John Brian, Permanent Chairman of the PBDS Party
*PBB Sarawak control the politics and economy of Sarawak*
Today, Borneo Post reported that TA ANN Holding has received a 30-year lease renewal. Hamed Sepawi, the Executive Chairman of TA ANN, stated that this renewal signifies significant recognition of our efforts in sustainable forest management. TA ANN manages the logging areas of FMU Song-Kapit, FMU Pasin, and FMU Raplex. All three logging areas have obtained forest management certification under the Malaysian Timber Certification Scheme (MTCS), accredited by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).
John said, "This confirms what I said yesterday, that Sarawak is ruled by crony capitalism. Hamed Sepawi is the cousin of TYT Taib Mahmud. He is a proxy for Taib Mahmud. He is the Treasurer-General of PBB/GPS and also the CEO of SEB. He is also the Executive Chairman of TA ANN Holding. This explains how the leaders of PBB Sarawak control the politics and economy of Sarawak. I want to ask, what benefits have the locals in Kapit and Song gained from the logging activities of TA ANN? Song is among the poorest districts in Malaysia. Has the company contributed to CSR projects such as building schools, roads, providing clean water, or supplying free electricity? After earning millions in profits from logging for decades?" "
John hope the voters realize that although Sarawak shows economic growth and results, it is being plundered by political rulers and wealthy tycoons who will continue to control Sarawak's economy even after their deaths. Their cronies will carry on the same practices.
John explained that his PBDS party leadership will collaborate with PH in the upcoming state elections, and he hopes the people of Sarawak realize that PBB and GPS are not the right choices.
