Radio Free Sarawak, responding to popular demand, is back on air today to keep folk abreast of vital developments since GE13, where Sarawak’s rural seats again kept BN in power, despite the landslide against the government in West Malaysia.
We look at the Baram election petition – how was that seat lost in the face of huge popular concern over Taib’s dam plans and why was the case thrown out on a technicality?
And the shocking reversal of the judgement in favour of the native land owners at Long Teran, thrown off their territories by IOI/Pelita. The company and state government had appealed against compensating the people who lost their livelihoods!
There is comment from veteran broadcaster Christina Suntai and much more tonight and all week from your favourite team at RFS.
