LESS THAN 100 people attended a so-called protest, a proof ala BERSIH held at Donggongan, Penampang Town Center upon 29, November. According to news report, thirteen NGOs represented a people from assorted groups in Sabah.
It was a protest against a passing of brand new law, Peaceful Assembly Bill 2011.
It's a tiny entertainment by any number, though noble idea behind, since it means for a people as well as a state as well as even country.
It's a platform for people to appreciate as well as voice out their displeasure of a inconsistency in a society, a injustices as well as bias by those in power.
While in Kuala Lumpur (KL), a entertainment was in large series 10,000 or so, participants have been aware of a importance as well as a repercussion of a Bill once becomes law. Though a entertainment ended a mere symbolism
The brand new law restricts as well as regulates a leisure of Assembly, which contradicts a spirit of a main law of a country, a Federal Constitution.
But there is something else which you wish to highlight here which you find really crucial as well as need to be worked out in between a people of Sabah.
Its all about competition, which you hatred to mention, approbation competition, you all though really often remove out to politicians in KL, you meant, sovereign leaders in KL will dictate domestic powers in assorted forms as well as sh! apes, ev en if you're part of them, for example, you're a leader in BN component. If in any eventuality KL leaders do not find you likeable you might not be treated with colour as partner let alone as next to partner therefore do not mental condition to be given fair shares.
I additionally see a same would occur whoever or whichever Malaya's domestic party in energy unless as well as until Sabah is strong enough to withstand domestic assault a domestic aptitude wouldn't change. It's therefore needed for Sabah people to combine as well as share a benefits together.
First let consider tiny for Sabah, whilst those involved for shift in Malaya you wish them good luck.
We a people of Sabah should work out to connect a domestic energy based, in any case of a ethnics origin, tribes as well as or domestic divides. In so long as we're similar to stars in a sky sparse all over a place you would forever similar to a preserve though spine. We have been easily divided, meek as well as have no hold up of a own.
Malaya influenced both culture, religions, politics which have been in fact ruining a amicable have up in Sabah. We're succumbed to a order as well as order policy.
To total ! up, this is a perspective of majority of a people you met, with a singular thing in usual is, they agreed which you must demeanour after ourselves given no a singular really is looking after us formed upon a experience for a final 48 years.
For example, Sabah is labeled a second lowest State in Malaysia under helm of BN UMNO never was in a palm of Sabah internal domestic parties.
Cultural differences in between people vital in Sabah as well as in Malaya have been obvious, different outlook about practicing religion, a little extreme, behaving some-more Arabic than Arab.
My view, as was exemplified during BERJAYA Government which had done us strong since of a sound mercantile management, correct utilization of natural resources, though distracted in a end due to a mania of a then Chief Minister to buy energy from a then Prime Minister which led to his (CM) as well as a party's downfall.
UMNO for Sabahans is for wealth as well as betterment of those connected, catering only for tiny territory of community, those affiliated as well as managed to rub shoulders in between a privileged. The questions remain, how most as well as for how long?
UMNO is extremist domestic party which is no longer suitable for Malaysians in general, it divides people instead of unite.
People of Sabah have been to remove out of State domestic energy unless they rebuilt to scapegoat with a singular single minded design in their heads which is, to have Sabah a respectable State, differently zero deters a bullying attitude of Federal leaders. We're as well tiny to throw a challenge, though if all of us connect ourselves together, thing would be different. All of us must realise a State of ours needs safeguard, which can be done by non other than Sabahans.
