (gangster) entering the by-election campaign late.
"He (Khairy) suddenly makes an ambush ala mafia here and starts attacking me, calling on me to swear on this and that.
"Who's he anyway? Ulama, imam or religious scholar?
"He is a mere ‘menantu' (son-in-law)," he said, chiding the Rembau Member of Parliament of trying to win the best samseng title in Umno Youth, in view of the wing's election late this year.
Anwar faces Seberang Jaya state assemblyperson Arif Shah Omar Shah from Barisan Nasional and Angkatan Keadilan Insan Malaysia (Akim) president Hanafi Hamat in a three-cornered by-election tussle.
Anwar is the firm favourite but he faces the onslaught of the BN and its ‘stop Anwar at all cost' campaign for the remaining four campaign days.

Najib the Najis thought the Chinese and Indian are stupid to vote for him again!!
Deputy Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak made a plea to the Chinese and Indian communities in Permatang Pauh - come back to the Barisan Nasional's fold.
MCPXHe told them to reject the opposition and vote for Umno's Arif Shah Omar Shah in the Aug 26 by-election.
And he had one more word of counsel - do not gamble with your children's future by supporting the opposition candidate who had been making false promises.
"Do not be easily hoodwinked by the opposition promises and fall for their trickery because if we were to believe them, we will be quarrelling with each other," he told members of these two communities in Permatang Pauh yesterday.
He admitted that voters from these two communities had deserted BN in the March 8 general election, blaming that on the communities being unduly influenced by the opposition.
It was time to support BN again, he said.
Permatang Pauh, a semi-urban constituency in Penang, has 58,459 voters, consisting some 69 percent Malays, 25 percent Chinese and six per cent Indians.
He promised that the BN would champion the Indian and Chinese communities' cause in the constituency as they had been neglected by the opposition.

The 2 very different personality which share the same view...Malaysia need to be save by people power!
Two more prominent individuals have voiced their support for opposition stalwart Anwar Ibrahim, who has been charged with sodomy.
Former Indonesian president Abdurrahman Wahid (right) and former US Supreme Court judge Sandra Day O'Connor and said the recent developments in Malaysia were reminiscent of the 1998 campaign.
In a column for the Financial Times yesterday, the duo said: "The power to prosecute is one of the most awesome powers of the state. Without proper checks and balances it can easily be abused by those in power to humiliate and discredit innocent people."
"Even when the injustice is corrected, its victims are often left with their reputations permanently damaged.
"In Malaysia, the power to prosecute is being used to try to discredit Mr Anwar, the remarkable leader of the opposition, victim of a similar attack 10 years ago."
If this effort succeeded, Abdurrahman and O’ Connor (left) said it would be a tragedy for Anwar personally, the people of Malaysia and the world.
Yesterday, the PKR leader was charged in the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court for having carnal intercourse against the order of nature.
After pleading innocent, the former deputy prime minister was released with a personal bond of RM20,000.
The charge, preferred following a complaint by Anwar’s former aide Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan, carries a punishment of up to 20 years' imprisonment and canning if found guilty.
Integrity of the judicial system
On Tuesday, the opposition leader accused Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi of orchestrating a sham trial in a bid to cling on to power. The latter has denied this.
Anwar claimed that the charge was baseless and called it an attempt by his political rivals to prevent the opposition alliance Pakatan Rakyat from coming into power.
Meanwhile, Abdurrahman and O’ Connor said on the brink of Anwar's political comeback in the Permatang Pauh by-election, his enemies have fought back with new sodomy charges.
"We find it impossible to believe these charges. We know Anwar as a man of integrity and we appreciate the way he has spoken on behalf of freedom, democracy and human rights.
"The charges are inconsistent with everything we know about his character," they argued.
The Malaysian authorities, the columnists said, need to recognise that there is no way that continued pursuit of these charges can be viewed as credible, given the history of prosecutorial abuse and manipulation of evidence in the earlier proceeding against Anwar.
"His political future should be decided at the polls, not through some suspect prosecutorial proceeding.
"We are deeply concerned that the safety, freedom and reputation of an important leader in the Muslim world are at risk.
"So, too, is the integrity of Malaysia's judicial system and along with it the credibility of the government in general. The future of Malaysia as an example of success for the developing world and for the entire Muslim world may be at stake."
Abdurrahman and O’ Connor expressed hope that Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi - who "showed wisdom" earlier in facilitating Anwar's release from prison - will manage to drop the charges and in so doing serve the interests of justice for the people of Malaysia.
Former Indonesian president Abdurrahman Wahid (right) and former US Supreme Court judge Sandra Day O'Connor and said the recent developments in Malaysia were reminiscent of the 1998 campaign.
In a column for the Financial Times yesterday, the duo said: "The power to prosecute is one of the most awesome powers of the state. Without proper checks and balances it can easily be abused by those in power to humiliate and discredit innocent people."
"Even when the injustice is corrected, its victims are often left with their reputations permanently damaged.
"In Malaysia, the power to prosecute is being used to try to discredit Mr Anwar, the remarkable leader of the opposition, victim of a similar attack 10 years ago."

I hope Chandra can stopped making comment on the fairness of the democratic system when it is never fair to start of with.
First of all, let me remind all readers that the current government in Malaysia and even the democracy in Malaysia is at fault because it is not true democracy when you can have a member of parliment voted by just a few hundreds people versus one by ten of thousands of people and still consider as 1 vote in the parliment. That is why the BN candidate are usually from the village and had the mentallity of the frog under the coconut shell when looking at all issue.
I hope Chandra can stopped making comment on the fairness of the democratic system when it is never fair to start of with. It will just showed how narrow minded you are or you may be just another wolf hidding in the sheep skin for UMNO!
MESSAGE BELOW FROM MALAYSIAKINI
A former close associate of Anwar Ibrahim has criticised the opposition stalwart’s attempt to become prime minister through the 'back door' by instigating massive crossovers.
Political scientist Dr Chandra Muzaffar, who was also the former PKR deputy president, described this as unethical and undemocratic.
"A cabinet established through such an avenue will lack moral credibility. Parliament itself will be tarnished.
"Both the executive and the legislature - two vital arms of governance - will be perceived by the people as institutions that are bereft of integrity," he was quoted as saying by Bernama.
Chandra said acquiring power through the back door would demean and denigrate politics and added that Anwar had no mandate to oust the democratically-elected government of the day.
The academic also accused the PKR de facto leader as being consumed by a single-minded obsession to become the country's prime minister in the shortest possible time.
This, he added, is the driving force behind is effort to persuade at least 30 Barisan Nasional MPs to switch camps immediately.
"The size and scale of the crossover he envisages is mind-boggling. Has there ever been an instance anywhere in the world where a government which has 58 seats more than the combined opposition is under the constant threat of imminent collapse simply because an individual - who is not even in Parliament - boasts continuously that a certain number of MPs are going to switch sides by a certain date?" he asked.
Anwar has declared his intention to contest in the Aug 26 by-election for the Permatang Pauh parliamentary seat which could pave the way for his return to Parliament after a 10-year hiatus.
The opposition leader's political career came to a grinding halt in 1998 when he was sacked as deputy premier and Umno deputy president.
However, after the March 8 polls, Anwar once again stamped his mark as a relevant political force in the country and public expressed his intention to become prime minister.
Have respect for the voters
Meanwhile, Chandra said it was this incessant drive to topple the government through crossovers that had created so much uncertainty in the country in the last few months.
"If the threat of crossovers hangs like a Sword of Damocles over the nations head, it is partly because many Malaysians know that Anwar as a BN and federal government leader at one time had played a pivotal role in the overthrow of the democratically elected PBS state government in Sabah in 1994," he said.
Chandra stressed that although Anwar had stated that his enticement did not involve money or other allurements, it would still be morally wrong for a legislator to cross over since it would be a betrayal of the voters trust.
"In a democracy, a legislator elected on a particular platform should return his mandate to the people and resign his seat before he switches sides. That is what respect for the dignity of the voter means," he said.
Chandra also said it was a pity that such 'despicable politics' has been condoned by so-called principled politicians and committed human rights activists around Anwar.
"They should have tried to convince him that it is more honourable to enter Putrajaya through the front door. This implies winning the 13th general election at the federal level and forming the government through legitimate, ethical means," he said.
Chandra said if Anwar was to enter Parliament after the Permatang Pauh by-election, he should try to bridge the gap that separated the Pakatan Rakyat parties and provide them with a unifying vision and programme of reform that would go beyond cliches and platitudes.
"One hopes that he will also, as opposition leader, establish a shadow cabinet that cajoles and coaxes the BN government to introduce much needed changes.
"This is what the people would want him to do. Anwar has no mandate to oust the democratically elected government of the day through the back door," he said.
I hope Chandra can stopped making comment on the fairness of the democratic system when it is never fair to start of with. It will just showed how narrow minded you are or you may be just another wolf hidding in the sheep skin for UMNO!

A nation in disgrace because of its disgraceful leaders who is sitting under the coconut shell! Pak HabisLAH and NAJIS!
The federal government was very upset when the US issued warnings about “due process fair play in the new Anwar Ibrahim trial, especially by the media.” Their caution and concern was only that Anwar be given a fair, transparent and open hearing in the yet unsubstantiated complaint.
I am frankly amused by the PM’s argument that we are a sovereign nation and have our own laws and therefore immune to international evaluation. And he implied that the US should not be interfering in Malaysian internal affairs. Frankly, that is not the issue. And this is a wrong argument. The real issue and cause for the warning, justifiably so, is the trial by the media and false accusations and assumptions being made by the leadership. In the international legal system, and based on our adopted standards, every person is innocent until proven guilty. Both Anwar and Saiful Bukhari Azlan are innocent until one is proven guilty, under our Malaysian laws. The issue is not whether sodomy is a crime or not. The problem is that all mainstream interpretations and arguments make Anwar look guilty and Saiful the ‘poor victim’. Why are not both given due and fair chances to prove their innocence or guilt? Both are adults and must be given a chance to defend their dignity and integrity.
Let me therefore make two comparisons to make my point. There were two reports made against two public figures in the recent past. One by Saiful against Anwar, and the other by Raja Petra Kamarudin against Rosmah Mansor and her two apparent partners. All parties must be seen as innocent by the law, until proven otherwise. What is amazing to me, and I suppose to any outsider observing Malaysia, and not just the US government, is that in the one case, the PM literally cleared one person of the potential crime, almost without an investigation, whereas, in the other case, the accused was treated like a criminal even by the police before the investigation was complete.
Watched globally
More ridiculously, the PM went further to declare that the deputy prime minister and his wife were not involved in the said case against the dead Mongolian lady. How does he know, when the case is still ongoing? To me, for now, only God knows.Even sovereign nations do not live in darkness or within the shades and shadows of justice, especially in the inter-networked world. Every action of every public individual is being observed and watched by the global community for standards of due process and whether just values are applied. Whether it is Robert Mugabe or former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, the world wants similar standards of justice to reign for the preservation and protection of human dignity. After all, this is the era of human rights and human dignity.
Is that not why we set up a Human Rights Council in Malaysia? The US system understands and appears to stand by these global standards, although their government too is far from perfect. They too have weak or corruptible human systems. But at least they have an almost impeccable system of separation of powers and due process jurisdictions between the legislative, executive, and judiciary. They have checks and balances that we do not yet seem to have. How else could we have had one leader who reigned so presidentially over all three of our systems, with almost absolute control and impunity in the last 20 years, especially since 1988?
The net result of that era of abuse of authority and power was the decline in our standards of justice and jurisprudence. We seem to have inherited a one-eyed view of justice. In Malaysia, the judicial system appears to keep one eye open and the other one shut. One can use either eye as the case may require! Regardless of which system of justice we follow, the burden of proof must belong within the courts and without interference of any external party, whether the Legislature or the Executive or even the Administration. In our system, we appear to have very corruptible systems, or actually, already corrupted systems as demonstrated by the Lingam tapes inquiry. Therefore, when the US government speaks against the backdrop of “such global standards of justice,” they are not speaking as one country, but rather on behalf of all citizens of the world who support the values and virtues of a good and healthy democracy.
Glass houses
In such matters, the sovereignty of nations is not the issue. Rather, we all live in glass houses and as much as we throw stones at others, we must expect them to throw stones at us. Why else would any sovereign nation go to the International Court of Justice to seek resolution over any border issue? Was our sovereignty sacrificed by this effort? Or, was this the more mature and civilised way to resolve an outstanding issue?It appears to me as a Malaysian citizen, as well as to global watchers, and especially those who respect and protect human dignity, is that Anwar Ibrahim appears to be a victim of various political intentions. No one is really sure who the real actors and perpetrators of the evil intentions are, but it has become obvious that they exist and appear to be pulling all the strings. If Malaysia really is genuinely concerned about global perceptions and our credibility as a sovereign nation, we should become fully transparent and invite international observers to follow and agree with the respective tests and procedures being applied without fear of favour. In this age of information, which is filled with knowledge and even wisdom, this is a typical case which need not be tried in public over the media. It could even be done in private but with international observers and global standards of investigation, if our real concern is for truth and justice to prevail.
But, instead, if we take a katak di bawah tempurung approach, wherein the coconut-shell becomes the limit of our sovereignty, the rest of the world will forever remain curious, and we could easily become the new pariah in the international arena of law and justice.At the end of the day, we can declare ourselves sovereign, but we remain so only when other brother states view us with equal respect and integrity. No state can be an island unto itself, within the large sea of nations and continents. That is why we have the United Nations as the final arbiter of truth and justice between nations.
Interestingly therefore, it comes as no surprise to me that the Human Rights Council of Malaysia may be downgraded based on the Paris Principles, for non-adherence to those very principles which define human rights and dignity. The sovereignty argument cannot protect us because human dignity of every person is given and preserved by the Creator Himself.

How can a country be under ruling of the 2 most corrupted individual in the whole country....Pak HabisLAH and Najis!
Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and his deputy Najib Abdul Razak will be asked to give statements to the Anti-Corruption Agency following a report lodged against them by an Umno man yesterday.
ACA director-general Ahmad Said Hamdan told reporters in Penang that the statements from the two top leaders would be taken soon. He did not specify when it would be done."All our investigations, which are facts-based, are carried out without fear or favour and in a transparent manner regardless of the person's status and our arrest track record speaks for itself," he said, as reported by the Star Online.Yesterday veteran Umno leader Mazlan Harun lodged the complaint against Abdullah and Najib - also the top two leaders in Umno - for alleged abuse of power.
He claimed that both Abdullah and Najib had abused government machineries to garner support among Umno members in a bid to sustain their positions in the coming party elections.The complaint was based on an open letter written by Umno Petaling Jaya Selatan division chief Zahar Hashim and addressed to the party's secretary-general, demanding that both Abdullah and Najib be disciplined for allegedly abusing their power.
Probe ongoing against Musa, Gani
The ACA director general also issued a warning to complainants about them disclosing the contents of their reports to the media.He said that such disclosure would jeopardise investigations."This is actually an offence under the Anti-Corruption Act."Action can be taken against the complainant if the report is not true or made with malice. We will not hesitate to charge the person in court," he said.Ahmad also said that investigations were underway on the report against Inspector-General of Police Musa Hassan and Attorney-General Abdul Gani Patail over Anwar Ibrahim's black-eye incident in 1998.Both Musa and Abdul Gani have been questioned by the agency following a complaint by Anwar that the duo had tampered with evidence 10 years' ago.Anwar was also summoned to the agency to give his statement.

MCA, Gerakan and SUPP...cheated the Chinese in 2004 and bullshit again now when UMNO secretly talk to PAS.. to form an Ultra-Islamic Count in Malaysia
I still remember in 2004, the MCA, Gerakan and SUPP moroons told chinese not to vote for opposition because the opposition coalition will form an Ultra -Islamic State because of PAS. And now you can see that all of them are just cowards and dogs to the UMNO when Abdullah anounced that UMNO is offering share of power with PAS......They just keep quiet...especially this elder shitty Ong Ka Chuan of MCA says he support Abdullah and just waiting for is instruction. He is indeed the most useless "person"(not fit to call leader...because he is appointed by his brother) we had ever met in Malaysian Chinese history. His ancestry and future generation will be cursed in hell for what demage he had done to his community and the country as a whole.
Malaysian should never vote for MCA, Gerakan and SUPP again in the rest of their life.
Malaysian should never vote for MCA, Gerakan and SUPP again in the rest of their life.
A true life of the Corrupter of the century Abdul Taib (means "Faeces" in Malay) bin Mahmud from state of Sarawak....published in Wikepedia
Pehin Sri Dr. Haji Abdul Taib bin Mahmud (born 21 May 1936 in Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia) is the current Chief Minister of Sarawak of Melanau descent.
Contents
Contents
Personal life and education
He undertook his early schooling at the St. Joseph's Schools in Miri and Kuching, before receiving a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Adelaide in South Australia in 1960.
Returning to Sarawak, he worked in the judiciary until 1963 when he joined the State Legislative Council of Sarawak, where he held various ministries in Sarawak and the Malaysian Parliament, before succeeding his uncle, Abdul Rahman Ya'kub, as the Chief Minister of Sarawak.
He is the father of Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib. He is better known as "Bai Mao"(白毛)in Chinese which means "White Hair". Among Malay speaking communities, he is known as "Pak Uban", which translates as "Old Man with White Hair". Being the Chief Minister of Sarawak for almost 27 years, he has successfully and securely made Sarawak as a kingdom of corruption.

Corruption and Sarawak's logging industry
Charges of deep corruption have surrounded Taib Mahmud on numerous occasions and the dominance of Sarawak's political elite including Taib Mahmud's family in the logging industry is well documented [1]. Most recently a foreign wire agency reported on March 29 that Taib has been implicated in a 1.1 billion yen (RM32 million) timber export kickbacks.[2] It said nine Japanese shipping companies, which transported timber from Sarawak, had allegedly failed to report some 1.1 billion yen in income over a period of up to seven years.The report claimed the money was paid as kickbacks to Sarawak officials via a Hong Kong agent linked to Taib and his family.
The results of the logging industry under Taib Mahmud is that less than 10% of Sarawak's primary forests remain, logging many of the ancestral lands of many of Sarawak's indigenous communities, despite their continued petitions and road blockades [3] where forceful dismantling has led to several deaths and regular violent coersion by the Malaysian army, police and logging company enforcers [4].
Ever since Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s anti-corruption programme saw the arrest of Eric Chia and Kasitah Gaddam, “Why only hunt ikan bilis in KL and Sabah? Why not also audit some bigger fish in Sarawak?” For example, many know that the Chief Minister (CM) of Sarawak since 1981, Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud’s family, has a rags to riches story. Abdul Taib Mahmud insists his family made their money via hard work in business. But many observers remain sceptical and wonder how his siblings and children came into all that wealth, both locally and overseas.
Born into impoverished circumstances in 1936, Abdul Taib Mahmud is an ethnic Muslim-Melanau who traces an aristocratic link to the Royal Court of Brunei. But since becoming CM, Taib has been previously described, at various times, by the international media in the following terms: He is “flamboyant with expensive tastes” and is said to have “purchased the piano of the late American showman Liberace for close to US$2 million”. He “lives in a well-guarded palatial home in Kuching and rides in a cream-coloured Rolls Royce. A dapper dresser, he is partial to double-breasted suits and sports a ring with a walnut-sized red gem surrounded by small diamonds”. Presently, he lives in a palatial private estate outside Kuching along Jalan Bako in a choice location called Demak Laut fronting the Sarawak river.
In the late-1980s, clients loyal to Taib collectively were estimated to control 1.6 million hectares of timber concessions. By 2000, Mahmud family members had major investments not only in Sarawak and Malaysia but also in other parts of the world. Taib Mahmud’s sons, Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib and Mahmud Abu Bekir Taib, are the two key directors of Cahya Mata Sarawak (CMS), a multi-million ringgit financial and infrastructure conglomerate listed on the KLSE that thrives because it receives lots of patronage projects from the Sarawak government via PPES Works, a CMS subsidiary company jointly owned with the State government. CMS also owns Bank Utama that engineered a reverse takeover of RHB Bank in 2003. And CMS continues to eye the Bakun mega-project.
Abdul Taib Mahmud’s spouse, Laila Taib, and his children are the majority shareholders of Sitehost Pty. Ltd., Australia, a company which owns the Adelaide Hilton Hotel. Company records dated December 2000 show them holding 95 percent of the company or 9.5 million fully paid up shares of Sitehost. Onn Mahmud (Taib Mahmud’s brother), Taib’s daughter Jamilah Hamidah Taib and her husband Sean Murray, are listed as director-shareholders of SAKTO Corporation, a major real estate operator of non-residential buildings in Ottawa, owning and managing over half a million square feet of prime office space with affiliate offices in the US, Asia, the UK and Australia. As well, they own SAKTO Development Corporation, a multi-million dollar development and construction company in Ottawa, while Jamilah is the sole director of SAKTO Investment Corporation.
Now, it may well be that the Mahmud family is one of the best and most astute business families in Malaysia. And more power to them on that account. But much of their known wealth has arisen during the tenure of Abdul Taib Mahmud as Sarawak CM. Is there then any wonder why there exists so much public scepticism about the sources of Abdul Taib Mahmud’s family wealth? Would not a transparent audit do well to quash such obviously unscrupulous rumours once and for all?
Corruption and Nepotism
In 2008, Mahmud gave his son Sulaiman a seat in the Malaysian parliament. After the son was elected, he was made a deputy federal minister despite not having any political experience. It is almost certain that the son would not even have a political career if the father was not the chief minister.
Mahmud's sister Roziah is one of the most powerful businesswoman in Sarawak with extensive holdings in property and timber business.
Mahmud's brother in law, Tan Sri Aziz Hussain, was appointed state secretary by Mahmud and when he retires, Mahmud appointed him executive director of Sarawak Energy and other companies.
Lot 1 Muara Tuang L.D (980ha), Lot 887 Samarahan LD (670HA), Lot 1230 Sedilu Gedong LD (5010HA) AND lot 1509 Bukar Sadong LD (3720ha) was alienated to a company called Lambang Sinar Emas (a company owned by Roziah Mahmud) on 26.05.2004. In 26.01.2005 the ownership of the company changed hand. Roziah stand to gain tens of millions of ringgit from this transaction.
Charges of deep corruption have surrounded Taib Mahmud on numerous occasions and the dominance of Sarawak's political elite including Taib Mahmud's family in the logging industry is well documented [1]. Most recently a foreign wire agency reported on March 29 that Taib has been implicated in a 1.1 billion yen (RM32 million) timber export kickbacks.[2] It said nine Japanese shipping companies, which transported timber from Sarawak, had allegedly failed to report some 1.1 billion yen in income over a period of up to seven years.The report claimed the money was paid as kickbacks to Sarawak officials via a Hong Kong agent linked to Taib and his family.
The results of the logging industry under Taib Mahmud is that less than 10% of Sarawak's primary forests remain, logging many of the ancestral lands of many of Sarawak's indigenous communities, despite their continued petitions and road blockades [3] where forceful dismantling has led to several deaths and regular violent coersion by the Malaysian army, police and logging company enforcers [4].
Ever since Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s anti-corruption programme saw the arrest of Eric Chia and Kasitah Gaddam, “Why only hunt ikan bilis in KL and Sabah? Why not also audit some bigger fish in Sarawak?” For example, many know that the Chief Minister (CM) of Sarawak since 1981, Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud’s family, has a rags to riches story. Abdul Taib Mahmud insists his family made their money via hard work in business. But many observers remain sceptical and wonder how his siblings and children came into all that wealth, both locally and overseas.
