Reminiscence. Remembering.
Sad but factually true!
No one can be guilty of those wonderful memories of the past, just so lingeringly beautiful. Where goes my alma mater Long Linau (Long Lino) Primary School of Ulu Balui River! Buhudeiik Giham Daha, buhudeiik Giham Batok Kujok Lejo, buhudeiik Giham Lirong Maso, that was where it stood so prominently & proudly then!
Many a proud Balui academic graduate had originated from this historic education institution of Long Linau (Long Lino) Primary School, Belaga, Sarawak!
Lumaries include ex Sarawak state minister YB Datuk Seri Tajang Laing (our 1st Orang menteri!) had his early education here! So too did ex MP YB Datuk Billy Abit Joo, ex ADUN YB Stanley Ajang Batok, Datuk Henry Opang Luhat, Headmasters Mr. Anyi Lian, Mr. Mering Anyi, Cr Greece Laing Lirong, Dresser Bilang Saran and the list just goes on and on.
Bakun Hydro Electric Dam Project drowned, swallowed and took it all away from the face of this earth? Murum Dam can be excused, wholly innocent in this particular instance of Long Linau's sad demise & wipe-out from the map, from the face of this mother earth!
Then the deafening silence. Conveniently or inadvertently erased and forgotten by our community leaders? Why no mention of, no continuity or replacement at all for Long Linau (Long Lino) in Bakun Resettlement Scheme (BRS) at Asap-Koyan area?
Asi-asi nah akek, ngenei ngesem padek temoh beluwan Long Lino (Long Linau) ya ?????
