Shall we talk about special attention from gomen or PM to help the Dayak as well expidate the development in Sarawak so that the life of Dayak is not too much behind other race and Development of Sarawak is not too much far behind from Malaya? Does the Dayak problem and Sarawak development is not come to the extend that we need speciall plan, attention and budget from the gomen?

If answer is yes, this is the Master Plan and Budget we shall seek from the gomen not a common master plan and budget that they discuss in parliament annually.

When the pass PM realise that Malay was lagging behind so badly from non-bumiputra in all field, they set up NEP, UiTM and so on. When the gomen see that our economy is in the miss in 1997, the gomen set up special task force and special budget to help our economy dragging into worst.

Here, I cannot see such thing cannot be done to Dayak whereby we see the Dayak are lagging behind badly. Even the basic facilty such as road, water supply, telephone line and electricity to the Dayak area along (within 5 KM ) the main road from Lundu to Lawas are still absent. What to say the whole Sarawak.

Do not tell me mega luxurious project like second bridge of Pulau Pinang and third highway in Malaya is more important than Dayak basic need.

In term of budget. I do not see Malaysia has a big problem to provide a basic aminities to Dayak such as proper road, clean water, god clinic, good school, telephone line, service centre, TV channel, proper house and etc. We are not going to ask the gomen to sponsor Dayak to the moon. We just ask for basic facility for survive or live. Even the UN listed this facility in the top priority of the gomen.

Or unless the gomen purposely put the Dayak/Sarawak lagging behind.

There are a lot of luxurious unnneccessary project that are least important than Dayak need that the gomen has sponsored now a day. Just limit or hold on the luxurious project like Bandar Iskandar, sport sponsorership, Second Bridge of Pulau Pinang and etc.

Projected these budgets to help the Dayak and develop the Sarawak. This is a matter of how we approach the gomen to turn unnecessary budget to our need or it is the matter of the gomen willingness to solve the Dayak problem NOT becos of the budget.

This is the voice we need from out MP in the KL not a speech to give 5K to long house.

Sarawakian has been helping the nation a lot in term of hornbill income to start the development in Malaya. Hundred billions of ringgit since we independent. Now is the time of Malaya to help hornbill.

Or unless, Malaya wants the hornbill income, drag the oil out from the sea until it dry before they leave Sarawak alone. Is that we Dayak waiting for?

In my previous post, I suggest all Dayak including DL, DB to utlize this plan by meeting with PM directly. If there is any Dayak YB wish to joint, is much-much better as they are can be the leader. At the end, this group can act such as a Special Dayak Task Force to safeguard the Dayak need.
Just go to see PM and discuss about Dayak problem, suggest some solution and ask some speciallity. From that meeting we can see our dissatification and satisfication of the new era. I am sure PM office welcome us rather we talk about 20 % oil royalty but cannot be used to solve the Dayak problem and continous politicking ourself regarding Dayak missy at the end we get nothing.

I can see that, now a day, Najib is seem the most friendly PM we have so far with Dayak. Take this chance.

Put political different aside for a moment or put your politic as it is in your mind. Avoid acting to the extend that this group campaign for each party, cos it can spoil the group. Concentrate with our discussion, bringing our problem and need to PM.

This blog or next DL blog can be used by both DL and DB to proceed with the arrangement.

Anang ngaga diri empu degil tauka nyumbung ka diri nyadi jaguh. Lemi ka ati, manah ngemaruh ka diri tang beri tinggi penemu enggau kerja ke manah ngatur bansa kitai. DB & DL tau berandau manah kediri ba peringkat anembiak redak sebedau mai tokoh diri empu, ngirup begulai belubah-lubah kena muai ati ke agi silau enggau panggan diri ke udah puas becheregi dalam blog tu sebedau ngaga atur ke panjai-besai dibai ngagai PM.

Nyadi enti bisi bala ba blog tu, rindu ka penemu tengahari bakatu tau ngepun ka pengawa. Serakup ka penemu DL enggau DB awak tau besatu mansang ka bansa kitai. Terus becheregi tauka beserekang penemu ukai utai ke manah. Terus nanam ati ensidan ngagai pangan diri ukai penemu ke patut diibun.

Tanan ati ke rindu begulai enggau panggan diri serta sinu, siru meda penusah kitai Dayak. Anang ngaga ketegal enda sama politic tauka enda sama party kitai enda oleh begulai enggau panggan diri ngaga atur mansang ka bansa kitai. Give and take to produce a constructive manner.

Bai meh paung burung Nendak, batu tuah batu belimpah. Unsai ka meh batu penchelap, batu lindap kena ngempung bansa kitai. Awak ka penyerakup kitai besai sebesai lalu kuat dipeda orang.

Anang nyimpan bungsu buyu enggai ka penyerakup kitai anggat, anang nyimpan kayu ketupung penangul jalai kitai mansang, anang ngibun batu kepapas pemechah bansa kitai.

Nyadi tu sekeda lalau ke diibun orang ke nyadi ketuai kitai dulu kelia laban sida disumpah antu nyadi ketuai ukai dipilih mensia. Lalau ke manah baka tu tau nyadi ka lalau kitai kemaiaharitu.

Cheer.

Interestingly, in today Borneo Post, 25th November,2009, are the following headlines:

1. Work hand in hand, says Taib. (Need for politicians, civil servants to work as one to deliver and get closer to people.)

2. Impossible boarding schools without bathrooms, says director. (State Education Director Datu Dr Julaihi Bujang said boarding schools must have proper bathrooms.)

3. Ex-Resident talks about her book ‘Prosperous Kuching’. (The writer Rodziah Morshidi said, “Every division had to come up with a development book.”)

4. 10MP promises better infrastructures: SS. (Sarawak is expected to experience major rural development in the Tenth Malaysia Plan.)

From the above, the MPs and State Assemblymen must ask themselves:

1. What roles do they play in the above? Have they participated in the planning and later implementing the plan.

2. Are the respective YB and his people going to monitor what are development projects for their constituencies and villages and get the money worth for the projects.

3. Are the MPs and State YBs, especially the dayak YBs, serious in their jobs – to monitor and ensure the delivery is conducted sincerely, properly, transparently and responsiblily.

God bless the rural YBs and people.

Thank you, friends.

I believe we have national and state master plans. Based on these master plans, the PM and CM present their budgets. The budgets should be based on plans in order to arrive at the budgets.

The question is: are the MPs and State Assemblymen aware, understood and able to translate the national and state plans and budgets into their own plans and budgets and inform their people at the various constituencies.

In the first place, I believe, it is the duties and responsibilities of MPs and State YBs to forward their plans and the funds required for consideration and inclusion in the national and state master plans and budgets. They do it in collaboration with the state administration and State Planning Unit.

It is for the above on their actions taken and participation, the MPs and State YBs must inform to the people of their plans or proposed plans.

It is equally the duties and responsibilities of the people and the Opposition to ask or question the MPs and state YBs of their actions or inactions, concerning the plans.

Yeah, who formulates the master plan is not important but is there a master plan for the whole state and for each and every division and constituency. Can the MPs and State YBs answer the people?

The MPs and State YBs are answerable to the people and the people must hold them responsible.

Just a point of view.

Regards and thank you.

I’ll say this much: follow the money trail, and find out how the National and State Budget was concocted.

Anyone can plan all they want, but it remains the budget allocation to the Ministries and how those budget will be disbursed and expended, that will determine if any of it would benefit the Dayak masses.Frankly, I could not find anything in the budget that would have suggested if there was foreward planning to uplift the Dayak lot.

And it should be said that there is hardly anything in the State legislative agenda to review existing land development policies that has stunted Dayak capacity building – as well as generating 200+ legal suits.

A deliberate policy to sideline Dayak or sheer incompetence ?

In any case, better planning, administration, management … on the part of YBs, are only tools to execute public policy.

And given that many Dayak MPs and ADUNs appear to agree to follow all BN policy without any question,change can only be affected by the top leadership in BN: it is a fallacy to assume policy making is derived from the ground up – with inputs from ordinary MPs and ADUNs.

It therefore stand to reason, that no MPs or ADUNs would have any development plan for their constituency, other than those that has been planned for them – and those masters plans are held in various ministries and depts.

Little wonder, the YBs would come bearing MRP gifts – and not much more. They can’t be saying anything about specific plans – if they are not even party to the formulation, in the first place.

This article is remind me to go back to training school to teach our YB how to do the work planning, work schedule, work program, action plan, coordination and etc. I do not like to put our YB in childish attitude to do all such thing for establishment of constituency development blue print.

If we talk about Tun Jugah, Francis Umpau, Ngipa Bato even Tawi Seli, it may be relevant, but our YB now a day are come from graduate and educated group.

For me, our YB has master plan or not is not the question. The question is whether they eager to do it in that way or not. In this situation, we need to bring a rotan to hit their battock, chasing them like a mum chase their kit, so that they can move and do it right away.

Shall we we need it, we shall ask the gomen to start conduct the course or training on how to do, implement and coordinate all this planning. After the training they can go to their area and start the program.

Any way this is a good idea. But I prefer the PM and CM development blue print for East Malaysia and for Dayak in particular. The PM and CM master plan to develop East Malaysia more faster so that our development in Sabah-Sarawak is the same standard as Malaya. The PM and CM master plan to upgrade the Dayak standard of living, so that we live in the same standard with other races, where is Dayak now a day is so far behind other races in all field. Master plan of PM and CM to put Dayak actively involve in Nation Building, National and International Economy, politic and all field.

I am eager to see this plan if any. I hope all Dayak are work together to draft, study, analysis, implement and coordinate this plan, The PM and CM Master Plan for Dayak.

Cheer.

What are the federal-list items a Member of Parliament is responsible for to his or her constituents?

He or she is responsible, just to mention a few, the following federal-list items:

1. Security and safety.
2. Health.
3. Education.
4. Rural Industries and Development.
5. Women, Families and Welfare.
6. Housing.
7. Agriculture.
8. Oil & Gas.
9. Infra-structures.
10. Finance.

Are the villagers happy with the housing, electricity, water provided for them?

Are the villagers getting enough training on agriculture, rural industries, health and security to better equipped themselves to work their lands and progress in the society and in the State of Sarawak?

Is the MP able to fight or bid for the villagers the required fund to build educational and training institutions, hospitals/clinics, police stations, houses for the poor, widows, retirees, ex-servicemen and OKU, etc,etc?

Ask yourselves the most important QUESTION you should dare ask your MP is what?

Is the important question is:

“YB, can you tell us what have you done for us, all these years?”

God bless your children and your children’s children.

A Member of Parliament is elected by you for a period of 4 to 5 years.

Have you wonder in that period of time, 4 to 5 years, what he has done for you.

Take Lubok Antu parliamentary constituency as an example. For the past 30 years, what had the previous MPs and the present MP done for the people in that constituency? Have the MPs fulfilled their election promises and improved the lives of the people significantly?

Are the people holding the MPs responsible for their promises? Have the people started demanding now for the promises of the MPs or MP to be fulfilled.

It is responsibility of all concerned to demand the MP to fulfilled his promises, and that include the BN supporters, PR supporters and the ordinary men in the longhouse or men from that constituency who are now working in towns.

The MP should be held responsible, if he is doing nothing. He cannot just be let off lightly. He should explain himself and if needed be, he should apologise to the people for failing them. And he should be gracious to resign. If he is doing great and much, he should be appreciated and congratulated.

God bless each and every constituency.

The ball is at our feet – the people who are living here in Sarawak, in all the constituencies and in each constituency, the various villages or townships.

The BN and the Opposition can fight their guts out but it is the people who must control their own destiny, whether you are a party member or not and whether you are on one or the other side of the divide.

My view is the people must take charge and ensure the fight, if any between the parties, do not hinder the development of their areas or villages.

The people must fight with ONE VOICE and ONE MIND for development to improve their livelihood and their lives.

Please focus on the well-being and welfare of the people first. Remember ‘Performance Now’ is the second part of the PM’s battle cry. 1Malaysia is the first part.

Focus and fight for the best deal for the people.

God bless everyone.

‘Self sucess claiming’ (ngambu dengah orang)
The act of claiming what others has done sucessfully to be yours is a confusin game. This is what is still going on today in most constituencies politicians confusing the voters.
If the opposition proposed a good idea to develope the constituency, the idea is then supported any initialize by the BN, then BN would say it is their idea and sucess, thus giving advantage to them in their political game. If the BN give project only after an opposition has voiced the problem, then the opposition would say it is because of them that the govern take action, so the advantage would go to them. This political puzzle is going on. Project given from MP fund can be claimed by ADUN as from him/her.
If this game is not terminated, any proposal/plan to develope each constituency cannot exposed beforehand.

In politic a politician would do anything to his/her favour, twisting facts and factors.
