WITH THE BIDAYUH'S PRESENT PRIVILEGES GIVEN,  IT'S UNFAIR FOR US TO KEEP ON ASKING FROM THE GOVERNMENT

THE Bidayuh community are grateful people and they we won’t asked for more to what the government had given to them all this while, said Minister of Infrastructure Development and Communication Dato Sri Michael Manyin Jawong.

“At this moment, I think what else do we ask for? Presently, we have two deputy ministers at the federal level, one full minister, two assistant ministers and one deputy speaker at the state-level, what else can we ask for? I think for the time being, it is enough privilege for a small community like us.”

Manyin who is also the Tebedu Assemblyman said this when asked whether the Bidayuh community would urge the government to grant them with a senator-ship  post.

“It would be quite unfair for a small community like us to keep asking more from the government and frankly, I think we have enough already,” added Manyin after handing over the land title grants for 468 recipients comprising of participants of SALCRA in Serian area in a ceremony held at the Kampung Bunan Gega at Jalan Mongkos near Serian here on last Monday.

On the recent appointment of Datuk Richard Riot Jaem as the Deputy President of Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP), Manyin said that Riot's appointment is an honor for the Bidayuh community.

“I wish to convey my heartiest congratulation for him to his recent appointment as SUPP’s Deputy President and yes, his appointment brings a great honour for us, the Bidayuh community,” said Manyin when asked by reporters to comment on Riot’s appointment.

“It is good news for us as this is the first time a Bidayuh is appointed as the deputy president in a Chinese-based party,” he added.

Riot, who is currently the Deputy Foreign Minister and also the Member of Parliament for Serian was appointed as SUPP’s deputy president at the party’s Triennial Delegates Conference (TDC) last weekend.
