Illegal immigrants

Found this in a website which feature an interview with the website's editor and one of the Sabahan ministers. It is on the issue of illegal immigrants in Sabah.


Q: So, when you say that 70,000 is too low, how much is the estimate on the ground?

A: I don't know. How do you do a head count on this?

Q: If you don't know, then why do you think 70,000 is too low?

A: In 1970, Sabah had 636,431 people and Sarawak had 979,269. And Sarawak has always had more people than Sabah.

In 1980, Sabah's population went up to 929,299 and Sarawak's was 1,235,553.

In 2000, Sabah's population had increased to 2,499,389 while Sa-rawak's was 2,012,616.

The population from 1970 to 2000 went up by 285 per cent in Sabah, compared with 106 per cent in Sarawak. And the national population growth was 113 per cent in those three decades.In the 2005 consensus,

Sabah's population was 3,313,000 while Sarawak's was 2,340,000.

So, in 35 years, Sabah's population had over taken Sarawak's by nearly a million. Where did these people come from?

Q: It's not possible that Sabahans are just happy and productive people?

A: I don't know. How productive can you be? You can't have twins all the time.
