Reject GPS, peninsular based candidates, PBDSB tells Sarawakians
KUCHING: Parti Bansa Dayak
Sarawak Baru ( PBDSB) has called on Sarawakians to reject Peninsular
Malaysia- based coalition parties and Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) as
both are opportunists in leveraging over Sarawak’s rights as a
platform for their political interests.
Its information
chief Bobby William believes that the right choice for Sarawakians is
Sarawak Baru, which will be set up by local Sarawak opposition
parties.He said unlike Pakatan Harapan (PH) and GPS, Sarawak Baru is not only sincere in championing the rights of Sarawakians which are embodied in Malaysia Agreement 1963 ( MA63) but also the exclusive rights of Sarawak people over their land.
Providing
an example, Bobby said the statements on oil and gas royalties
over the past months by both PH and GPS had been quite a “push and pull”
predicament.
Providing an example,
Bobby said the statements on oil and gas royalties over the past
months by both PH and GPS had been quite a “push and pull” predicament.
He
claimed that Sarawak PH leaders had made the same mistake as Barisan
Nasional (BN) lawmakers from Sarawak in the past by agreeing to the
Petroleum Development Act 1974 ( PDA74), making it as though
Sarawak’s oil and gas and also sales tax belong to the federal
government entirely, which is clearly not at all.
He alleged
that Sarawak PH was willing to compromise Sarawak’s rights by
offering their so- called ‘new deal’”, that comes with terms and
conditions, while the state government’s action to empower the Oil
Mining Ordinance (OMO) 1954 from July 1, 2018 was late in coming.
He said the failure of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg to resolve the issue also had a bad impact on Sarawak.
Bobby pointed out that based on the above, both PH and GPS were not a good and transparent government, saying their political orchestra was only based on their political game to obscure the people’s eyes and subsequently take advantage of Sarawak’s natural resources. “Let’s look at the facts as Sarawakians. Are we requesting for an increase in oil and gas royalties or the ‘whole enchilada’ of Sarawak’s autonomous rights in the Malaysia Agreement 1963 ( MA63)?

“If
we want MA63 to be honoured and respected as how it was agreed prior
to the formation of Malaysia, shouldn’t we just focus on such
objectives instead of being influenced by other means which could
compromise such focus?” he stressed.
Bobby noted that it is an undeniable fact and also known that the Federation of Malaysia was formed with Sarawak based on equal partnership and not as a subordinate subservient to the federal government or Malaya as a whole.
He said accepting whatever offer which might compromise the full recognition of Sarawak’s autonomous rights shows clearly the weaknesses of Sarawak’s leaders, when they continue to give the impression that they were willing to accept or establish any ‘new deal offer’ at the expense of Sarawak’s autonomous rights

He said Sarawak should not be offered a new deal because the state’s autonomy was instituted as an integral part of MA63 during the formation of the federation.
“In actual fact, Sarawakians expect their state’s leaders to ‘tell off’ the federal (government) to restore the state’s autonomy to its original state, as how it was when the federation was formed.

“It is not
supposed to be seen as though Sarawak is demanding for something
new, it is something which had been long overdue since Article 150
of the Proclamation of Emergency was lifted in November 2011,” he
said. Bobby believes that what every Sarawakian expects from the
state’s leaders is not to ‘ask for’ for Sarawak’s rights to be
returned but ‘ to tell’ and ‘ demand’ the federal government to give
back Sarawak’s rights as stipulated during the formation of the
federation.
He said after 55 years in the federation, the state’s leaders should have learned more than enough lessons.
He lamented that the bitter pains hidden underneath the smiling faces of Sarawakians for the past 55 years had caused Sarawakians to constantly remind themselves of the experiences they had undergone, for being too complacent, too naive and too accommodative and also willing to be compromised over the years.
“It is best that GPS too should seriously reflect on themselves what they are doing behind the scene and not just leveraging over the MA63 issue for the sake of their political wellbeing and survival because all Sarawakians are watching now and know very well their ways of ‘trick or treat’.”
My comments:
In 2021 Sarawak election, I am for sure to vote for the alternate party or party other than GPS or PH. It is confirmed. I have been waiting for the Sarawak-based party with the heart and mind focus and stand firm on the Sarawak autonomy based on MA63 or secede for good. This party should band up with other local parties with the same aspiration. They should have the same logo to go to be recognised by the symbol to vote. I hope that the leaders have started to make known themselves to the locals where they are going to stand.
The Malayan government have become too dependent on the oil and gas resources of Sarawak to survive. Without our oil and gas supply, they will go upside down and collapse at no time. After 55 years of plundering and exploitation, they think that they still can go on as they wish. In the past, only political thugs who betrayed us as the people in general were naive and ignorant.
Now with the full awareness of Sarawakians, we people should have a strong part to play in fighting for our autonomous rights or secede for good. I believe that we need a really strong government who have the full support from 90% of Sarawkians to drive away the plunderers and expoiters.
We all must learn to protect the autonomous rights of Sarawak at all cost. Yes, we should secede for good if it is so meaningless to continue to stay in this Federation which stands for nothing but plundering and exploiting us. Yes, 90% of Sarawakians ask, "Is there any good reason to stay on in the Federation?"
Yes, we need new leaders in full co-operation to lead Sarawakians to establish ourselves once again as a nation. To remain in the federation or not, it is up to us, we Sarawak people to decide. It is no longer just the leaders who can decide everything for the people like those practices in the past. There were in between leaders colluding with leaders to plunder and exploit Sarawakians at will all for their own interests and official positions.
