Upko resolutions include education autonomy
PENAMPANG September 26, 2011: The United Pasokmomogun KadazanDusun Murut Organization’s (Upko) 13th triennial delegates congress yesterday passed six resolutions for the party’s leadership to follow up on.
Among the resolutions are the need for Sabah and Sarawak to be given autonomy in managing and addressing their respective education issues as well as the setting up of a KDM higher learning institute.
Upko Women urged the Federal Government to give full power to the education directors in the two states, to allow them to decide on the education issues in their respective states, including the recruitment of new teachers.
The movement also wants a special panel from Sabah and Sarawak to be appointed in the Teacher Education Division, and priority to be given to local natives in the recruitment of trainee teachers in overcoming the problem of getting teachers to serve in rural areas in east Malaysia.
They said that while the 40:30:30 quota for the recruitment of teachers from Semenanjung, Sabah and Sarawak was acceptable, there were no guarantees that this quota was being observed, as the recruitment panel was made up only of education officers from Semenanjung, with no representation from Sabah and Sarawak.
The movement also urged the BN Government to expedite effort to get untrained attachment teachers (GSTT), whose services have been terminated, reinstated toward helping address the shortage of teachers in Sabah.
Another resolution, which was tabled by Upko’s Citizenship Bureau chairman Datuk Donald Mojuntin, called on the government to stop renewing the IMM13 documents given to Indonesians and Filipino refugees as there is no longer a need to do so.
The relationship between Malaysia and Indonesia is back to normal, so the governments of both countries should initiate talks instead to discuss deportation process for their citizens,” he said, adding that in the case of the Filipinos, IMM13 renewal will be done only for those who are willing to be employed as factory and plantation workers in peninsular Malaysia.
Upko’s Komulakan movement tabled a resolution on the power sharing concept within Barsian Nasional while its Youth movement called on the BN leadership to increase the number of seats for Upko in the 13th general election.
Upko vice president Datuk Senator Maijo Mahap, who chairs the party’s Legal and Land Issues Bureau, tabled a resolution on land and native customary rights (NCR), calling for a more transparent procedure in processing and approving land applications.
The party urged the government to cancel the approvals for lands that have been given to companies in order to give the natives a fair opportunity to practise their right to own land, gazette native villages located in forest reserves as settlement areas, and ensure the ratio of native title lands remain more than other type of lands.

Give more power to Sabah Education Dept: Director
'GIVE SABAH MORE CONTROL’ – MASIDI
SABAH CATAT JUMLAH TERTINGGI ADUAN BERHUBUNG MASALAH TANAH DI NEGARA INI
Sabah dan Sarawak patut diberi kuasa autonomi untuk menentukan sistem pendidikan mereka.
BalasPadamHarap kerajaan pusat akan meluluskan tuntutan ini.
BalasPadamkalau resolusi2 tersebut dapat dipenuhi maka masalah2 kritikal yang dihadapi oleh Sabah pasti dapat diselesaikan.
BalasPadamsetuju dengan Ren, jika resolusi2 tersebut dipenuhi mungkin banyak isu yang berkaitan akan dapat diselesaikan..
BalasPadamharap Sabah dan Sarawak akan diberikan autonomi untuk menguruskan sistem pendidikan sendiri..
BalasPadamSukatan pelajaran memang harus diselaraskan tapi sistem pengurusan pelajaran di Sabah dan Sarawak biarlah diurus oleh kerajaan negeri. Kerajaan negeri rasanya lebih mengetahui keperluan Sabah dalam sistem pelajaran.
BalasPadamlebih baik PATI2 yang ada di Sabah pergi ke semenanjung.
BalasPadamsemoga Sabah dan sarawak dberi kuasa dalam menentukan sistem pendidikan mereka.
BalasPadamMasalah kritikan yang berkaitan dengan isu tanah adat dan PATI perlu diselesaikan dengan segera. Jika tidak isu2 ni akan bertambah parah di masa hadapan.
BalasPadamrecruitment of new teachers should be given more priority for locals.
BalasPadamEducation should be put under the state government jurisdiction & the federal ministry in Sabah should be manned by those from Sabahan.
BalasPadamMemang sepatutnya itu adalah tanggungjawab state, harap tanggungjawab itu diberikan kepada state.
BalasPadamBeri peluang kepada rakyat Sabah untuk pelan2 memimpin negeri mereka sendiri.
BalasPadamWe will never know the outcome until we are given the autonomy power.
BalasPadamDekat2 PRU nanti, kita desak lebih agar diberi kuasa autonomi. Desakan ini bukanlah yang berunsurkan negatif. Mungkin akan ada jawapan positif daripada federal.
BalasPadamI totally in!
BalasPadamMasalah pendidikan di Sabah bukan lagi satu isu baru.
BalasPadammaksud berkata...
BalasPadamMasalah pendidikan di Sabah bukan lagi satu isu baru.
Exactly. Sabah should hold its education system. Why must given out to the outside people?
Sabah should have its education policy back.
BalasPadamBagus, ini yang harus dititikberatkan.
BalasPadamPATI di Sabah juga perlu ditangani. Jangan biarkan PATI di Sabah berkuasa.
BalasPadamBerikan kuasa autonomi kepada kerajaan Negeri dalam bidang pendidikkan. Ini bagi memastikan kerajaan negeri dapat menyelesaikan masalah pendidikan yang terdapat di negeri itu.
BalasPadamKalau kita mengikut prosedur sekarang maka tidak mustahil kelewatan pemanbah baik sekolah berlaku. Dan peluang pekerjaan sebagai guru juga berkuarangan kerana kebanyakkan diberikan kepada guru semenanjung.
BalasPadamMemang patut pun Sabah & Sarawak diberi kuasa autonomi untuk menentukan sistem pendidikan. Ya lah siapa lagi yang lebih tahu kalau bukan tempat sendiri kan.
BalasPadamBaca idea/cadangan mereka ni nampak macam OK. Rasanya kalau dilakukan pasti membuahkan hasil yang pistif kan.
BalasPadamSemoga perkara ini mendapat perhatian sewajarnya demi masa depan yang lebih baik.
BalasPadam"Upko Women urged the Federal Government to give full power to the education directors in the two states, to allow them to decide on the education issues in their respective states, including the recruitment of new teachers."
BalasPadamFor better control and efficiency of the system and management, hoping the federaol would highly consider the proposal of authorised more power to the directors.
"appointed in the Teacher Education Division, and priority to be given to local natives in the recruitment of trainee teachers in overcoming the problem of getting teachers to serve in rural areas in east Malaysia."
BalasPadamFederal should come with prompt and more strategic plan to address the issue where the local native still do not have chances to learn and study. It's harmful to the future.
GSTT yang tamat tempoh seharus diatur dan diberi pekerjaan secepat mungkin untuk mengisi kekosongan di sekolah-sekolah. Win-win-situation.
BalasPadamKementerian seharus berusaha lebih giat terutama sistem pendidikan di Sabah yang jauh berkurangan. Sebanyak 20% dari jumlah penduduk di Sabah masih tiada peluang untuk bersekolah. Jumlah ini amat terkejut dan memandangkan golongan ini akan menjadi buta-huruf di masa akan datang.
BalasPadam"a resolution on land and native customary rights (NCR), calling for a more transparent procedure in processing and approving land applications."
BalasPadamBanyak perkara yang berkaitan dengan prosedur permohonan dan approval terutama yang berkaitan dengan kerajaan seharus lebih berbuka, adil dan amanah.
untuk melakukan penambahbaikkan, perlu ada perubahan.. apa salahnya memberikan kuasa penuh kepada kerajaan negeri dalam bidang pendidikan jika kerajaan persekutuan sendiri tidak mampu menyelesaikan masalah2 berkaitan dengan pendidikan di Sabah...
BalasPadamThere are a huge number of local natives that don't have any chances to go school. Government shoudl competent to adress the issue and be able to resolve and improve the situation.
BalasPadam"Upko Women urged the Federal Government to give full power to the education directors in the two states, to allow them to decide on the education issues in their respective states, including the recruitment of new teachers."
BalasPadamWe urge that Federal to give more authority power to the local to make decision and control power. With these to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of his/her management.
GSTT yang tamat tempoh seharus dihantar untuk mengisi kekosongan.
BalasPadamTidak dapat nak bayangkan negara demokrasi dan berteknologi tinggi ini masih ada golongan besar yang tidak berpeluang bersekolah. Keadaan ini memang merisikokan negara kami jika tidak diperbaiki serta merta. Golongan ini lah yang akan mengganti generasi tua, susah bayangkan mereka ini buta huruf dan cam mana untuk menyesuaikan diri di masyarakat yang giat saingannya.
BalasPadamSistem pendidikan di Sabah masih banyak perlu diusahakan lagi sebab masih banyak kekurangan. Golongan native yang tidak bersekolah seharus mencari cara penyelesaiannya.
BalasPadamsemoga masalah2 seperti PATI dan NCR dapat ditangani dan diatasi oleh kerajaan dengan jayanya
BalasPadamThe movement also urged the BN Government to expedite effort to get untrained attachment teachers (GSTT), whose services have been terminated, reinstated toward helping address the shortage of teachers in Sabah.
BalasPadamsemoga mereka yang dilantik ke guru tetap dapat mengatasi masalah kekurangan guru di Sabah
"resolutions are the need for Sabah and Sarawak to be given autonomy in managing and addressing their respective education issues as well as the setting up of a KDM higher learning institute." - semoga pemberian 'kuasa penuh' ini akan dikecapi oleh rakyat Sabah dan Sarawak dalam masa terdekat nanti
BalasPadamsemoga kerajaan persekutuan dapat memberi pertimbangan sewajarnya mengenai perkara2 yang berbangkit di atas
BalasPadam"...called on the government to stop renewing the IMM13 documents given to Indonesians and Filipino refugees as there is no longer a need to do so."
BalasPadamsetuju dengan cadangan beliau.
