About 100 Iban land owners from Kpg. Sungai Lingkau, Melanjok and Sekendu in Simunjan today (5 May) mounted a blockade to prevent workers of Hydroflow and Melur Gemilang from entering their NCR land.
A manager from the company promised the landowners who maintained the blockade not to enter the area, and to bring out all the machinery.
The landowners expected the manager to lodge a report with the Police and they also expected to be arrested in the defence of their land from being encroached into.
Hydroflow and Melur Gemilang are owned by Yang Berhormat Naroden Majais, the Simunjan State assemblyman. He is known as the "Simunjan King of oil palm", owning more than 48,000 acres of land including NCR land of oil palm.
Meanwhile, six longhouses in the Kpg. Samalatong/Kepayang area will meet on Wednesday night to reject the offer of DD Plantations and Pelita Holdings Sdn. Bhd. to develop their NCR land. The agreement has already been signed between 46 longhouse chiefs with the DD Plantations and Pelita Holdings Sdn. Bhd.
But the landowners from these six longhouses prefer their NCR land to be developed by SALCRA where their equity participation is 70% as compared with 30% given by DD plantations and Pelita. - The Broken Shield

GBU BS for the info.
Yes,the Ibans MUST stand up and take this into their own hands becos this 'foreigners' are bend on stealing the lands that the dayaks depend on.All effort must be make to ensure that this stealing must stop.
The rich towkay becomes richer and the dayaks are left with nothing but to guard the oil palm plantation.
Iban terus diindik...Kaya terus kaya, bala iban ke merinsa terus merinsa... Cruel 'Person'...Cruel Government... Bangkitlah wahai bangsaku...Bangkitlah...
The plantation companies encroached into NCR lands were given licences by the government. Then the landowners mounted a blockade to prevent workers of the plantation companies from entering their NCR lands are alleged to commit a criminal offence and subjected to be arrested by the police.
The law is as such, but where is the fairness?
1BlackMalaysia today in Perak
The YB always taking NCR land and owned them for themself. How the government approve the project without clear sign from the NCR land owner,..i meant the true NCR owner. Dont let the dayak become JAGA for oil palm plantation which suppose to be their oil palm palntation.
but this ibans never develop this ncr land.....when others try to develop this land the ibans suddenly appear from somewhr n claim it their own land...i stay in sarawak few years...n i saw this things in front of my eyes...lazy ibans drink alchohol all day long
