| Posted: 22 Aug 2015 04:50 AM PDT  Adenan's insistence to sell the 267-acre MJC land at the price of RM115 million only will be a permanent stigma of his government. He may think that he has "checkmated" me by insisting that I first disclose the name of the intended purchaser who has proposed to purchase the land for RM620 million before he even consider the development plan submitted by the said intended purchaser. However, the general public views it differently. All Sarawakian are aware of the usual Barisan Nasional's oppressive tactic against DAP's supporters and sympathisers, especially when it comes to businessmen and property developers. As such, the intended purchaser who submitted the proposal to buy the land at the price of RM620 million has insisted that I must not disclose his name unless Adenan shows some form of goodwill and sincerity by approving in principle the plan that he proposed. By merely indicating an approval in principle and accepting the intended purchaser's offer, the State Government will get an additional RM505 million. Is that too much to ask of Adenan for an additional RM505 million revenue for the State Government? Whatever excuses that Adenan may give, ultimately, the key issue is clear. It is a matter of selling the 267 acres of State land at the price of RM115 million or RM620 million and Adenan chose to sell it at RM115 million only. Why did he do that? It does not make logical sense. Is he subject to control by someone higher? At the end of the day, the people of Sarawak lost RM505 million which becomes the profits of the 2 shareholders of Standard Parade Development Sdn Bhd, the BN cronies. Clearly, Adenan cannot exonerate himself by claiming that the deal was entered into by the previous Administration. The Sale and Purchase Agreement was signed by the Government on 8-3-2014 which is after he became the Chief Minister of Sarawak. This land deal is a rip-off on the people of Sarawak and Adenan is condoning such rip-off to happen right under his nose. This will go down record of Sarawak history as a stigma in Adenan's government. Meanwhile, I will continue to exert pressure on the MACC to expedite the investigation of the matter. |

| Sarawak Continues to be Marginalised under 11th Malaysia Plan Despite Adenan’s Promises Posted: 18 Aug 2015 06:20 AM PDT  18-8-2015 The 11th Malaysia Plan (11MP) tabled by Adenan Satem is no difference from the 10th Malaysia Plan (10MP) in terms of allocation of fund for Sarawak. In yesterday Adenan's speech in Sarawak DUN, he informed DUN that the total allocation of fund by the Federal Government for Sarawak under the 10MP was RM18.5 billion. " This allocation is made up of Federal Fund totalling RM18.8 billion to implement 1,529 projects and State Fund of RM18.5 billion to implement 1,114 projects." (p.9, 3rd para of Hansard) He also informed Sarawak DUN that the total allocation of Federal Fund for Sarawak under the 11MP will be RM20 billion. " The approved allocation for the State Eleventh Malaysia is RM20 billion to implement 915 projects. So, our contribution is not very far from what we ask from the Federal Government. I hope they will give us as much as we will give. Not give less than what we want to spend ourselves on Eleventh Malaysia Plan." (p.21, 1st para of Hansard) 10th Malaysia Plan(2011 – 2015) Total Federal allocation for Sarawak --RM18.8 billion Average annual Federal Allocation for Sarawak --RM3.76 billion 11th Malaysia Plan (2016 – 2020) Total Federal allocation for Sarawak --RM20 billion Average annual Federal Allocation for Sarawak --RM4 billion All the allocation under the Malaysia Plans are allocated through the annual government Budget presented in Parliament. As the allocation set for Sarawak under the 10MP is 18.8 billion, therefore, on average, Sarawak will be getting about RM3.76 billion a year over the period of 5 years under the 10MP. For the past 5 years, the annual Development Expenditure under the Federal Government's Budget is about RM50 billion. Sarawak is only getting about RM3.76 billion each year which is only a meagre 7.5% of the Federal Government's Development Expenditure budget. Despite Adenan's repeated claim that he will not allow the Federal Government to continue marginalise Sarawak, the figure in the 11MP speaks otherwise. Even assuming the Federal Government honours the pledges under the 11MP, which is RM4 billion per year, and that the Development Expenditure maintains at RM50 billion per year without any increment, Sarawak will be getting only 8% of the Federal Development Expenditure. With the land mass of Sarawak constituting more than 1/3rd of Malaysia land mass, how can Adenan expect this 8% Development Expenditure to enable Sarawak to catch up with the level of development in West Malaysia? Furthermore, given the inflation rate, the real value of RM20 billion for year 2016 – 2020 is well below the real value of RM18.8 billion for the year 2011 – 2015. With such figures, for Adenan to claim that the Federal Government is now placing more importance in Sarawak, he is either being plain naïve or trying to fool the people of Sarawak. In fact it is an irony that despite speaking out so strongly against "marginalisation of Sarawak", Adenan himself tabled the 11MP which marginalise Sarawak. Sarawak has been taken for a ride by the Barisan Nasional Government for more than 52 years and the 11MP is no difference from the previous 10 Malaysia Plans. The marginalisation will continue and Sarawak will continue to be backward so long as BN continues to be the government. Therefore, in the interest of Sarawak, Sarawak BN must withdraw from the National BN. At present, Sarawak BN has the number to tilt the balance of power at Federal level and UMNO is also at its weakest in the nation's history, it is the best time for Adenan to make the move. Therefore, I call upon Adenan to be frank with the people of Sarawak and not try to sweet-talk his way out of the reality. Otherwise, he is a just an accomplice to such marginalisation. |

| Posted: 06 Aug 2015 10:24 PM PDT 7.8.2015 Is the Sarawak State Government's Minor Rural Project (MRP) Fund turning into another of the 1MDB scandal? This is the question that DAP was asking in the DUN Sarawak. DAP has never objected to more allocation to develop the rural area, but we object to the non-transparent nature of the allocation which open up opportunity for corruption. Adenan's allegation of DAP rejecting the RM500 million for rural development is just an attempt to cover-up the State Government's non-transparency in the use of rural development fund, especially the so-called "Minor Rural Project Fund". In November, 2014, the Sarawak DUN approved a sum of RM655.9 million of allocation for MRP fund for the year 2015.  It was only the 4th month of 2015, 2015, the State Government tabled for another additional RM500 million allocation for MRP Fund without giving any justification and detail on how the previous RM655.9 million was spent. It is a norm that for any budgetary allocation, there must be specific mention of the projects concerned for which the fund was allocated. For example, for other items of allocation under the 2015 State Budget, details of the projects were all provided in the Budget: the allocation of research fund for "Production Development from Sago Starch", a sum of RM130,000; "Membina dan Menyiapkan Market/Pusat Penjaja Dua Tingkat di Daerah Julau", a sum of RM650,000; Grant for "Perhentian Bas dan Terminal Bas" for Majlis Daerah Luar Bandar Sibu, a sum of RM150,000; Menaiktaraf Perparitan di Kampung Rampangi, a sum of RM1,000,000. If the Government can provide the details for projects as small a sum as RM150,000 in the Budget, why is the Government hiding and concealing the detail for the sum of RM500 million? Together with the RM655.9 million previously approved for MRP, the additional RM500 million will make the total allocation for MRP for the year 2015 a sum of RM1,155.9 million, devoid of all details of the MRPs to be implemented. I have raised the query that the Government is giving every one of the rural BN DUN area a MRP allocation of RM4 million each. To my query in DUN, there was no denial or answer by Adenan or his ministers. There are about 60 DUN constituencies that can be considered "RURAL". Even if each were to be given the allocation of RM4 million, it only adds up to RM240 million. Where is the balance of RM915.9 million? Adenan's statement is similar to Najib's statement saying that the RM2.6 billion in his personal account is NOT FOR HIS PERSONAL USE. But the people want transparency and answer. If Adenan or his administration has nothing to hide, all the BN ADUNs and the Government must list out all the projects implemented with this RM1,155.9 million allocation. Every year, hundreds of millions Ringgit have been allocated for rural development projects. In total, billions have been allocated for rural projects. Yet, there are still so many kampongs and longhouses without water and electricity, many also not accessible by cars. If there were no corruption or leakages in the use of the rural development fund, no kampong in Sarawak would be without water or electricity by now. Therefore, the problem does not lie with having insufficient fund allocation for MRPs but kickbacks on award of MRPs and the leakages. As a result, the rural people continued to suffer despite billions have been allocated. The State Government must come clean on the use of MRP funds and provide the people answers to the following questions: 1. All details of the projects done with the RM4-million MRP Fund allocated to each of the BN ADUNs; 2. Full details of the projects for the balance RM915.9 million, into whose accounts were these money paid. It is only through stringent public scrutiny and transparency that we can ensure that every Ringgit allocated is well spent and that the rural people will benefit fully from the allocation. |
| Posted: 06 Aug 2015 07:00 PM PDT 古晋市国会议员兼哥打圣淘沙州议员张健仁质问阿德南，"小型乡村发展金"是否将成为砂州版本的"1马发展公司丑闻"。  有关张健仁于今年4月的州议会针对州政府寻求议会额外多拨5亿令吉"小型乡村发展金"提出质疑，阿德南事后将它污蔑为行动党反对政府发展乡村。 对于阿德南的污蔑，张健仁今日再次做出回应。 张健仁说，行动党从来没有反对发展乡村地方，行动党所反对的是不透明的行政和发展拨款，假借'发展乡村'的美名方便国阵领袖和朋党公司官商勾结，中饱私囊。 他指出，去年11月，砂州议会才在《2015年砂州财政预算案》中通过一笔6亿5590万令吉的"小型乡村发展金"供2015年。 今年4月开州议会时，砂州政府又在其附加法案中寻求议会通过额外一笔5亿令吉的"小型乡村发展金"。 "我们首要知道的是，2015年短短的头3个月，难道政府已花完原本财政预算案所通过的那笔6亿5590万令吉的'小型乡村发展金'？ 如此巨大的一笔钱，到底州政府是怎样在如此短的时间内花完，而必须在4月的州议会，再寻求州议会通过另外第二笔5亿令吉的'小型乡村发展金'？" 张健仁指出，任何在财政预算案的拨款，都必须列出该拨款所进行的工程。 他举例，在2015年财政预算案中的一些拨款事项如下： "研究生产sago淀粉"拨款 -- 13万令吉 "建Julau区的双层菜市场/小贩中心"拨款 -- 65万令吉 "诗巫乡村议会巴士占"拨款 -- 15万令吉 "提升甘榜Rampangi的沟渠" -- 100万令吉 他透露，至于在财政预算案和附加法案里所提到的"小型乡村发展金"，虽然涉及的数目是上亿令吉，但却完全没有有关什么工程的资料。 "既然在财政预算案和附加法案，涉及十几万令吉工程的拨款都必须列明有关工程的资料，那为何涉及十几亿令吉的拨款却如此的保密，不敢透露涉及的工程？ 这岂不是欲盖儞章，此地无银三百两?" 张健仁说，去年所通过的《2015年财政预算案》中的"小型乡村发展金"和今年4月《2015年附加法案》中的"小型乡村发展金"加起来，今年的"小型乡村发展金"总数是11亿5590万令吉。 州议会完全无法知道，这笔钱用在那里，如何用，及还给谁。 张氏透露，他在4月的州议会提出质问，政府拨给国阵的每一位州议员400万令吉的"小型乡村发展金"。 对此，阿德南和他的部长们都没有否认。 "但是，问题是，就算每位乡村的州议席都分得400万令吉，全砂州只有月60个乡村议席， 总数也只不过是2亿4000万令吉。 还有剩余的9亿1590万令吉又跑去那里？" 张氏说，如果国阵没有什么好隐瞒的话，它应该列出这11亿5590万令吉所用在的工程。 他也说，每年砂州政府都有上亿的拨款发展乡区，但是为何许多乡村的长屋或甘榜却还是没有水电，甚至有一些还不能通车。 他指出，乡村甘榜仍旧落后，主要原因不是因为拨款不足，而是贪污和浪费，使到大部分的拨款流失，没有真正用在发展乡村的工程上。 如果过去的乡村拨款有真正的用在发展乡村，那今天不应该还会有甘榜或长屋没有水电的了。 张健仁说，阿德南如果要摆脱过去砂州政府那种黑箱作业，中饱私囊的形象，那他必须针对这项"小型乡村发展金"拨款给人民交代以下问题： 1. 国阵每个选区的400万令吉的"小型乡村发展金"用在那里了？ 2. 除了这2亿4000万令吉之外，剩余的9亿1590万令吉去了那里，进了谁的户口？ |
