KOTA KINABALU: Most of the current Sabah Umno assemblymen may be replaced in the 13th general election. While some sense it is coming their way, other names being mentioned in the grapevine may come as a surprise.
Party insiders here said only a few of the incumbent Umno assemblymen will be retained to re-contest.
Currently, Umno is holding 32 state seats.
Pressed for the actual number of incumbents being retained, the insider, who refused to be named, said “a revelation could start a panic, even war” within Sabah Umno.
“But suffice it to say that many can start packing now. And those who have shown signs of being disloyal can expect to be dropped,” the insider told FMT.
“Disloyal” in this case would refer directly to Umno westcoast warlord Lajim Ukin who has been widely rumoured to be joining Sabah People’s Front. Also on the “disloyal” list is Rahim Ismail of Pantai Manis, Papar. Rahim has a history of disagreements with Chief Minister and Sabah Umno chairman Musa Aman.
“There are also a few other names. We must understand that since the last general election, Umno Sabah has been in a process of renewal and rebranding.
“But then one or two of those who were to be dropped (in the 2008 election) had to be allowed to contest due to intense pressures, some to the point of rebelling.
“But now that the Prime Minister [Najib Tun Razak] has been campaigning for transformation on all fronts, Musa has complied accordingly,” the insider said.
Sabah Umno list with PM
Meanwhile, Musa said yesterday that the party had finalised the list of candidates for the coming general election.
He said the list has been submitted for Najib’s approval.
When asked by reporters if there will be any new faces in the line-up, Musa said, “I cannot tell you now.”
To a question if Sabah Umno would be asking to contest the same number of seats it did in 2008, Musa said: “That’s up to the prime minister who is also the Barisan Nasional chairman.”

Kenyataan Musa membuktikan bahawa Umno dan parti-parti Malaya tidak boleh mempertahankan hak-hak Sabah.
ReplyDeleteCalun mau diluluskan apa lagi hak-hak Sabah mcm autonomi, hasil minyak dll.
Calon yang terbaik mestilah dipilih dengan teliti, ini untuk memastikan bahawa mereka yang dipilih boleh menjadi pemimpin yang layak dan berkemampuan.
Deletemaknanya Pakatan pun tidak boleh mempertahankan hak2 Sabah la kan..
DeleteSame thing happens in Pakatan Rakyat, Anwar Ibrahim told all members not to question the appointment of candidates.
Deletepastikan calon yag dipilih adalah calon terbaik dan boleh menjalankan tanggungjawb dgn baik.
DeleteI have nothing to against but somehow we need someone who is really enthusiastic to make us go forward.
DeleteCalon yang di pilih harus berjiwa rakyat.
DeleteGood News!Any disloyal YBs must be replaced but not forgetting also the 'gatal and miang' Ybs who have been keeping mistresses and feeding them with $$$$$$$$$.
ReplyDeleteThose who could not do their job should also be dropped so it will not affect the party's overall performance.
Deleteif only they join opposition, then all they gatal and miang will be accepted..
DeleteCleanse and moisturize, that's the big fat secret.
DeleteThe best cm ever is M U S A A M A N k keep the good work dsp musa aman may god bless u tq.
ReplyDeleteThat's right MA is the "best" CM and dats why Sabah is the poorest State in Malaysia and 40% of all poor in Malaysia are Sabahans.
DeleteSabahans open your eyes as there are reports of hundreds of millions of money in Hong Kong. They rightly belong to all Sabahans.
What about the RM15.0 billion "taken" by Petronas each year from Sabah?
Listen to MA's cybertroopers and you Sabahans will remain the poorest while certain people will get millions and millions.
Petronas agreeement to have 5% royalties paid back to Sabah is made by Harris Salleh, why blame Musa on this?
DeleteThose who are not loyal should be dropped from the beginning so not to risk any of them jumping ship when they come into power or turn table against their own component members.
ReplyDeleteWell, they are still human being somehow. Jump ship is a norm.
DeleteDrop those who are liability and parasite to the party.
ReplyDeletesudah tentu...tidak perlu ambil risiko kerana musuh dalam parti lebih berbahaya daripada musuh luar parti.
DeleteJangan jadikan parti sebagai satu medan untuk memperbodohkan rakyat.
DeleteHope to see more new faces with clean background.

ReplyDeleteWell we just need someone who is willing to sacrifice time and give up all just to make head ways.
ReplyDeleteI suggest disciplinary measures are to be taken upon anyone who falls to abide or decides to be disloyal.
ReplyDeleteIneffective ones should be taken out or dropped where they cease to be operative
ReplyDeleteMaybe they should be given a second chance after all.
ReplyDeleteDecisions and actions should be taken where and when necessary.
