Make good your pledges, Baru tells Muhyiddin



 "Common sense will tell us that it is because all the decisions and selections are made by bureaucrats and technocrats in Peninsular Malaysia who do not have the interests of Sarawak at heart. " 

KUCHING, Feb 13, 2015: Sarawak Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) chairman Baru Bian has told Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to make good his pledge to repair and rebuild dilapidated schools in Sarawak and Sabah, and not to wait for elections to be called.

"The allocation of RM1 billion pledged in February last year to repair and rebuild 600 dilapidated schools in two states appears to have just an empty talk," he said today.
