TAHNIAH Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah diatas perlantikan sebagai Presiden Saberkas

MIRI - Menteri Pelancongan, Kesenian, Kebudayaan, Belia dan Sukan Sarawak, Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah dilantik sebagai Presiden Pertubuhan Belia Kebangsaan Bersatu Sarawak (Saberkas) yang baharu hari ini (19 Sept 2020).

Beliau menggantikan Ketua Menteri, Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg yang enggan dicalonkan semula sebagai Presiden pada mesyuarat agung tiga tahun sekali (TGM) ke-16 organisasi itu di sini.

Saberkas adalah organisasi belia terbesar di negeri ini dengan lebih 44,500 ahli.

“Ia adalah amanah dan tanggungjawab berat yang harus dipikul kerana penubuhan Saberkas melibatkan belia kita yang memerlukan bimbingan daripada pemimpin agar mereka menjadi generasi pemimpin masa depan,” katanya dalam kenyataan di sini hari ini.

Membantu pemimpin PSB umpama melepaskan anjing tersepit, sudah lepas dia menggigit.

Ahli Majlis Tertinggi PBB Pandi Suhaili berpandangan tindakan membantu kepimpinan tertinggi PSB umpama melepaskan anjing tersepit, sudah lepas dia menggigit.

Menurut beliau, Ketua Menteri Sarawak Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg telah berusaha sebaik mungkin untuk membantu kepimpinan PSB ketika mereka berselisih dengan kepimpinan komponen parti GPS.

“Abang Jo cuba untuk mencari titik tengah yang dapat mendamaikan kedua-dua pihak dengan harapan ia akan memberi manfaat kepada kestabilan politik Sarawak.

Nazri mesti minta maaf dengan Karim, Fadilah dan rakyat Sarawak

Saya terpanggil untuk mengulas sekali lagi tentang isu cukai pelancongan yang kini menyaksikan Datuk Nazri Aziz, yang mengaku samseng besar, bertindak menghina Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah dan Datuk Seri Fadilah Yusuf.

Sebelum ini, penghinaan hanya dilemparkan kepada Karim seorang.

Tetapi apabila Fadilah membela Karim, beliau turut diperlekehkan oleh Nazri.

Nazri yang samseng yang tak jantan berdepan Mahathir

Keceluparan Menteri Pelancongan dan Budaya Datuk Nazri Abdul Aziz memang sudah diketahui umum.

Beliau seorang yang suka 'bergaduh' dengan ramai pihak tanpa mengira sama ada pihak tersebut adalah rakan dalam BN ataupun tidak.

Seolah-olah beliau sentiasa mengambil pendekatan bersifat peribadi dalam menangani semua hal.

Perpaduan utuh pelbagai kaum di Sarawak sukar digugat oleh elemen ektrimis

Setiap ahli masyarakat bertanggungjawab ubtuk memastikan elemen perkauman melampau dalam masyarakat masing-masing dibendung ketahap yang akan menjamin kestabilan dan keharmonian di Sarawak.

Sarawak sebagai sebuah negeri yang kaya dengan sumber asli berpotensi untuk membawa anak-anak Sarawak ke era yang gilang gemilang yang memberi kemakmuran kepada semua.

Malangnya ini tidak akan tercapai sekiranya kita memejamkan mata kita apabila ada suara-suara sumbang yang cuba mempengaruhi kita agar mengambil pendekatan melampau dalam menjalani kehidupan bersama-sama dengan masyarakat lain.

Cuba bayangkan apa yang akan terjadi sekiranya semua masyarakat di Bumi Kenyalang gagal mengawal puak pelampau dalam kelompok mereka?

Sudah tentu ini akan mengundang kekacauan yang menyusahkan semua ahli masyarakat!

BETONG: Muslims in the state are urged to be moderate in practising their religion as there is no place for extremism in the state with its multi-religious society.

The call was made by Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud at the state-level Maulidur Rasul celebration at Tan Sri Datuk Amar Stephen Kalong Ningkan hall here yesterday.

He added that moderation would create conducive environment in every facet of life as the people could complement each other’s need and accommodate differing views.

KUCHING: Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud has called on bloggers to play their part in protecting both state and national interests.

He pointed out bloggers have an important role to play in the face of the constant propaganda being churned out against the state and its development programmes.

“I’d love to see more bloggers who are not someone who repeat what the international people say. To me, bloggers are not a nuisance. They are part of our development to protect our interests. If you (bloggers) can do that, we are safe,” he said.

Kenyataan Naib Ketua Pemuda PBB Sarawak Pandi Suhaili

03hb Ogos 2012

(merujuk kepada  '' Abdul Karim explains his tiff with Dr Teo "  

&  " Dr Teo’s side of the story " - The Borneo Post)

Adalah tidak wajar untuk Pengerusi PKR Miri Dr. Michael Teo menuntut agar Menteri Muda Belia YB Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah meminta maaf kepada beliau.

Ini adalah kerana YB Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah bukannya melabelkan beliau sebagai bodoh, tetapi soalan yang dikemukakan beliau sebagai bodoh.

Ini diakui sendiri oleh Dr. Michael Teo.

Oleh itu, Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak merasakan tuntutan minta maaf ini sebagai satu tindakkan yang menunjukkan Dr. Michael Teo berusaha untuk memancing simpati dari rakyat dengan cuba untuk mengeksploitasi insiden tersebut seolah-olah beliau adalah mangsa dalam insiden tersebut.

Tetapi beliau sendiri mengakui bahawa label bodoh tersebut ditujukan oleh soalan beliau dan bukan beliau.

Pada masa yang sama, Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak amat memahami situasi yang dialami oleh YB Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah hingga menyebabkan beliau begitu marah sekali.

Politik provokasi ialah strategi politik pembangkang yang diguna pakai dari dulu hingga sekarang.

Apa yang hendak dicapai melalui politik provokasi ini ialah bukannya kebenaran, tetapi 'kesilapan' yang hendak dieksploitasi.

Pemimpin Barisan Nasional diprovokasi agar mereka marah sehingga mereka gagal menjawab pertuduhan (bukannya pertanyaan) melampau dengan jawapan yang sepatutnya.

Apabila pemimpin Barisan Nasional 'tersilap' tutur kata atau perbuatan akibat dari perasaan marah, pihak pembangkang kemudiannya akan menggunakan 'kesilapan' tersebut sebagai 'jawapan' kepada pertuduhan melampau yang telah mereka lemparkan.

Sekiranya benar, para pembangkang mencari kebenaran, dan bukannya kesilapan, strategi politik provokasi sepatutnya tidak digunapakai.

Tetapi apa yang kita lihat, rata-rata pemimpin pembangkang, baik di Semenanjung ataupun Sarawak, menggunakan strategi politik provokasi.

Penggunaan strategi politik provokasi ini sudah jelas menunjukkan bahawa pemimpin pembangkang bukannya berminat untuk mencari kebenaran kerana sekiranya kebenaran yang dicari, mereka tidak akan menang sebarang kerusi di Sarawak.

Sekiranya apa yang diperkatakan ini tidak benar, Pergerakkan Pemuda PBB Sarawak mencabar semua pemimpin pembangkang, terutamanya di Sarawak, agar membuktikan bahawa dakwaan ini tidak benar dengan menggantikan strategi politik provokasi dengan strategi politik 'gentleman'.

Sekiranya pihak pembangkang enggan membuang strategi politik provokasi jauh-jauh, ini hanya membawa satu makna sahaja - iaitu pihak pembangkang sebenarnya tidak berminat dengan kebenaran tetapi berminat untuk memanipulasi keadaan untuk mendapat simpati dari rakyat agar rakyat memberi mandat kepada mereka.

Sungguh licik Pakatan Rakyat !!!

Sekian. Terimakasih.

Fracas over postal votes at EC briefing

The Star - Fracas over postal votes at EC briefing

August 02, 2012

TICKED OFF: A file photo of the commotion during the EC question and
answer session on Wednesday.

KUCHING: A brief fracas broke out between PKR’s Dr Michael Teo and Assistant Housing Minister Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah during a question and answer session at the Election Commission briefing here yesterday.

The incident erupted when Dr Teo claimed that the postal votes cast by uniformed personnel could be manipulated if the ballot boxes were not placed at the tallying centres after the voting process as it might lead to vote tampering.

This led to Abdul Karim retorting the claims by saying that Dr Teo was raising a stupid question.

An argument then ensued between them before Abdul Karim and his PBB colleagues walked out of the conference room.

The briefing was held to update political parties and media representatives on the latest election rules which will be implemented in the coming general election.

Later, Abdul Karim told reporters that it was wrong for Dr Teo to make an allegation.

“It was a question and answer session after the briefing and Dr Teo should have just asked relevant questions.

“It’s unfair for him to make that kind of unfounded allegation. So, after a brief argument with him, we just left the conference room,” he said.

State PKR chairman Baru Bian when contacted declined to comment on the matter.

Dr Teo contested in last year’s state election where he lost to SUPP’s Datuk Lee Kim Shin by a razor thin 58-vote majority.

KUCHING: Brooke Dockyard and Engineering Works Corporation needs a detailed expansion plan in order to become a more prominent player in the engineering and petroleum-related industry.

Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud, who said this, believed there is a place in the Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy (SCORE) for the corporation.

But the size of the economic cake it could take from SCORE depended very much on its future planning and restructuring exercise, said Taib at the 100th anniversary dinner of Brooke Dockyard at the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) on Friday.

‘Group trying to bring in Umno is power crazy’

Posted on May 17, 2011, Tuesday

KUCHING: PBB vice Youth chief Pandi Suhaili describes those who attempt to bring Umno into Sarawak as power crazy.

He pointed out that this group of people was attempting to destablise politics in the state, hoping that when Umno comes in, they will stand to gain.

“If we are to look at the political scenario, there is no reason at all for Umno to come in…we are okay.

“However, regardless of this, we continue to hear claims by certain people who said they are trying to bring Umno into Sarawak because the state needs Umno.

“Does the state, which currently enjoys political stability, really need Umno or are they the ones who actually need Umno for their own self-interest?” asked Pandi when commenting on the statement made by the chief political secretary to the chief minister Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah last Saturday that certain parties wanted to paint a bad picture about Sarawak to draw attention to themselves.

Tindakan sedemikian dikhuatiri akan mendorong perpecahan parti

KUCHING: Dakwaan perpecahan dalam Pemuda PBB tidak wajar dijadikan sebagai alat untuk melabelkan wujud kumpulan penyokong Ketua Pemuda Datuk Fadillah Yusof dan kumpulan penyokong Presiden Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud dalam parti tersebut.

Naib Presiden PBB Datuk Daud Abdul Rahman berkata, tindakan sedemikian juga dikhuatiri akan mendorong ke arah perpecahan di kalangan ahli dan sekali gus menyebabkan parti menuju kehancuran.

“Janganlah kita memecahbelahkan (dengan melabelkan) ada yang sokong Fadillah ada yang sokong Ketua Menteri.

Ketua Menteri terlalu tinggi. Fadillah terlalu kecil untuk dibandingkan dengan YAB Ketua Menteri,” katanya ketika diminta mengulas dakwaan wujud perpecahan di kalangan ahli-ahli Pemuda PBB, di ibu pejabat parti itu di sini, semalam.

Isu itu timbul apabila Fadillah gagal mengeluarkan kenyataan mempertahankan Taib ketika dikritik oleh Ketua Pemuda UMNO Khairy Jamaluddin dan beberapa pemimpin komponen BN di Semenanjung Malaysia dan Sabah.

KUCHING: Chief Political Secretary to the Chief Minister, Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah praised the Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Youth wing for lodging a police report against Radio Free Sarawak.

He said the movement had done a justified act because its members were trying to fight an evil cause aimed at creating disunity among the ‘rakyat’.

“It is my hope that Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), Home Ministry (KDN) and police would investigate and (subsequently) take action against those involved,” he said when met during the BN Convention at the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) yesterday.

He pointed out that all parties should be united in protecting the racial harmony that is being enjoyed by all.

The PBB youth wing led by its youth vice chief Pandi Suhaili lodged a police report against the radio station at the Simpang Tiga Police station last Friday.

Posted on March 5, 2011, Saturday

KUCHING: Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Youth is urging the police to take action against Radio Free Sarawak if investigation shows it has violated the country’s Sedition Act.

The Malaysia Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) should also take action against the radio station if it is operating without a valid licence.

The party’s vice-Youth chief Pandi Suhaili said they decided to lodge a police report after Deputy Minister of Information, Communication and Culture Datuk Joseph Salang said MCMC could take action against the radio station.

“We hope the authorities take harsh action against the radio station because it is causing the rakyat to feel uneasy with the content of its broadcasting, which we understand is instigating them to hate the government,” he said when met at Simpang Tiga Police Station yesterday.

He added that the peace and harmony enjoyed by the rakyat were under threat from the radio station said to be operating illegally in the country.
