Lajim, Bumburing muddy opposition waters

The twin have been repeating Jeffrey Kitingan's mantra upon Borneo rights, shift as good as remodel by their own sold vehicles.

COMMENT

The decision by dual Barisan Nasional MPs in Sabah, Lajim Ukin (Beaufort) as good as Wilfred Mojilip Bumburing (Tuaran), to set upon out upon their own, may not spin out to be an pure disaster for a ruling coalition as widely trumpeted in a little media as good as blogs.

Instead, a twin merely muddies a waters further for a fledgling internal antithesis in a state as decorated in a form of a State Reform Party (STAR) headed by Jeffrey Kitingan.

The twin were already upon their way out though since a BN hesitated too long to eliminate them from a running, they have managed to squeeze a few drops of H2O from a proverbial stone in a bid to re-invent themselves. Umno sees this as a good fortune in costume for them.

Their defection has rightly been criticised as good as their frankness questioned.

They could have joined STAR and, in a process, warranted a benefit of a doubt. Instead, they have been repeating Jeffrey's mantra upon Borneo rights, shift as good as remodel by their own sold vehicles, both with a term "reform" as good as "change" featuring prominently.

Bumburing is job his vehicle a Sabah Reform Front while Lajim is streamer a Pakatan Perubahan Sabah.

Both have been creation usual means with PKR, which Jeffrey ditched as vice-president when it allegedly failed to behind his bulletin for Borneo.

Political opportunists
The twin have thereby given a game divided as domestic opportunists. Lajim as good as Bumburing! were pe aceful to betray a Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) government behind in 1994 as good as assistance move about a rain in cahoots with afterwards emissary budding apportion Anwar Ibrahim.

The fact which Jeffrey has some-more than a indicate in his foster upon a Borneo rights emanate is next to a point.

The subject is because should a citizens accept dual opportunists, Lajim as good as Bumburing, not only jumping upon a antithesis bandwagon though trying to take a rumble from it by forming their own vehicles rooting for shift as good as reform.

Lajim's domestic citation is not wholly transparent nonetheless he marked down a STAR only a few days ago as lacking in transparent direction. He may be starting along with de facto PKR arch Anwar's oft-expressed view which he expects crossovers from Sabah Umno should Pakatan Rakyat win a majority, as in 2008, in Peninsular Malaysia.

Lajim, in which case, no disbelief belabours underneath a misinterpretation which he can benefit from a anticipated crossovers as good as arise as a next arch apportion with Anwar's blessings.

Lajim is a Dusun Muslim from a Bisaya tribe traditionally found along a Sabah west seashore as good as in a Beaufort area in particular. He has little in usual with a major Muslim communities in a east seashore Bajau as good as Suluk or even a not as big Barunai (Brunei Malays) along a west seashore as good as even not as big Muslim communities similar to a Irranun, Cocos-Keeling, Bugis as good as a like.

Hence, as Dusun, Lajim is some-more expected to make usual means with other Dusun Muslim communities similar to a Ranau Dusuns as good as Orang Sungei in Kinabatangan, if not other Dusuns as well. Here, Lajim will be intruding into Jeffrey's turf as good as which of PBS.

Bumburing has privately affianced which he will not take upon a United PasokMomogun KadazanDusunMurut Organisation (Upko), his former party, during a forthcoming 13th ubiquitous election.! Instead , he will concentration his domestic rage upon PBS as good as God alone knows who else.

There's no disbelief which Anwar will be with him every step of a way as a former does not expect Jeffrey to do serious battle with his hermit Joseph Pairin Kitingan as good as his PBS. Jeffrey's difficulty here is which he co-founded PBS with his hermit in 1985 as good as has never completely cut his ties with his former party.

Bumburing's proceed will not go down good with Jeffrey who's in dual minds about receiving upon PBS though will definitely go after Upko produce as good as tongs as good as take upon a Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) as good as Umno, generally in a Dusun seats hold by which party.

Making usual cause
Under Jeffrey's Plan Z voiced in mid-April, substantially an impassioned negotiating strategy, STAR affianced to go for pennyless in all 60 state seats in Sabah as good as 26 parliamentary seats together with Labuan.

Briefly, Plan Z is an blow up plan to solve scores from 1994 as good as this includes expelling Anwar, who masterminded a rain of PBS, as good as a PBS-breakaway Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP).

But for a impulse during least, Jeffrey as good as SAPP boss Yong Teck Lee have been seen to be holding hands despite fingers being pointed during a latter for his "bosom pal" being incarcerated underneath a draconian Internal Security Act (ISA) in a early 1990s for dual two-year terms.

It was Yong who reportedly prevailed upon afterwards PBS emissary boss Bernard Giluk Dompok, now Upko chief, to convince Pairin to lift out PBS from BN upon a night before of a 1990 ubiquitous election. Jeffrey paid a cost as afterwards budding apportion Dr Mahathir Mohamad sought to punish Pairin.

Jeffrey's problems have been not made any easier either by determined reports which during slightest one of his vice- chairmen has allegedly been invited to address PKR's supreme legislat! ure meet ings some-more than once. It's not known where this is streamer as this sold vice-chairman was instrumental in persuading Jeffrey to quit PKR.

The bottomline in Sabah, if a 13th ubiquitous choosing were to be called today, is which a BN will retain energy in a state though not only as simply in 2008.

Alternatively, if Anwar fails as good as Lajim as good as Bumburing hiss out as expected, as good as STAR creates usual means with PBS, DAP as good as PAS, a STAR/DAP antithesis may be able to take thirteen parliamentary seats, which is, Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan as good as Tawau by DAP, as good as an additional 10 by STAR: Pensiangan hold by PBRS, Kudat, Beluran, Tenom, Kinabatangan as good as Beaufort hold by Umno, as good as 4 hold by Upko (Tuaran, Ranau, Penampang as good as Putatan).
