By : DATUK DR. JEFFREY KITINGAN I CALLED this Press Conference in reply to what my brother, Tan Sri Pairin, was quoted as carrying pronounced in Keningau yesterday as well as that appeared in a front page of a Daily Express today.
Firstly, we need to definitely state that what was pronounced by my hermit have been all lies as well as half-truths. Secondly, when he impute to 'them' he shows his recklessness to cling to power as well as his fright of losing power.
Thirdly, we have pronounced it prior to as well as we say it again that this elections has zero to do with family matters.
He is my elder hermit as well as we have zero opposite him as well as we adore him as any hermit would do though we adore a people as well as this country more.
He may be my elder hermit though contesting opposite him does not mean display disrespect as we am not fighting him though contesting opposite him as a deputy of a Barisan Nasional, my domestic opponent. As we all know, a BN has finished a lot of wrong as well as injustice to Sabah as well as its people.
I would similar to to suggest my hermit not to use family attribute as an forgive for domestic expediency to equivocate a contest.
The people have been suffering as well as a State has mislaid its firmness as well as autonomy as well as they wish shift though things will not shift underneath a present "Barisan Nas! ional"/B N government.
Regrettably, my hermit has turn a traitor to a State as well as a people's interests preferring instead to work as well as support "Barisan Nasional", a colonizers, whom he knows really well as a celebration that had grabbed powers from prior governments undemocratically, promoted race manipulation around indeterminate MyKads since by a back-door to bootleg immigrants as well as treated with colour Sabah unfairly similar to a neo-colony of Malaya.
Let me tell we what really happened in 1994 when PBS won a elections by a razor-thin majority of twenty-five to 23.
At that time, a PBS inaugurated representatives were gathered during Pairin's central chateau as well as Pairin was denied entrance to a Istana to be sworn in as a Chief Minister. we was offering to be sworn in as CM by a afterwards Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed though we refused as well as we urged Pairin to go as well as see a PM to come to terms a resolution though he did not listen.
I was afterwards contacted by Kuala Lumpur to embrace a call from a PM as well as we brought a lawyer, Yunuf Maringking, to be a witness after obtaining accede to do so from Pairin.Yunuf Maringking is still alive currently to vouch for what happened.
Mahathir called as well as pronounced "I am going to have an announcement on TV really soon though we need your answer to my offer to be sworn in as CM" to that we replied "Sorry, we cannot accept because we am not a leader of a party. we do not wish to turn CM in this way. As my hermit has won a elections fairly, let him be sworn in as well as accept him as a CM. Please open a gate for him to go in a Istana."
To that Mahathir replied, "OK, we assimilate though tell your hermit to leave 1 or 2 Cabinet p! osts ope n to accommodate a solution."
Unfortunately, when my brother, Pairin, was sworn in, he abandoned this request as well as filled up all a Cabinet posts heading to a crisis of 1994.
Despite carrying been sworn in as CM with his Cabinet, a PBS supervision could not duty as well as they remained as 'locked in a central residence' for fright that some of their Assemblymen competence cross-over.
Rather than sitting doing nothing, we again suggested my hermit to go a Kuala Lumpur as well as meet a PM as well as come to terms for a resolution though he abandoned my advice until a incident had turn critical as well as untenable.
My hermit eventually concluded to send me as well as Bernard Dompok to meet a PM instead as well as to communicate a list of his conditions. When we presented this to Mahathir, a PM pronounced "Its too late. You can no longer put up any conditions to come to terms as 2 or 3 Assemblymen has already jumped."
So Mahathir suggested Pairin to renounce as CM or be private by a no-confidence suit in a State Assembly.
I afterwards called Pairin to communicate this advice to that Pairin responded "I am rebuilt to resign, if this will help finalise a situation".
So when a press as well as media asked me during a pronounced Hari Raya function, that my hermit referred to in a press report, we simply repeated what Pairin had said.
Unfortunately, as we know a BN media as well as press loved to try by artful means to get as well as sensationalize as well as broadcasted only a apportionment of a sentence that sounded more similar to an announcement that Pairin had resigned.
That is what happened in1994. That is a truth. The people contingency be told as well as know a truth, a whole law as well as zero though a truth. It is astray for people to accuse me of something that we did not do.
Who is essentially lying?
Regarding his alleged leave, we have zero to do with his leave as well as we know zero of it as well as we have pronounced zero in my speeches to any person or to a press or media.How can we say something that we am unknowingly of?
The law is Pairin wants to re-contest as well as reason on to his Parliamentary chair as well as fright carrying to face his hermit in a entrance ubiquitous elections.
Let a people be a decider either they wish Pairin to sojourn as MP, either he has carried out his duties as well as work effectively as well as satisfactorily for a past few years.
He does not know where we am contesting though he assumes we will be contestingthere opposite him. He is also assuming that he will be re-contesting in Keningau as well as that he is a 'winnable candidate' as propounded by a stream PM.
If we have carried out your duties as well as finished your work effectively as well as championed a means of Sabah as well as its people, we should be assured of being re-elected by a people.
There is no need to find excuses as well as promote lies to a people to disprove me, only to defend his position, unless he has failed his people as well as is not assured of being re-elected by his own people. - Sabahkini
