Illegals getting Mykads everyday

STRANGER…. Alex talking to the ‘people’ waiting to be registered.

SABAH DAP Kudat Chief, Alex Wong today went pass the Sikuati town near Kudat saw a registration boot where many people were queuing up for an registration exercise.

Out of curiosity, he approached the people who gathered at the community hall in Sikuati to find what is happening. He was told by the people in the market that there is a registration for the MyCard application.

He saw quite a number of people waiting and these people seem to be not our local folks and some are elderly. He then spoke to some of them and confirmed through the conversation that they are not even the locals from Kudat district.

The Native Chief present there refused to comment when asked how can these people suspected to be foreigners can registered to apply for our MyCard, and he declined to comment and just sat down with these groups of alleged foreigners.

The registration exercise was started on the 13th to the 17th of June. There had been many such people who had come for the registration.

According to the people interviewed by Alex Wong, the registration was supposed to be meant for the late registration for the local new born, but how come these older people were queuing up to register. Many of them had the letter of consent from the DO, Ketua Kampong and Native Chief, before they can register.

Alex said this is extraordinary to see that the registration exercise is done in such a manner, and it is improper. He wants the JPN and JKM to explain why this is happening.

Alex said he was told that this type of registration is not only happening in Sikuati, but this had been carried out in many other places in Sabah eg. In Petagas, Telipok, Pulau Banggi and even in Penampang.

If we are registering the foreigners to give them MyCard, this is dead wrong and this is an act of treason. We cannot allow this to happen under our nose, and that is why our population had jumped 390% during the past.

Who is behind all these, and who should be held responsible? Are we the local Sabah Bumiputra going to be the minority when compared with the ‘new Bumiputra’?

Something has to be done to stop this, otherwise our children and grand children will definitely suffer. I see no use to ask the BN government to investigate into this matter, and the only way to stop this is to change the government and let Pakatan Rakyat to replace them.

Umno's by hook or by crook

'Umno soliciting citizenship to boost vote bank'

Selangor PKR today produced a document to back a claim that Umno is trying to get citizenship for some 2,000 permanent residents in Hulu Selangor, to bolster its vote bank for the next general election.

Selangor deputy chairperson Zuraida Kamaruddin (left in photo) showed reporters a letter to 'prove' her claim, and called the move Umno's abuse of government process.


The letter, dated March 23, and signed by Hulu Selangor Umno division chief Mohamed Idris Abu Bakar, was addressed to Home Minister and Umno vice-president Hishammuddin Hussein.

"It is with pleasure that we inform you that we have identified and verified a list of individuals who are potential voters who can help the BN win in Hulu Selangor in the 13th general election,” reads the letter.

"They are students, entrepreneurs and the gainfully employed, all of whom are expected to contribute to the development of the country while also assisting the BN to win in the election, especially the 13th general election.

"As such, we hope that (you) can grant early approval so we can process the applications smoothly," Idris said in the letter (right).

The letter was printed with an Umno letterhead purportedly belonging to the party's Hulu Selangor division and was sent to the Home Ministry in Putrajaya.

Civil servants 'no longer compliant' 

According to Zuraida, a concerned civil servant passed her the letter last Friday.

"We will lodge police reports about this tomorrow in Hulu Selangor, one against Idris as the Hulu Selangor Umno division chief and another against Hishammuddin," she said.

"It appears that there is a syndicate doing this, and it is no longer a secret. He has even gone to an employment agency."

Zuraida, who is PKR Wanita head, claimed that most of those listed in Idris' request are Indonesians. The list of applicants, however, was not shown to the media.

She said the fact that it was a civil servant who had raised the matter serves as a message to the BN government.

"We want to send the message that civil servants no longer support them. They (the civil servants) no longer succumb to the politics of intimidation and fear.

"The rakyat knows not to protect things that are not proper and this information was given to us on that basis."

Mohamed Idris could not be reached for comments despite several attempts by Malaysiakini.

When contacted, Hulu Selangor parliamentarian P Kamalanathan could not issue a response on the matter as he was occupied in another engagement.
