Politics isn't just about winning elections—it's about delivering a powerful message of protecting rights, upholding dignity, and ensuring justice. It's about exposing and reforming corrupt, ineffective systems.

The recent move by the Sarawak State and the call by Speaker of Dewan Undangan Negri (DUN) and by some Cabinet Ministers during Hari Raya to get the federal Government to increase the number of state assembly seats from 82 to 99 is not reform—it is excess dressed up as necessity.

I, Voon Lee Shan, President of Parti Bumi Kenyalang, wish to draw urgent attention to the longstanding and worsening issue faced by residents at Lorong Belian No. 45 (rear portion), particularly at the junction leading to Jalan Albinus main road, near the primary school identified as SUDC No. 4 (SRK Perbandaran Sibu No. 4) in Sibu.

 

The proposal to increase the number of parliamentary and state seats in Sarawak must be strongly questioned, especially at a time when Malaysia is facing serious fiscal pressures and rising national debt. Expanding the number of elected representatives will inevitably lead to higher public expenditure, yet there is little evidence that it will improve governance or public welfare.

(KUCHING, Sarawak – 02/03/2026) Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) hari ini mengulangi pendirian teguhnya mengenai ketidakperlembagaan Akta Pembangunan Petroleum 1974 (PDA 1974) dan Akta Pelantar Benua 1966 (CSA 1966), menyeru agar ia dimansuhkan sepenuhnya. Parti itu menegaskan bahawa undang-undang persekutuan ini secara tidak adil telah melucutkan kawalan sah Sarawak ke atas sumber minyak dan gasnya sendiri, menjejaskan statusnya sebagai rakan kongsi pengasas yang setara dalam Malaysia di bawah Perjanjian Malaysia 1963 (MA63).

(KUCHING, Sarawak 27 Feb 2026) – Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) today reiterated its unwavering stance on the unconstitutionality of the Petroleum Development Act 1974 (PDA 1974) and the Continental Shelf Act 1966 (CSA 1966), calling for their outright repeal. The party asserts that these federal laws have unjustly stripped Sarawak of its rightful control over its own oil and gas resources, undermining its status as an equal founding partner in Malaysia under the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63).

I. Bukan Soal "Nak Iktiraf atau Tidak", Tetapi "Mengapa UEC Wujud"
Pertikaian semasa mengenai "pengiktirafan UEC" sering dipermudahkan menjadi isu teknikal: Adakah UEC setaraf dengan diploma negara? Adakah pelajar UEC perlu menduduki SPM bagi subjek Bahasa Melayu dan Sejarah? Namun, jika dipisahkan daripada konteks sejarah, persoalan ini sebenarnya salah. UEC bukanlah "pilihan melulu" masyarakat Cina, sebaliknya ia adalah mekanisme kelangsungan hidup yang terpaksa diwujudkan akibat keretakan sistemik.


Today, Parti Bumi Kenyalang speaks not merely as a political party, but as a constitutional conscience for Sarawak. We address a question that goes to the heart of Malaysia’s foundation. If Sabah, as a founding territory of Malaysia, is entitled to 40% of the net revenue derived from it by the Federation, can Sarawak — an equal founding partner — be treated differently?

Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) memandang dengan penuh kebimbangan dan kekecewaan terhadap penghakisan berterusan dominasi sah Sarawak ke atas sumber minyak dan gasnya di bawah pentadbiran kerajaan GPS.

Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) views with deep concern and disappointment the continued erosion of Sarawak’s rightful dominance over its oil and gas resources under the watch of the GPS government.

Saya baru sahaja dimaklumkan bahawa saya dikehendaki menghadiri satu lagi siasatan polis. Saya akan cuba menemui mereka hari ini jika berkesan. Berdasarkan pengalaman sebelum ini, saya faham bahawa siasatan ini mungkin berkaitan dengan aktiviti politik dan kenyataan awam saya mengenai kedudukan perlembagaan serta status sejarah Sarawak. Saya merekodkan kenyataan ini demi kejelasan, ketelusan, dan rasa hormat terhadap kedaulatan undang-undang.

I have been informed just now that I am required to attend another police investigation. I try to see them today if I can. Based on prior experience, I understand that this inquiry may relate to my political activities and public statements concerning the constitutional position and historical status of Sarawak. I place this statement on record in the interest of clarity, transparency, and respect for the rule of law.

 There is no excuse, no justification, and no moral authority for the Prime Minister to continue rejecting the recognition of the Unified Examination Certificate (UEC). This refusal is not about national interest—it is about political cowardice, racial posturing and intellectual laziness.

 

Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) urges the Sarawak Government to sponsor the airing of the Christmas Mass service over radio and television. Christmas has long been a major celebration in Sarawak—both before and after the formation of Malaysia. In earlier decades, the Sarawak government and broadcasting authorities were very supportive of using festive occasions to promote unity and harmony among all communities.

Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) expresses deep concern over the recent shooting incident in Melaka involving law-enforcement personnel. The loss of life under circumstances that remain unclear has shocked the public and further eroded confidence in agencies entrusted with safeguarding the people.

Parti Bumi Kenyalang (PBK) | Sabah Sarawak Rights – Australia New Zealand (SSRANZ): Zaid Ibrahim’s Remarks Underscore MA63’s Legal Invalidity and Reinforce Sabah andarawak’s Right to Self-Determination

The plan to expand the Sarawak Cabinet by four more ministers is nothing short of irresponsible and self-serving. At a time when Sarawakians are demanding better roads, clean water, reliable healthcare, and stronger economic opportunities, the government’s priority appears to be creating more political posts for its own allies.

“PERJANJIAN TIMBAL BALIK MALAYA–AS BUKANLAH PERJANJIAN KAMI — SABAH & SARAWAK TIDAK PERNAH DIBERI MAKLUM.”

Perjanjian yang digelar “Perjanjian Perdagangan Timbal Balik” antara Amerika Syarikat dan Malaysia (26 Oct 2025) ) adalah lagi satu tindakan angkuh kolonial oleh Putrajaya. Ia ditandatangani tanpa pengetahuan atau persetujuan Sabah dan Sarawak, namun mengikat tanah, sumber, dan masa depan kami.


“ THE MALAYA–US RECIPROCAL DEAL IS NOT OUR DEAL — SABAH & SARAWAK WERE NEVER CONSULTED”  
The so-called “Reciprocal Trade Agreement” signed between the United States and Malaysia on 26 Oct 2025 is yet another act of colonial arrogance by Putrajaya. It was signed without the knowledge or consent of Sabah and Sarawak, yet it binds our land, resources and future.

The 2026 National Budget has not done much justice to Sarawak. Year in year out for the past sixty years, the Sarawak government was hoping and lobbying for more funds for Sarawak.
