SARAWAK LIVE: Bukit Goram

Majoriti penduduk Bukit Goram belum nikmati elektrik

KUCHING: Majoriti penduduk terutama di rumah panjang dalam kawasan Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Bukit Goram di Kapit masih belum menikmati bekalan elektrik 24 jam.

Masalah ini dibangkitkan oleh Jefferson Jamit Unyat (BN-Bukit Goram) dalam ucapan bahasnya pada Persidangan Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) di Kompleks DUN di sini, semalam.

Sehubungan itu, Jefferson mencadangkan kepada kerajaan supaya menggandakan usaha untuk menyalurkan bekalan elektrik 24 jam kepada penduduk yang terlibat.

“Bukan sahaja masalah bekalan elektrik, malah majoriti penduduk dalam kawasan Bukit Goram masih kekurangan dari segi teknologi maklumat dan komunikasi terutama di luar bandar.

“Lebih menyedihkan apabila masih ada kawasan yang tidak diliputi dengan talian telekomunikasi apatah lagi Internet dan jalur lebar (WiFi).

“Justeru, saya menggesa agensi yang berkaitan agar menyediakan fasiliti telekomunikasi yang lebih baik ke kawasan saya Bukit Goram,” katanya.

Dalam perkembangan berkaitan, Jefferson berkata penduduk di Kapit menanti kerja-kerja pembinaan Jalan Kapit/Song/Kanowit untuk disiapkan.

Sebaik kerja-kerja pembinaan jalan ini siap kelak ia akan menghubungkan Kapit dengan pekan-pekan lain dalam negeri ini.

Sehubungan itu, Jefferson menggesa kerajaan untuk mempercepatkan kerja-kerja pembinaan Jalan Kapit/Song/Kanowit demi kepentingan rakyat secara keseluruhannya.

John dalam perbahasannya semalam, turut menyuarakan kebimbangan dengan peluang penyertaan golongan belia dari Bukit Goram dalam pembangunan sosioekonomi negara.

“Terdapat banyak institusi vokasional dan latihan diwujudkan bagi memenuhi keperluan belia terutama di kawasan luar bandar.

“Bagaimanapun, di Kapit hanya terdapat sebuah GIATMARA yang tidak mencukupi dan perlu ditambah dengan membina sebuah kolej vokasional.

“Bukit Goram adalah dalam Koridor Tenaga Diperbaharui Sarawak (SCORE) yang dikatakan bahawa banyak tenaga kerja mahir dan separa mahir diperlukan.

“Bagaimanapun tanpa institut latihan kemahiran, belia luar bandar kita tidak dapat terlibat dalam peluang pekerjaan,” katanya.-Utusan Borneo

Sng adamant in contesting Bukit Goram

KUCHING: Sarawak Workers Party (SWP) president Larry Sng is adamant in standing at Bukit Goram despite a possible challenge from PBB.

The reason: The Sng family is deep-rooted in the area. Sng believed that although he was not with the ruling coalition anymore, he could still deliver projects and services to the people as proven by the family’s long service to the various communities there.

“I have served the people here for two terms (2001-2011) and my father before me (1991-2001) and his father before him (1963-1968),” said Sng in a press statement received here yesterday.

He said even when the family was with Parti Bansa Dayak Sarawak (PBDS) which was then in the opposition, his family delivered projects to many longhouses and associations in the constituency.

“We funded the construction of Rumah Tubak, Nanga Ensilai, when it was burnt down in the 90s and together with the people, made it the best longhouse in Sarawak.

“We also donated RM200,000 from our own funds towards the construction of SJK (C) Hock Lam School when they needed a new building block.”

He also said when he was no more an elected representative he had donated to over 60 longhouse and associations in Kapit since 2014.

“We continue to provide our education fund (RM1,000,000) and assistance towards the sick and families of the dead. This is proof that even if we are not in the government we can still deliver projects and services to the people and for the people. Make no mistake the people want us to continue to serve them.”

In the face of possible PBB’s challenge in Bukit Goram, Sng said he would not give up and surrender the seat to them.

“Those in PBB have been my friends and some are still my friends in politics. But I cannot give up and surrender my home town of Kapit (Bukit Goram) and supporters because of that,” said Sng

Bukit Goram is the new constituency carved out of Baleh and Pelagus seats where Sng used to be the assemblyman.

As Baleh and Pelagus are both allocated to PRS, Bukit Goram is expected to be claimed by the party (PBB). PRS president Tan Sri Dr James Masing, to the surprise of many, however, gave up Bukit Goram for Samalaju.

Rumours have been rife that PBB will take Bukit Goram and a political secretary to the chief minister Jefferson Jamit Unyat is said to be their potential candidate.-Borneo Post

Ex-Pelagus rep now eyes newly-created Bukit Goram

KAPIT: Sarawak Workers Party (SWP) president Larry Sng has confirmed his interest in the new Bukit Goram constituency in the next state election.

The former Pelagus assemblyman stated this during a ‘Gong Xi Fa Cai’ buffet dinner at the residence of Kong Sien Siong near Jalan Bletih/Jalan Sungai Yong here on Thursday, which also hosted the villagers from Kampung Cina Bletih.

“Don’t doubt my sincerity – my mind is 100 per cent with the Kapit folk. My service has been continuous since the very first day I joined politics in 2011. Till today, I’m still the same Larry – although I’m no longer in the government, my service to you remains uninterrupted because I’ve you in my mind. I’d be very happy to be able to serve you within my means, if given the chance.

“In the coming election, I’m going to contest in Bukit Goram. I appeal to you to continue supporting me as you’d done before. Give me the chance to serve you,” he told those present.

Larry also said as far as Kampung Cina Bletih was concerned, he had worked very hard for the people there. He recalled the resettlement of villagers from what was known as KampungCina Oi Leong Sun near Jalan Airport here following the landslide tragedy that claimed four lives in 2007.

“It was through our efforts (in Sng’s capacity as the Assistant Minister in Chief Minister’s Department then), we managed to convince the Land and Survey Department to expedite the distribution of TOLs (Temporary Occupation of Land) in this area.

“Now, I’m very happy that the resettlement has become a good neighbourhood for the Chinese community – just next to a Malay community. I’m very happy to see that they are living in harmony with each other and also, to know that this was my work.

“Moreover, we also came up with aid for the villagers following the 2007 landslide. If I’m not mistaken, my family and mother-in-law raised RM100,000 – the proceeds from which were meant to help the people at that time.”

On this year’s Chinese New Year celebration, Sng regretted that he could not conduct his usual round of visits this time around.

“Due to time constraints, I could not pay any visit to the open house gatherings here, which is a pity because these events would allow me to meet everybody and share the festive joy.

“Still, I would want to take the opportunity to wish all of you good health, happiness, luck and prosperity in the years ahead,” he said.-THE BORNEO POST

PRS to support BN candidate in Bukit Goram — Masing

KAPIT: Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) has declared that its members will support whoever is chosen as the Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for Bukit Goram during the upcoming state election.

PRS president Tan Sri Datuk Amar Dr James Masing said the party expects the same support from other BN component parties for PRS’ seats.

“The upcoming election is not a by-election, it is state election. It is not just an election for Murum or Bukit Goram — it is for 82 seats across the state. The people must discard the negative culture of stabbing in the back, but instead support each other,” he said during the launching of the Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Bukit Goram operations room on Monday.

He explained that PRS had asked Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Adenan Satem for two of the new seats and were allocated Murum and Samalaju.

“I don’t know which party Bukit Goram was allocated to. If Bukit Goram goes to PBB, it’s still BN. We (PRS) will

support PBB in Bukit Goram and they will support us in Murum,” he said.

Masing pointed out that Adenan wants to see genuine cooperation among BN component parties.

“In any election, there isn’t a sure win. No one can tell who’s the winner. However, one thing for sure when PBB, PRS, SPDP (Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party) and SUPP (Sarawak United People’s Party) work together, no one can disrupt us in the rural area,” he stressed.

He called on Kapit folk to ensure they vote for the BN candidate.

“The future of Kapit cannot just depend on (Kapit Member of Parliament) Datuk Alexander (Nanta Linggi) and myself. BN needs a strong team to transform Kapit,” added Masing, pointing out that Pelagus has lagged behind under the opposition over the last five years.

Meanwhile, PBB Bukit Goram pro tem chairman Jefferson Jamit Unyat — a political secretary to the Chief Minister — said BN must win all the Kapit seats of Baleh, Pelagus and Bukit Goram to show solid support for Adenan.

“In Pelagus, PBB is all ready to assist PRS to capture the seat. Likewise, I appeal to PRS in Bukit Goram to support the BN candidate so that Pelagus and Bukit Goram belong to BN,” he said.

He pointed out that BN’s strength comes from the grassroots.

“When all BN components work together, we’ve demonstrated our strength and unity. Then no one could disrupt our constituencies in rural areas,” he added. - Borneo Post
