25-26 Nov 2011 Datuk Chairman, thank you for allowing me, on behalf of Parti Keadilan Rakyat Sabah, to take part in this hearing.

My specific area concerns the Electoral Rolls.

1 Introduction [ i l J Datuk Chairman and YB-YB, Sabah is in a precarious situation, as far as the non-qualified names (phantom voters) on Sabah electoral rolls are concerned.

Precarious because it concerns Sabah's sovereignty within Malaysia.

No Sabah no Malaysia.

Save Sabah save Malaysia.


Ordinary Sabahans have been well informed of phantom voters since the Likas 1999 Election Petition trial against Yong Teck Lee and Election Commission (BC).

Ask any family, restaurant owner, contractor, farmer, plantation owner - ask them if they have ever employed foreigners before and later notice that these foreigners were in possession of Malaysian identity cards (lCs) and had their names on Sabah electoral rolls?
That petition Judgment stated: "the instances of non-citizens and phantom voters in the electoral roll as disclosed at the trial may well be the tip of the iceberg" (Appendix 1).

EC ignored the judgment and until today these non-citizens and phantom voters' names have not been expunged.
In the last PSC in 2006 (on Integrity), Tan Sri Bernard Dompok resigned 1 from the Chairman post because National Registration Department (NRD) refused to answer questions on ICs issued fraudulently in Sabah it was instruction from higher authority.

EC cannot refuse applications from people to become voters if they possess valid identity cards.

So let us look at these phantom ICs' numbers.


2 Phantom voters' Ie numbers Datuk Chairman, you know very well that in June 1995 Datuk Radin Malleh asked in Parliament about finding out the owners of certain old IC L j r 1 serial numbers as follows: H0288001 to H0384000 H0480001 to H0576000 H0609601 to H0610000 H0658001 to H0658200 H0658401 to H0659000 H0666001 to H0666400 The answer was that Parliament could not disclose them because it involved national secret matters.
Datuk Radin believed that these ICs were issued against our laws and Constitution, ICs issued through falsified Statutory Declarations (SD) stating that applicants were born in Sabah when in fact they were not (Appendix 2).

Datuk Chaiman, YB YB, the above IC numbers have been assigned to phantom voters, ICs issued through what was popularly known as Project Ie, though not exclusively.
Every year from 1994 till 2002 PBS submitted tens of thousands of electoral objections regarding these 2 phantom voters but BC would not listen.

Numerous Police Reports were lodged but there was also no feedback (Appendix3 and 4).

In the 1999 State general elections, all PBS candidates, including you Datuk Chairman, and me, were each given a copy of a list of phantom voters in their respective Constituencies - their names, IC numbers and Daerah Mengundi.
Your seat Tandek had few but my area Likas had 6,379 phantom voters out of around 25,000 in the roll.

And there were almost 80,000 in the Sabah certified 1998 rolls used for 1999 elections.

, , , , I J BC expunged 81,488 ICs in the certified 1999 rolls (because of much exposure during the Likas election petition trial) and they proudly announced that all phantom voters in the Sabah rolls had been removed.
The breakdown of those expunged is as follows: Doubtful identities 70,969 Double names Duel registration Doubtful military personnel Doubtful Police personnel Died Disqualified Und~age Others 3,220 5,713 742 193 60 19 8 564 (Appendix 5) Just imagine, that more than 10% of a total of about 727,000 names in the certified 1998 Sabah electoral rolls were non-qualified names.

Certainly these elections were not fair to say the least.
Actually only 20,630 of those expunged were known Project IC phantom voters' numbers.

And in the certified 2001 roll, 6,400 of them were re- 3 instated.

I lodged objections against those in Likas Constituency when the names were still in List B but it was not accepted by EC (Appendix 6).

I analysed these IC numbers - H0288001 to H0384000 and H0480001 to H0576000.

Each group had 96,000 numbers - almost 200,000 total.
Look at the graph 1 (Appendix 7) showing the percentage of old IC numbers registered on Sabah electoral ,rolls (for certified 1998, 1999, .

;,,1 .

• ',' r -: I j r l 2000 and 2001): it was noted that for the numbers between H0288001 and H0388400 only 26% were registered, while between H0480001 and H0576000 53% were registered.

The rest, for every consecutive 10,000 IC numbers, there were around 73 to 90% registered.
Every 10,000 consecutive names in the Sabah rolls consistently had 15% Chinese names, but not one was found in the 70,000 consecutive Project IC numbers.

Datuk Chairman and YB YB, this is not playing on racial sentiment as Chinese names are for Chinese or Sino-natives and other names are indistinguishable for other races.
Questions were asked in Parliament about these two anomalies: the answers were (1) it was not compulsory for every citizen to be registered as a voter and (2) it was only coincidental that there were no Chinese names in these consecutive IC numbers cited.

3 Could I find ALL the phantom voters?

I have indirect evidence that the phantom voters found and pointed out by myself was not even 50% ofthem.
For example: 4 In the certified 1999 Rolls when only new IC numbers were used (in printed fonn), there were 155,847 registered voters born in 1952 through to 1960.

Those coded 12 - Sabah-born - were more than 150,000.

The population of Sabah in 1951 was 334,141 and in 1960 it was 454,421 - an increase of around 120,000.
A few thousand of these would have been born outside Sabah, left Sabah or died, and if 80% of those remaining Sabah-bom IC holders were registered voters, Sabah-bom voters should be well below 100,000. , , I, r l However, more than 150,000 were found here - more than 50,000 additional Sabah-bom voters born in these nine years.

Of these additional ones only 23,636 were within the old IC numbers under my analysis less than 50%.
The remainder had their old IC numbers not within the numbers under my research, or only had new IC numbers (Appendix 8).

One example is an UMNO member, the Chainnan of the Islamic Welfare and Sennon Organisation of Malaysia, Sabah Division, Akjan the self proclaimed Sultan of Sulu (Appendix 9) - he was not born in Sabah and his old IC number was not within the IC numbers mentioned above.

His new IC number is coded 12.

If he was naturalised his new IC number should have been coded 71.
He set foot in Sabah in the early 70's as an illegal immigrant.

His role in the issuance of fraudulent ICs to foreigners got him arrested under ISA in 1996.

These known phantom voters, especially in the East Coast, were so numerous that in 1999 two State Constituencies with KadazanDusun Murut (KDM) majority (Sook and Langkon) were replaced by two in the East Coast namely Kalabakan and Senallang.
And in 2004 when twelve 5 new State seats were added to the existing 48, seven of them were with phantom voters in large numbers, or excised from old Constituencies with huge number of them: Karambunai and Tanjong Aru from around Likas and Petagas, Gum Gum, Tunku from Lahad Datu, Bugaya, Apas, Tanjong Batu and Sebatic, (one of the last three was former Kalabakan).

Effectively 9 out of 12 new Constituencies have or are from areas with high concentration of phantom voters.
Datuk Chairman, do you know why Langkon in your Kota Marudu Parliament area was not re-instated?

4 Who are the phantom voters?

r ' , L ) , , In the 2010 population census, "Malaysians" in Sabah were 2.354 million.

But only about 1.617 were genuine Malaysians and 737,000 were Project IC and fake citizens - 32% of them!

To clarify how I arrived at the figure of 1.617 million genuine Malaysians in 2010 let us briefly look at the population of Sabah and Sarawak compared from 1970 to 2010.
Sources are from Department of Statistics Malaysia, Sabah.

In 1970 and before that, Sabah's population was always two-thirds of Sarawak's.

But now it is the other way round.

Table 1 below shows populations of Sabah and Sarawak: In 1970 Sabah had 648,693 and Sarawak 976,269; in 2010 Sabah 3,309,700 and Sarawak 2,420,000.

Sabah increased by 410% from 1970 to 2010 - quite extraordinary!
while Sarawak only managed 148% (Graph 2 in Appendix 7), If Sabah's increase were same as Sarawak's, then Sabah should have 1.617 million Malaysians in 2010 (assuming that the projected population increase consists of Malaysians only).

The additional numbers would therefore 6 consist of foreigners and some 737,000 Project Ie holders and their young children (Tables 2 and 3).
Table I Population of Sabah and Sarawak compared Sarawak (% increase) 976,269 1,235,553 (27%) 1,642,771 (33%) 2,012,616 (23%) 2,420,000 (20%) 1951 1960 1970 1980 1991 2000 2010 Sabah (% increase) 334,141 454,421 648,693 1,013,003 (56%) 1,808,848 (78%) 2,603,485 (44%) 3,309,700 (27%) Sabah (if same % as S'wak's) Sabah Project IC or fake citizens 648,693 823,840 1,095,707 1,347,719 1,617,262 640,942 737,238 1970-2000 increase: Sabah 301% compared to Sarawak 106% 1970-2010 increase: Sabah41O% compared to Sarawak 148% r: i ; , ; Table 2 "Malaysians" in Sabah 2000 2010 Genuine Malaysians 1,347,719 (69%) 1,617,262 (68%) Project IC or fake Malaysians 640,942 (31%) 737,238 (32%) Table 3 Breakdown of Sabah Population Total Genuine Population Malaysians 2,603,485 1,347,719 (52%) 640,942 (24.5%) 3,309,700 1,617,262 (49%) 737,238 (22%) 2000 2010 614,428 (23.5%) 955,200 (29%) Project IC or fake citizens(new Bumi) with 'papers' Foreigners Paperless foreigners ?

29% of Sabah's population in 2010 were foreigners - 955,200 (Table 3).

One would think that these foreigners were with some official papers, but we were told by Sabah Immigration Director Mohd bin Mentek last August that some 200,000 of them were residing illegally in Sabah.

My question is: why was no immediate action taken last year following the census exercise?
7 What is the explanation for the huge differences in the population increase for the KDM, Bajau and Malay groups of people in Sabah?

KDM increased by 201%, Bajau 422% and Malay 2,061% from 1970 to 2010 (Table 4 as shown below).
Year 1970 2000 2010 1970-2000 increase 1970-2010 increase KDM 215,811 564,623 649,500 162% 201% Table 4 Bajau 77,271 343,178 403,300 ·344% 422% Malay 18,362 303,497 398,000 1,552% 2,061% L J 32% of Malaysians in Sabah in 2010 were Project IC or fake Malaysian citizens (Table 2); they can be registered as voters and they also claim Anak Negeri status with all the Hak Warisan Adat Anak Negeri.
The percentage is increasing and Datuk Chairman, YB YB, this drastically disturbs the harmonious demography of Sabah.

Please take note Datuk Chairman that before Malaysia there were more than 50% KDM in Sabah out of the total Bumiputra and in 2010 they were only 34% of them (Graph 3 in Appendix 7 and Table 5).
Table 5 Sabah Bumiputra Population Total 309,833 437,075 838,141 (pribumi) KDM(%) 167,993 (54) 215,811 (49) Bajau ("10) 61,838(20) 77,271 (18) Malay(%) 18,362 (4) others (%) 80,002(26) 125,631 (29) 1,003,540 1,601,356 1,911,000 397,287 (40) 564,623 (35) 649,500 (34) 211,970 (21) 343,178 (21) 403,300 (21) 123,810 (12) 303,497 (19) 398,000 (21) 270,473 (27) 390,058 (25) 460,200 (24) 1960 1970 1980 1991 2000 2010 Cakes meant for Anak Negeri are forced to be passed to these instant "Bumiputra", slowly but surely marginalising the anak asal Sabah to oblivion.
8 Therefore it is not unreasonable to conclude that the current 860,000 names in the Sabah electoral rolls consist of around 200,000 Project IC phantom voters or fake citizens' names, not just the 70,000 that are known and located.

And not to forget the other foreigners - the so-called refugees (IMM13 holders), those with work permits, and the unknown number that are paperless (estimated one million) - they are the future "instant" Anak Negeri Sabah and voters.
Can't the Federal Government see the obvious?

5 What made this large number of Project Ie phantom voters possible in Sabah?

r"1 (A) Sabah UMNO Task Force Political Parties, NGOs, Institutions and activists have been calling for a RCI on illegal immigrants and Project IC in Sabah for more than 10 years.

Even MCA and Gerakan called for one a few weeks ago.

But not UMNO.

Why?
But not UMNO.

Why?

The last PSC (on Integrity) heard one ex-ISA detainee Jabar Khan exposing UMNO's role in ICs issued to foreigners in Sahah (and also in Harakah in March 2007).

He said: - When UMNO came to Sabah in 1991, Sabah UMNO Task Force was formed.

Its job was to look for foreigners, get them issued Malaysian ICs, and then registered as UMNO members and also registered in Sabah electoral rolls.
30 Constituencies out of 48 were the targets so that PBS could be unseated by the next State general 9 elections in 1994.

Director and Deputy of this Task Force were current Sabah CM and DCM, Musa Aman and Yahya Hussin (Appendix 10).

Jabar Khan was its Secretary.

He said 82,000 foreigners who were issued ICs by this Project IC got registered in Sabah electoral rolls in the 90's.
By the way, this was corroborated by a recent Wikileaks exposure about an ex-chief of EC admitting to Mafrel chief (Malaysian Free and Fair Election) in 2006 that he helped register foreigners with fake ICs in Sabah rolls on UMNO's order.

1 " May be this is one reason why UMNO does not want the said RCI.

Datuk Chairman and YB YB, the second reason stems from what happened in the 80's.
(B) In the 80's Another ex-ISA detainee, Hassnar Ibrahim @ Asainar Ibrahim, testified under oath during the Likas 1999 Election Petition trial.

He told the Court about the mechanics of how foreigners were issued Sabah Blue ICs in the 80's - through falsified SD by having the foreigners stating that they were born in Sabah when in fact not.
He said there was a meeting chaired by the late Dato' Megat Junid, Deputy Home Minister, in early 1986 with the following people present: Ketua Setiausaha Negara Tan Sri Ahmad Sarji Three top gun from Bukit Aman Police Setiausaha KDN Datuk Mohd Yaakub Sabah Director of Immigration Datuk Dusmi Ibrahim 10 , , I I I , r ' Ketua Pengarah Immigration Negara Datuk Halim Harun Timbalan Ketua Pengarah Pendaftaran Negara Ketua Setiausaha Sulit Azmin Datuk Yahya Lampong and Hassnar Ibrahim himself Hassnar and Yahya Lampong were there under instruction by Tan Sri Harris Salleh.
Hassnar further testified that Tan Sri Ahmad Sarji had reservation about this exercise but Dato' Megat briefed the committee that Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir had approved it.

The testimony was unchallenged, Datuk Chairman and YB YB.

Appendix (11) is an extract of the Note ofProceeding relevant to the above.

The phrase Project Mahathir was first revealed publicly in 1992 - an illegal immigrant told a Magistrate Court Judge that he got his IC from "Project President Mahathir" (Appendix 12).
This person got registered in the Sabah rolls after release from two years' jail and is still currently so.

His new IC is coded 12.

There was a Public Hearing in 1998 chaired by an EC Registering Officer to hear objections on applicants who wanted to become registered voters in Likas Constituency.

Some of those who were objected to came and when asked on where they were born, the answer was their country of origin; but their new IC numbers were coded 12.
When asked on how they obtained their ICs, the answer was: from "Project Mahathir".

However, all objectees except one were accepted by EC.

This Registering Officer told the Court the same during the 1999 Likas election petition trial.

You see, Datuk Chairman and YB YB - that's why this Project IC is also 11 c ; ( " r ; c I J known as Project Mahathir, as I did say so to the PSC on Integrity in 2006.
Tun Dr. Mahathir who is usually bold enough to say anything under the sky has not yet responded on this to date.

M D Mutalib had written books on ICs issued fraudulently and phantom voters in Sabah - 1.

IC Palsu Merampas Hak: Anak: Sabah 2.

Pengundi Untuk: Disewa 3.

IC Projek .....A;ge~ Tersembunyi Mahathir?

4.

007 - Lelak:i Malaysia Terakhir?

Please read them to fmd out more 'about this unbelievabl~ treasonous transaction.

If what was written was false why have Federal authorities kept silent?
Some recipients of this Project IC had declared openly that they were born in their countries of origin but were now in possession of Malaysian ICs and were registered on Sabah electoral rolls - but their IC numbers are coded 12, meaning born in Sabah.

This is just like what the EC Registering Officer stated as mentioned earlier.

NRD admitted that their MyKads were genuine (Appendix 13 and 14).
There were numerous newspapers reports of illegal immigrants charged in Court for attempting to cast their votes during the 1999 general elections using ICs of dubious nature.

Their old IC numbers were Project IC numbers but now in possession of new IC numbers coded 12 - Sabah born.

Although they were convicted, their names and IC numbers are still in Sabah's rolls today - some examples here (Appendix 15 and 16).
In Chapter 5 (i) of the 2008 Annual Report by SUHAKAM, it was stated that in Sabah there were seven complaints by illegal immigrants who had 12 problems getting MyKad or replacing Bunga Raya ICs with MyKad for themselves or their children even though their old cards had been accepted by EC to cast votes during general elections (Appendix 17).

UPKO's Deputy Chairman Wilfred Bumburing submitted a stack of.
evidence on foreigners in Sabah issued with Malaysian ICs under Project IC to Hishammuddin last year after a challenge by the Minister in Parliament to show proof.

There has been no response from Hishammuddin so far but he said openly in February this year that Project IC did not exist and that there was no need for a RCI (Appendix 18).
However, his Deputy, Lee Chee Leong came to Sabah two months ago and obediently repeated saying that Project IC did not exist in Sabah (Appendix 19), even though his Party, MCA, had just agreed for the said RCI.

How arrogant!

It just further proves that the Federal Government regards us Sabahans as fools.

Remember, you cannot fool us all the time.

6 Ad hoc policies and committees The Federal Government knew about the problems posed by the huge number of foreigners in Sabah.
One of you, Datuk Radzi, had stated in 2006, as Home Minister in the last Cabinet, that the situation was critical (Appendix 20).

Policies and ad hoc committees to address the issue were abound but they were only lip service.
Due to time factor I cannot touch on them here except one: Datuk Radzi, you might recall that in the latter half of 2004, Sabah's Immigration Director announced one new policy: new foreign workers must not bring along their wives and children; and those already in Sabah must send their dependents back to their countries of origin before their 13 r I !

l , permits would be renewed (Appendix 21).

What happened after that?

Schools were allowed to be set up for Indonesian children but not for Filipino ones.
7 Proposals (A) Royal Commission ofInquiry Datuk Chairman and YB-YB, this PSC has to report to Parliament in six months from its inception and you have limited time to call all those involved and still alive to answer your committee.

Why not urge the Government through this PSC to set up a RCI on illegal immigrants, Project ICs and phantom voters in Sabah which is long overdue anyway?

And then call all those in the know to answer.


Your Party President Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan, long wanted these phantom citizens to go, and repeatedly called for a RCI for almost 20 years - four times in one week one month ago, sounding like a croaky cry of a crow (Appendix 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26).

Practically all political parties, even MCA and Gerakan, want this but not UMNO.
We were and still are concerned about security and sovereignty of Sabah within Malaysia but UMNO, not BN, would not budge as elaborated above.

Those should be called includes former or present UMNO members like Jabar Khan, Akjan the Sultan, Shamsul Alang, Andy Bandy Pilo.

Tun Dr. Mahathir as well, he is not immune; call him before it is too late.

Not to forget Musa Aman and Yahya Russin too.


And bring in the 17 Sabah ex-NRD staff arrested under ISA around 1996 including two ex-Sabah Directors and many other ex-staff like Mohd 14 Nasir Sungip, Azmi Abdul Karim, Jumahat Taripin, AsH bin Sidup and Yaakup Damsar.

Also get hold of M D Mutalib, Hassnar Ibrahim, DatukYahya Lampung, Tan Sri Ahmad Sarji and Tan Sri Harris Salleh.
You may know, Datuk Chairman, that Tan Sri Harris insinuated that PBS' appointed Ketua Kampungs were the ones involved in falsified SDs, whereas SDs signed by his Berjaya-appointed Ketua were valid documents (Appendix 27).

A Wikileaks exposure recently had former EC chief Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman admitting (in 2006) to Mafrel chief Abdul Malek Husin ofEC's role in registering foreigners as voters.

So bring in both of them as well.

( , , Must call NRD, Immigration Department and Bukit Arnan also.
I hope this PSC will not succumb to UMNO's pressure and end up like the last one on Integrity.

All UMNO wants is political power and would do anything, even destroying our sovereignty, by issuance of Project ICs in Sabah, and persisting in it whilst knowing it is treasonous.

We pray that our leaders would humbly open their eyes and hearts to acknowledge their past wrong doings and think of Sabah and Malaysia, in order to prevent the disappearance of Sabah from Malaysia's map.
Human beings make mistakes but to admit and correct mistakes would save Sabah and Malaysia from being a doomed state.

Our children and grandchildren would ask themselves in 20 years time - why did their parents and grandparents not protect their lands, their Sabah's sovereignty within Malaysia?

So for their sake let us admit our wrong doings, let us reconcile, to salvage what's due to us, in order to keep the sovereignty of our nation Malaysia intact.
15 (B) Please get rid of the phantom voters from the Sabah Rolls Datuk Chairman can recall that during the debate on the Constitutional (Amendment) Act in 2003, you proposed: to set up a Special Task Force to rid Sabah's electoral rolls of non-qualified voters and thereby increase public confidence in the electoral process (Appendix 28).

Of course your proposal fell on deaf ears.

Our future~rnerationswould not forgive us as foretold by Datuk Radin if these phantom voters issue were not resolved .'
~ (Appendix 29).

Datuk Chairman, noW is the golden opportUnity for you to carry out your own proposal, isn't it?

(C) Recall all Project les issued and review citizenship of owners Expunging non-qualified names (phantom voters) from Sabah's electoral rolls naturally necessitates recall of all their MyKads and review their .

citizenship status.

Datuk Chairman, you have a former Home Minister here, Datuk Radzi, to help, with respect to past actions and inactions of NRD and Immigration Department.
Datuk Chairman, I know the task of carrying out these proposals· is an onerous one and the outcome will leave an indelible mark that may one day be either a source of pride to the future generations or a focus of contempt.

It is my sincere hope that by submitting this memorandum to your Committee I can help in achieving the first limb of the foregoing.

Forn,er Internal Security Act (ISA) detainee Hassnar' Ebraltim shocked a lot of people, particularly the locals, when he exposed the "Project Ie" in Sabah.

The locals he're are, stunned as· many of them who" reside in, the 'State's interiors have yet to own the sophisticated Malaysian Ie or MyKad, bu.t based on Hassnar's claims.

it seems that the card was eas ily accessible to foreigners.

While -Project Ie is ,not a new issue in Sabah.

Hassnar.

Hassnar was detained nuder the ISA on Aug. 9, 1998 for two months.

Sab~ah Chief- Minister Datuk SeriMuia Arnan' said the State Govertlment viewed the matter.very's'eriously and ~as doing all it coUld.

to solve the matter.

He asked those who exposed the issue to come forward 'and cooper- ate with the police.

.

"Do, not simply talk through the newspapers.

Cooperate with the authorities," said Musa, who .also directed the National Registration Department (NRD) and the Immigration Department to expl':lin the issue to the public in the interest of all.
Following the expose, Sabah Police Commissioner Datuk Mohd Mokhtar Hassan had requested Hassnar to assist the police in the inves tigation.

He said that the police could not tinish the investigation into Project IC wi'thout the cooperation from those with infonnation.

As such.

the police were putting Hassnar's statement on the issue on record to speed up investigations.

he said.

Mohd Mokhtar said that the police would not arrest Hassnar or any- ' one without sufficient proof to link them with the criminal activity.

See Page 2, Col. 3 No need to determine whose fault, says holder From Page One Meanwhile, another Kampung Sabang resident, Jamili Bungsu, 53, said the issuing of ICs under the project was rampant in the early 1980s until 1985.

"Just imagine, in the early 1980s at Kampung Pondo in Pulau Gaya (near Kota Kinabalu), there were only about J0 houses there.
But the numbers increased immediately during that time to almost 500 squatter homes whose occu pants were immigrants from the Philippines.

"It was not their fault- that there were locals who were willing to arrange les for them.

Not many knew who were the masterminds behind the operation.

It might have been done by those with high ranks as it was not easy to make an Ie," he said.

A man from Kampung Pnlau Gaya, Jaidy KarnJun.

26, said most immigrants who secured the Ies through the.
project had been living in the country for a long time and were involved in the State'!)

Most of them noW have MyKads and canvote.

"A~ far as I know.

the project not only benefited Filipinos.


Those from Indonesia, India and China' also profited from· it.

The modus operandi was the same, Ulat of throu:g4' a rniddle~ man," he said, adding it was 'unfair to lin'k·immigrants holding the ICs with Climinal activities in Sabah.

"Perhaps some of them are involved 1n criminal' activi ties or social problems hut not all The society's perception is inaccurate as we came here to earn a living.
"Our parents have lived in Sabah for a long time, and as a new generation, we do not desire to I'eturn to the Philippines.

We are like the locals who )ove and are loyal to Malaysia," he said.

Jaidy also supported the Government's efforts to send back illegal immigrants to their home countries.

and pre vent them from re-entering Malaysia.

"Let bygones be bygones.

There is no need to deter mine whose fault it was.

Let's work together towards a bet ter Sabah."

who received his education up-to Form Five in Malaysia.

His views were echoed by his village friend Tamskie Abdul Said, 36, who- said 'that until nO'N, nobody knew .who were the' masterminds of the Ie project that involved : the Pul~u Gaya's residents.- "~ject I~ was different· from those involving- fake identification cards.

The immigrants prefelTed Project Ie as fake Ie.

; did not allow voting .rights and the holder would be repatriated if caught by the police."
he said: Several quarters including political parties and non governmental organisations in Sabah have expressed con cern over the existence of Project Ie as it could threaten the country's security and deny genuine citizens employ ment opportunities as blue collar workers.

In this regard, they appealed to the Government to set up a Royal Inquiry Commission to get to the.

bottom of the issue and ways to resolve it.

The state and Federal gove.rnments are also aware of the.
illegal immigrant problem in Sabah.

Even the Barisan Nasional component palties' includ ing the PBS.

He said the state's "abnor mal" population growth, high lighted by the Human Rights Commission (Suhakam) recent ly, should be taken seriously.

"We must be serious in rid ding the state of its 'phantom citizens' and ilIeganmmigrants so that we have zero illegal immigrants, with all foreigners working in the state properly documented," he said yester day.

Pairin.
Pairin.

who is Parti Bersatu Sabah president, said Sabah's population explosion was not due to a natural birth rate but was caused by the unchecked entry of people from neigh bouring countries.

Suhakam Commissioner Prof Datuk Mohd Hamdan Adnan pointed out last week that Sabah had a four-fold increase in its population over the past 35 years.

He said statistics showed that Sabah's popUlation last year was almost three million, a huge jump from the 697,900 in 1970.
The population of sarawalt, on the other hand, only grew from one million to 2.3 million over the same period, he added.

Pairin said it was necessary for agencies like the Immigra tion Department, National Registration Department, po lice and army to tackle the problem.

Enforcement efforts similar to Ops Nyoh would help reduce the large numbe.

of non Malaysians illegally residing in the country, he said.
He added that there must also be tighter control of the country's borders to stop the entry of illegal immigrants.

Pairin said various commis sions and committees had been set up to tackle the problem; "However, the solution lies in the commitment of all relevant agencies to enforce the laws."

He said the agencies con cerned must act once the public tipped them off.

Otherwise, he said, the sov ereignty and security of the country could be threatened.

"The Election Commission is to commended for.

having be commenced acleaning up process of theState's electoral rollswhere some 50,000 dubious and non-qualified foreign voters have been expunged so far.

"The task of cleaning up the State's rolls must continue because public confidericeintheexisting rolls the remained low because of perception and proven legal case that asubstantial number ofillegal immigrants are still present in the rolls," he argued.
TheBandauMemberofParliarnent suggested that the functiOIlS of the task force would include coliecting ,and collating public information on the presence ofillegal immigrants in the rolls and ensuring that they were truly expunged "The Ee should take the opportunity to truly clean the Sabah rolls of non-qualified voters in line -B.P.25.6.03 with tI1e goal of the government to cleanS:bah ofillegalimmigrants,» he stressed.
On the non-reinstatement of the Langkon seat, Ongkili said voters in tbe Bandau parliamentary constituency were naturally disappointed but he appealed to the Federal government to compensate with increased financial allocation for basic infrastructure especially schools, roads, water, electricity and health services, Are the authorities listening?
