Special Randau
*Wealth Inequality in Sarawak: 10% Control Majority of State's Resources*
According to data from the Implementation Coordination Unit (ICU) in June 2023, Sarawak, Kelantan, and Sabah are ranked as the top three poorest states in Malaysia. Among them, Sarawak has the highest number of households with income below RM 2,000, totaling 88,173 households. However, Abang Johari has stated that cash should not be the sole measure of people's wealth. He pointed out that many people in Sarawak own land, and land is considered as their assets.
The Sarawak Chief Minister must accept the fact that Sarawak is indeed a high-income state. However, the distribution of wealth is concentrated among only 10% of the Sarawak population who have close connections with the political leaders in the state. Abang Johari also claims that the statistics released by the federal government are misleading, but this is not accurate. Official statistics issued by the government are undoubtedly based on international standards.
We, the people of Sarawak, question whether during the decades of rule by PBB/GPS, the government has surveyed and granted land to the people. How is it possible for the people to own land when the Sarawak government does not recognize the ownership of NCR (Native Customary Rights) land that has not been surveyed?
