KAMPUNG MARAKAU FEEDING FISH RANAU

MARAKAU FEEDING FISH

Kg. Marakau terletak kira-kira 4.4 km dari Pekan Ranau dan kira-kira 112 km dari Bandaraya Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.

Admin berkesempatan untuk melawat satu kawasan sungai iaitu Sungai Mansahaban yang telah "DITAGAL" (Larangan Menangkap Ikan) untuk menjaga habitan pelbagai jenis ikan di sungai ini. Lokasi ini mudah dikunjungi dan dekat dari jalan utama serta berhampiran dengan Stesen Akuakultur Air Tawar, Marakau Ranau.

Buat masa ini, pengunjung tidak dikenakan bayaran untuk masuk.  Pengunjung cuma digalakkan untuk membeli makanan ikan yang dijual RM 1 bagi setiap pek kecil.  Pengunjung boleh merendamkan kaki sambil memberi makan kepada ikan.  Terdapat pelbagai jenis ikan di sungai ini yang jinak akan segera datang apabila anda memberi makan kepada ikan-ikan ini.

Disini, pengunjung boleh memberi makan kepada ikan-ikan ini dengan tangan atau menggunakan kaki (Makanan ikan yang telah dicantumkan).

Salah satu aktiviti istimewa disini adalah memberi makan kepada belut sungai yang jinak dan boleh disentuh, tetapi pengunjung perlu meminta kebenaran dari kakitangan yang bertugas.  Namun aktiviti ini masih terhad kepada pengunjung. Admin bertuah kerana berpeluang melihat aktiviti memberi makan kepada belut sungai ini.

Bagi pengunjung yang tertanya- tanya jenis ikan yang terdapat disini, silalah meluangkan masa untuk berkunjung di tempat ini. Anda tidak akan rugi.

Pesanan admin kepada pengunjung, sila jaga kebersihan kawasan sungai ini dan beri makan kepada ikan-ikan disini dengan lemah lembut.. :)

Gambar yang admin sertakan tidak berapa elok (Pinjam dengan rakan).. Tetapi sekurang-kurangnya memberi bayangan kepada pengunjung.

... Ikan besar kan...

...Bukan setakat ikan sungai....

THE PASSPORT PRIVILEGE - MALAYSIA

THE PASSPORT PRIVILEGE

1.And now Najib’s censorship will be exported. Foreign media must be put under control the way the Malaysian media is controlled. All reports must be in praise of 1MDB, Petro Saudi, Cayman Islands, British Virgin Island, the 2.6 billion Ringgit in Najib’s private account, the 2.3 billion Ringgit which has been returned, the sacking of party members and leaders who failed to praise all the above etc. etc. etc.

2.How is the foreign censorship and control to be done. Simple. The passports are a privilege. Deprive Malaysians of this privilege.

3.Take away their passports if they fail to praise Najib when speaking to the foreign media. It is totally and absolutely the democratic thing to do. All democracies in the world take away the passports of their citizens if they tell the foreign media anything bad about their leaders. Malaysians, under Najib’s democracy must do the same.

4.I will begin and I will set the example by praising Najib and the 2.6 billion Ringgit in his account sky-high when abroad. Any speech I deliver abroad and my answers in any interview by foreign media will highlight Najib’s democratic arrest and detention of anyone who failed to report to the police about Najib’s action to secure the country by declaring his critics are terrorists. I will never fail to talk about Najib’s great contribution to Islam for which the Arabs gave him USD 681 million. Also about the freedom of speech of UMNO delegates to not talk about 1MDB and the 2.6 billion Ringgit in the great leader’s account.

5.The passport is a privilege. It says so in the Malaysian constitution. The constitution and the law also says that if you don’t praise Najib, the passport will be confiscated.

6.When I am abroad I will defend Najib and his democratic Government. I give my word that I (with my tongue in cheek) will do so.

7.Three cheers for 1 MDB and money in the PM’s pocket.

8.Now the country will become a big prison for those who talk against Najib to the foreign media when abroad.

BETRAYING UMNO - Malaysia

BETRAYING UMNO

MALAYSIA

1. Indeed, what is happening to this blessed country has never been anticipated, dreamed or predicted by anyone, whether its citizen or foreigners.

2. When we fought for independence all leaders and people believed that leaders chosen by them will behave and act as nationalists who served, even sacrificed for the sake of country, for the people and for their prosperity. This is why they accepted without question the democratic system, a system that gives citizens the right to choose their government.

3. And as they anticipated, their choice of leaders after leaders did not disappoint them. The nation was properly developed and people enjoy a better life and are more prosperous than before.

4. Prime Ministers did not posed any problems. When the time came for them back down, off they go. Civil unrest to topple the Prime Minister has never happened.

5. Tun Abdullah also stepped down when his performance in the 12th General Election was not so good. He withdrew when it was clear that he no longer had people’s support. Najib also urged him to step down, and Najib replaced him.

6. People felt relieved. This is Malaysia. The transition of leadership at the highest level of power occurred smoothly and orderly. People waited for favours that they will get from the new leadership. They believed that the new is better than the old. If not better then certainly at least equal to his father, Tun Razak.

7. But people aspirations did not come true. Very early it can be observed his remarkable life of luxury compared to the previous Prime Ministers. This is seen especially during the wedding of his child. The focus is not given to the country’s development, to the creation of jobs and business opportunities. On the other hand BRIM was created, giving RM500 to people who are said to be poor.

8. People are disappointed. Far from supporting. Najib’s performance in the 13th General Election declined compared to the Prime Minister that he replaced. But the leaders at the divisional level and especially UMNO’s elected representatives did not seem to understand the lack of public support for Najib.

9. Then came 1MDB. With a capital of one million ringgit the company, founded and headed by Najib, borrowed forty-two thousand times more than capital. Thus started the stories about misconduct by 1MDB. Billions of ringgit were invested without in-depth studies, transferred here and there, disappeared and lost. Questions remained unanswered. Interests obligations are not met. Auditors are dismissed, replaced and dismissed again.

10. Then there is the story of Jho Low who does not hold any position but was full of authority.. If Members of the Board question, Jho Low would telephone Dato Sri Najib and tell the director asked Najib himself. Directors do not ask. Just follow instructions from Jho Low. Those who are not happy withdrew from the Board.

11. Stories about Rosmah also angered the people. Stories spread regarding the purchase of handbags alone costing millions of Ringgit, and also supposedly of many businesses giving free shares to Rosmah through her proxy.

12. All matters regarding 1MDB are sealed, not reported by the press because they are not allowed to, or out of fear or were warned. 1MDB matters were also not allowed to be brought up during UMNO General Meeting.

13. Later in the foreign press, Wall Street Journal, there were reports that Dato Sri Najib has in his personal bank account USD681, equivalent to RM2.6 billion. Everyone was surprised. They asked whether it was true that the Prime Minister of Malaysia have that much money. This is not possible. This is just news from the foreign press who like to criticize Malaysia.

14. Najib denied. He said he would never be so stupid as to deposit that amount of money into his personal account. He said the story is unfounded. He did not have so much money.

15. But in the end Dato Sri Najib admitted that there is a sum of RM2.6 billion in his personal account. Supposedly, a donation from a Prince of Saudi Arabia. Then changed, that it was from the King of Saudi Arabia who had died.

16. But its confirmation by means of a reliable document does not exist. Just a declaration by Najib. The Attorney General was dismissed and the new one appointed claimed that Najib had not misused funds in his account. Apparently this money has been given back to the donor. Once again there are no documents to support this contention. Only a statement by the Attorney General

17. If not guilty, why not file a defamation suit against the Wall Street Journal and Sarawak Report that made the reports on the RM2.6 billion in Najib’s account. The suits can be filed in Britain or the United States if the accused refuses to be tried in Malaysia. But Najib did not file the suit, other than just asking why the reports were made. This means that reports by the Wall Street Journal and Sarawak Report are true and with basis.

18. Now the world knows and believe that Najib has misappropriated a lot of 1MDB’s capital. And the world laughs sarcastically at Malaysia which have become the most corrupt country in the world. And Najib is allegedly the worst Finance Minister in Asia.

19. Heads of UMNO’s divisions and UMNO Members of the House of Representatives could not be so deaf and blind as to not know about Najib’s misconduct. But they continue to support Najib and defend him. Do not they feel any shame knowing their Prime Minister is this rotten, openly humiliated by the world without being rebutted by Najib.

20. But it seems they do not feel ashamed and are more concerned with self-interest rather than the interests and dignity of the country.

21. Everywhere people gather and demanded that Najib be removed from the post of Prime Minister. Members and UMNO leaders do not know that their party will lose if Najib continues to lead the BN and Umno in the 14th General Election. Only the dumb and deaf will not be bothered with the demise of Umno which will surely happened.

22. Umno is a party that defeated the Malayan Union and liberate the country. UMNO also succeeded in developing the country.

23. UMNO also gave to the country Prime Ministers, Prime Ministers that developed the country to a high level.

24. But today because UMNO defends Najib as Prime Minister although it is clear he was involved in a deplorable scandal, and makes UMNO the worst party in Malaysia, still division leaders and UMNO Members of Parliament conspire with Najib to destroy UMNO. Their children and grandchildren will curse them for this.

25. O UMNO leaders, please remember the future. Your betrayal will be justly commensurated in the world and in the hereafter.

THE CITIZENS’ DECLARATION - MALAYSIA

1. Malaysia is a Constitutional Monarchy and a Parliamentary Democracy.

2. The country has a written constitution and laws to protect the people from criminal acts and abuses of power by the Government.

3. Unfortunately we are seeing the Constitution and the laws of the country being ignored or abused. The built-in constitutional provision for redress i.e the report to the police and the vote of non-confidence to remove the leader are now no longer available.

4. The separation of power between the Legislative, the Executive and the Judiciary is not respected any more. The Prime Minister seems to exercise power over all three. As a result he seems to be above the laws of the country.

5. He created a national wealth fund from borrowed money.

6. Now the Government is in debt totalling RM50 billion.

7. 1MDB is unable to pay a two billion dollar interest on the debt.

8. 1MDB defaulted on the payment of another debt. 1MDB invested one billion dollars in JV with Petro Saudi, supposedly to exploit oil and gas concessions in Argentina and Turkmenistan.

9. The JV was dissolved as there was no oil or gas to produce.

10. The USD 1 billion share in the JV was lent or sold to Petro Saudi for 1.2 billion.

11. More money was lent to Petro Saudi.

12. Where the money has gone to is not known.

13. More than 2 billion USD was invested in Cayman Islands.

14. The money was said to have been brought back and deposited in a Singapore bank.

15. The Singapore bank denies money had been deposited with it by 1MDB.

16. 1MDB then claims it was not money, but units. What unit?

17. Suddenly Najib was reported to have USD 681 million (equal to RM 2.6 billion) in his private account in Ambank.

18. He claims it was a donation but has no credible document to prove it.

19. He had spent some of the money held in this account on himself.

20. There is no record of his spending on UMNO in the 13th General Election as he claims.

21. Reports by Bank Negara apparently on this account has been brushed aside by the newly appointed Attorney General.

22. There are many more things done by Najib which require police investigations together with other Government agencies under the law.

23. All these investigations cannot be done because they are stopped by Najib as Prime Minister.

24. In fact all avenues for redress are now not available to the citizens of Malaysia.

25. These are extraordinary circumstances and resort has got to be made through extraordinary means.

26. Hence the Citizens’ Declaration on saving Malaysia and the appeal to the Rulers to intervene.

27. Although there is no provision for the Rulers to intervene, nevertheless there are ways and means for the Rulers to save the country from the abuses of power by Prime Minister Najib.

28. The people look up to the Rulers to save Malaysia.

29. I am sure the Rulers will not fail them.

HOW TO BRIBE GOVERNMENT

MALAYSIA

17 May 2016 | Economics

1. The Governments of nations dedicated to increasing the wealth of their countries realised the importance of international trade. This is especially so after the loss of the European Empires during which a policy of Imperial Preference ensured the monopoly of imports and exports from and to the colonial territories.

2. The greatest of these imperialist countries was Britain. It became the richest and the most powerful country in the world.

3. But after WWII the imperialists of Europe lost their empires and the trade monopoly that they enjoyed. Strong competition from East Asian countries reduced their trade even more.

4. But they still enjoy good incomes from selling arms. To generate more exports of arms they need to have proxy wars being fought by unsuspecting countries, particularly between the countries they created during their imperial heydays.

5. We see today very sophisticated arms being used in the fratricidal wars, which are being fought in a number of Arab ex-colonies. There is no way for these countries to develop and produce such sophisticated weapons. They may produce primitive bombs and rockets. But the tanks, armoured cars, machine guns and missiles must be bought from the developed countries.

6. These developed countries decry the arms trade as a business. But there can be no doubt that they are the ones most involved in the trade.

7. The weapons trade is huge. The warplanes, tanks, warships, rockets, missiles, submarines etc cost billions of dollars. The income from the sale of arms can contribute much to the wealth creation of a country.

8. They are therefore not too choosy as to who they sell their arms to. Their customers may be oppressive dictators and corrupt Prime Ministers. They may condemn these people for not being democratic and oppressive. But they would tone down their criticisms if these people offer to buy expensive arms from them.

9. The moaning and decrying over the injustices and oppression of dictators are just side-shows to assuage their conscience. But it is they who promote corruption and dictatorial oppression of many Governments in the world.

ISU LOMBONG TEMBAGA MAMUT RANAU, SABAH

 Petikan dari MISLAN GANI

Assalamulaikum dan Selamat sejahtera .

Saya MISLAN  GANI...
Saya terpanggil untuk mengulas komen - komen yang sedang hangat diperkatakan diwasap2 dan di media sosial mengenai dengan bekas Lombong Tembaga Mamut Ranau,Sabah.

SAYA pemegang Sarjana Muda Sains dalam Bidang  Geologi(UKM 1988)
Saya adalah seorang geologis professional dengan pengalaman lebih 25 tahun dalam bidang eksplorasi mineral dan perlombongan khususnya bagi deposit profiri dan organik di rantau Asia dan Austrlia.saya merupakan bekas geologis kanan selama 10 tahun di Mamut Cooper Mining.Sudah tentu saya arif banyak perkara dari aspek teknikal, sejarah dan persekitaran bekas lombong tembaga mamut.

Sekiranya benar berlaku pemeluapan asid daripada tasik mamut, tentu sekali, mangsa yang pertama adalah tumbuh tumbuhan dan hidupan liar yang berada berhampiran dengan tasik berkenaan. Hakikatnya, berbagai jenis tumbuh tumbuhan telah hidup dengan subur dan banyak pula binatang liar seperti rusa, kijang, babi hutan, beberapa spesis kera,beruang, serta berbagai jenis burug hidup sihat walafiat dikawasan berkenaan hingga saat ini. Selama hampur 30 tahu lombong tembaaga mamut beroperasi, belum pernah direkodkan mana - mana individu mengalami simptom apatah lagi meninggal dunia akibat pemelwapan asid di kawasan berkenaan.

Untuk rekod, tidak ada logam nikel di Mamut.yang ada adalah logam- logam seperti tembaga (Cu), emas (Au), (Fe), perak ( Ag ),besi ( Fe ) dan beberapa lagi logam minor ( sedikit ). Walau bagaimanapun,semua logam berkenaan adalah dalam bentuk sulfida ( bukan logam bebas ) oleh yg demikian ,logan logam tersebut tidak akan membahayakan kesihatan manusia. Tidak terdapat rekod mana mana individu yg telah jatuh sakit  atau meninggal dunia akibat keracunan logam logam berkernaan sepanjang lombong tembaga mamut beroperasi. Memang benar Air tasik mamut merupakan bersifat asid ( asid sulfrik ) tetapi tidak akan mendatangkan bahaya jika kita tidak menyentuhnya. ( pengunjung dilarang keras dan tidak dibenarkan sama sekali menghampiri tasik, apatah lagi menyentuhnya ).

Tanah ultramafik  atau ultrabasik yang terdapat di kawasan mamut adalah berasal dari luluhawa batuan serpentinite atau peridotite iaitu sejenis batuan gunung berapi. Tanah ini bersifat bes dan dapat mrneturalkan keasidan persekitaran. Bagi kes mamut, tanah ini digunakan dengan meluas dalam program pemuliharaan persekitaran dan telah terbukti amat berkesan dalam membantu pertumbuhan berbagai jenis rumput dan kayu kayan sekitan lombong berkenaan seperti yang kita saksikan pada masa sekarang.

Hakikatnya, tapak bekas lombong tembaga mamut telah terbiar dan dijadikan kawasan selama 17 tahun ( sejak 1999). Perkara ini terjadi disebabkan, tanggapan masyarakat yang kurang berpengetahuan dan beranggapan bahawa bekas lombong tersebut sagat merbahaya dan mendatangkan mudharat kepada orang ramai dan alam sekitar.

Akhirnya ,saya sangat berharap kepada semua masyarakat berfikir panjang dan fikir dahulu sebelu memberi kenyataan.dan dapatkan  / merujuk fakta yang sahih bagi mengelakkan sebarang spekulasi terhadap orag persorangan khasnya , dan masyarakat amnya.

Perkataan dan tingkahlaku kita mencerminkan pengetahuan dan  keintelektualan serta keperibadian kita.Dapatkan fakta sebenar sebelum mengeluarkan kenyataan.

T.kasih

SEJARAH RINGKAS PEMBUKAAN MAMUT MOUNTAIN VIEW

MISLAN  BIN GANI adalah ANAK KELAHIRAN DUSUN TEMPATAN  DAERAH RANAU,Pemegang Sarjana  muda sains( kepujian) dlm bidang Geologi(UKM 1988)

Pemegang Lesen Bahan letupan (membawa,menyimpan,mengangkut dan melakukan kerja2 letupan utk lombong dan kuari.

Pernah bekerja sebagai GEOLOGIS KANAN di Mamut Cooper Mining Sdn Bhd selama 10 tahun(1989-1999)

Sebagai geologis eksplorasi kanan MAMUT/PRILYA (JV) Sdn Bhd(2000-2002)

Sebagai Geologis eksplorasi Prilya PTY LTD QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIAN
(2006)

Sebagai geologis Kanan eksplorasi Raub-Australian Gold Mine,Raub Pahang(2010-2014)

Kini sebagai Perunding Geologis Proffesional Eksplorasi Emas Tembaga dan Perlombongan Dedah(open pit)

Setelah sekian lama BELIAU bekerja di luar negeri/negara..kini  telah kembali ke Daerah kelahiran dengan hasrat untuk mencuba membuka seterusnya niat memajukan Bekas Lombong Tembaga Mamut yang terbiar selama 17 tahun sebagai Pusat Pelancongan.

BELIAU telah membuat permohonan melalui Jabatan2 kerajaan yg berkenaan dengan secara telus dan dengan saluran yang betul.

Dengan latarbelakang BELIAU sebagai geologis professional dan pengalaman 10 tahun sebagai geologis kanan di Mamut cooper  Mining..sudah tentu BELIAU arif tentang banyak perkara dari aspek teknikal,sejarah dan persekitaran bekas lombong tembaga mamut.

Oleh itu Jabatan2 kerajaan berkenaan memberi kepercayaan kepada BELIAU dan permohonan BELIAU diluluskan.

Dengan kesedaran yang ada,  BELIAU  mula membuat persediaan pembukaan dengan modal yg agak tinggi...(membaiki jalan raya yang rosak ( sukar dilalui kenderaan kecil ) memasang pagar keselamatan,penyediaan tandas,beberapa buah kerusi meja dan kanopi utk kemudahan pengunjung dan membuat pembersihan kawasan yang telah dibenarkan secara mengupah orang ( pekerja harian / upah harian ).

Malangnya hasrat murni BELIAU utk  mengusahakan Bekas lombong tersebut yg terbiar sejak 17 tahun lalu dihalang oleh beberapa  individu tertentu seolah  - olah
  tidak mahu melihat bangsa sendiri menjadi maju dengan kata lain lebih maju kehadapan.

Berbagai usaha segelintir individu ini,  cuba  utk menghalang BELIAU daripada mengusahakan aktiviti / bertapak di bekas Lombong tersebut..

Bukan hanya menakut nakutkan orang ramai daripada berkunjung ke Lombong  dgn menyebarkan fakta yg tidak berasas malah juga mempengaruhi Jabatan2 tertentu  termasuk pemimpin agar  mebatalkan kebenaran yang telah BELIAU perolehi secara sah.

Namun...BELIAU masih tidak putus asa dan masih meneruskan usaha memberi kesedaran kepada masyarakat tempatan  bahawa tanggapan negatif mereka terhadap Bekas lombong itu tidak benar sama sekali..

Diharap dengan terbitnya bingkisan ringkas ini..semoga orang2 di luar sana dapat berfikir dan menyingkirkan perkara2 negatif  seterusnya memberi sokongan kepada orang orang kita, sebagai wakil tempatan utk terus memajukan  aktiviti yang meningkatkan produktiviti orang - orang kita ( khasnya bekas lombong Mamut )
Majunya Mamut juga akan menaikkan nama bangsa kita dan seterunya menaikkan  nama Ranau...RANAU NO 1...
Fikir fikirkan lah...
