Dennis Along, PKR Baram Communications Director
*Injustice in Sarawak: The Fight Against the Carbon Trading Bill*
Sarawak's Deputy Minister of Energy and Environmental Sustainability, Dr. Hazland Abang Hipni said that only owners of NCR land that have been gazetted are eligible for a carbon trading license. According to Dennis- this is GPS's tactic of denying the rights of the Natives and Dayaks of Sarawak to be involved in an industry worth billions of ringgit. Throughout Baram, Apoh-Tutoh, Marudi up to Mulu. Not a single acre of Baram residents' NCR land is gazetted. On the other hand, logging companies that destroy the environment (Samling) are given a carbon trading license by the GPS Sarawak Government. Dennis urged the people of Sarawak to realize that since the beginning the policy of the Sarawak BN government and now the GPS is pressuring the Indigenous/Dayak people to remain poor so that they are easy to manipulate. Dennis asked the public to protest the Carbon trading and Land Affairs Bill that will be tabled in the Sarawak state assembly this November. Which it will definitely not favor the Dayak people. For 60 years the Orang Asal/Dayak have been pleading for their NCR land to be gazetted and given a title deed. However, this request could not be fulfilled by the GPS Sarawak government. On the other hand, PL and logging concessions of hundreds of hectares were given to foreigners who came from Sibu, Miri, Bintulu, Kuching and even some companies from Malaya were also given PL.
