NSTopinion The Sarawak Report was originally conceived to highlight the allegedly corrupt nexus between Sarawak politics and the way business is done in the state, particularly the timber trade, which has made some favoured local tycoons wealthy.

, Clare Rewcastle Brown made some rather interesting observations.

Wrote Brown: “After all these years the people of Sarawak also deserved to get rid of their marauding kleptocrats. Her laser-like, near-missionary zeal in exposing scandals in high places can no longer be dismissed as the handiwork of armchair self-righteous foreign critics.Brown writes as if Taib remains today a pivotal political force in Sarawak.In fact, there are those who will argue that Taib increasingly cuts an isolated persona, ensconce in the Astana in Kuching or, more likely, in his sprawling private residence.

Further, while the current “pro-autonomy” fire in the state is raging, it may only be partially true that some personalities or unseen forces are fanning the flames for whatever may be their political or other purposes. But it is safe to assume that the dynamics of this particular storm have more to do with vociferous and spontaneous anti-federal sentiments than any antipathies towards Taib or the current state administration.
