All set for Yong-Harris debate

KOTA KINABALU - The stage is all set for the much anticipated debate between two former chief ministers, Datuk Yong Teck Lee and Tan Sri Harris Salleh, today.

Yesterday, Yong went to the Sabah Golf and Country Club (SGCC) here yesterday to check the place for the debate.

Harris’ last minute change of date, time and place and change of organiser and moderator for the debate has not deterred Yong, who will be there since the debate is of public interest.

According to the club’s spokeman, Gary Tan, the management only charges RM10 per head which includes coffee or tea and sandwiches. There are 300 seats available to the public for the debate.

Tan confirmed to Yong that the club is not responsible for the RM50 collection imposed by Harris and had nothing to do with the club or management.

Yong had argued that since the public debate is to raise awareness, it should not be used to raise funds by the organiser and should be free.

The debate issues are on 20 points/Malaysia Agreement, 1976 Oil Agreement, NBT-SAS Shares, Federalisation of Labuan, 1985 Istana power grab, 1986 riots leading to the Karamunsing fire and rampant issuance of ICs.

    datuk yong teck lee said that this a public debate to raise awareness and NOT TO RAISE FUND FOR THE ORGANIZER !....initially the organizer wanted to charge rm50 per entry...but with yong's intervention the charge was waved.... earlier on,i personally received sms from yong's man telling me to ignore the rm50 charge.....yong managed to convince the organizer to do away with the rm 50 per entry....THIS IS A CLEAR INDICATION THAT EVEN IN THE PREPARATIONAL STAGE,... YONG TECK LEE HAS WON !

    1. tarik balik semua IC di Malaysia, kemudian daftarkan dengan MyKad baru yang lebih unik, tahan lama dan sukar ditiru.. confirm pemilik IC projek dapat dikesan dengan mudah..

    1. jika IC khas sabah di keluarkan, rakyat sabah yang berada di semenanjung secara automatik akan berstatus pendatang haram.. saya yakin agensi2 kerajaan, IPT dan sebagainya di negeri2 itu tidak akan mengiktiraf IC sabah bagi mempermudahkan urusan..

    2. dijamin tiada warga asing yang dapat kalau cadangan ni diterima?

    1. boleh selesai jika rakyat sabah sendiri berganding bahu menyelesaikan masalah ini.. sekurang2nya rakyat sabah tidak perlu memberikan PATI ini kemudahan tempat tinggak, pekerjaan dan tidak membeli barangan yang mereka jual.. bila mereka kebulur, mereka sendiri akan balik ke negara asal..

    1. nombor IC hanya boleh digunakan sekali untuk mengundi.. jadi kalau ada lebih dari tiga nombor IC yang sama, bagaimana penipuan boleh dilakukan sedangkan pengundian hanya boleh dilakukan sekali untuk nombor IC yang sama..
