OF MALAYSIA DAY, BARU BIAN AND GABRIEL ADIT
After 46 years and losing 2/3 majority in Parliament, finally, the Federal Government has given long due recognition of the day Sabah and Sarawak joined Malaya to form Malaysia. Najib has declared that 16 Sept is a public holiday for the whole nation beginning next year.
During my school years, we were taught that Sabah and Sarawak 'masuk' Malaysia, a blatant lie as if one study history carefully, Sabah and Sarawak together with Malaya and Singapura joined to form Malaysia. How can one 'masuk' something that has yet to be formed? Later, Singapura went it separate way, a smart move I might say.
In the papers today, Baru Bian, a prominent lawyer well known to champion the rights of the natives to protect their land from the land robbers ie big corporations with ties to the state politicians is going to be appointed as the state liaison officer, replacing a fellow from Semenanjung.
I think it is a right move as Baru as he is known among his friends and clients, courageous and dare enough to challenge the state and be a voice for the oppressed native land owners in Sarawak.
Being a professional, I believe he will be able to shoulder the responsibility to lead Parti Keadilan in the upcoming state election that is due in the not too distant future.
As for Adit-the-2-face joker, after knowing that he has been passed yet again for top post in the party as when he was with Parti Rakyat Sarawak, declared that he does not support PKR anymore. What a blessing!!.....It is good for him to throw tantrums now rather then when the state election is just around the corner. Imagine the chaos......
Adit cannot be trusted as, judging from his conduct when he was in PRS and now in PKR, this guy is like 'lalang ditiup angin', a spineless political creature, looking for something to satistify his hunger for position and power even if it means ignoring the principle that he claimed to uphold.
So, go ahead Adit and form another party and appoint yourself as a whole life president, then you might be satisfied.
It will surely be the end of your political career.......
