en: Eleman asing disebalik Sarawak for Sarawakians
Budak2 yg bawa sepanduk tu terpengaruh dgn propaganda2 yg disebar NGO2 tempatan termasuk parti STAR yg giat dgn agenda2 tersirat mereka.
Istilah "Dum Spiro Spero" adalah dlm bahasa Latin (bahasa kuno diguna di Itali yg pupus) bermaksud "Sedang saya bernyawa,Saya mengharap" (terjemahan saya drp frasa Inggeris "While I breathe ,I hope")
Istilah tersebut diguna sbg "motto" negeri Sarawak semasa zaman penjajahan Inggeris.Boleh dilihat pd logo lencana (crest) bendera Sarawak.
"While I breathe,I hope" agaknya dipinjam golongan "Sarawak for Sarawakians" utk menaikkan semangat perjuangan mereka.Kita tak taulah apakah agenda mereka.Tetapi mungkin ada kaitan dgn perjuangan NGO spt SAPA pimpinan Lina Soo dan STAR dibawah Jefery Kitingan (Sabah).
Jgn kita jadi pak angguk/turut tanpa tau sebalik "perjuangan" seseorg /organisasi.Buka telinga,buka minda.Jgn tersepit dgn pandangan sempit.Org buat kita ikut tanpa tau sebab "why we follow". Sama spt mereka yg "menentang GST tanpa tau apa yg mereka tentang". - See more at: KLIK

PRESS STATEMENT
Rahman Should Listen and Present People's
Views on Sabah Rights to Federal Govt.
Wednesday, 11 June 2014
Kota Kinabalu: “The Kota Belud MP cum
federal Minister of Urban Well-being, Housing
and Local Government, is out of touch with
reality and present undercurrents and does
not understand the people’s views on Sabah
rights. He should listen to the voices of the
people and present their views on Sabah rights
to the federal government as a leader from Sabah” said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, STAR
Sabah Chief in response to the Minister’s intimidating threats for stern action to be taken for protagonists of Sabah rights.
It is wrong for the Minister to threaten and
intimidate patriotic Malaysians from questioning the basis of the formation of Malaysia and its non-compliance and thereby questioning whether there should be a separation of ways if the basis of formation
continues to be breached.
The Minister should listen to the views of the
people as it has been opined that a slight
majority of Sarawakians would opt out of Malaysia given the current circumstances of
discontentment over the treatment of Sabah
and Sarawak by the federal powers.
It is not treasonous or seditious for any Sabahan/Sarawakian or for the matter any
Malaysian to seek and demand the restoration
of the rights, privileges and autonomy of the
Borneo States that were taken away or eroded
since 1963 and citing separation at an ultimate
step if the basis of the formation of Malaysia is not honoured.
The Minister should take a lesson or two in
history from the Chief Minister of Sarawak
that Sabah and Sarawak (with Singapore then)
formed Malaysia in 1963 and they did not join
Malaysia as Malaysia did not exist then. What
was in existence and gained independence
from the British on 31 August 1957 was the Federation of Malaya?
Malaysia was never colonized and never gained any independence and the original
Umno never fought for the independence of
Malaysia. Malaysia never existed before 1963 and Malaysia would not have existed even today without Sabah and Sarawak.
The Minister through his behaviour and
threats appear to be trapped in the mindset
of a feudal Umno/Malayan warlord or as an
unpatriotic Sabahan like the fake Sabahans that are regularly arrested and jailed in the Peninsula.
If the Minister wish to question the patriotism
of genuine Malaysians, the Minister should
look into the problems of illegal immigrants given dubious or fake ICs and question the patriotism of these “2-minute instant Malaysians” with dubiously issued Malaysian ICs.
Many of these fake IC holders and fake Sabahans have been arrested, including those that have committed serious crimes and they will continue to appear all over Malaysia since no action has been taken to eradicate the problem.
“Why is the Minister not calling for these fake Sabahans/Malaysians to be arrested for being security threats to the peace and harmony of Malaysia?”
“Why is the Minister not calling for the powers
that be that were behind the issuance of these dubious and fake ICs to be arrested for
treason” quizzed Dr. Jeffrey.
If the Minister is a true and patriotic Sabahan
and has the heart for the welfare and interests of his fellow Sabahans, he should
listen to the out-pouring of his fellow citizens
in Sabah and Sarawak and then present them as a responsible federal Minister to the federal
government so that action can be taken to solve their discontentment and ensure a peaceful and harmonious Malaysia for another
50 years to come.
If the Minster is a true Sabahan, he should ask himself which is true, “Sabah Maju Jaya Dalam Malaysia” or “Sabah Termiskin Dalam
Malaysia”?.
The Minister should also realize that he was
made a federal Minister because of the kingmakers’ powers wielded by Sabah and Sarawak and championed by the opposition. If not for the kingmakers’ role and the voices of the opposition, the Minister may just be an ordinary, or worse, an opposition Member of Parliament today.
The biggest threat to the security, peace and harmony of the nation and the break-up of Malaysia is from the ruling government leaders like the Minister who refuses to acknowledge the simmering discontent of the people.
If the federal government truly respect and
honour the basis of the formation of Malaysia
and treat Sabah and Sarawak fairly and as equal partners, there is no reason for any person to want Sabah and Sarawak out of Malaysia.

isan Nasional may break up – Pairin Kitingan
Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) president Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan has called on the Barisan Nasional (BN) to ensure that the principle of consensus decision making is rigorously maintained.
If this is not done, Pairin said he feared that it could cause the BN to break up as the consensus principle strengthens and bonds the coalition.
“That is very crucial (and) very important because this consensual decision brings about a feeling of sincerity, respectability and commitment which strengthens and bonds the BN together. Now, if that were to be destroyed, then it is not going to be the same and will lead to the break-up of BN because it will allow a free-for-all situation,” he stressed when met at the PBS Inanam annual general meeting yesterday.

PRESS STATEMENT
Najib on Sarawak's Oil Stand Shames Sabah
BN Leaders
Tuesday, June 3rd;, 2014
Kota Kinabalu: “The impromptu response by
PM Najib that the federal government will give
utmost consideration to Sarawak’s request for
higher oil and gas royalties certainly has
shamed the Sabah Government and BN
leaders and put them in a bad light” said
Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, Sabah STAR Chief, in
responding to PM Najib’s reply to CM Adenan’s
speech on Sarawak seeking higher royalties.
While CM Adenan’s speech may not be off the
cuff given that the Sarawak legislative assembly had adopted the motion unanimously to seek higher oil royalties, it was
nonetheless very significant and important that Adenan had taken the occasion of Najib’s
presence at the Malaysia Gawai Dayak Open House in Miri to make the request.
Adenan’s request certainly has no parallel in
Sabah where the Sabah government and its
BN leaders have been muted in their stand on
higher oil royalties.
Sabah Umno leaders were no were to be seen
or heard on Sabah’s oil and gas rights. Some
of the other component parties had to resort
to getting their youth wings to make a stand
while their senior leaders were dumbfounded
by the common people’s stand that Sabah
should be given higher royalties if not taking
back the full ownership rights.
At the legislative assembly level, it was a no-
contest between Sabah and Sarawak.
The Sarawak lawmakers had made an
unequivocal and clear-cut 71-0 demand for
higher royalties. On the Sabah front, a motion
to debate on Sabah’s oil rights and royalties
were flatly rejected and added with an
emotional charade by the CM.
“With this latest development and assurance
by the PM, the Sabah government and its
leaders should re-assess their position and
make a positive stand and at least demand for
higher royalties if not for return of the oil
ownership rights as well as shares in Petronas”
suggested Dr. Jeffrey.
“After all, they have been boasting of and
harping on the good and cordial relationship
with the federal government” added Dr. Jeffrey.
These Sabah leaders should shed their vested
interests and look after Sabah’s and Sabahans’
rights, interest and welfare. They should not
take Sabahans for granted any longer.
They should demand for Sabah’s oil rights for
the benefit of all Sabahans, including those
yet-born even if it means losing their high
positions. By not doing so, it can only mean
that the good relations do not exist except in their imagination.
The Chief Minister and the Sabah government
should start representing then people of
Sabah as true elected representatives. As the
Chief Minister, Datuk Seri Musa Aman should
give priority to the interests of Sabah and not
the interests of Umno. He should not be
trapped in the mindset as a Umno
representative but rather as the leader of all
Sabahans and looking after the larger interests
of all Sabahans, not Umno’s interests.
Perhaps, the Chief Minister of Sabah can go
one up on his counterpart in Sarawak by
seeking for shares in Petronas for Sabah and
all the oil-producing States. It is not wrong for
the Chief Minister and the Sabah government
to demand for ownership of Petronas.
“How wonderful it would be for Sabah if all
Sabah BN leaders, at all levels, were to make
a similar stand to ask for higher oil royalties
and shares in Petronas and show that they are
also true patriots of Sabah and not meek
leaders and stooges of Kuala Lumpur” wished
Dr. Jeffrey.

PRESS STATEMENT
“Follow Sarawak's UCTS Initiative – Dr. Jeffrey”
Kota Kinabalu: “The Sabah Government need to
sit up and take pro-active action to set up its own
Sabah State University following Sarawak
Government’s initiative in setting up the
University College of Technology Sarawak (UCTS)”
said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, STAR Sabah Chief,
commenting on Sarawak’s additional RM64 million
infrastructure allocation to set up an IT library,
indoor stadium and science and technology park
in UCTS campus in Sibu.
The Sarawak government needs to be
commended for taking the bull by its horns and
stepping up by establishing its own tertiary
institution and not waiting for the federal
government to return the education portfolio to
State control.
The UCTS comes after Sarawak’s own technical
institutes to better prepare young Sarawakians
with better vocational and technical skills. It’s the
implementation of the philosophy of teaching one
how to fish rather than giving a fish.
There is no higher price and no greater sacrifice
that ensuring that young Malaysians receive the
best education possible.
Education equips them
with a lifelong knowledge.
But, what is more important is that the Sarawak
government is taking charge of educational
institutions free from interference by the federal
government and Malay and Malayan-centric
policies.
At the same time, the Sarawak government can
ensure that Sarawakians especially their natives
are not deprived of educational scholarships and
opportunities that are denied them by the federal
“1-melayu” policies that should have no place in
the Borneo States where local natives should be
given priority.
Despite wanton lies by Ministers and the federal
government that the Malaysian education system
is one of the best in the world, the failures of the
system are evident everywhere.
Malaysian
students are faring worse than many third world
countries judging from recent PISA results where
Malaysia was ranked No. 52 out of the 65
countries polled.
As highlighted by the recently released World
Bank Report on education in Malaysia, the over-
emphasis and centralized control of education
had resulted in a decline in education standards
caused by bottlenecks and bureaucracy.
To arrest the falling standards and the decadence
of education in Sabah and Sarawak, the Sabah
and Sarawak governments need to take back
education under their wings before it is too late.
There is also a need to localize due to differences
and unsuitability of curriculum due to local
circumstances. For instance, bajau, kadazandusun
and many local mother tongues are spoken in
Sabah but not in the Peninsula.
Judging from the Sarawak government’s initiatives,
the Sabah government and their leaders have
much to learn from their counterparts in Sarawak.
Perhaps, the Sabah government leaders should
attend refresher courses in Sarawak to better
administer Sabah.
The education of the young Sabahans are too
important and the Sabah government should not
allow education should not be used as a political
tool by the federal government nor manipulated
or used to deprive deserving Sabahans from
proper educational opportunities.
The Sabah government need to adopt a holistic
approach to safeguard the young in Sabah do not
fall victims to a declining education system in
Malaysia. For a start, the Sabah government can
takeover some of the existing polytechnics and
universities as well as to upgrade the Timbang
Menggaris Agriculture Institute to be the Sabah
Agro-forestry University and produce skilled agro-
entrepreneurs and skilled graduates.
