Pakatan has zero to suggest Sabah
Pushparani Thilaganathan |March 15, 2012
In a quarrel of egos in Sabah, Umno as well as BN need usually to lay tight clutching their money bags, to return as victors.
ANALYSIS
KOTA KINABALU: It is tough to be honest with ourselves, in actuality some never accomplish it. In a case of Pakatan Rakyat members PKR, DAP as well as PAS, it is controversial if they dug in to their deepest turn of self-honesty in their preference to contest almost all a seats in Sabah in a 13th ubiquitous election. National DAP vice-president Tan Kok Wai's contentious have a difference which Pakatan will "sweep all a seats in Sabah, without any room for internal parties" has left a sour taste in a mouths of locals, Chinese as well as others alike.
No a single likes being intimidated or bossed over, that's what Umno as well as Barisan Nasional is already we do in Sabah. In fact, that's what Anwar Ibrahim himself did approach behind when he was in cahoots with a afterwards leadership. Sabahans remember how Anwar betrayed their trust.
In which case what has Anwar-led Pakatan as well as a coalition members PKR, DAP as well as PAS have to suggest Sabah? Nothing.
So, what is a genuine deal?
With Barisan Nasional, it's an open secret. Everyone from a legalized illegal immigrants to Chief Minister Musa Aman knows Umno as well as BN's needs money, as well as all of it.
With income comes unthinkable power.
So what is Sabah Pakatan, quite PKR as well as DAP, selling here ! which is bigger as well as better than Musa, Umno as well as BN? It's not self-esteem, because they do not have that, relying mainly upon borrowed certainty or "tumpang glamour" as they say here
Umno organisation with PKR shirt
For which have a difference what can Sabah Pakatan do which internal parties, most of whose members have been dripping in a realities of a inadequacies in a state, can't do for themselves?
A cursory question a couple of days ago drew candid remarks from a domestic spectator from Kinabatangan, some 600km from here.
"How distant can we tumble from a tree ba they have been Umno organisation with brand new shirt (PKR).
"Mostly a same yarn oil kingship they want to give us 20%. They do not see what they take. It's Umno inside PKR shirt. How opposite can a meditative be. They do not care about us a people. They do not know us.
"If Pakatan is meddlesome in Sabah people's welfare, afterwards stay out. Finance internal parties strike a deal," pronounced a observer.
The perspective which Pakatan should move out of Sabah as well as leave a internal boys to slug it out with Umno as well as a now weak allies LDP, PBS, Upko, PBRS, Gerakan, MCA is not new.
It's been in a air for a while though Pakatan is not listening.
No place for Pakatan
Dr Felix Chong, who until not long ago was DAP Tanjung Aru chief, feels a "arrogance" inside of DAP, something which wasn't quite there prior to a party's 12-seat win in Sarawak final year.
He now believes it is not probable for peninsula-based parties to hold up Sabah's causes, which in most instances is alien to them.
"Sabah is not a equivalent of any state in Semenanjung (Peninsula) so a agenda of peninsular parties is not indispensably germane to Sabah. They (peninsular parties) cannot go all out to hold up Sabah's rights as well as interests.
"Just! having blow up domestic programmes as well as ceramah have been insufficient.
"If they (peninsular parties) have been frank in helping to revive Sabah's rights as well as interests, afterwards they contingency have an blow up action devise for Sabah as well as Sabahans.
"And they contingency have a domestic will to implement them," he said.
Its a valid view. Neither PKR's Buku Jingga (Orange Book) nor DAP's declaration offers deep insights in to Sabah.
A internal alloy who described himself as a "keen spectator of Borneo politics" rubbished PKR's manifesto.
"Did we review PKR's manifesto? I review somewhere which a Sabah bit was an annexe sheet which they printed in a precipitate prior to Anwar (Ibrahim) came here.
"That's how critical we are. Sabah cannot be part of a bigger design anymore.
"Sabah contingency be THE picture," he said, alluding to PKR's contentious offer in a Sabah Buku Jingga together with a devise to legitimise a illegals.
PKR in wilderness
His keen knowledge of both Umno as well as PKR has left him with a perspective which neither celebration should be left to plunder serve a state coffers.
PKR, he said, is in a forest with no clever care since Jeffrey Kitingan quit a celebration in 2009. He was a party's inhabitant vice-president as well as Sabah chief.
"PKR never recovered from Jeffrey. PKR has no charismatic personality in Sabah. Thamrin (Jaini) is a decent man though he's has no vision. A few energetic people assimilated PKR, afterwards left.
"Who have been they starting to field? DAP is roving upon Sarawak's success as well as a strength in a Peninsula. It's become too haughty.
"It doesn't mean they will win here. Even in their Chinese seats, members have been divided. PAS is here we do missionary work. They have no domestic appeal here.
"In my view, they have been a most essential party, rea! listic a bout their chances in Sabah, " he said.
He predicted "embarrassing defeats" for PKR as well as "DAP will be lucky to keep a seats".
Meanwhile, SAPP Youth arch Edward Dagul believes which a peninsula-based parties have been pushing divided electorate who had yet to confirm in in between BN as well as a opposition.
"The constant quarrels in Pakatan is pushing divided fence-sitters. The actuality is in any election, fence- sitters have been a most critical organisation which determines a outcome.
"In Sabah, if all or most of a electorate who voted BN in a final ubiquitous choosing go on to opinion BN, afterwards there is no possibility for a antithesis in Sabah.
"And without Sabah as well as Sarawak, there is no possibility for Pakatan to constraint Putrajaya. This is a reality in Malaysian politics today," he said.
War of egos
SAPP, meanwhile, is battling to flesh a approach in to domestic relevance in Sabah.
It is now in in between Jeffrey's fast growing STAR celebration as well as a Pakatan boys.
The celebration has tried brokering a understanding with Pakatan though they sent him behind with an annoying three-seat deal.
Now SAPP contingency solve with STAR as well as which has not been easy, according to comparison SAPP personality who declined to be named.
"Actually there is no problem in in between Yong (Teck Lee) as well as Jeffrey. They have been talking. SAPP is keen upon parliament as well as some state seats. Jeffrey is austere upon all a KDM [Kadazandusun as well as Murut] seats as well as some mixed areas. He's told SAPP they can take a Muslim seats. STAR is not interested.
"But a problem is a people surrounding Jeffrey. The have been always messing with his mind. One impulse he as well as Yong strech an agreement. Then Jeffrey goes behind as well as dual days later he changes his mind. This is a situation," pronounced a le! ader.
To his credit, Jeffrey as well as his bearing to empower a thoughts as well as suggestion of a Sabahans of their most simple rights is working.
His musical instrument call is a Borneo Agenda as well as Sabah for Sabahans as well as a fever is catching. His supporters have been increasing by a day.
STAR starting it alone or with SAPP, is poised to give a stubborn Pakatan boys a serious fight.
In this quarrel of egos, Umno as well as BN need usually to lay tight clutching their money bags, to return as victors.
*****************************************************************************
I have spoken to most Sabahans who feel which Sabah should be left to internal personality similar to Jeffrey to run. Sabah is opposite in most ways to Peninsula. Culture, Religion as well as taste. After a genocide of Fuad, Sabahans have been have orphan by UMNO elites. Many of my friends became millionaires as well as billionaires, though they have been civil servants in Peninsula. How is which probable when they have been never there? This is because a people in a Federal Government have been a ones who confirm who gets which projects etc. The elect have been huge as well as routinely income have been transfer from Labuan, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia as well as Hongkong.
Azmin Ali is very arrogant when traffic with Sabahans. To Azmin Ali's thoughts Sabah go to PKR after kicking out UMNO cronies. PKR still does not understand they cannot bull nap in to Sabah as well as think which a small participation of Anwar can grasp that.This coming choosing will break a dream of Azmin Ali for great as well as will in a future cut off a muck goal of DAP as well as PAS.
After so most dickey years living underneath a shadow as well as removing abuse by UMNO, Sabahans will never certitude a similar to of Azmin Ali who is a expect copy of UMNO. Further more Azmin has never shown distress for his bitchy wa! ys as we ll as meditative which he is a most appropriate chairman to TELL Sabah what to do as well as what manner a State should be run.
This choosing is engaging as Sabahans had only enough of UMNO as well as PKR bitchy behaviour.
I believe STAR knows what they have been we do as well as how they should move Sabah forward.
