KELANTAN ADA HAK ROYALTI MINYAK KE ?

Royalti minyak: Pas perlu ubah pendekatan

KOTA BHARU 29 Jun - Kerajaan negeri diminta supaya mengubah pendekatan dengan mengadakan rundingan bersama kerajaan Pusat sekiranya mahu menuntut wang royalti minyak dan gas yang didakwa berada dalam perairan Kelantan.

Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Alwi Che Ahmad (BN-Kok Lanas) berkata, kerajaan negeri tidak harus sekadar banyak bercakap di luar daripada mengemukakan bukti kukuh serta memohon mengikut saluran yang betul.

Beliau berkata, kerajaan Pusat tiada sebab untuk menghalang sekiranya kerajaan negeri memang berhak ke atas royalti berkenaan

"Saya setuju kalau kerajaan negeri minta (royalti), kalau ada sungguh (minyak dan gas) tetapi jika hanya berdasarkan kertas sekeping sahaja tidak cukup dan tidak padan untuk bising di luar (dalam ceramah-ceramah).

"Apa salahnya buat perundingan yang baik dengan kerajaan Pusat, jangan marah-marah dan sinis pada orang bila kita hendak minta duit.

Sebelum ini, Pas yang mentadbir Kelantan sejak 18 tahun lalu mendakwa kerajaan Pusat perlu membayar royalti minyak sebanyak RM900 juta kepada kerajaan negeri ini.

Ia disebabkan beberapa buah pelantar minyak dikatakan berada dalam kawasan perairan Kelantan.

KELANTAN OIL ROYALTY: WHAT IS THE TRUTH

INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND INDUSTRY MINISTER, DATUK MUSTAPA MOHAMED TOLD THE COUNTRY THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DOES NOT OWE KELANTAN ANY OIL ROYALTY BECAUSE ALL THE OIL THAT IS DRILLED THERE ARE ACTUALLY IN AREAS PREVIOUSLY DISPUTED BY MALAYSIA AND THAILAND OR MALAYSIA AND VIETNAM.

OF COURE PAS PRESIDENT, DATUK HAJI HADI AWANG SAID THIS IS NOT TRUE BECAUSE HE HAS SEEN AN OIL PLATFROM OFF THE COAST OF KELANTAN ADN EVEN VISITED IT, ACCORDING TO HARAKAH

PRESIDEN PAS, DATO' SERI TUAN GURU ABDUL HADI AWANG MENDEDAHKAN BELIAU SENDIRI TELAH PERGI KE PELANTAR CARI GALI MINYAK DAN GAS DI PERAIRAN KELANTAN SEBAIK SAHAJA MENDAPAT BERITA TENTANG WUJUDNYA 'EMAS HITAM' ITU DI NEGERI TERSEBUT, SEDIKIT MASA DAHULU

"KEBETULAN SAYA DUDUK TEPI PANTAI, BERSAMA ORANG KE LAUT (NELAYAN) (SAYA TELAH PERGI) MELAWAT PELANTAR MINYAK, TENGOK PELANTAR MINYAK (DAN) PELANTAR GAS DI SITU.

"DALAM KAWASAN (PERAIRAN) KELANTAN, BUKAN DALAM PERAIRAN SIAM DAN PERAIRAN ANTARABANGSA,"JELASNYA KETIKA BERUCAP DALAM MAJLIS PERISYTIHARAN CALON PILIHAN RAYA KECIL DUN MANEK URAI, DI KAMPUNG MANEK URAI LAMA,KELMARIN YANG DIPETIK BULETIN ONLINE.

WHILE IT IS FINE TO GO AND VISIT AN OIL PLATFORM THAT HE THINK IS WITHIN THE KELANTAN BORDER, THE ACT ITSELF AND PAS PRESIDENT'S OPINION DOES NOT IN ANY WAY CONSTITUTE INCONTROVERTIBLE PROOF THAT
THE PLATFORM IS INDEED NOT IN A DISPUTED AREA.

THIS MAP SHOWS THE BLOCKS THAT ARE BEING MINED AS JOINT VENTURE PROJECT WITH THAILAND.

AFTER ALL KELANTAN IS A BORDER STATE AND COUNTRIES TYPICALLY PROJECT THEIR BOUNDARIES INTO AREAS OF NATURAL WEALTH AND THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMON SOURCE OF TERRITORIAL AND BOUNDARY DISPUTE.SOMETIMES PEOPLE GO TO WAR OVER IT.

ANYWAY, THE FIRST BLOCK ONLY STARTED WORK IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2008 WHILE THE SECOND BLOCK WILL COME ON STREAM IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2009 - SO IF ANY ROYALTY IS DUE AT ALL, IT WOULD BE DUE MUCH LATER WHEN THE BLOCKS START TO ACTUALLY MAKE MONEY.

AS IT IS WE CAN SEE THAT RIGHT NOW EVERYTHING IS SPLIT RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE WITH THAILAND SO TOK PA WAS TELLING THE TRUTH. IT IS NOT EXCLUSIVELY WITHIN KELANTAN TERRITORY SO THERE IS DISPUTE WHETHER THE STATE QUALIFIES FOR ANY ROYALTY.

- BLOK A 18 FASA 2 PADA TAHUN 2010

- BLOK B 17 DAN C 19 – OPERASI BERMULA SUKU KE TIGA 2009.

- BLOK PM301 DAN PM302 – OPERASI BERMULA 2011 DAN 2012

- BLOK PM3 – OPERASI BERMULA SUKU KE TIGA 2008

ACCORDING TO TOK PA, THE DISPUTE WITH THAILAND WAS AMICABLY SOLVED AND THE AREA IS JOINTLY OPERATED WITH THAILAND AND THAT IS WHY THERE IS EVEN AN OIL RIG IN KELANTAN IN THE FIRST PLACE.

SO IS THERE ANY PROOF THAT IT IS A JOINT OPERATION?

WELL LET US VISIT THIS WEBSITE EDDYRA WHICH APPEARS TO BE RUN BY SOMEONE IN THE OIL ADN GAS INDSUTRY, THIS PARTICULAR ENTRY TALKED ABOUT HIS VISIT TO CAKERAWALA OIL PLATFORM WHICH, HE SAYS IS INTERESTING BECAUSE IT IS JOINTLY OPERATED BY MALAYSIANS AND THAI CITIZENS.

WHILE THIS IS NOT CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF AN ACTUAL JOINT VETURE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THAILAND AND MALAYSIA BECAUSE OUR PLATFORMS INTERENNGANU ARE NOT JOINTLY OPERATED WITH THAI NATIONALS, THE PEOPLE THERE ARE MALAYSIANS WITH EXPATS FROM EUROPE OR AMERICA OR WHOEVER IT IS THAT THE JOINT VENTURE DRILLING COMPANY SENDS.

THE PRESENCE OF THAI AND MALAYSIAN NATIONALS ON CAKERAWALA IT IS CERTAINLY VERY STRONG CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE THAT TOK PA IS TELLING THE TRUTH.

IT IS ALSO EVIDENCE THAT ONE CANNOT SCOPE OUT A BORDER DISPUTE BY GOING ON A FISHING BOAT RIDE ONTO THE MIDDLE OF THE OVEAN. NATIONAL BOUNDARIES ARE NOT PAINTED IN RED IN ONT HE GROUDN ADN THERE ARE CERTAINLY NO WARNING BOUYS TO TELL VESSELS OF THEY ARE DANGEROUSLY NEAR THE MARINE BOUNDARY OF ANOTHER COUNTRY.

ANYWAY BELOW IS A CUT AND PASTE OF EDDYRA'S ENTRY. GO PAST THE PICTURE OF CAKERAWALA PLATFORM AND NOTE THAT THE PLATFORM IS MANNED BY THAI AND MALAYSIAN
