Urai Wan, Residents of Long Bedian Village, Baram.
*What is Green Hydrogen? Dennis Ngau didn’t explain to the villagers*
On 29 Feb 2024, the Borneo Post reported that Rumah Panjang Long Bedian will be the first longhouse to use electricity sourced from green hydrogen power - the first in the country. Yb Dennis Ngau, Telang Usan assemblyman stated that the green hydrogen project will be implemented in Long Bedian and this will benefit the people there.
Green hydrogen is a new energy source capable of producing cheap and clean electricity. That is according to Dennis Ngau.
However, Urai Wan was surprised by Dennis Ngau's statement. Dennis Ngau is indeed from the village of Long Bedian but he never said anything or gave an explanation to the villagers regarding the green hydrogen project.
Urai Wan said that, Dennis Ngau should have told them first before speaking to the media. According to Urai Wan, the residents of Long Bedian currently use solar energy and are charged RM100 to RM200 per month based on usage, this project is called Sarawak alternative rural electrification scheme (SARES).
But still, Urai Wan emphasize that, Denis Ngau must explain to the villagers first. Is green hydrogen really safe and cheap? They don't want the Tutoh Dam to be built. It will drown the village of Long Bedian - Said Urai. I have visited Bakun and the people there are much poorer than before the dam was built. Only 3 acres of land was given by the government for one family and no more after more than 25 years. We are protesting the construction of the Tutoh dam.
