Finally Taib comes to his senses, er almost!

The Chief Minister of Sarawak, Taib Mahmud has finally admitted that the people of his constituent dislike him.(read here) He must have really felt guilty after his global wealth was exposed, while his own people still wallow in poverty. He must have also felt really guilty for not having kept his promise to uplift the living standard of his people. And what did he promise? He promised the people of Sarawak that in return for their land and destruction of the rainforest they would receive a future bathed in wealth and prosperity. He promised them a modern standard of living comparable to advanced countries. He promised the Iban good compensation when they were forced from their homes to make way for the building of the dam but they were charge more for their new homes. He promised free water and electricity from the dam, but this promise has since been broken. He promised the people at Batang Ai that if they voted for him he would pay millions of ringgit to improve their longhouses and their roads. But that did not happen. Meanwhile he and his family and cronies amass properties worth billions around the world. Is it therefore any wonder his own kind dislikes him.
He then appeals to the people not to abandon BN just because they dont like him. Is he still blurr or what? He and the BN, especially the umnos, are just as guilty for the present situation in Sarawak. What? do you mean the hands of the umnos are clean? You have been scratching each others back for the past 50 years and the fact remains that Malaysia's richest state has the poorest population.
