“Arrest Taib”! – NGOs Call For Action

Enough is enough

In a dramatic move, a group of NGOs have today called on the Malaysian Attorney General and the Commissioner of Police to arrest Abdul Taib Mahmud!

A letter drawn up by the Bruno Manser Fund and signed by a number of Malaysian and international NGOs, including Greenpeace, requests “the immediate arrest and criminal prosecution” of Taib, along with 13 family members, whom it names as “co-conspirators in the illegal appropriation of public funds”.

The demand represents the culmination of evidence against the Chief Minister, who is now internationally recognised as one of the world’s most corrupted leaders and as being personally responsible for much of the destruction of the Borneo jungle.  [For full text visit stop-timber-corruption.org

Plain evidence 

The letter makes clear that so much evidence about the corruption of Taib and his family members is now publicly available that it is no longer acceptable to leave the matter with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), which announced an investigation into the Chief Minister last year.

The letter says:

“We firmly believe that it is not enough for the MACC to announce a public investigation and immediate police action should be taken. Ample evidence of Mr Taib’s and his co-conspirators’ offenses is available, and the above-mentioned suspects might use their remaining time in freedom to destroy evidence, to intimidate possible witnesses and to transfer their substantial illicit assets out of the country”

 

Enough is enough! - Time to arrest Taib.

 Obligations

Are times are coming to a close for corrupt dictators?

The letter, backed as it is by a mountain of evidence that has been compiled and made public over the past year, places the Malaysian government in an awkward position.

As a party to the UN Convention on Corruption, Malaysia is committed to combating corruption and to assist investigations by external authorities.  Taib is being investigated in Germany, Switzerland, the UK and Canada.

The letter points out that the evidence against Taib is clearly available by virtue of the enormous wealth he has accumulated, along with his family members, during his 30 years in office.  They point to the Taibs’ stake in over 400 companies in 25 countries and to the $1.5 billion asset value of just 14 of those companies.

Backed by NGOs from Malaysia, Australia, The UK, Germany and Japan, the letter claims such wealth could only have been accumulated by a holder of public office “by a systematic breach of the law and the use of illegal methods”.

Family affair

The letter does not spare Taib’s mass of wealthy siblings and his four children, who it points out are now adult and able to distinguish criminal behaviour.  It lists the family members who have benefited from Taib’s hand-outs of state owned and native customary lands, as well as public contracts and timber concessions.  They include his siblings, his children and also his top business confidant, cousin Hamed Sepawi.

The letter singles out the Taib family’s control of Sarawak’s largest company Cahya Mata Sarawak (CMS) and also Achi Jaya, the company which Taib handed a monopoly over timber export licences, which is owned by his brother Onn Mahmud.  One other company Ta Ann, which is controlled and largely owned by Taib’s cousin, Hamed Sepawi, has received over 362,439 hectares of logging concessions and 313,078 hectares of plantation concessions from the Chief Minister.

The letter backs its allegations with figures and tables and even helpfully provides the names addresses and ID numbers of Taib and his family members in order to assist in their arrest!

Taib family gathering - how come they are all so very rich?

““Arrest Taib”! – NGOs Call For Action”

  1. aborium says:

    Without a ‘flaming spirit’ and ‘hope’, whatever actions that you plan for will be a half-hearted effort at best, and a hollow one at worst. Hope is the amber that keeps you aglow and actions that come out of hope are preferable over ones that are ‘hopeless’ from the start. It’s how you program your mind, process and analyse information before action is taken that counts. At the spiritual level, hope is a silent prayer for better things to come.

    miow miow,the cat catches the rat@all the rat including the foochow families,and the tan sri ting.all crooks and money to give scholarship to all dayak students to do masters `and phd overseas.all desrving dayak students.enough is enough.all dayaks with a bechelor degree who nwants to futher education in u.k,should be granted scholarship.so that dayak not longer easily deceived by politicians dayak or others,once and for all.dayak must progress not regress as what taib do and the dayak leaders agreed to it for 40-50years.

    • Urang kampung says:

      Formal education is one thing. Informal and community education is another. We're, as human beings are naturally designed to learn.

      What would support, if it's the lack of financial resources, is open media …print, voice and virtual. With free expression we'll work out our lives, we're built that way. For a fascist gomen like UMNO/BN Malaysia you are not supposed to.

      I hope Radio Free Sarawak mulls a radio version of this important event. The rakyat must learn and the rakyat must know …!

  3. sarawak marah says:

    saya berharap ini adalah nyata,kerana patut penjara dengan semua koroninya didunia dan dineraga.sudah lah taib dan semua geng gengnya serta keluarga,penjara dibumi dan di neraka.kubur rang mati pun habis di kacau,ini lah masa kamu.

  4. Watch Dog says:

    Malaysian authorities….what are you ALL waiting for?
    The end is NEAR..and now Taib faces the final curtain..all GOOD things must come to an end and what goes up must come down.
    We will get you…T…A…I…B….and your family and take Sarawak wealth that you have stolen!!!!

    May GOD bless you so that you may repent before it is too late.

    Your jin,lucifers,batu delima,batu rukan,bomoh won't be able top help you as our Lord is KING of all KINGS…

  5. Blunt speaker says:

    I DOUBT ANY ACTION WILL BE TAKEN BY THIS UMNO BN GOVT. AS THE GE 13 is LOOMING NEAR, THEY MIGHT TAKE SOME PRETENCIOUS ACTION OR NO ACTION AT ALL DUE TO FEAR OF LOSING SEATS. HOWEVER, I DO HOPE I MAY BE WRONG. ANYWAY, LET'S USE PEOPLES POWER TO OUST THIS CORRUPT ROTTEN GOVT AND REPLACE ONE WHICH WILL DEFINITELY TAKE ACTION COME THIS GE 13!

  6. theBorneon says:

    The new era…. Alas something is brewing and unless the Malaysian government can react or reply, the whole world is watching.. The evidence is widely available in the public domain… If this fails I hope UN can intervene to give support to this endeavour.

  7. Richard says:

    Let's be logical, to arrest the old fool along with his crooked family won't happen, why? as the Police are bent as a rusty nail as well

  8. enough says:

    weel, let see when is going to happen

  9. Ghost Buster says:

    Thank you, Dr. Lukas Straumann for drafting and mailing the letter for the people of Sarawak.
    If Kuala Lumpur / Najib doesn't act ,

    We need your help for a referendum – Sarawak wants to get independent.

  10. Gagasan Guling Taib says:

    Bravo to Sarawak Report's team for for the publication and for your relentless pursuit of truth & justice. The world is waking up and there is mounting pressure to persecute THE THIEF MINISTER. Taie & cronies, there is no place for you to run and hide on this planet. The world is watching you tumbling & crashing down.

  11. sarasul says:

    Nobody dares to touch Taib in Malaysia, not even its PM. Please call on CIA and ICJ to help do the job.

  12. LESLIE says:

    DO YOU KNOW WHY TUN MAHADIR, JABU, MAWAN, JAMES MASING, SOON KOH, ALL YB IN SARAWAK AND MANY IN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DON'T DARE TO SPEAK UP AGAINST THE CORRUPTION OF TAIB?

    TAIB GAVE THEM MONIES OR PROJECT IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER…
    IF THEY SPEAK UP, WHITE HAIR WILL EXPOSE THEM…ESP TUN M…

    • Blunt speaker says:

      You are right! When Anwar was finance minister and he refused to let Tun M use GOVT fund to bail out Tun M son's company Renong, it was white hair who used our Sarawak money to do so! That's why the critical Tun M never criticized white hair for white hair's wrong doings while others, he never refrain himself? Needless to say all those lap dog ministers of Sarawak who are so faithful to this white hair devil for fallen crumbs from the table!

      • Shaking Steven says:

        Blunt speaker…NOT bail out but FREE as he never repay back.Our Auditor General is sleeping.That they will say "P.I.K" meaning Payment In Kind!!

  13. Linger says:

    Taib is undeniably a fearful figure among Sarawakians because they tried but none of their report of his wrongdoings can reach the authority. The Malaysian gov. couldn't do anything, EVERYTHING is written out in Federal Constitution of Malaysia

  14. Ollergzella says:

    Padan muka! I hope the investigation would run fairly and smoothly. The CM has plenty of money to pay “bomohs” and “spies” to vanish forever those involve in the investigation. So be very careful.

  15. aborium says:

    The time has come my friend to talk of arrest and criminal prosecution of Taib, family members, and cohorts. His supporters are still in a state of disbelief and let them be so. NGOs are neither push-overs with the likes of Greenpeace who has its own team of international lawyers and experts.

    We’ve come this far and it’s almost out of our hands. I say ‘almost’ cause there’s going to be the mother of all legal battles to be won in court. And it’s pretty grim-looking because you can’t reduce the size of the elephant to a pinball in a courtroom. It’s a forecast that casts dark clouds and a heavy turbulence ahead.

    And the Malaysian judiciary system is put on the line and the spotlight for all to see! They never did believe us when we say the world has changed and indeed it has proven to be so here!

  16. Sern Khuan says:

    give up, pigs can fly before anything will happen to that snowman, the most is going to the police station to register statement and that's it, haha hell they might give him a trial of which he wont be present and then they would either drag it out or sweep it under the carpet straight away
    one way or another, justice will not be done unless someone has enough balls not to succumb to his money politics, its always unwise to mess with people of high influence, haha you guys think CIA whatever IA will dabble their hands dirty for this? I hardly think that such a puny country warrants such a politically disparaging manuever.
    so ya, i guess we should just wait til he drops dead one day and someone else takes the helm, either that or the opposition gets enough money to play the same game of money politics and take over Sarawak. Until then, just stay put and watch the show of evidence upon evidence, letters upon letters pilling up, all senseless noises akin to the rain splattering on closed glass windows.

    • aborium says:

      If pigs can fly, so too can cows buy condos. We'll see what your glass house is made of, cause if you're too cocksure, it'll shatter and hope you won't be the one asked to pick up them pieces. To give up, tell that to the boy scouts! 'Unwise to mess up with people of high influence' ?, tell that to the coward pigs and cows. The heat is on them not you.

      It may be noise to you, but dear me it's loud enough to wake a sleeping giant!

    • sarawak marah says:

      you and aborium both have a point.lets see,how far and how long.hope it 30days time not another 30years time.

      • aborium says:

        The point is hope. And our hope is that this episode has a fast closure so that we Sarawakians can go on with life and face the greater challenges ahead. How prepared are we?

        • sarawak marah says:

          sampai bila brader,sampai bila,hope sampai bulan runtuh,tak akan.kita kena juang habis habisan.ini orang sarawak semua merinsah gara gara taib.sik mahu hope hope jak,jum kita boycott gan tunjuk perasaan besar besaran.kita semua baru betul.tok kita hope hope dari duluk hope hope sik dapat brader.

        • Sern Khuan says:

          lol to aborium's 'flaming spirit', hope is a word used by those waiting for a miracle to happen, or a child waiting for Santa Claus to come down the chimney. We live in a harsh world and when reality sets in, you'd realise too late that it's you staring out of that glass house instead. Oh and i don get the allusion to cows and condos, mind enlightening me some?

          sarawak marah, my sentiments exactly, kita anak swak dah lama tngu 'bulan runtuh', yg dpt wt dgn peace dh lah wt dgn sungguh2 nya, skrang ape yg dpt kmk n ktk wt lah tunggu sorg PEMIMPIN yg radical, George & Alfred tu kenalah turun jua, kolo x, mmg sik dpt ubah ape2 benda pon. Msalah boycot tu skrang tgk Bersih 2.0 tu, da smpai org cdera n sbg, ape bole wt kan? Kalo nak 'freedom', knalah b'juang same2 n korban skit.

      • aborium says:

        Propaganda is a deliberate act of saying there's no elephant in the room whereas you and I know there's one as huge as a mammoth. You can't miss it. Let things happen because without it, it's like a slow winding down of your life. And put submission into effect, and soon you can't tell the difference between what's real and unreal anymore. Again for next 31 years? Get a life!

      • Blunt speaker says:

        Dayak love Taib, JABU, mawan, masing and all those Dayaks who love and support Taib, Hell is waiting for you all! You have to pay back for the treachery, devastation, miseries and sufferings you have caused to the inhabitants and all the living creatures!

    • caveman says:

      To say something would open his own can of worms?

    • Blunt speaker says:

      I already said Tun M hutang budi dengan white hair! It was White hair using Sarawak's money to bail out Tun M son's business called Renong during the economic crisis! Anwar was finance minister then and he refused to let Tun M use GOVT fund for his son's business, so they trumped up sodomy 1 to get Anwar into prison. Tun M is infact as corrupt and wicked as white hair!

Remember it took them almost a month to locate the wreckage while it took just 24 hrs to locate an army helicopter that crashed in the same area not long after!

    Abolish the so-called bumiputra and non bumiputra.. All sarawak-borne are considered natives like the rest of world are doing.

    I don't want to speculate what will happen to taib after NGOs called for his arrest. But there must be a lot of hardwork done by SR to come out with that evidences as being revealed in the 'stop-timber-corruption.org'

    Without the white skin I think it never progress that far. Malaysians alone cannot accomplish that lengthly, tedious jobs (professionally dissected & filed). We know that malaysians are lazy and easily give up the struggles, that s why the corrupted leaders still around.

    Anyway Tq SR especially to Clare. You have done a great job. By compiling almost all evidences against taib (whether taib is going to be prosecuted does not matter), in fact, you already achieved the victory; not only caught the attention of the ignorant sarawakians but the whole world! Now is up to the Malaysian govt to prove her stance/ commitment against corruption in the eyes of the world.

    ONE BIG CROOK DEFENDS ANOTHER BIG CROOK

    A news report has been posted in Hornbill Unleashed [http://hornbillunleashed.wordpress.com/2011/12/15/26241/ ]which says:

    "Malaysia’s former Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohamad, has defended Sarawak’s embattled chief minister, Abdul Taib Mahmud, questioning calls by international NGOs for investigations of Taib’s vast fortune.

    “When an election is near, you get funny things like this coming out,” Mahathir told reporters at a press conference Tuesday. “If it is just a political game to try and undermine somebody’s political image then I think it is not right.”
    ———————————————————————————————————————————————————-

    This really a case of one big crook defending another bog crook! They sing the same song.

    Mahathir and Taib ganged up to rob Sarawak in the Bakun Dam project.

    In fact if Sarawak Report investigates this deeper it will uncover that Mahathir's proxy companies got away a much bigger share of the loot..

    If Mahathir's companies got a few big contracts they would have already skimmed of several hundred millions. But it could be a few billion dollars.

    This should be in excess of $1 Billion being 10% milked by them based on the fact that the Bakun project exceeded $10 Billion to build. They only paid a few hundred million to some Chinese company to build it and a few hundred million to Taib's CMS cement.

    So where is the rest of the money? How was it spent?

    We should seriously expose Mahathir like the way Taib has been exposed.

    They are all in it together.

    • Blunt speaker says:

      Apart from the devil Taib,, the other devil is Mahathir! Both of these devils have benefitted monstrous ILLGOTTEN gains from Sarawak, especially Mahathir the whole of Malaysia, to enrich themselves and their family members! HELL is awaiting such as these!

  44. Neutral says:

    Looking at taib family gathering, I give one bonus point, why? At least the women, ladies & girls not hypocrites- non of them wear TUDUNG except nenek. They know they live on ill-gotten foods, ill-gotten luxuries, ill-gotten cash.

    They know that they cannot afford to pretend- taib corruption charges are at their finger tips. Even the kids have six sense, knowing their parents/ grandparents swindled so much of peoples' money.

    Only the stupid YBs pretending not knowing they live on ill-gotten wealth!

  45. pussy cat says:

    if this happened then all the ill gotten gain should be confisticated and categorised under duit rakyat sarawak and to be used to set sarawak people foundation,to help all the need of sarawakians.health,education and walfare.SARAWAKIANS DESERVED ALL THE ILL GOTTEN GAINS BACK.PRAY FOR MERCY.

    LORD JESUS POUR FORTH YOUR MERCY N THE LAND OF SARAWAK AND ITS PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF RACE AND CREED THIS CHRISTMAS.THEY ALL DESERVE SOME JOY AND PEACE THIS SEASON AND FOR THE COMING YEAR.TAKE AWAY ALL THE EVIL FROM THIS LAND YOU HAVE GIVEN THE SARAWAKIANS.AMEN.

      UMNO/BN has NEVER been for the Dayak people – get this straight fellows. UMNO/BN is the most racist party. UMNO/BN hates other races. In the just concluded UMNO Assembly, they bashed up Christians, knowing very well that 60% Sarawakian are Christians.

      This coming G. election, voting BN/PBB means voting for racist UMNO/BN. Reject BN at all cost. Take their bribe monies (its yours in the first place), but vote ANYthing BUT BN. Even if your dog stands in the election, your dog is still better than racist UMNO/BN. ABU – anything but UMNO.

    The whole system of democracy, human rights and morality has gone to the dogs. Even Mahathir came up 'in favour' of Taib a day ago! Not really surprising as Mahathir's Son has been a director of 200 companies; he mentored ethnocracy, nepotism, corruption, mega projects and the likes of Ting Pek Kiing, Eric Chia…. It's all sickening & disgraceful. The international community has lost respect for these people altogether. Alan Newman, NZ

    Dr M has been bribed by Taib and also make use of taib as a dog. For instance, during the 1997 economic crisis, Taib was reputed to help Dr. M's son (Mukhriz) with tons of money and that makes Dr. M keep quiet or occasionally 'defend' Taib. Also, Dr. M has been using Taib to request for land: e.g. Dr. m was once seen by the road ride at Tabuan Road, Kuching viewing a piece of land with Taib Mahmud and Dr M crony (Ting Pek King) with all the police outriders around. also Dr. M requested Taib for land for his crony (Tan Sri Lee Kim Yew-owner and developer of Country heoghts in Selangor) at Borneo Heights. Also Dr Mahathir uses his cronies (Ting Pek khing) to obtain area at bakun for logging under the pretext of constructing southeast asia's largest dam! These we know. How about htose we dont know? Dr m is very corrupted!! Even legalised more than 1.5 million illegal immigrantsin Sabah to win election!!

    I have been staying at Maxwell Road Lorong or lane no. 1government quarters in Kuching for some donkey years already.The whole area is under stateland. Recently (just this week), I was surprissed to see a signboard "Land for sale -Rozin Realty" on a piece of vacant land next to my quarters!!.I also saw it advertized in newspaper!! I was really shocked and dumfounded. They must have got precious land in the middle of the statleand/govrnment quarters for a meagre and paltry sum!!!

      Your ABANG group is NOT prepared to work hard but rather waiting for hand-out from your BIG BOSS.We have the least co-operation from your group.WHY??

  54. Dayang Rogayah says:

    In today's (December 17, 2011) headline of Borneo Post, Yong Khoon Seng, Deputy Minister of Works, mentioned lack of funds for the upgrading of the road to that of a highway comparable to that of the North-South Highway in West Malaysia. This is not acceptable to all Sarawakians. The Pan Borneo Trunk Road (I am glad that it so named from the former Pan Borneo Highway, which is a joke !) is the only road connecting Sematan in the south to Miri in the north and thence on to Limbang and Lawas to Sabah. The present condition of this trunk road (except for that stretch from Sematan to Kuching, Kuching to Serian and from the junction to Betong up to Bukit Kayu Malam in the Saratok/Sarikei boundary and the junction to Julau to the Durin bridge, is in a deplorable condition. One has to travel along the stretch of road to experience the dangers. Those from West Malaysia who travel along this road would wryly comment that their kampung roads are in a better condition and added how Sarawakians could accept such treatment from the Federal Government. If the North-South Highway could be built in West Malaysia, there is no reason why the present trunk road could not be upgraded to that comparable with the North-South Highway. Sarawak and Sabah, through the oil and gas industries, contributed much to the country's economy and there is no reason for the Federal Government to ignore this. For the road to remain in its present condition is a betrayal of the trust of the people in the state who have supported the government ever since 1963. Maybe the past and present leaders of the State and Federal BN have never traveled along this trunk road and that is why it has remained in its present condition to this day. It is a betrayal of the people's trust and support for the government in the highest order. The Government cannot use the excuse of lack of funds. If the North-South Highway could be constructed in West Malaysia, we in Sarawak and Sabah are equally deserving of Sarawak – Sabah Highway. Are we not deserving of this seeing how much the 2 states have contributed to the nation's economy. Why are we in Sarawak and Sabah "dianaktirikan" ? IS it because our status as 2 regions in the Federation of Malaysia has been downgraded to that of being the 13th and 14th state – equal in status to that of Perlis and other smaller states like Kedah) that we are given such treatment. Maybe it is because our development fund is allocated equal to that of Perlis that Yong Khoon Seng commented as he did in the Borneo Post.

    • Blunt speaker says:

      This bloody BN has siphoned so much of Sarawak's and Sabah's resources and leave our two states on the verge of bankruptcy by not repaying us accordingly to our contributions to the national coffers! We are supposed to be the richest states in terms of revenue and resources but look at our situation now, almost dried up by these grossly corrupt and greedy vampires and traitors! We should bring these vampires and traitors like Mahathir, Taib, Najib, Musa and JABU to book, just to name a few. I reiterate that tiny Singapore is even richer than the whole of Malaysia, whereas Sabah and Sarawak should be faring better with all the resources if properly managed and administered. Let's get rid of this bloody corrupt BN before it's too late! Let's educate the orangulus and rural poor unless what Taib said of them being stupid is really true!

    • Lawakian says:

      The best portion of Kuching-Lawas road is Brunei. Although Sarawak alone has so much more resources than Brunei, the road is by comparison, mountain and valley. The Bruneians are so much well-off too. Just a drive through Brunei, you will notice the stark difference in wealth and management. Thanks to Taib.

    Recently, the director of insolvency dept in Misa was reported to have said that those bankrupt can be declared not bankrput after 10 years. Presently those bankrupt have to report to police if need to travel overseas!! Now they are proposing they don't have to after 10 years!! If that is the case,then a lot of bankrupt can cheat people like Dr. m's crony (Ting Pek khing)!!!1 People can just transfer all the wealth to their wife and the declare bankrupt and to cheat people. and then after 10 years they are free from those impose on them under the bankrupcy act.

  66. aborium says:

    With the blacklist of Taib's associates and helpers across the globe, it's like the living characters out of le Carre's novels . The exposes by the Bruno Manser Foundation (BMF) offer a peek into the 'workings' of the dodgy and shady world of money laundering involving shell companies in offshore tax havens like the British Virgin Islands.

    In a world of automated banking, illicit money could find their way into the banking and financial systems and transaction routes to come out as clean money deposited at a bank almost anywhere in the world. Especially Monaco, the playground of the rich and famous and to add spice, Taib's special relationship with Prince Albert.

    Money laundering is a serious offence because it undermines the financial systems to which we all are dependent upon, to a lesser or greater degree. Democracy itself is under attack.

    As citizens of Malaysia it is our rights to seek answers to questions that are in the public interest to investigate immediately based on the gravity of this case. This one is serious and requires immediate action by the relevant authorities.

  71. alan newman, NZ says:

    Quotes from Free Malaysia Today: "Mahathir has also been guilty on a national scale of hijacking the organs of state, doing away with the checks and balances inherent in the legislature, executive and judiciary, dipping his hands into the national cookie jar on behalf of his cronies and to fuel his politics of patronage and institutionalising racism in the country as a national ideology of the ruling elite.
    The punishment must fit the crime. In Mahathir’s case, as with Taib, there is no punishment as yet devised for the enormity of their crimes against the state and people, even if they were to be re-born several times over to be punished all over again."

    Latest news,

    Taib's and family try to dispose all company share to lawyer and well known businessman. Many share had been sold recently. One of the company share had been bought by a billionaire proxy at a high price to get prove of purchase to reveal the ownership. Once again Taib's had been fallen into the trap with help of the YB's in purchasing this share.

    For Taib,

    how can u go away with the company share record your name??? you always ask money from Hamed Sepawi, is it rite?? dont you think you are a burden log for him?

  78. dayak in b.n says:

    its just not arresting taib,he is bad and evil and corrupt.dayak need to think hard on their political survival.

    dayak dont even have their own political party for goodness sake.we are in all parties but our own.

    tell me of a dayak party,many are in p.k.r as most of the bloggers in s.r but it a federal based party,will it have any relevant to the dayak in sarawak and their predicaments,namely health education and walfare.its just a party wanting to counter the federal umno and b.n political dominance.

    we can argue about issues and taib and his doing but to me he is the buffer which keeps us dayak from being capture or control by the federal government like sabah.In a chess game,taib is my queen that i put as a buffer against my enemies.dayak have to think beyond issues now but political survival and the dayak surviving for the next century.

    its just no longer a game of issues of who is bad and corrupt and we get rid of them and get a new leader and they became the same.and we get rid of them again and history keep repeating itself.

    we have to think of the survival of the dayak despite all the problems and look into the walfare of our people and their education and health.

    the problem is the dayak are swayed by all the political parties and idoelogies but they are not united as a voice and a force; and as such no one pay attention to them.

    well,s.r is highlighting issues of sarawak to the whole world,but remember sarawak is not just about timber,its about the people how to help the people and look into their needs and walfare.

    if there is any help we need its about unity and working together to bring the state of sarawak and us dayak majority to be a people of wisdom and knowledge and move into the future and be wise in how we move especially in politics and not be destructive to our people and our community.

    i appreciate feedback to my comment but try not to be angry and post hatred because its not atking us anywhere,we all have our emotions but lets be civilised.

    • brian pirit says:

      Who is not talking about dayak problems here? SR came about because of dayak predicaments, corrupt politicians, dayak concerns about their future. Taib has been given the chance to improve the livelihood of the dayaks for the last 30 long years but what has become of the dayak? Instead of progressing into a better future,they are still mired in destitution and puverty! What kind of buffer is taib you are talking about? He will soon die and you still think he is the man even after he is gone and done with by his god? Come on lah,don't make a god out of this thief.Do you think a dayak chief minister or anybody else will just sell off sarawak to umno and those equally corrupted goons running the country from malaya without considering the consequences and be blind to the problems the sabahans are now going through? Have you not heard of taib's divide and rule politcal game?

    • brian pirit says:

      Taib has overstayed his welcome and relevance as a chief minister and he knows it. Is getting rid of this corrupted taib destructive to the people and community? Don't you want to see a progressive sarawak with its wealth shared by all and not by the select few? Or a thriving, prosperous and econmically independent dayak community which is not a slave to other races as the present situation clearly shows? Being the majority race, thats a shame to be at the bottom rung of the economic ladder. If bn under taib for 30 years and counting did what they were elected to do instead of enriching themselves only, we will not need SR and the oppositions will have no bones to pick with bn and taib. Taib simply failed the dayak on purpose. Yes, we have jabu,masing,mawan and the rest but he got all of them by their noses so how not to toe the line. You want dayak unity,get rid of taib and his his kind, his divide and rule game will end and that would be a wise move by the dayaks. Don't you think? The dayak as majority should rule and that would be a game changer for the future survival of a civilised dayak community.

    yes brain pirit,you have valid point but if you guys from the outside cannot do the toppling.we from the inside just have to woork within the rules of the game until the natural process of nature take it cause.well no one can live forever,not even taib.many in b.n are still waiting for the change.

    dayak unity comes not from political parties or proppaganda but from the dayak emotion.

    they must feel and agreed with the issues that they are driven to act on it.namely vote for the change but that is not the case.

    many leaders have their own separate agenda and all want to lead and the struggle between the leaders for their political survival cause us to suffer.the position for position.

    dayak political survival depend on us dayak ourself and how we are united and we have to work on this.

    i beg to differ in you saying it taib who divide and rule dayak and cause the current scenario,if we cannot unite as a people we ahve focus goal,we cannot blame others but ourselve.

    the unifying factor for the malay is islam,and melanau try to grab on this milage by being malay/melanau.

    as for us dayak,we dont have a unifying force,we simple dont.we justb ride on the political parties propagada and try to suit our struggle with what the political parties are having.

    like dayak in supp,supp is a multiracial party but fighting for majority chinese rights.or spdp or prs are dayak led parties but not all dayak are in the party and we have the bumiputra wing of the pbb.we dayak are all over and we ride on what suit us but yet we are disunited.

    we dont really have a focus political struggle except to topple and being anti taib.

    our leaders should have a proper focus that dayak in all parties can seek to enforce namely education and welfare.

    lets all just post comment which are constructive and see how far we can actually move to the next journey for our dayak political struggle and we must be able to accept positive criticism.so that we can think of how we actually can move politically to the coming future.

    we dayak must also be able to play the balancing act,to maintain dayak position when the dayak in the opposition cannot attain what they are fighting for.i hope to hear what is the best for us dayak to be united and be strong in race.

    • brian pirit says:

      Can the dayak force a reversal of DPM decision on his education system pertaining to the teaching and usage of the english language? The dayak can focus on every issues affecting them but can they make the change when the final decision to make the change is in the hand of other people? We are not putting the blame sorely on taib. The dayaks leaders allowed themselves to be manipulated and divided by taib and i stressed it again, divided and there exist a big big political chasm between the present dayak leaders. Can it be their pride,self interest and something to do with who can position himself to be in taib's favour and gain the upper hand? Taib knows that Dayaks from different parts of sarawak, Sri Aman, Betong, Julau, Kapit etc still lives in their past glories and can never agree with each other.This is exactly what taib has exploited to split the Dayaks.

    • brian pirit says:

      Now let change the scenario,say, elect one of these dayak leaders as CM,do you think the rest of the dayak leaders and the majority dayaks will support him? I beleive the dayak will defend these political gain with their lives and i also beleive no dayak will dare turn traitor, unless offcourse pride,self interest and historical divide of yesteryears crept in again. You want dayak unity, get rid of taib and his kinds now. Only when the decision making is in the hands of the dayak majority will issues of dayak education and welfare see a bighter day ahead!

  82. alan newman, NZ says:

    RM400 million a day of black money disappeared from Malaysia! Based on the reported RM150 billion of black money a year that disappeared. Reports: According to the Washington-based financial watchdog Global Financial Integrity (GFI), in 2009 alone RM 150 billion (US$47 billion) in illicit money was illegally siphoned out of Malaysia.
    The latest GFI report, ‘Illicit Financial Flows from Developing Countries Over the Decade Ending 2009', is penned by economists Sarah Freitas and Dev Kar, who is a former senior economist at the International Monetary Fund. They stressed that these illicit outflows are basically "unrecorded capital leakages through… illicit transfers of the proceeds of bribery, theft, kickbacks and tax evasion." In other words, it refers to corruption money or black money that is obtained illegally…. ENOUGH OF TAIB, ENOUGH OF UMNO, NOT ANOTHER DAY!

  83. alan newman says:

    Taib’s 31 yrs of abuse of power, mutli-billion $ plunder and over 10 years of the same by his Uncle before him, the Sarawak CM must be arrested now. His morality, integrity; legitimacy & right to lead are ZERO.
    UMNO is equally corrupt. Nothing will be done, unless Arab Spring type pressures are mounted beginning with:
    Blockade of all logging & oil palm accesses.
    Blockade of all CMS & related’s access & movements.
    Work stoppage. Sit-ins in offices, transport hubs & airports.

    “Look at the Sarawak Chief Minister selling billions worth of timber concessions under the table; selling every piece of state land to businessmen without tender; using his own companies to obtain lucrative government contracts; … 'you pay I approve'. He has 8 billion US stashed overseas.” “while thousands of poor people still live in cardboard makeshift homes; have no water and shit into the river.” “In China people have been shot for embezzling one thousand dollars. With 8 billion you have stolen, therefore you would be shot 80 thousand times.” – George Soros

    next is welfare,we try to look into all the walfare of the dayak in all the rural areas.what are the way we can do,to help our people.

    the other most significant is education,we seek all the available means to give our people the best education.
