Robert Lau on Engkilili State Assemblyman Janicol Rayong
Robert Lau Hui Yew statement
I take issue with Engkilili State Assemblyman, YB Janicol Rayong. He seemed to be speaking for UPP Sibu but in his capacity as UPP Youth Chief. How strange! The last I heard about him politically was after last year State election when he attempted to rejoin BN via PBB.
He had resigned from UPP in order to contest under the BN banner with the promise to the then Chief Minister, the late Tan Sri Adenan Satem, that he would join a BN component party. So far he has not honour his promise.
I am baffled by his remark about coming up with a 5-year plan for Sibu. Does he not realise that his party chief is the head of Sibu visionary team since 1999 as well as another UPP Adun is heading Sibu Municipal Council for more than a decade. Did he ever show concern for Sibu by asking his seniors what have they done for Sibu all these while?
YB Rayong should be asking his seniors why the young people are leaving the town. He is still the UPP youth head AND should be the leading voice of the youth even though he is well past 55. That speaks volume about the party that continues to pay lip services of giving opportunity to the younger generation.
The lack of opportunities for the young is even more acute in smaller towns and rural areas. Engkilili is no exception. YB Rayong is a 3-term YB for Engkilili. My question for him is what has he done after all these years for his anak biak? Has he ever come up with any 5 year plan for his constituency?
I had in 2009 wrote what needed to be done for Sibu in view of the decline of the main stay of Sibu economy, the timber industry. The view I stated then was revised in 2014 and they still stand except that I believe the sun has now set for the timber industry in Sibu. My writings are still available on my Facebook post.
We need to go back to basics and work on our advantages which consist of our plenty of uncultivated land, educated population and stable government. Another advantage that has been added is affordable electricity.

砂拉越人民联合党中央秘书长拿督陈超耀律师谨以沉痛的心情,深切哀悼已故前砂拉越副首席部长兼砂拉越人民联合党前主席拿督巴丁宜丹斯里黄顺开医生夫人拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生的辞世,并向其家属致以最诚挚慰问。 拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生享嵩寿100岁,一生坚毅、谦逊、低调而有原则。她长期陪伴并支持已故拿督巴丁宜丹斯里黄顺开医生的政治道路,在丈夫投身公共服务及领导砂拉越人民联合党的奋斗历程中,始终坚定站在身旁,默默付出,风雨同路。 拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生也是一名深受敬重的医生。她一生以医者仁心服务社会,关怀病患,尽心尽责,在医疗岗位上展现专业精神与奉献情怀。她以医生的坚毅、冷静与责任感面对人生,也将这份精神贯彻在家庭、社会及党务奉献之中。 自1978年加入砂拉越人民联合党以来,拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生始终忠诚于党,坚守信念。她不仅是已故拿督巴丁宜丹斯里黄顺开医生身旁最坚定的支持者,也是砂拉越人民联合党在艰难时刻值得敬重与铭记的忠诚党员。 2017年8月,尽管拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生已届高龄,并因早前在中国上海不慎跌倒伤及右脚踝,行动不便,她仍坚持以关键证人身份,参与砂拉越人民联合党在诗巫收回3间店屋的法律诉讼,并提供重要证据,协助党最终成功收回有关产业。 当年,她在党员陪同下,仍坚持自行一步步走到位于二楼的高庭;她抵达时,众人因她的坚持与勇气而报以热烈掌声。 她曾坚定地说:“我即使坐轮椅也要来告诉法庭事情的真相。”这番话,充分体现她作为医生的坚强意志,也体现她对真相、原则与砂拉越人民联合党的坚定信念。 拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生一生谦逊低调,从不追求名利或个人表扬。她曾婉拒个人表扬,仅答应代表亡夫领取“砂哈迪终身忠诚奉献精神奖”,这份风范更彰显她对丈夫、对党、对信念的深厚情义与崇高品格。 她的离世,不仅是家属的重大损失,也是砂拉越人民联合党及砂拉越社会的一大损失。她一生的坚守、奉献与精神,将永远受到砂拉越人民联合党铭记。 愿拿汀巴丁宜潘斯里杨守勤医生安息主怀,也愿其家属在哀恸中获得安慰与力量。 60 SHARES Share on FacebookRead More
