KOTA KINABALU, June 4, 2011: Several SAPP leaders from the Bumiputera came out in rebutting DAP's Chan Foong Hin' statement saying that SAPP is a 'Chinese dominated party'. "We want to rebut the false statement by Sabah DAP publicity chief Chan Foong Hin who called SAPP a "Chinese dominated party" because his statement has insulted many Sabahans of all races who support SAPP. In fact, SAPP has always been a multi-racial party struggling for the people for Sabah irrespective of race and religion although SAPP has been led by an ethnic Chinese ever since its formation in 1994.
After SAPP broke free of the BN in 2008, SAPP has been further transformed with a wider reach into the rural areas with more Bumiputra leaders at all levels.
Many Bumiputras and I have been with Datuk Yong Teck Lee from the first day that Datuk Yong contested in politics in 1985 under PBS. After 26 years, we are still firm and committed to our non-racial struggle for Sabah and people.
"I am a founding member of SAPP in 1994. Ever since 1994, SAPP has active branches in remote areas like Banggi, Tungku, Sindumin, Kemabong and most rural districts. If Chan does not know, he should ask his DAP Chief Jimmy Wong Sze Phin and Kota Kinabalu MP Dr. Hiew King Chiew who were very active Supreme Council members of SAPP when Datuk Yong was the Chief Minister. Later, Jimmy Wong joined Bersekutu and contested in Kudat in 1999. Dr. Hiew joined PBS. Although they are now DAP leaders, we hope to work with them again for the interests of Sabah," Awang Talip Awang Bagul said.
"It was a mistake for Chan to call SAPP a Chinese party and UBF (United Borneo Front) as a Kadazandusun outfit. Both SAPP and UBF struggle for Sabah under the Borneo Agenda. We advise DAP's young leaders not to fall into the same trap of divide and rule politics imposed on Sabah by KL politicians by playing with racial politics ever since 1963.
"As true Malaysians, we want to see that the people are united. We view with dismay the situation in Sarawak whereby the two parties system has become a "Chinese opposition and Bumiputra government". This is not healthy for national unity. Is this what DAP want to happen in Sabah?
"So, we as Bumiputra leaders will work hard to bring about a truly multi-racial government in Sabah by Sabahans and not one that is polarized along racial lines. This can happen under SAPP as a truly local party to unite Malaysians in Sabah.

parti dap = parti cina. Jangan tembiranglah dap. jahanam!
ReplyDeleteGerakan is also a multi-racial party but dominated by chinese.The Indians and malays in Gerakan are just 'window dressings' similar to SAPP.
ReplyDeleteThe bumiputra moslems in SAPP should leave SAPP and join PKR and the chinese should also support DAP and PKR.
Minta SAPP lantik melayu sebagai Presiden No 2 dan baru saya percaya ia Parti berbilang kaum dan bukan hanya tunjuk gambar lapan orang yang separuhnya pakai topi haji pula.Itu saja kah yang sokong SAPP?
ReplyDeleteOnly party malaya are playing race and religion card. No wonder party malaya like DAP, PKR and PAS was rejected by the people of Sabah.
ReplyDeleteIn the coming GE13, the people of Sabah will send all PKR+DAP+PAS back to malaya together with their umno.
Timbalan SAPP president adalah Tuan Hj Amde dan Datuk Eric Majimbun. Sudahpun terbukti SAPP adalah parti non-racial.
ReplyDeleteThese Dap agents of KL are just out to deny SAPP the chance in the coming GE becoz these Dap opportunists are just hoping to become YBs only. What can they do except barking at the wrong tree? They are ever so pleased to praise Umno here becoz they are both on the same boat or ship from KL.
ReplyDeleteYTL mana ada kalibar macam LKS.Dia hanya tahu mempermainkan emosi rakyat Sabah.SAPP tahu dia tidak bolih menang dengan ada nya pakatan.Itu sebab dia cari pasal dengan DAP konon nya SAPP adalah parti tempatan yang lebih layak dari pakatan untuk menjadi kerajaan.
ReplyDeleteSiapa ini YTL? Perampuan pun bolih kasih kalah dia di Batu Sapi.
Kenapa Raymond Tan,Aw dan lain lain pemimpin kanan SAPP keluar parti ya? Ada mengatakan YTL ini macam seorang diktator dalam parti.Apa dia mahu buat semua mesti kata yes.Siapa kata 'No' bolih turun pangkat.Lebih baik lari dari parti sebelum kena turun jawatan betul tak?
ReplyDeleteRaymond dan Au tidak mahu keluar BN sebab banyak projek peribadi..personal interest only...they are only interested in personal gains...nothing else.
ReplyDeleteLet us not talk about Raymond and Au, we know why they stayed in BN...$$$ and let's not waste time commenting about them coz they are goners just serving their last terms and walloping as much as possible for their retirement...Hey, support SAPP and you can never be wrong for your future, your childrens' future!
ReplyDeletelu siapa sakap tu kasi melayu plesiden no 2. Lu palui lah...lu tak tau lu langan sakap loh... lu muka parti baru lan muat 2 plesiden...mana ala parti 2 plesiden..umno ta lah ada, pbs, ta lah ada, mic ta lah ada, mic ta lah ada..lu punya pakatan minta 2 plesiden kalau mau..lu memang palui....langat langat palui....lu pikir lu pintar eh...
ReplyDeleteTunggulah sehingga PRU-13, barulah kita tahu sama ada SAPP ada kaliber untuk menang ataupun tidak.
ReplyDeletePRU13 penentu semuanya.
ReplyDeletePikir2, nilai2, & undi la dengan bijak.
ReplyDeletesebaiknya tiada parti yang bersifat perkauman. perjuangankan hak dan kepentingan untuk semua kaum.
ReplyDeleteTruth will preavail.
ReplyDeleterakyat sendiri tau samada SAPP parti yang bagaimana.
ReplyDeleteSiapa ahli SAPP akan tahu adakah parti ini racis parti atau tidak.
ReplyDeleteTapi ada kemungkinan juga SAPP hanya terbuka untuk kaum cina sahaja.
ReplyDeleteaahh all parties are alike. Don't know what are their true intention.
ReplyDeleteI just hope that when GE13 comes, everyone will play their part in voting.
ReplyDeleteHope Pakatan can defeat BN in GE13.
ReplyDeletesemua parti pun akan kata mereka berjuang untuk rakyat. tapi pasti kita dapat lihat siapa yang sebenarnya bekerja untuk kita.
ReplyDeleteKeputusan di tangan rakyat.
ReplyDeleteDAP tidak perlu memberikan nasihat kepada orang lain. DAP sendiri cuba menjadikan parti PR yang lain sebagai umpan untuk menarik pengundi. PKR dan PAS hanya patung untuk DAP.
ReplyDeleteluangkan lah lebih banyak masa mencari kelemahan2 parti lain.. teruskan berbalas2 pantun sampai PRU13.. sampai masa itu nanti baru tau hasilnya, samada berkesan atau tidak..
