謝銘聖牙呼籲沙巴州人民在第13屆 大選中膽敢地用手中一票支民聯執 政

民聯公正黨下南南區州議席候選人謝銘聖牙科醫生，呼籲沙巴州人民在第13屆大選中，膽敢地用手中一票支民聯執政5年及帶來改變。 他對自21日展開拜票活動以來，所到之處到均得民眾的熱情支持，而感到鼓舞。 他表示選手將支持投給民聯，因為他們對國陣已感到失望，及選手稱國陣已沒有時間解決他們自己製造的問題，已經受夠了，是時候換新政府！ 謝銘聖指出，正如民聯已在如檳城、雪蘭莪和其他一些州，已證明了執政成績。 也是公正黨中委及沙巴州聯委會秘書的謝氏，今日在發布文告中這麼指出。 他指民聯已較國陣提前了一個月（3月24日）公佈競選宣言，在民聯為沙巴所提出的40個競選宣言和預算案，相比之下，沙巴國陣競選宣言顯然較虛偽和缺乏遠見。事實上，國陣抄襲民聯在聯邦及州的競選宣言。 在非法移民和安全問題，謝銘聖指國陣現在承諾遵守皇家調查委員會的建議，以解決非法移民的問題，這是具諷刺性。 他說，國陣本身是這些問題的起源，無論它是專案或遺漏，均均能適當施行移民和公民登記的政策。 他也說，實事上，國陣有很多機會可通過國家專案委員會，聯邦特別部隊和其他的各個委員會來解決問題。然而，問題仍然存在，沙巴人民繼續受苦。 謝氏指國陣在受到民聯及沙巴人民的壓力下，成立皇家調查委員會調查非法移民問題，但在國陣政府的執政下，非法移民、安全和主權的問題，顯示是失敗了。 他表示國陣成立皇調查委員會的態度令人懷疑，人民不會對國陣開出空頭支票而上當。 謝銘聖說，民聯已在國家議程上將清理沙巴公民登記名單，以遏制提供偽造身份證或國籍的狹益及腐敗政治動機。

Deplorable state of the Inanam Market – A Potential Haven for Water Borne Diseases Affecting Traders.

Dr Roland Chia 
PKR Candidate for N13 Inanam

PKR Candidate for N13 Inanam – Dr Roland Chia Ming Shen who is also PKR National Supreme Council member cum PKR Sabah Secretary has received many complaints against the authorities for their failure in properly managing one of the markets in the city i.e. the Inanam Market. How could this happened since the rating area comes under the capital city of Kota Kinabalu? A group of traders lamented to Dr Roland Chia.

Look at the deplorable state of the market– uneven, water clogged and filthy  pavement of the market. Such deplorable state can lead to water borne diseases and it will be an occupational hazard to all traders who have to face these deplorable situation everyday. Traders & Patrons had to bear with this since its inception way back in 2009 or even earlier. This should not happened after 50 years of BN rule. As a result, the Traders are hoping for Change for a better business environment.

PKR /PR will pledge for a clean , well maintained and business friendly environment for the Inanam Market once elected into power. We will ensure Inanam Market will be turned into a tourist destination whereby tourists locally and abroad can come and enjoy the diversity of products that are being sold in the market. This directly will capitulate  Inanam town into one of the tourists attraction in the west coast of Sabah.

Walkabout in Weekly Inanam Tamu

PKR Candidate for N13 Inanam – Dr Roland Chia Ming Shen who is also PKR National Supreme Council member cum PKR Sabah Secretary did a walkabout in the weekly Inanam Tamu this morning. Inanam Tamu falls on every Wednesdays of the week.

Many traders voiced concern over sluggish sales with lesser patrons patronizing the weekly tamu. High costs of living and also higher costs of doing business. Everything has gone up in prices yet traders have to try to maintain their prices of products. Many traders are actually villagers from afar as far as the Kokol Mountains who spent much in travelling down to Inanam to sell their products

One trader even lamented , this should not happened after 50 years of BN rule.

After 50 years of independence - Malaysians fighting losing battle with household debts despite increase of household income & red

PKR National Supreme Council Member cum PKR Sabah Secretary – Dr Roland Chia is saddened by the brutal fact that Malaysians are losing the battle with household debts. It is a fact that Malaysians have a high household debt of 76% of Gross domestic product (GDP) .If this dangerous trends were to continue , should there be an economic slowdown or recession, many Malaysian households would be hit and the impact on financial institution would be devastating also. Despite the Household Income Survey 2012 shows that there is reduction of poverty rate and increase of household income for the average Malaysians, Malaysians are still finding hard to cope with spiraling cost of living ,  increase in debt and lack of disposable income to spend on.

According to Bank Negara, household loans for residential properties in January 2013 jumped 42.4% compared to decline of 0.3% in December 2012. Credit card debt, which had been declining from October to December 2012 rose by 28.6% in January 2013. The escalating property prices throughout the country Malaysia have also resulted in Malaysians have to take out higher loans. Another alarming fact is  that personal loans which went up by 73.4% in January 2013 against a decline of 2.9%. Malaysians have also borrowed heavily to buy securities as loans – it was recorded a rise by 85.1% compared to 10.7% in December.

On a consumer point of view, many Malaysians spend more that they earn .The sad truth is also that now Malaysians are trapped in increasing debt as reflected in higher personal loan and credit card debt. Many have already turned to illegal money lenders or pawnshops. Rising of car and property prices must be contained as for a typical household, loan repayment for a car and home can swallow 50% of a borrower’s monthly wage. Prices of homes and cars are rising faster than income levels. A long term solution must be found before the household debt burden on the economy becomes untenable. These should not have happened to Malaysians given the fact that our country is rich with vast resources of oil, gas, timber, palm oil and vast parcel of land with just 28 million of Malaysians. Finally, the rakyat must resolve to do much soul searching- after 50 years of independence in this forthcoming 13^th General Election in Sabah & Malaysia through the ballot box.

Fire outbreak at Taman Chemei Commercial Shophouses, Lido Penampang

PKR Sabah – In depth Investigation Urgently  Needed by Local  Authorities on  fire outbreaks in Kapayan .

PKR Sabah Secretary  - Dr Roland Chia urged the local authorities to conduct an in depth study and investigation on the root cause of the recent fire outbreaks, the most recent ones was this morning in Lido, Taman Chemei Commercial Shophouses along Jalan Penampang. 

PKR Sabah has highlighted and urged the authorities to investigate since October last year 2012. So far there was no new guidelines and advisory notice released by the authorities. Dr Roland Chia was making this plea while visiting the site of the fire outbreak. Dr Roland Chia was also relieved that nobody was seriously hurt and the damaged was confined to a ground floor shoplot without affecting the adjacent business of the neighbouring shoplots.

Nevetheless – Dr Roland Chia commended the swift action by BOMBA in arriving at the destination upon receiving alert calls although victims waited for more than half hour, mainly due to traffic jam from the morning rush hour. An earlier arrival may have reduce the damaged caused by the fire. It was disclosed by bystanders that the fire started by sparks from the existing electrical wiring connected to the shop. Therefore - Dr Roland Chia advised shop owners to conduct regular maintenance especially older commercial and housing lots, where by old electrical wirings could well be the root cause of recent fire outbreaks.

More than 90% cannot afford to purchase homes for themselves - PKR Sabah Roland Chia

PKR National Supreme Council member cum PKR Sabah Secretary – Dr Roland Chia  is very  concern with the recent online survey conducted in Feb 2013 by a reputable property group – which indicated that an extremely high number of Malaysians find houses beyond their reach. The online poll is indeed an alarming figure given the fact that our country Malaysia is a resource rich country with oil, gas, palm oil & vast parcel of land with only a population of 28 million citizens.

The online survey poll indicated that 90% are saying that the current property prices are unaffordable. 69% of respondent polled were calling for more affordable housing – which is a great concern for house buyers. While 16% has appeared to have given up on looking for homes as their house prices is beyond their purchasing capabilities. There is a indication that property prices rises faster than the income of house buyers.

Dr Roland Chia was very concern because more than 60% of those polled in the survey falls into the lower middle income and middle income group that has annual income of RM30,000 – RM80,000. If this situation were to worsen- then there will be a “middle income trap” whereby the wages of the middle income group will not be able to finance basic necessities like housing - the first home for themselves or even their childrens’ education. 

When we compare our GDP per capita with other countries,South Korea’s GDP per capita is US$16,450, Singapore US$34,346, Hong Kong US$29,559, while Malaysia is still at US$7,469. It must be remembered that in the early 1970s, we were at parity with these countries. In five years’ time they would be even further ahead. The rakyat must resolve to do much soul searching- what is the reason for the disparity of GDP per capita after 50 years of independence in this forthcoming 13th Edition of General Election in Sabah & Malaysia.

Poor Trunks roads linking to palm oil plantations in KK- Sandakan- Tawau- Interior -Sabah hampering the palm oil industry.

PKR National Supreme Council Member cum PKR SABAH secretary Dr Roland Chia Ming Shen has received many complaints from OIL PALM plantation owners in Sabah facing increasing cost of doing business due to the slow trunk road upgrade between major towns. Many have suffered from slow transport of oil palms to the ports for shipments to harvest fruit bunches for almost a decade.

The government should speed up upgrading of trunk roads here to handle heavy loads of produce. We now face congestion problems," lamented one palm oil planter based in Sandakan during the meeting with Dr Roland Chia PKR Sabah Secretary. Dr Roland Chia reminded the authorities that – do not forget that Sabah produces about a third of Malaysia's palm oil exports. The trunk roads linking Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan, Lahad Datu and Tawau are congested.

The road system is bad, it needs to be upgraded," Oil palm plantation owners in Sabah pay cess to the Malaysian Palm Oil Board, income and corporate tax to the Finance Ministry &7.5 per cent sales tax to Sabah government which amount to about RM1 Billion annually. The palm oil planters in Sabah & Malaysia pay so much tax to the government, (but) what do they (we) get in return? We hear announcements that hundreds of million ringgit had been allocated to build and upgrade roads here but ... until today, implementation remains to be seen," lamented by one of the planters.

According to Dr Roland Chia, in 2010,the Rural and Regional Development Ministry had promised that it will spend about RM2.1 billion to provide rural basic infrastructures in Sabah and Sarawak under the National Key Result Areas (NKRA) this year. The ministry had said the allocation also involved the completion of 2009 projects to build new roads and provide water and electricity supply. Of the total, about RM928 million would be allocated to Sabah.

For NKRA's rural road projects, Sabah was allocated RM134.9 million to complete 40 of last year's projects and another RM56.8 million to implement 36 new roads. Now is 2013, the trunk roads are still in the state of dire straits where chronic road congestions occurring involving private , commercial vehicles travelling from the west coast to east coast of Sabah. There are already economic loss,
