Komeok Joe, Penan environmental activist
*We Penan are ready to oppose the construction of the Tutoh hydro dam*
According to Komeok, the entire penan community is against the government's plan to build the Tutoh dam. We were surprised when we read in the newspaper, the Premier of Sarawak announced the construction of the Tutoh dam, supposedly everything had been approved. We all disagree, maybe only YB agrees. Tutoh River is our source of life. There are many fish. There are lots of crocodiles too. But the crocodile didn't bother us. In the Tutoh area, the majority are Penan, followed by Kayan, Tering, Berawan, Lakiput, Iban and Kedayan. We all want good roads, not hydro dams. We will write a letter to YB and the Premier. But we are ready to fight if we have to. We ask everyone to help us. We can successfully prevent the construction of the Tutoh dam just as we successfully prevented the construction of the Baram dam.
