[1] [2]
He was born in Penampang,Sabah,and received his education in SM St. Michael,Penampang and SM La Salle,Tanjung Aru. [3] Later he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of East London. He is also a Fellow of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and Fellow of the Royal Institution of Surveyors Malaysia (RISM).
He started his career as a valuer at the Sabah Lands &Surveys Department in 1978. Then he left the public sector and worked as a private valuer for about five years from 1980 until 1985.
Initially a member of the United Sabah Party (PBS),Dompok contested,and won,both the Sabah State Legislative Assembly seat of Moyog,and the federal seat of Penampang,in separate 1986 elections. PBS won a majority in the state assembly at the election,and Dompok was appointed the state's finance minister. [4]
He became the President of the UPKO,then known as the Sabah Democratic Party (PDS),in 1994. The party was formed when Dompok and others split from the PBS to join the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition and deliver the coalition a majority in the Sabah State Legislative Assembly. [4] After switching to the Barisan Nasional,he lost his parliamentary seat at the 1995 election to a PBS candidate. [5]
Despite losing his federal seat,Dompok remained a state assemblyman and a senior member of the Barisan Nasional state government that he had helped to form. He served in a range of ministries in the state government,before assuming the post of Chief Minister,on a rotating basis,from 1998 to 1999. In 1999 he won the federal parliamentary seat of Kinabalu,defeating a PBS candidate. [5] In 2004,he joined the Federal Cabinet as Minister in the Prime Minister's Department and in 2008,he became Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities. His federal parliamentary career ended at the 2013 election,when he lost his parliamentary seat to Darell Leiking of the People's Justice Party (PKR). [6]
Bernard was recalled from his posting following the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government's decision to stop the previous practice adopted by the Barisan Nasional (BN) of appointing politicians to head overseas missions. [7] [8] [9]
