Golden Land --Sarawak, chapter 25 continues

'  Sarawak was a happy independent country with people living in peace and loving each other without prejudice of races, religion and many other varieties. I speak 8 languages' Mr. Bong is happy to show off

'Slaves was a daily practice as the Brunei empire during the 1830 caught beautiful girls and sold separately in pretty villa or castles on top of the hill and the dirty boy slaves and different cages of strong fit men slaves were encaged and sold at the wharf in front of present Hilton hotel.' Bong brought out factual events during the 1830 when sarawak was part of Brunei. during that period, people travelled by sailing shipfrom Kuching to Singapore, London, New York, Shanghai, Sydney. It was 30 to  80 days voyages.

' Then James Brooke came and he became King of Sarawak.' bong showed his happy smile again.
' James Brooke fought against pirates and made this Borneo, sarawak area a much safer place to live and make money $$$.'

'  Some people sat that time felt unhappy and they did not want to stay as happy slaves so they fought against Rajah, King James Brooke.'

Do you refering to the Gold Miners lead by Mr. Liew Shang Pang ? That was 1857 and they killed few people from England and killed a handful of guards or soldiers. They were beaten by thousands of soldiers recruited by the Rajah, King James Brooke and the wlargest city, Bau- Siniawan, was wiped out in sarawak. We assumed that the Iban soldiers had taken all the gold and all precious items and killed all living things around that area.

' that is the reason why Buso town was names till today as it indicate the place was full of rotten death human, and the largest town along the Sarawak Indonesia border now is likely named after the whole place was smelly and the local language Bau means pungent smell of probable death Miners,spouse, children and pets.'

"That was not a period with slave trading !!" I suggested

'Happy slaves are peole working hard and let the authority to decide their outcome or destiny.' Bong indicate that ther is a high risk that we are happy slaves and yet few know or understand that.

'the power distance index showed that our area is fulll of unfair power.'

" I know Sweden is number one in fairness."

'they are rich too. they are not only rich in monetary term, they are rich in creativities, ability to imagine, ability to love and creat love.' that sound interesting.
 Bhutan area is reafered to be one of the happiest area"

'To set one's mind to be happy do not corelate to the scientific facts of power sharing, democracy, welath and human right protection.'

I nodded my head and I admired Bong's courage. He is the man who dare to dream, think, and voice it out.

I will learn from him and I will join him to be the freedom, human right fighter of this world ( small and the world in larger context). One day this will be a land where people now studying all over the world would reture, Many people who migrated to other countries from sarawak will returen to this golden Land --sarawak, and a new paradise will be establishes.
