The worse road in Sarawak

If you have been frequently travelling along the road linking Selangau and Mukah, probably you would know better what I mean in this articles. Needless for me to explaine further. However, not every readers have experienced that dreadful journey or aware of the conditions of the road that I am talking about. Actually, this is a century old issue, which has been pending for quite some times. However, for humanitarian sake and a sense of responsibility as the citizen of Sarawakian, I feel obliged to highlight to world about the plight of the users of the road concerned. The conditions of this road is so poor that I really pitty my Kancil when I travelled to Dalat recently during my not-so-pleasant journey. Imagine the damages that the road has done to the vehicles passing by all this while.

I notice that, there are some repairs work going on, but the works are done at a snail paces. The reconstructions of the new ones seems to be meeting the dead end and the work has stopped for no obvious reasons. As you may notice, below are the pictures I took along the way.





Where are all the revenues from our oil and timber exports? Understandably, all those revenues goes to the federal government and used by them to build better roads and sky scrappers for themselves. What can the 5% royalty do to improve our infrastructures? Nothing much. We deserved more than that. These revenues should be used by the state government to build better roads and ammenities for Sarawakian.

So, fellow Sarawakians please wake up. It's just the right time to have a change. Come next elections, please cast your vote wisely this time. Use your eyes and see around. Use your head and think.
