Sabahans living in the “dark ages” rule by the ‘Decepticons’

ALL THESE WHILE, Barisan Nasional (left) politicians and government leaders in the state had been denying (through their teeth) and ignoring the fact that Sabahans have been living in darkness since Sabah Electricity Board (SEB) became Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd (SESB).

But this is no longer the case now when recently two state BN component party leaders publicly, courageously and repeatedly proclaimed that in fact, they too “were in the dark”.

Yes, that’s right, they too were "in the dark". They are none other than the Moyog Assemblyman cum State Assistant Finance Minister, Datuk Donald Mojuntin (below left) and his party (UPKO) boss Tan Sri Bernard Dompok (below right), who is also the MP for Penampang cum Federal Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister.

They proclaimed this separately when commenting on the controversy over the proposed construction of the RM2.8 billion Kaiduan dam project near Papar. In other words, they have claimed ignorance over the implementation of the project following a strong protest from the affected villages who feared that once the project is implemented and completed, their villages (around 11 of them) and all their heritage, dreams and future would be submerged in water.

But, a random survey conducted by me in every nook and corner of Penampang District and Kota Kinabalu City somehow shows that the public were not at all convinced but rather amused by their “ignorance” claim. Several of them even unanimously and cheekily described it as the “Decepti-con Syndrome” a newly-discovered syndrome named after the comic characters “Decepticons” in the blockbuster movies – the Transformer I & II which possess the elements of ‘deception’ and ‘con’, which is said to be worse than the “denial syndrome” which had long infected most of the BN politicians and those rogue civil servants in the civil service.

The respondents were not convinced with Dompok and Mojuntin’s ignorance claim as they recalled that this was not the first time they had heard of such claims. They cited the RM100 mil Kimanis Oil and Gas Terminal project for example where, at one stage Dompok was even seen to be critical and vocal about it, but eventually not only did he fizzle out but also accepted and endorsed the project, and unconditionally at that. Can someone come forward to prove otherwise?

Among the respondents were the affected villagers who were suspicious of the conspicuous absence of both Dompok and Mojuntin during the ritual of the Pitouan Tonduk or "Batu Sumpah" (curse stone) (left) conducted by the villagers in Kg Timpayasa two weeks ago, seeking the help of the spirits of their ancestors to safeguard their villages from harm’s way, in particular the dam project.

They said if both of them were truly ignorant about the dam project, they should have then made all efforts to attend the ritual, instead of avoiding it and then instructing the Penampang District Office to summon the villagers to attend a dialogue with the District Officer William Sampil (right). Are they (Dompok & Mojuntin) feeling guilty or running scared?

The villagers reiterated that they may be able to accept their ‘ignorance claim’ if the project involved was an insignificant drain construction project, but this one is a mega project which involves many government departments and agencies, coupled with the fact that it has been approved by the State Cabinet and announced by the then Infrastructures Development Minister cum former Deputy Chief Minister, Datuk Raymond Tan Shu Kiah (above).

“We may not be highly-educated, but we’re certainly not fools or born just yesterday,” they stressed.

A political analyst who is well-versed with “kaki-lima” medicine peddling commented that this was definitely a serious case of Ignorance-citis, which is prevalent and reaching epidemic proportions among local politicians. He said this illness was due to the fact that these politicians felt the local population was very naive and claiming ignorance would deflect all blame away from them. These politicians believed that ignorance was bliss but are having serious problems due to their claims being stripped naked by the internet and blogging community.

The threat from the net community is so serious that soon many such politicians might be forced to give up their elected seats and look for permanent toilet seats.

  6. Hahahahaha....this could be a good parody for the Transformer movies or, a part of the "Funny Movies" sequel.

    This piece is indeed entertaining yet it stripped naked our politicians who always thought that the people are really stupid when in actual fact they've only made a fool of themselves.

    In fact, i would suggest that the affected villagers should perhaps paste the photos of the two YBs who claimed they were "in the dark" on the Batu Sumpah and lets see how they react to it.

    YB Donald, you're indeed right for saying that you're ashame for being "in the dark" over the damned project.

    And Tan Sri Dumbpork, you too should be ashamed of yourself for playing dumb. You might have got away with the play acting on the Kimanis oil & gas project, but certainly not this one.

  7. To me, it's imposibble for Dompok and Mojuntin to be "in the dark". I'm not against the Govt but Dompok should be out by next election. I never seen him defending the KDM. He's all talk and NATO.

    A leader should defend is own people if not the people of the whole Sabah.

    Don't just bark with no bites.

    That's my 2 cents.

  12. Haha,those political leaders are dumbass to be true.They should update themselves with current issues.They are not dumb to let themselves to be humiliated in the press.As for the dam thingie,I think they have some insiders to tell them what's going on.Donald is the Moyog Assemblyman,how come he didnt come across with this matter?Well,I dont have anything to prove me right but hey..are you nuts to say like-Oh no folks,I dont even notice there is something about this dam and blah blah blah..If I were one of the folks there..gimme an axe and I will chop you till dead.

Perubahan iklim politik yang merosakkan segala harta milik di sini sememangnya membuktikan pemimpin BN memang tidak layak untuk berada di sini.Kata2 manis yang dilemparkan sekadar menghangatkan jiwa tapi agendanya tiada siapa yang tau.Saya tau ko bukan Tuhan mahupun dewa tapi laksanakanlah tanggungjwab anda.Jika anda tia mau dikategorikan sebagai loser of the centuries then show to us what you can do!If not,back off!

  18. Jika majoriti orang Sabah menyokong pentadbiran BN, kita harus hormati keputusan mereka. Saya percaya kumpulan majoriti ini tahu dan memahami keputusan yang mereka buat. Munkin apa yang BN buat itu tidaklah sempurna, inilah peluang pembangkang membangkit dan memberi tekanan kepada kerajaan untuk mengubah atau menyusun semula dasar-dasar kerajaan demi kebaikan rakyat. Supaya tiada golongan yang diabai atau dipinggirkan. Serta kemajuan negara dapat dipertingkatkan.

  19. The Puppet on the string.

    YB Dumpork and YB Donald Duck are the two famous puppeteers in Penampang. They play ‘Wayang Kulit’ most effectively by claiming all credits when they are not due to them; by avoiding issues of their own creation that are detrimental to themselves or to their party UPKO. Hence, they hide behind the curtain by instigating/organizing protests over certain issues.

    Penampang has been beset with one problem after another such as the relocation of squatters from Sri Tanjung to Kampung Maang; the construction of sewerage in the middle of the Penampang gazetted paddy fields; the Penampang and Putatan re-delineation and the latest, Kaiduan dam and Maang Water Treatment Plant.

    This is how both of them are best described: Donald Duck is a lame duck politician who cannot decide himself. He has to get approval or concurrence from his boss before he decides, and his decision must follow Dumpork’s whims and fancies even if it is against his (Donald’s) will. He has no backbone at all as he cannot make his own decision. He is like The Puppet on the string controlled by his Master Puppeteer who, in this case, is Dumpork.

    Dumpork will, one day, dump Donald Duck once his Master Puppeteer is fed up with him.
    There is no need to dump him out yet. You will both be dumped out in the next GE.

    Dumpork has once said that "the Kadazandusun people have got short memories". Well, let the people prove you wrong in the next GE. They will recall their memories to their best advantage to dump both of you out.

  27. 'I learnt about dam from villagers'

    Published on: Thursday, November 05, 2009

    Kota Kinabalu: Consultant firms appointed by the Government to undertake feasibility studies on the construction of dams in Sabah should be more sensitive to the feelings of residents in these areas to avoid misunderstanding and untoward incidents.

    Kadamaian Assemblyman Datuk Herbert Timbon Lagadan made the call after villagers in Kg Tambatuan in Kota Belud chased away a consultant for bringing in equipment to do a feasibility study on a proposed dam project in the area.

    He said the consultant concerned should also brief the relevant parties including the District Officer and elected people's representatives on the proposed project.

    "I only found out about the proposed dam project from the villagers of Kg Tambatuan who expressed their anger and told me about how they chased away the consultant who came in with a lorry and other equipment to do a study in the area.

    "The consultant concerned should not just simply drive into the village just because they have the Government contract. Instead they should brief local authorities in the district on the proposed project so that the villagers can be informed properly.

    "This is imperative because we do not want people to get hurt due to wrong perceptions, as the villagers may misinterpret the proposed project as relocating them elsewhere and cause them to lose their land," he said Herbert, who is also State Community Development and Consumer Affairs Assistant Minister.

    In a recent district development action committee meeting in Kota Belud, he said the consultant briefed him and the local authorities, including the District Officer, on the proposed dam project in the district.

    Herbert said the dam was proposed for the district to supply sufficient irrigation water for the paddy fields and to generate electricity in the district.

    "I have insisted and requested the Kota Belud district officer hold a friendly dialogue with the kampung folk of Kg Tambatuan on the proposed dam.

    "I was told by the District Officer that the dialogue will be held at Kg Tambatuan after the tabling of the State Budget next week," he said.

    Herbert said there would have been less backlash from the affected villagers if the consultant firms involved in the proposed Kaiduan Dam in Papar had taken the initiative to inform them as well as the local authorities and elected representatives.

    "I think the Government is not at fault but the consultant firms should be more sensitive to the people's feeling especially those affected villagers who do not understand the objective of building the dam.

    "All that matters to these appointed consultants is the payment of their contract from the Government.

    Perhaps a more clear and people-friendly guideline should be given to these consultant firms to avoid misconceptions and people getting angry with the Government of the day," he said.

    The consultant was appointed by the UMNO/BN government to undertake a job.The question here is who appointed him and who approved it?

    With all the denial from Dumpork,Donald the lame duck and now devil in disguise Herbie Cucumber,who has the authority to approve such a mega project in Sabah?

    Aaaah...your guess is as good as mind,non other then Musang Pakistan.

  32. Tan Sri Bernard have been the state leader for such a long period and still maintain strong support from the people. The winning of the MP seat for two terms and the state assembly seat before proof the statement. This mean that majority of the people in the said area recognized the contribution of Tan Sri Bernard and continue to give him strong support during the general election. Any accusation against him are such a great humiliation against the wisdom of his supporter in the Penampang.

    I don't blame the YBs.

    VERY EASY BAH TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. WHY ARE WE FIGHGTING AGAINST OURSELF. Just ask SESB whether they have inform the YBs.

    For everyone info, there are many projects by them which SESB hentam only WITHOUT consulting the rakyat. I know of one 100 Million project which no YBs know done by SESB yet the project was already drawn up and many Kg folk will be affected.

    SESB is own by TNB and most of their heads are UMNO people.

  37. I haven't heard yet, or may b i am not aware about it but......i've read, some says that this Dam will be overwhelm Sabahans, whenever the dam broken or when it cannot be in good condition. Have you guys heard about an island end with this kind of situation. Sound so scary huhh....

    As what has i observed some people, just want to put fire here and there....Try so hard to make people believe that this is a bad project...especially they used kampung people to make a noise on any issues.

    But in the end Sabahans will be suffer, nothing good happen then....

  40. Senteria, I couldn't agree more with you.

    True, there are pros and cons of building a dam. Especially if the wall cracks, infrequent maintenance and etc.

    What I can see is that there is someone behind the raging villagers and stirring things up to a much more worse level. This person must be telling the negative sides of this project and stuffs.

    But when thing starts to get much more worse, who will be, in the end, to suffer? The Sabahans.

  50. I had been to Buayan and its nearby villages for several time. The place is beautiful and potential for all sort of development. I suggest that the proposed cultural village should be sited there. It must also be remembered that the ancestors of the Kadazans at Penampang and Papar once used this places during their migratory period about 200 years ago. By all means we should protect and preserve them. No to this damned dam.

  54. Need we have to say more when we had already provided about 300mld of water from babagon dam, madsiang intake point and kasigui point. I believed its more than enough for you guys to benefit at our expense. For your info, for us who are living underlying the babgon dam we could hardly sleep whenever there were thunderstorm. It really affect our life for the past 13years or so. So please no more second dam at Penampang. We suspect this Kaiduan Dam might be used for the Kimanis Gas Processing Terminal. Look this are all for the benefit of the few especially the companies operating the Gas Terminal. Think carefully we dont need mamoth dam at the expense of the poor kampung people and the last natural heritage that we have at Kaiduan and the vicinity. We gave Bermard a chance to oppose the proposed dam at their convention recently but nothing had been put out. Who knows in the future we might demonstrate when the PM visit Sabah again. Lets us be united in opposing this damned dam.

    ReplyDelete
  59. There a lot of alternatives.

    It only need time, money and research.

    I don't know how some say Bakum Dam is enough to supply electricity to the whole of Sabah.

    Ignorant twat.

  60. As a Sabahan, honestly say i din feel that i m living in the 'dark age'. It might not perfect or better compare to KL, but we still enjoy the peace and harmony in the state.

    luv peace

  62. Do not worry Sabahan, the 'dark age' will soon vanish. We will no longer rule by the dark forces lead by Decepticon.
    See the power of the Autobots. Like dawn of the day, shine till noon day. Cast away darkness.

  71. Kaiduan Dam is actually beneficial to all of us. Problems like water shortage and unsafe to drink (contaminate) will not be arised with the existence of this dam. We should be grateful for what is installed to us. We cannot blame our Wakil Rakyat for their acknowledgements of the plan. It is however be the best for all if the location of the project will be moved to more appropriate areas...Hope this will be implemented soon.. :-)

  72. Kaiduan Dam is good for everybody. Ronnie sometime we have take one step back before we can go a mile.

    Look at the 4 gorges dam in China in Yang Tze Kiang river. The natives love the project as when the infrastructure improve more tourist will come in. With 2.8 Billion, goverment will provide Million to the natives affected family.

    Believe me the natives in Kaiduan currently is living "kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang". I was one of the native but after I move to KK, I have trouble living in the area as letrik, road and water very hard and no tv.

    The problem with this project is "MANY QUESTION".."BANYAK SOALAN". Who get the project??? Sarawakian AGAIN???

    We Sabahan must understand that Sarawakian Contractors got all the mega projects. Sabahan only got small project like building toilets, gut grass..BUT mega project go to Sarawakians.

    KK airport..Ting Pek King..sudah hancur sudah..Fly over WCT..

    If at all..this Dam Project MUST go to KDM not to Foo CHows...

    With us getting the project..we will be nicer to our KDMS...Sarawakian..they only think of money.

  73. I cant help but to inform those who had not seen the Pangi Dam. Its environment freindly and renewable energy. Why cant we build few more along the Salong road at Sepulut and transmit the power to the east coast through the kalabakan road. Why built coal power which is deceptive in nature. Also why we need to construct dams. Please remember that once the dam reach to certain period it could no longer be usable since siltation from the bottom level would soon develop. We sabahans should think carefully of the harzadous and deceptive consequence of dam and coal power. I sencerely seek your wisdom to oppose these deceptions. Lets pray together to stop these damn coal deception.

  74. Ever wonder why Foo chows get projects and KDM otherwise. KDMs need to be united as the Foo Chows are today and for a very long time. As long as the dichotomy exist amongst the KDMs they will never be able to secure mega projects such as the Kaiduan Dam. Anyway just build the dammed DAM!!!...but no shortcuts in procedures please.

  75. The big huh hah over etc the dam, the coal power station is that you people are just making blind accusations for political mileage.
    What prudent or right thinking Sabahans should be looking is to the pros and cons on the projects.
    But first and foremost is that all these projects must be implemented strictly according to the guidelines to prevent disaster like floods and pollutions to the state. Like the dam, if it is built, will it affected only the specific villages or it will cause flooding to other surrounding areas, just in case there is an overload of water where the dam have to open its gate to relief the pressure, just like many years ago when the Babagon Dam gate was forced to be opened and cause the massive flooding in Penampang.
    The coal power stations are very safe if the operation is strictly according to guidelines, but with the rampant corruption in Malaysia, the operators of the station mighe cut corners in terms of the waste disposal which could contaminate the soil drastictly if not properly done just like what is going on with the palm oil mills, poisoning the Kinabatangan. If the Govt can guarantee strict enforcement and no corruption then it is good, otherwise the Sabah people are the ones who are going to suffer. Those reaping the profits from all these projects will be living comfortably in New Zealand and Australia. It is the poor Sabah villagers who are going to suffer.

  76. I like the idea of building mini wind turbines. Can anyone show me how to build one? Meanwhile, I'm still looking for an old bicycle frame to make a bicycle generator (For the fun of it). There is also something on You-tube that shows you how to charge your i-pod with a lemon. Or potato. Fascinating stuff.

  79. Gina,

    You are the one with THE mind.

    Wind turbine requires an alternator with gears for speed to get the required frequencies and power. If your need it to constantly provide you power you need batteries and power regulators as the wind turbine itself will not be able to provide you with constant electricity you need.

    Anyway...If we all contribute as I said above, things will get much smoother. May not with the batteries but at least with with capability of the wind turbine itself to generate electricity distribution.


    What I am saying is that, If all those Sabahan Musa Aman Zombies (as we all know in he last general elections) contribute to provide electricity generated from wind turbines and/or solar power, things will look up for the environment and humanity

    Less power consumptions, less carbon foot print, less global warming... and everything else will fall in place.

    But I cannot expect puny Sabahan minds to understand that as they hunger for infractructural DEVELOPMENT. They fail to understand that DEVELOPMENT comes in many facets.
