Madeline Berma wants to change the perception that Suhakam is a ‘toothless tiger’
“There are very little complaints in Sarawak to the point that the federal is quite worried,” Berma, an economist, told FMT, referring to the commission’s headquarters. She said the fact that there is only one Suhakam office in the whole of Sarawak – in Kuching – is also not helpful. But she said if there were parents who thought their children had been denied the right to education simply because they were poor, then they could bring it up to Suhakam.
She hopes to change this. “We need to be more aggressive in terms of promoting our role as Suhakam in the state.”
