KOTA KINABALU: The State Government will not allow bird’s nest operations in the city because of hygiene issues.
“Don’t tell me it doesn’t cause disease because I am a doctor and I know what I am talking about,” said Resource Development and Information Technology Minister Datuk Dr Yee Moh Chai when asked to comment on a recent report in which the chairman of the Working Group on Edible Bird’s Nest Swiftlet Ranching from the Department of Veterinary Service, Dr Fadzilah A’ini binti Abdul Kadir, claimed that bird’s nest ranching was allowed in towns and cities in Peninsular Malaysia and that the swiftlets which produced the bird’s nests were not contaminated with bird flu as they do not mix with other species of birds.
“The person making the statement better stop taking nonsense. As far as we in Sabah are concerned, we will not accept. If she thinks there is nothing wrong with having bird’s nests in the city, I will set up the bird’s nest operations next to her house, and ask her to tell me if it is healthy and hygienic for me to do that. If she says it is alright, then I will set it up (in the city). We cannot have bird’s nest in the city because of hygiene.
“And if you say it is conducive for tourism, this person better go back to school and learn about hygiene, tourism and how to manage a city,” he said.
He added that as far as the state was concerned, it was agreed that bird’s nests was an industry that should be encouraged because it generates revenue for the state, but it has to be conducted in a manner that is conducive and acceptable to the people.
“I know no one wants a bird’s nest operation next to his or her house,” he said.
Yee also said that anyone saying otherwise was just talking nonsense, as far as he was concerned.
“The unacceptability of having bird’s nests in town is a statement of truth,” he stated.
He then said that the state has got its own rights and that it doesn’t have to conform to the cultures, mindset, mentality and philosophy of the rest of the world, and West Malaysia.
“Sabah is Sabah. We know what the people want, the interest of the people. We will stick to that. As far as West Malaysia is concerned, they can do what they want,” he said.
Prior to the interview, Yee presented prizes to the lucky draw winners in the recent ICT Fiesta 2012.

Don't ever think that all Doctors are very smart but you do know that they have the brain and can take pressure, that for certain and can work over 36 hours without stopping but then only the Gmen can do these to their employee and try to do this to your's, the pejabat buruh will summon you for exploiting employees but then Doctors are smart and so smart that they don't understand the law that prevent them from working too long without break.
If so, why Doctors in Gmen Hospital work so long hours and if anything happen because the Doctors are sleepy or not in control, then who shall be blamed and you still think that all Docs are smart and never complaint and D Minister isn't smart from what I see.......
Just tell the Doctor who is a minister to go to any Gmen Hospital toilet and ask him to check on the cleanliness of the toilet and you will find that our BH carry less or no disease compare to the Hospital Toilet cos I was there and infected over and over again in the toilet with different viruses because I was in the Hospital and once out of the Hospital, I was cure within a week.......
It's about time that Sabah and Sarawak make a change for the future and betterment of states, the present ones are all so C and G that everybody know about them but then when election coming, they provide all goodies to please the raayat there and the raayat vote for them and the raayat there don't understand that what they are getting is less than 1% of what going the bank account of the YBs and that's all the money are supposedly Raayat money lah.........it's like taking our money and give alittle to the raayat but keep 99% for own use.
They bring everything out except the Cs and Gs that they did and keep low profiles on them..........Sabahan, ask yourself on what have been done with all the natural wealth that now all gone and the road in Sabah still best for horses instead of cars.
Sabahan or Sarawakian, make me your CM and I assure you that I maybe Greedy but will give you 90% back and keep only 10% and that's will make me a billionaire before the 5 years end...at least, I am honest to admit that I take a cut from the state income which is the raayat income.
Without prejudices above.
Oh Yes, tell the minister concerned that I don't mind that he build one next door or up stair, provided that he keep the sound low and no sound at night and I want to tell him that I have been staying over 15 years under the BH and I am still healthy........and also I go up to the BH every weekend and check on the birds without any mask and no disease in my lung during the last X Ray 2 months ago........Just maybe that Bshit is good for the lung as I often go to Genting and you know how many smokers are in the Casino and I am a non smoker lah; msybe, we can start selling BS for lung disease preventing, joking lah..........hahahaha
