(古晋12日讯)一家七口因家庭纠纷,陷入无家可归的窘境,被迫居住在废墟、环境恶劣的店屋!

65岁的朱乃迪与53岁的妻子茜蒂姗达,因与家中排行第3的女儿闹纠纷,被迫与长女、幼女与女婿,还有两名仅有1岁11个月及10个月大的孙女,搬离原本已安居超过20年的住家,迁至位于晋连路7哩废弃的店屋居住。

原本在甘榜哈芝巴基的住家目前只有三女一家人居住。朱乃迪与女婿是从事劳工行业,收入不稳定,逼于无奈下,才选择废墟的店屋作为居所。

朱乃迪与茜蒂姗达其实育有5名子女,及领养一名女儿,但却不了解其他子女的住处。

他们居住长达3个月的店屋,可说是只有一片屋顶遮风挡雨,因店屋四周值钱的设施,如窗与门已被偷光,而且地板还布满青苔、夜间还成为瘾君子聚集的天堂,环境极不安全。

一家七口今日获得巴达旺市议会主席罗克强、人联党甘榜哈芝巴基单位及古晋社会福利局志愿团体的协助,暂时安顿在位于砂督的临时庇护所(Anjung Singgah)。

Extended roof canopy at 7th Mile Town Square to be ready by May

Extended roof canopy at 7th Mile Town Square to be ready by May


KUCHING, Feb 11: Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) is currently extending the roof canopy at 7th Mile Town Square in Kota Sentosa. Sarawak United Peoples’ Party (SUPP) Kota Sentosa Branch chairman Wilfred Yap recently attended a simple ceremony to erect the signboard at the site to inform the business community and residents that the contractor for the upgrading work had been appointed.

 The RM300,000 project is scheduled for completion in May this year. Yap, who is also SUPP Public Complaints Bureau chief, said he would monitor the upgrading work to ensure they are done to the satisfaction of all stakeholders.

He thanked Minister of Local Government and Housing Datuk Dr Sim Kui Hian and MPP chairman Lo Khere Chiang for helping in securing funding from the state government after the matter was raised by SUPP Kota Sentosa Branch and the bureau on behalf of the business community and residents of Kota Sentosa. — DayakDaily

KUCHING: The Welfare Department and Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) Batu Kitang and Sentosa recently came to the aid of odd job worker Junaidi Abdullah, 65 and his family.

They helped Junaidi , his wife Siti Sa’adah, 53, daughters Siti Mariam 32, Siti Jamayah,20, Siti’s husband Aman Shah Jimmy, 24, and Siti’s daughters aged 23 months and 10 months move out from the top floor of an abandoned building at Kota Sentosa to a temporary shelter at Satok.

Jamaiyah Sulaiman from the Welfare Department said the department would be helping the family with monthly monetary aid, and proper jobs for them and include them in the housing scheme for the hardcore poor.

Junaidi and his family have been living in the abandoned building for the past three months since moving out of a comfortable house in Kampung Haji Baki They used to stay with one of Junaidi’s daughters in Kampung Haji Baki and her family. However, due to family conflicts, Junaidi said he had no choice but to move out with his two other daughters and family.

“I did go around looking for rooms to rent but because there were seven of us, not many people were keen to rent us only a room and it is too expensive to rent a whole house with the mere wages that my son-in law and I earn.

So I scouted around and found this abandoned building and decided to move to the top floor,” Junaidi told New Sarawak Tribune.

The abandoned building, it is learnt, faces a jungle and is a favorite haunt for drug addicts at night. Junaidi and his son-in-law, who is also an odd job worker, tried to make the room as comfortable as possible.

The adults slept on cardboards while Junaidi’s granddaughters slept on an old mattress. As the windows were without shutters, they used plastic sheets they found in dustbins to cover them at night. Junaidi blocked the doorway at night with a plank he found on the ground floor.

During the day, Junaidi and his son-in-law looked for jobs at Kota Sentosa. The women cooked the family meals over a stove they bought after moving out of the house in Kampung Haji Baki.

Although life was hard, Junaidi said they were happy and grateful to be together. During the thunderstorms, he said all of them would get wet as it was impossible to cover all the windows Junaidi said there were drug addicts loitering on the ground floor.

He said it was fortunate that they only went upstairs once but left him and his family alone. “In a way, we did not bother each other. I was worried about the safety of my daughters and granddaughters but I had no choice,”he confessed, adding that his granddaughters were bitten nightly by mosquitoes.

Junaidi’s plight came to light recently when a Sentosa SUPP member from Haji Baki met him in Kota Sentosa and asked how he was.

The member went on to alert Batu Kitang state assemblyman Lo Khere Chiang who subsequently informed the Welfare Department.

Lo said he was thankful his branch members and the Welfare acted swiftly to save the family from the dangerous place. “The scheme is to help them live independently.

We have asked for RM250 to assist them monthly and wi scout for a house in Mile 17, Batu Gong which they can rent for RM150 per month.

Meanwhile, the Welfa Department will help them find jobs. Once they are able to do that, they can apply for their own house under the hardcore poor programme’ he said.

Lo added that the Sarawak government’s welfare scheme was good. Instead of giving the poor and helpless “fish”, it was giving them a chance to “fish” for themselves and be independent, he said

罗克强:取回权益 砂有望与新汶看齐

罗克强:取回权益 砂有望与新汶看齐
2019年1月13日


罗克强(左5)在砂人联党10哩分部妇女组主席贝雪兰(左6)和筹委会主席郑尤妹(左7)陪同下,分发敬老红包给70岁以上的妇女组组员。
(本报古晋13日讯)砂人联党巴都吉当州议员罗克强表示,丰富资源让砂拉越可以成为富裕的州属,一旦取回属于砂拉越的权益,砂拉越有望成为新加坡和汶莱一般,因此砂拉越人民要团结一致,确保砂拉越本土政党执政,以免财富持续被马来亚所掠夺。



“砂拉越如今正在争取回属于自己的自主权,尤其是石油与天然气资源,但是在砂拉越抓紧财富的时候,也要有壮大政治势力,才不会让财富被马来亚夺走。”

他表示,砂拉越要有政治势力,就需要每一个砂拉越人民都有共识,毕竟团结就是力量,才能让砂拉越是本土政党执政,往后越来越富有。



他指出,砂拉越人民要认清,唯有砂拉越政党联盟继续执政,才能保障砂拉越的权力,因为希望联盟执政联邦之后如何对待砂拉越,大家有目共睹,所以不要对希盟抱着很大的期望,否则会落空。



他解释,汶莱的石油产量只是砂拉越的三分之一,但是汶莱的人民就已经非常富足,国家繁荣昌盛,因此砂拉越若是取回石油和天然气的拥有权,必定能在短时间内成为汶莱或新加坡一般。



“砂拉越不乏人才,只要团结一致,砂拉越土地是非常富有,可以比新加坡发展得更好。因为我们有开明的领袖,加上财富和充足的人才,砂拉越有望成为亚洲最发达的地区,每个民族富有和受到政府的照顾,不会产生分歧和误解。”

也是巴达旺市议会主席的罗克强是于昨晚出席砂人联党10哩分部妇女组主办的2019年迎新送旧及感恩宴,受邀致词时,如此表示。

与此同时,他表示,砂人联党如今的斗争就是要实现这个目标,帮助砂首长成功争取到砂拉越应得的权益。

他希望党员们积极展开政治工作,与人民站在一起,为民服务,将该党政治理念散播到基层各个角落,让人民认同,并且在面对选举的挑战,尽力争取砂拉越政党联盟候选人的胜利,让砂拉越政党联盟执政。



他同时说明,有人质问为何55年来在国阵内不喊砂拉越权益,现在才来喊?主要是以前有内安法令的存在,一旦批评政府就会被逮捕,但是内安法令于2012年ISA被前首相纳吉废除,砂拉越人民才有机会提出砂拉越权益的课题。

“况且,我们的先辈们教育程度不高,懂得不够透彻,不能怪他们被联邦欺负。但是如今的年轻人接受高等教育,对砂拉越的政治理念懂得很多,现在的领袖也比以前的领袖更了解砂拉越的权益,所以砂拉越开始争取属于自己的权益。”

他声言,政治变化很快,但是在变化当中,对砂拉越和马来西亚有好处,就如砂人联党如今不在国阵内,是砂拉越政党联盟的一员,与其他成员党积极争取砂拉越的权益。


“我们作为砂拉越执政党之一,内阁部长和州议员们都积极争取砂拉越自主权,虽然在联邦政府,我们不是执政党,但是我们也会争取人民最大的权益。”

此外,他指出,砂拉越有三个大桥被希望联盟政府搁置工程,幸好英明的砂拉越首席部长实行5%石油产品销售税,所以砂拉越政府有充足的收入自行进行相关工程。

“我个人希望,砂拉越政府往后可以获得20%的石油天然气税收。”

Encourage consumers to kick the plastic bag habit, retailers urged


Encourage consumers to kick the plastic bag habit, retailers urged


KUCHING, Jan 31: Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) is urging businesses to encourage their customers to use reusable shopping bags or recycled plastic bags to help protect the environment.

Its chairman, Lo Khere Chiang, said the council had embarked on a campaign to ban plastic bags while encouraging consumers and businesses under its jurisdiction to opt for the more environmental­friendly bags.

“We would like to encourage customers to bring their own reusable shopping bags or use recycled plastic bags.

“At the same time, the existing plastic bags should be re­used as many times as possible, especially for subsequent shopping trips,” he told reporters after chairing an MPP council meeting here today.

Lo, who is also Batu Kitang assemblyman, said the council had to dispose of thousands of kilogrammes of used plastic bags annually.

He reminded that discarded plastics are hazardous to the environment as well as life threatening to marine life and seabirds.

On MPP’s ban on styrofoam for food and drink packaging in January last year, Lo expressed hope that all coffee shop owners, restaurant, food stall and other premises abide by the ruling.

He said his enforcement personnel would carry out checks from time to time.

Meanwhile, on the four previously declared dengue areas at Arang Road, Jalan Field Force, Kampung Bratan and Kampung Simboh, Lo said only the first two said areas were still considered active dengue hotspots

In this regards, MPP is calling for a more concentrated effort from the public to keep their surroundings clean and to rid of any potential mosquito breeding ground.

“The council has carried out a lot of ‘gotong­royong’ activities, and we are calling residentials, villages, community associations, NGOs (non­governmental organisations) to carry out ‘gotong­royong’ programmes in their areas to help reduce the threat posed by dengue mosquitoes.

“Do get rid of containers that can become mosquito breeding habitats, such as plastic bottles and cans,” Lo said.

Homes or premises found with mosquitoes breeding grounds could face a maximum fine of RM500, he cautioned. — DayakDaily

Looking into Sarawak Airlines



Looking into Sarawak Airlines

KUCHING: The state government will look into setting up its very own airlines company.

One of the main reasons, according to Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg, is so that the state could have more direct international fights.

“When we have the additional fund, we will either buy our own airplane or set up our own airlines company,” he said during ‘Experience Sarawak’ Programme at Kopi-O Corner, Jalan Satok, on Sunday night.

He said when Sarawak has its own airlines its tourism industry would get boosted as more foreign tourists would nd it easier to visit the state.


On an unrelated matter, Johari said the increasing number of mass communication graduates who do not have many job opportunities in Sarawak is an important reason for the state government to set up its own television channel/station.

“During a town hall session of Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS), one of our members asked me how the government can help the youths especially those with art talents. I think it is better that we have our own television channel/station,” he said.

He said the channel/station will it be used to promote Sarawak’s products, create more jobs, and produce more local talents such as television or drama directors.

“We have a few talented movie directors from Sarawak. One is from Sibu who is now in Hong Kong, and one is from Kuching who is based in Hollywood,” he said, adding that we should not forget the famous director and actor Tan Sri P Ramlee from Penang.

“Television is an everyday thing, so we have to create a lot of content for the different segments in the channel. These include news, drama, and information about Sarawak’s economy,” he said.

Look out for discounts, CNY shoppers advised

Look out for discounts, CNY shoppers advised


KUCHING: Saving consistently, avoiding debt, spending wisely and investing for the future to meet family needs in any economic climate are a sure-win formula, according to Batu Kitang assemblyman Lo Khere Chiang.
Lo, who is also Padawan Municipal Council chairman, said this combination of positive habits is an age-old traditional practice of the Chinese community.
He said in the modern context, it means spending wisely.
“Looking out for discounts in supermarkets during all festive seasons is a good start. Compare prices, you would be surprised how price tags can really help you save a lot if you are buying a lot,” he said, adding people must learn to be wise consumers.
“But of course, it is the best thing to do to treat your family to a nice meal,” he said when contacted yesterday.
The assemblyman went on to extend his season’s greeting: “May this Chinese New Year bestow upon you good health, progress and much happiness.
“Let us spread the message of peace and harmony among all races in multicultural Sarawak.
“Happy Chinese New Year and may all our hopes for Sarawak and Sabah come true.”

Tingkatkan keselamatan di laluan Pan Borneo

PADAWAN: Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) dan kontraktor Projek Lebuhraya Pan Borneo akan bekerjasama dalam meningkatkan tahap keselamatan di laluan itu pada musim perayaan.
Pesuruhjaya Polis Sarawak, Datuk Azman Yusof, berkata langkah itu perlu berikutan kerja-kerja pembinaan sedang rancak dijalankan di sepanjang laluan berkenaan.
Justeru, katanya, Jabatan Siasatan dan Penguatkuasaan Trafik Sarawak diarah mengadakan perbincangan dengan semua pemaju yang terbabit dalam 11 pakej projek mega itu dari Sematan hingga Lawas.
“Kita perlu meneliti langkah perlu untuk memastikan pemanduan selamat kerana laluan berkenaan sentiasa sibuk dengan kerja pembinaan, selain peningkatan jumlah kenderaan yang melaluinya pada musim perayaan ini.
“Keadaan laluan itu ketika ini belum sempurna dan pengguna kenderaan perlu lebih berwaspada,” katanya pada sidang media selepas Pelancaran Op Selamat 14 Sempena Tahun Baharu Cina di Dewan Bola Keranjang Siburan, di sini, hari ini.
Turut hadir, Timbalannya, Datuk Mohd Dzuraidi Ibrahim; Pengarah Jabatan Bomba dan Penyelamat Malaysia (JBPM) Sarawak, Khirudin Drahman dan Ketua Jabatan Siasatan dan Penguatkuasaan Trafik Sarawak, Superintendan Alexson Naga Chabu.
Azman berkata, ketika ini sebanyak 17 lokasi panas yang kerap berlaku kemalangan maut dikenal pasti di laluan berkenaan.
Tahun lalu, katanya, jumlah kemalangan jalan raya yang rekodkan di negeri ini adalah sebanyak 20,600 dan ia meningkat berbanding 19,832 kes yang dicatatkan pada 2017.
“Tetapi jumlah kematian menurun tahun lalu iaitu 321 kes berbanding 373 kes dalam tempoh sama tahun lalu,” katanya.
Katanya, Op Selamat sempena musim perayaan di Sarawak dengan tema ‘Rumah Selamat, Selamat Sampai’ bukan sahaja tertumpu kepada keselamatan pengguna jalan raya, malah ia turut dilaksanakan di laut dan sungai yang masih menjadi laluan perhubungan penduduk negeri ini.
“Sesuai dengan temanya, kita mahu memastikan rumah yang ditinggalkan penghuni sempena cuti perayaan juga selamat daripada kegiatan jenayah.
“Untuk itu, orang ramai harus memaklumkan kepada polis dengan mengisi borang yang disediakan di balai sebelum mereka meninggalkan kediaman,” katanya. – Berita Harian Online 

GPS bercadang tubuh saluran televisyen tersendiri untuk Sarawak

GPS bercadang tubuh saluran televisyen tersendiri untuk Sarawak


KUCHING, 26 Jan: Kerajaan negeri Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) bercadang mewujudkan saluran televisyennya sendiri bagi menampaikan maklumat, berita dan program kandungan tempatan kepada rakyat negeri ini.

Ketua Menteri Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg berkata rancangan tersebut sedang dalam perbincangan, memandangkan Sarawak adalah negeri pembangkang dibawah pemerintahan GPS.

Saluran televisyen dibawah Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM) dan Jabatan Penerangan adalah dibawah kerajaan pusat Pakatan Harapan (PH).

“Daripada sudut televisyen, ianya sedang dalam perundingan ketika ini kerana masalahnya ialah saluran. Kita (GPS) mesti ada saluran televisyen kita sendiri,” katanya ketika Sesi Townhall Bersama Ketua Menteri dan Perasmian Seminar GPS Zon 1 di Pusat Konvensyen Penview di sini hari ini.

Abang Johari berkata dengan mewujudkan saluran televisyen milik GPS, pihaknya dapat menyampaikan maklumat dan berita kepada orang ramai di negeri, ini disamping menyiarkan pelbagai program televisyen yang berkaitan kandungan tempatan.

“Mungkin nanti kita akan ada siaran berita selama 15 minit iaitu setiap pukul 7 dan 10 malam dan kemudian menyiarkan program televisyen tempatan termasuk kesenian, tempat menarik, budaya, masakan dan sebagainya,” katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian apabila mengulas soalan dari ahli GPS, samada gabungan terbabit akan mengikut tindakan pemimpin dan wakil rakyat pembangkang di Sarawak, yang menyediakan peruntukan yang besar bagi menubuhkan kumpulan cybertroopers untuk memanfaatkan laman sosial sebagai media berkempen.

Abang Johari berkata sebagai pengerusi GPS, beliau memberi kebenaran kepada para pemimpin gabungan terbabit untuk mengunakan budi bicara mereka sekiranya mahu menubuhkan pasukan cybertroopers masing­masing. — DayakDaily

MPP chief to ex-Stampin MP: Be a gentleman and apologise

MPP chief to ex-Stampin MP: Be a gentleman and apologise

KUCHING, Jan 27: Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) chairman Lo Khere Chiang is demanding an apology from former Stampin MP Julian Tan.

He said it was “most irresponsible” and unbecoming for the former MP to blame him and his office for the poor performance of the 15th Mile Kuching­Serian Road, which is under the jurisdiction of the federal government. 

“The advice of MPP was never sought because JKR Malaysia does not need to seek the advice of the MPP to build federal roads,” Lo said in a statement today.

Furthermore, Lo pointed out, JKR Malaysia and JKR Sarawak were much bigger departments and with more technical expertise than MPP. In addition, MPP was only responsible for state feeder roads.

He insisted that Tan had “maliciously and wrongfully accused” him of being responsible for the poor performance of the road in question.

“For that, I repeat, I expect a proper apology from Tan,” he asserted.

Lo noted that there had been a flurry of activities by former DAP lawmakers of late, and he could not help but wonder if they were making complaints to help Sarawak become a better place for all or if they were just making a lot of noise to gain cheap political mileage.

He said he was amazed at the reaction of Tan to his news publication on Jan 25, where MPP councillors and himself showed concern about the controversial road after a recent fatal accident at the roundabout.

Lo said there had been 400 accidents along that stretch of the road, with 200 of them at the roundabout. Hence, everyone should be concerned.

“I do not understand why Tan is so uptight about pinning the blame on the previous government for this road design.

“I have never said it was about the previous government or the present new government. It is never about the previous or the present new government.”

“What I said, and I repeat, is that it is about the policies of the federal government. Sarawak has been negotiating for administrative autonomy. This is one of the many administrative autonomies that should be returned to Sarawak,” said Lo.

Lo, who is also Batu Kawa assemblyman, suggested that JKR Malaysia just park their allocation with JKR Sarawak and let Sarawak engage its own local consultants to design and to manage this road.

“JKR Malaysia is too far away to be able to take care of Sarawak matters effectively. Tan, being a Sarawakian, should support me wholeheartedly on this. Together, we should demand for Sarawak’s rights and Sarawak’s administrative autonomy to be given back to Sarawak.

“In this respect, I am of the opinion that I rightly deserve a gentlemanly apology from Tan for putting the blame of the poor performance of this federal road on me and MPP.

“Tan, being a former MP, should be familiar with government procedures and he should be knowledgeable about the separate duties of JKR Malaysia and that of MPP,” said Lo.— DayakDaily

Batu Kitang rep tells Dapsy leader to shut up and fight for Sarawak


Batu Kitang rep tells Dapsy leader to shut up and fight for Sarawak

KUCHING, Jan 25: Batu Kitang assemblyman Lo Khere Chiang has urged DAP Socialist Youth (Dapsy) Sarawak publicity secretary Abdul Aziz Isa to stop making malicious statements about Sarawak leaders and instead get on with the real work to fight for Sarawak’s rights.

“I am quite peeved at DAP Aziz Isa for babbling away, talking nonsense for his political masters in the federal government,” he said in a statement today.

“Sarawak leaders are really working hard for Sarawakians’ best interests. He should instead concentrate on telling his Malayan masters to hurry up and return the oil and petrol money back to Sarawak and Sabah.”

On claims by Aziz that it was Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) who betrayed the rights of Sarawak, Lo said he should realise that the new government was made up of ‘new wine mixed with some old wine’.

Lo quoted the words of Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr James Jemut Masing, who correctly put it that ‘the new government is a mix of new wine and old wine in a bottle ‘capped by an old cork’.

“When Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad was in the federal cabinet, he never made full use of his executive powers to correct the imbalance of development between Sarawak

and Malaya, despite Sarawak being the biggest contributor to the Malaysian oil and gas revenue,” he stressed.

The Petroleum Development Act 1974 (PDA) and Territorial Sea Act 2012 (TSA), he added, were introduced to enable Petronas to siphon Sarawak’s oil and gas.

“Before accusing GPS of being made up of old BN leaders, Aziz should not forget that the new government have accepted former BN leaders into their fray as well.

“Where are PH (Pakatan Harapan)’s credibility and assurance before the election that the new government will implement those new agendas as promised?” Lo asked.

Highlighting that people still felt the pinch from the rising cost of living, Lo reminded that PH had pledged it would take less from Malaysians by introducing tax cuts and lowering living costs.

“Today, prices of goods and materials are going up. Essentials are not coming down and next to none of your election pledges to the people of Sarawak have been fulfilled.

“You, Aziz, should double up on your pathetic efforts and start fulfilling some of your pledges since May 2018, if you are a true Sarawakian,” he added.

Lo said the report from surveys conducted in supermarkets and hypermarkets on Jan 1 was inaccurate and bias as there were various special discounts and promotions being offered due to the festive season.

“Of course, prices will drop because it was done on a day when there were promotions going on. Anyone who has been into a supermarket will know that without having to do a survey.

“Prices for some goods on that day are on special offer, and we cannot take that as the normal price. I am sure prices will drop as well during the Chinese New Year sale,” he said.

Lo criticised that the biased survey, which was done just to prove to the public that prices have dropped, could only generate unreliable, untrustworthy and misleading statistics.

“The survey was done on only one day of the year, and you are trying to fool the public into assuming that is the price for the rest of 2019!” he exclaimed.


Lo reiterated that GPS was a Sarawak­based coalition fighting for all Sarawakians, and, more crucially, GPS need not have to worry about pleasing Malayans who, up till today, have yet to show how they were going to fulfil any of the promises to restore Sarawak and Sabah rights. — DayakDaily

DAP leaders advised to learn Gov’t procedures



DAP leaders advised to learn Gov’t procedures

KUCHING: Stop politicking and be more conversant with government procedures, Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) chairman Lo Khere Chiang advised two state DAP leaders here yesterday.

He told Stampin MP Julian Tan and former Batu Kawah assemblywoman Christina Chiew to get their facts right before hurling false and malicious accusations against MPP.

“Both of you should be more conversant with government procedures; more so, since you are in the government now. 

You should know that this road is under the federal government and not MPP,” he added in response to Tan anc Chiew’s comments on the Mile 15 roundabout along Kuching-Serian road.

Lo also said that Tan and Chiew’s approaches seemed to be once again politicise an already acute situation.

He stressed that the road design was done by the Public Works Department (JKR) Malaysia and not the state JKR.

“They are trying to confuse and mislead the public into believing that MPP is responsible for the Kuching- Serian road.”

He also noted that there was no necessity to consult MPP, neither was there any requirement to seek approval from MPP as claimed by Tan and Chiew.

According to Lo, the councillors were aware about the issue surrounding the road as they were the closest to the people who used the road daily.

He also disclosed that 400 accident cases were reported along the stretch of road since June 2018 including 200 accidents at the roundabout alone.

“One of my Batu Kitang residents, a hardworking 21-year-old boy has passed on just about three weeks ago,” he added.

Lo said he was made to understand that there was no professional consultant engaged for the road and the design was done in house under the scrutiny of JKR Malaysia.

“Why? This is one good example of Sarawak’s claim for administrative autonomy in which the federal government should not interfere with Sarawak’s administration.

Just allocate the money to JKR Sarawak and let them engage local consultants who know the strengths and weaknesses to design this road.

“It is obvious that the federal government and Pakatan Harapan has once again failed Sarawak, not SUPP, not GPS as alleged by Tan and Chiew,” he added.

Lo suggested that Tan and Chiew should double up on their efforts and start fulfilling some of their pledges since May 2018 instead of being preoccupied with spreading false accusations.
