PETER JOHN JABAN HIJACKED BY UNIDENTIFIED SECURITY FORCES

Outside Miri airport

Radio Free Sarawak has now learnt that their DJ Peter John Jaban, known to listeners as Papa Orang Utan, was hijacked by unidentified plain clothes people, believed to be linked to Special Branch as he left the airport at Miri this morning.

Peter had been detained at Kota Kinabalu airport as he tried to return to Sarawak to celebrate Gawai with his family. He was then escorted to the airplaine and warned that he would be picked up by Special Branch at the other end.

Local PKR branch leader Michael Teo and a lawyer Alan Ling met him at the airport and said that they were able to take him away, despite a heavy police presence, because there were no specific instructions to arrest him.

However, on the way from the airport, on the road to Miri town their car was apparently stopped by another vehicle with three unidentified plain clothes men, who took Peter from the car.

We are assuming these men are associated with the authorities, but they illegally failed to give their identities to the lawyer.

“To say we are worried is an understatement” Clare Rewcastle Brown, Founder of Radio Free Sarawak, has said today. “We are desperately trying to find where Peter is and why he was pulled from a car without any proper reason by unidentified people. The lawyer Alan Ling will be lodging a police report immediately.

“Our immediate concern is that Peter is not hurt. We need immediate information as to his whereabouts and his lawyer should be allowed accesss to him immediately. We are also concerned that he is subject to high blood pressure and on medication and this health problem needs to be given proper attention. This stressful situation will be very bad for his condition.”

Astrological Weight At Birth

Astrological weight at birth is invented by Yuan Tian Gang, a very famous astrologer of the Tang Dynasty.

It is one of the most simplified and popular Chinese astrology systems used to predict a person’s life fortune. This system can be found in the Chinese Almanac or Tong Sheng.

Under this system, the heavier the weight, the better one’s life will be. The maximum weight of 7.1 is supposed to be that of an emperor.

In the olden days, the Chinese traditionally have their baby’s astrological weight at birth calculated at birth so as to have an indication of the child’s fortune throughout his or her lifetime.

Here's the 'print screen' of my astrological weight at birth and the prediction.

I am 5 liang 5 chin & it says :-

"Wealth and fame will be a struggle for you. At a young age, everything you do will be criticised. Take it all in stride as soon and you shall enjoy prosperity luck. Then, even your relatives will benefit from your prosperity. Place a rooster in your office to avoid people gossiping about you and a dragon tortoise behind you where you sit at work to give you support.

Hmm... if you see a rooster or a dragon tortoise in my office, please don't simply touch ok? Hahaha...

Sabah 20-points & Sarawak 18-points agreement

Point 1: Religion

While there was no objection to Islam being the national religion of Malaysia there should be no State religion in North Borneo, and the provisions relating to Islam in the present Constitution of Malaya should not apply to North Borneo

Point 2: Language

• a. Malay should be the national language of the Federation
• b. English should continue to be used for a period of 10 years after Malaysia Day
• c. English should be an official language of North Borneo for all purposes, State or Federal, without limitation of time.

Point 3: Constitution

Whilst accepting that the present Constitution of the Federation of Malaya should form the basis of the Constitution of Malaysia, the Constitution of Malaysia should be a completely new document drafted and agreed in the light of a free association of states and should not be a series of amendments to a Constitution drafted and agreed by different states in totally different circumstances. A new Constitution for North Borneo (Sabah) was of course essential.

Point 4: Head of Federation

The Head of State in North Borneo should not be eligible for election as Head of the Federation

Point 5: Name of Federation

“Malaysia” but not “Melayu Raya”

Point 6: Immigration

Control over immigration into any part of Malaysia from outside should rest with the Central Government but entry into North Borneo should also require the approval of the State Government. The Federal Government should not be able to veto the entry of persons into North Borneo for State Government purposes except on strictly security grounds. North Borneo should have unfettered control over the movements of persons other than those in Federal Government employ from other parts of Malaysia into North Borneo.

Point 7: Right of Secession

There should be no right to secede from the Federation.

Point 8: Borneanisation

Borneanisation of the public service should proceed as quickly as possible.

Point 9: British Officers

Every effort should be made to encourage British Officers to remain in the public service until their places can be taken by suitably qualified people from North Borneo.

Point 10: Citizenship

The recommendation in paragraph 148(k) of the Report of the Cobbold Commission should govern the citizenship rights in the Federation of North Borneo subject to the following amendments:

• a) sub-paragraph (i) should not contain the proviso as to five years residence
• b) in order to tie up with our law, sub-paragraph (ii)(a) should read “7 out of 10 years” instead of “8 out of 10 years”
• c) sub-paragraph (iii) should not contain any restriction tied to the citizenship of parents – a person born in North Borneo after Malaysia must be federal citizen.

Point 11: Tariffs and Finance

North Borneo should retain control of its own finance, development and tariff, and should have the right to work up its own taxation and to raise loans on its own credit.

Point 12: Special position of indigenous races

In principle the indigenous races of North Borneo should enjoy special rights analogous to those enjoyed by Malays in Malaya, but the present Malaya formula in this regard is not necessarily applicable in North Borneo.

Point 13: State Government

• a) the Chief Minister should be elected by unofficial members of Legislative Council
• b) There should be a proper Ministerial system in North Borneo.

Point 14: Transitional period

This should be seven years and during such period legislative power must be left with the State of North Borneo by the Constitution and not be merely delegated to the State Government by the Federal Government.

Point 15: Education

The existing educational system of North Borneo should be maintained and for this reason it should be under state control.

Point 16: Constitutional safeguards

No amendment modification or withdrawal of any special safeguard granted to North Borneo should be made by the Central Government without the positive concurrence of the Government of the State of North Borneo

The power of amending the Constitution of the State of North Borneo should belong exclusively to the people in the state. (Note: The United Party, The Democratic Party and the Pasok Momogun Party considered that a three-fourth majority would be required in order to effect any amendment to the Federal and State Constitutions whereas the UNKO and USNO considered a two-thirds majority would be sufficient.)

Point 17: Representation in Federal Parliament

This should take account not only of the population of North Borneo but also of its size and potentialities and in any case should not be less than that of Singapore.

Point 18: Name of Head of State

Yang di-Pertua Negara.

Point 19: Name of State

Sabah.

Point 20: Land, Forests, Local Government, etc.

The provisions in the Constitution of the Federation in respect of the powers of the National Land Council should not apply in North Borneo. Likewise, the National Council for Local Government should not apply in North Borneo.

Jalan Miri-Marudi

Cerita pasal jalan dari Miri ke Marudi ini telah lama kedengaran sejak saya di bangku sekolah rendah lagi. Namun setelah  kira-kira 30 tahun berlalu, kini jalan tersebut dijangka siap pada 16.2.2013 dan menelan belanja RM59.5 juta. Baru-baru ini (4/5/2012) saya telah pergi ke Marudi melalui jalan tersebut dengan kereta Perodua Kelisa dan berikut merupakan keadaan sepanjang jalan tersebut.

• Jumlah jarak: 46km (dari simpang jalan Miri/Bintulu-Marudi ke Feri Sungai Baram)
• KM0 hingga KM4 (dari simpang jalan Miri/Bintulu) - Jalan berbatu
• KM4 hingga KM22 - Jalan telah diturap bercampur batu halus
• KM22 hingga KM33 - Jalan tanah kuning dan dijangka diturap seterusnya
• KM33 - Feri Sungai Arang (Tambang: RM15.00)
• KM33 hingga KM46 - jalan pasir sahaja & licin ketika hari hujan
• KM46 - Feri Sungai Baram (Tambang: RM15.00)

Tips For When To Buy Gasoline

Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening….your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role.

A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.

When you’re filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode If you look you will see that the trigger has three (3) stages: low, middle, and high. You should be pumping on low mode, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you’re getting less worth for your money.

One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL. The reason for this is the more gas you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact amount.

Another reminder, if there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up; most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom.
