Organisational success rooted in unity, says Sri Aman MP
SIBU (May 25): The spirit of unity within an organisation is the key to success and progress, said Sri Aman MP Dato Sri Doris Sophia Brodie.
According to her, an organisation's strength is not solely in its membership size, but in its ability to unite toward achieving common goals.
'If we are busy fighting among ourselves, we will lose focus on the original purpose of establishing the organisation, and the development we want to achieve will be stunted,' she said when officiating at the pre-Gawai Dayak celebration here last night.
Doris commended the collaborative efforts of four organisations, namely the Sarawak Dayak National Union (SDNU) Sibu, Sarakup Indu Dayak Sarawak (SIDS) Sibu, Orang Ulu National Union (OUNA) Sibu and Dayak Bidayuh National Union (DBNA) Sibu for working together to make the event a success.
She noted the collaboration among various Dayak entities reflects the spirit of togetherness that other organisations should emulate.
'I am very interested in the theme of tonight's event, 'berserakup kitai mansang, begempung kitai senang, segulai sejalai'. However, I would like to add another one, which is 'nuju pemansang' because unity drives development,' she said.
Meanwhile, Doris reminded attendees that Gawai Dayak is not just a celebration but a symbol of gratitude for the hard work carried out throughout the year, especially by paddy farmers.
'Gawai Dayak teaches us to appreciate the hard work and the blessings of harvest. This is also in line with the value of unity. When we work together, we reap success together,' she said.
She added the pre-Gawai Dayak celebration serves as an important platform for strengthening community relationships and demonstrating the true strength that unity brings.
At the event, she announced an allocation of RM15,000 for SIDS Sibu.
Additionally, Ngemah assemblyman Anyi Jana and Bawang Assan assemblyman Dato Sri Wong Soon Koh also allocated RM5,000 and RM10,000, respectively.
Among those present were political secretaries to Sarawak Premier Susan Clement and William Anut, SIDS president Dato Alice Jawan, SIDS Sibu chairperson Angelyn Uchi Maseng, Temenggong Stanley Geramong and Cr Sean Wong. Doris Sophia Brodie lead pre-Gawai Dayak celebration unity
