Kulleh Selong, villager of Long Bangan Belaga
*Deputy Minister Linked to Encroaching Logging Companies*
Two months ago, residents of Belanga Long Bangan village discovered that their customary land had been encroached upon by two logging companies, namely MM Golden and UU Green Sdn Bhd. According to the villagers' investigation through the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM), Deputy Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change, Huang Tiong Sii, is the owner of MM Golden, holding 99.5 percent of the shares, while his child holds 0.5 percent.
Although Huang Tiong Sii announced on December 6, 2022, that he was no longer a director of MM Golden, it has been found that he is the owner. The villagers of Long Bangan reported the incident two months ago and also lodged a complaint with the local government, requesting a thorough investigation. However, after waiting for a considerable time, they have yet to receive a response.
Today, they once again went to the SG Asap police station to file a report and, accompanied by the police, proceeded to the logging site where both logging companies were observed operating. The police also accompanied them to the camp site to request a meeting with the manager of MM Golden, in order to ask for evidence. However, the manager was not present.
He mentioned that the police advised the villagers to negotiate with the personnel from the logging companies first before filing an official report.
