Nicholas Mujah-Secretary General of the Sarawak Dayak Iban Organization (SADIA).
*Politicians got rich 24 hours after selling PL*
Since its establishment 50 years ago, SADIA has played a role in safeguarding the rights of the Dayak Iban people in Sarawak. According to Nicholas Mujah. Cases of land encroachment, environmental crimes and human rights reported to SADIA are increasing every year. Of course this is due to the ruling government's policy not being in line with the wishes and rights of the indigenous people. Lately - the cases reported to SADIA are more and more diverse - the effects of laws that are not in favor of indigenous people passed in the Sarawak State Assembly. Today SADIA received a case of land encroachment by Melor Gemilang Plantation Sdn.Bhd against the land of the Iban community in Kampung Merakai-SERIAN. Merakai villagers have been prevented by the Melor Gemilang company from entering their garden land for the past 3 months. It is said that the land has been given PL by the Sarawak government to Melor Gemilang for commercial oil palm cultivation. The total land area is 2000 acres - involving 96 Merakai house doors. SADIA has two options to help. First take the case to court and second by way of certification. The option of taking a case to court takes a lot of time, energy and money. Then the second option will be preferred. Based on the Sarawak constitution. Written law cannot abolish customary law. Therefore, if the Melor Gemilang company obtains their PL through the Sarawak land code. It does not mean that they can remove the rights of the people to their land that has been inherited by custom. If followed by certification. Any oil palm plantation company cannot encroach or seize the land of the villagers. If not follow the certification. Then the palm oil products will not be able to be sold. Merakai villagers must prepare complete reports and documents. When asked if this case involved politicians. Mujah Binkkas replied that the PL was given by politicians. Rich politicians within 24 hours of selling the PL given to them to rich taukeh. This is a bad practice and needs to be stopped - Mujah said.
