Dayaks United


This morning while reading Borneo Post online, I found one colum written by James Ling, Dayaks must sink their differences: Masing, caught my eyes.

“Dayaks must not differentiate between Iban, Bidayuh, Orang Ulu, etc. We must sink our differences and focus on the similarities and common interests. We are all united Dayaks,” said Masing. He said Dayak unity was vital in all spheres, particularly politics among Dayak leaders.

Yes, of course, we are united dayaks, but the truth is that, the real dayaks united has burried alive ever since the PBDS rip.

I highlighted the part of particularly politics among Dayak leaders, because the root of these problem were came from them. To change the dayaks, the dayak leaders themselves should take a first steps to change and concentrate on the similarities and common interests of us all, the Dayaks.

The funny part is that the person who once, have brought the matter of dayak unity into destruction now talk about dayak unity? *Sign***

Nothing personal, just a view from my little window.
I respect Datuk Seri Dr James Masing as a strong political leader who stands for the dayaks, the thing is that, when the strong is much too much, its tend to destroy the will. Political is a manipulating games, the love of power plus manipulated is equal to destruction. That's what happened to PBDS.

Think twice, look back times, dayaks used to be very very united under the well known famous sarawak based party PBDS (Parti Bersatu Dayak Sarawak). Used to be..

After the government initiatives to fix the broken party by made a greatest decision of to ban the party at last, dayaks later splits into various groups, the fight of thought begun to take place, the differents of political perspectives and view fill the air. Today, dayaks has no original party which purposely stand for them. Pity dayaks, but some people are happy!

Where is the almighthy PBDS? Its gone. Why? Because of Masing and Daniel? Nope, and yes, they does contributed some, we, dayaks also contributed some, but half of the contribution is came from outsiders.

You know what I mean. Well, if you don't, pretend...
