Welcome back Remaung6Renjer After years of not blogging, today Remaung6renjer is back again. Thanks to blogger for enabling me to recover my "lost" blog. The time is just perfect for me to blog again due to these two reasons:- 

1. Completed my studies from Bachelor to Master Degree. For the past 5 years, I had been struggling with preparing my assignments as such unable to blog. With the completion of my studies (before continuing to Phd) I now can concentrate on blogging to spread the "Not Fake" news to all the Dayak in Sarawak. 

2. As we all heard yesterday, that Malaysian Parliament is dissolving today, and I hope this blog could help to spread the news why the Dayak particularly the Iban should not vote for BN. During this election, this blog will be a tool for me to campaign among the Iban. 

To all the readers out there, please keep supporting me.

Bukit Gelugor By Election - DAP Candidate Ramkarpal racing against dad in bid for record win

Saturday, 24th May 2014
Kuantan, Pahang


Ramkarpal the late Karpal Singh third son is expected to win Bukit Gelugor by-election but the big  question is whether he can win with bigger majority compare to his late father. Let's all wait for the result which is going to be known tomorrow, Sunday, 25th May 2014.

Since he was nominated on May 12 until today, DAP Bukit Gelugor candidate Ramkarpal Singh Deo’s daily schedule has been packed with programmes from dawn till long past midnight.

Today, the last day of campaigning before voters head to cast their ballots tomorrow, was no exception.

Despite the mega ceramah at Han Chiang High that went on well past the witching hour, the 38-year-old was up at the crack of dawn today to begin his final round of markets visits — popular haunts on the weekend — to meet and greet his potential future constituents.

“From Day One, I’ve not had a moment of rest due to the back-to-back programmes,” the lawyer told The Malay Mail Online during a rare break on his marathon campaign trail at the DAP Bukit Gelugor operations centre here.

The third son of the late Bukit Gelugor MP Karpal Singh was kept on a fast-paced punishing schedule to make his presence felt almost everywhere. It worked. He was warmly received at all the events he attended.

Most of the constituents acted familiar with the political greenhorn, albeit as “Karpal’s son”.

Wherever he went, crowds flocked, curious and eager for an up-close-and-personal glimpse of the man who would inherit the mantle of the Tiger of Jelutong, as Karpal was known for decades.

Ramkarpal was frequently stopped on his walkabout with requests for group photos. Some even asked for his autograph on the DAP Bukit Gelugor pamphlets that were being handed.

In the absence of contest from the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition in the Bukit Gelugor race, Ramkarpal believed he is likely to take the MP’s hat but played down his confidence, voicing his biggest fear that the number of voters may not be as many of the turnout in last year’s general election.

“Voters turnout is really a major concern as some, who are outstation, may not even come back to vote. We need to reach out to as many voters as possible to get them to come out to vote,” Ramkarpal said.

The Bukit Gelugor parliamentary seat, covering three state constituencies of Paya Terubong, Air Itam and Seri Delima, was triggered by Karpal’s sudden demise after a car crash last month.

The constituency, with 82,431 registered voters, is a DAP stronghold after Karpal wrested it from MCA in 2004. He had retained the seat in the last two general elections with bigger vote majorities each time, garnering 42,706 vote majority last year.

Certain of retaining the seat when MCA has bowed out from contesting in the by-election, DAP’s campaign had initially focused on securing an even bigger majority while introducing Ramkarpal as a capable lawyer who happens to be Karpal’s son.

By the second week, the party realised that many constituents, especially those in the low income group areas of Air Itam and Paya Terubong, were not aware that they are within the Bukit Gelugor constituency.

The party had started sending out postcards to all registered voters with information of their voting centres to encourage them to come out to vote.

At the DAP ceramah, held mostly twice a night at two different locations within residential areas, the party had been constantly reminding registered voters to turn up at the polling centres and cast their ballot tomorrow.

Karpal had garnered a total 56,303 votes last year while MCA’s Teh Beng Yeam got 13,597 votes.

The only real hurdle that may trip the party in its quest to secure a rousing victory would be the low numbers that often plague by-elections compared to a general elections.

The voters turnout last general election was 86.3 per cent, one of the highest in the country.

Ramkarpal is facing a four-corner fight against Parti Cinta Malaysia’s Datuk Huan Cheng Guan and independent candidates Mohd Nabi Bux Mohd Sathar and Abu Backer Sidek Mohammad Zan.

Let's All pray to god  for DAP to retain this parliamentary seat with bigger majority!

Condolence To Karpal "The Tiger Of Jelutong" Family

Kuantan
17th April 2014

 Just finished reading the bibliography book about Karpal Singh entitled "Karpal Singh Tiger Of Jelutong" last week,and this morning the whole Malaysians were stunned by the sudden demised of  Mr Karpal Singh due to traffic accident. 

As Tim Donoghue put it in the bibliography, Karpal Singh was one of Malaysia's most prominent lawyers and a controversial figure both in the law and politics. Ever since I heard about Karpal Singh while I was still serving in the Armed Forces, he was always an outspoken advocate of human right in Malaysia for more than 40 years, both as lawyer and politicians. His sudden demised is a  big lose to Malaysia.  If I were asked to choose, I prefer those useless and racist Malaysians liked Zulkifli Nordin, Ibrahim Katak or Dr Mahathir to die first. But now we have to accept the fact that Malaysia had just lost its  most valuable son. Hopefully all of his children will be able to continue his struggle.

How Did He Pass Away.

May Your Soul Rest In Peace Karpal Singh Tiger of Jelutong

KAMPAR: Bukit Gelugor MP and veteran DAP leader Karpal Singh was killed when the car he was travelling in collided with a five-tonne lorry near Gua Tempurung on the North South Expressway here early Thursday.

The impact of the crash at about 1am killed the prominent lawyer and his assistant, C Michael, on the spot. Karpal's son, Ramkarpal, and the car's driver, C Selvam, were injured.

Karpal's Indonesian domestic helper was also injured and is in critical condition.

He was on his way to Penang to attend a court case later in the day.

In 2005, Karpal was involved in an accident which left him paralysed and wheelchair-bound. He was returning to his home in Penang when a car hit his taxi at the rear.

Karpal graduated from University of Singapore and started his law practice before becoming a DAP politician in 1978.

He recently stepped down as DAP chairman pending his appeal against a sedition charge of uttering seditious words against the Sultan of Perak in 2009.

Earlier report:

DAP leader Karpal Singh died after the vehicle he was travelling in was involved in a crash near Gopeng, Perak on the North-South highway at 1.30am.

It was believed that 74-year-old Bukit Gelugor MP was travelling from Kuala Lumpur to Penang to attend a court hearing later in the morning when the accident occurred. 

The Toyota Alphard, he was in along with three passengers including his son Ramkarpal, was believed to have collided with a lorry before going out of control.

His son Gobind Singh Deo, when contacted, confirmed that Karpal had died on the spot in the accident.

"His assistant Michael (Selvam) was also killed in the accident while the driver is critically injured.

"My brother Ram is slightly injured but we are trying to get through to him," he said when contacted at 3.30am.

Gobind, who is Puchong MP, added that he was in Kuala Lumpur at the time of incident and will be heading to the accident site.

In 2005, Karpal was involved in an accident which left him paralysed and wheelchair-bound. He was returning to his home in Penang when a car hit his taxi at the rear.

Karpal graduated from University of Singapore and started his law practice before becoming a DAP politician in 1978.

He recently stepped down as DAP chairman pending his appeal against a sedition charge of uttering seditious words against the Sultan of Perak in 2009.

"R.I.P to Karpal Singh : Tiger of Jelutong". May his soul rests in peace

Why the Double Standard: BERSIH 2.0 VS UMNO NGO Rally Against LGE?

Kuching
Saturday, 2nd July 2011

Please look at the photo below. Is it a rally or not. If it is a rally, why Kerismuddin the Home Minister or his police agent did not take any action? To the readers from outside Malaysia, this is how this country is being run by UMNO..the Double Standard.

BERSIH 2.0 has been labelled by UMNO, UTUSAN MLAYSIA and POLICE as a threat to national security and several of the leaders and politicians that showed their supports to the rally have been questioned by (UMNO) police, BUT when UMNO NGO did the rally against the Pakatan Rakyat leaders(hip) they were praised by the GAMPANG UTUSAN MALAYSIA!....

After reading one of the headline in UTUSAN MALAYSIA this morning, I only have one word to describe this UMNO Newspaper....GAMPANG.
If it is the activity organise by NGO supported by Pakatan Rakyat they will use UMNO police to harass them by all ways inclusive of put them under ISA, and this GAMPANG will condemn their (NGO) action as not Malaysian culture to rally and label them as the traitor to justify the action of UMNO police for putting them under ISA.
Thus it is wise for Tok Guru Nik Azis  and the rest of the peace loving Malaysians to boycott this GAMPANG Utusan Malaysia!

DAP Exposes Taib's Evil Doing In DUN

Kuching
Sunday, 26th June 2011

Wong Ho Leng Demands Explanation Why Government Lands Were Awarded To Taib's Brother.

The votes that they gave to Masing and the rest of the Iban YB From BN in the Just Concluded State Election have been used to Rob their NCR Lands but with Wong Hong Leng and the rest of DAP YB presence in the August House, the Iban can now be assured that  Masing and the rest of  Iban Lanun will not be able to rob their NCR lands easily....www.Bukittunggal.Com

Eventhought BN Nasional managed to defend Sarawak and obtained more that two third majority, but with more DAP assemblymen presence this time round the DUN Sitting is not going to be an easy ride for BNs' Assemblymen.
So far I am really proud with all the DAP Assemblymen who have been asking questions and condemned  the Barisan Nasional especially with matter related to Iban's interests. Whether they are aware or not that they are being betrayed by their dayak assemblymen but with DAP assemblymen around the dayak especially the Iban whose NCR lands have been subjected to the JV can now rely on DAP's assemlymen to protect their most valuable assets the NCR Land...hopefully.
Please see the article cited from Free Malaysiakini about Hong Ho Leng from DAP demanded explanation from the August House why the land in Sibu which was first acquired by the non-bumiputera own company but at the end was given to Taib Mahmud's brother in 2007.

Bukit Assek state assemblyperson Wong Ho Leng has demanded to know why a huge parcel of land was alienated to a company owned by Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud's brother, Ibrahim, and Sibu Municipal Council (SMC) chairman Tiong Thai King.
Wong, also Sarawak state legislative assembly opposition leader, said Ibrahim and Tiong, who is also Lanang member of parliament, are already "multi billionaires".
The 3,000-acre land should have been alienated to PJ Green Field Sdn Bhd, a reputable agriculture company, and not to Victoria Square Development Sdn Bhd, he said.
He added that PJ Green Field Sdn Bhd with some 90 farmers had applied for the alienation of the land located at the south of Loba Kabong forest reserve, about 9km northwest of Sibu town, for mixed crop agricultural development.

Wong (above) was speaking yesterday during the debate on the motion of thanks after Yang di-Pertua Negeri Abang Muhamad Salahuddin Abang Barieng's opening address.
"The proposed area is classified as a mixed zone land.
"The company proposed to plant mandarin oranges, coffee and aloe vera," he said, adding that these agriculture activities will create employment and rejuvenate the entire west bank of Batang Igan.
Big dreams, big plans, big letdown
The application, dated Nov 28, 2003, was rejected in October 2006.
Wong said the company then learnt that the land in question was alienated as Lot 63 Block 6 Engkilo Land District to Victoria Square Development Sdn Bhd in April 2007.
He said: "Why are people of different spectrum treated differently? The land ought to be given to the farmers."
He added that on Dec 12, 2007, slightly over a year later, PJ Green Field was informed that the land that they had applied for was likely subject to native customary rights .
"This is a lie. How can native customary rights not be determinable by 2007?
"Above all else, how could this land be likely subject to native customary rights when it could be alienated to Victoria Square Development Sdn Bhd eight months earlier?" he asked.
Wong asked Taib, who is also the minister of planning and resource management, to inform the House whether political reasons underlay the alienation exercise.
He said the government should encourage reputable farmers to apply for agriculture land, since there are so much suitable state reserve land available.
"I have said before in this House that our state must encourage agricultural activities as well as diversify," he said, adding that the state must spread into other agriculture sectors and not just focus on oil palm alone as the international price of palm oil fluctuates.

Pakatan Rakyat Warns BN Sarawak That They Will Be Closely Monitored By Shadow cabinet

Kuching
Monday, 2nd May 2011

PR Sarawak which met here in Kuching yesterday had formed-up the "Shadow-Cabinet". The purpose of the shadow cabinet was to watch the Sarawak Cabinet under Taib Mahmud in performing their duties. To Taib Mahmud and the cronies, be warned that every step that you made will be under closed watch of the PR.

The DAP, which won the biggest of seats in the April 16 election, also holds the biggest number of portfolios.

When spoke to the press, State opposition leader and DAP chief, Wong Ho Leng, said :-

The move is to enable PR to better monitor the overall performance of the BN government under Taib Mahmud the longest serving CM in Malaysia. Other than that the purpose of this "shadow cabinet" is to come up with alternatives to show electorate how we could better administer the state if we are in power.
The shadow member responsible (for a particular portfolio) will have to come with alternative and constructive proposals. DAP, PKR and PAS will never come up with proposals that are destructive.

State PKR chief, Baru Bian, is tasked with native customary rights (NCR) and land development.

The other portfolios are split as follows:

Ibans are not represented

Despite being the largest group in Sarawak but Iban were not nominated to any potfolio in this shadow cabinet. What happened to PR? Are you forgotten that without the Iban there is no way that the Pakatan Rakyat could wrest Sarawak from BN. Whether like or not, in order to take over or to deny BN of 2/3 majority in Sarawak PR must not exclude the Iban.
As for PKR, as I wrote in my earlier postings, there is no way that the party which is a Semenanjung based party could represent ther Iban better than Sarawak National Party (SNAP) or  Parti Asal Kitai as their new tag line for the party. Therefore if PR intends to overthrow the BN from Petra Jaya, PKR must forget its self interest and accept the merger between DAP and SNAP. The blends between way of campaigning by DAP and the Iban support of SNAP, within five years time, PR will be able to take Petra Jaya from BN and subsequently   taking back our NCR lands and natural resources from Taib Mahmud, his family members and cronies.

Kit Siang Proposes DAP and SNAP Merger

Kuching
Tuesday, 19th April 2011

After directly involved in the campaign for SNAP I now realised that SNAP is lack of infrastructure and Coordination. In order to wrest Sarawak from BN, SNAP must partner itself with the strong and established party like DAP. PKR with it internal problem has failed to unite the Ibans. DAP compare to PKR is more stable thus will be able to guide and unite the Iban. I strongly supported Lim Kit Siang proposal for SNAP and DAP merger.

DAP parliamentary leader and MP for Ipoh Timor Lim Kit Siang today proposed that DAP and the Sarawak National Party (SNAP) merge in time for the next general election in order to better serve the Iban-Dayak community.

He said that such a merger would accelerate the Iban-Dayak political awakening following the recently concluded Sarawak general election.

“Sarawak DAP cannot rest on its laurels having won 12 seats in the Sarawak state election, but must prepare immediately for the next general election which is not far off.

“From now till the next general election, DAP leaders, members and supporters must work with Pakatan Rakyat partners to reach out to all Sarawakians including Ibans-Dayaks and Malay-Melanaus,” he said in a statement today.

He added that in the next general election, Pakatan parties must avoid multi-cornered contests which can only benefit the Barisan Nasional (BN).

“For this reason, I would even suggest that DAP and SNAP should seriously consider a merger of the two political parties to accelerate Iban-Dayak political awakening,” he said.

In the run-up to the Sarawak polls, DAP’s Pakatan ally PKR and SNAP failed to solve seat arrangements, resulting in the two parties contesting in 24 seats together with BN.

SNAP which contested in 27 seats lost all, with all but one of its candidates losing their deposit. PKR contested in 49 seats and won only two. The party blamed SNAP for being the spoiler.

DAP emerged as the biggest winner from Pakatan by winning 12 of the 15 seats it contested, all of which were in the urban and Chinese-majority areas.

Inroads in rurals seats too

Lim also brushed aside talks that DAP was only interested in the interest of urban Chinese.

“Thanks to enemy propaganda in the controlled mass media in the past decades, DAP is projected and perceived by some as a Chinese party.

“This is a perception that the DAP must eliminate so that all Malaysians can accept and support us as a political movement committed to the betterment of the welfare of all Malaysians, regardless of race, religion or region,” he said.

He also pointed out that Pakatan also won rural (Ba’Kelalan and Krian) and semi-rural (Batu Kawah, Dudong and Piasau) seats in Sarawak.

These victories, he said, smashed the myth that the opposition received support only in urban areas.

He quoted political scientist Bridget Welsh’s analysis that Pakatan’s gains in semi-rural seats were more than in the other areas: 19.7% compared with 14.8% in the rural areas and 13.4% in the urban communities.

He added that the Bidayuh seats were most impressive – for although Pakatan failed to win a single one of the Bidayuh seats, there was a 17.9% swing in the Bidayuh votes in favour of the opposition.

Lim said that there were encouraging statistics and inspiring pointers for Pakatan in the next general election in Sarawak.

Latest Revelations By DAP On Sarawak’s Budget Black Hole

Kuching
Friday, 20th August 2010

Taken From Sarawak Report

Scandal highlighted by DAP

Taib Mahmud, the Chief Minister of Sarawak, has failed to account for a staggering RM 4.8 billion of government expenditure over the past 3 years alone, according to explosive figures released by the opposition DAP party. This represents more than half the Development Budget, which in turn represents nearly three quarters of the total expenditure for the State!

Put another way, in 2009 RM 1.825 billion of the State’s total expenditure was allocated to persons unknown, compared to the government’s estimated revenue for that year of RM 3.726 billion. That is about half of all your cash!

The secret projects soaking up Sarawak’s cash

The DAP, who recently triumphed over BN at the Sibu by-election, have produced a closely argued Alternative Budget for 2010, in which they demand a return to proper accounting methods, so that taxpayers can know exactly how their money has been spent. This is their right and it is also Malaysian law, in line with the rest of the civilised world.

The DAP figures show that Taib has not only reserved 80% of the State’s entire Development Budget to the three Ministries controlled directly by himself, but that shockingly most of that money has been spent on secret projects about which he has provided zero information.

Under the circumstances the people of Sarawak are entitled to assume that the money has been stolen. As the DAP points out:

“This [state of affairs] defies the basic principle of political accountability in a democratic system and is susceptible to great abuses”.

So let us all guess what those abuses might be and where the money might have gone. Some on more Rolls Royces for the Chief Minister? Some on more foreign properties for his family? Some on bailing out projects by Taib-owned companies?

The Chief Minister appears to think he can get away with not telling people where he has decided to spend this money, but we can be comfortably certain that none of these secret projects involve benefitting any of the impoverished people whose lands he has taken for palm plantations now owned by his family and friends.

The “Government Contribution Towards Approved Agencies Trust Fund”

So what is going on and how has all this money disappeared?

The DAP budget documents provides a detailed analysis. Firstly, it outlines the extraordinary level of personal control that Taib has assumed over Sarawak’s expenditure. The septuagenarian personally manages the three main spending departments in the State. This means that almost every spending decision has to go through him and that no other Minister can do anything without getting his permission.

In particular his three ministries (the Finance Ministry, Planning and Resources Ministry and Chief Ministry) together control 80% of the Development Budget, which alone accounts for around three quarters of all money spent, although it is argued many of the projects would more sensibly belong under different departments.

Secondly, the document explains the secretive system that the Chief Minister has developed for allocating more half this huge sum of money. Over the past several years he has employed a highly mysterious expenditure category termed the ‘Government Contribution towards Approved Agencies Trust Fund’ into which this money is channelled. There is no specification as to who these ‘Approved Agencies’ are or which Trust Fund is being referred to and the Government has consistently refused requests for information on the subject! It could be going to his aunty, or his sister, or cousins, or kids, or secret mistress…… how is anyone supposed to know and what right has he to keep it secret?

Thus, in 2009 RM 1.825 billion (59.3% of the total RM 2.430 billion) is unaccounted for in the Development Budget, according to the DAP calculations. In 2008 it was RM1.719 billion (60% of the total RM2.865 billion) and in 2007 it was RM1.257 billionn (54.8% of the total RM2.294 billion). The DAP raise the valid question as to what is the point of carefully auditing 40% of the budget if the remaining 60% is kept secret?

The truth must be told

We can only assume that the ‘Approved Agencies’ must be outfits the Chief Minister would rather we did not know about. Certainly, if these ‘Approved Agencies’ were doing any good to the people he is supposed to serve, then he would be broadcasting the fact next to a picture of himself in every page of the Borneo Post!

However, he is not and therefore we can safely conclude that they are just doing good for the Taib family and their business cronies, like so many of his other projects.

Death of Teoh Beng Huat-The True Colour of Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and UMNO Prevails

As expected, today Utusan Malaysia (an UMNO Controlled Newspaper), carried out a front page coverage of a death of a young DAP politician late Teoh Beng Hock. But the coverage was not condemning the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) a government agency that is controlled by Malay dominant party , United Malay National Organisation for their negligence that caused the death of Beng Hock.

As expected, they tried to potray that MACC was not responsible for Beng Hock death. They accused that DAP was involved. The newspaper also reported that MACC found a weblog that can help in their investigation. This was confirmed by MACC Deputy Head , Datuk Abdul Kassim Ahmad. According to Kassim they found a weblog http://www.t4tbh.blogspot.com/ that could help them in their investigation. It was believed that the weblog was written by late Beng Hock friend who was sympatized with him. And according to Utusan Malaysia, Ahmad Said Hamdan when contacted and asked about the weblog , did not want to comment as he himself had not read the contents of the weblog yet. But for me it was a “sandiwara” or a farce by UMNO. I dont want to elaborate on the contents of the weblog but I have these to comment :-

(1) The whole things were UMNO creation/tactic or Modus of Operandi (the same words used in the Blog). They used Beng Hock who could not tell the truth anymore. (2) The evidents collected from the weblog are more credible than a Statutory Declaration. Remember a Statutory Declaration made by popular blogger Raja Petra on the involvement of PM Najib and Rosmah in the Mongolian beauty Alantuya Sharibu murder case. What happened to the person who had made the declaration and the persons implicated in the declaration? (3) So much have been reported in the blogs about the corruption involve the BN politicians. One of them is Taib Mahmud, Sarawak Chief Minister and the longest serving Chief Minister in Malaysia. Why until now neither he or any members of his family were prosecuted or being called for investigation ? (4) MACC has been desperately looking for a scapegoat. In this case they made Teoh Beng Huat as their scape goat. Remember they did this in Perak.

As all known, UMNO and PM Najib will trying all out to weaken the ties and cooperations amongst the opposition. During 2008 election, the Oppsition pack used corruption practices among the Barisan Nasional politicians as their campaign subjects.It is now UMNO/barisan Nasional turn to use the same point to win the people supports. They started in Perak and with the help of Perak royalty and the court process they managed to take over Perak from Pakatan Rakyat. They also did the same thing in Penang, Kedah and Selangor but they failed. In Selangor they started with corruption case against Tan Sri Khalid- with the Cow and Car case. That why some had suggested that MACC to be named as Malaysian Anti-Car and Cow Commission. Lim Guang Eng is still very clean same goes to Kedah Chief Minister. Well, we all know now that the whole things, what happened in Selangor today is a part of UMNO/Barisan Nasional plan to take over power from Pakatan. As for me ,am predicted that these three important events will be happening soon :- (1) UMNO/Barisan will go all out to takeover Selangor (Why Selangor ? Simply because Selangor is the gateway to Malaysia and also the richest and the most developed state in Malaysia) from Pakatan Rakyat . They will employ these two government agencies ...MACC and Malaysian Royal Police to fulfill their plan. (2) Datuk Seri Anwar will be found guilty and put in prison. (3) Next, after UMNO/Barisan Nasional managed to influence the population that Pakatan Rakyat governments are corrupted, Najib will call for General Election. From Day-1, of the creation of MACC, I never have any trust in it. No matter what name they name it , as long as it's put under the politician, what to say if reporting to the Prime Minister, the agency will not going to be credible and fair. As for me, I prefer calling MACC as Malaysian Anti-Chinese Commission instead of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission. Mupok aku “Agi Idup Agi Ngelaban”
