That’s why the Ibans tend to ‘dominate’ SDNU because they are willing to speak their mind without fear or favour. <BR/><BR/>If the Bidayuhs want to be recognise as equal partners in SDNU, they must be willing to be part of the SDNU’s struggle…<BR/><BR/>We need Bidayuhs leaders in SDNU to be more vocal to give constructive ideas and criticisms to the Govt and not act like passengers. We need them to rally together with their Iban brothers and unite under SDNU to speak towards common a vision and mission. Only then, they can speak as one voice i.e. Dayak voice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-55026389216635649872008-12-08T19:19:00.000+08:002008-12-08T19:19:00.000+08:00Though I am happy for this historical occasion, I ...Though I am happy for this historical occasion, I am disappointed that the writer was blind not to have noticed the presence of Dr Patau Rubis, another Dayak leader.<BR/>We can only be united if we stop calling ourselves Ibans, but Dayak Iban or better still Dayaks.<BR/>In Kalimantan there are officially no Ibans and Bidayuhs, but ONLY Dayaks.<BR/>Throughout the official speeches, the various Sarawakian Dayaks always mentioned IBANS, where the appropriate term should be DAYAKS. I can safely categorise them, including the writer of this post, as actors in Taib's script of dividing and ruling over us Dayaks.<BR/>Are we for Dayak Unity? Or are we still actors in Taib's script for Dayak disunity?<BR/>Alim GA MidehUnited States Of All-Borneohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11104780326148463923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-34989658497807671852008-12-08T12:50:00.000+08:002008-12-08T12:50:00.000+08:00I am happy to learn that the Dayak Governor from K...I am happy to learn that the Dayak Governor from Kalimantan and his group were entertained by Datuk Seri Daniel Tajem and hiswife at their residence on Saturday.<BR/><BR/>It's the beginning of a giant step to forge closer Dayak ties in Borneo.<BR/><BR/>And I hope it will help to mend the broken shield caused not by the Dayaks but by others who bear illwill towards the original community on the island that we all share.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-68704757312345129672008-12-08T11:56:00.000+08:002008-12-08T11:56:00.000+08:00Let's hope the rekindled spirit of Dayakism will b...Let's hope the rekindled spirit of Dayakism will burn on and on until victory.And victory is within sight.Dayaks especially Ibans must wake up to realise they have been marginalised far too long by one man.The Malays and Melanaus are going people just as the Chinese and others.

In Sarawak, our culture has deteriorated to such a level that many dayaks in position of power would stoop so low as to exploit their community for the interest of third parties. The bottom line is, there is so much distrust amongst the dayaks. Dato Daniel has contributed immensely to Sarawak. Having known Datuk Daniel, I for one see him as one true dayak and someone who could still save the dayaks from poverty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-27699243256172210532008-12-07T20:54:00.000+08:002008-12-07T20:54:00.000+08:00Turn this gathering into a force to ignite the fir...Turn this gathering into a force to ignite the fire that will burn all traitors of this land,the land of the Hornbills.<BR/>Let this force be enough to trigger a change that will overthrow Taib.<BR/>Let this be a chain reaction that will lead to the rise of dayakism.<BR/>Yes,we can!NEILhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02897633753448797927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-45437844736349072212008-12-07T18:30:00.000+08:002008-12-07T18:30:00.000+08:00I am glad to see Dato Seri Daniel Tajem resurfacin...I am glad to see Dato Seri Daniel Tajem resurfacing in Sarawak politics. Sarawak needs moderate leaders like him. He will, either as a CM or Governor, once more instill pride in Sarawak, a pride that has been undermined by you-know-who.chapchaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048180236421500719noreply@blogger.com
