*Dams, Crocodiles, and Controversies: Nick's Concerns Over Sarawak's Development Plans*
Nick commented on the 3 giant Malaysian companies namely Petronas, CMS and Gamuda competing to build dams and venture into the renewable energy industry in Sarawak. Sarawak wants to build a dam in Trusan in Limbang and Lawas. Plus the Baram and Tutoh dams. According to Nick, the Penan people who are the majority living in the area feel depressed, worried, feel like they are being bullied and oppressed. We were not asked if we agreed or not. In addition, today the Sarawak state assembly conference reported an increase in the crocodile population in Sungai Balingian. According to the Premier, the construction of the dam is to control the increase in the crocodile population. The dam should be built in Balingian, not in Tutoh. According to Nick, the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Bill 2023 that was approved in the State Assembly today is very good for protecting the environment. So the Sarawak government should stop building dams, stop logging and palm oil plantations that destroy the environment. If it is true that the Sarawak government wants to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2050.
