Overall Wage and Employment Opportunities Among Sarawakian

(150) YB Dr Haji Hazland Bin Abang Hipni asked the Minister for Industrial and Entrepreneur Development: What are the initiatives by the State Government to improve the overall wage and employment opportunities among Sarawakians example by developing further Small and Medium Entrepreneur (SME) industrialisation in tax exemption, business-

friendly regulations, subsidized industrial land, discounted water and electrical power, etc?

Menteri Muda Pembangunan Perusahaan Kecil dan Sederhana dan Usahawan (YB Datuk Haji Mohd. Naroden Haji Majais): Terima kasih, Tuan Speaker and Yang Berhormat

bagi Demak Laut. For information of Ahli Yang Berhormat for Demak Laut, our Government

Page 13: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

have always been supportive towards the growth of SMEs through business-friendly policies and providing numerous assistances in terms of financial and non-financial facilities. For example, the financial assistance rendered SME includes soft loan and grants plus training and development programmes. IncentiveS for electricity and water charges, connecting charges for example for industries are given waiver of capacity charges for the first 60 KVA, which amounting to RM30,000.00.

Our power tariffs is among the lowest in the region and was reduced effective from 1st June 2015. Water supplies is a very competitive tariff. Incentive on industrial land for SMEs are subsidised land premium with rebate of 30% depend on locations. Flexible term of payment by way of instalment for example, for three (3) years. The State Government is developing industrial land not only at major urban centres but also in rural town such as Kapit, Marudi, Sri Aman, Betong and Lawas. To complement industrial parks, the State Government is also planning to build more Anjung Usahawan or business premises at rural town provide proper premise facilities for SMEs to conduct their business. Tax exemption for SME, the Federal Government is also providing tax exemptions for the list of promoted activities and products for small scale enterprises which are eligible for consideration of Pioneer Status, Investment Tax Allowance and Reinvestment Allowance under the

Promotion of Investment Act 1986.

Initiative of wages and employment, one of the initiative to increase wages is implementation of minimum wages. Currently, the minimum wages for Sarawak is RM920.00 per month against peninsular Malaysia RM1000.00 per month. And of course if they are skillful, they will able to command better wages. The implementation of minimum wage has generally increase overtime wages as the rate are based on the basic salary received. The State Government always give priority to our local workforce especially in Sama Jaya and Samalaju Industrial Parks. Currently 99% of our workforce in Sama Jaya are locals while 70% of the workforce in Samalaju, Bintulu are also local. The Federal Government also encourage employers through Human Resource Development Fund (HRDF) to train their workforce under various programmes and all this initiative hopefully will help provide improve employment opportunities, improve profitability wages and improve purchasing power build

up interest to participate in SMEs and hence improve standard of living of the people.

Thank you.

YB Dr Haji Hazland Bin Abang Hipni: (Supplementary Question) Terima kasih Yang

Berhormat Menteri Muda. I have two (2) supplementary questions. The first question is many have said that GST is the main factor resulting in the high cost of goods but even though GST has been abolished by the PH Government, the cost of goods is still high so will the price of goods be lowered with the introduction of SST? My second question is what are the Government initiative to control the price of goods?

Thank you.

Menteri Muda Pembangunan Perusahaan Kecil dan Sederhana dan Usahawan (YB Datuk Haji Mohd. Naroden Haji Majais): Terima kasih, Ahli Yang Berhormat bagi Demak

Laut. We really hope that by abolishing GST and replacing it with SST will help improve the price of goods in Malaysia especially after PRU 14. But whatever it is any additional cost will add to the increase of prices of goods include taxes whether it is GST or SST. One thing for sure both will increase the prices of goods unless we go away with it. But there are other variable cost within the supply chain from raw material cost, processing cost, logistic cost, rental and utilities, unnecessary non-skilled main power, wastages and of course there are

variables like demand and supply which are beyond our control.

For example, when demand decrease supply decrease that we push the price to go up. Likewise if demand increase, supply increase, that will help to push the prices down. So, apakah perancangan Kerajaan untuk menangani atau mengurangkan harga produk di masa

akan datang. One think, that I can think of, is to encourage our entrepreneurs to use as

much local material as possible, produce locally, reduce wastages, reduce unnecessary course within the supply chain. But, Tuan Speaker, now we have Deputy Minister of KPDNKK under Pakatan Harapan, Deputy Minister from DAP of Sarawak and we hope that he and his Ministry can come out with strategies and policies, how, dia tidak ada sini ye? Because he need to answer how the prices of good in Malaysia including Sarawak can be reduced in the future. We hope that to happen. And that’s why, he try to champion all this while, when he was the member of this House. Thank you. Tuan Speaker: YB Encik Alexander Anak Vincent for Ngemah.

Assistant Minister. I have a supplementary question.

(153) YB Encik Miro anak Simuh bertanya kepada Menteri Kebajikan, Kesejahteraan

Komuniti, Wanita, Keluarga dan Pembangunan Kanak-kanak: Adakah kerajaan merancang untuk mengambil alih pentadbiran kesemua tabika-tabika kemas di Sarawak dan diserapkan di bawah Kementerian ini bagi mengelak wujudnya konflik pentadbiran tabika-tabika kemas dan juga supaya dapat kita terapkan cara dan corak pendidikan kita sendiri? Menteri Kebajikan, Kesejahteraan Komuniti, Wanita, Keluarga dan Pembangunan Kanak-kanak (YB Dato Sri Hajah Fatimah Abdullah): Tuan Speaker, untuk makluman Ahli Yang Berhormat bagi Serembu pentadbiran Tabika Kemas di Sarawak adalah di bawah Kementerian Pembangunan Luar Bandar Kerajaan Persekutuan yang kini ditadbir oleh Pakatan Harapan. Setakat ini status Tabika Kemas ialah status quo. Sehubungan itu tidak

timbul Kerajaan Negeri untuk mengambil alih pentadbiran Tabika Kemas. YB Encik Miro anak Simuh: (Soalan Tambahan) Terima kasih, Yang Berhormat Menteri.

Saya ada dua (2) soalan tambahan yang akan dikemukakan iaitu:

(a) Nyatakan jumlah Tabika Kemas diseluruh Negeri Sarawak dan juga jumlah pelajar secara keseluruhannya?

Terima kasih.

Menteri Kebajikan, Kesejahteraan Komuniti, Wanita, Keluarga dan Pembangunan Kanak-kanak (YB Dato Sri Hajah Fatimah Abdullah): Untuk makluman Yang Berhormat bagi Serembu, sehingga Jun 2018 jumlah kelas Tabika Kemas di seluruh Sarawak adalah 1,540 dengan bilangan kanak-kanak berjumlah 21,201.

Bagi jawapan untuk soalan tambahan kedua daripada Ahli Yang Berhormat Serembu, anggaran peruntukan mengurus dan mentadbir Tabika Kemas, di Tabika sahaja tidak termasuk di Taska. Tabika Kemas 2017 merangkumi emolumen, baik pulih, peralatan, bantuan makanan tambahan, geran per kapita. Untuk tahun 2017 bagi emolumen, iaitu untuk bayaran gaji sebanyak RM29,501,114.00 atau ringkasnya RM29.5 juta.

Untuk baik pulih bangunan, baik pulih, bukan bina baru, baik pulih adalah RM480,000.00 sahaja. Saya ulang ye, RM480,000.00 sahaja. Untuk peralatan, ini untuk teaching and learning materials sebanyak RM33,277.60. Bantuan makanan tambahan, ini

adalah untuk kanak-kanak yang datangnya daripada keluarga berpendapatan rendah. Jadi waktu rehat mereka diberi makanan tambahan. Untuk makanan tambahan sebanyak RM9.7 juta atau perinciannya RM9,715,388.59. Kemudian untuk geran per kapita sebanyak RM1.26 juta dan ini membawa jumlah RM39.7 juta.

Bagi tahun 2018, untuk emolumen sebanyak RM30.9 juta, baik pulih (ada

pertambahan sedikit) RM2.5 juta. Untuk peralatan RM30,000.00, bantuan makanan tambahan RM12.9 juta dan geran per kapita (ini geran per kapita berdasar kepada bilangan murid) RM1.46 juta. Jadi, jumlah keseluruhannya ialah RM48.05 juta bagi tahun 2018.

Saya ingin menarik perhatian Ahli-ahli Yang Berhormat dalam Dewan ini. Di Sarawak,

terbanyak. Tuan Speaker, terdapat 109 buah tabika daif (ini tabika daif), tetapi kalau kita lihat peruntukkan yang diberikan pada tahun 2017, tidak ada peruntukan untuk membina baru. Yang ada hanyalah untuk baik pulih. Itu pun hanya RM480.000.00, (tak sampai RM1 juta) dan untuk tahun 2018 diperuntukkan RM2.5 juta untuk baik pulih. Disebabkan oleh peruntukkan yang sangat sedikit ini, maka Kerajaan Negeri telah membuat keputusan (Yang Amat Berhormat telah membuat keputusan) bahawa Kerajaan Negeri memperuntukkan RM5.4 juta bagi membina baru 11 buah tabika dan taska daif KEMAS untuk tahun 2018. Adalah menjadi harapan Kerajaan Negeri dalam era Malaysia baru di bawah Pakatan Harapan ini, Pakatan Harapan akan menambah peruntukkan untuk negeri Sarawak bagi membaik pulih dan membina baru tabika dan taska KEMAS yang daif. Tuan Speaker: Yang Berhormat Encik Martin Ben for Kedup.

Menteri Muda Bekalan Air (YB Datuk Liwan Lagang): Terima kasih, Yang Berhormat bagi

Kedup. Oleh kerana ini merupakan projek di bawah KKAW yang terdahulu, maka penyambungan adalah sampai ke meter dan penyambungan dari meter ke dapur adalah tertakluk kepada pengguna itu masing-masing.

Setakat ini keperluan logistik yang diperlukan untuk penganjuran pesta ataupun aktiviti berskala besar adalah secara sewaan. Bagi menjawab soalan tambahan kedua pula, setakat ini Kementerian hanya membuat ataupun melaku kerja-kerja membaik pulih dan menaik taraf untuk komplek-komplek sukan tersebut seperti yang telah saya katakan tadi dan kerja-kerja komplek sukan tersebut tidak dapat dijalankan memandangkan kawasan yang agak terhad.

Menaik Taraf Jalan Bajau/ Kampung Kupang

(162) YB Datuk Haji Abdul Wahab Aziz bertanya kepada Menteri Pembangunan

Infrastruktur dan Pengangkutan: (a) Bilakah projek membesar serta menaik taraf Jalan Bajau/Kampung Kupang

sejauh 22 kilometer akan bermula?

Page 24: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

(b) Bilakah pembinaan jambatan menyeberangi Sungai Krian Komuniti di Saratok akan bermula?

Menteri Muda Jalan Pesisir (YB Datuk Haji Julaihi Bin Haji Narawi): Terima kasih Tuan

Speaker. Terima kasih Yang Berhormat Kalaka. Untuk makluman Ahli Yang Berhormat Kalaka, saya akan menjawab kedua-dua soalan yang terbahagi kepada (a) dan (b) ini secara serentak.

Untuk makluman Ahli Yang Berhormat bagi Kalaka, kerja fizikal kedua-dua projek naiktaraf Jalan Bajau/Kampung Kupang dan projek pembinaan jambatan menyeberangi Sungai Krian di Pekan Saratok merupakan projek yang dibiayai oleh Kerajaan Pusat (Federal Funded) dan ia dijangka bermula pada pertengahan tahun 2019 tetapi tertakluk kepada surat rasmi terbaru yang dihantar oleh Kementerian Kewangan Malaysia (yang menyatakan bahawa projek ini, surat rasmi daripada Kementerian Kewangan Malaysia) bertarikh 29 Jun 2018.

Projek ini diklasifikasikan sebagai kategori B (sederhana kritikal) dan ianya perlu

dirujuk semula kepada Unit Perancangan Ekonomi (EPU) untuk pertimbangan semula. YB Datuk Haji Abdul Wahab Aziz: Tuan Speaker, walaupun projek-projek ini di bawah Federal Funding namun saya usulkan dua (2) soalan tambahan:-

(a) Apakah skop kerja pembinaan jalan dari Kampung Kupang ke Simpang Bajau? (b) Apakah skop kerja jambatan Sungai Krian ke Pekan Saratok?

Menteri Muda Bekalan Air (YB Datuk Liwan Lagang): Terima kasih, Yang Berhormat

Kalaka. Untuk menjawab soalan pertama, skop menaik taraf jalan dari Kampung Kupang ke simpang Jalan Bajau terbahagi kepada dua (2) bahagian;-

i. Melibatkan menaik taraf jalan ladang permukaan berbatu kepada jalan berturap JKR R3 dengan panjang lebih kurang 20 kilometer dan juga melibatkan 8.3 kilometer spur route atau pun jalan akses yang melibatkan jalan akses menuju Rh. Anau sepanjang 4 km, jalan akses menuju SK Entubu sepanjang 0.3 kilometer, Jalan Rh. Lakun sepanjang 3 kilometer, Jalan Rabiah Sg. Ara sepanjang 0.5 kilometer dan Jalan Selambung sepanjang 0.5 kilometer; dan

ii. Melibatkan pembinaan membina baru, menambah baik dan menaik taraf beberapa jambatan kecil, pembentung, longkang tepi jalan dan bahu jalan serta pemasangan perabot jalan dan papan tanda jalan.

Itu jawapan untuk skop kerja bagi soalan tambahan yang pertama yang melibatkan siling sebanyak RM90 juta.

Untuk menjawab soalan tambahan yang kedua, iaitu pembinaan jambatan menuju ke pekan Saratok. Jambatan ini sepanjang 300 meter termasuk membina jalan baharu sepanjang 1.5 kilometer yang bakal menghubungkan pekan Saratok dan Jalan Bajau dan Jalan Kupang yang saya maksudkan sebentar tadi. Projek ini juga mempunyai siling sebanyak RM90 juta dan ini bermakna kedua-dua projek ini bernilai RM180 juta. Cuma yang kesalnya ialah apabila ada keadaan yang tidak pasti sebegini apabila menerima surat rasmi daripada Kementerian Kewangan Malaysia, lebih-lebih lagi selepas Kerajaan Pusat bertukar tangan kepada Kerajaan Pakatan Harapan selepas PRU14 baru-baru ini.

Ini adalah antara kesan langsung kepada rakyat Sarawak dan negeri Sarawak di mana projek yang sepatutnya boleh dilaksanakan di bawah Kerajaan Pusat berada dalam

Page 25: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

15

keadaan tidak pasti dan yang rugi. Kalaulah projek ini benar-benar tidak dilaksanakan, yang

rugi ialah negeri Sarawak, rakyat Sarawak termasuk rakyat luar bandar Sarawak.

Oleh itu, maka kita berharap wakil rakyat Pakatan Harapan yang telah memenangi pilihan raya Parlimen di negeri Sarawak lebih-lebih lagi Ahli Parlimen kawasan ini ialah dari Pakatan Harapan kawasan Saratok. Jadi kita berharap juga, bersama-sama dengan Menteri KKR nya boleh menyeru Kerajaan Pusat supaya put aside our political differences. Give priority to the rural people of Sarawak kerana kalau tidak rakyat akan menilai. We are

watching you whether you all are really sincere to assist the rural people of Sarawak.

Thank you very much.

Tuan Speaker: Yang Berhormat Encik Wilson Nyabong, Pelagus. YB Encik Wilson Nyabong: Terima kasih, Tuan Speaker.

Pengeluaran Geran Tanah Di Bahagian Kapit

(163) YB Encik Wilson Nyabong Anak Ijang bertanya kepada Menteri Pembangunan Bandar dan Sumber Asli: Berapakah jumlah geran tanah yang sudah dikeluarkan bagi lot-lot tanah yang sudah lama siap diukur sejak tahun lapan puluhan di bahagian Kapit dan mengapakah masa yang diambil begitu lama untuk pihak Kerajaan mengeluarkan geran tanah tersebut? (207) YB Encik Allan Siden Gramong to ask the Minister for Urban Development and

Natural Resources: How many acres of NCR Land have already been surveyed and how many acres of NCR Land have not been surveyed in DUN Machan? (212) YB Encik Alexande Anak Vincent to ask the Minister for Urban Development and Natural Resources: Issuance of land titles for Native Customary Right (NCR) land is affecting the rural people of Sarawak.

a) What is the status of perimeter survey work of NCR land throughout Sarawak? b) What is the progress on issuance of NCR land titles to rightful owners?

Menteri Pembangunan Bandar dan Sumber Asli (YB Datu Haji Len Talif Bin Salleh): Terima kasih, Tuan Speaker. Terima kasih, Yang Berhormat Pelagus. I have to be quite charitable this morning because I have to combine two (2) additional question from Ahli Yang Berhormat bagi Machan (207) dan Ahli Yang Berhormat bagi Ngemah (212). In the interest of time, I hope there would not be any additional question but kalau ada soalan-soalan

tambahan I would be very glad to provide the written answer to those question later on.

Jadi untuk menjawab bagi Ahli Yang Berhormat Pelagus. Sejak tahun 1980 hingga 30

Jun 2018, sebanyak 10,201 surat hak milik tanah telah dikeluarkan di Bahagian Kapit. Daripada jumlah tersebut, sebanyak 4,567 surat hak milik melibatkan pemberimilikan tanah Kerajaan melalui Seksyen 13 Kanun Tanah Negeri dan 5,634 surat hak milik melibatkan pengeluaran hak milik tanah Hak Adat Bumiputera melalui Seksyen 18 Kanun Tanah Negeri.

Pengeluaran surat hak milik tanah memerlukan masa kerana ianya memerlukan

beberapa peringkat iaitu pengukuran di lapangan, pengambilan maklumat dan tuntutan pemilik, pengesahan sempadan serta pengesahan maklumat agar pengeluaran surat hak milik ini nanti mempunyai maklumat-maklmat yang tepat bagi memastikan integriti data berkenaan.

Page 26: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

16

Selain daripada itu, bagi program pengukuran lot individu peringkat kedua Program Pengukuran Tanah NCR Inisiatif Baharu, kejayaan pengukuran tanah di lapangan amat bergantung kepada kesediaan dan kerjasama penuntut-penuntut tanah seperti dalam mengenal pasti sempadan tanah yang dituntut, hadir semasa pengukuran dijalankan dan

memastikan tuntutan adalah bebas dari sebarang pertikaian.

Dan untuk menjawab soalan Ahli Yang Berhormat Machan, melalui Program Pengukuran Perimeter Tanah NCR Inisiatif Baru, seluas 18,125 ekar ataupun 7,335 hektar tanah NCR di DUN Machan telah diukurkan setakat ini. Seluas 21,525 ekar atau 8,711

hektar lagi akan di ukur pada masa terdekat.

Manakala jumlah 35,682 ekar ataupun 11,440 hektar belum dapat di ukur oleh Jabatan Tanah dan Survei memandangkan ianya terlibat dengan bantahan penduduk di lapangan.

Seterusnya untuk menjawab soalan Yang Berhormat Ngemah, melalui peringkat pertama Program Pengukuran Tanah NCR Inisiatif Baharu, seluas 1,318,755 hektar tanah NCR di seluruh Sarawak telah diluluskan untuk diukur perimeter. Daripada jumlah tersebut, 861,136 hektar telah siap diukur perimeter dan 8,546 hektar sedang dalam proses pengukuran dan 225,963 hektar akan diukur dalam masa terdekat. Seluas 211,124 hektar pula pengukurannya belum dapat diteruskan kerana terlibat dengan pelbagai masalah di lapangan.

Seluas 10,512 hektar tanah NCR melibatkan sebanyak 9,461 lot telah diukur lot individu dan dikeluarkan dengan surat hak milik tanah di bawah Seksyen 18 Kanun Tanah Negeri melalui peringkat kedua program ini. Pengukuran lot individu merupakan usaha berterusan Kerajaan bagi memastikan pemilik tanah NCR yang sahih sahaja dikeluarkan dengan surat hak milik tanah.

Secara keseluruhannya Tuan Speaker, mengikut kajian Jabatan Tanah dan Survei APIS iaitu Ariel Photograph Information System, sekiranya semua kawasan ini di ukur dalam masa yang akan datang, there will be a total of 2,594,501 hectares will be under NCR Land and other NTD has been estimated that 1,154,827 hectares going to be under NTD. Ini bermakna the total under NTD yang akan diberi hak milik pada bumiputera ialah 3,749,328

hektar iaitu about 30% of our landmass.

Terima kasih.

Tuan Speaker: Ahli-ahli Yang Berhomat, I shall now call upon The Honourable Deputy Chief

Minister, Minister for Mordenisation of Agriculture, Native Land & Regional Development to wind up on the Land Code (Amendment) Bill, 2018. Timbalan Ketua Menteri, Menteri Pemodenan Pertanian, Tanah Adat dan Pembangunan Wilayah (YB Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas): Terima kasih, Tuan

Speaker. Terlebih dahulu, saya ingin merakamkan ucapan terima kasih kepada semua 35 Ahli-ahli Yang Berhormat yang telah mengambil bahagian dalam perbahasan pindaan ke atas Land Code (Amendment) Bill, 2018 yang saya telah bentangkan kelmarin.

Tuan Speaker, I must record my appreciation to the Honourable Members of

Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) for their positive contribution in the debate on the amendment Bill. They have participated in the debate professionally and objectively reflecting their understanding on the proposed amendment Bill. They all aimed to contributing to shaping the Bill so that we introduce a law to help solve the problem in relation to the Native Territorial Domain.

Tuan Speaker, from what was reported in the media the day before, the Government

was expecting a fiery and intense debate but there was none since we have covered everything in the amendment Bill.

Tuan Speaker, the main objectives the Land Code (Amendment) Bill, 2018 are:

i. To give Native Territorial Domain the force of law; ii. To issue Native Communal Title in perpetuity which will confer on such title a

proprietary right to the Native Territorial Domain. One such title is issued, it will be treated as any title granted under the Land Code and the proprietary interest in that title would be indefeasible by virtue Section 132 of the Land Code;

iii. To resolve the problem arising from Federal Court decision in TR Nyutan case relating to provisional lease; and

iv. To repeal provision in the Land Code Amendment Ordinance 2000 which had not come into force resulting in for example the reinstatement of Section 5(2)(f).

Tuan Speaker, I would also like to state that the Bill reaffirmed the principle of

inclusiveness. In fact, the Bill has been drafted in such a way, in such a manner so as to incorporate this principle. This is so because in Sarawak, we have more than 30 native group. Each with their own customs and culture. For that reason, the term “Native Territorial Domain” is used rather than its equivalent “Pemakai Menua” “Pulau Galau” for iban, “Cari Makan” for Malay, “Toan” for Bidayuh and so on.

Tuan Speaker, I would now like to respond to the point raised by Ahli-ahli Yang

Berhormat during the debate on the Land Code (Amendment) Bill, 2018. Tuan Speaker, the Honourable Members for Krian and Bintulu alleged that the Bill fell

short of expectation because it only seeks to confer “Usufractuary Right” which is only right to use and not to own the land. It is apparent that both Members do not understand the Bill and are confuse. Let me clarify for their benefit once again.

Tuan Speaker, the term “usufractuary” is mainly descriptive of the customs and

practice which would be legally recognised by the amended provision to establish ownership right to a Native Territorial Domain. It is mainly a process of claiming the area as their territorial domain. After the “Usufracturary Right” is established, the territorial domain will then be given a Native Communal Title which confer a proprietary right on the territorial domain. This is giving ownership of the Native Territorial Domain to the community. In another word, they owned the territorial domain not just the right to use. I hope this will clear

the doubt on this issue, and I hope our friend the other side can tell their friend who are going to have a protest in Bintulu to correct what they publicised here. Here they say, “tauk ngena, tauka nda tauk empu” which is wrong, misrepresentation of facts “wayang kulit”, “main politik”. YB dari Batu Lintang can watch that they are wrong because what we are giving is “tauk ngena tauk ngempu”. Nyak ko iya Betong, Okay YB Krian, Faham ah? “Tauk ngena tauk ngempu” …(Interruption) Apa lagik?

To answer the question raised on why application has to be submitted to the

Superintendant of Land and Survey, I wish to clarify that the Director of Land and Survey assisted by Officers in the Department including Superintendant is the Administrator of Land in Sarawak has provided for at Section 3 of the Land Code. There is a proposal for a Committee of Commission to be formed to assist Department of Land and Survey and verifying the claim an area for Native Territorial Domain. We will study this proposal.

Tuan Speaker, the Honourable Member for Tanjung Batu alleged that this Amendment

erode the NCR land of the native. This is not true. Let me emphasize that Native Territorial Domain under Section 6A is over and above. The right of the native or native community to claim Native Customary Right (NCR) under Section 5. Therefore, it is not true that the native will lose land ownership as was reported by the newspaper this morning Tanjung Datu alleged the land owner NCR owner lose, Tanjung Datu, sorry, apology, Tanjung Batu, maaf, apologize, terlalu banyak batu.

Therefore, it is not true that the native lose land ownership by this Amendment as

alleged by Honorable Member for Tanjung Batu. His decision reflect his lack of understanding of this Amendment. I do not mind to give him some briefing on this. Tuan Speaker, let me say again that the right of native community to claim Native Territorial Domain under Section 6A is over and above, we need to repeat so that it can be understood, the right of native community to claim NCR under Section 5 of the Land Code.

The Honorable Member for Batu Lintang and Krian in their debate stated that it would

be better to issue a title for native territorial domain under Section 18 rather than under proposed new Section 6A. With due respect the new Section 6A and Section 18 cater for two different situations. Section 18 provides for the issuance of a title to and every individual who has occupied and used any unalienated land in accordance with the right acquired by customary tenure amounting to individual ownership of the land for residential and agriculture purposes whereas, under the proposed new Section 6A a Native Communal Title is to be issued to a native community in respect of native territorial domain, a virgin jungle in which the native community have exercised and is exercising usufructuary right.

Tuan Speaker, 22 Honorable Members have expressed among them are the

Honorable Member for Engkilili, Murum, Kedup, Batu Danau, Tasik Biru, Layar, Machang, Meluan, Sama Laju, Katibas, Bukit Bengunan, Ngemah, Krian, Tupong, Bukit Goram, Daro, Krian, Pelagus, Telang Usang, Lingga, Kalaka, Piasau all raised the issue and expresses their concern that the limit of 500 hectares the native community may claim as Native Territorial Domain under Section 6 may not be fair and just as some community requirement and need may exceed this threshold. They have suggested propose to the limit be increased to 1000 hectares.

Tuan Speaker, the Government has taken note to this suggestion and proposal as

you all aware, as all Honorable Members aware, a Motion to amend the Bill to increase the area and the manner of propose in a Motion has been circulated to the Honorable Members of this House.

Tuan Speaker, this is above the truth that the Government is listening and where

proposal is reasonable we will adjust to accommodate the proposal as evidence above.

Tuan Speaker, the Honorable Member for Layar, Meluan, Ngemah, Piasau and Bukit Semuja have also proposed that the issuance of the native communal title be granted not just in perpetuity but free of premium rent and other charges. Tuan Speaker that had always been the intention of the Government. However, to make the Government intention clearer this will be reflected through an Amendment to the Bill of which a Motion to do so has been circulated to all Honorable Members.

Tuan Speaker, I would like to reassure all native community in Sarawak that the State

is committed to ensure that propriety interest over Native Territorial Domain are protected and Native Communal Title are rightfully issued to the respective native community in accordance with Land Code. Tuan Speaker, I am confidence that this Amendment will definitely resolved the controversy surrounding the subject of Native Territorial Domain.

Through this Bill the Government is given the custom creating the Native Territorial

Domain the force of law, secondly, the Government is to ensure the interest of this Native Territorial Domain to be one that carries with it the perpetuity right to further protect this propriety right the Bill provide for Native Communal Title to be recognised as a document of title issued under the Land Code.

This title is indefeasible no provisional lease can deprive the native community of their

right. The Government has also ensure that the native continue to enjoy its right by providing that the tenure of the Native Territorial Domain be in perpetuity further to ensure that the Native Territorial Domain continue to remain between the control an ownership of native community. No dealing the land which could result and the Native Community losing their precious land to other party are allowed.

Tuan Speaker, I appeal to Native of Sarawak to give this new law a chance. I once

again appeal to everyone from both a divide to this House not to politicise and sensationalise this issue list of all instigate the native against the Government. This Bill reflects the commitment and sincerity of the Government under the leadership of Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri Sarawak Datuk (Dr) Patinggi Haji Abdul Rahman Zohari bin Tun Abang Haji Openg in dissolving matters close to the heart of the rakyat. Let us therefore move forward forging good will and strengthening the bone of unity in Sarawak as we advance together to be a develop State.

Tuan Speaker, I beg to table the second reading.

Tuan Speaker: Ahli-ahli Yang Berhormat, the question before the dewan is that, the motion

standing in the Order Paper in the name of Honourable of Deputy Chief Minister, Minister for Modernisation of Agriculture, Native Land and Regional Development be referred to the Committee of the Whole House.

SAMBUNGAN PERBAHASAN USUL PENGHARGAAN ATAS UCAPAN TUAN YANG TERUTAMA YANG DI-PERTUA NEGERI SARAWAK

Tuan Speaker: The Honourable Member for Batu Kitang.

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Thank you, Tuan Speaker. Thank you for the honour and the

opportunity to debate Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri opening address at this first meeting of the Third Session of the 18th Sarawak State Legislative Assembly. I support and congratulate Tuan Yang Terutama for his articulate speech, covering all aspects of the state’s welfare, social and economic development, from education to public health, social security and preservation of the environment.

Tuan Speaker, first of all, I would like to congratulate Pakatan Harapan (PH) on winning the 14th General Election. With the new Government, a number of things have been done but there is one elephant in the room that needs to be tackled and I am very concerned about it.

In Pakatan Harapan’s booklet ‘Buku Harapan’ issued before GE14, it specifically

promised to give back all rights that originally belonged to Sarawak as stated in MA63 including Sarawak’s oil back to the Government of Sarawak. Instead, just less than a month after the election, we received a law suit from KL based Petronas against the State Government claiming the oil and gas from Sarawak to be theirs.

Sarawakians must come together to pursue and to demand for Pakatan Harapan’s manifesto on this subject to be fulfilled immediately. After all, this is what has been promised by Pakatan Harapan to the people of Sarawak before the election.

Tuan Speaker, do we ever ask ourselves why peninsular parties are so keen to come

over to Sarawak? After DAP and PKR, Amanah and now Bersatu have indicated their intention and interest to enter Sarawak. What is it here in Sarawak that attracts them so much? What is the real motive behind all these? If it is about power, with 113 seats and 30 million people over in Malaya, they already have it. The Pakatan Harapan are in control of the Government of the day and thus, the nation’s purse is in their hands.

Sarawakians must be extremely careful as to who we let into Sarawak. KL based Petronas has been exploiting and benefiting from Sarawak’s oil and gas by an estimated RM500 billion since 1974.

How did Sarawak become termed as one of the poorest regions in Malaysia? Yes, our

people were less capable and less educated in the 1960’s. That’s the reason the 18 points agreement was drafted by the British to protect the less educated people of Sarawak from the unfair challenges and clutches posed by Malaya and to prevent exploitation of Sarawak by Malaya. Today, our leaders, regardless of race and religion must now come together to protect our land and our people. We have shown Malaya the respect accorded to them in the show of goodwill from Sarawak all these years and now the time has come that they should reciprocate. All these years, they have had a better life because they benefited from our oil and gas as highlighted by the Honourable Member of Bukit Assek in this august House on 10th July 2018. Now it is only right that we use our oil and gas to develop our own dilapidated basic infrastructure.

Tuan Speaker, take for instance, my Arang Road and Capital Garden area in my Batu Kitang constituency. Padawan Council needs RM20 million and RM30 million respectively to refurbish 30 years old dilapidated drains and footpath which are stagnant with water and smelly.

Today, after Pakatan Harapan takes over the Federal Government, they reduce their

allocation of BP1 projects that Padawan Council receive from the Federal Government. How much are those projects are we talking about? At most RM2 million.

Can we trust Pakatan Harapan to take care of Sarawak? It already looks like Item 41 of Buku Harapan is far from being fulfilled. In Item 41 from Buku Harapan, I quote:

“To ensure the prosperity of the people of Sabah and Sarawak by enhancing the

States’s economic growth. Sabah and Sarawak are rich in natural resources, such as oil, gas and timber. But the wealth of Sabah and Sarawak has been exploited and plundered by UMNO and Barisan National to enrich the peninsular, while the East Malaysia states remain among the poorest in Malaysia. This inequality will cease when Pakatan Harapan comes to power.”

This is the exact quote from Item 41 of Pakatan Harapan’s Buku Harapan. We must, through this Dewan, voice our objections to further West Malaysian parties

from coming in to take over Sarawak. When we lose our political grip over our Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak, we shall lose our economy and prosperity. We don’t need more West Malaysian parties here. From the allocation of the present Ministerial posts where Sarawak has been so poorly represented, they have already warned us of what’s coming and is showing us who the boss is. Where are all the talks and promises to honour and to respect MA63? Didn’t the Inter-Government Committee (IGC) spells out that 1/3 of the 222 parliamentary seats should belong to and be held by Sarawak and Sabah representatives?

Page 42: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

Here in Sarawak’s Dewan Undangan Negeri, we decide the fate of Sarawak in our own hands. I have no confidence in West Malaysian based parties that they will look after Sarawak better than we can look after ourselves.

Tuan Speaker, very often we hear that if the RM15 billion oil revenue is given back to

Sarawak, the money is not enough to pay for our health, education and security from the army to the police. However, we all know this is not true. If Singapore can do it, Sarawak can do it even better.

In fact, I applaud Pakatan Harapan’s manifesto. The first thing Pakatan Harapan

should do is to honour and announce what has been advocated, that is, to table in Parliament, to recognize and to honour MA63, to return the rights of Sarawakians as stated in MA63, to return our oil rights as promised by Pakatan Harapan as manifesto under Buku Harapan.

By the way, Petroleum Development Act 1974, is under the purview of the Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperative and Consumerism. Tun Dr Mahathir has rightfully appointed the Honourable Member for Kota Sentosa to be the Assistant Minister in this portfolio… (Interruption)

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Oh, okay, okay. Deputy Minister. Very soon he will be the Minister

and he can do a lot here. Thank you.

Now is the time for the Honourable Member for Kota Sentosa to preach what he has advocated to amend the Clauses that he mentioned before the election under PDA 1974, to return what rightfully belongs to Sarawak. After all, Pakatan Harapan has 113 members in Parliament; together with 56 members from Sarawak and Sabah, we can amend the PDA 1974 and anything else that benefits Sarawak.

Tuan Speaker, we do not want just 20% of our oil royalty as informed by the

Honourable Member for Kota Sentosa in this august House on 10th July 2018. 5% of royalty is equivalent to only RM600 to RM800 million received by the State

Government annually all these years. 20% is equivalent to only RM3.2 billion. Sarawak’s state revenue annually is already RM6 billion.

We want what is rightfully ours. We want to be fairly treated. We want 100% of the oil

revenue that belongs to Sarawak. We want RM15 billion. 20% oil royalty or RM3.2 billion is chicken feed compared to the RM15 billion siphoned out from Sarawak annually. It does not matter that the Federal Government’s finance is in the red now. Pakatan Harapan should stand by their manifesto and declare their commitments to adhere to MA63. If the Federal Government does not have the money to pay us, they can owe us and pay us at an agreed date later. In the meantime, we shall stand firm behind our Chief Minister to demand that PDA is null and void in Sarawak and Sarawak is not just one of the 13 states in Malaysia as no legislations have been discussed and passed through this Council Negeri. Saying there is no money because of the previous Government’s folly is akin to cheating Sarawakians and negating on the words of Pakatan Harapan.

Stateless Children

Tuan Speaker, stateless children remain an unresolved issue which is unnecessarily

cruel to the families concerned. It is upsetting to me as I have pointed out the problem two (2) DUN sittings ago. I remember, the Honourable Member for Bukit Assek did the same.

UN refugee agency (UNHCR) in Malaysia reported that there were 12,368 persons registered as Stateless in Malaysia while Sarawak Welfare, Women and Community Development Ministry had estimated that 60,000 people are without birth certificates in Sarawak early this year.

This is an alarmingly huge number. Ironically, almost all these children are born here

but to either a foreign mother or father. I have personally handled 15 cases with some of the children living in limbo for more

than 21 years old. Most will go to primary schools but once they transition to secondary schools, they were not accepted as they do not have the identity card; our Mykad which is needed for a number of entry registrations.

These children have no access to higher education. They cannot work or open a bank

account or get a driving licence or travel and even getting married. In Government hospitals, they are treated like foreigners and having to pay a hefty sum for treatment. Among these stateless children, there is animosity and anger at the unfair system imposed on them, through no fault of theirs.

For those who managed to get hired, they could only do mostly blue collar jobs while

some were unfortunately being taken advantage of. I have known of children who are withdrawn and anti-social due to the stigma they have to live with.

Timbalan Speaker: The Honourable Member for Batu Kitang, you have one (1) minutes to

conclude.

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Putrajaya’s inaction on Stateless children in Sarawak has been very cruel. I have gone to the National Registration Department myself to help some of the children but was repeatedly told that the final decision lies with Putrajaya.Unfortunately, Putrajaya dragged the issue without a care about the plights of these children. Some of the parents had gone to the NRD year after year but their efforts had all gone in vain.

It is time, the NRD handed over this devolution of power to Sarawak NRD to decide on the fate of these children instead of having to refer everything to Putrajaya which takes years to make a decision. While Putrajaya sits on the matter, the lives of these children continued on with pain. NRD excuses ore manifold: there were too many cases to handle, the final decision lies with Putrajaya, documents incomplete and so on and so forth.

I am hopeful that the Pakatan Harapan Government will hand over this devolution of power to Sarawak for us to settle this matter swiftly. Do not let these Stateless children suffer any longer. Timbalan Speaker: You have to conclude now, Batu Lintang, Batu Kitang…(laughter)

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Ok, thank you very much Tuan Speaker.

Timbalan Speaker: Honourable Member for Dudong. YB Datuk Tiong Thai King: Tuan Speaker, thank you for allowing me to participate in the

debate on the motion of appreciation to the royal address by the Tuan Yang Terutama in this august house on the 9th July 2018. I would like to begin by thanking the Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri for the wise advice and encouragement that he gave during his opening address. We will continue to give full support to Yang Amat Berhormat Chief Minister of Sarawak and work hand-in-hand to ensure a developed and prosperous State of Sarawak.

Page 44: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

Tuan Speaker, I wish to highlight a few issues for the State Government to seriously

consider and realize for the development of the State and the well-beings of its people particularly to Sibu.

Firstly, digital economy. In the competitive global world, embracing e-commerce is vital

to boost economic growth in Sarawak. We are so blessed to have our far-sighted Chief Minister for his vision to establish Sarawak digital economy and to make Sarawak as ICT hub for the region. For this, we give full support to Yang Amat Berhormat our beloved Chief Minister to develop digital economy in Sarawak. This strategy will not only boost digital economic activities but also put Sarawak on the world map. Besides, this initiative will certainly benefit us particularly our digitally-savvy youth and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs). This leap frog strategy will also help to save costs and promote our products and services to the global world. Thus uplift the economic growth of the State and country. I hope Sibu will be included in the plan for digital economy. This will help to attract the professionals back to join the workforce in developing Sibu and to harness the potential offered by a digital economy. We can embrace and celebrate talents of our own people. At the same time, it will certainly help Sarawak to compete on a global level to meet the long term development of e-commerce in future.

Secondly, law-cost carrier terminal (LCCT). I fully support Yang Amat Berhormat Chief

Minister that Sarawak is ready to invest in a LCCT. With LCCT facility, Sarawak will become a regional law cost carrier hub in the list. The LCCT will become an integral part of Sarawak’s transportation development masterplan by connecting the terminal area to the light rail transit (LRT) system. It is expected to boost the tourism, health, service and handicraft sectors, thereby providing economic returns to the state and its people. In addition, as compared to Singaporean Dollar, Ringgit Malaysia appears to be a lower value currency and thus further enhancing Kuching’s strategic location as the hub of multiple tourisms (medical and ecotourism), maximizing tourisms contribution to Sarawak economy.

The design of the proposed Sarawak LCCT would enable the top budget air carrier Air

Asia to reduce airfares and introduce more international routes to and from Sarawak to boost its tourism once it is operation. It will also provide better services to its passengers. Recent report indicated that the Kuching International Airport had a capacity to handle five million passengers a year and it had almost reached the capacity in 2016. It has a utilization rate of 98% and is expected to cross the market by 2020. On top of that, Air Asia flew in and out three million passengers and added 20% seat capacity to Sarawak last year. There is a lot of growth potential in Sarawak.To facilitate this growth, the LCCT will help to expand air connectivity between Sarawak and other domestic and international destinations. The project is beneficial to Sarawak. As such I fully support our state Government to invest in a low-cost carrier terminal (LCCT).

Thirdly, rights and ownership of oil and gas in Sarawak. From Petronas’ perspective, Section 2 and 7 of the Petroleum Development Act (1974) which vests in it the “entire ownership in, and exclusive rights, powers, liberties and privileges of exploring, exploiting, winning, and obtaining petroleum whether onshore or offshore of Malaysia.” In view of this, I fully support our State Government to rely on Sarawak Oil Mining Ordinance 1958 (OMO) as the applicable law to fight for reassuming full regulatory and licensing authority over the oil and gas resources found within the State or resolve any such dispute to protect the rights and ownership of oil and gas.

Fourthly, planning authority. Planning authority in Sarawak used to be under the prerogative of the local councils before it was taken over by the State Planning Authority during the 1970s. I would like to appeal to the State Government to consider seriously on the possibility to let the local councils to deal with planning matters in their respective

Page 45: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

35

jurisdiction. We have nothing against the State Planning Authority but I believe that the local councils, municipal councils and major divisional district councils know best the needs and aspirations of those areas under their respective jurisdiction. Planning Authority in other states in Malaysia are all vested in the respective local councils.

Various problems arise in Sibu due to the fact that local authority has no planning

authority. The local authority who provides the services is blamed by the public for not able to solve some issues caused by the development which is not really well-planned. For instance, the existing road, Jalan Ulu Sungai Merah cannot accommodate the rapid development of residential and commercial areas thus causing massive jam every day. Besides, some of the buildings’ extension are really causing eyesores. For example, one side of the semi-detached house is even extended to three (3) storeys. The application of such extension was rejected by the local council but it was approved by higher authority.

One of the worst cases was found at Jalan Pedada whereby an existing road has been

approved for an additional shop lot attached to the existing commercial building. When local authority took action against the extension, only then they came to know it was approved by the higher authority as the approval shown by the developer. This approval has affected the planning of local council to widen the main road next to it as the road reserve becomes narrow. So people have to face the consequences of using a small main road with high volume of traffic. We wish Sibu local council has the planning authority in development so that the main major road is constructed before the development. We can have master plan so that planning is more organized. It is very important for our local council to have planning authority to avoid similar negative consequences and that Sibu can move forward to achieve city status.

Fifthly, goods and services tax. The move to abolish GST sound like good news to

many but involved a huge loss of income to Malaysia’s coffers. Malaysia’s economy would likely face long term negative effects. In 2017, the GST collection was about RM42 billion and is expected to increase this year compared to the SST collection of RM17 billion in 2014. As such other income sources will be required for the country after GST is abolished.

To date, 164 countries had implemented the GST with the latest being India.

Malaysia’s GST of 6% is the lowest in Asean and also the lowest among the 164 countries that adopted the tax regime. For example, the rate imposed in Singapore is 7%, Thailand is 7%, Indonesia at 10%, Vietnam at 10%, the Philippines at 12%, Australia at 10%, and in the UK it is much higher at 20%. To reduce the impact of rising prices, there is a list of GST zero-rated or exempt on many goods, including more than 500 basic items and measures to reduce individual income tax from 3% to 1%, corporate income tax from 25% to 24% and tax on small and medium enterprises from 20% to 19%. It is not hurting the economy if GST is maintained while attention is given to improving the implementation of programmes and projects that would help improve the well-being of the people and create more business opportunities and jobs. This is in line with the aim of the new economic model that aim to turn Malaysia into an inclusive and sustainable developed nation.

Sixthly, open sky policy. Sibu is strategically located as the gateway to the central

region of Sarawak. The airport is the 10th busiest airport in Malaysia and the 3rd busiest in Sarawak. In 2016, the airport handled 1,469,341 passengers on 24,806 flights and also handled 1,048 metric tons of cargo. Regular flights serve Bintulu, Johor Bahru, Kota Kinabalu, Kuching, Limbang, Miri and capital Kuala Lumpur. The upgraded terminal is the second largest in Sarawak, after Kuching International Airport. The terminal can even accommodate up to 1.8 million passengers annually. But it is so disappointing to note that Sibu aviation services is still under the category of Rural Air Service (RAS) since 2007. It is much regret to note that last year, the Federal Government extended its RAS concession with MAS Wings to 2024. The Ministry of Transport defines the RAS as a non-economical

Page 46: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

36

aviation service to provide access to the interior of Sabah and Sarawak where air transport is the primary form of connectivity to the outside world. But Sibu is an urban town not the interior of Sarawak. Therefore, Sibu should not be under the category of RAS.

Last November, the Government said six routes would be dropped from the RAS

coverage effective 2019. The routes are Kota Kinabalu-Sandakan, Kota Kinabalu-Tawau, Kota Kinabalu-Miri, Kuching-Miri, Kuching-Bintulu and Kuching-Sibu. Again it is so regret to note that Sibu is not included to be dropped from the RAS coverage.

Apart from this, the Government fully bears the cost of operating the RAS routes by

way of subsidies and aircraft rental payments. The annual subsidy Bill for the seven year period up to 2024 is about RM190 million, according to the Ministry. But surprisingly, the airfares from Sibu to any destination is much more expensive than any other towns. It is not only unreasonable but unfair. At the same time, it is a great disadvantage to boost tourism industry in Sibu.

In view of the above factors, I would like to take this opportunity to appeal to our new

Federal Government under Pakatan Harapan and the Ministry of Transport to give special attention to this problem and take prompt action to rectify the situation.

Tuan Speaker, dengan ini izinkan saya menyokong sepenuhnya atas ucapan Tuan

Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak. Sekian, terima kasih. Timbalan Speaker: Ahli Yang Berhormat Tasik Biru.

YB Dato Henry Harry Anak Jinep: Thank you, Tuan Speaker. Thank you for giving me this

opportunity to participate in the debate of the Motion of appreciation of Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak address which was graciously delivered in this august House in conjunction with the official opening of the First Session of the Third Term of DUNS on 9th July 2018.

As a representative of the rural community of DUN N.2 Tasik Biru, I strongly support our Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak statement stating “Negeri Sarawak masih memerlukan projek-projek infrastruktur dan kemudahan asas khususnya di luar bandar. Jaringan jalan raya perlu ditingkatkan dan liputan bekalan air dan elektrik perlu diperluaskan”. The items mentioned i.e. infrastructure, better road networks, electricity and

water supply are on top of the wishlist for my constituency. I would like to take this opportunity to extend my appreciation to Yang Amat Berhormat

Datuk Patinggi (Dr) Abang Haji Abdul Rahman Zohari Bin Tun Datuk Abang Haji Openg, Chief Minister of Sarawak announcement for the approval of RM20 million for the building of a Water Treatment Plant Facility for Bau District during the 2018 REDEEMS Gawai Carnival Dinner at REDEEMS Centre, Singai.

It is our hope that the implementation of the said Water Treatment Plant Facility for

Bau District project would commence at the soonest possible for the convenience and benefit of the rakyat.

Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak had also mentioned that

“Sarawak masih mencatatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang positif. Kadar pertumbuhan ekonomi Sarawak meningkat dari 2.3% pada tahun 2016 kepada 4.7% pada tahun 2017” whereby our “Keluaran Dalam Negeri Kasar’ (KDNK) per kapita meningkat daripada

Page 47: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

37

RM44,000 pada 2016 kepada RM46,000 pada tahun 2017” with our export value increasing

from RM77 billion in 2016 to RM96 billion in 2017. Therefore, with this positive economy, we do feel that Sarawak should be able to

provide an all inclusive road network, electricity grid, treated water supply and telecommunication connectivity for all of its citizen especially those in the rural areas as the State Government have the financial capacity to ensure the success of such projects and there should not be any excuses for the delay or non delivery of these basic infrastructure projects.

On that note Tuan Speaker, I wish to proceed with matters in my constituency that

need the attention of the State Government.

NCR Land: Pimuung Singai

Firstly, on behalf of the people of Singai, I would like to extend my appreciation to

Yang Amat Berhormat Datuk Patinggi (Dr) Abang Haji Abdul Rahman Zohari bin Tun Datuk Abang Haji Openg, Chief Minister of Sarawak announcement on 25th September 2017 during the Bau District Complex earth breaking ceremony, in giving approval for the Pimuung Singai land to be uplifted from the Provisional Lease and to be gazetted as Communal Reserve Land under Section 6 of the Sarawak Land Code which cover an areas of 1,296 hectares more or less.

Tindakan ini menunjukkan bahawa Yang Amat Berhormat amat prihatin dan rapat

dengan masyarakat setempat terutamanya luar bandar khususnya terhadap isu-isu tanah dan berani mengambil tindakan yang significant.

Treated Water Supply

On top of my constituency’s wishlist is the issue of treated water supply. Shortage of

treated water supply has been one of the pertinent issues affecting the daily livelihood of the local communities of Bau District especially in Tasik Biru. The said disruptions or low pressure always occurs during peak periods and festive seasons.

The current surge in demand combined with the aging facilities, that is the plant and

pipeline network of the existing Bau Regional Water supply has resulted in the present situation of Bau District having to face acute water supply shortage. Villages in the supply proximity have to face water supply inconsistency especially for those who are residing on high grounds or who are at the end of the water distribution system. This therefore resulted in the daily complaints of no water, no water pressure, muddy water and so on and so forth.

We are grateful to the State Government for the approved allocation for new Water

Treatment Plant for Bau which would further improve the supply of treated water and consequentially solve the water issue in Bau District, amicably.

Rural Electrification Scheme (RES)

As reported in a local daily on 13th June 2018, Sarawak has reached 95%

electrification coverage due to the effort of Sarawak Energy Berhad (SEB). As at 4 th December 2017, applications for RES for households in DUN Tasik Biru. Out of this, 43% application for RES for households in Tasik Biru is 3,000. Out of this 43.81% or equivalent to 1297 applications have been successfully completed while the balance of 1876 are still in the process or unable to be processed. I do request for the relevant Ministry to either expedite the process or give reasonable explanation for the delay as some of the application from N.2 are from the year 2007. Sedihnya saya sudah 11 tahun.

Page 48: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

38

Setakat ini, untuk Tasik Biru terdapat 1,194 atau 30.61% belum dilaksanakan. Yang

kedua 43 atau 1.46% status bersebab dan ketiga 582 permohonan atau 21.34% langsung tiada status.

I wish to enquire how much does the Government need to provide the electricity to these application and how long would it take for the people to enjoy the RES?

I would like to point out that in Sarawak, we have the Batang Ai Dam, Bakun Dam and up and coming Murum Dam. All these are state owned which could generate stable income or revenue to the state a business that never runs dry, so to speak. With this income the State Government should fully invest in RES projects without depending on Federal funding. The rakyat are restless day by day, feeling disappointed and annoyed by the lack of basic necessities of modern living.

Digital and Telecommunication Connectivity

Tuan Speaker, for the above to take flight, we have to tackle first the issue of telecommunication connectivity in the rural areas. The creation of Sarawak Multimedia Authority (SMA) and the Sarawak Digital Economy Corporation (SDEC) gives the hope that all of Sarawak will be digitally connected with no issue of no service, no network and no coverage anymore.

We appreciate the recent initiative by SMA and SDEC in the identifying areas without

telecommunication connectivity and we do hope that the intended project could take off and be implemented at the soonest.

Time Is Of the Essence

Before I conclude, I would like to point out that “Time is of the essence” in our delivery

of the rakyat’s aspirations. The implementing agencies of all State projects need to rally behind as without the implementing agencies the projects would only be mere promises on paper. The rakyat have high hopes on us as the Government of the day to provide and

protect their interests and wellbeing. We should find ways to cut or streamline the bureaucracy and red tape, the relevant authorities ought to further delegate their authority and power and if I might suggest, we should re-examine the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) that contributes to the delay in implementation of projects.

For example, the project of Bina Baru Dewan Kampung Tabong, Singai whereby the

Letter of Award have been issued but the contractor have not entered the site and start the works, due to the sitting issue which have been long outstanding. Under the Rural Transformation Projects (RTP), we have various implementing agencies however, JKR and the local council undertake most of the RTP projects in our constituency. It is our considered opinion that the implementation of the RTP system and efficiency ought to be improved.

It is important that the mentality and attitude of the Government machinery be it

management, administration, logistics or finance have to be efficient and resourceful. Gone are the days when we take the time to do our tasks and we must practice a sense of urgency-no more sitting waiting for instructions, we must take the initiative so as the tasks at hand could be settled in the least amount of time.

Formation of Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS)

Tuan Speaker, I would like to further state my support for the formation of Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) as it is a right step for Sarawak as she is now more than ever, capable

Page 49: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

39

to run its own ship. However, it is my humble opinion that the State Government and GPS have a lot of things to do to maintain the confidence and faith of the rakyat.

The challenge for us now is trying to fulfil the demands of the rakyat. The rakyat are

now more expressive in their views, realising that they can be an instrument of change. We must acknowledge and respond to the rakyat for we are in fact elected by the rakyat to serve

the rakyat. As recent events have shown us, the power the people is indeed much stronger than power people in power. With that in mind, we as representatives of the rakyat ought to make sure that our actions are right and necessary for the wellbeing and the future of our State and all Sarawakians for we are holding the trust of the people. For we are group of people that are made for the people, by the people and answerable to the people.

With the above, I conclude my speech with thank you, Tuan Speaker and hereby support the Motion of Tuan Yang Terutama address. Terima kasih. Timbalan Speaker: Anymore Honourable Members wish to speak? Honourable Member

for Pending. YB Puan Violet Yong Wui Wui: Tuan Speaker, it is of great concern that the appalling

working ethics of the Government servants need urgent redressed. I have received many complains about the working attitude and efficiency level of the Government Servants either about having great difficulties to look for certain officers as the person in charge are always not around in the office or that no one seems to pick up phone call. It is a norm that in most of the Government Department, officers usually in the morning time, we have staff who reached office just to clock in and then after left office immediately and head straight for breakfast or a cup of coffee at the canteen or nearby kopitiam. Then at around 10.00 am,

there will be second round tea break again. Therefore, if one were to make phone calls to look for certain officer at around that time, there is a very high probability that the success rate to look for any intended officer is low. I was also inform that there are some black sheep who return to the office after lunch break just sit around and do nothing but wait for the right time to clock out.

I am not exagarating here the Government Servants who did all this know very well it is happening. It is also not uncommon to see some of the officers are glued to their mobile phones or that the whole office space is empty without a single officer in it and with full blast aircond on. I would like to single out the working ethics of the staff at house development cooperation. Particularly those staff who processes the application for concerns are indeed problematic, lack of enthusiasm and fall below par. Let me cite few example of it.

First, when application has been submitted to HDC Department for consent to transfer

or charge respecting a residential unit develops by HDC, usually approval will not be granted in less than a month time. Though there may be situation whereby certain supporting documents have missed out from the submission for consent, the officer in charge will never call up the party concern to inform about the missing documents. The officer would just put aside the application and not process it until the time the person who submitted the application call up to ask about the status, and only then the officer tells about the document is missing.

The chances of receiving a call or phone call from the officer are almost nil. It is very

difficult to get the respective officer in charge in order to follow up the status of an application for consent, as he or she is not in office most of the time either because on leave or not

Page 50: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

40

around. If a particular officer in charge of a matter is on leave or not around, no one in the whole section can give a helping hand.

Usually the caller was asked by the phone operator to call back later or wait till the

time the officer is back to work from his or her leave, which can be weeks long. In other words, there are no back up staff if a particular officer in charge of a file is on leave or not around. If asked who else can help? The standard answer given would be “tidak ada, tunggu sampai officer ada, balik dari cuti”. How frustrating to have such unhelpful answers from the person receiving the phone call.

Another incident which just happened a week after Hari Raya breaks. I was told that

when a caller call up to look for the officer in charge to follow up the status of an application, the operator answered the called inform that the named officer was still on Hari Raya holiday and not a single officer was in the office to deal with the matter.

When questioned by the caller, that was already a week past after Raya public holiday

yet why is there still no one working? In replying the person taking the call answered, we have one month to celebrate the Raya festival. Isn’t it shocking to hear such reply given? There is also another scenario, whereby the officer in charge answered the phone call at around 4.30pm, and admitted that the file to be dealt with was on his or her table yet the officer cannot render any assistance at that moment because he or she was in a rush to go pick up their child from school.

Yes, either male or female officer all has the audacity to say he or she has to pick up

their child from school during office hour. Whether the officer concerns do it every day or not, I shall leave it to the Government to find out. Let us be frank to ourselves, a Government can never aspect to deliver good services with such problematic people inside the system.

We are not talking about a Ministry only, it happens in many States and Federal

Ministry. I believe if we wish to improve the efficiency level of the public sector, we cannot let the problem continues. Therefore, the Honorable Member for Batu Kawa who is the Minister for Housing should look into such issue that happened right under his nose. Again I urged him “jangan, tengok saja’.

Tuan Speaker, in year 2017, our State Government had injected a fund of RM155

million through the purchase of 49% equity shares of Zecon Medicare Sdn Bhd. In order to bail out the well known sick Petra Jaya hospital project which was supposed to completed on 29th November 2016 but was however postponed twice to 30th June 2018. The first payment of RM31 million was paid in December 2017 where as the balance of RM108.5 million was paid at the end of April this year, a week right before the 14 general election. I believe the Sarawak State Government is fully aware that Petra Jaya project had long been overdue for completion yet the State Finance Secretary Sarawak decided to go ahead to pump in RM155 million to purchase the share of Zecon Medicare. At that time, the project was completed around 33% instead of 100% full completion as schedule.

Furthermore, it was all within the State knowledge that the reason for the delay apart

from lacking of fund, it was many due to shortage of man power since the beginning of the project plus no commitment from the top management of the contractor over the project. Given so many problem troubling the Petra Jaya Hospital project, Sarawak State Government proceeded with the bail out of RM155 million. In actual fact, such decision has created many doubts in the mind of Sarawakians. Therefore, we Sarawakians cannot tolerate the way Sarawak Government dealt with the whole matter and demand of full explanation respecting the following;-

Page 51: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

41

1. Whether there was any due diligence exercise or risk management study carry out before the State making decision to purchase the equity share of Zecon Medicare.

2. Why Sarawak State Government bother to purchase this 49% of Zecon Medicare

knowing well that the project was already long overdue and have many unresolved problem? What were the justifications for taking such move to invest in Zecon Medicare? Why are Zecon Berhad and Zecon Medicare so special that State Government willing to dump in RM155 million to salvage the contract deal?

Since the Federal Government has terminated the contract of Zecon Berhad building the hospital, who is going to be responsible for the lost of RM155 million of the tax payers money? Why deal to that? There is no official statement from the State Government concerning the failed investment of RM155 million after the announcement on termination of Zecon Berhad contract by Ministry of Health last Friday. Who is going to be responsible for making such bad decision to invest in Zecon Medicare? Is this the end of the story for RM155 million from our State’s coffer? What were the reasons paying up the remaining RM108.5 million in one lump sum right before 14 th General Election when there was only one percent progress in the project from the first payment date in December 2017? I urged that the GPS Government can practiced true transparency over the whole matter and not to sweep it underneath the carpet.

Tuan Speaker, the issue of flash flood in Kuching area has been raised up year after year and still nothing is done by the State Government to effectively tackle the problem. I have pointed out endless time about the serious flash flood at Jalan Mendu, Jalan Elis, Jalan Penyiau, Kenny Heights, Jalan Bidayuh, Kampung Dayak, Jalan Song etc., among other areas through the media TELEKHIDMAT or this august House. Yet till today, I’ve not seen anyone authority heading to the problem or take necessary action. Be it the State Planning Authority, the Ministry of Local Government, MBKS, DID or JKR. What has gone wrong to all these Department and the relevant Ministers in charge?

It is surprising for me to say that these Department person responsible for it, I find just

not performing up to mark. As to why the flash flood started to have happened since year 2016 at Kenny Heights, a high end residential area during heavy downpour. According to the residents, it is mainly due to the newly constructed drains surrounding Jalan Bidayuh and Jalan Lowland creating fast water runoff leading to obstacle to the net drain connecting to Kenny Heights. Second, the newly constructed water retention pond at Jalan Bidayuh is under capacity and ineffective as the whole place will submerge in water. Third, the newly constructed drains connecting to Kenny Heights created additional lot to undersized drains at Kenny Height. Can you imagine this serious flash flood problem? Thus, there is nothing done so far to alleviate it.

Tuan Speaker, as for area like Lorong Foochow 1T, 1V and 1W, the flash flood problem has existed for more than 40 years. Whenever there is a heavy downpour, king tide, the area is submerged with water due to poor drainage system causing damages to the residents properties. After I brought up the issue to the attention of MBKS, not a single solution has been proposed by the Council but merely gave me an excuse stating that the flash flood problem in that area is inevitable because they are influenced by the water tide. The Council further said that they will carry out routine maintenance and clearing works to prevent the drains from blocking and drainage improvement work repairs but subject to the availability of funds. In other words, if there is no funding, there will be no cleaning, there will be no clearing. By providing me with such reply it proves that MBKS has done nothing over the years despite knowing the severe condition of flash flood problem in the area. MBKS is good in giving excuses and the same old reason like lack of fund.

In respect of the severe condition of flash flood at the area of Jalan Penyiau which is off Jalan Tun Razak and beside Chung Hua Middle School No. 3, MBKS claimed that the responsible department to solve the problem is JKR and not the Council. There was once when I was pursuing this issue of Jalan Penyiau with an Officer, with engineering background who is now on contract basis in MBKS. He told all those present during a meet up in MBKS building which took place before the General Election that everywhere in Kuching can be hit by flash flood. If you do not want to be hit by flash flood please move to stay in the mountain area. This is what an Officer with engineering background told us during that meeting. What sort of professional has MBKS hired? Let be frank here. Employed Officers who are only good at giving lousy reasoning. Do you think MBKS could perform diligently to solve the people’s worries?

In view of the seriousness of flash flood in Kuching, is my humble view, it is time the

State Government through all relevant Ministry and Department to come up with a master plan and propose measure to deal with the subject effectively and systematically on the area I mentioned. The people have suffered enough. I would like to ask a Minister for Local Government, who is Honourable Member for Batu Kawah to enlighten this august House what he has done so far as a Minister in charge to address the issue.

Tuan Speaker, be it the Minister or Mayor who are tasked to provide services to the

people then by all means do it diligently and honestly. Do not take the position entrusted to you lightly. Be reminded that the job of the Minister or Mayor is to solve the people’s problem on the ground and not sitting in the aircond office daily thinking of where to go for overseas holiday trips as well as taking advantage of the people by looking for a female all over the place. I was told that the MBKS Mayor has just return from Taiwan, one of his many annually trip. Indeed he is a fantastic and enjoyable Mayor ship.

Tuan Speaker, two days before the 14th General Election, Yang Amat Berhormat Chief

Minister has made an announcement to give a discount in land premium for land at all resettlement scheme area including BDC Resettlement Scheme, Sungai Apong Resettlement Scheme, Desa Wira Resettlement Scheme, etc. The new land premium amount is now is fix at a flat rate at RM2,500.00 regardless of land size. In other words, those settlers in the resettlement scheme who has not apply for title before are required to pay the amount now at RM2,500.00 if they wish to have their title issued. As we are all now under the old premium rate chargeable, land size was one of the considering factors in calculating the amount of premium paid. If the land size is big higher land premium amount is to be charged compare to those lands of smaller size. As such, if we were to compare the new premium rate of RM2,500.00 with the old rate the differential in the land premium paid is huge. It can range between RM5000.00 to RM11,000.00…(Interruption) Timbalan Speaker: Honourable Member for Pending, it is the last minute to conclude.

YB Puan Violet Yong Wui Wui: In other words, therefore, I urge the Government to

consider to give a refund to those settlers who have paid their land premium before the new rate was implemented. To them they hope that this nice gesture from the Government can at least lessen their burden.

And last is on LRT. It is my humble view that the intended construction of multibillion dollar LRT project in Kuching is just a waste of taxpayer money an illogical one who should be shelved until the time is right. We just cannot afford it right now because from the track record of our Yang Amat Berhormat, before in 2010 when he was the then that time he was the Minister for Sarawak Housing and Urban Development he also come up with ingenious idea of developing river transportation as a mode of public transport by having a water taxi system along Sarawak River to solve the traffic congestion problem. But now I would like to ask him where are those yellow colour fiber glass Sarawak Taxi? Where is it now?

Page 53: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

43

Therefore, there is no good track record yet from what he has proposed. So, I urge

that he do reconsider about his plan now by cancelling this LRT project until such time is right because Singapore MRT 2018 financial report even reveal that Singapore where the population heavily rely on public transport system are also suffering a huge financial lost of SD8,600 million a year…(Interruption)

Timbalan Speaker: Honourable Member for Pending, your time is up. YB Puan Violet Yong Wui Wui: Yes, the last sentence. Therefore, I urge that the Minister,

in order to solve the heavy traffic congestion in the city of Kuching or Miri or Sibu, why not let us start with public bus transportation system like what has been successfully implemented in Selangor. With that, I conclude my speech. Thank you. Timbalan Speaker: Any Honourable Member who wish to speak? If not, can we adjourn to 2.30 pm this afternoon?

(Mesyuarat ditangguh pada jam 1.17 petang)

(Mesyuarat dimulakan pada jam 3:06 petang)

(Tuan Speaker mempengerusikan Mesyuarat) Tuan Speaker: Ahli-ahli Yang Berhormat, we will continue with the debate on the address of

the Tuan Yang Terutama. Ahli Yang Berhormat for Lingga. YB Puan Hajah Simoi Binti Haji Peri: Terima kasih Tuan Speaker, kerana memberi

peluang kepada saya untuk menyokong usul penghargaan atas ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak.

Pelbagai inisiatif Kerajaan dihuraikan dalam ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama sehingga menzahirkan harapan supaya Kerajaan GPS dan setiap wakil rakyat serta penjawat awam mempunyai idea, semangat bekerja, berpandangan jauh dan sentiasa memikirkan hal rakyat untuk terus menggembleng tenaga, untuk menjayakan Sarawak berkemajuan. Seterusnya membawa Sarawak ke tahap yang lebih mampan dan makmur dalam segenap aspek kehidupan.

Tuan Speaker, kekalahan dalam PRU14 yang lepas telah memberikan pengajaran yang amat berguna kepada kita dalam melihat kesetiaan terhadap perjuangan parti yang kita sertai dan wakili. Tidak dapat dinafikan kekalahan itu amat mengecewakan tetapi setiap yang terjadi itu ada pengajaran dan hikmahnya.

Meskipun sekarang kita di blok pembangkang tetapi semua itu tidak mematahkan

semangat dan perjuangan kita untuk terus berkhidmat kepada rakyat di negeri ini malah kita sedia bergempur, kita sedia berlawan dan kita akan memastikan kemenangan GPS dalam pilihan raya negeri yang akan datang.

Ini adalah satu iltizam politik yang berterusan daripada pimpinan GPS untuk

membawa negeri kita yang tercinta ini ke arah pembangunan secara holistik dan inclusive tidak kira di bandar maupun di luar bandar.

Saya yakin GPS akan menjadi sebuah gabungan parti politik yang kuat, mantap dan

dapat membawa kesejahteraan dan kemajuan kepada rakyat di negeri ini kerana GPS diwakili oleh orang Sarawak. Sudah pasti cukup memahami tentang latar belakang dan keperluan rakyat di negeri ini bersandarkan kepada sumber negeri kita yang sedia ada.

Page 54: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

44

Sebab itu lah, Tuan Speaker, GPS ditubuhkan dengan dua tujuan utama iaitu

mengalirkan hak-hak Sarawak yang selama ini terhakis secara sengaja dan tidak sengaja dan kedua sebagai platform bagi mengadakan kerjasama dengan Kerajaan Pakatan Harapan.

Tuan Speaker, dengan kesempatan ini izinkan saya mencadang dan mengemukakan

beberapa permohonan untuk keperluan rakyat saya.

Pengeluaran Haiwan Daging Tenusu

DUN Lingga mempunyai tanah yang luas dan berpotensi untuk dimajukan khususnya dalam pengeluaran haiwan daging tenusu. Jika sebelum ini, Tuan Speaker, inisiatif jelapang padi di Parlimen Batang Lupar di lihat kurang memberangsangkan walaupun pelbagai usaha diadakan, kini sudah tiba masanya beralih arah kepada pengeluaran produk haiwan daging tenusu.

Permintaan kepada haiwan daging tenusu seperti lembu dan kambing ini semakin

meningkat khususnya musim perayaan Hari Raya Aidiladha dan perayaan-perayaan lain yang diraikan masyarakat Sarawak. Selain itu faktor seperti bebas penyakit, keluasan tanah, kemudahan pinjaman dan keprihatinan Kerajaan dalam melahirkan lebih ramai usahawan dalam bidang asas dan ternakan ini khususnya di DUN Lingga.

Ini bukan sahaja mampu menjana pendapatan tetapi mampu menampung keperluan

makanan negeri dalam jangka masa pendek.

Membangun Sektor Pertanian

Untuk meningkatkan bidang ekonomi khususnya pendapatan rakyat DUN Lingga.

Saya amat berharap agar Kerajaan Negeri komited untuk memaju sektor pertanian melalui teknologi fertigasi iaitu yang sesuai digunakan di kawasan tanah yang kurang subur seperti di kawasan tanah gambut dan manfaatkan kawasan tanah terbiar seperti menanam cili, rock-melon, timun, peria, labu air dan sebagainya. Sektor ini boleh dimajukan di Stumbin, Soduku, Lingga dan Meludam. Dengan ini mereka tidak hanya bergantung dengan hasil penanaman padi sahaja malah boleh mengusahakan tanaman-tanaman lain sebelum menuai ataupun selepas menuai.

Produk Industri Kecil Sederhana (IKS)

Tuan Speaker, di DUN Lingga setakat ini belum ada lagi kilang dan premis pemprosesan produk IKS iaitu Industri Kecil Sederhana untuk menghasilkan makanan, kraftangan dan pelancongan. Saya mohon agar Kerajaan mewujudkan IKS ini untuk membantu usahawan-usahawan kecil sederhana di DUN Lingga. Menerusi program ini, Tuan Speaker, usahawan dapat menambah modal sekaligus mengembangkan lagi perniagaan mereka berskala besar.

Dengan ini saya amat berharap bantuan daripada SEDC, Mara dan Kementerian

Pembangunan Perindustrian dan Usahawan untuk membangunkan bidang ini di kawasan DUN Lingga.

Promosi Eco Pelancongan Dan Produk Tempatan

Tuan Speaker, Sri Aman terkenal dengan Benak, Sg. Batang Lupar, buaya di Pulau Soduku, Gunung Lesung, udang galah dan ikan terubok di Lingga. Manakala, di Maludam

Page 55: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

45

terkenal dengan Taman Negara. Harapan saya tanggung jawab untuk mempromosi keunikan dan keindahan semulajadi di Sri Aman, Lingga dan Meludam kepada pelancong harus dikongsi bersama kerana rakyat juga akan mendapat manfaatnya. Justeru, saya memohon kepada Kementerian Pelancongan, Lembaga Pelancongan Sarawak, Jabatan Muzium, Perbadanan Hutan Sarawak serta hotel-hotel membantu mempromosi dan membangunkan produk pelancongan tersebut. Saya yakin ianya dapat menjana dan meningkatkan lagi sosio ekonomi penduduk setempat dan tidak wujud lagi Tuan Speaker, istilah bandar mati untuk Sri Aman, Pekan Cowboy untuk Lingga dan Maludam Daerah Mundur.

Rakyat saya juga ingin melihat pembangunan secara mampan di DUN Lingga. Mohon Kerajaan jangan terlepas pandang di kawasan saya. Dalam usaha hendak membangunkan produk pelancongan ini, saya mengesyorkan agar cadangan projek membina Jalan Lingga – Sebuyau dipercepatkan, dan mohon Kerajaan Tempatan menyediakan medan selera Sri Aman yang lebih moden bagi menggantikan kawasan penjaja makanan di waterfront Sri Aman termasuk menyediakan tapak bazaar Ramadhan di kawasan yang lebih luas dan strategik. Begitu juga saya mohon rumah kedai di Maludam iaitu di bawah seliaan Majlis Daerah Betong disegerakan pembinaannya kerana projek ini sudah lama terbengkalai.

Meningkatkan Usaha Untuk Membangun Bandar dan Daerah

Dalam usaha kita hendak menjadikan sesebuah bandar atau daerah itu bersih lebih-

lebih lagi untuk keselesaan masyarakat itu sendiri, maka Kerajaan menerusi Kementerian atau agensi yang berkaitan perlu komited memastikan pembangunan bandar di rancang dengan lestari dan mampan. Maka, di sini saya memohon kepada Majlis Daerah agar menggandakan usaha untuk memastikan kesejahteraan, keselesaan dan kebersihan bandar Sri Aman seperti mengindahkan lagi lanskap pokok-pokok bunga, kawasan rekreasi, mengatur gerai penjaja yang bertaburan dan kotor, sampah, longkang dan sebagainya termasuk di Lingga dan di Maludam. Begitu juga perkara yang berkaitan dengan hujan seperti kilat, banjir kilat, pasang besar, hakisan dan tanah runtuh perlu diberikan perhatian. Di kawasan saya seperti di Lingga, Meludam amat memerlukan benteng penghadang banjir dan pintu air. Masalah yang paling kritikal Tuan Speaker, ialah di Kampung Tengah, Kampung Hilir, Kampung Ulu, Sri Aman. Masalah yang paling kritikal adalah di Kampung Tengah, Kampung Hilir, Kampung Hulu Sri Aman di mana hakisan semakin serius hingga menimbulkan keresahan penduduk khususnya kepada mereka yang tinggal di kawasan tepi pantai atau tepi sungai dalam erti kata lain ada rumah yang dibina di tepi sungai menunggu lagi untuk runtuh.

Sebelum ini Tuan Speaker, saya pernah menyuarakan cadangan dan permasalahan

ini kepada Kerajaan di dalam Dewan yang mulia ini tetapi jawapannya amat mengecewakan. Keadaan ini bukan sahaja menyebabkan rakyat berprasangka tidak baik kepada wakil rakyat di kawasan malah menganggap wakil rakyat tidak bekerja. Saya juga berharap Kerajaan menerusi Jabatan Pengairan dan Saliran lebih merancang kerja-kerja pengukuhan tebing dan benteng termasuk kerja-kerja mencegah hakisan pantai dan membina tembok penahan ombak di kawasan-kawasan yang dimaksudkan saya tadi.

Begitu juga masalah kelewatan projek bina baru hospital Sri Aman perlu diberi

perhatian segera kerana kelewatan pembinaan hospital tersebut menjadi rungutan dan isu yang tidak berkesudahan. Selain daripada itu Tuan Speaker, mohon dibekalkan lampu jalan Nanga Peruan, Jalan Skait Baru, Semayang Ban, Tg Bijat dan penambahan lampu ini perlu di kawasan rumah panjang seperti Rh. Sambau di Entulang, Rh. Ujang di Trusan, Tg Baru, Sg. Daun, Sg. Meranti, Sg. Pedada, Sg. Mulon dan kawasan Sri Aman pula ialah di Kpg. Stawang, Kpg. Tengah, Kpg. Hulu, Kpg. Pasir Panas, Kpg. Datuk, Kpg. Masjid Baru, Kpg. Hilir dan Kpg. Tg Engkabang.

Menghidupkan Semula Skim Pembesaran Kampung Dan Skim Penempatan Semula

Tuan Speaker, pasaran harga rumah di Sarawak ketika ini dilihat tidak menentu dengan kebanyakan harga rumah permulaan sekitar RM200 ribu ke atas serta ditambah dengan ketetapan syarat yang dibuat oleh syarikat-syarikat kewangan yang menyukarkan rakyat untuk membina dan membeli rumah terutamanya bagi golongan muda dan berpendapatan rendah.

Akibatnya Tuan Speaker, ramai di kalangan mereka yang telah berkahwin dan mempunyai keluarga terpaksa tinggal di rumah ibu bapa mereka. Ini menyebabkan sebuah rumah terpaksa menanggung sehingga tiga atau empat keluarga disebabkan harga rumah meningkat. Justeru itu, di sini, saya mengesyorkan kepada Kerajaan agar menghidupkan semula skim pembesaran kampung atau skim penempatan semula di kawasan Sri Aman seperti Kpg. Hilir, Kpg. Tengah, Kpg. Hulu Stumbin, Kpg. Lingga dan Maludam untuk tujuan mengurangkan kesesakan dalam sesebuah keluarga.

Skim ini juga Tuan Speaker, hendaklah dilengkap dengan kemudahan asas seperti bekalan elektrik, bekalan air, sistem perparitan yang sempurna, jalan raya dan rumah ibadat. Jika boleh Tuan Speaker, dipertimbangkan juga agar disediakan satu subsidi kepada orang muda yang telah berkahwin dan mempunyai keluarga sendiri bagi membolehkan mereka membeli dan memperolehi rumah baharu untuk didiami.

Isu Pendidikan

Isu sekolah daif di Sarawak masih belum ada kesudahan sehingga menyebabkan ada

beberapa sekolah di DUN Lingga sehingga kini masih belum ada tindakan selanjutnya biarpun beberapa kali isu ini diketengahkan untuk perhatian dan tindakan berwajib. Contohnya Tuan Speaker, SK St Dunstan, SJK Chung Hua Lingga, SK Semayang dan SJK Chung Hua Maludam sehingga kini masih dibelunggu masalah bangunan dan struktur yang daif. Saya juga hendak bertanya bagaimanakah perkembangan cadangan untuk membina bangunan baru SK Maludam seperti yang dijanjikan sebelum ini. Mohon kiranya Kementerian Pendidikan mahupun Jabatan Pendidikan Negeri Sarawak mengambil maklum tentang perkara ini dan jika ada perancangan dan telah diluluskan, mohon disegerakan projek tersebut.

Isu Air

Ketiadaan bekalan air bersih sering berlaku di Sri Aman, Stumbin Bijat, Seduku dan Maludam sehingga menjejaskan penduduk ketika menyambut hari raya aidilfitri tempoh hari. Baru-baru ini Tuan Speaker, masalah air kotor berlaku di Kpg Lingga. Penduduk berharap Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri turut sama melihat krisis bekalan air di kawasan terbabit di mana sekian lama telah membelenggu penduduk-penduduk di kawasan ini disebabkan saluran paip sentiasa rosak dan pecah dan belum dinaiktaraf atau diganti.

Ketika ini, hanya air di loji Bayan sahaja yang beroperasi bagi menampung keperluan penduduk di kawasan Sri Aman, Lingga, Seduku, Stumbin, Bijat dan keadaan ini sangat tidak mencukupi sehingga mengakibatkan masalah air kepada penduduk. Justeru, saya mohon kepada Kerajaan menerusi JBALB, memantau dan peka dengan aduan penduduk dan mengambil tindakan yang sewajarnya agar masalah ini tidak berulang seperti di Maludam. Kerajaan telah meluluskan peruntukan untuk menaiktaraf saluran paip. Maka, sekali lagi saya mohon agar tindakan segara diambil oleh pihak JBALB.

Gangguan Bekalan Elektrik

Tuan Speaker, daerah Maludam sering menghadapi masalah gangguan elektrik dan saya banyak menerima aduan mengenai masalah ini. Jika tidak dipantau oleh pihak berwajib, masalah ini akan sentiasa mengganggu aktiviti kehidupan harian penduduk.

Institusi Pendidikan dan Belia

Belia adalah tonggak negeri, pembangunan dan pemerkasaan belia adalah menjadi

keutamaan saya di DUN Lingga. Di kawasan DUN Lingga Tuan Speaker, lebih daripada 51% daripada penduduk di sini adalah golongan belia. Bagi saya, belia perlu disiapkan dengan pelbagai aspek kehidupan agar mencapai tahap pencapaian yang terbaik dan tertinggi. Oleh itu, bagi membantu belia di kawasan saya, saya mencadangkan agar diperkasakan latihan pendidikan teknikal dan vokasional atau TVET. Saya juga mohon agar diwujudkan kolej komuniti, CENTEXS, maktab latihan, kampus cawangan dan kem belia di DUN Lingga. Timbalan Speaker: Ahli Yang Berhormat bagi Lingga, you got one (1) minute. YB Puan Hajah Simoi Binti Haji Peri: Okay. Semua ini akan memberi kemudahan kepada

belia dan penduduk setempat di kawasan saya.

Kriteria Pelantikan Ketua Masyarakat dan Ketua Kaum

Tuan Speaker, sudah tiba masanya pemilihan Ketua Masyarakat yang terdiri daripada Temenggung, Pemanca, Penghulu dan Ketua Kaum di negeri ini mengikut beberapa syarat yang ditetapkan. Dalam usaha mentransformasikan peranan ketua masyarakat ini, setiap kalangan mereka menguasai teknologi maklumat dan pendidikan agar setiap usaha Kerajaan yang mereka wakili dapat dilaksanakan dengan baik dan berkesan.

Tuan Speaker, Ketua Masyarakat bukan lagi menjadi pelengkap majlis anjuran jabatan

mahupun agensi tetapi mereka perlu mengambil bahagian dalam menterjemahkan agenda Kerajaan kepada rakyat di lapangan di samping memberi pendapat dan maklumat bagi meningkatkan sumber ekonomi penduduk kampung serta memberi kerjasama kepada pegawai-pegawai Kerajaan dan wakil rakyat. Untuk itu, Tuan Speaker, dalam pelantikan Ketua Masyarakat, taraf pendidikan, penguasaan kemahiran teknologi, mempunyai pengetahuan asas dan semasa selain lingkungan umur perlu diambil kira oleh pihak berwajib.

Sebagai penutup Tuan Speaker, sebelum saya mengakhiri perbahasan saya pada hari

ini, sekali lagi saya mengucapkan tahniah kepada Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri yang telah mengambil langkah berani dan ke depan dengan niat yang satu, kemajuan dan pembangunan Negeri Sarawak. Kepada Tuan Speaker, syabas kerana bijak, confident dan

profesional mengendalikan Dewan yang mulia ini. Tidak lupa juga kepada semua pegawai agensi Kerajaan yang telah memberi komitmen yang tinggi dalam menjalankan tugas masing-masing di mana sentiasa memberi kerjasama khususnya di dalam DUN Lingga. Selamat menyambut Hari Sarawak, Hari Raya Aidiladha, Maulidur Rasul dan Hari Kebangsaan yang akan menjelang tiba. Semoga Allah sentiasa mempermudahkan urusan kita semua. Amin.

Dengan ini Tuan Speaker, saya menyokong usul penghargaan atas ucapan Tuan

Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak. Sekian, terima kasih. Timbalan Speaker: Ahli Yang Berhormat for Batu Danau.

YB Encik Paulus Palu Gumbang: Terima kasih, Tuan Speaker, kerana memberi peluang

kepada saya. Terlebih dahulu saya ingin mengambil kesempatan ini untuk menyampaikan penghargaan dan ucapan terima kasih kepada Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak di atas ucapan kepada Dewan yang mulia ini pada hari Isnin, 9 Julai yang lepas. Tuan Yang Terutama Tun dalam ucapan perasmian telah menyentuh perkara yang berkaitan dengan pembangunan dan transformasi ekonomi serta kesejahteraan bandar dan luar bandar. Tuan Yang Terutama Tun juga menyentuh perkara mengenai pembangunan sosial dan alam sekitar yang mencakupi bidang pendidikan, kesihatan, keselamatan awam, kesejahteraan sosial dan alam sekitar. Kita juga berterima kasih kepada Tuan Yang Terutama Tun di atas seruan supaya rakyat di Negeri ini terus memberi sokongan kepada usaha Kerajaan Negeri dalam memperjuangkan hak dan autonomi Sarawak daripada Kerajaan Persekutuan. Beliau juga menyeru agar rakyat Negeri ini yang terdiri daripada pelbagai kaum, terus berusaha dengan lebih gigih, menjaga semangat toleransi dan perpaduan kaum yang lebih erat demi kemakmuran, pembangunan dan kesejahteraan Negeri Sarawak yang berterusan. Tuan Speaker, kita mengucap tahniah kepada Pakatan Harapan di atas kemenangan pada PRU14 yang lepas dan seterusnya menubuhkan Kerajaan Persekutuan. Kita juga mengucapkan tahniah kepada Ahli bagi Kawasan Selangau, Yang Berhormat Tuan Baru Bian yang telah dilantik sebagai Menteri Kerja Raya dan Ahli bagi Stampin Yang Berhormat Tuan Chong Chieng Jen sebagai Timbalan Menteri di KPDNKK. Tuan Speaker, kalah menang dalam pilihan raya adalah lumrah di dalam negara yang mengamalkan sistem demokrasi dan kita harus menerima keputusan ini dengan minda yang terbuka. Pada hemat saya, Pakatan Harapan menang bukan kerana mereka adalah lebih baik tetapi rakyat lebih mempercayai kepada pembohongan, fitnah dan janj-janji manis yang ditabur tanpa henti di dalam pelbagai platform media terutamanya media sosial. Sebagai contoh, hingga hari ini kita belum nampak tanda-tanda Kerajaan Pakatan Harapan akan menunaikan janji-janji mereka terutamanya janji 10 perkara dalam tempoh 100 hari selepas mengambil alih pucuk pimpinan di peringkat Persekutuan. Kita bukan sahaja masih menunggu penurunan harga minyak ke paras RM1.50 seliter tetapi juga penurunan bagi barang-barang keperluan harian. Saya juga mengucap tahniah kepada bekas gabungan Barisan Nasional peringkat Negeri di bawah pimpinan Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri kerana telah dapat memenangi 19 daripada 31 kerusi yang ditandingi. Ini merupakan pencapaian yang amat baik. Syabas juga diucapkan kepada Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri dan pimpinan tertinggi parti komponen daripada PRS, SUPP dan PDP di dalam membuat keputusan bersama atau collective decision di atas keberanian untuk melangkah keluar daripada

Barisan Nasional dan menubuhkan Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS). Saya percaya langkah dan keputusan ini adalah tepat dan pilihan yang terbaik kerana Sarawak kini tidak lagi terikat dengan mana-mana pihak. Sarawak can now determine and shape its own political and economic destiny, the way it wants it to be.

As we all know, Malaysia practises the British Parliamentary System where each party has a Chief Whips whose task is to ensure that its members will vote the way the party wants it to be. Therefore, since 1963, Sarawak had no choice but to toe the Barisan Nasional line no matter how difficult or unpleasant they were and even at times stooded the detriment of the State. One good exampleis losing oil and gas.

Page 59: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

49

Therefore, I fully agree with the Yang Amat Berhormat Chief Minister’s view that only Sarawakian will understand the aspiration of our multi-racial and multi-religious society and at the same time protect the State’s rights. Saya penuh kepercayaan rakyat Sarawak yang sayang kepada negeri ini akan terus berdiri teguh di belakang Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri dalam usaha beliau untuk mendapatkan balik hak-hak yang terhakis selama ini. Tuan Speaker, tidak dapat dinafikan bahawa kawasan luar bandar masih banyak memerlukan perhatian untuk mengecilkan jurang perbezaan pembangunan asas antara bandar dan luar bandar. To reduce this development gap, the State Government needs to work doubly hard and pull its resources to continue in bringing more development to the rural areas. This no doubt will be a very challenging task as funds may not be forthcoming or easily available due to the change of Government at the Federal level.

Sehubungan itu, kita berharap Kerajaan Persekutuan akan terus menunaikan

tanggung jawabnya seperti yang termaktub di dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan dan juga MA63.

Tuan Speaker, the construction of rural roads including Jalan Perhubungan Desa as

well as Jalan Pertanian was one of is one of the driver or catalyst in the development and progress of the rural areas especially in the field of the agriculture. The presence of these roads rural roads had provided the rakyat easy access to their lands as well as ease in marketing in their products. However, some of these road could not be registered under MARRIS as they did not meet some of the specified criteria. As a result some of this rural road were not or poorly maintenance.

Sehubungan dengan itu, saya mohon supaya kerja-kerja pembaikan dan naik taraf

jalan-jalan yang sedia ada. Selain daripada itu, saya juga memohon supaya pembinaan Jalan Perhubungan Desa yang baru akan terus dilaksanakan di Daerah Limbang amnya dan di kawasan Batu Danau khasnya. Jalan-jalan yang saya maksudkan adalah seperti berikut:

1. Jalan Bukit Sagan / SK Ulu Lubai iaitu dari Nanga Merit ke SK Ulu Lubai; 2. Jalan Kampung Pulau Brunei; 3. Jalan Long Serangan; 4. Jalan Bawang Ubor / Induk Sangkar; 5. Jalan Kampung Rantau Kiran; 6. Menaik taraf Jalan Kampung Bambangan / Braong ke Jalan Utama sepanjang

emat kilometre; 7. Jalan Rumah John Nonong, Kampung Kelati; 8. Jalan Rumah Peter Ipok, Kampung Sepangih; dan 9. Jalan Rumah Agan Siran, Ulu Tubai.

Tuan Speaker, bekalan air bersih merupakan salah satu daripada keperluan asas

yang amat dinanti-nantikan oleh masyarakat luar bandar. Keperluan ini makin mendesak disebabkan oleh pembukaan tanah untuk tujuan pertanian, perladangan dan juga penternakan. Aktiviti tersebut telah mengakibatkan hakisan tanah dan pencemaran punca air atau pun water source seperti kawasan tadahan untuk gravity-feed dan sungai-sungai yang selama ini merupakan tempat untuk mendapatkan bekalan.

Oleh yang demikian, saya berharap Kerajaan Negeri akan memberi pertimbangan

untuk pembinaan lebih banyak lagi loji-loji air di kawasan luar bandar bagi menampung keperluan yang kian mendesak ini.

Bagi kawasan Batu Danau, saya difahamkan bahawa kerja-kerja penyambungan bekalan air terawat daripada simpang Jalan Ukong ke Pekan Mendamit sejauh tujuh kilometer telah bermula. Saya berharap kerja-kerja pemasangan paip dan infrastruktur yang berkaitan ini akan dapat disiapkan secepat mungkin.

Tuan Speaker, saya juga ingin mengambil kesempatan ini untuk memohon sekali lagi

supaya berberapa buah rumah yang letaknya berdekatan dengan kawasan Sekolah SK Ukong dibekalkan dengan bekalan air terawat. Sepertimana yang telah saya nyatakan sebelum ini, SK Ukong telah mendapat bekalan air bersih daripada Lembaga Air Kawasan Utara atau pun LAKU dan saya difahamkan bahawa sejumlah RM950,000.00 diperlukan untuk tujuan ini.

Tuan Speaker, during the Dewan Undangan Negeri sitting in November last year, I

spoke in this house to thank the Government and the various authorities for having approved and started constructing SK Tanjong using the IBS system. Construction using this system was said to be faster and more efficient compared to the conventional method. The project was scheduled to be completed at the end of last year.

Sungguh pun demikian, pembinaan sekolah ini sudah jauh tersasar daripada jadual

perancangan. Oleh yang demikian, saya berharap pihak yang berkenaan mengambil perhatian dan membuat pemantauan dengan lebih rapi untuk memastikan projek ini siap dengan segera.

Seperti juga di kawasan-kawasan pendalaman lain di Negeri ini, Daerah Limbang dan

Batu Danau khasnya. Terdapat masih banyak lagi sekolah-sekolah yang daif yang memerlukan perhatian yang serius oleh Kementerian Pendidikan Persekutaun.

Saya mohon jasa baik Kementerian Pendidikan, Sains dan Penyelidikan Negeri

membantu menyelesaikan masalah ini sebaik mungkin. Saya juga berharap Kerajaan Pakatan Harapan menunaikan tanggung jawabnya selaku Kerajaan di Peingkat Persekutuan untuk terus melaksanakan kerja-kerja penggantian dan pembaikan seperti yang telah diluluskan di dalam Anggaran Belanjawan Persekutuan untuk tahun 2018.

Tuan Speaker, perkara yang berkaitan dengan masalah pelantikan Ketua Masyarakat

terutamanya pelantikan Tuai Rumah bagi rumah-rumah panjang dan Ketua Masyarakat yang diwujudkan atas keperluan setempat telah dibawa oleh Ahli-ahli Yang Berhormat di dalam Dewan yang mulai ini beberapa kali pada masa yang lalu. Perkara ini merupakan masalah yang berlaku hampir di semua bahagian dan daerah di seluruh negeri Sarawak.

Bagi kawasan saya, masalah ini belum ada penyelesaian kerana masih terdapat

beberapa buah rumah panjang dan kampung yang Tuai Rumah atau Ketua Kampungnya belum dilantik secara rasmi. Pada masa ini, jumlah yang mengalami masalah ini tidak kurang daripada lima (5) buah rumah panjang. Di antaranya ialah Rumah Nelson Busu, Menuang Baru dan yang panjang nya 42 pintu dan Kampung Rantau Kura yang panjangnya 38 pintu.

Oleh yang demikian, saya memohon mencadang supaya mereka yang saya sebut di

atas tadi termasuk mana-mana rumah dan kampung baru yang kurang daripada 20 bilik juga diberi pertimbangan yang sewajarnya. Saya percaya dengan pelantikan ini, masalah yang dihadapi oleh mereka terutamanya yang berkaitan dengan hal-hal pentadbiran peringkat kampung dan rumah panjang seperti nikah kahwin dan lain-lain dapat diselesaikan dengan baik.

Tuan Speaker, during the sitting of this august House in June 2016, I have on behalf of

the people in Kampung Long Napir expressed their sincere thanks and gratitude for the

Page 61: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

approval of the construction of a clinic at Long Napir. However, their happiness was short-lived as I am given to understand that the project has now been classified as “projek sakit”. The contractor entrusted with the construction of the project has failed to carry out the work as scheduled. I therefore hope that the relevant authority concern look in this problem to ensure that the project would be completed for the benefit of the local population.

Tuan Speaker, sebelum saya duduk, saya ingin mengambil kesempatan ini untuk

mengucap tahniah dan terima kasih kepada pegawai dan staf Dewan Undangan Negeri dan semua anggota perkhidmatan awam Negeri dan Persekutuan yang telah bekerja keras bagi menjayakan persidangan kali ini. Saya juga ingin merakamkan perhargaan dan mengucapkan tahniah kepada Tuan Speaker kerana telah mengendalikan perjalanan prosiding Dewan yang mulai ini dengan cemerlang.

Akhir sekali, saya ingin mengambil kesempatan ini untuk mengucapkan Selamat Hari

Raya kepada rakan-rakan yang beragama Islam, Selamat Gawai kepada rakan-rakan yang berketurunan Dayak dan Selamat Menyambut Hari Sarawak kepada kita semua.

Dengan ini saya menyokong sepenuhnya usul bahawa Dewan yang mulia ini

bersidang dan meluluskan ucapan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan dan terima kasih kepada Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak sempena Perasmian Persidangan Penggal Pertama Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak Ke-18 pada 9 Julai yang lalu. Sekian, terima kasih.

Timbalan Speaker: Yang Berhormat for Pelawan.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Thank you, Tuan Speaker for giving me the opportunity

to address the House.

Tuan Speaker, before I go to my debate, I have to say PH Government has just in power for two months and all the GPS members of this House are crying like babies demanding PH Government to deliver the pledges made in our GE14 manifesto, Tuan Speaker. Why? BN has been in power for more than 55 years in Sarawak and Sarawak BN never demanded what they demanded from PH. Maybe they are learning to become opposition members in this House, Tuan Speaker. Our CM definitely would not like to see this. I think we have to be mature in this House. What we discuss in this House is about Sarawak. We are not talking about Federal Government now. We are here to talk about Sarawak issues, you want to talk about Federal issue, go to Parliament.

Tuan Speaker, Member for Batu Kitang has mislead this House saying that 5% oil and gas royalty amounting only to RM600 – 800 million only. Did you say that? Yes. Actually, when we talk about issues, talk about figures in this House you need to have proof, Ahli Yang Berhormat for Batu Kitang. In this Estimates of Revenue and Ordinary Expenditure for 2018 the figures from this is, from the Government, compensation in lieu of oil and gas for 2017 is RM1.678 billion instead of your RM800 million.

Ok, Tuan Speaker, we want members when they speak in this House not to mislead the House and pluck the figures from the air and saying there is only RM600 - 800 million when the fact is it is about, almost RM1.7 billion. PH Government has actually agreed to give 20% oil and gas royalty to Sarawak even when we formed the Federal Government. But when we present this to our Chief Minister before the election GE14, it was refused. The press has actually broadcast this.

Tuan Speaker, we are talking about Sarawak. As a Sarawakian, Sarawak comes first in my mind. Not Malaysia, but Sarawak. So we want what is best for Sarawak. But we have to be very mature when we deliver the speech in this House. Instead of belittling PH ok, please give us the truth. Okay.

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Thank you, Tuan Speaker. Even if it’s RM1.6 billion …(Interruption)… YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: So you admit you made a mistake or you mislead the

House? YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: No. No, I don’t. YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Did you say RM600 to 800 million?

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Yes.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Yes. Then you mislead the House or you didn’t know

about the figure? YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Because I checked with the State Financial Secretary’s Office.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Come on this is the budget, ok, of 2017 by this

Government, GPS Government. YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: I don’t know how to read that figure.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: You don’t know how to read this one? Maybe I give you

a lesson after this. YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: But I know that, I know that it’s RM1.6 ….

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Ok, Tuan Speaker. This is the budget ok by the BN

Government for 2017. YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Ok fine. Fine. Fine. 1.6 x 20% it is still 6 billion.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: What do you mean?

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Our State revenue is already 6 billion. We want 15 billion. We don’t want 6 billion. YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: No, we are talking about whether you mislead the

House or not for the 600 - 800 million. Tuan Speaker, isn’t it? YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: We don’t want 6 billion. We want 15 billion.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Come on lah you are plucking the figure from the air.

Give me something to prove. You can’t even chew this. Tuan Speaker. YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: 20% is only 6 billion. Our State revenue is only 6 billion. YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: You can’t even chew this. Tuan Speaker.

Timbalan Speaker: Ok. Member for Pelawan.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Yes.

Timbalan Speaker: Can you get the response from Batu Kitang? YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Never mind. Let him continue.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Ok. Tuan Speaker, I urge the Backbenchers of GPS to

concentrate on the State Election manifesto of the Barisan Nasional now the GPS

Government, and deliver the promises made in 2016 State election instead of worried about

the PH Manifesto. The next election will be Sarawak election and not the Federal election,

Tuan Speaker.

Tuan speaker, this is the first session of DUN Sarawak after the 14th General election.

You give me injury time. I don’t mind to give him the chance to speak, Tuan Speaker.

Timbalan Speaker: If you are allowing him to ask question, I will.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Ya.

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Simple question. Are you with Sarawak? Are you for Pakatan

Harapan? Are you going to honour everything in Pakatan Harapan? Basically MA63, our oil

rights?

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Tuan Speaker, that is a silly question. A very silly

question from Honourable Member for Batu Kitang.

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: Just answer yes or no. Just answer yes or no.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: I told you I am from Sarawak. I am for Sarawak. Not like

you people, just pluck the figure from the air and thought you can mislead Sarawakians.

People are not stupid.

Timbalan Speaker: Order. Order. Order here.

YB Ir Lo Khere Chiang: … (Inaudible) …

Timbalan Speaker: Batu Kitang, you can ask question. It’s not an argument.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: We are in power for 60 days. For goodness sake. Can

you understand English or not? 60 days, you want us to deliver the manisfesto.

Timbalan Speaker: Ok. Order. Order, Pelawan.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Come on. You have 55 years and you can’t even deliver

it.

Timbalan Speaker: Ok. Can we have some Order. Batu Kitang you can’t ask question.

Please proceed.

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

54

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Ya. I mean he is asking stupid questions, silly questions

like that. Like I told you, Tuan Speaker, we are in power for 62 days as of today.

Timbalan Speaker: Ok you proceed, Pelawan.

YB Encik David Wong Kee Woan: Ok, Tuan Speaker. The political landscape has changed

and the rakyat knows who are the bosses and I think our Deputy CM and Member for Baleh

would not utter “Jangan lawan Tokay” in or outside of this House anymore.

But life goes on, Tuan Speaker, and the people of Sarawak just wish that the Sarawak

Government to do its part to bring about changes that is positive to their lives. Rural and

urban folks are facing an uphill task in keeping up with the hike of prices for all kinds of

goods and services after the previous BN Government introduced the GST in 2015.

I must thank the voters who voted for changes or Ubah in 509 or else Malaysia will be

headed for bankruptcy as we have seen how much the police have recovered from the

residence of Najib and his friends, a staggering RM1.1 billion worth of cash, jewelleries, and

handbags.

Tuan Speaker, we have seen the inflated values of RM81 billions ECRL and SSER

RM9.4 billion MPP (multi-purpose pipeline) and TGSP (Trans Sabah Gas Pipeline) projects.

All of them have a distinct characteristic, that they were all awarded without open tender and

thus the leakages could run up to tens of billions of ringgit.

The question I would like to ask this House is, why did all the BN State leaders support Najib in GE14 and why did you all leave BN immediately after GE14? Some of you declared Najib as the best PM ever and attacked Tun M just before GE14 but you have a big U-turn immediately after GE14.

Tuan Speaker, our YAB CM has even said Sarawak has been left out by the previous BN Federal Government and what puzzle many Sarawakian is how long has YAB serve in BN and only realize that Sarawak has been marginalized after BN lost in GE14?

Maybe YAB CM could tell this House how Sarawak been marginalized by the BN since

1974, and why did all the state BN component parties allowed that to happen under their watch. I think Sarawakians deserve to know the answer. Don’t you think so, Tuan Speaker?

Tuan Speaker, Sarawak is an opposition State in Malaysia but Sarawak State

Government with its huge resource could still deliver its 2016 election pledges and the GPS must change from its predecessor module of operation. First it must stop giving out State projects to selected cronies without open tender. Second, it must stop give out monopoly concessions to selected few such as in cement and road maintenance and bridges building. Third, it has to be fair and color blind so that all Sarawakians are treated fairly and equitably. Fourth, it has to be transparent in all its dealings. Fifth, it has to acknowledge that the rakyat

is the Bos.

Tuan Speaker, what do Sarawakians want, you may ask? Actually it is easy to be the Government of the day because the rakyat really are not that demanding, all they want is

good economy, good education and health care, affordable housing and social blanket for the needy and most of all a clean and fair Government.

Look at Penang, a State that was under the opposition from 2008 till 2018, their budget

is only 1/10 of Sarawak but they can still deliver up to the success stories in Malaysia.

Page 65: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

Tuan Speaker, Sibu must not be ignored by the State Government anymore. We need

to improve the transportation woes and build more roads and connectivity of road network to ease the traffic congestion in several areas such as Jalan Ulu Sg. Merah, Jalan Wong King Ho, Jalan Oya, from Jalan RTM to Jalan Deshon, Jalan Igan near Sg. Merah. We need to build the RM70 million Sibu Outer Link which I have proposed to the State Government when our late Tok Nan was still the Chief Minister. My proposal including building two new roads, a short bridge, expansion of part of Jalan Oya and then some of the impropriate of severe roads.

We also need to turn Jalan Ulu Sungai Merah into a two (2) lanes road as more than a thousand houses have been constructed in the past 10 years and there are two schools along that road, namely SMK Sungai Merah and SJK (C) Nang Sang. Traffic congestion has angered most of the residents along Ulu Sg. Merah because they have to face the daily frustration of commuting to schools and to their place of work.

I am more than willing to work together with the State Government on this issues and

give my input to help make it successful. I propose that the State Government set up a special transportation committee comprising of both the GPS and PH members of this House to look into alternative to my proposal as well as the budget needed to bring this to the people of Sibu.

The roads and drainage system under the care of the local councils in Sibu are mainly

in poor conditions and we need to give our local councils such as the SMC and the SRDC more funding for them to deliver the quality of services that the rate payers and tax payers expected of them. For the past decades, State Government grant to the local councils are minimal, for Sibu SMC is only 1.5 million for 2018, as for SRDC is only RM1.8 million for 2018, whereas Bintulu BDA got 200 million for 2018.

Tuan Speaker, agriculture reforms. We all know that Sarawak is the biggest State in

Malaysia with vast fertile lands and yet we have relied on import for our staple food price. Our Chief Minister has said in 2017 that Sarawak is looking to increase its rice-sufficiency to 70% from the current 53% by 2030. In 2012, we have announced that Sarawak could soon become Malaysia’s major rice producer with the Federal Government now seriously studying the potential of a country’s largest state in tackling the low yields.

Sarawak has pockets of land along the coast, in the middle plains, the upper reaches of rivers and the valleys at the foot of the mountain range that can provide more than adequate space for the commercial production of rice.

Tuan Speaker, the State Government also need to diversify our agricultural sector, we need to divert from the old palm industrial and forgot to diversify into agricultural sectors such as floral industry which has a global trade of US100 billion.

Tuan Speaker, can you imagine Taiwan exports orchids to Sarawak. Why do need to import orchids from Taiwan when we have everything that is needed for floral industry to flourish in Sarawak.

Tuan Speaker, the State Government is not taking care of Sarawak based UPK contractors. Tuan Speaker, there are basically two kinds of contractors for the Governments. The license issue by the Government, one is the UPK contractor which were registered under Unit Pendaftaran Kontraktor of the Pejabat Setiausaha Kewangan Negeri Sarawak while another one are the contractors registered Pusat Khidmat Kontraktor of the Kementerian Kewangan Malaysia. That means Sarawak Government issues UPK licenses

while the Federal Government issues the PPK licences. Most of the West Malaysia

Page 66: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

56

companies normally apply for the PKK licences without applying for the UPK licenses issued by the Sarawak State Government.

A lot of West Malaysia based companies with no Sarawakian participation came to Sarawak to obtain tenders of projects and services for the State Government or its agencies or GLCs. They did not have offices in Sarawak and don’t even bother to apply for trading licenses which is unfair to our local contractors who registered themselves with our State Government. Sometimes when their PKK contractors from Semenanjung when their employees have labour disputes with the management they could not find any office in Sarawak and have to travel to West Malaysia to settle the disputes which is inconvenient and costly to say the least.

Tuan Speaker, the question is, why does the State Government, its agencies and GLCs engaged the PKK contractors instead of the UPK contractors? That is the question. The State Government boasts about taking care of our own people and yet their actions were completely opposite when they chose the PPK contractors over the UPK contractors. Example, of this is the city or local councils engaging PKK contractors for security service

instead of the UPK contractors.

The State Government must take immediate action to ask all its Ministries, departments, local and city councils, agencies as well as GLCs to have an audit on all the contractors their engaged and see how serious the problem is to protect our Sarawak local businesses and Sarawakians. Sarawak State Government has no reason to engage contractors that do not even bothered to register themselves as UPK contractors and try to avoid paying license fees to the State Government. The CM should issue directive that all the Ministries, Agencies and GLCs are to use only UPK contractors in Sarawak immediately

if he is serious about Sarawak’s rights and the interests of Sarawakians.

Oil and gas, the Jet A1 fuel. The fuels use by aeroplane and helicopters.

Tuan Speaker, our State Government always talk about Sarawak participation in the State oil and gas sector and that Sarawakians should be given a bigger share in the oil and gas industry but they are not walking the talk. In his winding up speech on the recent Oil Mining Amendment Bill passed in this august House, our Minister has stressed the importance of greater participation by Sarawak and I believe it includes the private sector as well.

Tuan Speaker, let’s just talk about the Jet A1 fuel market in Sarawak. Petronas supply 85% of the market while Shell has the remaining 15% of the market. Currently, Jet A1 fuel consumption in Sarawak is 150 million litres per year or estimated revenue of RM375 million. But there is not even one Sarawak player in this market although to my knowledge there are some companies who have the capability and expertise and licenced to supply the Jet A1 fuel in Sarawak with the DCA’s certificate and MAHB’s license to operate as a jet fuel supplier in the airports and the Ground Handling Certificate CAT8-Avaition Fuel Supply, certified by the DCA.

The State Government should step in to help Sarawak companies to get a share of the market such as maybe Fifty (50) percent participation by our Sarawak companies so as to

help our private sector to participate in the retailing market of Jet A1 fuel.

Timbalan Speaker: Member of Pelawan. Last minute to conclude. This is plus your injury

time. Even your injury time.

Tuan Speaker, Petronas and Shell should just concentrate in the supply side of the Jet A1 fuel and leave the retailing part to Sarawak companies just like the petrol stations in

Sarawak. Tuan Speaker, with that I conclude.

Thank you.

Timbalan Speaker: Ahli-ahli Yang Berhormat, anyone else to wish to speak? Member of

Tellian.

YB Encik Yussibnosh Balo: Salam sejahtera dan selamat petang. Terima kasih Tuan Speaker kerana memberi peluang kepada saya untuk membahaskan usul penghargaan atas ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak dalam Mesyuarat Pertama

Bagi Penggal Ketiga Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak Kelapan Belas ini.

Pilihan Raya Umum ke-14 pada 9 Mei 2018 yang lalu telah mengubah lanskap politik tanah air Malaysia. Tahniah kepada Kerajaan baharu Pakatan Harapan (PH) Malaysia, bukan Pakatan Harapan Sarawak, Pakatan Harapan Malaysia di atas kemenangan mereka. Tahniah juga kepada wakil rakyat Pakatan Harapan daripada Sarawak yang telah dilantik di dalam Kabinet Persekutuan. Walaupun hanya dua (2) orang ahli daripada Sarawak yang dilantik di peringkat Persekutuan.

Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri dalam ucapannya telah menekankan betapa pentingnya perpaduan dan keharmonian rakyat yang perlu diperkukuhkan. Saya percaya bahawa Kerajaan Sarawak di bawah Gabungan Parti Sarawak atau GPS akan sentiasa memelihara perkara ini yang sememangnya telah wujud sebelum ini. Perpaduan kaum dan keharmonian rakyat ini telah membolehkan pembangunan ekonomi yang memberangsangkan dari 2.3% pada tahun 2016 ke 4.7% pada tahun 2017. Bagaimanapun keadaan ini boleh berubah sekiranya rakyat di negeri ini memilih untuk mengundi parti dari luar Sarawak pada Pilihan Raya Negeri yang akan datang. Kita sudah melihat bagaimana hasil di wilayah ini telah diambil sedikit demi sedikit selepas tahun 1959 oleh Kerajaan Pusat dan kalau saya percaya juga PH mengambil alih negeri ini perkara yang sama juga akan berlaku sebab orang yang duduk menjadi ketua sekarang atau Perdana Menteri sekarang merupakan orang yang pernah memerintah Malaysia sebagai Perdana Menteri ke-4 dan sekarang Perdana Menteri ke-7. Saya percaya sebab itulah parti-parti politik yang memerintah negeri ini mengambil keputusan untuk menubuhkan pakatan parti di Sarawak ini

dan menamakannya GPS.

Tuan Speaker, selepas peristiwa 13 Mei 1969 dan Perisytiharan Darurat pada 15 Mei 1969 ke seluruh negara termasuk Sarawak walaupun di negeri ini tidak berlaku ketegangan kaum seperti di Kuala Lumpur namun ianya juga diperluaskan ke negeri ini disebabkan kita sama-sama berada dibawah payung Malaysia. Akibat daripada peristiwa itu hasil-hasil bumi di wilayah kepulauan Borneo sedikit demi sedikit telah diambil oleh Kerajaan pusat melalui “The Continental Shelf Act 1966” dan “Petroleum Mining Act 1966”. Sehingga bulan Julai 1974 “Petroleum Development Act” atau pun PDA telah membawa kepada

beberapa isu-isu kontroversi di antara Kerajaan Pusat dan negeri. Walaupun pada tahun 1954 “United Nation Convention on The Law of The Sea” satu

Perjanjian Antarabangsa yang melibatkan pengisytiharan sempadan laut Sabah dan Sarawak ditambah kepada 350 batu, namun selepas itu disusuli dengan pengurangan ke 3 batu nautika oleh Kerajaan Pusat. Oleh itu, kelulusan Oil Mining Ordinance di persidangan kali ini akan adalah salah satu keputusan yang tepat.

Tahniah kepada Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri Sarawak Datuk Patinggi (Dr)

Abang Haji Abdul Rahman Zohari bin Tun Datuk Abang Haji Openg dan Timbalan Ketua Menteri I serta Kerajaan Negeri Sarawak kerana telah dapat kelulusan undang-undang ini di dalam persidangan kali ini.

Tuan Speaker, izinkan saya menyuarakan aspirasi rakyat dari kawasan saya untuk

membangun bersama seperti kawasan-kawasan lain di seluruh negeri yang kita cintai ini. Saya hanya ada tiga (3) permohonan. Sekiranya Kerajaan persekutuan tiada sumber

Page 68: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

kewangan untuk meluluskan permohonan ini, saya memohon agar Kerajaan Negeri di bawah GPS dapat mempertimbangkan permohonan ini.

Cadangan Jalanraya Dari Rumah Empi, Nanga Sikat Ke Rumah Megong,

Nanga Taroh, Mukah.

Ulu Sikat and Sebakong are major Iban population in this region which is lagging behind in term of development with no basic infrastructure and utilities such as road linkages, water and electricity supply. There is no road linking to this areas and the resident have to use river transport as their mode of transportation to go from one place to another. There are 4 longhouses identified in the area with total population of 1,700 people. The longhouses are linked by river and earth track. Thus, it causes difficulties to the people to access to government facilities such as school, Government hospital as well as commercial centre in Mukah or in Selangau.

At the moment there is an on-going 9.5 km project Jalan Ulu Sikat-Sebakong (Fasa 1) include 3.4km spur road to Rh. Empi, Rh. Radin and Rh. Randi. The objective of this project ist o provide a better paved road to link Jalan Sebakong/Ulu Sikat to SK Lubuk Bemban and longhouse (Rh. Balai, Rh.Jantai, Rh. Seman and Rh.Megong).

The project will involve the construction of road with a distance of approximately 10

kilometres to JKR R1 road standard with a sealed pavement and shoulders on each side of the carriageway. The project will also include the provivion for construction of a bridge and various minor crossing and drainage structures with an estimate cost of RM88 million.

Cadangan Jalanraya Kpg Medong/Lebrasau/Klid, Dalat

As Dalat is part of, under my part of constituency. Kampung Medong, Lebrasau and Kampung Klid occupied more than 2,000 people mostly Melanau, are the major village in Dalat District. The only mean of transportation is by river. The condition seems to be dangerous especially for students who are using the mode of transportation to go to the school at Dalat especially for SMK Dalat and SMK Oya. That is only two (2) Sekolah Menengah on that area.

The project will involve the construction of road with a distance of approximately 11 km

to JKR R1 road standard with a sealed pavement and shoulders on each side of the carriageway. The projek will also include the provision for construction of bridge, as long as I know that area have a lot of river and various minor crossing and drainage structures with an estimate cost of RM44 million.

Cadangan Jalanraya Kpg.Klid/ Narub/ Nanga Baoh, Dalat.

This is also partly under my area. Dalat town which is under Dalat District

administrative is rapidly developed and required more population to accelerate the economic as well as ensure the continuous development in the future. The completion of this road will provide linkage to existing Jalan Medong. There is no road linking to this areas and the resident have to use river transport as their mode of transportation to go from one place to another. There are eight (8) longhouses and two (2) kampungs identified in the area with

total population of more than 1,500 people, mainly Iban, Melanau and Chinese. The project will involve the construction of road with a distance of approximately 13

kilometres to JKR R1 road standard with a sealed pavement and shoulders on each side of the carriageway. The project will also include the provision for construction of bridge and various minor crossing and drainage structures with an estimate cost of RM65 million.

Saya juga berterima kasih kepada semua kakitangan dan Ketua Jabatan yang telah bekerja bertungkus-lumus untuk menjayakan persidangan ini dan terima kasih juga kepada pihak kakitangan Dewan Undangan Negeri yang telah memberi kerjasama di dalam menyediakan tempat kepada kita untuk bersidang pada kali ini.

With that Tuan Speaker, I conclude my speech and beg to move the Motion to

Appreciation to TYT Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak on July 9, 2018 dan Selamat Ngiling Bidai, lepas dah Gawai Dayak, Selamat Ngiling Bidai dan Selamat Hari Raya kepada rakan-rakan yang merayakannya. Sekian, terima kasih. Tuan Speaker: Yang Berhormat for Balingian. YB Encik Abdul Yakub Bin Haji Arbi: Terima kasih Tuan Speaker. Bismillahirrahmanir-

rahim. Assalamualaikum Warahmatullah dan salam sejahtera. Bersyukur kita ke hadrat Illahi kerana dengan limpah kurnianya, saya berpeluang untuk turut sama membahaskan usul penghargaan atas ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak semasa pembukaan Mesyuarat Pertama Penggal Ketiga Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak yang Ke-18. Sesungguhnya intipati ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama telah menyentuh secara menyeluruh mengenai perancangan pembangunan negeri kita. Menunaikan harapan rakyat serta memantapkan pembangunan sosio ekonomi negeri selaras dengan visi dan misi kita untuk menjadikan Sarawak negeri maju yang berpendapatan tinggi menjelang 2030.

Tuan Speaker, senario politik di negara kita mengalami perubahan selepas PRU Ke-14 yang lepas. Oleh yang demikian saya mempunyai keyakinan penuh dengan terbentuknya Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) akan menguatkan lagi perjuangan kita sebagai anak Sarawak dalam menuntut hak kita yang terhakis sekian lama terutama sekali hak-hak rakyat Sarawak seperti yang termaktub dalam Perjanjian MA63. Dengan yang demikian kita berharap agar Kerajaan Pakatan Harapan di peringkat Persekutuan dapat menunaikan tuntutan yang telah kita perjuangkan dan juga janji-janji mereka seperti tertera dalam manifesto pada PRU Ke-14 yang lepas.

Oil and Gas

Tuan Speaker, GPS is the right platform to fight for Sarawak’s autonomy and reclaiming what was due and omitted by the Federal Government. Much hard work lies ahead of us in our effort to improve the life of all Sarawakians.

The devolution of power and administration from the Federal Government to the State

must proceed and be concluded as soon as possible, in conjunction with the return of Sarawak’s petroleum resources.

This is not a complicated matter and with the support of all the people behind the State Government, what has been reduced or taken away for any reason must now be returned to the rightful authority and management of the State.

We are aware that much still needs to be done to bring the standard of development of

Sarawak up to that of the rest of the country especially the Peninsular, in spite of all our wealth of oil and gas that we have sacrificed for the last 40 over years for the national benefit.

It is now high time to think and to be in charge of our own development. After all it can be said that Sarawak development is also in the national interests. We cannot take a back seat any longer. As it would we be asking too much of our people to sacrifice any more than they already have for more than 40 years when we had the means to raise the development

Page 70: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

60

and living standard of our people in our own land. I must place on record my strong support for the establishment of the oil and gas portfolio directly under YAB CM. This is a step in the right directions that should ensure the timely resolution of all the outstanding oil and gas issue between the Federal Government. Petronas and the State in respect of Sarawak’s right and more equitable sharing of our petroleum resources. We still believe in the State government approach of negotiation not confrontation and we will all play our part to ensure that it happens. But we must make it clear that Sarawak can no longer be taken advantage by anyone. The future development of the State and the views and proper upliftment of living standard of all Sarawakians depends on this. We must make it right and make life better for the majority of Sarawakians and not just a few. We must therefore ask the legitimate question why Sarawak and Sarawakians are not enjoying the full benefit of our oil and gas resources.

It must be noted that the Malaysian government’s take of 93% from the offshore regimes is among the highest in the world, compared to Indonesia next at 82% and China at 80%, Norway at 78% and the lowest being UK at 62%.

PETRONAS can now boast that it has a RM130 billion cash balance, as the PETRONAS CEO was reported to have said recently. Surely this can be put to good use in Sarawak, from which a substantial portion of PETRONAS’s revenues are derived. There is no excuse for PETRONAS to spend more money and investments overseas than in Sarawak and also the other petroleum-producing States in Malaysia.

I must say here that we are proud of this, not jealous, but the truth is, still that Sarawak has been left behind. We still lack even basic amenities such as electricity and treated water, especially in many of our rural areas. Many of our rural schools are dilapidated. We do not even have one proper highway yet, compared to Peninsular with tens of highways. Here, the Pan Borneo Highway is still under construction after more than 50 years, and we have no railway. The excuse always given that Sarawak is a big State, is not a good excuse anymore, especially when we see the bulk of our Oil and Gas wealth being used to develop the Peninsular, which is slightly larger than Sarawak. In order to achieve economic parity with Peninsular Malaysia, we now need, in addition to powers on administrative devolution, petroleum resources devolution as well. The present GPS State Government has look into this seriously with the amendment of OMO, otherwise we will never be able to achieve a commensurate level of development and will forever be left behind. While we still believe in negotiation and diplomacy, Sarawak cannot remain silent anymore and just watch the lost opportunities of our own petroleum resources evade us at the expense of our own people and the State. In all of PETRONAS’ investments and operations within Sarawak’s territory, we must ask what are the benefits for Sarawak. Sarawak cannot be content only with opportunities for employment, and even then it is still questionable whether priorities are given to Sarawakians. Many big contracts in billions are awarded to non-Sarawakian companies, who employ non-Sarawakians at all levels, even when there are suitable qualified and experienced Sarawakians. We have seen complaints, for example, where these companies employ non-Sarawakian divers even when Sarawak’s divers are available. Sarawak now has a vehicle with the formation of PETROS, now our State Government can monitor the development of the State’s petroleum industry and to participate directly in it. At the same time nurture Sarawak entrepreneurial development in the petroleum industry with greater focus and strategy. The people are fully behind the State Government in this effort and with the collective wisdom of the present leadership, we trust that Sarawak will soon be able to finally enjoy the full benefit of our own petroleum resources, without becoming too over dependent on them. We do not want Sarawak to become a failed State

61

like Venezuela, a petroleum-resource rich country and we trust our capable State leadership will have the wisdom to manage our petroleum resources properly.

Land Code (Amendment) Bill 2018

Tuan Speaker, saya ingin mengucapkan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan dan tahiah kepada Yang Berhormat Timbalan Ketua Menteri yang telah berjaya membentangkan Bill

(Pindaan) Kanun Tanah 2018 pada Sidang DUN kali ini. Ianya menunjukan bahawa Kerajaan Negeri kita di bawah GPS serius untuk menyelesaikan isu-isu yang berkaitan dengan tanah adat. Melalui pindaan ini, Pulau Galau dan Pemakai Menua digelar “Native Territorial Domain” diberi pengiktirafan dan seterusnya untuk diberi hak milik yang kekal

selamanya bagi yang berhak. Lantas pindaan ini merupakan berita yang perlu disambut baik oleh segenap penduduk asal Sarawak.

Saluran TV Sarawak

Saya mengesyorkan Sarawak perlu ada saluran TV sendiri untuk menjadi wadah kepada rakyat dalam penyampaian informasi tempatan. Saluran televisyen yang dikhususkan kepada Sarawak di samping menyampaikan maklumat, ianya juga membangunkan industri kreatif dalam lingkungan komunikasi dan multimedia sejajar dengan memastikan rakyat tidak ketinggalan dalam era digital. Walaupun kita sekarang dalam tidak sedar dijajah melalui facebook, whatsapp dan media elektronik, saluran televisyen masih relevan sebagai penyampai wadah dan maklumat yang tepat kepada rakyat bagi menangkis fitnah dan tohmahan yang semakin berleluasa tanpa melihat fakta yang sebenar.

ADUN Belia

Tuan Speaker, saya mencadangkan di Dewan yang mulia ini agar ADUN Belia diwujudkan menjadi platform untuk membentuk belia yang berintelektual dan berkepimpinan bagi membincangkan dasar-dasar berkaitan yang dibahaskan. Secara tidak langsung memberi input kepada Kerajaan negeri atas keperluan dan kehendak semasa belia Sarawak

serta melahirkan pemimpin masa depan. Tuan Speaker, seterusnya pada kesempatan ini saya ingin mengemukakan beberapa isu yang berkaitan dari kawasan saya.

Skim Pembesaran Kampung

Diharapkan Kerajaan negeri di bawah Kementerian Perancangan Sumber dan Alam Sekitar meneruskan dan memperluaskan Skim Pembesaran Kampung (SPK) bagi memastikan kesejahteraan penduduk di kawasan pinggir dan luar bandar khususnya di Kampung Litong dan Kampung Sau di kawasan saya. Ini adalah untuk menampung pertambahan populasi dalam sesebuah penempatan atau kampung yang sedia ada. Dicadangkan skim tersebut memperuntukkan lot-lot kediaman yang kondusif dan lengkap dengan kemudahan jalanraya, sistem perparitan, bekalan air dan elektrik. Ini adalah selaras dengan saranan Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri, pada 6hb Mei 2018 semasa Majlis Pemimpin Bersama Rakyat di Igan.

Rumah Mesra Rakyat Saya memohon Kerajaan Negeri dan Housing Development Corporation (HDC) membina lebih banyak lagi Rumah Mesra Rakyat bagi menampung kehendak golongan rakyat berpendapatan rendah.

Jalan Raya Pesisir Pantai

Terima kasih kepada Yang Berhormat Timbalan Menteri Jalan Pesisir di atas lawatan beliau pada 30 April 2018 untuk melihat sendiri progress baikpulih Projek Jalan Pesisir, Balingian-Kuala Balingian-Setuan-Kuala Tatau. Pembinaan jalan pesisir sedikit sebanyak telah mengubah perspektif ekonomi bandar dan luar bandar, yang mana telah memberi peluang pendapatan isi rumah kepada mereka dari segi pembangunan ekonomi. Diharap usaha pemulihan jalanraya pesisir, Balingian-Kuala Balingian-Setuan-Kuala Tatau dari masa ke masa, diteruskan kerana projek ini memberi impak yang ketara dalam aspek ekonomi. Timbalan Speaker: Member for Balingian, one (1) minute to conclude.

YB Encik Abdul Yakub bin Haji Arbi: Okay, Tuan Speaker

Pejabat Daerah Kecil Balingian

Pejabat Daerah Kecil Balingian kini menyewa rumah kedai di kawasan pasar baru Balingian. Saya dengan ini mencadangkan sekali lagi agar Kerajaan negeri mengambilkira untuk membina bangunan Pejabat Daerah Kecil Balingian. Dicadangkan bangunan tersebut berkonsep one-off seperti mini RTC (Pusat Transformasi Luar Bandar) untuk menempatkan

agensi-agensi di bawah Kerajaan negeri bagi memudahkan rakyat berurusan. Ini juga langkah persediaan awal untuk menaiktaraf Daerah Kecil Balingian kepada Daerah Penuh. Saya mohon urusan naiktaraf kepada Daerah Penuh ini menjadi realiti dalam masa yang terdekat dengan sokongan dan pertambahan penduduk dan juga kawasan yang luas. Di samping itu, pembangunan fizikal dan prasarana perlu dititik beratkan supaya memberi manfaat kepada rakyat.

Service Centre Bagi memberi keselesaan kepada penduduk dalam kawasan saya, ingin saya mencadangkan kepada Kerajaan negeri supaya dapat mewujudkan lebih banyak lagi Service Centre terutama sekali di kawasan yang mempunyai kepadatan penduduk yang merangkumi zon kawasan:

1. Litong, Bunut, Tanjung, Sg. Alo, Kg Seberang; 2. Sesok, Sesok Baru, Penakub Ulu, dan Kpg Sau; 3. Temesu, Bayan Ulu, Bukit Ambun, Matading, Bayan Tasik dan Badengan; 4. Jebungan, Tegak, Teh dan Tabo; dan 5. Kuala Balingian, Setuan Besar, Setuan Kecil dan Setejuk.

Perletakan Tukun Tiruan

Antara penyumbang terbesar tangkapan laut di Mukah adalah nelayan kawasan pesisir pantai di N.58 Balingian. Tukun tiruan mampu meningkatkan hasil pendapatan nelayan, dan menjaga ekosistem. Dalam pada itu, mampu mengawal aktiviti penangkapan secara haram yang mana boleh mengganggu hasil pendapatan nelayan tempatan. Oleh itu, saya mencadangkan agar pihak yang berkenaan meletakkan tukun tiruan di dasar laut perairan dari Setuan, Kuala Balingian, Liok, Bayan Tasik, Badengan, Penipah hingga ke Litong Mukah. Timbalan Speaker: Member for Balingian, your time is up. Sorry.

YB Encik Abdul Yakub bin Haji Arbi: Okay, Tuan Speaker, pada kesempatan ini saya

ingin mengucapkan Selamat Hari Gawai Dayak, Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri dan Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha, Selamat Hari Sarawak yang kita akan raikan pada 22 Julai ini. Tuan Speaker, dengan sukacitanya, saya menyokong sepenuhnya Usul Penghargaan atas ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak sempena Pembukaan Persidangan Pertama Penggal Ketiga Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak yang ke-18 pada 9 Julai 2018. Sekian, wabillahi taufiq walhidayah wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Terima kasih. Timbalan Speaker: Yang Berhormat for Simunjan

YB Encik Awla bin Dris: Terima kasih Tuan Speaker. Jutaan terima kasih di atas peluang yang diberikan kepada saya untuk turut sama di dalam Dewan yang mulia ini, untuk Mesyuarat Pertama bagi Penggal Ketiga Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak ke-18. Tuan Speaker, titah ucapan Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak, adalah keramat, menguja dan memberikan aspirasi yang tidak terhingga kepada rakyat. Sesungguhnya, adalah wajar dari setiap lapisan rakyat dan pemimpin menterjemahkan saranan dan cetusan minda ini agar memberikan impak yang positif kepada pembangunan dan keharmonian di bumi yang tercinta ini. Malah, layaknya menjadi pemangkin untuk kita memusatkan usaha kearah sebuah negeri maju dalam Malaysia seperti yang dirancangkan. Pencapaian matlamat ini akan hadir berkat keharmonian dan kesungguhan kita, yang mana ia diketuai oleh Yang Amat Berhormat Ketua Menteri.

Tuan Speaker, seperti mana hasrat yang dinyatakan oleh Tuan Yang Terutama di dalam ucapannya pada Istiadat Pembukaan Persidangan Pertama Penggal Ketiga Dewan Undangan Negeri Sarawak kelapan Belas pada 9 Julai 2018. Saya mengakui bahawa kawasan luar bandar di negeri ini memerlukan projek-projek infrastruktur dan kemudahan asas yang perlu diberi perhatian oleh tampuk pimpinan.

Jelas sekali kawasan-kawasan luar bandar amat memerlukan kemudahan asas

seperti bekalan air bersih, bekalan elektrik yang terancang dan jalan raya yang teratur terutamanya di N.25 Simunjan dan Sarawak amnya.

Justeru, saya berharap Kerajaan negeri di bawah pimpinan Yang Amat Berhormat

Ketua Menteri, Datuk Patinggi (Dr) Abang Haji Abdul Rahman Zohari bin Tun Datuk Abang Haji Openg memberi penekanan untuk membangunkan kawasan luar bandar seperti mana yang telah diilhamkan oleh Allahyarham Pehin Seri Datuk Adenan bin Haji Satem.

Tuan Speaker, penyediaan kemudahan asas yang saya sebutkan ini merupakan

rintihan dan keluhan rakyat setempat di N.25 Simunjan yang mewakili saya untuk mengusulkan di Dewan yang mulia ini.

Setelah keluhan masyarakat setempat didengari, saya percaya ia akan memberi

kesan positif yang drastik kepada sosio ekonomi masyarakat setempat di N.25 Simunjan dan sekali gus melonjakkan usaha Kerajaan negeri melunasi hasrat mendigitalisasikan ekonomi negeri ini. Sakit nyebut tok.

Tuan Speaker, ingin saya nyatakan di sini, pembangunan kemudahan asas di N.25

Simunjan juga akan membuka ruang dan peluang untuk masyarakat setempat terutamanya

Page 74: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

64

golongan belia meningkatkan ekonomi melalui penyediaan peluang pekerjaan dan perniagaan untuk mereka seperti mana yang telah dirancang dalam Strategi Pelan Ekonomi Digital Kerajaan Negeri.

Penguasaan teknologi terkini juga akan merapatkan jurang antara belia di bandar dan

belia di luar bandar yang saya yakini akan melahirkan lebih ramai modal insan yang berdaya saing untuk menjadi pelapis pemimpin kini.

Tuan Speaker, perubahan corak berpolitik di negeri ini menerusi penubuhan

Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) oleh pimpinan Kerajaan negeri disifatkan amat mendekati rakyat Sarawak dengan hasratnya yang akan menjadi landasan memperjuangkan hak dan autonomi negeri ini.

Saya percaya GPS akan menjadi tulang belakang dalam penyatuan semua rakyat untuk berjuang menuntut hak Sarawak dari Kerajaan Persekutuan selaras dengan Perjanjian Malaysia 1963 dan Perlembagaan Persekutuan khususnya untuk pembangunan industri sumber minyak dan gas Sarawak.

Saya turut mengakui, penubuhan Petroleum Sarawak Berhad iaitu PETROS adalah

tindakan wajar untuk memastikan anak tempatan berkecimpung membangunkan industri minyak dan gas dari hasil bumi Sarawak sendiri dengan jalinan kerjasama PETRONAS demi untuk kepentingan negara Malaysia amnya dan negeri ini khasnya.

Bandar Baru Simunjan

Tuan Speaker, pada mesyuarat kedua bagi Penggal Kedua Dewan Undangan Negeri

Sarawak kelapan belas yang lalu, saya telah mengusulkan agar pengwujudan “Bandar Baru Simunjan” atau pun “Simunjan New Township” diwujudkan di daerah Simunjan. Namun

sehingga kini, tiada tindakan susulan dari Kerajaan Negeri untuk merealisasikan permohonan ini.

Pengwujudan “Bandar Baru Simunjan” atau pun “Simunjan New Township” ini amatlah ditagih ketika ini di N.25 Simunjan. Ini kerana keadaan Pekan Simunjan yang kian sesak dan fenomena hakisan serta jalan masuk ke pekan Simunjan iaitu Jalan Kampung Nanas adalah sempit.

Cadangan bandar baru ini tentunya akan menjadi platform dalam mentranformasikan

Simunjan sejajar dengan statusnya sebagai Pusat Pentadbiran Daerah Simunjan. Selain daripada itu, tentunya ia berperanan sebagai tempat kediaman penduduk, rumah-rumah kedai malah pejabat-pejabat untuk pihak swasta seperti institusi kewangan dan pendidikan.

Sehubungan itu, di Dewan yang mulia ini, saya ingin mengusulkan sekali lagi

pengwujudan “Bandar Baru Simunjan” atau pun “Simunjan New Township” amat diperlukan

kerana hasrat ini merupakan keluhan utama masyarakat setempat di DUN N.25 Simunjan.

Saya amat merasa sedih dan rasa kecewa kerana Simunjan adalah sebuah daerah yang tertua di daerah Sarawak belum pernah merasa sebuah pun rumah mesra rakyat atau pun didirikan perumahan di daerah Simunjan.

Pembesaran Kampung

Tuan Speaker, Simunjan Proper khasnya di N.25 Simunjan kini menghadapi masalah kepadatan penduduk. Untuk makluman Dewan yang mulia ini ramai warga tempatan yang terpaksa tinggal di kuarters pekerja ladang sawit Simunjan. Selain untuk bekerja, mereka

Page 75: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

65

terpaksa tinggal di kuarters yang disediakan oleh pihak ladang memandangkan tiada tanah

untuk didiami dan terdapat juga banyak ketua isi rumah yang berkongsi rumah.

Ini adalah petanda, perlunya langkah yang drastik seperti Rancangan Pembesaran Kampung dan Rancangan Penempatan Semula Penduduk dilaksanakan demi untuk faedah

penduduk di Daerah Simunjan khasnya di Simunjan proper.

Tuan Speaker, perbincangan antara saya bersama Yang Berhormat Dato Sri Hajjah Nancy Haji Shukri (Ahli Parlimen Batang Sadong), Pejabat Daerah Simunjan dan Jabatan Tanah dan Survei Samarahan pada tahun 2016 yang lalu telah mengenal pasti tanah Kerajaan seluas sekitar 40 hektar sesuai untuk dibangunkan dengan cadangan lokasi

pembesaran kampung atau lokasi untuk cadangan penempatan semula penduduk.

Untuk itu, satu kertas kerja telah pun disiapkan oleh Pejabat Daerah Simunjan dan telah pun dikemukakan kepada Jabatan Tanah Dan Survei Samarahan untuk dipertimbangkan dan diambil tindakan.

Kita berharap cadangan ini mendapat perhatian daripada Kerajaan Negeri menerusi agensi-agensi yang berkaitan demi faedah penduduk kawasan luar bandar seperti Simunjan. Dengan ini, sekali lagi saya ingin memberikan penekanan tentang keperluan bagi perlaksanaan Rancangan Pembesaran Kampung dan Rancangan Penempatan Semula penduduk di Simunjan Proper dan N.25 Simunjan khususnya. Begitu juga inisiatif daripada badan-badan Kerajaan Persekutuan dan Negeri yang berkaitan untuk memajukan cadangan Program Perumahan Rakyat di Simunjan Proper.

Tuan Speaker, perlu saya nyatakan di Dewan yang mulai ini bahawa ketika ini kebanyakan keadaan bangunan pejabat jabatan-jabatan yang terdapat di Pekan Simunjan seperti Jabatan Hutan, Jabatan Pertanian, RELA, Jabatan Kesihatan, Pejabat POS, Jabatan Penerangan, Jabatan Kebajikan, Jabatan Pendaftaran dan BOMBA tidak lagi kondusif dan tidak selamat dan ada yang telah terlalu daif.

Fizikal bangunan yang usang sememangnya tidak menepati sasaran Kerajaan dalam membeikan perkhidmatan yang cekap apa lagi untuk memberikan keselesaan kepada rakyat yang ingin mendapatkan perkhidmatan. Justeru itu, pembinaan bangunan dan

kuarters Kerajaan juga amat diperlukan di N.25 Simunjan.

Tuan Speaker, institusi pendidikan atau pusat teknikal harus diwujudkan sebagai usaha melahirkan generasi muda yang berkemahiran di daerah Simunjan. Antara institusi yang perlu diwujudkan adalah seperti Kolej Komuniti, Pusat Giat MARA, CENTEXS dan lain-

lain institusi kemahiran yang berkaitan.

Dengan adanya kemudahan pendidikan yang disediakan oleh Kerajaan Negeri, saya yakin lebih ramai golongan belia berintelektual lahir dari N.25 Simunjan. Selain daripada itu, ianya juga dapat membuka peluang pekerjaan serta mengurangkan kadar pengangguran

golongan belia di kawasan luar bandar yang ramai tercicir dari arus pendidikan.

Institusi pendidikan ini juga diyakini akan dapat membasmi gejala sosial golongan belia terutamanya pengambilan dadah, perjudian dalam talian, masalah ragut, kecurian dan pelbagai lagi aktiviti negatif yang membimbangkan.

Tuan Speaker, untuk meningkatkan ekonomi masyarakat di luar bandar, saya merayu Kerajaan negeri agar membina Pusat Usahawan Bumiputera di daerah Simunjan. Pusat Usahawan Bumiputera ini akan menjadi satu lokasi pengumpulan para usahawan tempatan untuk menjual produk dan hasil tangan mereka memandangkan pekerjaan utama

masyarakat setempat adalah petani dan nelayan.

Page 76: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

66

Pusat Usahawan Bumiputera yang dicadangkan ini juga akan menjadi pusat pengumpulan hasil pertanian masyarakat setempat seperti buah nanas, buah pisang dan buah jagung. Begitu juga dengan hasil tangkapan nelayan tempatan seperti udang dan ikan

air tawar dapat dipasarkan di pusat pengumpulan ini.

Permohonan ini amat diperlukan memandangkan ia membantu rakyat memperolehi pendapatan sampingan dan sekali gus menjadi tarikan masyarakat luar mengunjungi daerah Simunjan. Secara tidak langsung boleh meningkatkan sosio ekonomi masyarakat setempat

dan mempromosikan daerah Simunjan sebagai daerah yang tertua di negeri ini.

Tuan Speaker, di Dewan yang mulia ini, sekali lagi saya ingin menarik perhatian kepada Kerajaan negeri agar meluluskan peruntukan untuk membangunkan kemudahan pelancongan di kawasan Gunung Ngeli memandangkan permohonan tersebut tidak diluluskan oleh Kementerian Pelancongan, Kesenian dan Kebudayaan seperti yang dinyatakan oleh Menteri Muda Pelancongan, Kesenian dan Kebudayaan, Datuk Lee Kim

Shin ketika menjawab soalan lisan pada 10 Julai 2018 yang lepas.

Gunung Ngeli yang merupakan salah satu ikon di Simunjan, seharusnya dibangunkan sebagai produk pelancongan yang amat berharga untuk negeri Sarawak yang tercinta. Gunung ini mempunyai koleksi tumbuhan yang sangat bernilai seperti Tongkat Ali, tumbuhan herba, orkid dan sebagainya. Disebabkan itu, Gunung Ngeli akan menjadi Taman Botani semulajadi yang mempunyai nilai estetika yang cukup tinggi.

Begitu juga dengan kepelbagaian serangga dan unggasnya. Ini telah dijelaskan dalam catatan kajian, Alfred Russel Wallace di Gunung Ngeli pada tahun 1854 sehingga

1856. -

Timbalan Speaker: Ahli Yang Berhormat for Simunjan, one (1) minute to conclude.

YB Encik Alwa Bin Dris: Okay. Warisan dan kekayaan fauna dan flora inilah yang harus

diberikan perhatian untuk dibangunkan, dipelihara serta diketengahkan untuk tatapan pelancong dan khazanah warisan alam kepada generasi baru kita.

Selain daripada itu, peninggalan sejarah aktiviti perlombongan Arang Batu Zaman Pemerintahan Brooke, Zaman Kolonial British dan Jepun yang beroperasi dari tahun 1874 sehingga 1931 yang ada di Gunung Ngeli ini wajar diberikan nafas baru dan dibangunkan

agar menjadi permata tarikan industri pelancongan di Sarawak.

Selain daripada itu, tebingan Sungai Batang Sadong juga perlu dibangunkan untuk tujuan riadah dan sukan air.

Untuk makluman Ahli Dewan, projek benteng hakisan sepanjang 560 meter di Pekan Simunjan yang menelan kos RM13 juta dijangka siap tahun ini.

Setelah siap projek ini saya berharap Kerajaan Negeri dapat meluluskan peruntukan bagi tujuan pengindahan benteng hakisan tersebut untuk dinaiktaraf seperti Tebingan Sungai Kampung Buntal atau pun Tebingan Sungai Kuching.

Kawasan ini juga merupakan tapak Pesta Simunjan yang diadakan secara dwi tahunan. Di samping itu juga, masyarakat setempat serta pengunjung luar dapat melihat kehadiran benak di Sungai Batang Sadong dengan kemudahan Tebingan Sungai itu nanti.

Tebingan Sungai itu juga boleh dijadikan lokasi untuk penggemar aktiviti memancing dari daerah Simunjan dan sekitarnya.

Timbalan Speaker: Time is up, can you please conclude.

Page 77: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

Y.B Encik Awla Bin Dris: Sikit Tuan Speaker.

Bekalan Elektrik

Seperti yang sedia maklum, Batang Sadong terkenal dengan jambatan yang terpanjang merentasi sungai iaitu Jambatan Batang Sadong. Selain daripada itu, daerah Simunjan juga mempunyai beberapa jambatan lain seperti Jambatan Simunjan, Jambatan Gedong dan sebagainya.

Namun fasiliti jambatan itu tidak dilengkapi bekalan elektrik seperti lampu jalan untuk

menerangi kawasan sekitarnya. Keadaan ini amat bebahaya kepada pengguna yang melalui jambatan tersebut.

Kemudahan-kemudahan lampu jalan di setiap kampung di kawasan N25 Simunjan juga amat diperlukan memandangkan Simunjan menjadi laluan alternatif penduduk menuju ke bahagian berhampiran seperti Bahagian Samarahan, Bahagian Serian dan Bandaraya Kuching.

Selain daripada itu, masih terdapat beberapa kampung yang belum menerima bekalan

elektrik seperti Kampung Sungai Jong dan Kampung Sedilo. Maka dengan ini saya harap Kerajaan Negeri melalui Kementerian wajib memberi

perhatian dan mengambil tindakan untuk menyediakan kemudahan asas ini.

Timbalan Speaker: Have you finish Ahli Yang Berhormat for Simunjan? YB Encik Awla Bin Dris: Tuan Speaker, sekali lagi saya ingin mengucapkan setinggi terima

kasih di atas kesempatan ini, untuk menyertai perbahasan menyokong ucapan perasmian Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak walaupun ucapan saya belum habis. Dengan doa, semoga Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak sentiasa dianugerahkan kesihatan yang baik. Dengan ini, saya mohon untuk menyokong. Sekian terima kasih. Timbalan Speaker: Yang Berhormat for Pujut.

YB Dr Ting Tiong Choon: Thank you Tuan Deputy Speaker for giving me the chance and

time to participate in the debate on the Motion of thanks to the address by the Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak.

First, I would like to congratulate Pakatan Harapan, under the leadership of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohammed, in winning the Federal government on the 9 th of May 2018. I would also like to congratulate Pakatan Harapan Sarawak for achieving an outstanding result in winning the 12 of the 31 parliamentary seats in Sarawak. On 509, the voters in Malaysia has decided that “Enough is Enough” and removed Barisan Nasional from Putrajaya and voted in the Pakatan Harapan to govern Malaysia for the next five (5) years. The victory not only changed the course of the political history of Malaysia as a nation but the so-called “unsinkable Titanic” Barisan Nasional has virtually divided into small fragments. The divorce of the 4 component parties in Sarawak from Barisan Nasional will change the political landscape in Sarawak and hopefully we as Sarawakians can move forward to be more autonomous and independent from the Federal controls. And most Sarawakians would have known, many of the autonomy rights were given away by the regime of Sarawak Barisan Nasional government in the past few decades.

Tuan Speaker, it is interesting to note that after four (4) days of sitting, none of the

Barisan Nasional members, not even one has owned up to the defeat of BN government in GE14. Not even one question was asked regarding the disastrous results of BN government,

Page 78: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

68

and losing 12 out of 31 seats, or nearly 40% of the seats in Sarawak is not a laughing matter.

And in contrast, some of the members, including the government Ministers have even

cried foul on the victory and success of the new Pakatan Harapan Government. Tuan Speaker, the recent election result shall set a warning sign to the now GPS Sarawak government, that our job is to assist the community to live a better life, not to enrich ourselves. That we shall be prepared to listen to the voices of the Sarawak people.

Here, I would like to clarify what the member for Batu Kitang had said this morning. In

GE14, Pakatan Harapan did win 113 seats and that included the 15 seats from East Malaysia. So, Malaya has only won 98 seats.

On the oil and gas royalty for Sarawak, the budget paper for 2018 has clearly stated

that the total royalty to be received in 2018 is 1.697 billion ringgit, not the 600 to 800 million ringgits as described by member for Batu Kitang. Timbalan Speaker: Ahli Yang Berhormat for Pujut, I think the point has been made. Can you proceed to the next point. YB Dr Ting Tiong Choon: I am not sure where the member for Batu Kitang got his figures

from, or was he deliberately misleading the House.

I hope post GE14 will bring a new paradigm and awakening of politics in Malaysia and Sarawak. We would like to see a more moderate, a more compassionate, a fairer and less corrupted Government.

Miri Tourism

Miri, frequently known as Miri Resort City, has just celebrated 13 th anniversary of City

Status in the last weekend. Miri has grown tremendously in the past 3 decades. Since achieving the city status back in 2005, we have been pushing for tourism growth but so far has not been see the rewards. Despite blessed with abundant natural resources such as UNESCO World Heritage Mulu National Parks, historic Niah Cave and many beautiful beaches, we are not rewarded with tourists coming to Miri. Are we not doing the right things?

Tuan Speaker, much efforts to promote Miri overseas has not yielded success. Can the

Minister please clarify the future actions to be taken to promote Miri as the destinations for tourists? Whether promotion should focus on domestic or ASEAN markets before embarking on international markets?

Petroleum Museum

After spending nearly RM200,000 to repair the ducted air-conditioning last year, it is reported that the air-conditioner at Petroleum Museum is terminally sick now and will need a full replacement of the air-conditioning system. Tuan Speaker, how could this have happened, RM200,000 for six (6) months usage? According to the record, the company who has won the tender to repair is a small family business from Kuching. I would like the Minister to confirm that the recommendation and the repair of the air-conditioner of Petroleum Museum last year was according to specification and standard.

Associated with the air-conditioning of Petroleum Museum, a few compressors of air-

conditioners were missing soon after installation two (2) years ago. I put these “missing” compressors loosely as I believe compressors have limited markets and only people in the know will purchased the stolen compressors. Now, the State Government has called a

Page 79: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

69

tender to build a Perimeter Fencing around the Petroleum Museum, which will cost another RM200,000.00, just to prevent compressors to go missing.

Tuan Speaker, the Government has just spent RM700,000 to upgrade Petroleum

Museum last year, and now we are going to spend at least another RM400,000 on the new air-conditioners and fencing. Are we throwing good money into a black hole?

I urge the State Government to call off the tender to build the Perimeter Fencing and

Air-conditioner replacement immediately, but instead fund should be allocated to renovate the old resident office building, which is left rotting for 2 years now. The building was designated as a museum and it would be ideal to incorporate the Petroleum Museum into this building and to making sure regular maintenance is done. The new Miri Museum will be a tourist hotspot as it is located right in the centre of Miri City. The Petroleum Museum can be rented out to generate additional income for the new museum.

Miri Port

Miri needs a usable port. It is irrational if Miri Port is left continuously at its current stage. The inability to use Miri Port effectively for imports and exports is costing Mirians tens of million each year.

Tuan Speaker, there are private consortiums who are interested to develop Miri Port by deepening its channel to up to 8 metres. By deepening the channels from the current depth to 8 metres will see Miri Port to handle 80% of the imports and exports in Northern Sarawak rather than its current 30%. The vast natural resources in Baram, coupled with thousands of hectares of available industrial lands in Kuala Baram will take Miri to an unprecedented level of growth if we have a suitable Miri Port. A deepened Miri Port will enable Miri to revive the ship building industry, increase export markets, expansion of various industries etc. Everyone is at a lost as to why the Sarawak Government is not agreeable to deepen the Miri Port. Is the Government deliberately hampering the development of Miri Port? Is there a hidden agenda? It is imperative for Miri to have a deep port to generate future economic growth. It can spur industrial and employment growth. It can reduce illegal import activities. Can the Minister please explain any reasons for not developing Miri Port? I believe the Sarawak government can do better with Miri Port.

Tuan Speaker, on 23rd June 2016, our honourable Minister for Infrastructure Development and Transportation has promised to invite private sector to carry out the deepening of Miri Port. Now 2 years later, can the Minister please advise this house on the progress of Miri Port project? Or whether the invitation to Private sector still valid?

Seberkas Pasar Malam

In the previous DUN sitting, I called for a more permanent structure for the Miri Seberkas Pasar Malam. It was a pleasant surprise when the State Government has provided funds and has now upgraded the Seberkas Pasar Malam.

While I was visiting the Pasar Malam market recently, I was faced with a few hawkers

who were verbally abusive and threatening. This was what was said to me, “Ini tempat bukan awak kuasa. Ini tempat ialah MCC berkuasa kepada Persatuan Pasar Malam. YB jangan kacau disini. Ini ialah tempat MCC dan Menteri saja”. Of course, the tone of the

original sentences was very much louder and more aggressive. This group then became aggressive and started physical contact toward others. We

feared for our safety at the time and called the Police for assistance. It took about 20 minutes for the two policemen to calm the situation.

Page 80: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

70

According to the local hawkers at Pasar Malam, a few of the hawkers are occupying

two or even three spaces, resulting many other potential applicants not able to enter Pasar Malam hawker business despite there are supposedly 38 vacant spaces available on record. Miri local authority should take immediate action against these “Jamal” behaviour before the Pasar Malam generated into and becoming a “protected territory” of the group.

Tuan Speaker, Saberkas Pasar Malam is under the authority of Miri City Council yet

this group of hawkers claimed that they have the full authority on this market including who can come in, and who are not allow to come. May I ask the Local Minister, Local Government Minister who has the authority for Saberkas Pasar Malam, who is it? Is it Miri City Council or this so-called Persatuan Pasar Malam? Has the council gave the responsibility of the market to this group of hooligan like behaviour?

Infrastructure Development

A new road extension was recently built in Piasau Industrial area. It is a new 750 meters double-lane Jalan Piasau, connecting Jalan Pujut to Jalan Datuk Edward Jeli. The budget for the construction was reported to be approximately RM880,000.00. Since the road opened to the public use in early April, just before the election, we have seen the collapsed road structure, broken road edges, kerbs been knocked down and the whole stretch of uneven road.

Tuan Speaker, I believe this Jalan Piasau is not built according to the usual standard. When a pothole appeared a month after the road opened to the public usage, it was discovered that the bituman was laid over a bare concrete slab, and below that a loose iron-mesh over a natural drain. How can this road be sustainable in the industrial area? This road structure was only discovered when the pothole appeared. Miri City Council’s explanation for this was “the contractor can only build this poor standard road because the budget was not adequate”.

Can the Minister advise this House whether it is true that sub-standard 750 meters Jalan Piasau was build because RM880,000.00 budget was too small. Our road users in Miri need to risk our life because the road was not build according to the standard or was the design not up to the standard? We would appreciate if the Minister can investigate the process of the construction of Jalan Piasau including the design, the tendering process, the construction and supervision of the constructing work and the final approval of Jalan Piasau.

Tuan Speaker, a few thousand residents residing along Baram River between Marudi and Long Lama have been the forgotten people in Ulu Baram. Many of these residents are the poorest Punan communities in Sarawak. The 20 to 30 kampungs adjacent or near this section of Baram River have very poor road infrastructures or very expensive private transportation. A suitable transport is to use river transport via “Express Boat”. Unfortunately, due to the expensive fare and unreliable services, these communities are forced to endure isolation and higher expenses in food and transport.

I would ask the Minister responsible for the rural transport to consider subsidize the express boat operator so that a more regular and affordable service can be implemented so that these isolated communities can enjoy the benefits of the progress of the nation. Timbalan Speaker: Member for Pujut you got one minute to conclude.

YB Dr Ting Tiong Choon: Tuan Speaker, a group of car rally enthusiasts and the remote-

controlled flights enthusiasts have been using the old Lutong Airport for many years. As some of us may know, the old Lutong Airport has been alienated to the private entity last

Page 81: PENYATA RASMI PERSIDANGAN DEWAN UNDANGAN NEGERI JULAI 2018... · dewan undangan negeri dewan undangan negeri official reports mesyuarat pertama bagi penggal ketiga first meeting of

BELUM DISUNTING 12 JULAI 2018

71

year, and the usage of Lutong Airport for these leisure activities was disallowed recently. Even though I am not a car rally fan myself, it would be important for the government to source and fund an alternative venue for these sporting activities. I believe Kuala Baram in Senadin would be a suitable location for such activities.

As our society becoming more health conscious and maintaining a good healthy lifestyle is paramount. Pujut has a large residential population but we don't have any single sporting or leisure park that is suitable for the residents to participate in healthy lifestyle such as outdoor exercises or sporting games.

We notice that there is a large parcel of land between Jalan Pujut 3 and Jalan Pujut 4 would be an ideal location for such leisure and sporting centre. The parcel of land is an old RTM site which has not been used for many years. It will be a tremendous project if GPS government can discuss with federal government and together build a world class leisure and sporting centres in Northern Sarawak.

Tuan Speaker, before I complete my speech today, I would like to personally congratulate two Members from this Chamber, namely Honourable Member Kota Sentosa and Honourable Member Ba’Kelalan who has been appointed as Minister and Deputy Minister in the Federal Government. I am confident that both of them will do a good job for Sarawak in the next five years and would ask the Members to be patience, we have waited for 55 years and five years is not too long.

With these I conclude and would like to thank the Tuan Yang Terutama for his address in this Dewan on 9th July 2018. Thank you Timbalan Speaker: Anymore honourable member want to speak? Since we don’t have

anymore members who would like to speak, Ahli-Ahli Yang Berhormat the sitting is now adjourned to tomorrow morning at 9.00 am.
