Kenyataan Naib Ketua Pemuda PBB Sarawak Pandi Suhaili

(merujuk kepada 

'' PBB Bengoh veep says Mambong MP has right to voice his concern " 

- The Borneo Post)

Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak merasakan ianya satu laporan yang nakal apabila mengatakan seorang wakil rakyat Barisan Nasional akan digugurkan atas sebab menyatakan pendirian keatas sesuatu perkara bagi kepentingan rakyat dikawasan wakil rakyat tersebut.

Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak beranggapan laporan dibuat dengan tujuan untuk memberi gambaran yang negatif keatas Barisan Nasional agar rakyat percaya Kerajaan Barisan Nasional tidak bersikap berfikiran terbuka dalam menangani masalah rakyat.

Setiap wakil rakyat Barisan Nasional patut dan mesti bersuara untuk rakyat dikawasan mereka tanpa mengira sama ada masalah tersebut dihadapi oleh penyokong Barisan Nasional ataupun pembangkang.

Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak beranggapan ahli Parlimen Mambong Datuk Dr James Dawos Mamit telah melakukan satu perkara yang betul dengan menyatakan pendirian beliau berhubung dengan isu pembalakkan dikawasan beliau.

Berhubung dengan keputusan sama ada beliau akan dikekalkan atau digugurkan, ianya adalah satu isu yang lain.

Parti Barisan Nasional akan mengambil kira semua faktor yang berkaitan apabila mengambil kira sama ada wakil rakyat akan dikekalkan atau digugurkan.

Apa jua keputusan yang diambil, ianya adalah untuk faedah rakyat di kawasan yang terbabit.

Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak amat berharap tidak ada lagi pihak yang cuba membuat spekulasi nakal terhadap mana-mana wakil rakyat PBB, khasnya, dan Barisan Nasional, amnya.

Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak juga amat berharap rakyat tidak mudah untuk terpedaya dengan spekulasi nakal seperti ini.

Sekian. Terimakasih.

PBB Bengoh veep says Mambong MP has right to voice his concern

Posted on August 25, 2012, Saturday

KUCHING: PBB Bengoh branch vice chief Munded Banat yesterday came out in support of Mambong MP Datuk Dr James Dawos Mamit whom sources said might be dropped in the 13th general election.

Yesterday, a tabloid said speculations were rife that Dawos, who is also Deputy Tourism Minister, would be replaced after he openly criticised the Forest Department last June over a logging issue at the Bengoh Resettlement Scheme.

The tabloid added that some BN leaders were unhappy and had approached a few individuals to find out if they were interested to stand in Mambong.

Munded said what Dawos highlighted was right because the logging area had been gazetted as a water catchment area.

“Dawos is right to voice his concern as the area has been gazetted as a water catchment area and yet there is a licence to carry out logging activities in the same area,” said Munded when contacted yesterday.

He added that Dawos was merely speaking the truth when he pointed an accusing finger at the Forestry Department.

“Dawos is compelled to voice his concern as an elected representative and after receiving many complaints from the people in the affected areas.

“If he (Dawos) doesn’t speak up, the people in the constituency will say that he is not doing his job or is hiding something.”

However, Dawos, when contacted, declined to comment, except to say “let the people speak and judge for themselves”.

When the logging issue was brought up in June, state PKR chief Baru Bian had commented then that it was important for leaders to be truthful and voiced the wishes of the people.

“The emergence of voices such as that of Datuk Dr James Dawos who took the Forestry Department to task for issuing the timber licences in the Bengoh Resettlement area is an encouraging sign that the voices of the people cannot be silenced,” Baru was quoted as saying then.
