ANIFAH SUPPORT BUMBURING ON RCI?



UPKO Deputy President, Datuk Seri Panglima Wilfred Bumburing said he appreciated and fully support the satetment by Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Anifah Aman in calling for an immediate halt to the ongoing exercise to provide as many as '40,000 delayed birth certificates and MyKads' to Children in Semporna.

Bumbring said Anifah Aman is actually supporting my debate speech in Parliament last week with regards to the illegal immigrants issue and the call to set up a Royal Commission of Inquiry to investigate and get to the bottom of this long-standing issues.

Bumburing Said he fully appreciate and support and the call made by Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Anifah in calling for an immediate stop to the ongoing exercise to provide 40,000 delayed birth certificates and MyKads to children in Semporna.

"Datuk Seri Anifah is actually supporting my speech in parliament last week over the said issues and he too is supportive on the call to set up a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to probe illegal immigrants and the issuance of dubious MyKads in Sabah.

"I am personally receiving daily report conveyed to me verbally that this exercise, providing late birth certificates and MyKads are going on in major towns in the East Coast and the number of such documents issued are reported to be in the regions of 1,000 in one week!

"I concur with Datuk Seri Anifah that there are children from the other communities such as among the Kadazandusun-Murut who have been waiting for soo long to get their birth certificates and as such I questioned the rationale behind the exercise made by the National Registration Department who seem to be able to provide such documents within a short period of time.

"I also call upon the authorities to seriously look into the statement by the President of the Semporna Bumiputera Bajau Bajau Association (Perbubas), En. Mansor Santiri in which he stated that “it doesn’t make sense that a Bumiputera in Semporna does not have any identification documents.” His called for a dialogue with the NRD is indeed justified and should be heeded by the authorites.

“As I have repeated many times and have clearly stated in my Memorandum which I have submitted to the Home Ministry, this is indeed a very serious matter as it really concerns the sovereignty of our country and Sabah in particular.

"The federal government should now seriously announce the setting up of the RCI, if indeed it has been approved by the Federal Cabinat, and get the commission to work immediately in order to get back the confidence of the bona fide Malaysian citizens in Sabah.

"I also urge Sabah leaders to rally behind Datuk Seri Anifah Aman to fully support him on this issues as these issues are what the majority of Malaysian in Sabah wants to be settled positively once and for all,” said Bumburing.

  1. The Federal Government to speed up the formation of the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) on illegal immigrants in Sabah.

    Since Federal Minister Tan Sri Bernard Dompok had said that the setting up of the RCI had been endorsed, the Minister-in-charge-of law who was reportedly assigned to prepare the necessary such as the Terms of Reference (TOR) and commission panel members to do so as soon as possible.

    This is to enable Sabah's cry for justice and punishment for wrongdoers and those behind the treachery can be meted out accordingly.

    It must be treated with urgency and not wait until the matter gets worse and beyond control.

    Those who are involved, under whose patronage such heinous and treacherous acts are committed should be arrested and investigated and given the right punishment without delay.

    The Election Commission ought to take note of the development and revelation by the Semporna Bumiputera Bajau Association leadership.

    Not only that, the Home Ministry should also go down the ground to look into the matter.

  6. Mositun said PBS' call for urgency was in light of the Semporna Bumiputera Bajau Association's allegation that foreigners were also lining up to get documents during the NRD mobile registration exercise, hence its President, Mansor Santiri, calling for the exercise to be halted. It must be treated with urgency and not wait until the matter gets worse and beyond control

    2. PATI bukan saja penyumbang kepada masalah2 sosial di Sabah malah membebankan kerajaan dalam banyak perkara termasuk beban perbelanjaan. memang wajarlah perkara ini diberi perhatian serius kerana isu ini menjadi semakin kritikal dari masa ke semasa.

  12. surely all Sabahans want to know if the sudden increase in the Sabah population in the last decade is related to the huge number of foreigners who might have entered Sabah either legally or illegally and how they managed to obtain MyKads.

Maka kita harap keputusan positif akan kita terima daripada kerajaan Persekutuan mengenai RCI. Kerajaan negeri tidak ada masalah mengenai penubuhan ini. Maka mari kita sama-sama kerajaan NEgeri menyokong penubuhan ini.

  18. memandangkan masih terdapat penduduk tempatan yang masih belum memiliki kad pengenalan dan sijil lahir di negeri, adalah lebih baik program ini diteruskan tapi dengan syarat pihak2 yang membantah program ini perlu turut serta turun padang bersama2 dengan pihak JPN untuk memantau dan mengawasi program ini..
