Sarawak's outdated Adoption Ordinance, Administration of Estates Ordinance need to be updated and amended
Irene Mary Chang
Oi Lin (Bukit Assek)
Outdated
Legislations
Tuan Speaker, I also take this opportunity to bring to
the attention of the State Government a few pieces of legislation which need
review and amendment in order to keep abreast with the needs of the people. It
is said that Law is a living thing. It is not set in stone. And as with all
living things, the Legislative has to continually make sure that the law
governing the people stays relevant.
In Sarawak, the
adopted children would have the Adoption Certificate with the word “adopted
child” stated on them. This is unsatisfactory because it ignores the realities
of life and the emotive elements of both the adopted children and adoptive
parents.- Irene Mary Chang Oi Lin

SUPP is firm and consistent against Hudud Law
By Datuk Sebastian Ting,
Piasau state assemblyman
Hudad Law is a very sensitive and important issue to us
all in Sarawak. We are very concerned and feeling very uncomfortable that a
Private Member Bill proposed by PAS Party President was tabled in Parliament
yesterday. It was deferred to next session.
Things have changed and some people who voted for the opposition including DAP are now
looking at DAP to see whether they would be making an apology. I doubt they
would. - Datuk Sebastian Ting
Sarawak has been taken for a ride for over 50 years by Putrajaya
By See Chee How
In presenting the Supply (2017) Bill 2016, Right
Honourable Chief Minister had laid emphasis that, for the total provision for
development expenditure for 2017, RM5.646 billion will be funded by the State
while RM282 million will be financed by the Federal government through
reimbursable loans and grants.
Needless to say, Sarawak is the biggest contributor in
terms of oil and gas production and petroleum revenue earning for the
Federation. But Sarawak’s revenue earning from the oil and gas
production was only a small fraction of that of the Federation, being just the
diminutive royalty.- See Chee How
