Comments from the DAP politicians and Suhakam reinforce what we have heard from other Sarawak state leaders and national politicians. By these accounts, the Sarawak state government remains highly corrupt and firmly in the hands of its chief minister. The $82 million state assembly building now under construction serves as perhaps the most obvious and extreme example of the self-enrichment of the states chief minister and other senior government officials. Through a combination of financial and political patronage, media ownership and control, and a seemingly unfocused opposition party, no serious challenge exists to the governing coalitions longstanding grip on political power in the state.

Sarawak's state assembly building dominates the skyline in some parts of the townSarawaks state assembly building hogs the skyline in some parts of Kuching. It is many times the size of Fort Margharita and the Astana, home of the White Rajahs, situated further along the river bank. In this photo of the old part of town, the assembly building looms dominatingly in view from across the Kuching river. Its shape is said to resemble the headgear of the Melanau people. The chief minister, Taib Mahmud, is Melanau.

BAB 1, SIRI IV : SEKRITARI (SAMBUNGAN) DALAM siri ketiga, Sabahkini.net terus dihujani dengan pelbagai pertanyaan terutama benarkah Skandal Tersebut melibatkan YB yang bernama Rahim sedangkan sudah dinyatakan bahawa jika ada persamaan nama atau tempat hanya secara kebetulan sahaja; tetapi mereka terus mendesak untuk mengetahui sama ada tokoh berkenaan YB mereka. YB Rahim adalah lambang manusia biasa yang menggunakan kedudukan politik, jawatan dan pengaruh untuk melakukan apa sahaja perlakuan yang mungkin menyebabkan para pengundi kesal dengan tindakannya, namun enggan menegur kegiatan jalangnya.
