LAHAD DATU: The Barisan Nasional (BN) government has been urged to return Felda Sahabat to its settlers to meet its original objective.
SAPP Assistant Secretary-General and Constituency Liaison Committee Chairman for Tungku, Datu Shuaib bin Datu Mutalib said the lands in Felda Sahabat should be developed with oil palm and the ownership of land given to the settlers in Sahabat Tungku, here.
"The main objective agreed between the State and Federal governments is that the people in Tungku who have no land and poor will be given the chance to be Felda settlers. In fact land titles of the land are to be issued to them after 15 or 20 years residing there as settlers.
"Unfortunately, the objectives did not materialise and the Federal Government did not keep its promises.
"Instead, the Federal Government has handed over Felda to a subsidiary company of Felda Holdings to be listed in Bursa Malaysia.
So who is actually gaining the profit in the buying and selling of the shares?," he asked.
Datu Shuaib said the land acreage of felda Sahabat in Tungku here is 119,000 hectares and its only has 886 settlers with 6.7 hectares each.
In light of this, he questioned where the remaining 110,000 hectares have been channeled.
"In June last year, Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Ahmad Maslan stated that Felda has no intention to take any new settlers.
"Therefore, who actually own the remaining 110,000 hectares if no new settlers are being taken in to develop the Felda land? So, what is the use of RM5 billion loans that was applied by Felda from Employees Provident Fund (EPF)?
"And then a subsidiary of Felda company known as Felda Global Venture Holding listed the lands in Bursa Malaysia," Datu Shuaib said.
He said SAPP has emphasised the need for the second generation to be given the priority as new generation settlers as listed in its land reformation policy that was launched, recently.

The state government should enforce the laws and regulations with Felda so that their objectives are reached.
ReplyDeletePaling penting kerajaan harus pastikan capai objektif mereka tanpa sebrang maslaah yang mampu menimbulkan ketegangan sebegini.
DeleteKerajaan negeri harus campur tangan untuk menjamin misi Felda tercapai.
DeleteIf Felda could not achieve what they came here to do, then they should return the lands to the settlers.
ReplyDeleteSetuju dengan Green Sabah. Kalau tak mampu capai objektif, buatlah apa yang patut. Jangan susahkan pihak lain g.
DeleteMungkin tindakan tegas patut dikenakan sebagai pengajaran juga.
DeleteSemoga perkara ini diberi perhatian sewajarnya.
ReplyDeletewajar masalah Felda diberi perhatian dan segerakan tindakan yang sewajarnya
Deleteperlu ada penjelasan daripada pihak berkitan berhubung pekara ini.
DeleteAda saja masalah yang berlaku. Pastikan perkara ini diselesaikan segera.
ReplyDeletemoga masalah ini dpt diselesaikan segera.
Deleteif all the lands given to settlers, then how about the other Felda staffs?? like G.M, A.M, supervisor, QI, Foremen, labor, clerks etc.. the unemployment in this state will definitely increased..
ReplyDeleteactually felda has managed to bring a bright future to all settlers and other felda staffs.. if you don't believe it, just go and see them at felda Sahabat lahad Datu.. if there is no Felda, then there will be no Hospital, school, police station, shopping complex, mini city, resort, etc in Tungku..
ReplyDeleteFelda is not totally failed but there are some matters that they should resolve with.
DeletePerhatian wajar harus diambil.
ReplyDelete"Therefore, who actually own the remaining 110,000 hectares if no new settlers are being taken in to develop the Felda land? So, what is the use of RM5 billion loans that was applied by Felda from Employees Provident Fund (EPF)?
ReplyDeleteFelda should look into the matter and be able to develop the land for better and continue income. What is the purpose to apply such a huge loan yet no productivity been made.
Jika Felda tidak dapat mengusahakannya rasan perlulah kembalikan semua tanah itu kepada kerajaan Negeri untuk membantu para peneroka.
ReplyDeleteLebih baik berikan saja pada kerajaan negeri untuk membantu rakyat sendiri
DeletePenoreh begitu marah akan tanggungjawab yang tidak dilaksanakan oleh Felda.
ReplyDeleteIsu ini sudah lama berlaku namun baru sekarang dibangkitkan. Pihak berkuasa perlu membantu menyelesaikan masalah ini.
ReplyDeletebagus juga kalau macam itu. Felda perlu memberikan kembali tanah yang perlu diusahakan dalam program tersebut. Ini kerana Felda tidak dapat melaksanakannya dengan sebaiknya.
ReplyDeletePasti kerajaan negeri mampu membantu rakyatnya dalam mengusahakan tanah sekiranya Felda bersetuju untuk mengembalikan kepada Sabah.
Deleteisu ini harsu diselesaikan dngan sebaiknya dan kepentingan semua pihak harus dijaga.
