Blind and Biased Judges

Taken from The Malaysian Insider

Dayakbaru:

Former Court of Appeal Judge NK Chan made a blistering attack on some judges who he says are not competent and biased towards UMNO led Government.

Many of us Dayakbaru might think that this is happening in Malaya only. This is not true. It can also happen in Sarawak and Sabah too even though we have a different Chief Justice.

We Dayak have many land cases awaiting hearing. We may get incompetent judges to preside over the case, a judge who has little knowledge of our ADAT and CULTURE. We can also have judges that are totally bias for the government and therefore would not see the difference between justice and injustice.

Dayakbaru are however thankful that some important cases has been decided in favor of recognizing natives rights over their land despite the government effort to extinguish such rights.

We must stay vigilant over biased judgment and injustice for Dayak. Our community from now on must respond strongly over bias judgment and injustice done to us through the judiciary. It is about time we consider going into the street to fight and draw attention to our rights in a democratic country. Read more

JVC Model is contractual relationship

Taken from article by Assoc Prof Ramy Bulan

Dayakbaru:

Why did the government introduce a law : map making by the communities could be an offence when the government herself refuse to survey native land?

Don’t you think that the government is creating “bad law” to deprive the Dayak of their land heritage?

Change WE Must

LCDA is the native trustee and has clear fiduciary duty to protect the rights of natives

This means that, when native customary landowners surrender their rights to the LCDA as trustees, there is a clear fiduciary duty to protect the rights of the vulnerable right holders. A government agency that takes on the duties of a trustee under a commercial arrangement becomes a ‘trustees twice over’ (Finn 1992: 243), particularly where the vulnerable landowners depend on it to negotiate the best terms on their behalf (Lehane 1985: 98).

JVC model is contractual relationship

In the present JVC model, the relationship between the corporate developer and government agency (trustee) is contractual. Does a fiduciary relationship exist between them? It is suggested that the mutual confidence between the JVC and the LCDA (or its agents), in appropriate circumstances, does not exclude the possibility of a fiduciary relationship.

The Malaysian Federal Court has already held that the relationship between parties in a joint venture agreement is a fiduciary relationship. Thus, if a right is not sustainable in breach of contract, there may be an avenue in equity where there is a breach of the fiduciary obligation. Read more

Sarawak JVC land development is “facilitative commercial trust”

Taken from article by Assoc Prof Ramy Bulan

Dayakbaru:

Please take note that the Agong is to protects the natives of Sabah and Sarawak under the Federal constitution. (Should we send a memorandum to the Agong on Sarawak Government land grab policies?) Please read the article slowly to understand better our JVC Konsep Baru model.

The Trust and Native Customary Land Development

This ‘new model’ JVC is a type of development trust which is a ‘facilitative commercial trust’ (Bryan 2001). Creating a trust circumvents the requirements for a person or persons to be a party to the contract in order to enforce it. A third party cannot enforce the contract but he may enforce a trust even though he was not party to it. The beneficiaries include persons whose names appear in the appendix of the trust deed, their respective heirs, successors in titles, executors, administrators, personal representatives, trustees and any other person claiming title or interest in the name or on behalf of the native customary owners.

The trust does away from the need to equally contribute equally in order to share equally in the profit

The trust also does away with the need to get into a partnership that will require the parties to contribute equally in order to share equally in the profits (Ladbury 1987). Most native landowners do not have the financial means to develop the land, so vesting the land in trustees is arguably one of the most appropriate mechanisms that can be used. Be that as it may, the intrinsic nature of native customary rights could give rise to problems peculiar to this kind of trust. Read more

SKIM MUNOH RAYAT – PART II

Written by gkm2020

Nuju Unggal John Jamban and other DL,

I refer to your comment: John Jamban on March 10th, 2010 8:18 am

Hello Kaban Bloggers,

……BUT THEN MOST DB GROUP DO NOT AGREE TO IBAN CM DONE IN THE PAST……BUT NOW DB ….. WHERE IS DB VERSION OF LAND DEVELOPMENT….PLEASE JUST LIST YOUR PROPOSAL HERE. IT IS EASY TO CRITIZE RATHER THAN IMPLEMENT.

Nya aja kaban…

My Personal Opinion,

Honestly the current NCR Scheme is truly a “BOGUS SCHEME” known as “SKIM MUNOH RAYAT” with so many proven negative factors and legal implications. Can you explain why there are more than 100 NCR Land legal cases on-going in the court right now?

Laboh bekeberai air mata meda pemedis sereta pemerinsa kitai Iban/Dayak diayah ulih “Perintah Munoh Rayat”

Iban natives of Sungai Sekabai are shocked after the destruction of their village by “Perintah Munoh Rayat”  authorities; in the center headman Nor anak Nyaway. Open your eyes wide and take a look how smart are these rural yet unfortunate folks when compare to Taib and our current Dayak YBs dressing? 47 years of “buah kepayang merdeka”??

Therefore, it’s recommended that such ‘BN New NCR Development Scheme Concept’ shall be dropped and rejected for good. After all, majorities of the landowners are already on the loosing end ie with your ‘win-lose business model’ and with a much questionable ‘transferable land concession rights’ to another third or fourth parties unethical business model.

DAYAK – UNDERSTAND YOUR “NATIVE RIGHTS” PART I

Written by gkm2020

Updated: 4/3/2010

You’re nothing if you’re landless

As Native, we can’t blame anyone if we all end up landless and be forced to seek in the littering urban areas as ‘Bangsa Orang Setinggan Sarawak’ (BOSS) and/or ‘slump dog’.  We still have time to acknowledge our “Native Rights”. If we failed to plan, we plan to fail.

Ignorance of the law is no excuse and inaction in the face of encroachments onto our land is the sure path to landlessness. We may have many NGOs but how effective and active are these organization today?

CHANGE WITHIN DAYAKBARU

Written by gkm2020

My personal opinion,

Change Within DayakBaru – We Change Our World

“DayakBaru” (DB) is not ‘baru’ but for us, Bansa Dayak, (the old and the new generations must come together as ‘1Bansa’) to enhance our creativity and/or share a ‘new way’ of thinking methodology; the Rethinking Model – the ‘baru’ ways in facing the challenges we confronted today.

When confronted with a new challenge (the good, the bad and the ugly), you must first need to determine if your work climate is reactive or in a proactive mode. In most cases you would probably know. The key to success is to know yourself.

But take a moment to assess the situation and carefully analyze it. Changes may have occurred that will contaminate the issue. And we all have seen among us probably some ‘contaminators’ are present here too in this blog. Read more

Dayak – Armed Forces University is looking for You

Taken from Borneo Post

Dayakbaru:

Our YBs are sometime too full of “shit” that they cannot even see the opportunities for Dayak entering the Military College University to serve the country.

If the YB has done  a good job by communicating this info, then is the Military College University intakes based on “racial” preference again to complete the Malay agenda? We have too much experience in this false hope and I do hope that arm are more honest and less politicking.

Iron Fist – acting like “intelligence Agent”

Why is JASA not explaining such info into the long house and engage in drinking coffee and solicit information to undermine the Opposition. Funny thing is when Opposite organized ceramah then JASA would organized one to next to the Opposition to put fear on those who attend the function.

Kemas will walk around with camera etc to put fear on the people to discourage them to listen to the Opposition views. What is all this – this is called the IRON FIST of BN. They are eager to put Opposition into problems.

Now read the article below and see whether you want Dayak Youth to join the Armed Forces. Hopefully our youth can climb up to a General Rank – after 47 years in Malaysia, Dayak have never got into a General post. Is that a fair representation of the various races in the Armed Forces? Read more

ADAT PART II – UNDERSTAND OUR LEGAL USUFRUCT RIGHT

Written by gkm2020

Updated: 15/2/2010

How are Dayaks related to the native of Borneo?

To understand your native origins, you need to understand your history;

  • If you do not have ‘usufruct right’ then you’re not the indigenous people or native of Borneo.
  • If your ancestors sleep in this land then you’re the native children of this land.
  • If you and your ancestor do not have any ‘Adat’ and/or ‘abi-besi’ then you’re not a native. (Adat herein means a native custom or body of native customs or Adat communities or Adat law communities, many others of the indigenous peoples of Borneo which lawful effect has not been given thereto under any written law and shall be deemed to include the tradition and culture of the natives.)
  • If your ancestor had not farmed the lands of Borneo before the British Colonial and the Federation of Malaysia then you’re not a native.

So, long before any European and/or ‘Melayu Raya’ arrived in “Borneo Island” the Bansa Dayak are native peoples who had been living in their own distinct societies with their own laws, customs (referred to as Adat) and economies for thousands of years. Read more

Malaysia is made up of 3 countries as equal partner

There is no 13 States in Malaysia

There are 11 Federated Malay States in Malaya. Sabah and Sarawak are NOT  in the same category of Malacca, Johore, Selangor etc. Sabah and Sabah are independent countries before forming Malaysia.

Who says that there was no agreement when Malaysia was formed? Do you really think that Sabah and Sarawak are so silly so as to form Malaysia without an agreement. Most people in Malaya ( i will not refer to Malaya as West Malaysia anymore from now on) were told lies in school and wrong facts of history to create the impression that Sabah and Sarawak are of the same status as the Malay State.

What is the meaning of all these “wrongs”.

Happenings

Events are coming in fast and strong in Malaysia under Najib. This cannot just happened but it must have a cause and effects. What is “wrong” now is the government is trying to hide all these cause and effect and now Malaysian see the “deceit and lies”.

In Dayakbaru you can see the lies and deceit of MJC, John Jamban, Dayaklama, Deo et al. These government people has no conscience over what they say or project as long as they can stay in power.

Wrong 1:  – PKFZ

The Operational Executive were brought to court. With that amount of money being swindle from the government, the involvement has to be from the top. Kuala Demensi BOSS – Bintulu MP and Chairman of BN Backbencher club is still free. His accusation of $10million given to MCA Ong Tee Kiat do not seemed to be investigated.
