TAWAU: DAP Sabah Publicity Secretary, Chan Foong Hin has asked Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) to make a clear stand before the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) on illegal immigrants is set up.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak is expected to announce the setting up of the RCI when he visits the state next month.
Chan said though DAP Sabah welcomed the setting up of the RCI on illegals, it must come with a solution and result.
He said according to the opinion poll conducted by Merdeka Centre, 88 per cent of voters in Kota Kinabalu and Penampang wanted the RCI to be set up.
“The government should address this issue immediately and not to disappoint the people again,” he said.
“PBS is asked to make a clear stand that if Najib does not announce the setting up of the RCI during the harvest festival, will PBS leave BN to show its sincerity to the people?” he asked.
“Secondly, if RCI was announced, PBS should clarify RCI’s criteria and authority to resolve the problem of illegals in Sabah.
“Thirdly, if the BN government could not fulfill the expectation of the RCI, will PBS be brave enough to object?
“And finally, if the RCI report is published but the authorities never take action on it, will PBS leave BN?” he asked.
He said PBS as a party that represents Sabahan interest in the Barisan Nasional should be brave and speak for Sabahans.
Chan challenged PBS leaders to make their stand clear on the questions above.
“This is the last war of dignity for PBS. They should stand up and show their courage to the people,” Chan concluded. (theborneopost)

ReplyDeleteIt shows that Sabahans really want to make changes.
DeleteThe illegal immigrant issue is the main bane of contention among voters in Kota Kinabalu and Penampang, just ahead of the election.
ReplyDeletesemua rakyat Sabah inginkan RCI ditubuhkan, RCI adalah jalan untuk selesaikan isu PATI di Sabah.
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed.
Deletesemoga pada lawatan Najib berikutnya ke Sabah, dia akan mengumumkan penubuhan RCI.
ReplyDeletePBS begitu bersungguh2 untuk menuntut RCI ditubuhkan sampai sanggup mahu keluar BN kalau tidak diumumkan pada Pesta Menuai nanti.
ReplyDeleteThat's why. I don't know why DAP accuses PBS in such a way.
DeletePenubuhan RCI akan diumukan tidak lama lagi.
ReplyDeleteSaya percaya dengan janji kerajaan.
ReplyDeletesememangnya RCI merupakan isu yang paling 'panas' dan tanpa penyelesaian di Sabah
ReplyDeletelagipun, penubuhan RCI ini adalah permintaan dari rakyat Sabah
ReplyDeleteramai yang menyatakan kebimbangan mereka jika RCI tidak dilaksanakan, PRU tidak akan berlaku adil dan tidak akan ada masa depan lagi bagi Sabah
ReplyDeletekebanyakan rakyat Sabah telah menyatakan keinginan mereka untuk melihat RCI dilaksanakan sebelum GE13
ReplyDeleteberharap terma rujukan khusus RCI itu dapat dirumuskan secepat mungkin
ReplyDeletesaya rasa Sabah sudah semakin hampir dengan RCI.. hanya di era pentadbiran Najib baru lah saya rasa ada harapan untuk negeri ini bebas dari ancaman PATI..
ReplyDeletepenubuhan RCI memerlukan dana yang besar.. oleh itu saya harap suruhanjaya ini telah dirancang sebaik2nya dengan mengambilkira semua faktor agar penubuhannya tidak sia2..
