In the first volume, he explains why he joins the Sarawak
DAP, not any of the State Barisan Nasional component party.
"The first volume is an introduction of my reasons
for joining the DAP and my intention to spread the DAP to the Dayak areas and
why the Dayaks should be embracing the party," he told reporters at the
launch at the State DAP headquarters.
He said the second and subsequent volumes will be
containing "Ensera Empulu" or folktales.
"It is a continuation of my Ensera Empulu because I
could not finish it while I was working with RTM Iban service.
"My contract with RTM was terminated before I could
finish with the folktales," he said.
Thomas or better known as TTL has a large followings
among the Iban radio listeners in the rural areas.
"We will be distributing the CDs for sale throughout
Sarawak as Mr Thomas has a huge followings of avid listeners and many have
asked him to continue with his Ensera Empulu," Sarawak DAP chairman Chong
Chieng Jen said at the launch.
He said the party is sponsoring the cost of producing the
CDs.
Chong said it is part of the Sarawak DAP "Impian"
Initiative to reach to the rural population.
