Dollah is coming to Sarawak after Sabah

Ok, after disguising himself as the Santa Claus in Sabah, now Dollah is going to come to Sarawak to present his gifts to the people of Sarawak.

How much do the Sarawakians can expect from Uncle Santa. He and his cronies caused many people stranded in longhouses after Gawai for the depleted diesel supply at fuel pumps. Due to the delay, some people miss their flights to fly back to their respective towns and cities wasting hundreds of ringgit per individual. By right his special visit supposes to be giving a state apology to the Sarawak folks for causing all the travel inconvenience rather than special gifts, which might not be even be good news after all.

His announcement last week didn’t really reach the Sarawakians in rural area. It proves that the telecommunication system in the state has not been urbanized well for people living on upper stream. Luckily this is just flash news on fuel rise. If its a message to warn people of natural disaster? Many would have die due to the failure to receive the message in time.

Many Sarawakians have no choice but to depend solely on river to travel due to non-proper road system. Imagine some people are risking their life against the possibilities of capsized boats or serving as a meal to the large native crocs of Sarawak. After a few generations, not much evidence to prove that transportation is getting better.

Seriously look into this, Dollah. Don’t put your focus only on saving your ass on political issues. The fact now is that Sarawakians are living like 3rd class citizens compare to most of the states in Peninsular Malaysia. So if you want to present a gift, be sure that it benefits the people. Don’t be surprise if BN lost in the next election.
