After reading the long answer written by Datuk Henrynus Amin in response to Politikampung, I have come to the conclusion that what Henrynus is saying is that Umno has changed, it can never be toppled, so it is best for everybody to support it by remaining in BN.
And when Datuk Marcus Mojigoh voiced out Upko's dissatisfaction about the perennial problem of the illegal immigrants in Sabah, he had to come up with something a lot stronger.
His whole, very comprehensive outline of complaints against the Federal Government about the same issue was in almost total contrast to what he said about Umno in response to Politikampung.
And then as if fearing a backlash from Umno like what has been suffered by LDP, Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan immediately issued another statement to say that the problem of illegals in Sabah cannot be blamed on the federal of the State Government! Now, it doesn't take an Einstein to realise the ridiculous implications from this series of statements.
Several questions immediately comes to mind, and the most obvious is whether Henrynus as the PBS Secretary General and Pairin as PBS President, have different stands on the issue! And if that is true what really is the PBS' stand on illegals? If Pairin says both the Federal Government and the State Government cannot be blamed, then who should be blamed? Who should have implemented the immigration laws if not the Federal and State Governments? Doesn't Pairin realize that we have been talking about the Project IC, phantom voters, extraordinary increase in the state population, and so on for years now? As the Deputy Chief Minister and the former Chief Minister who was also the Chairman of the State Security Committee he should have a clear explanation about how the problem got worse over the last decades.
And also, he needs to give a suggestion on how to solve the problem.
As it is he just wants to wash his hands off the problem as if he is afraid of offending his political bosses.
As such, this begs the question - What is PBS in BN for? Now that Pairin had said that, what about his previous statements in which he said he wanted the illegal immigrants problem to be resolved by 2012? Is PBS still holding on to this demand? This awkwardness is not going to stop.
Sooner rather than, later, PBS will betray its own dilemma with other issues as well, proving that it cannot decide on doing the right thing.
PBS must know that it is high time PBS thinks about re-evaluating its real struggle and how it should fit in the current and future political setups of Sabah, especially on its relevance to the Kadazandusun struggle.
But then I don't see how PBS can resolve this dilemma if it still believes it should continue in BN.
But then, PBS cannot find the guts to leave the coalition for fear of repeating the previous 'blunder' for which Pairin has publicly apologised.
So it seems it is stuck with BN, and will continue to live in a dilemma.
And it will become more and more removed from its original struggle.

Bagus bubar saja PBS dan semua ahli nya masuk UMNO jadi tidak payah lah bodek UMNO lagi.Pemimpin PBS sudah hilang 'bisa' dan hanya jadi 'kaki angguk' kepada UMNO dan Musa Aman.Sangat memalukan kerana Pairin adalah seorang 'Huguan Siou' kepada KDM dan tindakan beliau untuk tunduk kepada UMNO dan Musa adalah satu penghinaan kepada KDM.
ReplyDeleteBagi saya gelaran "huguan Siou' adalah di beri kepada seorang wira bangsa dan dukacita Pairin telah pun memalukan gelaran tersebut dengan gaya seperti 'kerbau kena cucuk hidung'.Ini bukan wira nama nya tapi dayus atau pengecut.
UMNO can never be toppled? What kind of hallucination is this?
ReplyDeleteUMNO was toppled in Selangor,Kedah,Perak,Kelantan and Penang.All these areas are UMNO majority areas yet they fell to Pakatan like pinballs.Did they forget that the total number of votes cast for Pakatan in GE12 in Semenanjung was higher than UMNO/BN?
If PBS leaders want to stay in BN because of projects or other rewards,say so lah? You cannot cheat the rakyat anymore.
The real reason why Pairin need to support UMNO is simply because of two incriminating cases hanging over his head. Reliable sources claim Pairin is longing to retire due to his deteriorating health but because of pressure from Najis he has no choice but to hoodwink the poor KDM again with false hope from his tataba which actually is already lost.
ReplyDeletePBS has subdued itself to Umno BN so its relevance is no more...gone to the dogs!
ReplyDeleteJangan kasi malu KDM.letak jawatan saja sebagai 'Huguan Siou'kalau pengecut.Wira apa ini? Gadai maruah bangsa sendiri untuk wang dan jawatan.
ReplyDeleteBiar rakyat KDN yang menentukan sama ada PBS masih releven ataupun tidak.
ReplyDeleteBest way to know is to wait for the election.
ReplyDeleteI hope all parties, doesn't matter from the opposition or government will work hard to find solution to the people's problem.
ReplyDeletehanya rakyat yang boleh menjawab sama ada PBS relevan atau tidak..
ReplyDeletePBS masih relevan buat KDM selagi ia memperjuangkan hak dan kepentingan mereka. jika sebaliknya, lebih baik rakyat tidak memberi sokongan kepada PBS.
ReplyDeleteparti seperti PBS perlu ad bagi memperjuangkan hak2 KDM. jika tiada PBS, siapa nak perjuangakan hak2 KDM.
ReplyDeleteMemang PBS itu adalah untuk KDM sudah pasti masih relevan dengan KDM.
ReplyDeletekalau masih ada sokongan maknanya masih releven la.. tunduk tidak semestinya takut. memang sudah kebiasaan yang dibawah menghormati yang diatas. cuma dalam Pakatan dan parti pembangkang sahaja yang membolehkan orang bawah bertumbuk dengan orang atasan sebab politik ganas datangnya daripada mereka..
ReplyDeletekonon minta Pairin berundur dari umno.. kamu siapa mahu Pairin tunduk ikut kemahuan kamu? biarlah dia fikir sendiri masa depan dia. kalau dia tidak relevan, biarlah rakyat sendiri buktikan masa PRU13 nanti..
ReplyDeleteSaya memang sokong pbs dari dulu. Tetapi sekarang saya hanya nampak SAPP yang betul2 memperjuangkan untuk rakyat Sabah terutama bumiputra kita.
ReplyDeletePBS adalah untuk memperjuangkan hak semua rakyat bukan hanya KDM saja.
