*Villagers' 2013 Lawsuit Against TH: Court Date Rescheduled for Tomorrow*
Blockade 3rd Week Update.
This week marks the 3rd week for the residents of 9 longhouses in Ruan, Simunjan to hold a blockade to prevent the company TH- Tabung Haji from taking out palm oil from the Semalatong Farm. Semalatong Farm is a farm cultivated by TH as a result of cooperation with developing NCR land of local residents. However, when the oil palm produced the results, TH refused to hand over the profits of the plantation to the people who own the land. When investigated in detail. Apparently TH cheated the residents by taking their land but included the names of other people (who did not own the land) in the agreement document. Residents have taken the case to court since 2013 and the case has been postponed several times at TH's request.
However - tomorrow (February 21, 2024), at 9.00 am - according to TR. Mini ak Ringkai this case will be tried at the Kuching high court.
We hope there will be no more delays this time, said TR. Mini ak Ringkai. Lawyer Dominic Ng will represent the residents. On the other hand, on February 28, 2024, TH will sue the residents for holding a blockade. It is understood that TH has obtained a court order to ask residents to lower their blockade. Therefore, the court will hear the arguments of both sides. Although the case will be heard in court, we will continue the blockade - Said Tr. Mini ak Ringkai.
