From the title, what can it tell? yes! I am one of the 'Kumpulan Orang Muda Borneo' It is a group of young Sabahans and Sarawakians where we gather here in peninsular Malaysia to discuss issues in Borneo. Do you know the history of Malaysia? How does it forms from Malaya and combined with Sabah & Sarawak (Borneo). How can Borneo which is quite far from peninsular can be part of Malaysia? and many more issues that we never care to know about..
Last Saturday, this group was invited by Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) to perform a short drama about 'penindasan di Sarawak' I was one of the actress. haha.. bole caya ke saya berlakon? LOL.. I don't think that I have the talent to act, but jadi orang kampung untuk memenuhi pentas pun kira ok la! haha.. That was the second time we perform that drama, the first one was at Church Divine Mercy (CDM) during 'Gawai, Kaamatan' celebration last year. I think we did well for the drama, the message was delivered well.
Orang kampung I sedang cuci kain.. hehe..

Pencerobohan hutan dan rumah panjang..

Marilah bangun dan berjuang mempertahankan HAK KITA!

Let's fight for our RIGHTS!
I think I will never know about this if I did not exposed to the real situations. SALT has opened my eyes to see what is actually happening. We went to Uma Balui Liko (resettlement house for the Bakun Dam) to be 'in their shoes' when their land was seized by the government. All the sweet promises, NONE were accomplished! =( Let us pray for them so that their rights will be protected!
