DAP to ‘sacrifice’ seats for Malay (Dayak) candidates

Taken from Free Malaysia Today

Admin:

Will DAP Sarawak “sacrifice” safe seat for Dayak candidate in Sarawak? Or is DAP Dayak candidate strong enough to stand their own ground to win some seats in Sarawak? Is DAP Sarawak able to think beyond what is inside their box? We will wait and see. This is a golden opportunity for DAP to gain credibility among the Dayak to encourage them to join DAP.

FMT Staff

 | January 3, 2012

Party leaders have been reportedly meeting with “Malay opinion-makers in small closed-door discussions”.

KUALA LUMPUR: Speculation is rife that DAP will ‘sacrifice’ 10 of its safe seats for its new Malay members.

Sources said although no ‘conclusive decisions’ have been made, the party leaders were discussing matters with potential candidates.

‘Basically DAP will sacrifice its safe seats as a goodwill to its Malay candidates.The objective is to show that the party is not anti-Malay,” said the source.

DAP is apparently aiming to field their ‘winnable’ Malay candidates in parliamentary seats.

“From what we know, the party has identified seven parliamentary seats for their winnable Malay candidates. The others are state seats. Some may contest in both seats.

“But this is still being decided,” said the source.

Post 2008 general election, DAP has been targeting ‘thinking’ Malays to increase its support within the community.

The party is desperately wanting to free itself from its image of representing only the Chinese community.

Currently with DAP are former Transperancy International Malaysia chairman Tunku Abdul Aziz Ibrahim and Zairil Johari, son of former education minister Khir Johari.

Zahril together with DAP youth chief Anthony Loke and party strategist Liew Chin Tong have been tasked with wooing selected Malays.

A coup for DAP

Party leaders have been reportedly meeting with “Malay opinion-makers in small closed-door discussions dealing with issues concerning Islamic state, hudud and bumiputera affirmative action”.

Yesterday the party scored a coup. Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak’s former Pekan division information chief Mohd Ariff Sabri Aziz and Negeri Sembilan Umno veteran Aspan Alias joined the party.

Ariff, a former Pulau Manis state assemblyman was with Najib until 2004.

It is also learnt that former Umno minister Zaid Ibrahim will also be contesting under a DAP banner. It is likely that he will be fielded in an urban seat.

Zaid had last month declared that Kita, his party, will not contest in the general election but would instead throw its support behind Pakatan Rakyat.

Confirming rumours of his move to DAP, Ariff said yesterday: “Yes, that is what we are doing (joining DAP). I am impressed by DAP. They are principled, I like their professionalism.

“Don’t read our move as blasphemous or treasonable. In DAP I can speak on the plight of the displaced and disowned Malays with more energy than allowed of in Umno.

“Umno has turned its back on corruption and abuse of political office. DAP abhors these traits. To me these are are attractive propositions. As a Muslim, we are changing wadah not aqidah.”

‘No decisions yet’

Both Ariff and Aspan have been highly critical of Umno and Barisan Nasional’s mindless plundering and abuse of power.

Their move has stirred speculations over where the duo will contest.

Whilst rumours are that they will be fielded in Negeri Sembilan and Pahang respectively, political sources said no “conclusive decisions” have been made.

“The aim is to ensure the candidate wins and we will be careful where we place them. It may or may not be in their respective states,” said an observer.

Pahang has 14 parliamentary seats. The seats are Cameron Highlands (MIC-BN), Lipis (Umno-BN), Raub (MCA-BN), Jerantut (Umno-BN), Indera Mahkota (PKR-Pakatan Rakyat), Kuantan (PKR-Pakatan Rakyat), Pekan (Umno-BN), Maran (Umno-BN), Kuala Krau (Umno-BN), Temerloh (Umno-BN), Bentong (MCA-BN), Bera (Umno-BN) and Rompin (Umno-BN)

Word is that BN could only retain nine of the 14 parliamentary seats in Pahang.

BN is likely to lose in Cameron Highlands, Jerantut, Raub and Bentong. Also in jeopardy is the Bera and Termerloh seats.

Meanwhile BN is also tipped to lose more seats in Negeri Sembilan. Currently DAP holds two out of the current eight parliamentary seats. The seats are Rasah held by DAP Youth chief Anthony Loke and Seremban MP John Fernandez. Teluk Kemang is held by PKR’s Kamarul Baharin Abbas.

The plights of Kapit

Written by: Dr.John Brian Anthony

I went to Kapit recently to bring forward the Dayak initiative to join and support DAP. The response was overwhelming and I was pleasantly surprise because Kapit is the heart land of Dayak and BN has won the Kapit MP seats without contest twice.

Poor essential services for Kapit

Kapit has developed to some extent. The waterfront scenery has changed somewhat since I was last in Kapit 20 years ago. The town remained almost stagnant. The shop rental of a four storey is $14500.00 even higher then most commercial centre in Malaya. Tye services like telephone line being provided to shophouses is not available. Therefor the cost of telephone installation is very high. It is also very difficult to install water and electricity. It means Kapit suffer shortage of shops availability and the basic infra – structure cost is extremely high.

The cause of such scenario might be because there is no connecting road to Kapit. A school teacher mentioned that Belaga has better goods for sale when compared to Kapit because Belaga is still accessible by logging road but not Kapit. The boat fare from Sibu to Kapit is $30.00.So for those working in town with a daily wage of $30.00 they  would have to earn 2 days pay before he can make  to and from Kapit. The bus fare from Kuching to Sibu is only $35.00. Make that comparison then you know why BN is not helping the people of Kapit to grow.

Government Service

I was told that key civil servants do not bring their family to Kapit. Maybe they may not want to send their children to school in Kapit. Usually these civil servants rush home late Friday afternoon and come back early Monday morning. Literally, the civil servant only work 4 days a week because half of Friday and half of Monday is taken up by traveling in the boat to and from Kapit. Read more

DAP covering new ground in Dayak areas

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

Election preparation is always tough and tiring. For DAP to contest in semi-urban areas and rural Dayak areas would be something new but still a welcome challenge. The potential to win is great and this can only be achieved through hard work and contribution from those who wanted to see change in Sarawak.

Dayak issues need to be raised in Parliament

Do you want to see Dayak issues and needs brought up in Parliament so that the Federal Government can act on it? Do you think that MP like Nyalau, Mesir Kujat etc dare to talk about Dayak issues? If Dayak issues is not brought up in Parliament then how do you think that the Federal government can pay attention and solve the problem. Are our MP doing their work?

Did you see the BN budget helpful to Dayak or can help Dayak solve their problem? National cow project can be given Rm$250 million,yet to survey our NCR land we only got RM$20 million. There was a promised of another $60 million but then we do not know whether that has been delivered.

We need to fight for change

Do you want to see a change in Federal Government policies towards Sarawak? How can that happen? It can only happen if Putra Jaya is won by PR. In Sarawak the State Government allocate rm3.47 million to solve hard core poor problem. Do you think that is enough?. PR promised rm1billion to jump start Dayak socio-economic progress when it takes over Putra Jaya. If Dayak can take action to vote an alternative government then Dayak have a chance to move forward. Otherwise we will have snail pace progress provided by BN. We can only see the natural wealth of Sarawak taken by BN cronies leaving the Dayak poor without clean water, no electricity, poor rural schools and a transport using river system that was used since the Brooke rule. Dayak are made poor by our own YBs.

If you think you do not want to see Dayak lag behind in all field you must take action to vote out BN. To change the government begin with you. Your vote is for the future of Sarawak and not for MRP. Read more

The Game Taib play to weaken Dayak

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

You all now know that SPDP 5 is a foregone conclusion – they are to be kick out of the party and not given the chance to contest again starting from Tiki in Mas Gading.

Then we have SUPP fighting one another and literally burn down their own party. There is little possibility that SUPP will recover in time for the next election. To my mind most of the urban MP seats will be taken by DAP.

SPDP will also be struggling as supporters on the ground take side. BARAM is a good example where unsporting YB like Entri bin Abdullah will try to upset Jacob Sagah. How about Mas Gading where Peter Nansian has a say on who he would like to see represent Mas Gading. Tiki Lafe will be replaced and it is expected that die hard Tiki and Peter Nansian supporter will be voting against SPDP new candidate. Maybe it is better to give the seat away to DAP.

Who cause SUPP and SPDP to weaken?

Taib asked this question: “I do not know what Chinese want? They want business I give them, they want political power I gave them – what is that they really want? The Chinese told Taib they DO NOT WANT HIM but Taib ignore their request. For Taib it is impossible for him to step down at SUPP request after all he is the leader of PBB. Taib’s party only want Taib but insist that Taib carry on. Now SUPP suffers because of Taib’s arrogance. Read more

Dayak and DAP

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

There are TWO schools of thoughts on this. One is to treat DAP as “racial enemy” following the lead of UMNO and the other is we Dayak should shift our support to DAP for obvious advantage of Chinese and Dayak combine make the most numbers in Sarawak and also Dayak and Chinese is a more natural team to go it together and form the next Government in Sarawak.

Sarawak is a unique situation

Many of us held on to the idea of Sarawak for Sarawakian only. Many more hold on to the perception that whatever Chinese is bad because of our daily experience in their way of dealing with us. It really depend on us in that if we know what we are looking for and know what to do we will not get cheated time and again. It is not right to blame others for our weakness but we must step up our effort to adapt and improve our selves so that we can be in equal footing with others.

The Malay Muslim should also be with us but following the practice of “majority” rule they must not play a dominant role in Sarawak. As it is, the Malay Muslim is leading Sarawak and majority Dayak and Chinese are led by minority. In Penang for example, Chinese rule Penang. In Kelantan, Trengganu etc Malay rule the States because they are majority. Except in Sarawak the small minority rule Sarawak.

Can We Change this situation

Of course we can and we should. We can do this by adopting a new way of thinking by allowing Dayak and Chinese share the same political platform. In this case, that platform is DAP. Read more

SPDP sacked Entri bin Abdullah

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

Some of you asked for my comment on the sacking of Entri bin Abdullah from SPDP. Below is Entri Abdullah statement copied from The Star newspaper.

Entri bin Abdullah Statement

“Datuk Sylvester Entri Muran is adamant that he is still authorised to represent the government in the district of Marudi.

The former SPDP vice-president said the party had no right to interfere in the affairs of his constituency.

“I was elected as the Barisan Nasional representative for Marudi by supporters of Barisan Nasional. I was not elected by the SPDP supreme council. Whether I am in or out of SPDP, it does not matter,” he said yesterday when asked on his status following his expulsion from the party on Friday.

“I will from now on, discharge my duties in Marudi under the Barisan leadership led by Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

“I will also continue to function as an assistant state minister, as appointed by the Chief Minister. I will carry out my duties and obtain my directives from the top Barisan leaders,” the partyless Entri said in response to a party official’s view that he should give up the right to use the development funds given to his constituency”.

My first impression

Entri Bin Abdullah sounded lost and very confused. It is a fact that SPDP is a component party of BN and Marudi is thus held by SPDP on behalf of BN. Entri Abdullah is expendable as he is just an appointed representative of BN but elected by the voters who supported BN policies and ideals. No way did Entri Abdullah “owned” Marudi constituency with all due respect to him. Read more

Tan Sri Jabu suppress Dayak progress

Written by: Dr John Brian Anthony

It is not good to cite a specific Dayak leader name and accused him of the main reason why Dayak do not progress as they should. What choice is there left when most Dayak is holding on to the same perception and it is not fair to include others.

Some evidences of Jabu helplessness

SAlCRA : Jabu badly wanted to be recognized as the man who leads Dayak out of poverty. Just a few days ago he even attacked the DAP as the stumbling block of Dayak progress through JV in Kanowit. The land owners has come out to rebut Jabu that after 15 years the land owners has not received any dividend. The land owners even stated that they are taking legal action against the JV and will pull out of the JV.

Agriculture Training Centre

This all important ATC was closed for about 10 years and no reason was given. Within the same period the BN Government went on a rampage to grab and rob Dayak of their NCR land. It almost seemed that the BN Government close the ATC on purpose so that the Dayak slow down their progress in commercial agriculture. Seedlings, farm chemicals and fertilizer subsidy were cut. There was no replanting of new rubber trees and also padi planting scheme never got to improve. Read more

The Dayak Consultative Council in Miri on Saturday attracted both ruling and Opposition politicians. Dr John Brian tells RFS the key demands of the Council of which land tenure is top on its priority list.

A Sibuti villager laments that his community had been waiting for their compensation for land taken away by the government since 1990s.

RFS catches up with PKR vice president N. Surendran for his views on the latest dirty politics of Umno; this time with the gun trained at its top leader, Prime Minister Najib Razak, with a book detailing Najib’s follies.

Dr John Brian praises the alternative budget with its emphasis on rural education as a means to enable the Dayaks to catch up with the other races of the country.

And Six Malaysians overseas scored a small victory in getting the Kuala Lumpur High Court to grant them leave to appeal against the Election Commission for not granting them postal vote rights.

The establishment of Dayak Welfare Fund

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

The proposal to create a Dayak Welfare Fund was contained in the Pakatan Rakyat Alternative Budget. In the DUN, the YBs seemed to be debating on TWO budgets, (1) the BN Budget and (2) the Pakatan Rakyat Budget. This is a very healthy practice because for the first time BN is seeing that there are other ideas beside their own on ways to move Sarawak budget.

Facts sheet about poverty level in Sarawak from (2006-June 2011) Source: Gov’t Staistics

There are 55,975 hardcore poor identified in Sarawak. out of these, 27,902 or 49% are earning less then $520 per month. Out of the total hardcore poor numbers, 47.8% are IBAN. 20% are Malay, 10.5% are Orang Ulu, 9.8% are Bidayuh, 7% Melanau and others 2.4%.

If you understand this fact and if the BN Government is responsible enough then it should create a budget that would focus on helping the weakest community economically in Sarawak. It is not as if the Iban are not supporting the BN Government but it seems that BN Government keep the Iban poor for ease of control over their vote.

What has the Iban YBs in the DUN have to say about these figures and what will they do about it? Read more

Annoucement of DCC Brain Storming session

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

This is an invitation to all Dayak who are interested to attend DCC Brain storming session in KL on the 3rd of Dec. The brainstorming will focus on what need to be done in preparation for the coming PRU 13 election.

I am interested to know whether some of you would be interested to contribute ideas towards the preparation for the election in KL. This same brain stroming session could also be organised in Sarawak in one of the major town. The more brain we can put together the lighter and more accurate and effective would be our election strategies to win in Dayak areas for PR.

Your views on the same is highly appreciated. To those who would like to contact me directly or Duwen Babat as the appointed Secretary for DCC you can do so through (JBA 0122803952 or Duwen at 0193217363)

I do appreciate your courage and commitment to PR success through WALK the TALK.

Pakatan Rakyat candidate for SENATOR

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

I felt awkward in writing this article because I am a subject matter to the whole event. The purpose of this writing is to share the meaning of this event and also the sort of experience I gained from the event.

What is a SENATOR?

For those who wanted to know WHAT is the position of SENATOR  in a simple explanation he is a member of the Upper House of Parliament. SENATOR is involved in approving law that is passed by Parliament. A Senator being part of Parliament could be appointed as Federal Minister as in Idris Jala. A Senator need not be a member of a political party as some are appointed from specific interest group for example those that represent the “Disable”.

A Senator representing a State is elected by members of the DUN. In Sarawak, all Senators are from BN component parties because they hold majority in DUN. In Selangor, Penang and other Pakatan Rakyat States, the senators are from Pakatan Rakyat as they form the majority in their respective DUN.

Election of Senator by Sarawak DUN

In Sarawak never before has a BN candidate for Senatorbeen being challenged by the Opposition. The outcome of the election by DUN of a Senator for Sarawak is therefor a foregone conclusion that BN will win even before the voting start. However the outcome of 50 votes for Lihan Jok and 15 votes for John Brian is interesting as it means that both BN and PR are united behind their respective candidate.

A very interesting action by the Independent DUN member of Pelagus need to be understood. ADUN Pelagus is an Independent but is BN friendly. In this Senator election he chose to abstain which in actual fact mean he did not follow BN voting pattern. Read more
