KUCHING, Oct 20: There is simply no logic or common sense in opposing the project of autonomous rapid transit (ART) and the proposed projects of a new airport and seaport as Tanjung Embang as Sarawak must move forward; it cannot afford to remain stagnant or backward.

This is the view of political pundit Datuk Peter Minos who argued that when the opposition objects to development that benefits Sarawak, they are either being negative, actively resisting progress, or simply opposing for the sake of opposing.

He held that all right-thinking Sarawakians appreciate that the Sarawak Government is planning ahead, raising funds for constructive developments, and delivering projects that will benefit us now and in the future.
