Oil producing offshore area, Block M and Block L belonging to Sabah near Brunei in the South China Sea is no longer a part of Sabah. It now belongs to Brunei. This Block M and Block L is close to 6000 square kilometers in size, which is like 10 times the size of Singapore. Both the blocks can produce 1 billion barrels of oil or US$100 billion in revenue and it belongs to Sabah.
Chief Minister from Sabah, Musa Aman together with former Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi negotiated with the Sultan of Brunei to get back Limbang for Sarawak, in exchange they agreed to surrender this Block M and Block L belonging to Sabah. Can you believe this? Yes, Musa Aman with Badawi, on March 17th, 2009 in Brunei, had signed away US100 billion dollars of oil to the Sultan of Brunei.
Moreover, this was not brought up at all by Musa Aman to the Sabah State Legislative Assembly. More importantly by giving up the Blocks L and M, both Musa Aman and Pak Lah were altering the boundaries to Sabah, and the Constitution under Clause 2 (b) provides that this will require the consent of the state and as well as the Conference of Rulers.
To give away or demarcate boundaries of Borneo States, Badawi must first consult Parliament, and then under the Federation Agreement with Sabah, Badawi must ask Musa Aman to convene an emergency sitting of the Sabah State Legislative Assembly and then take a vote in the State Assembly. Musa Aman did not just do that. Musa Aman concealed this whole thing, Brunei, Block M and Block L from Sabahans. This Musa Aman, did not bring this matter to the State Assembly at all and why was he hiding this from Sabahans? Musa Aman owes Sabahans and explanation.
Besides, only if Sabah had cleared this matter in the assembly, then only, can this be brought to the Agong for a royal consent to the demarcation of the new boundaries. The Conference of Rulers MUST also agree and that too has to come BEFORE the signing of the Agreement with Brunei. However, they did not.
Then why were Pak Lah and Musa Aman in a hurry to sign the Agreement with the Sultan? Why the rush? Pak Lah says he has the approval from his Cabinet and so everything is in order. However, is this true? Was the process done constitutionally, as per the Federation Agreement?
To me this is like TREASON! Musa Aman should be charged for Treason for concealing, hiding or aiding the crime of TREASON. Musa Aman concealed this action from the Sabah State Assembly, and for any public servant To conceal, hide, or aid the crime of TREASON is to be guilty of the same offence.
The facts are:
1. Malaysia, Sabah no longer has any sovereignty over the 2 areas i.e Block L and Block M.
2. Malaysian oil companies can only participate in jointly developing the areas for 40 years (with Brunei’s permission).
3. Limbang remains a disputed area with Brunei.
I stand by my opinion that Musa Aman and Abdullah Badawi should be tried for Treachery and TREASON for losing territory belonging to Sabah, Malaysia.
Then if the KL boys were to say that the Blocks L & M are not within the Sabah State waters and therefore under the purview of the Federal Government, then I will say, why this not brought to Parliament, and not brought to The Agong, and then to the Conference of Rulers, as we are after all altering the boundaries of the federation? Is it because it comes under the Federal Territory of LABUAN?
The UMNO/ BN once again had violated the Malaysia Agreement 1963 after we lost Labuan and, Pairin, Dompok, Kurup and Chong Kah Kiat including the other Sabahan ministers in BN component did not dare to voice up and do whatsoever to stop these violations. It is absolutely disgraceful. What else is missing after this? Are we simply going to forgive and forget for this wrongdoing by UMNO and the BN component? ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Bikin malu saja rakyat sabah, semua suruh malaya atur, orang sabah tidak mampukah?
ReplyDeleteBLOCKS L & M IN EXCHANGE FOR LIMBANG!
DeleteHi Jo
The reason for giving away those valuable "blocks" was that Brunei agreed not to claim Limbang. Very obvious reason.
But what can we do. These bastards gave away our Sabah collective wealth but they are in power and cannot be touched.
Pah lah is dosing it away happily somewhere in Malaya oblivious to what is happening nowadays. Does he care?
There is just one solution to this horrible situation we are in.
It is not fighting for more autonomy but for independence so we can take back our country.
If we let the Malayan colonialists continue using Sabah and also Sarawak as development banks with limited funds and resources to finance Malaya development and enrich UMNO cronies,. not much will be left in another 25 years not say 50 years!
WE LOST NOT JUST THE OILFIELDS, LABUAN BUT OUR RIGHT TO ENJOY REAL INDEPENDENCE!
Mind you, why have to relate the Block and M again?
DeleteBLOCK L & M REPRESENT WEALTH & INCOME WHICH SHOULD BELONG TO SABAH NOT FOR MALAYAN TO TRADE AWAY
DeleteOkay wealth so how about it now?
DeleteKenapa lepaskan tempat yang berharga dari Malaysia. harus memperjuangkan dan dimiliki.
DeletePerkara sudah terjadi. Mahu marah2, complaint apa lagi? Keadaan tidak dapat diubah.
DeleteApa yang sudah berlalu, buat apa nak mempertikaikannya lagi?

DeleteTapi kalau marah orang depan pc pun apa guna juga?
DeleteHahaha! Setuju Anonymous July 25, 2012 1:29 PM. Jadi arm chair critic saja apa barang?? Macam tin kosong yang bising.
DeleteYang paling x guna itu adalah mengkritik depan komputer tapi bila PRU x keluar mengundi.
DeleteBukan bah...banyak pemimpin kalo sudah dipilih dia sibuk lain hal lain tampat.
ReplyDeleteMacam tu Sotong orang KK mau jumpa dia diPorum dia pulak pigi lain kerja.
Adakah dia sibuk presidon persatuan atau DCM kita urang Sabah?
Dan tu MP KK Dr.King lagi hebat sampai tdak bulih kasi urang KK masa tapi ada masa escort boss melawat lain tempat.
Macam sudah lupa kita yang pilih dia jadi apa?
Rakyat dilepaskan atau didahulukan kah?
Patui semua danatng Sabah hanya cari makan seafood saja!
Oh ya ka? Jadi ko salah satu daripada cari seafood la ni kan?
DeletePembangkang memang pandai memancing perhatian dan undi rakyat. Isu yang sudah berkubur pun dikorek balik.
ReplyDeletemmg pembangkang suka mengungkit isu lama.. isu ini telahpun selesai, kenapa perlu dibangkitkan lagi.
DeleteSeingat saya isu ni sudahpun selesai.
Deletesapp mau jadi hero bah ini. diorang tahu kritik saja, tapi tidak pun ada buat apa-apa.
DeleteI don't think the oppositions would love to say something nice about the government. In fact they are eating our money too.
DeleteBetul tu!Pembangkang ni tak pandai bersyukur la. Dah la kerajaan bagi peruntukan, taktau nak menghargai pula.
DeleteBetullah dah lama pun nak membawa keluar untuk mencari pasal.
Deletekebanyakan penyokong BN disini memang bod**..!!
Deleteadakah anda tahu kehilangan blok L&M bukan saja merugikan Sabah dari segi hasil minyak dan gasnya tapi juga rugi dari segi hasil lautnya..??
kehilangan kawasaN yang begitu luas tanpa ada sedikitpun gantinya yang memberikan kebaikannya kepada Sabah teramatlah menyedihkan..
ADAKAH ANDA MASIH TIDAK SEDAR ITU??!!
gembirakah kamu kita kehilangan kawasan yang begitu luas untuk membantu Sarawak mendapatkan tanahnya..jika dilihat dari sudut kebertanggungjawaban, Sarawaklah yang sepatutnya perlu mengorbankan sedikit kawasan lautnya untuk digantikan dengan kawasan yang perlu untuk dipertahankan..??
Sabah sepatutnya perlu menjauhkan diri dari terlibat dalam isu tukar-ganti kawasan dan hanya perlu memberikan sokongan moral kepada Sarawak..
SARAWAK UNTUNG SABAH RUGI MALAYA KETAWA
SIAPA BODOH??!!
BODOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KITALAH!!!!
Kau pun bodoh juga la wahai gaman. Kau pun tinggal di Sabah juga kan? Apasal nak kecoh pasal Block L and M? Kan sudah selesai perkara tu?
DeleteNo new issue, just brought up old matter to attract attention.
DeleteItu juga ada pihak yang sanggup mengambil perhatian. Kes ini benar tidak adil untuk orang Sabahan.
DeleteIsu ini sudah sselesai..pembangkang mau korek balik cerita lama buat apa... buang masa sahaja.
DeletePembangkang kehabisan isu sudah.
DeleteMahu marah2 pun apa guna? Bukan boleh dapat balik tu Blok L & M. Move on la. Siapa juga yang dapat rasa tu keuntungan? Kalau masih ada tu Blok L & M pun, ingat kita dapat rasa sangat keuntungannya?
DeleteSudah dekat PRU-13, berabis mereka mencari isu-isu lama untuk dipolitikkan.
DeleteItu lah pembangkang, hilang idea sudah...perkara yang sudah selesai cuba di panaskan kembali.
DeleteKeburukan memang gemar dihebohkan tapi kebaikan hanya disembunyikan...
ReplyDeletebiasalah.. orang lebih suka melihat keburukan berbanding kebaikan seseorang.
DeleteThe oppositions love to oppose so what we can do is to watch them die.
Deletenama pun pembangkang, setiap yang dibuat pasti mereka akan bangkang.
DeleteAh ha! The oppositions are making headlines for their stories. I bet they are gaining more publicity afterwards.
DeleteI'm not surprised at all. The oppositions are getting furious.
DeleteI think the leading and opposition has not much different, all make use and play with topics.
DeleteMau jadi hero begitu lahh, bangkit isu lama agar rakyat sokong mereka.
DeleteApa sahaja kerajaan buat, baik kh buruk kh, pembangkang akan sentiasa pertikaikan. Harap rakyat jangan mudah terpengaruh.
Deleteisu ini dah lama, nak dibangkitkan lagi..
ReplyDeleteIsu block L dan M memang ingin untuk menutup kesalahan pembangkang. Tujuan memang tidak lain untuk mengaburi mata kita semua.
DeleteThey have lost words to say. Condemning everyday, I bet they are just plain boring.
DeleteKalau pembangkang tak buat macam ni peluang untuk menjatuhkan umnobn memang langsung takda. hehehhee... Berabis pembangkang korek kisah silam.
DeletePembangkang memang sukakan pembangkang jadi tak hairanlah jika isu2 yang dibangkitkan adalah bersifat provokatif.
DeleteSAPP suka sangat memainkan isu lama untuk kepentingan politik mereka.
ReplyDeleteBukan SAPP saja, DAP PKR sama PAS juga. Suka main crita lama2 untuk membuat kita mengantuk.
Deletesapp ni memang selalu mainkan sesuatu isu, tapi jarang betul dengar diorang bagi idea.
DeleteSerahkan kepada rakyat sendiri untuk menentukannya.
DeletePembangkang hanya tau mengkritik sahaja, namun cuba suruh mereka buat, hilang arah terus tu. Lebih baik jangan banyak bunyi.
DeleteSAPP siok sendiri saja. PRU13 confirm hilang deposit lagi.
DeleteJoseph Lakai mahu ganti Yong teck Lee kah? ngam juga sebab YTL sudah tidak boleh pakai...buruk sudah...
ReplyDeleteI never heard of this man before. Nah I dont think YTL will let him rule the party.
DeleteApa pun orang ni pendatang baru. Kemukakan isu yang lama dan sudah selesai.
Deleteyang sudah hilang, apa boleh buat...yang ada jagalah bagus2...
ReplyDeleteMalaysia masih ada beberapa buah negeri pengeluar minyak. tidak perlu bertelingkah dengan isu blok L dan M.
DeleteTapi nak kaitkan perkara yang tidak penting memang satu perkara yang membuang masa.
DeleteJangan asyik cakap benda lepas hingga hilang arah dalam mengejar bright future.
DeleteMenghala ke depan, banyak isu dan perkara memerlukan perhatian yang wajar.
DeleteBanyak lagi isu lain yang perlu di selesaikan oleh kerajaan, bukan isu basi ini.
Deletekalau tidak silap isu ini sudah dijelaskan dan diselesaikan dulu..tiba-tiba pula diungkit balik.
ReplyDeleteWhat to do? SAPP is saying something that is happened so long ago and still dreaming about that.
DeleteTidak ada sudah topik untuk diperkatakan jadi terpaksalah guna bahan lama. hihi
Delete"Yes, Musa Aman with Badawi, on March 17th, 2009 in Brunei, had signed away US100 billion dollars of oil to the Sultan of Brunei." - Can you post it up on the internet the evidences on this? And more detailed on Block L & M on maps and any other evidences. Thanks.
ReplyDeletethis is so unnecessary.
DeleteThis is an important issue that must be raise to highlight why Sabah is the poorest state today ?
DeleteThe evidences have been so clear posted. Not enough?
Deletesapp mau gunakan isu ini untuk dapat sokongan. baru sekarang sapp mau cakap pasal isu ini.
ReplyDeleteSAPP is so SAPP. YTL should stop harping some old issues to seek for votes.
DeleteKenapa tiba-tiba terkeluar berita ini? apa nak buat lagi?
ReplyDeleteCara lama pembangkang yang tak tahu malu.
DeleteSemua isu pun pembangkang akan bangkit, longkang depan rumah durang tersumbat pun jadi isu besar kasih salah kerajaan juga tu.
DeleteJadi kalau hal ini makin diperkatakan sampai bilah lah mahu selesai?
ReplyDeleteSukar nak ramal apa yang akan berlaku seterusnya jadi kita ready sajalah dengan keputusan PRU13 nanti.
ReplyDeleteBaik pandang ke masa depan dan bukan mempertikaikan masa lampau.
DeleteLagi??? Macam trend zaman sekarang pula kan suka gali 'kubur'. hehehe
ReplyDeleteGali Kubur adalah aktiviti kesukaan SAPP.
DeleteMacam mustahil juga hal seperti ini dibuat jika ia tidak mendatangkan kebaikan pada rakyat kan... Takkan lah para pemimpin nak menjahanamkan kehidupan rakyat pula.
ReplyDeleteKalaupun ia dilakukan, rasanya pasti ada alasan munasabah di sebalik semua ini.
ReplyDeleteTopik ini sudahpun ditutup, kesudahan cerita ini adalah Brunei adalah pemilik Sabah dua blok minyak ini. Berapa kali mereka cuba membangkit isu ini kesuahan cerita pun tidak akan berubah.
DeleteInilah yang menyebabkan saya lebih suka jadi rakyat dan mainkan peranan sebagai rakyat biasa saja. Daripada jadi pemimpin, semualah bendak tak baik keluar.
ReplyDeletePihak pembangkang memang suka menumpukan perhatian pada kelemahan UMNO-BN demi mendapatkan sokongan rakyat. Padahal pembangkang pun bukannya sempurna sangat.
DeleteDaripada asyik mengungkit, bagus lagi kalau fikir mcm mana nak pastikan masa depan terus bertambah cerah kan. hehe
ReplyDeleteApa yang sudah berlepas, kita biarkan ia berlepas. Balik-balik membangkitkan isu tersebut pun tidak boleh mengubah realiti bahawa Block L dan M sudah menjadi milik Brunei.
DeleteIni juga salah satu unsur Sabah menjadi miskin?
DeleteBangkit perkara yang sudah selesai boleh buat gaudh besar sahaja, cukup-cukup lah menpengaruhi rakyat jadi jahat.
Deletetiba-tiba pula isu lama dibangkitkan. lebih baik jika semua fokus ke hadapan untuk jadikan Sabah lebih maju.
ReplyDeleteSetuju. Kalau tak sampai bila-bila pun kita takkan maju kerana asyik ungkit masa lampau saja.
DeleteMacam mana Sabah boleh maju jika hak milik rakyat Sabah dijual tanpa pengetahuan and kebenaran rakyat Sabah ?
DeleteLike a broken record, repeating the same old issues over and over. SAPP really likes this sort of tactics.
DeleteKesilapan ini tidak harus diulangi. Anggaplah ini pengajaran untuk semua pihak.
DeleteBijak betul pembangkang nak timbulkan ketengangan kan. Mentang2 lah ada ura2 PRU lepas Hari Raya, banyaklah pula isu yang timbul. hihi
ReplyDeleteKerajaan Pusat masih belum mengumumkan bahawa PRU-13 akan diadakan selepas Hari Raya. Sampai sekarang parliamen masih belum dibubarkan.
DeleteBerusaha betul SAPP nak timbulkan isu panas bagi 'menembak' umnobn. hehehhee
ReplyDeleteSAPP selalu membangkitkan isu yang sama untuk mendapatkan perhatian.
DeleteTetapi isu ini betul perlu diambil perhatian juga.
DeleteKita lihat sajalah apa yang akan berlaku kelak. Arus politik memang cukup penuh dengan ketegangan dan jika gagal dinilai secara matang pasti akan menimbulkan masalah yang lain.
ReplyDeleteApa yang sudah berlepas, buat apa nak mempertikaikan lagi? Block L dan M sudah menjadi milik Brunei, tidak mungkin kita boleh mendapatkan ia semula.
ReplyDeleteMemang pelbagai perkara akan keluar bila dah menghampiri PRU-13.
ReplyDeletesaya bukan penyokong SAPP tapi kehilangan yang begitu merugikan Sabah ini tidak boleh lagi dimaafkan..
ReplyDeleteBukan kes pasal L dan M ini sudah selesaika? kenapa perlu ditimbulkan lagi?
ReplyDeleteBanyak lagi isu baru yang memerlukan penyelesaian, kenapa perlu mengungkit kes yang sudah selesai?
ReplyDeleteJoseph Lakai, you certainly do not have good geographical understanding of boundary issues, measurement such as EEZ and the rules of maritime. The seashore belongs to Brunei definitely within its 200 nautical miles EEZ as stated under the United Nations treaty. Even if you take into consideration an Island measurement, in this case Labuan, twice its size extended to the sea would not cover both blocks L and M as it is known in Malaysia or J and K as it is in Brunei. Whilst from Sabah, the measurement is useless, from the longest tip of Sipitang to the sea will be totally inapplicable. It's a sideway Joseph not a straight line.
ReplyDeleteAnd importantly you failed to expose any evident of the agreement. There are no black and white materials to support your argument. This is not Politics Joseph but logic.
The govt will not simply gave away Block L and M if there were no concrete reasons.
DeleteThis article is merely to confuse the people and want to tarnish the image of govt.
DeleteYes Bro you are right, this is a territorial dispute and resource conflict over an area not within a Malaysian jurisdiction. To initiate a claim would be a lengthy procedure both historically and geographically. Block L and M are just less than 30 miles nautical from Muara Beach in Brunei. A strong swimmer could make it in less than an hour to reach. Not to mention digging into traditional dispute over territorial claim historically. In any means, there are still contracts existed in hard binding paper copies that show Labuan, Limbang, Miri and even Sibu as being rented to the colonizers, the Broke Families in Sarawak and the North Borneo Company for Sabah.
ReplyDeleteIt is not a question of an eye for an eye exchange. Malaysia benefits from the agreement totally with 40 years of oil and gas exploration in an area that clearly belongs to Brunei. Imagine that you are a thief entering someone's house but instead of returning that person's belongings you are demanding to have a joint share of the properties.
Petronas has been drilling Brunei's oil and gas illegally not only in Block L and M which are awarded to Murphy Oil in a PSC basis by Petronas which nearly sparks regional conflict - a war in this case or more clearly an attempt by Petronas to drill an oil reserve in the boundary of Sarawak and Brunei specifically situated in an area between Miri (Sarawak) and Belait (Brunei) encroaching into the land that belongs to Brunei.
This is not a land exchange programme. Brunei never wants Limbang back as it is not beneficial to acquire an area without any lucrative resources and Block L and M are not within Sabah's EEZ. Brunei has lost not one area but lots of them in the past therefore it should not loss an inch more to this conflict.
Malaysia is lucky that Brunei could compromise on this situation rather than pursuing the matter to the International Court of Justice (ICJ). Peaceful resolution proves fruitful Mr Joseph. Remember A WAR is not always an answer to a CONFLICT Mr Joseph. Put aside a politic, Think cognitively Mr Joseph, we are grown up.
Good explanation. At least someone made his research rather than simply spread a story to confuse the readers.
DeleteYa, harap hubungan antara Sabah dan Brunei dapat dikekalkan.
DeleteMungkin Pembangkang sengaja menimbulkan isu ini semuala untuk menjejaskan hubungan baik Sabah dengan Brunei.
Delete......FAHAAAAAM......!!!!!
ReplyDelete"peace not war" okay....!!!!
Hak milik rakyat Sabah tidak harus dijual beli untuk mendapatkan keuntungan yang tidak memanfaatkan rakyat.
ReplyDeleteOil producing offshore area, Block M and Block L belonging to Sabah near Brunei in the South China Sea is no longer a part of Sabah. I
ReplyDeleteThis is the greatest mistake that our government ever made.
The govt is not that naive to make loss than profits.
DeleteThe reality is that Block M and L is no longer belong to Sabah, end of story. What more can be done about that?
DeleteStop focusing on what we cannot change, we should instead look towards the future, to ensure similar case will not repeat.
DeleteKenapa kerajaan sanggup melepaskan sumber yang boleh menjana pendapatan yang berterusan.
ReplyDeleteSetiap perkara pasti ada sebabnya. kalaupun ini satu kesilapan, apa yang boleh kita lakukan ialah pastikan ia tidak berulang lagi.
DeleteCan't do much for the past mistake, go ahead and more matter to handle.
ReplyDeleteApa yang sudah berlalu, biarkan ia berlalu.
DeleteBetul, perkara sudah berlalu, sudah tiba masanya untuk maju ke hadapan.
DeleteSetuju, banyak lagi isu yang perlu diberikan perhatian selepas ini, buat apa mempertikaikan apa yang sudahpun berlalu.
DeleteMungkin ini taktik SAPP untuk menjatuhkan BN.
ReplyDeleteMemang banyak taktik kotor dari SAPP, mereka sudah lama menggunakan strategi seperti ini.
DeleteMenjual harta negara seandai mengkhianat negara juga.
ReplyDeletebagi minyak hilang tanah, dapat tanah hilang minyak.. vice versa kalau bawa isu ke icc malaysia tetap kalah.. why? Brunei have the original agreement pasal Limbang which mean including its maritime zone... kalau memang benar lautan itu milik malaysia jum ke limbang apa isu... nelayan tidak dapat ke Laut sebab milik brunei selama ini that why they called it Brunei Bay.. get it? mahu tahu apa itu penghkianat? cuba tengok kaum apa paling banyak pindah ke negara lain? bawa hasil untung dari negara ini keluar?
ReplyDeleteBukankah ini isu sudah berlaku? Adakah ini isu dikitar semula oleh pihak yang tidak bertanggungjawab.
ReplyDeleteRasanya, ia sengaja ditimbulkan untuk menambahkan ketegangan senario politik hari ini.
DeleteBaik jangan balik-balik timbulkan perkara yang sama, nanti hubungan antara Sabah dengan Brunei semakin terjejas.
Deleteinilah yang dikatakan kumpulan yang tidak berpuas hati (bukan hanya pembangkang....LOL)
ReplyDeleteMahu ulang tayang pun tak boleh sudah. Jadikan saja hal ini satu pengajaran dan bagi memastikan kesilapan sebegini tidak berulang lagi.
ReplyDeleteIsu ini macam sengaja ditimbulkan. Mentang-mentanglah bahang PRU13 kian terasa. adiihh..
ReplyDeleteKepada yang boleh mengundi sudah tu, pastikan sampai masanya nanti pangkah kotak yang patut. Jangan salah undi pula.
ReplyDeleteSebagai rakyat Malaysia yang setia kepada negara, haruslah pasrah dengan setiap inci tanah air yang diserahkan kepada jiran-jiran. Tiada siapa yang perlu kisah, dan biarkanlah ia berlalu..
ReplyDeleteThis is out only to attract the people.
ReplyDeleteClearly no case or issue about this.
ReplyDeleteI can feel rage of the oppositions.
ReplyDeleteWe better look ahead and plan for the future.
ReplyDeletePlan to avoid making similar mistakes later times.
DeleteThe people always come first...to be the people's choice.
ReplyDeleteI thought this issue has been forgotten long time?
ReplyDeleteWe should respect the government and our leaders.
ReplyDeleteThe oppositions certainly do not have anything to say.
ReplyDeleteThere are some reasons the oppositions do refer to old issues.
ReplyDeleteSomething has to be done for the people.
ReplyDeleteThere are some things we need to consider.
DeleteCould it be the oppositions had run out of issues to discuss?
ReplyDeleteMaybe for the fact that election is around the corner.
DeleteI sensed lost of words to ponder.
DeleteThere is need to look further and plan ahead.
ReplyDeleteGoing back to the past isn't a back idea afterall but should determine on how to avoid such mistakes in the future.
ReplyDeleteI think it is up to the people now...
ReplyDeleteWe all need to decide wisely this time around.
DeleteThis issue needs the attention of the government.
ReplyDeleteKalau memang berniat mahu tumbangkan kerajaan, cerita lama pun akan dikorek balik. Cerita Anwar dengan China Doll apa macam
ReplyDeleteSemua isu sengaja diputar semula untuk menarik perhatian rakyat dan memancing undi. Rakyat jangan mudah terpedaya dengan janji2 pembangkang.
ReplyDeleteThis is just one of many of rumours and going around to undermined all good efforts that has been carried out by the government for the betterment of Sabah. But what is important is that we are confident that BN's position is not under threat. BN is able to face this sort of challenge and will be taking appropriate steps to remedy the situation and strengthen BN's position.

ReplyDeleteMusa said leaders should place party interests above their own personal interest instead of "chasing after power and positions. He said that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had never interfered in Sabah's internal affairs, but had only pandered to the state's concerns when he appointed locals in Sabah to fill positions his administration.
ReplyDeleteMusa also asserted that the State Government is actually determines the direction of the state through the federal or state Cabinets. Musa also noted that it is fortunate that Sabah have a leader who understands the people's needs and look into their welfare.
ReplyDeleteThe Chief Minister expounded on BN's successes, saying it was through the ruling pact that the resource-rich Sabah attraction a total of RM10 billion in private investments last year. He said that Sabahans had benefitted directly from this. Returns from these investments has also improved our state infrastructure.It is different now than it was 10 or 20 years ago.
Sabah Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan expressed his confidence in Prime Minister Datuk Najib Razak’s leadership through the Government Transformation Programme, which emphasised the people’s needs especially those living in remote areas, as it showed an understanding for the people of Sabah.
ReplyDeleteAs a young and energetic leader, Najib has brought about changes and progress in a short time to all areas regardless of its location. These efforts ought to be suppoerted as transformation programmes will bring benefits, development and improve the lives of people in the state
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeletePairin, who is also state infrastructure development minister, said a good relationship between the federal and state governments was also positive for Sabah residents. So there is no reason for us not to support a leader who brings changes and focuses on the welfare of the people.
The BN government’s socio-economic uplifting effort has resulted in the prevailing peace and prosperity of the country.The fruits of development came about as a result of strong unity among Malaysians of diverse background. “This is the building block of prosperity, wellbeing and socio-economic progress that will safeguard our nation's sovereignty

ReplyDeleteSabahans' support for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has not diminished despite the recent defection of two Barisan Nasional (BN) members of Par liament to Pakatan Rakyat, said State Umno deputy liaison chief Datuk Seri Salleh Said Keruak. He expressed confidence that the majority would continue supporting Najib's leadership in leading the nation to greater heights.
Najib's transformation programmes have really benefited the people. I think Sabahans will not back politicians who are only pursuing their personal political dreams. Sabahans want to continue enjoying stability and progress, and they trust the Prime Minister's leadership.
ReplyDeleteSalleh said BN's strength in Sabah remained intact under the leadership of Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman and the departure of Lajim and Bumburing would not affect the overall power of the party in the state. The government at federal and state levels would continue undertaking efforts to enhance the country’s dignity and strength in facing the various challenges. Salleh concluded by advising the public not to be easily swayed by the opposition's ploys to capitalise on the issue to garner votes in the upcoming general election
