KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah Chief Minister, as chairman of Yayasan Sabah, and not the Director of Forestry, should clarify the Business Times report as there seems to be more behind the purported timber deal of some 80,937 hectares (199,995 acres) to be awarded to Permaju Holdings Sdn. Bhd. by Yayasan Sabah (YS).
Datuk Dr.Jeffrey Kitingan, Chairman of STAR SABAH said this in response to the mere denial by the Director of Forestry to the news report of the alleged timber deal in the Business Times on Monday.
He complained that the Director of Forestry is being used as a mouthpiece to deflect the issue and avoid the real facts and his mere denial is out of context as the deal was reported to be with Yayasan Sabah and the CM.
It is the CM who is having direct control of YS, not the of Director Forestry, hence he is the appropriate person to answer issues regarding the timber deal.
He said that many answers need to be given so that allegations of timber kickbacks like the RM40 million "donation" to Umno Sabah will not arise.
"Why should YS award such a huge area of concession and land to such a company at this time?" he demanded. "Who stands to benefit? And why are outsiders given priority in award of concession and land instead of Sabahans?
"If there is no truth to the alleged timber deal, why is the report so detailed? If the report is not true, the Government should consider suing the parties involved and lodging of the relevant reports with the police, MACC and other law enforcement bodies.
"Conversely, if the report is true, which will not be surprising, it means that the State government is selling the future of YS, the State and Sabahans and the Umno/BN State Government should rightly be voted and kicked out in the coming general elections."
He reiterated the STAR's stance that the future of Sabah lies in the hands of us Sabahans, not outsiders or Sabahans under the control of outsiders.
The Yayasan Sabah group has allocated a special fund of RM50,000 to assist students from poor families in the state’s north-east coastal zon
ReplyDeleteWith this special fund, students from poor families could further their studies. All thanks to the Yayasan Sabah group.
DeletePeruntukan harus digunakan dengan bijak, jangan mensia-siakan bantuan yang diberi.
DeleteThe Yayasan Sabah funds will be distributed to needy children from Tanjung Papat, Elopura, Karamunting, Sekong, Sibuga, Gum-Gum, Sukau, Kuamut, Labuk and Sugut state assembly constituencies.
ReplyDeleteThis assistance has been carried out since 2007, involving 50 children from each state constituency
DeleteHope that the Yayasan Sabah funds will continue to give assistance to the needy.
DeleteYayasan Sabah Funds must ensure that the children are indeed from a poor family before assisting them. A background check is required.
DeleteKerajaan sentiasa mengutamakan kebajikan untuk rakyat.

ReplyDeleteInno Fisheries Sdn Bhd, a wholly-owned company of Yayasan Sabah, and Darden Aquafarm, a subsidiary of Darden Inc, owner of Red Lobster and other US seafood restaurant chains, will jointly develop a RM2 billion Integrated Lobster Aquaculture Park (iLAP) project off Pulau Timbun Mata, Semporna in eastern Sabah.
ReplyDeletethe proposed project, the world’s first iLAP, will cover 9,300 hectares, comprising 6,000ha for commercial tropical lobster production, 700ha for research and development, training farm and demonstration farm, and 2,600ha for mussel production.
DeleteThe project is expected to generate 12,000 job opportunities when fully completed by 2020, and locals can participate as contract farmers or as entrepreneurs through a buy-back scheme
Deleteforeign direct investments through this project, but we are also creating job opportunities for locals and create economic spin-offs in Semporna
Deleteeven more significant is that locals are allowed to participate directly in the project through contract farming or through buy-back schemes

ReplyDeleteWhen Yong Teck Lee says that SAPP is fighting for native rights, he is simply lying. When he was the chief minister [1996–1998], lands allocated to natives were actually ‘stolen’ and given to public-listed companies.
JEFFREY, WHAT DO THINK ABOUT YONG TECK LEE WHO GIVE AWAY OUR VALUABLE FOREST TO HIS CRONIES COVERING THE SIZE OF 5 TIMES BIGGER THAN SINGAPORE?
ReplyDeleteA good example is the Tongod Region where not less than 20,000 acres of land earlier set aside for native socio-economic projects, under the ‘Tongod Regional Planning Study’, mooted during the Berjaya era, were given away to a public-listed company. This is blatant Daylight Robbery!!
JEFFREY, WHAT DO THINK ABOUT YONG TECK LEE WHO GIVE AWAY OUR VALUABLE FOREST TO HIS CRONIES COVERING THE SIZE OF 5 TIMES BIGGER THAN SINGAPORE?
ReplyDeleteThe BN government under Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Haji Aman is now trying to make the situation goof for the victims. Before long, once the paperwork and legal applications have been completed, the people in Tongod will be issued with Communal Titles.
JEFFREY, WHAT DO THINK ABOUT YONG TECK LEE WHO GIVE AWAY OUR VALUABLE FOREST TO HIS CRONIES COVERING THE SIZE OF 5 TIMES BIGGER THAN SINGAPORE?
ReplyDeleteDuring the tenure of Yong Teck Lee in as little as 2 years, he approved some 265 logging licences covering over 300,000 ha (an area 5 times larger than the island of Singapore). These licences were given to cronies, associates, non-Sabahans included, and is clearly an act of gross irresponsibility at the expense of environmental conservation, sustainability and public interest.
JEFFREY, WHAT DO THINK ABOUT YONG TECK LEE WHO GIVE AWAY OUR VALUABLE FOREST TO HIS CRONIES COVERING THE SIZE OF 5 TIMES BIGGER THAN SINGAPORE?
ReplyDeleteThe delegation of authority to approve logging areas given by Cabinet to Datuk Yong Teck Lee as CM, was well and truly taken advantage of and abused by Yong to reward his friends, cronies and supporters.

ReplyDeletein the forest sector Musa has done a wonderful job as he has been pursuing for good forest and environmental governance in the interest of future generations to come. Recently, The Sabah Forestry Department had decided to re-gazette 183,000 hectares of Class 2 Commercial Forests into Class 1 Protection Forests to expand the expanse of totally protected forests in the state.

ReplyDeleteThis “bold” upward reclassification exercise involves principally lowland forest ecosystem in Ulu Segama and Gunung Rara Forest Reserves, in pursuance of Musa’s decision. This exercise shall mean that Danum Valley on its eastern fringes will be buffered by totally protected forests and in particular, the biologically rich Ulu Segama Forest Reserve (127,890 hectares) can no longer be logged now or in the future because of legislative protection.

ReplyDeleteThe latest decision by Musa will increase the area under total protection to about 1,300,000 hectares or some 17.5 per cent of Sabah’s total land area, exceeding the IUCN standard of 10 percent. Musa’s model of good governance is being applauded within the country and beyond. The way he has won the hearts of people of Sabah and his popularity at the national level shows that ‘Good governance is also good politics’.

Yong Teck Lee better not think that he is no longer involved now that he has left BN.
DeleteYTL is not relevant in Sabah.
DeleteSabah has a 40-year-history of bad forest management, which the charismatic Director General of the Sabah Forestry Department (SFD), Sam Mannan, openly admits.
ReplyDeleteThe SFD and FSC had announced the certification of another 300,000 hectares of prime habitat for orangutans and pygmy elephants, as well as hundreds of lesser known species comprising Borneo’s rich biological wealth.
ReplyDeleteMalaysia has always subscribed to international best practices that ensure protection and conservation of its environment.
DeleteThis means that the forest will continue to generate timber to feed an increasingly hungry global market, but will also preserve the other values that lie within.
ReplyDeletePemuliharaan hutan harus sentiasa diutamakan.
DeleteThat’s the type of balance that FSC seeks to achieve. And it is through the General Assembly, for all its controlled chaos, that the FSC will be able to get there.
ReplyDeleteFrom the boreal forests of Canada to the tropical forests of Borneo, the FSC is the standard for good forest management. FSC certification has become a globally recognized indicator that a product’s wood comes from a forest that has been managed to protect social, environmental and economic needs.
ReplyDeleteProtecting that balance is crucial in the global marketplace, where “sustainability” is becoming an increasingly important buzzword. It’s why the FSC tree-and-checkmark logo is popping up on furniture, decking material, copy paper and even diapers.
ReplyDeleteThe FSC is not your normal organization with a well-oiled and hierarchical decision-making machine.
ReplyDeleteRather, the Board of Directors, the membership, issue-based working groups and every other entity or process associated with the FSC seeks balanced representation from the economic, social and environmental communities.
ReplyDeleteThese groups must also include representation from both the “north” and the “south,” or from both developed and developing economies.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, the FSC is designed to ensure that the interests and perspectives of its diverse stakeholders are adequately considered at every step of the process.
ReplyDeleteWhile the state government is currently
ReplyDeleteundertaking measures to develop
alternative sources of revenue, it is also
committed to rectifying this deteriorating
forestry situation, and returning the forest to
greater profitability through sustainable
forest management practices.
This is consistent with the national commitment to
ReplyDeleteachieve the International Tropical Timber Organization’s Objective ‘to implement a strategy for achieving exports of tropical timber and timber products from sustainably managed sources’.
Hope that the poor families will benefit from the special fund assistance.
ReplyDeleteThe state government pursue forest development programmes through forest conservation and rehabilitation operations in accordance

INI KALILAH!!! Ini lah yang dilontarkan oleh penyokong STAR apabila mendapati Parti STAR dipersendakan oleh Pakatan Rakyat termasuk SAPP (Pakatan UBF Kunu). Buktinya amat jelas sekali apabila baru-baru ini Anwar Ibrahim mengumumkan persetujuan antara PKR dan SAPP dalam pembahagian kerusi dalam PRU13 di mana SAPP dibagi 35 kerusi DUN dan 2 kerusi Parlimen dan selebihnya diperuntukkan kepada PKR-DAP-PAS.
ReplyDeleteMana perginya pembahagian kerusi untuk STAR ni??? Apa sudah jadi ni??? Ternyata Pakatan Rakyat tidak mengiktiraf STAR sebagai parti yang kuat. Yang lebih jelas lagi adalah tindakan Yong Teck Lee dan parti SAPP nya sudah membuka jalan rundingan yang awal dengan Pakatan Rakyat untuk menguasai Sabah kunu.
ReplyDeleteThey aim to manage the Permanent Forest Reserves so as to maximize social, economic and environmental benefits for the state and its people in accordance with the principles of sustainable forest management.
ReplyDeleteTimbul juga persoalan di sini apa sudah jadi dengan agenda UBF ni yang kononnya penggabungan parti STAR, SAPP dan USNO? Hahaha….menuju ke arah perpecahan adalah…umpama kerjasama yang rapuh. Kenapa??? Sebab SAPP telah membelakangi STAR dan UBF dengan mengadakan rundingan sulit untuk menguasai Sabah.
ReplyDeletePakatan Rakyat meletakkan SAPP sebagai calon tunggal parti tempatan Sabah sebagai satu formula gandingan pakatan Rakyat berbanding dengan penguasaan 3 parti utama bukan dari Parti tempatan untuk mematahkan penguasaan BN di Malaysia Timur.
ReplyDeleteSAPP harus mencari formula untuk kerjasama dengan pembangkang lain.
DeleteAs well as to ensure proper utilisation of forest
ReplyDeleteresources from land that is not classified as Permanent Forest Reserves through careful planning and in cooperation with land development agencies before the land is alienated, in order to maximize the returns by means of suitable harvesting and processing methods.
Di dalam kegairahan Pakatan Rakyat dan SAPP untuk membuat percaturan kerusi, dilihat seolah-olah kewujudan STAR yang sepatutnya amat bersinar di pandang sepi dan malap oleh Pakatan Rakyat dan dipersenda kemampuannya dalam usaha Pakatan Rakyat menawan negeri Sabah.
ReplyDeleteDr Jeffrey Kitingan, Pengerusi STAR negeri Sabah telah mengumumkan bahawa STAR dijangka akan bertanding di kesemua 60 kerusi Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) dan 25 Ahli Parlimen kerusi di Sabah. Persoalannya mampukah STAR menonjolkan bakal calonnya?
ReplyDeleteKalau ada calonpun, boleh menang kah? Tidak takutkah dengan persaingan yang bakal dihadapi yang besar kemungkinannya akan terpaksa juga berhadapan dengan PKR dan rakan UBF STAR iaitu SAPP?
ReplyDeleteSumber dalaman STAR juga menyatakan bahawa mereka akan cuba memecah-belahkan parti SAPP jika parti tersebut terus membelakangi STAR dan UBF.
ReplyDeleteApa yang paling menarik sekali ialah apabila seorang Ketua Cabang PKR di satu Parlimen secara tidak sengaja telah membocorkan rahsia Pakatan Rakyat untuk mengutamakan calon-calon PKR bagi bertanding di kerusi Parlimen dan DUN Sabah.
ReplyDeleteMenurutnya lagi, rundingan dengan SAPP adalah untuk mengaburi mata parti pembangkang tempatan di Sabah. Dalam masa yang sama juga Pakatan Rakyat tidak mahu undi mereka berpecah dengan kewujudan SAPP dan STAR. INI KALILAH!!!

DeleteI don't think there is any.
ReplyDeleteChief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman is confident that Sandakan can become a trade hub for the Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Philippines-East Asia Growth Area (BIMP-EAGA).
ReplyDeleteHe said Sandakan and Sabah in general have the potential to be an important player in the region due to their strategic location right in the centre of the growth area.
Delete“I am confident because Sandakan’s location is very central to the neighbouring countries in BIMP-EAGA, it can become a trading centre for the region,” he said this to reporters after officiating at the launch of State-level Sayangi Komuniti programme here yesterday.
DeleteHe added that Sabah was in position to capitalise on its own social, political and economic stability to fully tap the potential within the BIMP-EAGA.
Delete“We are not just working to ensure the continuation of this ideal condition in our country but also helping our neighbours make sure that whatever problems that arise can be resolved, like our participation in resolving the conflict in Southern Philippines.
Delete“I believe this can be done if we all work together, and I believe everyone wants peace and stability,” he said when asked if Sandakan could be developed into a truly important and functioning hub for the region, following Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s remarks during his visit on Sunday that the State’s second largest city would thrive as the gateway for BIMP-EAGA under the Barisan Nasional administration.
DeleteMeanwhile on the function, Musa said he was proud to see a huge turnout for the event, which indicated a strong awareness and commitment among the public in Sabah in playing their role towards ensuring peace and security.
DeleteHe said this was in tandem with the government’s commitment to implement and support any initiatives that promote unity and sense of oneness among the people.
Delete“There are so many Rukun Tetangga committee members from across the State coming just for the event today, a proof that the response for Rukun Tetangga programmes in Sabah is very good.
Delete“This also shows that the people are sensitive about their role in promoting security and unity, and their recognition towards the Rukun Tentangga programmes under the National Unity and Integrity Department (NUID),” he said.

ReplyDeleteAN ALLEGATION has been made that large scale and rampant illegal felling of timber has been ongoing in Sabah, the proceeds of which, are purportedly to have purportedly to have been laundered outside the country, as widely reported by blogs and surprisingly thereon by various an international press agency, in print and online.
ReplyDeleteA figure of USD $90 million has been quoted as the nest egg or close RM300,000,000. lf this allegation was true it implies that not less that 1 million m3 of timber have been illegally felled.
ReplyDeleteThat represents plandering of at least 20,000 hectres (50,000 acres) of well stocked forest.
DeleteThe Forestry Department acknowledges that illegal felling does exist in Sabah but no way near the scale and extent as allegedly reported.
ReplyDeleteThe allegations are therefore 'baseless and made with bad intention's (Mal fide) to discredit and lessen the effort and sacrifices made by the state government of Sabah, to achieve good forest governance and SFM (Sustainable Forest Management) in the shortest time possible, despite the economic financial and social challenges.
DeleteThe fact's to discredit these wild and malicious allegations are as follows:
ReplyDelete(2) lf 50% ofthe annual production oftimber from Sabah was alleged to be illegal world markets especially sensitive ones like Europe, North America and Japan, would have long ago stopped buying timber from Sabah, and the enormous economic and financial implications would have been dire to the state as a whole.
ReplyDeleteThis never occurred because the alleged large scale alleged illegal logging never happen.
Delete(3) Sabah’s long term licences have been subjected to third party auditing (independent audit) since 2010, under the Ma|aysia—ECTLAS) Timber Legality Assurance Programme) the independent auditors would have detected such large scale illegal felling.
ReplyDeleteOn the contrary Sabah has always been transparent and letting her forest manager be opened to public scrutiny and third party auditor in wanting to attain world recognition an credibility.
Delete(4) RIL (Reduced Impact Logging) has been introduced in 2009 with full implementation in 2010, again verified independently by third party auditors such an allegation of rampant illegal felling (20,000 ha at least) would have been impossible to escape the attention of the auditors who are well renowned international players.
ReplyDelete(5) At least 800,000 hectares of Sabah's forests are partially of fully certified under various internationally recognized system (Forest Stewardship Council or FSC, MTCS — Malaysian Timber Certihcation Scheme, PEFC — Pan European Forest Scheme).
ReplyDeleteThis also covers the Sabah Foundation with at least 250,000 hectares of fully certined and 150,000 hectares partially certihed forest.
DeleteMany more forest areas are being earmarkedfor certification as Sabah has set 2014 as the year for all long term licensed areasto be fully certified. The process of certihcation means independent third party on auditing the ground to access credibility.
Delete(7) Sabah’s Ulu Segama-Malua eco·region bordering Danum Valley, is also home to the wor|d's GRASP (Great Apes Succeed Project) model under UNESCO, whereby not less than 3,000 orang utans are now protected in an FSC certified forest for which the state government underthe leadership of Datuk Seri Musa Haji Aman, put a total halt to logging on 31.12.2007, afterthe policy announcement was made on 15.3.2006.
ReplyDeleteThisbold decision was made despite the enormous hnancial implication — loss of potential revenue of at least RM4 billion. Why lock up valuable rainforests forever ifthe administration was bent on organizing illegal felling?
Delete(8) The area of TPAS (Totally protected areas) reserves in Sabah is now reaching 1.3 million ha. or about 20% ofSabah’s total land area, even exceeding the IUCNstandard of10%.
ReplyDeleteThe latest addition is about 180,000 ha — the 55,000 ha. wildlife corridor linking Maliau Basin, lmbak Canyon to Danum/Ulu Segama and the re-classification of Ulu Segama (130,000 ha) to total protected status.
Deletelt must be put on record that the leadership ofthe current Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Haji Aman, has seen the greatest extent of TPAS expansion in the history of Sabah, despite enormous opportunity cost of conservation.
Delete(9) Under his leadership, SFM has improved by leap and bounds, Short term licences that cause tremendous damage to the environment are being drastically phased out and Sabah's forest management credibility is at its highest-an open-book philosophy whereby, logging and forest management areas, are all open to third party and NGO scrutiny.
ReplyDeleteThe good, the bad and the ugly are laid bare with the intention of improving standards and practices on the ground.
Delete(10) The planned drop in forest revenue is also a deliberate strategy to ensure that the forests are given a chance to recover (about RM150 Million/year today as opposed to RM500 Milion — RM1 billion in the forest) and the stocks are rebuilt again in the next 20 years and this will benefit those generations to come.
ReplyDeleteIt would have been too easy to liquidate more forest for revenue solely and to abandon conservation and raising standard in the short term.
DeleteIf such a policy was pursued then there will be absolute depletion in the future. This is commonly known in economic as "The Tragedy Of The Commons".
Delete(11) The Wild and baseless allegation actually do a lot of harm to the forest of Sabah not help it. A gullible audience would have stopped buying timber (most valuable resourse financially in a forest) from Sabah, rendering the rainforest and the SFM efforts worthless and of no economic value.
ReplyDeleteOnce rainforest have no more economic value and the timber therein unsaleable, in the rainforest of continuing socio-economic, development, then they will be threatened by alternative land uses.
DeleteIf SFM and conservation no longer sell or bring benefit to society, then there will inevitably be dropped as policies, despite the progress painfully gain over the years.
Delete(12) lt is hoped that those who have projected the unfounded allegations realize the enormity of misinforming the world and in the process, they have in effect hurt our conservation effort as a whole.
ReplyDelete(13) We have reason to believe the unfounded allegations are politically motivated and not driven by any love for the environment.
ReplyDeletelt distorts with the motive of derailing Sabah’s efforts and frustrating the momentum of forest management reform The public should discard the reports as malicious and harmful to Sabah.

ReplyDeleteDatuk Musa telah membawa Sabah kearah penjagaan dan perlindungan yang baik selama menjadi Ketua Menteri Sabah. Beliau telah menyelamatkan hutan-hutan di Sabah ini terus dibalak secara haram.
ReplyDeleteDatuk Musa Aman adalah satu-satunya lelaki yang boleh melindungi hutan Sabah, hidupan liar dan kepelbagaian hayat yang akan mampu memperseimbangkan pemanasan global.
ReplyDeleteDatuk Musa Aman adalah Ketua menteri yang menghentikan pembalakan di Ulu Segama Malua dan Maliau Basin serta mewujudkan hutan penampan
ReplyDeleteTengok sendiri bagaimana seriusnya Datuk Musa mahu menyelesaikan masalah balak ini.
ReplyDeleteMungkin ada pihak yang kurang senang dengan kejayaan yang telah diberikan oleh Datuk Musa ini.
ReplyDeleteBukti sudah ada buat apa kita mahu menuduh yang bukan-bukan terhadap Datuk Musa Aman.
ReplyDeleteJeffrey kita tahu yang mana jeffrey mahukan jawatan Ketua Menteri. Tapi carilah sokongan dengan cara yang betul.
ReplyDeleteDatuk Musa telah cuba yang terbaik dengan melindungi Lembah Danum daripada pembalakan, perlombongan dan pembukaan tanah untuk tujuan pertanian.
ReplyDeleteTanpa Musa, hutan dan bahan galian seperti emas di pantai timur Sabah mungkin akan hilang. Tengok sendiri yang mana kerajaan benar-benar cuba yang terbaik untuk memastikan usaha yang baik untuk semua.
ReplyDeleteKelapa sawit mungkin menggantikan hutan hujan yang ada. Kelapa sawit dijadikan sebagai penganti untuk pendapatan Negeri ini mengantikan hasil pembalakan.
ReplyDeleteNampak bukan usaha yang dibuat oleh Datuk Musa mengantikan pendapatan daripada hasil pembalakan dengan pendapatan dari hasil kelapa sawit.
ReplyDeletePembalakan dikurangkan namun kelapa sawit pula ditingkatkan. Ini bagi memastikan hutan di Negeri Sabah ini dapat dikekalkan dan dipertahankan bagi memastikan generasi akan datang dapat merasakannya sendiri.
ReplyDeleteKerajaan Sabah mendakwa tuduhan pembalakan haram dalam negeri sebagai “liar dan tidak berasas”.
ReplyDeleteItu sudah pasti sama sekali. Pembangkang hanya tahu tuduh sana sini tapi tidak melihat sendiri fakta sebenar.
ReplyDeleteKerosakan pada hutan simpan Ulu Segama sudah berlaku ketika pemerintahan pemimpin sebelum Musa yang "menjarah" kira-kira 4,000 hektar di sana, kata Mannan merujuk kepada tempoh itu sebagai "Zaman Gelap." Datuk Musa lah orang yang menyelamatkan hutan ini.
ReplyDeleteMusa menjadi pengarah Yayasan Sabah pada 1995. Musa menghentikan pembalakan di Danum selepas mewujudkan 250,000 hektar hutan penampan.
ReplyDeleteKita seharusnya yakin dengan pentadbiran yang dibuat oleh Ketua Menteri Datuk Musa Aman. Kerana beliau telah pun menyelamatkan hutan Sabah ini terus musnah.
ReplyDeleteOrang yang perlu disalahkan dalam hal ini adalah orang sebelum Datuk Musa lagi yang menyebabkan pembalakan tidak terkawal ini berlaku.
ReplyDeleteKalau benar apa yang pihak STAR katakan ini cuba buktikan dan jelaskan dimana kawasan pembalakan yang dimaksudkan itu.
ReplyDeletesekurang-kurangnya 800,000 hektar hutan Sabah adalah sebahagian atau sepenuhnya diperakui di bawah pelbagai sistem yang diiktiraf di peringkat antarabangsa seperti Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Skim Pensijilan Balak Malaysia (MTCS) atau Pan European Forest Scheme (PEFC).
ReplyDeleteSabah sasar untuk memiliki “perakuan yang penuh di semua kawasan berlesen jangka panjang” menjelang tahun 2014, kata Datuk Mannan.
ReplyDelete60 peratus daripada muka bumi Sabah masih dilitupi hutan, sekalipun negeri ini menyaksikan perubahan lanskap yang pesat sejak beberapa dekad yang lalu.
ReplyDeleteBayangkan saja dengan keindahan hutan di Sabah ini bukan saja dapat menarik pelancong biasa tapi dapat menarik kerabat di Raja untuk dapat mengunjungi kawasan hutan di Sabah ini.
ReplyDeleteSultan Brunei sendiri pernah datang lepas itu yang terbaru pula Prince William dan Isteri datang melihat sendiri keindahan alam semula jadi di Sabah ini. Memang Sabah sangat terkenal dengan penjagaan hutan di Dunia ini.
ReplyDeleteDewan Undangan Negeri di sini, kelmarin meluluskan pindaan Enakmen Hutan (Penubuhan Hutan Simpan dan Pindaan) 1984 untuk membubarkan, menubuhkan, mengelaskan dan mengelaskan semula Hutan-Hutan Simpan di beberapa kawasan di negeri ini.
ReplyDeleteini bertujuan menyempurnakan hasrat kerajaan untuk membubarkan seluas lebih kurang 4,560.20 hektar hutan simpan kekal negeri melalui kaedah landswap dengan tanah kerajaan

ReplyDeleteHutan Simpan yang akan dibubarkan melibatkan tujuh kawasan hutan simpan iaitu dua di Semporna seluas 708 hektar di Hutan Simpan Tanjong Nagas Kelas I (Perlindungan) dan seluas 1,388 hektar kawasan Hutan Simpan Mount Pock Kelas I (Perlindungan) yang akan dikeluarkan bagi tujuan pemberian geran komunal (communal titles).

ReplyDeletekawasan lain yang akan dibubarkan ialah kawasan seluas 102 hektar daripada Hutan Simpan Kuala Bonggaya dan Kuala Labuk Kelas V (Bakau) dan kawasan seluas 21 hektar daripada kawasan Hutan Simpan Lahad Datu Kelas V (Bakau).
ReplyDeleteKawasan-kawasan itu tidak lagi sesuai untuk dikekalkan sebagai hutan simpan memandangkan ia telah terjejas teruk dan diperlukan untuk tujuan penempatan komuniti, pembangunan dan pembinaan loji kumbahan daerah Lahad Datu
ReplyDeleteselaras dengan kaedah landswap bagi menggantikan kawasan-kawasan Hutan Simpan Kelas I (Perlindungan) yang telah dibubarkan itu empat kawasan tanah kerajaan telah dikenalpasti untuk ditubuhkan sebagai Hutan Simpan.
ReplyDeleteKawasan gantian tersebut adalah kawasan seluas 1,902 hektar dalam kawasan Hutan Silimpopon dan seluas 740 hektar kawasan Hutan Dalit yang akan diwartakan sebagai Hutan Simpan Kelas I (Perlindungan) yang masing-masing akan dinamakan Hutan Simpan Silimpopon Kelas I (Perlindungan) dan Hutan Simpan Dalit Kelas I (Perlindungan) (Tambahan)
ReplyDelete‘Jeffrey desperate because STAR falling apart’
ReplyDeleteAngkatan Perubahan Sabah chief Wilfred Bumburing has reminded STAR's Jeffrey Kitingan of his own "cari makan politics" past.
‘Jeffrey desperate because STAR falling apart’
ReplyDeleteKOTA KINABALU: Tuaran MP Wilfred Bumburing believes that State Reform Party (STAR) chief Jeffrey Kitingan’s incessant attacks on him is because of Angkatan Perubahan Sabah’s (APS) increasing presence in KadazanDusunMurut areas.
Bumburing said it was now obvious that Jeffrey, who’s been claiming absolute strength in KDM areas, was “desperate” because “STAR is falling apart since the formation of APS”.
‘Jeffrey desperate because STAR falling apart’
ReplyDeleteHe said the dissolution of the STAR Papar division last month with the exit of well-known activist Patrick Sindu and more than 1,000 members was an indication of the beginning. All of them joined PKR.
“My political history is well recorded and I need not have to elaborate.
“In contrast, the people in general especially Sabahans are well versed with the political record of Jeffrey Kitingan,” Bumburing said.
He also hit out at Jeffrey for accusing him of practicing “cari makan politics”.
“If l were to practise politics of “cari makan” then the best platform would be to remain in BN.
‘Jeffrey desperate because STAR falling apart’
ReplyDelete“Wouldn’t you find it very ironic for someone who left the comfort of a ruling party like BN to join the opposition camp and thereafter be labelled as practising ‘politics cari makan,”? he asked alluding to Jeffrey’s comments last weekend.
Bumburing reminded Jeffrey that he too had practiced the ‘cari makan’ politics and the latter’s own history of moving from party to party reflected this and his one deep desire to become the Chief Minister of Sabah.
‘Jeffrey desperate because STAR falling apart’
ReplyDelete“But with Jeffrey just ‘cari makan’ is not enough for him. He must ‘makan besar’.
“Jeffrey Kitingan mentioned about certain people who are prepared to sell their soul to secure position.
“Let me remind Jeffrey, lest he has forgotten about his own record.
“Did he not (once) join the federal government as a deputy minister? Can he also explain to the people about his application twice to become an Umno member? asked Bumburing.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteAPA penyebab Pembangkang berkeyakinan bahawa calon-calon BN daripada komponen BN di Sabah akan mereka tawan? Apa kah parti seperti PBS, UPKO, LDP,PBRS, MCA, Gerakan tiada penyokong lagi? Apa kah kerana ada STAR, maka semua KDM berpihak padanya? Apa kah kewujudan STAR, maka semua komponen BN yang berlatarbelakangkan KDM kehilangan sokongan? Apa kah kerana kaum cina berpihak kepada DAP? Atas sebab itu, komponen parti yang berlatarbelakangkan kaum cina, kehilangan sokongan?
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeletePersepsi di atas adalah tantangan kepada komponen parti BN. Pembangkang tidak mengatisipasi boleh menawan kawasan yang ditandingi Umno, kerana mereka menganggap parti PAS dan PKR tiada kemampuan untuk merebut sokongan kaum bumiputera islam terhadap Umno.
Kaum bumiputera Islam Sabah mempunyai rekod tersendiri, mereka buktikan bahawa sejak tahun 1976-Parti USNO (kini UMNO) senantiasa mendapat kerusi, walaupun menjadi parti Pembangkang.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteKesetian pengundi USNO terhadap parti yang ditubuhkan oleh Bapa Kemerdekaan Sabah-Tun Datu Mustapha Datu Harun, kini dicurahkan kepada Umno. Atas sebab itu, sejak tahun 1994, semua kawasan yang ditandingi Umno terus menang.
Kerajaan Sabah yang ditunjangi Umno dengan 32 kerusi DUN daripada 60 kerusi secara keseluruhan, tidak memungkinkan parti lawan untuk menubuhkan kerajaan negeri. Atas sebab itu, Pembangkang tidak mempunyai keyakinan untuk menumbangkan kerajaan negeri.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteParti Pembangkang, hanya berminat terhadap kerusi Parlimen, kononnya sebagai Pelengkap kepada kerusi Pembangkang di Semenanjung, untuk menubuhkan kerajaan Pusat.
Sebagai rekod- sejak PRU 2004 dan 2008, BN Sabah menyumbang 24 kerusi Parlimen kepada BN Pusat, tidak termasuk satu kerusi Parlimen WP Labuan.
Pada PRU-13, sasaran utama Pembangkang adalah kawasan Parlimen yang tidak ditandingi Umno seperti-Kota Kinabalu, Sepanggar, Putatan, Penampang, Tuaran, Pensiangan, Keningau, Ranau, Kota Marudu,Sandakan, dan Tawau. Pembangkang berkeyakinan akan mampu menang 11 kerusi Parlimen daripada 25 kerusi yang tersedia di Sabah.Sementara kawasan Beaufort akan melihat bagaimana kekuatan Umno berbanding kekuatan Datuk Lajim Haji Ukin sebagai individu. Di atas kertas, Parlimen Beaufort masih kubu Umno.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteAnggapan Pembangkang, bahawa semua kawasan yang tidak ditandingi Umno akan mereka tawan. Keadaan ini merupakan tantangan kepada para pemimpin komponen parti BN Sabah, terutama Tan Sri Pairin Kitingan, Tan Sri Bernerd Dompok, Tan Sri Joseph Kurup, Datuk VK Liew dan Pemimpin MCA serta Pemimpin Gerakan negeri.
Pembangkang telah meremehkan sudah pengaruh para pemimpin komponen BN bukan Umno, dengan mengatakan, bahawa mereka kini hanya sebagai pemimpin parti, akan tetapi tidak mempunyai penyokong lagi.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteMengapa Pembangkang meremehkan pemimpin BN bukan Umno? Apa kah keberadaan mereka dalam BN, suku kaum mereka tidak mendapat pembelaan? Menurut kenyataan Ketua Menteri Sabah- bahawa kadar kemiskinan di kawasan pedalaman, di mana suku kaum KDM merupakan penduduk majoriti-kadar kemiskinannya dengan cepat berkurangan-akibat pembangunan yang disediakan oleh kerajaan.
Malah projek-projek kerajaan yang bersifat “mega” daripada segi pertanian diwujudkan di kawasan majoriti kaum KDM.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteBagi kawasan majoriti kaum cina pula, pembangunan bukan matalamat mereka, kerana apa yang dicari di kawasan di mana penduduknya kaum cina?-serba serbi telah tersedia, karena kawasan-kawasan itu merupakan Pusat-Pusat perniagaan.
Atas sebab itu, bagaimana majunya kawasan Bukit Bintang dan kawasan sekitarnya-tidak akan memilih BN kerana bagi mereka-tiada keperluan memilih BN, kerana semua infrastrukutur telahpun tersedia. Kaum cina tahu, bahawa kerajaan BN adalah agen pembangunan, mereka tidak perlu lagi kepada agen pembangunan.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteBagi rakyat yang tidak memerlukan agen pembangunan, maka menjadi penyebab kawasan-kawasan yang didiami kaum cina pada PRU-13, telah menolak calon-calon BN, terutama di Pulau Pinang, Selangor dan Perak. Manakala di Kedah dan Kelantan, rakyat memilih calon-calon bukan BN kerana sentimen agama selain factor sabotaj daripada penyokong BN sendiri terhadap calon-calon BN.
Akan kah persepsi Pembangkang menjadi kenyataan pada PRU-13? Kerana walaupun pembangkang mensasarkan kawasan-kawasan majoriti kaum KDM, akan tetapi di kawasan-kawasan itu terdapat juga ahli-ahli dan penyokong Umno.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteKesetiaan Ahli-ahli dan penyokong Umno, tidak akan dapat disangkal, mereka akan bersatu hati memangkah calon-calon BN. Jika komponen parti BN bukan Umno masih ada lagi sisa-sisa penyokong mereka, nampaknya hasrat pembangkang tidak akan kesampaian. Calon-calon BN boleh menang, walaupun dengan majoriti yang kecil, namun dalam sistem demokrasi-kelebihan satu undipun adalah pemenang.
Bagi kawasan kaum Cina-hanya Kota kinabalu-sukar dimenangi BN, manakala Sandakan dan Tawau masih dalam keadaan 50-50; sedikit swing.. maka BN akan mempertahankan Sandakan dan mampu menang di Parlimen Tawau.
PRU-13-Sabah: Pembangkang yakin Tawan Kawasan BN yang calonnya bukan dari Parti Umno
ReplyDeleteNampaknya, pada keadaan sekarang walaupun parti Pembangkang telah menjamur di Sabah, nampaknya mereka tiada keupayaan- BN masih mampu mengulangi kejayaan tahun 2008- dengan 24 kerusi Parlimen dan membentuk kerajaan Negeri dengan kuasa ¾ bukan 2/3.
He give us Sabahan so much and yet so many people still can't let him go
ReplyDeleteheard that totally protected area (TPAS) reserves in Sabah had increased, so what is the problem here?
