Third Force to encircle Umno

The stream domestic landscape in the nation is fruitful for all minority parties in Barisan Nasional or differently to opt for the approach confederation system.

COMMENT

After the 2008 general election, what we have been witnessing have been structural changes in the Malaysian domestic landscape: the emergence of the two-party complement in Malaysia Umno the categorical member of the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition, as well as the antithesis agreement led by PKR as well as PAS.

But this is distinct the two-party complement in the little countries such as the US, where either the single of the dual parties can win an choosing as well as form the supervision as well as the pick automatically becomes the opposition.

In Malaysia, the dual celebration complement is unique. Firstly, it is the Malay-based two-party complement as well as secondly, conjunction celebration can form the supervision upon the own yet combining the confederation with the non-Malay minority parties.

Hence the domestic landscape in the nation provides the right unfolding for all minority parties in BN or differently to opt for the (direct) confederation complement of government, whereby the minority parties will contest regulating their own celebration ticket.

And after the general choosing is over, these minority parties can come to terms to stick upon either the single of the dual Malay-based parties. Thus, the arrangement of the sovereign supervision would be based upon the two-party complement as well as the confederation system.

It is usual knowledge which there have been so most sum abuses committed by Umno underneath the name of the supervision as we! ll as th e BN entity.

Only Umno wields so much domestic as well as mercantile power, leaving the pick teenager member parties sharing the leftovers.

This has been Umno's process as well as practices since 1981 following the Mahathir undemocratic-authoritarian rule.

The pick member parties, yet members of the BN, have been all scored equally down underneath the Umno complement of controls which enables the latter to become the de facto sovereign government.

When Najib Tun Razak took over the premiership in 2009, he initially tried some-more democratic approaches such as the 1Malaysia aphorism as well as economic, domestic as well as electoral reforms, yet with little success.

Of late, it is getting clearer which Najib, identical to Dr Mahathir Mohamad, shares identical ideology which usually by undemocratic-authoritarian order can Umno go upon to hold such domestic as well as mercantile energy as well as say the hold upon pick races as well as parties .

Two-pronged strategy needed
This special two-party domestic complement requires the third force which has the two-pronged strategy to encircle Umno's tyrannical energy as well as to column up the antithesis Pakatan plus confederation as well as make firm the system.

Let's look during the components of the Third Force:

i) Direct confederation complement during inhabitant as well as state levels.
Across the nation there have been most teenager domestic parties, whether in the BN or opposition, which can group up as well as shape metal the usual platform by the approach confederation system.

Parties identical to DAP, MCA, MIC, PRS, SPDP, SUPP, Pesaka, SAPP as well as others can contest in an choosing regulating their own celebration symbols.

we hold the people can accept such the joined domestic body to mangle up Umno as well as PBB omnipotence (in Sarawak). A approach confederation complement acts as th! e check- and-balance against the prevalence of an undemocratic, dictatorial kind of government.

After the 13th general election, these third force domestic parties can work out which of the dual categorical Malay parties they instruct to stick upon en confederation or upon particular basis.

Under the approach confederation system, the confederation partner is not scored equally down to the categorical or even the infancy member celebration in the government.

It is the loose partnership whereby any partner can give up the supervision as well as stick upon the opposition.

However, if the partners who give up have the infancy of seats, they can ensue to form another brand new confederation government.

So there is leisure of preference any celebration can stick upon or leave the statute celebration or the opposition.

Hence, in the arrangement of the sovereign supervision as well as the particular state governments in Malaysia, the approach confederation complement is the most appropriate pick for each minority party.

If all the minority parties in BN or antithesis group up to stick upon PKR as well as PAS, then Umno's prevalence is history during the inhabitant or state levels in Peninsular Malaysia as well as Sabah as well as Sarawak.

ii) Cooperation agreement in Sarawak
Within the state BN, generally for Sarawak, teenager parties can work out the cooperation pact, namely with the newly revamped SUPP (Sarawak United People's Party), PRS (Parti Rakyat Sarawak) as well as SPDP (Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party).

The latter dual can even merge to form the stronger entity.

This kind of cooperation can form the Third Force during state turn to opposite PBB's (Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu) omnipotence of power.

If the Pesaka wing of PBB snaps as well as attaches itself to the grouping, the some-more the merrier.

If the state Pakatan wishes to stick upon the pact, the! n PBB is completely encircled.

we hold the infancy of the Malays would await such the pact.

This may enforce the little of the PBB leaders who have been not aligned with Taib Mahmud to cruise crossing over to PAS or PKR to further make firm the third force in the state prior to the 13th inhabitant polls, yet the state would not be holding any state election.

iii) Minority parties
DAP is already the full partner of the Pakatan coalition. There have been most third force teenager parties, including those in the BN, which can stick upon the Pakatan allaince prior to the 13th general election.

After all, the BN teenager parties have been great as passed in the BN as well as underneath the clutches of Umno.

iv) Bersih confederation of NGOs
Bersih can fool around the crucial purpose to ensure Umno as well as PBB loses the omnipotence by being part of the third force.

Since the success in launching Bersih 1.0 (November, 2007) as well as Bersih 2.0 (July 2011) overcoming all the fears as well as certainty barrier it should undertake the bigger as well as some-more responsible role.

Definitely the transformation will change the choosing by casting votes direction in the entrance general election.

v) Young voters
The enrichment of report technology has since bloggers as well as online headlines portals an entrance to couple up with the immature electorate by cyber space to keep them sensitive of stream affairs in the nation which is not available in the mainstream media.

With the great feedback of information, most of the immature electorate who have been not aligned with any domestic celebration can change the choosing by casting votes direction in favour of the opposition.

Their concern is mainly their careers as well as earnings. Under the present administration, the abuses of energy have been definitely starting to imperil their future.

vi) Umno f! actions< /em>
There have been factions inside of Umno which have been not aligned to Najib. Pakatan can set upon the deal with these factions inside of Umno upon the appointment of the next budding apportion in the eventuality the BN wins.

In suitability with Article 43.2.(2) of the Federal Constitution, the personality of the infancy celebration cannot automatically become the budding apportion yet has to go for choosing by casting votes in the Dewan Rakyat (Parliament).

Whoever commands the certainty of the infancy of the MPs shall be allocated as the arch senior manager of the government, which is, the budding minister.

MPs from both camps can work out an amicable solution as to the most appropriate as well as right chairman to be allocated as the budding apportion by the Dewan Rakyat.

vii) General community
Pakatan should also emanate greater recognition among the people of the sum abuses of energy by Umno which have been unpropitious to the destiny of all Malaysians.

All polite servants, including the military as well as the army, as well as farming folks should be sensitive of the need to change the government. The people have nothing to remove yet to benefit if Umno is removed from power.
