bamboo river singing


sungai buluh


Bamboo River singing
The drumbeats of the nursery operators
Crying for the land squatting under TOL
They know it belongs to the State government

What rights they have?
They know they don't
Now they want to force the State
“Give me the land!”

They worked there for decades
On land under TOL
They can't claim of their rights
On businesses they know the score

So now they go on line
In Face book they want to ask for support
When the landlord asks you to move
You have no rights to stay

It all happens in Bee Anne years
Allowing the nursery operators to flourish
On land under the ownership of the State
Now they don't want to shift away

They can only plead for compassion
On the toil and capital laid
They know they don't have the rights
They should request for alternative site

Head on confrontations without legal rights
It is a losing battle to launch the fight
It is through consultation and compassion
Maybe there is light to shine.........
