I quote here what Masing said, " Robust ethnic politics don`t work.We thought of only Dayak, Dayak and Dayak. I was born in that atmosphere; I grew up in that culture.We must go for multi-racialism, not only be in rhetoric, it must be substance and practices. I was convinced that the Dayak must fight for Dayak. If we don`t do that nobody else. I was wrong".<br /><br />So, from the statement by PRS president himself, the party is not fighting for dayak cause. If he is now talking about fighting for dayak cause, it is all rubbish.Suntatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-37943105440717240642009-05-13T12:10:00.000+08:002009-05-13T12:10:00.000+08:00i,being a dayak iban myself,felt very disappointed...i,being a dayak iban myself,felt very disappointed with YANG BODOH(YB)Entulu said.Now the whole people of Malaysia know what are our Dayak leaders up to.Looking atMalaysian history,there was no leader of any race in Malaysia who called for the abolishment of their race identity,except this Japanese Encipilitis(joseph entulu) and a few other balls licking self proclaimed Dayak leaders.My advise to Entulu is simple-if you do not want to be known as a Dayak,thats fine,just declare yourself as a chinese,or malay or an indian,since he said that only this three races were recognised in Malaysia,BUT DO NOT show your stupidity to the whole nation because for sure there are plenty of smart Iban in Malaysia. Even how much you want to lick "your bosses" ball,never embarras the Dayaks.You were brought in to PBDS by Dayak leaders and became a minister also because you are a Dayak(now of course no more a Dayak) but then you condemned those Dayak.Your brain is definitely not in your "upper head" but at the "other lower head",what a disgrace to see you around.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-78177351800790694062009-05-13T11:17:00.000+08:002009-05-13T11:17:00.000+08:00why the Orang Ulu DO NOT celebrate Gawai Dayak?

But sad to hear, Entulu a dayak Iban has made use of his position as deputy minister to suggest to the government to erase the term `dayak` from history.He must be condemned for his irresponsible move.<br /><br />Let me put it in general. I am not pointing it to a particular person.This is a type of selfish politician who has no vision and mission in his struggle to help his own community, only to serve himself to get employment, wealth and position. How much of your wealth and position can you bring?

The most appropriate thing for Entulu to do now is to apologize to dayak community for his insulting statement instead of blaming the newspaper for misquoting him.<br /><br />No body would believe him that he never said the word `dayak` if you look at the sentences he used. Quote " the term could connote the community was uncivilised, uncouth and low class". What Entulu means here is `dayak` and not `dan lain-lain` as claimed by him.<br /><br />True enough, Business Ethics Institute of Malaysia (BIEM) in its survey report alleged that most government ministers (80 per cent) were not telling the truth.<br /><br />Since Entulu is a senior member of PRS, the public would like to know whether PRS is fighting for dayak cause? I do not have the party`s constitutiion with me, but I understand that PRS emblem is a Dayak warrior`s shield decorated with traditional Dayak design. If Entulu doesn`t like the term`dayak`, he should suggest to PRS supreme council to amend the party`s constitution by deleting all the words `dayak` and `dayak` symbols in its constitution, so that the dayak will know the party is not fighting for dayak cause.Agomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241154554081401786.post-66280676352212792532009-05-12T08:55:00.000+08:002009-05-12T08:55:00.000+08:00I do not find anything denigrating in the term "Da...I do not find anything denigrating in the term "Dayak" nor do most other Sarawakians.In fact sometimes I explain to people I live in Sarawak, East Malaysia ...

Your defintion of "dayak" quote "conveys negative connotations like being uncivilised, uncouth and low class" is exactly that. A word of advise, its still not too late for you to learn how to use the english dictionary unless of course you have problems with spelling. There are many of us dayaks who are highly schooled and most willing to help you out. We will gladly sponsor you a dictionary if your ministry can't affort one. Please don't embarass us. Plain and simple, "Dayaks" are indigeneous tribes of Borneo and that includes Kalimantan. To find Borneo please look in a map.I am a proud Dayak but if you want to be a "Lakia" so be it.Apai Semalaunoreply@blogger.com
