Dayaks can rise up again provided there is a Dayaks willing to sacrifice his life and comfort for the sack of the community. He must be God fearing. He must have Christ in him. And he must not have hatred against his political rivals and enemies.

To be a true leader there are three major vices to overcome,- cowardice, betrayal and incompetence.

The person must be brave, not a coward to make decisions which can be unpopular to himself and his party. He must be ready to have enemies, which may cost or put his life on line at times.

He must not betray his people and country. But most often we have leaders who betrayed the country by not upholding the constitution and the law. It is for this reason we lost our country and then we lost our oil and gas and also NCR land

The leader must be competent. How could the minorities entrust you to run the country when you are only good at organising Pekit Kumang and Pekit Keling only? You had left your Rumah Dayak in Satok not built or completed for decades. This is incompetency! PBK had made lots of noise about it.

Prof Dr Ayum seems could not see any one could fit into the shoe. If a Dayak can fit into the shoe, l am sure MM will pass the baton in PBB to him. I am also sure the Chinese will support.

They will support because of mutual interest. If Sarawak could not be handled properly or wouldn't do well, every one will suffer.

There will be high unemployment, business with drop and agriculture not moving. Country can face huge debts and can even go bankrupt!

We are worried because until now we could not produce enough food for the population. Food is a weapon in modern warfare.

We're already more to than sixty years in Malaysia but, it seems that we still don't have chicken that lay enough eggs. We have ducks that don't know how to lay many eggs to feed the demands of our local market.

Our poultry and pork and even rice are imported.

We have to be realistic. We should only support people who are capable to run a country.

Running a country is running a business. The country must be able to make profit and able to provide employment

We don't want to be like Liberia under President George Weah, FIFA Footballer of the Year, which caused the oil rich Liberia into economic choas. The same also went to Venezuela under Hugo Chavez which make the money almost useless in the country and people became lazy because of uncontrollable giving away of oil money to citizens to stay in power.

It is like giving away free chicken wings beers and money in our local politics in order to stay in power. The economy can collapse if we continue to do this. Are you aware that about 400,000 Dayaks are now in Singapore and in Malaya seeking livelihood there? In Malaya, many were converted and that's how Dayaks will slowly lose their identity and culture. We don't want Dayaks to become foreigners and squatters in own land. This can cause another May 13, if we don't know how to handle the country

A political leader must be responsible for his actions and he must have foresight and vision.

If PBK is the government, we know how to handle the economy and to capture world market.

At the moment, the government is rich, some politicians are filthy rich and the system makes the capitalists richer and richer at the expense of working class people, who are their slaves now.
