KUCHING – Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg has said he does not care about the accusations and slander thrown by outsiders against his leadership.
He said what was important was sincerity and hard work in administering government affairs so that Sarawak developed and generated high income by 2030.
“If we are good, some people will envy and want to criticise me, go ahead I don’t care… as a Muslim I believe God will help me.
“At the age of 74, I have been blessed with good health to continue working, travel to other countries to see how other countries develop and meet people to find ways to develop Sarawak,” he said when speaking at the Gawai Dayak celebration in Gedong district here today.
Earlier, local newspapers reported that several police reports had been made against an individual named Nehru Sathiamoorthy, the author of an article in an online news platform that disparaged Abang Johari’s leadership and achievements.
Meanwhile Sarawak police commissioner Datuk Mancha Ata confirmed that five police reports had been made against the article and the case was being investigated under Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998. – June 16, 2024
