Sabah should have more money floating around

THE Federal Government has pumped in projects worth hundreds of millions and may even have touched RM1billion. Would it not be fair to offer all the PKK Class A, B, C, D, and F, major slices of these jobs?

Be fair to the C, D, E and F and offer more jobs where each licence can even have up to RM5m or more jobs.

The PKK A must share with all the BN components as they are the key supporters, irrespective Umno, PBS, PBRS, Upko, Gerakan, LDP, MCA and many others. We would like to see that the big projects be cut down to major slices in PKK, D, E and F. This will encourage the cash flow circulating in the city and towns.

At his moment, we have heard millions being pumped into Sabah and but not many have cash to spend in the shops and complexes.

During Berjaya time, we could see the rakyat spending money everywhere in the towns, which helped the economy to further grow.

We would like the same scenario, again. We have heard big projects given away to key Ketua Bahagians in Umno, PBS, LDP, PBRS and Upko - but where do they spend their monies?

So please offer these big projects by slicing into smaller ones to the C, D, E and F.

Please ensure the gap between the rich and middle income/poor do not grow too far away.

As for housing, there never seem to be enough for the rakyat.

Are our politicians, civil servants and supporters taking away the keys to themselves?

I was told for every 1,000 built there are still 10,000 waiting.

Please appoint a Special Commissioner of Housing to resolve this issue urgently.

If there is no land, there are ample lands around.

Even if the State Assembly has to take an individual land for this exercise, it is meant for the rakyat.

Pass the bill.

Please ensure that everybody can afford a decent home, especially those earning less than RM4,000 per month.

Coming to food items, everytime the Government increases cash for the rakyat, all items increases in price. At the end of the day, the poor will become poorer. No meaning in the extra cash.

Maybe it is time for the State Government to have a special GLC, like Sabah Marketing Corporation, where Sama can import in bulk directly from producers.

The Japanese have done this. Maybe this is the only way to reduce prices in all items affecting the rakyat. Housing, food items, etc.

The opposition will always shout and dream. Please do not allow that dream be a reality.

Tan Sri Harris did so much for the rich and the rakyat and yet, PBS out of nowhere, could beat a giant.

Please help the common rakyat to improve their lives and livehood.

They are not asking for millions as the Ketua Bahagians and supporters.

They are merely asking for a fair opportunity to work and earn to provide their families a decent home, food, education, hospitalisation and opportunity to grow and improve.
