*The Devastating Impact of Logging and the Call for Action to Combat Heat*
On Ellen nino is getting weak, of course very much affect the livelihoods of our communities, especially the farmers.
Right now we already experiencing heat. So we must find ways to fight against heat.
Currently many rural people no awareness on climate change.
And this climate change is definitely due to rampant logging activities since in the 1980s till now. All our forest are gone, and that's why we are experiencing extreme heat. There is no other cause except logging activities, where all the trees are chopped off and cause climate change.
On 264 cases illegal logging recorded in sarawak, that is a very shocked numbers. This might be due to MCO during pandemic, as no one can do monitoring and furthermore we found it quite difficult to get informations during that time.
So he suggests that the state govt must monitor all logging activities or stop releasing licence to those companies.
Trees are very important to our livelihoods as it is able to minimise the temperature and produce carbons.
In his village the forest have been logged and the community now already started replanting programme and hopes other communities also do the same thing

George from Miri
*No Fraud, No Shady Actions on Pan Borneo Project*
In a statement issued last week, PMX Anwar Ibrahim, expressed his commitment to expedite the Pan Borneo Highway Project in Sabah and Sarawak through a fast-track approach. The project, which commenced in July 2016, involves 35 work packages spanning 706 kilometers, starting from the border of Sabah and Sarawak in Sindumin and extending to Tawau.
Anwar said when he attended a program in UMS : “I want this matter to be resolved and initiated this year for the project to be completed. This is the new way of the government, no wastage, no fraud, no shady actions”
Despite that, its construction was hindered when there was a change in government from the era of Tun Mahathir to Tan Sri Mahiaddin and then to Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri, and swift action was not taken to restore its construction according to the schedule.
George comments that the existing completed sections of the road seem messy, with one side being built and then switched to the other side. There is not a single road that is complete, making driving on the Pan Borneo Highway highly dangerous. He believes that the road construction plans were not well-executed, but he also emphasizes that the contractors should not be solely blamed for this. The government should provide clear instructions and guidance in this regard.
Currently, many sections of the road, although initially built, quickly become uneven and damaged, especially due to the heavy traffic of large trucks. George believes that the highways in Peninsular Malaysia have better quality and suggests referring to them as a benchmark. He expresses that the funding provided by the government should be sufficient for road construction. However, the issue lies in Sarawak where the project is often subcontracted, resulting in limited funds reaching the end. As a consequence, the quality of the constructed roads is poor.

*PMX want “Segulai Sejalai”, meands No one left Behind*
As a person of Iban nationality, Thomas felt proud when PMX raised the theme of Segulai Sejalai as the theme of national unity. According to Thomas, the meaning of segulai sejalai is "progress together". This means that PMX wants all races in Malaysia to progress together and that no one is left behind in backwardness and poverty. Thomas also agreed with the recommendation of UPM political science professor, Prof Datuk Dr. Jayum Jawan. The phrase Segulai is appropriate in implementing the national unity agenda. Thomas acknowledged that the Iban people are a very divided nation in politics, also poor and backward. Therefore, because of that with the leadership of PMX Thomas hopes that the iban people will be able to unite to support him. Thomas also reprimanded the Iban leaders in the Long houses who still cannot accept the leadership of PMX - where there are still Long houses that have not put the Prime Minister's poster on the Ruai of their Long houses. On the other hand, there is still a poster/picture of the previous prime minister. Thomas insists that is a backwards attitude. Anwar Ibrahim is far more capable than Najib Razak, Muhyiddin Yassin is even more open than Tun Mahathir. The Iban people should unite to support PMX and should propose that Iban language faculties be established in local universities.
