By Kong Hong Ming

Kong – FELDA, another bad deal for Sabah

Federal Land Development Authority (FELDA) should return 306,000 acres of land to the State of Sabah because FELDA had breach its promise and reneged from its obligations to develop the land given to FELDA intended to serve the interest of the people of Sabah.

At the same time, Sabah BN State Government should be held responsible for its failure to protect the interest of the State and its people in the land settlement schemes undertaken by FELDA.

Its Information Chief, Chong Pit Fah, said this in response to the Daily Express front page report on Harris urging the Federal Government not to proceed with the listing of Felda Holdings, especially involving the said Felda land in Lahad Datu.

NOW, WHO IS THE TRAITOR?

Letter from Dr Tan Kee Kwong. Dear Najib, Salam. I read with great interest today papers about your comments. In it you were quoted that those who talk bad about Felda & called it bankrupt are to be regarded as traitors to the Nation. The sad truth is that after you took charge of Felda in 2005, you turned what was a very successful organisation into a financial nightmare. In fact you are the traitor who has stolen the poor peneroka's money.
