Mutang Tuo, Spokesperson for Penan Long Iman.
*Penan Villagers Disagree with Shin Yang's Forest Restrictions and Carbon Wood Plantation Plans*
Mutang Tuo attended a dialogue session between the villagers of Long Iman with Shin Yang company on April 25, 2024.
Shin Yang Company informed that they will plant Carbon Wood in the Penan forest area. They said, the purpose is that our forest will have more wood and make the air fresher. How for this to happen? We Penan people are no longer allowed to enter the forest and are no longer allowed to cut wood, hunt and collect forest products. This is what makes us Penan disagree. How could we not enter the forest, while we do depend on living through the forest – said Mutang Tuo.
Mutang Tuo comment that, Shin Yang does not need to plant carbon trees in our forest, because high quality wood will build itself, as long as no logging company comes to cut down.
“We also informed Shin Yang that we no longer trust Shin Yang. Shin Yang has told us many promises from a long time ago, but not fulfilled. Until now the promised road to our longhouse has not been built by Shin Yang, but the wood in our area has been cut down.”
The Shin Yang staff who came handed out forms and Mutang and his communities were asked many questions. Some of them hand over Mykad so that personal details can be entered in the form. He said that, another part of them refused to issue Mykad, but only mention the name.
They mentioned repeatedly that they do not agree with Shin Yang coming in and planting carbon trees in their area.
But we had a problem, because none of us knew how to write a protest letter to send to the government or Shin Yang. We need your help out there- Mutang Tuo said. Shin Yang will hold the same dialogue session in Long Payau on May 2, 2024.
