EXCLUSIVE: The celebrated longhouse chief Nor Anak Nyawai speaks to RFS.

Posted: 03 Dec 2013 04:48 AM PST

RFS begins the show with a scathing commentary from Christina Suntai on the corruption, cronyism and nepotism of the Taib family. Our DJs Stanley Rentap and Michael Ngau are having a field day interviewing various commentators. Agnes from Dijih eloquently and succinctly suggests that Dayak Ministers James Masing and William Mawan are fully cognizant of the fact that many Dayaks are now opposing the National Front-led Government simply because they have lost the trust of the Dayak community which expects them to protect ancestral Dayak lands; which both Ministers have failed to do. Celebrated longhouse chieftain Nor Anak Nyawai who is Sarawak's equivalent of Australia's Mabo graces the air with his measured and tempered tones on why the First Nation peoples of Sarawak must do all they can to preserve their rights over ancestral lands. The Rt. Hon. Terrence Siambun from Sabah raises the issue of the building of a RM3.2 billion dam which will affect nine villages, nine churches and displace 2,000 residents in the Penampang region. We end the show with our daily news-belt brought to you by newshound Indai Selaka.

Documentari dari Christina Suntai mengenai Ketua Menteri Sarawak Abdul Taib Mahmud yang memperkayakan keluarga, saudara dan kroni-kroni politik dalam Barisan Nasional dengan cara merampas dan menjual tanah kepada syarikat untuk mengaut keuntungan berlipat kali ganda seperti yang telah dirakam oleh Global Witness. Puan Agnes dari Dijih, Mukah mengulas bagaimana YB Tan Sri Dr. James Jemut Masing dan Tan Sri William Mawan Ikom sedar bahawa masyarakat Dayak menentang Barisan Nasional disebabkan penindasan dan rampasan tanah yang berleluasa berlaku di Sarawak kerana kelemahan mereka sendiri. Menurut Tuai Rumah Nor Ak Nyawai rakyat harus sedar betapa pentingnya hak keatas tanah pusaka untuk generasi akan datang, beliau mengingatkan rakyat harus sedar dengan keadaan politik semasa haruslah memilih calon dan parti yang serius mempertahankan hak rakyat pada pilihanraya negeri akan datang. Bukan sahaja di Sarawak bantahan pembinaan empangan berlaku. Ini juga berlaku di Sabah apabila YB Terrence Siambun mengetuai penduduk Penampang membantah pembinaan empangan yang menelan belanja RM 3.2 billion. Ini akan menenggelamkan sembilan buah kampung, sembilan buah gereja dan 2000 penduduk akan terjejas. Berita pendek dari Indai Selaka, dengarkan semuanya hanya di Radio Free Sarawak.
