The UMNO/BN Sabah State Government has failed to look into the welfare of the families whose relations have passed on in life.

Dr Roland Chia PKR Sabah Secretary said this during his participation in the Gotong Royong with the local residents in clearing and cleaning up the TANAH PERKUBURAN ISLAM PRINTING, KEPAYAN (TAMAN FIRDAUS), Jalan Kapayan.

The present site is overcrowded and the State Government has yet to approve the adjacent piece of land for the local residents to expand the present cemetery. According to a local resident, they received many urgent requests even from outstation for their relations to be buried there in view of the vicinity to the nearby Queen Elizabeth Hospital. The local residents have to rely on volunteers to undergo clearing work without any government aid. In addition to that, they have to folk out from their pockets in carrying out burials of their deceased loved ones.

The residents could just envy the welfare programmes introduced by the Selangor State Pakatan Rakyat Government whereby under the Mesra Usia Emas Skim (SMUE). An aid of RM2500 to be given to the families of the deceased to assist in the expenses of burial and other miscellaneous costs incurred during this bereaved moment. This is part of the Peoples' Economy introduced by the Pakatan Rakyat State Government.
