Community Voice: Clean, Sustainable, and Equitable Development of Sarawak

Date : 29-30 June 2024

Time : 9am-5pm

Venue : Library Event Hall, MYY Mall, Lutong (First Floor)

Join us for a weekend of panel discussions with local Headmen and leading community and civil rights voices from all over Sarawak.

Top topic will be the massive "Development" projects that are being undertaken without transparency, consultation or proper evaluations on the benefits to local people.

  • What guarantees are being offered on the RM1.25 TRILLION mining project for profits to communities?

  • What Reparations are due for the mega-dams, timber, plantations and other major past projects which have left native communities poorer than ever?

  • What commitments have been obtained on the new SCORE projects, the gas and oil and Carbon Trading projects also?”
