目前，我不知道Petros 有多少红桶已经在市场流动。我也不知道向谁询问？砂立法议员好像也没有头绪。
无论如何，我相信煤气管衔接砂每个家庭在未来7-8年期间会完成。
现在，大家还是买几个电磁炉来应付需求。
我本身没有用煤气大概有十年了吧！我觉得电磁炉更适合我。
用煤气炉或电磁炉是习惯的问题。
有人说用电磁炉会增加电费。我不知道会增加多少电费跟煤气对比之下？到目前为止，没有数据为准，谁也讲不准。
记得，不要囤煤气桶，因为有一天，你要卖出去，就要亏本卖，信不信由你。

三选一
三选一求突破
Muda选择不参与国盟巡演绝对是正确的决定。 是的，Muda 应该继续扮演第三势力角色才有未来。
国盟组装回教化，自我为中心，根本没有顾虑非回教徒，沙砂人感受，切！
希盟标榜公正和改革，根本没有多少决心和毅力修正和改善体制。
权力到手后，还是跟着跟巫统国阵的模型模式运作。
要突破2选1这僵局, 咱们人民必须有3选1的机会。所以，对马来亚人来讲，Muda 才是最最佳选择。
参考台湾第3势力--公众党怎样破除2选1僵局。这才是开始迈向真正民主的大道。
大家加油⛽！
YB的承诺Vs联邦政府的决定
YB们的承诺Vs联邦政府的决定
YB 林承诺争取在诗巫建立一座癌症中心，结果，联邦政府只愿意在诗巫医院增设癌症部门。YB林是否有建癌症中心的提案和坚持立场诗巫急需癌症中心应付中区大概有90万的人口。
记得上一回2018年联邦选举，YB林承诺在诗巫医院建一座800万的多层停车场，后来希盟狂胜，结果只建了50个停车位。
副卫生部长，砂人，Lukanisman只会叩头, 被动的接受联邦政府决定。联邦所给的理由，是令人愤怒的，说医药管理涉及庞大开销，砂不适合全面接管，这是哪一门的logic？
以我看是联邦从砂征收的税金两，三千亿令吉不愿意合理的回馈给咱们。每次联邦医疗拨款，只给砂少过5%。
我可以结论一下YB林代表火箭，YB程和YB Lukanisman 代表砂政盟都是被动无能，欣然接受联邦政府安排，退而求其次。任由联邦政府摆布，完全没有坚持砂优先立场。
YB程说索权要求20亿拨款，砂加15亿来规划医疗，推广和提升医疗系统。 又是做亏本和愚蠢的事，咱们福州话说zo buangnu di zaiye.
联邦政府或马来亚政府处处打压砂拉越。诗巫建癌症和心脏中心是要寄望在未来，不知道要等到什么时候。
我认为争取教育和医疗自主权，唯一的途径是上法庭求公道去。如果无效就上国际法庭，脱马独立，砂民必须有1514和1541的意愿来裁定砂未来。

SMK Sebuyau
Fact & Truth -- My comment on:
SMK Sebuyau still in sorry state despite new site approved 10 yrs ago
According to the Minister of Utility and Communication, Sarawak, …. Julaihi, several building including a multi-purpose hall were in dilapidated and unstable conditions
In his facebook posting, he appealed federal Ministry of Education/MoE for immediate attention and speeding up the construction of a new block
I wonder who parliamentary member in the said constituency is. He has not performed his task at all from the fact and truth of the conditions of SMK Sebuyau.
I am rest-assured to say that the said federal YB’s hands and legs must have been tied up by his self-interest and official position.
The GPS government, well, has never been serious enough to exercise the power to demand for the task to be accomplished or sue the federal government in court.
Instead of having the meals in the hall, the boarding students use their meals at open spaces. So do the cooks preparing the meal in improper place.
Julaihi, has allocated RM500,000 for a new multi-purpose hall for the school and it was approved by federal MoE about 10 years ago. Isn’t it ridiculous to seek approval of federal MoE despite using Sarawak own fund for the building?
It is no doubt depressing and disheartening to hear that other buildings of SMK Sebuyau are also in dilapidated and unsafe conditions. They have no choice but use them.
I wonder whether the Facebook posting of Julaihi to call upon the immediate attention and action of federal MoE would be entertained or not.
联邦教育局或自家的问题？
副总理Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas）关切地看到，由于繁文缛节，难以为州选区武吉沙班的学校提供物质援助。
“我意识到，作为民选代表，我们现在需要首先获得教育部的同意。我们不能只是根据要求向学校提供我们承诺的任何援助。”
Uggah说，他最近按照这里一所学校的要求购买了一些空调设备用于其大厅，但直到交付六个月后还未安装。
“当我问为什么时，我被告知这是因为（教育）部尚未批准安装它们。我也被告知要写信给该部门，寻求其批准提供帮助，”他感叹道。
他说，这导致人们认为他没有履行帮助学校的承诺。
“并不是说我们违背了承诺，而是我们的双手被束缚了，”他说。
不过，乌加表示，他将就此事寻求州教育办公室的澄清
我的看法
这完全是自家领袖的问题。学校单位没有主见和立场。把Uggah 买来的空调在学校大礼堂安装上去，犯了那一条联邦宪法？ 说没有获得联邦教育局的批准是安装不得，这是什么鬼话！
跟个个首相和高官们贪污舞弊滥权对比一下，这连一粒沙子都不是，我不知道这学校的校长的思维是否有问题。
还有Uggah, 也乘机把援助的事推得一干二净：“并不是说我们违背了承诺，而是我们的双手被束缚了，”他说。
咱们砂拉越诸多残校就是因为砂议会议员和砂联邦议员不管是GPS的或反对派政党都是完全没有真心诚意的为砂民谋福利，以砂优先。
砂政府是时候换班了吧！

How to exit from the federation of Malaysia
How to exit from the federation of Malaysia by peaceful means – Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) Plan
I had been advised by many legal experts that there is a right to Sarawak and Sabah to seek independence from the Federation of Malaysia by peaceful and legal means. This right was mentioned by Lord Lansdowne, the Chairman of the Inter-Governmental Committee (IGC) during the formation of Malaysia. United Nations General Assembly Resolution 1514 (UNGAR 1514) also mentioned the right of self-determination by colonies which can lead to independence. There is no prohibition in the federal and state constitutions to exit from the federation of Malaysia.
Legal experts also opined that Malaysia Agreement 1963(MA63) signed on 9 July 1963 used to form the federation of Malaysia was null and void or even if valid, the fundamental breaches of MA63 had led the Agreement void.
The position of Sarawak and Sabah (SS) in Malaysia is unique and there are a few strategies to set SS free and independent from the federation of Malaysia if the people of Sarawak and Sabah are willing to follow PBK Plan to exit. Many experts opined that Sarawak and Sabah are colonies of Malaya. Malaya took a new name, MALAYSIA, after Sabah Sarawak and Singapore were acquired to enlarge Malaya.
The strategies that PBK has in mind are as follows:
1. Follow Singapore strategy under PAP. PAP was the government of Singapore in 1965 and LKY then created political tensions with Malayaa by Malaysian Malaysia issue. This forced Tunku Abdul Rahman or Malaya to sit at the table to trash the differences with Singapore on Malaysian Malaysia issue. The matter could not be resolved and Singapore then declared herself independent from Malaysia on 9 August, 1965 to become an independent and sovereign state.
We must capture the state government first because the high court already made it clear only the state government can move or deal matters in connection with MA63 to court. The court also made it clear that the issues about the formation of Malaysia and MA63 could or should be brought in parliament by the state government.
If PBK forms the state government, PBK will bring the issues concerning the formation of Malaysia and all problems arising and concerning the illegality of the MA63 to the federal government. A dateline must be set to resolve the differences to resolve all differences about MA63. PBK would likely demand terms to be resolved within the timeline. Once dateline passed, PBK may like what Singapore did, just declare independence through the Dewan Undangan Negri (DUN) but before this is done, PBK government may stir the matter to get people support. If 70%-80% Sarawakians and Sabahans want independence, what can Malaya do?
This would be like a referendum and is good for purpose of UN General Assembly Resolution 1514.
This is people’s power
We can also move motions in parliament to remove provisions concerning Malay supremacy. This would be in line with what Singapore campaigned for that led to Singapore Exit from Malaysia.
2. File in court to declare MA63 void. If the court declares that MA63 is null and void, Sarawak and Sabah should be allowed to leave the federation of Malaysia.
3. File suit in United Kingdom (UK) to declare MA63 a fraud and claim damages- see how HINDRAF did for Malaysian Indians. Although HINDRAF failed to get what they wanted but the case how HINDRAF took the matter to UK court is worth exploring. To say that UK court may not have the jurisdiction to hear the application to declare MA63 as a fraud should be strongly disputed because MA63 was signed in UK and if fraud is argued there should not be barred from limitation of time to file the suit in UK court.
4. Persuade at least two nations that are sympathetic to our problems and or countries that are not in good terms with UK and Malaya to speak about the neo-colonization of Sarawak and Sabah and defects of formation of Malaysia with view to refer the issues to United Nations International Court of Justice (ICJ) to declare MA63 null and void or to declare Malaysia was a fraud. Maybe we get a member nation of United Nations to sponsor the suit before ICJ like how South Africa did for Palestine against Israel recently.
5. Bring the matter to United Nations Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) to tell the world the federal constitution is discriminatory and or not protecting the minorities etc. See the case of Sandra Lovelace v. Canada, Communication No. R.6/24, U.N. Doc. Supp. No. 40 (A/36/40) at 166 (1981) an Indian in Canada who brought her matter to UNHRC. It was also about issues of discrimination against Sandra Lovelace and also land rights caused by her marriage to an non-indian.
If UNHCR opined that the federal constitution is discriminatory against the minorities of Sarawak and Sabah, the Sarawak and Sabah governments have to pursue the matter in parliament and also to the court to get the relevant discriminatory provisions in the federal constitution removed. If the discriminatory provisions not removed, this could be good reason for Sarawak and Sabah to exit peacefully from the federation.
For Malaysia, a law professor whom I consulted, told me Malaya would not be able to amend the constitution against race, Religion and Royalty (3R issues). Once the constitution is not amended to remove the discrimination against minorities, the people of Sarawak and Sabah should decide whether to exit from the federation of Malaysia. If exit is favoured this could, perhaps, be done by Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) in the Dewan Undangan Negeri.

Zahid's land corporation
*Anwar quietly approved this proposal to rob off the wealth of the hard working citizen especially the Chinese to be given freely to Bumi*
Zahid's land corporation proposal is insidious, unfeasible.
P Gunasegaram in Malaysiakini - Mar 7, 2024
https://www.malaysiakini.com/columns/698505
COMMENT | One proposal announced by no less than Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi went relatively unnoticed at the recently concluded Bumiputera Economic Congress (BEC), where a slew of proposals for helping well-off bumiputera was unveiled.
It could be the most insidious and the one that is most patently unfair to other Malaysian citizens from whom part of their land would be taken away upon the renewal or even extension of leases.
According to Zahid, who is also the rural and regional development minister, the government plans to set up a Bumiputera Land Corporation (Perbadanan Tanah Bumiputera) to preserve land ownership, as part of an effort to strengthen the community by boosting its land ownership.
According to a report quoting Zahid, if the lease size exceeds 50 acres (20.23ha) for agricultural land or 20 acres for industrial use, the proposal calls for 20 percent of the land to be handed back to the government upon lease renewal or extension.
“The creation of a Bumiputera Land Corporation would signify a proactive measure aimed at ensuring a balanced racial demographic, sustaining bumiputera businesses in agriculture, industry, and new settlements, and preserving bumiputera ownership,” he said.
Zahid envisaged that the returned portion of land would be then overseen by the corporation.
“I am confident that this initiative holds the potential to yield substantial returns and significant opportunities for bumiputera to possess a stake in the nation's land assets,” he added.
Tremendous implications
One hopes that this badly conceived scheme is still at the proposal stage and will not see the light of day. The implications are tremendous. Note that all agricultural land above 50 acres will come under this and 20 acres for industrial land.
If you had a small plantation of 50 acres growing oil palm for instance, and if you were non-bumiputera (I’m assuming this stipulation does not apply to bumiputera companies) you have to give up 10 acres upon lease renewal or even a mere extension.
That means you will lose too the yearly output that you get because the area planted will be reduced by 10 acres. The amount of fresh fruit bunches decreases by 20 percent and so will your revenue. Profit may decrease even more than that because of loss of economies of scale.
Let’s say down the road you have an oil palm mill, logistics centre and office premises amounting to 20 acres, you suddenly have to carve out four acres for allocation to the Bumiputera Land Corporation.
Presumably, the corporation will hand it over to a privileged bumiputera who can then sell it back to the original lessor for a huge premium. What a quick and easy way to make money and for the government to hand out patronage to its own people.
It beats even approved permits and rivals that infamous 30 percent bumiputera equity stipulation.
Something like this could only have been conceived by an Umno minister who will have the necessary audacity, the sense of entitlement and the complete lack of ethical behaviour to suggest such a one-sided deal.
Imagine the kind of havoc it will cause - factories, offices, plantations, food production etc. Right now, almost all leases are automatically renewed on the payment of a premium and business continuity is assured.
Let’s take Malaysia’s largest plantation - Sime Darby - which has an estimated planted acreage of 730,000 acres in Malaysia. Sime Darby may not be considered a bumiputera company because of its diverse shareholders.
That would mean that it will eventually have to give up 20 percent of its plantations in Malaysia or 146,000 acres. Using a very conservative estimate of RM10,000 per acre, that alone is worth RM1.46 billion. Potentially, billions of ringgit of properties are involved across all businesses.
The result of this ill-considered move to surrender 20 percent of larger tracts of land upon lease renewal or extension is a huge business disruption and the abuse of allocation of land to privileged bumiputera, two things we really don’t need.
Unless strictly necessary, leases are not normally terminated or withdrawn. This practice ensures fairness to all landowners and assurance that businesses of all kinds have reasonable certainty that they can operate in a system which is fair, equitable and reasonable.
Why, the move could be even against the Federal Constitution that stipulates that everyone is treated equally under the law. It implies that people cannot have their property taken away through any process and then redistributed to others.
Zahid’s proposal should be nixed in the bud forthwith before it becomes a needless contentious and divisive issue.
P GUNASEGARAM says proposals should be vetted for fairness and feasibility before they are made public.
评论 | 副首相艾哈迈德·扎希德·哈米迪宣布的一项提案在最近结束的土著经济大会（BEC）上相对未被注意到，会上公布了一系列帮助富裕土著的提案。
这可能是最阴险的，对其他马来西亚公民来说也是最不公平的，他们的部分土地将在续签甚至延长租约时被剥夺。
兼任乡村及区域发展部长的阿末扎希表示，政府计划成立土著土地公司（Perbadanan Tanah Bumiputera）来保护土地所有权，作为通过提高土地所有权来加强社区的努力的一部分。
根据扎希德的报道，如果农业用地的租赁面积超过50英亩（20.23公顷）或工业用地超过20英亩，该提案要求在续租或延期时将20%的土地交还给政府。
他说：“土著土地公司的成立将意味着一项积极主动的措施，旨在确保种族人口平衡，维持土著在农业、工业和新定居点的业务，并维护土著所有权。”
阿末扎希设想，归还的部分土地将由该公司监管。
他补充说：“我相信，这项举措有可能带来丰厚的回报，并为土著拥有持有国家土地资产的重要机会。”
巨大的影响
人们希望这一构思糟糕的计划仍处于提案阶段，不会出现。 其影响是巨大的。 请注意，所有 50 英亩以上的农业用地都将归入此范围，20 英亩的工业用地将归入此范围。
例如，如果您有一个占地 50 英亩的小种植园，种植油棕，并且如果您是非土著（我假设此规定不适用于土著公司），您必须在续租时放弃 10 英亩，甚至仅仅放弃 扩大。
这意味着您也将损失您获得的年产量，因为种植面积将减少 10 英亩。 新鲜果串的数量减少了 20%，您的收入也会减少。 由于规模经济的损失，利润可能会下降得更多。
假设在路上你有一个油棕加工厂、物流中心和办公场所，占地 20 英亩，你突然必须划出 4 英亩分配给土著土地公司。
据推测，该公司会将其交给享有特权的土著，然后土著可以以巨额溢价将其卖回给原始出租人。 这是一种多么快捷简单的赚钱方式，也是政府向本国人民提供资助的方式。
它甚至击败了已批准的许可证和竞争对手臭名昭著的 30% 土著股权规定。
只有巫统部长才能构想出这样的事情，他必须有必要的胆识、权利感和完全缺乏道德行为来提出这样一项单方面的协议。
想象一下它将造成什么样的破坏——工厂、办公室、种植园、食品生产等。目前，几乎所有租约都会在支付溢价后自动续签，并且业务连续性得到保证。
以马来西亚最大的种植园——森那美（Sime Darby）为例，该种植园在马来西亚的种植面积估计为 730,000 英亩。 由于股东多元化，森那美可能不被视为土著公司。
这意味着它最终将不得不放弃马来西亚 20% 的种植园，即 146,000 英亩。 以每英亩 10,000 令吉的非常保守估计，仅此一项就价值 14.6 亿令吉。 所有业务都可能涉及数十亿令吉的财产。
这种在续租或延期时交出 20% 大片土地的考虑不周的举措，其结果是造成巨大的商业混乱，并滥用土地分配给享有特权的土著，这是我们真正不需要的两件事。
除非绝对必要，否则租约通常不会终止或撤销。 这种做法确保了对所有土地所有者的公平，并保证各类企业有合理的确定性，他们可以在公平、公正和合理的体系中运营。
为什么，此举甚至可能违反联邦宪法，该宪法规定每个人在法律下受到平等对待。 这意味着人们不能通过任何程序夺走自己的财产，然后重新分配给他人。
阿末扎希的提议应该在它成为不必要的争议和分裂问题之前立即被扼杀在萌芽状态。
P GUNASEGARAM 表示，提案在公开之前应经过公平性和可行性审查。
