Processes of Large-Scale Oil Palm Development on Native Customary Land in Sarawak: a Rural Livelihoods Approach Processes of large-scale oil palm development on native customary land in Sarawak: a rural livelihoods approach Sunny Sanderson MPhil (BSc), BA A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2017 School of Agriculture and Food Sciences Abstract The oil palm boom has resulted in an unprecedented rate of expansion in the Malaysian state of Sarawak. The planted area increased by 40 percent from 2010 to 2015, from 1.0 to 1.4 million hectares, with an ambitious plan to further increase this figure to two million hectares by 2020. However, the profitability and continued growth of this boom crop are heavily reliant on two key factors: an abundance of land and labour. The first depends on the conversion of large tracts of Native Customary Rights (NCR) land. In 2016, there was officially estimated to be 1.5 million hectares of NCR land in Sarawak, of which 328,000 hectares had been converted to oil palm, and a further 500,000 hectares was targeted for conversion. There are two main State agencies specifically tasked with large-scale oil palm development on NCR land: the Sarawak Land Consolidation and Rehabilitation Authority (SALCRA) and the Land Custody and Development Authority (LCDA). The former implements managed smallholder schemes implemented by a public agency, and the latter negotiates joint venture schemes with private plantation companies. The second key factor for expansion is continued access to Indonesian migrant labourers, who make up 80 to 90 percent of the plantation workforce. The rapid expansion of oil palm plantations in Sarawak has raised fundamental questions about the institutional arrangements in place to access NCR land for large-scale conversion, especially those that embrace the private sector. This, in turn, has highlighted issues around how scheme participation is experienced by NCR landowners and what are the outcomes of participating. It also raises the need to understand the conditions for the foreign migrant labourers isolated within these plantations. These questions were addressed by undertaking in- depth case studies of a SALCRA project and an LCDA-brokered joint venture project with the global plantation company Rimbunan Hijau in south-western Sarawak. The studies were based on 90 semi-structured, in-depth interviews with NCR scheme participants, 26 interviews with Indonesian migrant labourers, and interviews with a wide range of key informants. In addition to the two main case-study sites, a further seven oil palm estates and 13 participating villages were visited with the relevant scheme officials. The research found that the expectations and outcomes of participation did not always match. In the case of SALCRA, there was a broad range of outcomes. Some well-connected participants had access to good employment opportunities, received substantial dividends, and received formal land titles, while others had received no financial returns, no land titles, and few attractive employment opportunities, even after a decade of participation. However, even 2 though such managed smallholder schemes implemented by public agencies were slow to progress, key benefits were still assured. However, the outcomes of participation in the joint- venture scheme implemented by Rimbunan Hijau were largely negative. NCR landowners felt deceived, and conflicts, blockades, court cases, and loss of land were commonplace. The case study further revealed that the close relationships between senior politicians and Rimbunan Hijau were detrimental to NCR participants. In the case of Indonesian labourers, they were found to suffer low wages, long hours, and difficult conditions. Legal migrants were preferentially recruited from the distant islands of the Indonesian archipelago, passports removed, and movement highly restricted. Conditions for illegal workers varied, from daily movement back-and-forth across the international border, to extremely harsh conditions and the risk of severe punishment. Large-scale agricultural development projects are often heralded as the best method to improve rural livelihoods. The findings of this research are significant because they highlight the risks for NCR landowners, and migrant labourers, who participate in large-scale oil palm development projects in Sarawak. They also cast doubt on whether the large-scale conversion of NCR land in Sarawak is for the benefit of rural communities, or simply a mechanism to gain access to the last large tracts of suitable land for private gain. These findings are relevant to other indigenous communities with untitled land in regions subject to the same development pressures. 3 Declaration by author This thesis is composed of my original work, and contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference has been made in the text.

  • Sarawak Digital Economy Strategy 2018 - 2022
    SARAWAK DIGITAL ECONOMY STRATEGY 2018 - 2022 AN OVERVIEW BOOKLET FOREWORD My first priority for Sarawak since becoming the Chief Minister on the 13th January 2017 was to bring about a major paradigm shift in our development strategy. We have so far been relying heavily on non-renewable resources for our economic development and this is clearly not sustainable in the long run. It was quite obvious, then, with the whole world focused on emerging technologies such as gaming and animation, big data, cloud computing, blockchains, artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicles, and renewable energy, we have to enter without hesitation into the digital world so that Sarawak will have a chance of enjoying high income. I immediately asked the State Secretary to organise an international conference on the digital economy in Sarawak and spearhead the Digital Economy Transformation. The first International ICT Infrastructure and Digital Economy Sarawak (IDECS) - Transforming Sarawak through the Digital Economy - was held on the 3rd and 4th of April 2017 in Kuching featuring notable local and international speakers with over 1,500 delegates. During the closing ceremony of the conference, I also announced that Sarawak will set up the Sarawak Multimedia Authority (SMA), the Sarawak Digital Economy Corporation (SDEC), Development Bank of Sarawak (DBOS), as well as a strategic plan for developing the digital economy of Sarawak. I am therefore pleased to present the five years Sarawak Digital Economy Strategy (2018-2022), in which we set out the possible directions Sarawak can take in order to leapfrog into the digital economy to be at the forefront of the digital world.

  • Stop Raising Issue of Candidate Lineup, Says Dr Masing
    26 AUG 2001 Sarawak-Polls STOP RAISING ISSUE OF CANDIDATE LINEUP, SAYS DR MASING KUCHING, Aug 26 (Bernama) -- Leaders of Bansa Dayak Sarawak (PBDS), a component party of the Sarawak Barisan Nasional (BN), should stop raising the issue of the party's candidate lineup, its publicity chief, Datuk Dr James Jemut Masing, said today. "As far as I am concerned, the candidate lineup is final as announced by party president Datuk Amar Leo Moggie yesterday," he told reporters after opening a contemporary ceramics exhibition on "Bunga Terung" at a gallery at the waterfront here. He said the leaders should now close ranks and ensure that the BN won the state election. Moggie had said that the list, which had been endorsed by the party's supreme council, was official and only awaiting endorsement from BN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad. Moggie's announcement put to rest speculations that PBDS deputy president Datuk Daniel Tajem was attempting to make a comeback to active politics. It also meant that Tajem will not be getting PBDS's ticket to contest in the upcoming election despite speculations that he would be replacing Mong Dagang for the Bukit Begunan state seat, which was once Tajem's stronghold for 22 years. Moggie had also said that incumbent Datuk Sng Chee Hua (Pelagus) would be replaced by his 22-year old son, Larry, a new trend for PBDS which is to inject the youth spirit into politics. The other PBDS incumbents retained are Dublin Unting (Batang Ai), Gabriel Adit (Ngemah), Joseph Entulu (Tamin), John Sikie Tayai (Kakus), Datuk Dr James Jemut Masing (Baleh) and Stanley Ajang (Belaga).

  • The Balingian Shear Zone and West Baram Line, Sarawak and Their Importance in the Early Cenozoic Evolution of Nw Borneo Robert B
    217 THE BALINGIAN SHEAR ZONE AND WEST BARAM LINE, SARAWAK AND THEIR IMPORTANCE IN THE EARLY CENOZOIC EVOLUTION OF NW BORNEO ROBERT B. TATE Department of Geology, University of Malaya, 59100 Kuala Lumpur Intense shearing of the rocks at the Sibu-Bintulu road bridge site on the Sg. Balingian was recognised first in 1976 and the shaaring then attributed to a NE-trending tectonic feature related to the Mulu Shear Zone (McManus & Tate, 1976). New roadside exposures in the middle-upper Eocene Belaga Formation in the neighbourhood of Sg. Balingian between Sibu and Bintulu now reveal a major zone of deformation which seems to trend approximately WNW. The zone appears to continue offshore where it is aligned with a positive gravity anomaly trending WNW (Hutchison,1991) indicating a major discontinuity at depth. The gravity anomaly coincides with the SW margin of the Balingian oil Province which has been described by Swinburn (1993) as the West Balingian Line. The Balingian Shear zone is characterised by intensely folded turbidites belonging to the upper part of the Belaga Formation. Cleavage, quartz-filled jointing and ptygmatic folds, boudinage and small-scale thrusting are common within a belt about 5 km wide. Structural measurements obtained from the Balingian exposures indicate a general N -S compressional direction but more data are needed from a wider area before either the structural interpretation or lateral extent and direction of the shear zone, including whether there is any horizontal component, can be established satisfactorily. The timing of the deformation cannot be verified except that it is post upper Eocene.
