Villagers with houses need not move to ‘Rumah Mesra Rakyat’ — Abg Johari
Posted on October 31, 2010, Sunday
KUCHING: Sungai Midin villagers yesterday finally received good news from Minister of Housing and Urban Development Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg about their land titles.
Abang Johari told them during a visit to the Rumah Mesra Rakyat (RMR) project site here that the government would not force villagers who already have houses to move to RMR houses in the village as initially feared.
They would be allowed to continue staying in their present houses.
“The government is concerned about the people’s plight. If a house (in the village) is already nicely built, let it be. Just give (the owner) the land title,” he said to the applause of the villagers.
Abang Johari said the government is always open to suggestions or criticisms for the sake of the people.
But the people, he said, must acknowledge that no problems could be settled if the mind is being controlled by anger.
“If we are angry, who wants to sit down and talk with us,” he said.
He disclosed that the government has bigger plan in store for the village that would take about ten years to complete.
“We plan to turn the village into a good neighbourhood with basic amenities that would enable the children to grow up in a good environment,” he said, adding that he had personal experiences in resettlement exercises involving a few villages, among them, Kampung Lada Pedas and Kampung Semerah Padi.
He stressed that what the government is doing in Kampung Sungai Midin is not a resettlement exercise but merely village extension.
Earlier, Samariang assemblywoman Sharifah Hasidah Sayeed Aman Ghazali urged the villagers not to be tricked by instigators who are only trying to worsen their situation.
“All of us should work together to solve any problem (in the village) and not be swayed by those who only turn up during a crisis and later disappear,” she said.
She added that the RMR project, where piling work would commence today, and which will require RM5.56 million to build 52 houses, is proof that the government is listening to the people.
“If you have any problem, you can see me… we can discuss (about the problem) and solve it regardless is the challenges,” she said.
Hasidah added it was not the government’s style to give empty promises just to fish for votes from the villagers.
She stressed that the government is concerned with the wellbeing of the rakyat as well as their offspring and would make serious attempt to give opportunities to these young or future generation to grow up in a pleasant environment.
Deputy Minister of Housing and Urban Development Datuk Dr Soon Choon Teck and Deputy Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation Datuk Fadillah Yusuf were also present.

ReplyDeleteBerkemungkinan pemimpin yang dimaksudkan oleh penulis diatas adalah seorang yang kurang pintar dan jenis yang mudah dimanipulasi. Inilah antara tabiat orang yang tidak cerdik, mudah dan cepat lupa!.
ReplyDeletetok la nama politik. kesetiaan ya nomor duak. yang penting, kuasa. semua orang politik kedak ya. jangan nak nyalah ahli politik dari utara ya jak. mun nak salah, salah semua.
ReplyDelete1. Alhamdullilah selesailah sudah bab pemasalahan penduduk di Kpg Sg Midin.Ini jelas menunjukkan pemimpin muda dan 'senior' saling berganding bahu menolong rakyat setempat.
ReplyDelete2. Kepada pengkritik yang selama ini hanya tahu mencari kesalahan orang sekarang 'tepuk dada tanya selera'. Mana Anwar, Dominigue Ng, Wan Zainal dan mana-mana pemimpin PKR yang hanya tahu menggunakan isu-isu pemasalahan rakyat utk memancing sokongan. Tiada tempat untuk PKR dan PAS di Sarawak.
bukan berganding bahu nak nulung rakyat tapi berganding bahu nak menyelamat kedudukan. mun hasidah sik di tulung oleh abang jo, sapa lagik nak nulung nya? fadilah? mun hasidah kalah, sapa nak diharap nyokong abang jo? fadilah?

Pok tahu juak u crita pasal Junior Officer dari Pertanian diangkat jadi YB. Takut balit kpg bila mula-mula jadi YB. Ne ndak takut diminta orang kampung derma tok derma ya. Bang Joe juak rekomen dengan Abang sorang gik berik director allowance untuk pakey nya balit kampung tapi ya lah bak melepas asuk tersepit akibatnya makan tuan.
