砂旅游、创意产业及表演艺术部日前派员到访美里，对“美里文化遗产径”（Miri Heritage Trail）沿线8处世界二战历史遗迹进行实地考察，评估景点现状及发展方向，以推动二战历史旅游发展。 此次考察团由砂旅游、创意产业及表演艺术部首席助理秘书蔡静芬率队，砂旅游部副部长拿督陈超耀亲自随行，就文化遗产整体规划、设施及旅游发展进行交流。考察涵盖的遗址包括布莱顿海滩日军登陆遗址（含灯塔、日本纪念碑及灯塔看守人之墓）、加拿大山一号油井、加拿大山英国水力水坝及二战防空洞、拿督柏迈苏里王后陵墓、瓜拉峇南第二十步兵旅英国碉堡、罗冰战俘营及处决场，以及加拿大山二战纪念公园。 陈超耀指出，这些遗址完整记录美里在日占时期的历史脉络，承载深厚的人文记忆与历史价值。美里文化遗产径汇聚本地最具代表性的二战遗迹，不仅具有重要历史教育意义，也具备可观的旅游发展潜力。他强调，推动文化遗产径不仅是发展旅游，更是让公众理解、铭记并传承本土历史。 陈超耀转述历史文献，美里文化遗产径在二战期间，曾有28名战俘及本地居民在此遭日军处决，布莱顿海滩是日军登陆美里的重要据点。灯塔看守人阿旺美达利在发现日军逼近时发出警报，试图通知各方应对，但不幸遇害，其墓地至今仍安葬于此，象征其英勇牺牲精神。灯塔旁的日本纪念碑则记录了当年在美里石油工业服务期间不幸丧命的各国人士，反映战争对不同族群及国家的共同伤痛。 他强调，这些遗址是重要的文化资产与教育现场，应妥善保护与传承，让后代了解战争历史，铭记和平的珍贵。

Adam Yii Says Sarawak Must Stay Firm on Its Own Development Path
Sarawak United Peoples Party central publicity secretary Adam Yii said the recent federal Cabinet reshuffle and the appointment of two Members of Parliament from Sarawak Pakatan Harapan as deputy ministers should be viewed with caution rather than celebration. In a statement, Yii said that on the surface the appointments appeared to signal greater federal attention to Sarawak’s voice. However, when examined within a broader political context, he described the move as a calculated political manoeuvre rather than a genuine contribution to Sarawak’s long term development. He said following Pakatan Harapan’sRead More

俞小珊：砂继续坚定走好属于自己的发展路径
人联党中央宣教秘书俞小珊发文告指出随着联邦政府宣布最新的内阁改组，两位来自砂拉越希盟的国会议员被委任为副部长。表面上，这似乎象征着联邦更加重视砂拉越的声音。然而，若将事件放在更大的政治背景下检视，就会发现这项任命更像是一场精心计算的政治算计，而不是对砂拉越发展的实质贡献。 他说，在沙巴经历补选惨败之后，希盟目前迫切需要稳定东马的政治版图，以免相同的局面在下一届砂选举重演。任命来自砂希盟的副部长，显然是为了向砂拉越释放“被重视”的讯号，以安抚支持者，也为砂希盟输血，确保其能撑过未来的政治竞争。 “然而，砂拉越人民必须清醒地认识到副部长的任命是迫于无奈的政治操作，而不是权力的下放是象征性的补偿，而非真正的发展承诺。” 他进一步表示，砂拉越长期争取的，是实质性的权力、资源与政策自主，包括 MA63 所赋予的权利、能源与教育的独立决策空间、以及更公平的财政分配。 他称，联邦的政治与砂拉越的现实需求本质上不同。砂拉越正处于发展关键期，从氢能经济、绿色产业、再生能源，到教育自主、数字化转型与乡区基础设施提升，每一步都在朝 PCDS2030 的方向稳健推进。这是一套属于砂拉越的蓝图，由砂拉越制定、砂拉越执行，也必须由砂拉越自己守护。 “因此，我们必须把焦点从’联邦委任了谁’拉回到’砂拉越真正需要什么’。” 他指出，砂盟政府在过去数年所展现的，是稳定、执行力与长远规划；联邦的政治安排，却往往随着形式与选举而改变，难以与砂拉越的发展节奏同步。砂拉越已经证明，只有摆脱马来亚政治的牵动，才能保持政策连贯性，吸引国际投资，实现经济转型。 “砂民必须看见，我们的未来不建立在联邦给予多少职位，而是我们自己有多大决心持续走好砂拉越优先的道路。无论政局如何变化，砂拉越的发展不能被马来亚政治的风向牵着走。我们不能让象征性的任命稀释了砂拉越追求真正自治与长远发展的努力，更不能让外来的政治操作干扰砂拉越前进的步伐。” “砂拉越已经站在腾飞的路上。现在最需要的，是继续坚定走好属于自己的发展路径。” 俞小珊强调，砂民值得拥有的，不是为了政党利益选票迫于无奈的安抚，而是真正属于砂拉越的权力、资源与未来。
