Comparing the income levels in 2014 with 2016, the statistics showed that urban incomes rose by 3.7% to RM6,548.00 over that period, while rural incomes rose by 4.4% to RM3,695.00. This is an increase of 4.4% compared to RM4,934.00 in 2014. With regard to household income, and based on the Household Income and Basic Amenities Survey Report 2016, the average household income for Sarawak in 2016 was RM5,387.00. Nevertheless, and despite our success in bringing down the poverty levels, the Government will continue in our efforts to eradicate poverty. The figures I have just mentioned are the average for the whole of Sarawak and it is possible that the incidence of poverty may be higher in certain localities than in others. This is a testament to the effectiveness of GovernmentвЂ™s efforts to reduce the incidence of poverty over the years. Poverty levels in Sarawak have declined from 2.4% in 2012 to 0.9% in 2014 and further down to 0.6% in 2016. The first goal is to significantly raise rural incomes in order to reduce the incidence of rural poverty and to bridge the present rural-urban income gap. Addressing rural poverty and bridging rural-urban income gap My Ministry will continue to focus on two key development strategic goals for the foreseeable future. The projects include those that are under the purview of the newly established Regional Development Agencies, the Rural Transformation Projects, Projek Rakyat, and the Digital Economy Initiatives. As the Minister responsible for development of agriculture and rural economy, I will ensure that my Ministry will play an effective role in the planning and implementation of related projects under those new initiatives. I am confident that those initiatives will have a big impact on the State economy. We are also greatly encouraged by the supportive comments from Tuan Yang Terutama on the new socio-economic initiatives that were recently introduced by the Sarawak Government. This advice should be placed in high regard by everyone, including the Honourable Members from both sides of this august House. We note, for example, his reminder on the importance of unity, peace and harmony as the foundation for continued socio-economic development of the State. Douglas Uggah PreambleДЇirstly, I would like to join other Honourable Members of this august House in congratulating and thanking Tuan Yang Terutama for his inspiring words and invaluable advice during his address at the opening of this Dewan Undangan Negeri Sitting.

He also ruled that VoonвЂ™s petition under Order 15(6) of the SAO is not relevant, therefore he has no right to come before the Court to object to the petitions of both former CJSSs. He held that the ordinance did not grant the same rights to other parties. The present Chief Judge of Sarawak and Sabah ruled that Section 5(2) of the Sarawak Advocates Ordinance (SAO) only confers the rights to the AAS and SAG to receive petitions and to be heard in court pertaining to the application to be admitted to the Sarawak Bar. This morning, Abang Iskandar dismissed VoonвЂ™s intervener application and ordered Voon to pay a total cost of RM30,000.

The ordinance states that a person is deemed to have Sarawak connections if they are born in the state, have been a resident here for a continuous period of five years or more and are domiciled in Sarawak. He invoked the Sarawak Advocates Ordinance 1953 as grounds for his intervener application. Voon who is also president of Parti Bumi Kenyalang, objected to their applications, arguing that he brought the issue to the High Court to safeguard Sarawak lawyersвЂ™ interests as provided by the Federal Constitution based on the spirit of the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63) and to ensure that lawyers from outside Sarawak will be blocked from practising law in the State. The two former CJSSs had earlier applied to practise law in Sarawak. Meanwhile, the application of another former CJSS, Tan Sri Wong Dak Wah to practise law in Sarawak is being heard this afternoon starting at 1.30pm.
