Objectives of the Convention
In the forthcoming 13th General Elections (GE-13) that is expected to be called within the next 6 months, Sabah and Sarawak are expected to be kingmakers in deciding who will form the next federal government in Putrajaya.
The Convention will provide the key platform and opportunity for STAR’s national leaders from Sabah and Sarawak to convey to the Party’s grassroot leaders the importance of and the roles that STAR are expected to play in the GE-13 given the kingmakers role of Sabah and Sarawak.
The grassroot leaders will similarly have an equal opportunity to contribute their ideas which will attract better support of the electorate and strengthen the Party in the coming elections.
The Convention will also show that STAR is a national political party and put an end to rumour-mongering against the party which indirectly is a compliment to the party’s strength and support. If the Party had no strength and did not have the people’s support, there would have been no need to spread the false rumours against the party and its leaders.
Unity in the Borneo Agenda for Sabah and Sarawak
The Convention will provide a previously unavailable avenue for the people of Sabah and Sarawak to be united in their common interests under a common Borneo-based party under STAR.
Together with the Borneo Agenda being championed by STAR, the people in Sabah and Sarawak will also have the platform to seek the restoration of the rights of Sabah and Sarawak under the Malaysia Agreement and the 20-Points and the 18-Points respectively.
Biggest Delegates Turnout
The Convention will see its largest delegates turnout of more than 2,000 delegates with some 300 delegates from Sarawak registered for the event.
The Convention will be officially opened by STAR President, Dr. Dripin Anak Sakoi, with a keynote policy speech to be delivered by Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, the Sabah Chairman. The Convention is also expected to be attended by the founder of STAR, Dr. Patau Rubis, other supreme council members as well as leaders of other parties in Sabah in particular the top leadership of USNO, SAPP and SPF whilst invitations have also been extended to the Pakatan Rakyat parties in Sabah.

ReplyDeleteWe'll see if it happens.
No unity and team work among the opposition parties also meaningless.
ReplyDeleteThat will give more advantage to BN.
Deletei agree..
DeleteThey have different agenda to achieve.
DeleteComponent should give 100% support striking for same agenda and mission.
DeleteIs STAR brings more hope to Sabahans??
ReplyDeleteyes...but false hopes..
DeleteHarapan kosong..angan-angan tinggi sahaja Star.
DeleteI don't think STAR in Sabah can give big impact to the politics.
ReplyDeleteStar is a rejected party from sarawak..
DeleteStar is getting popular in Sarawak.
DeleteSTAR still new, the people still lacking confidence on STAR.
DeleteThat also depends whether the people will put trust and support.
Deletesabah future rests on star alone.period.
ReplyDeleteTak mungkin, Star sendiri tidak mampu mendapatkan majoriti sokongan di Sabah. Pihak pembangkang tidak mungkin boleh berjaya tanpa kerajasama. Kali ini BN tetap menang.
DeleteSabahan still lives and suffering in the sickness of Kitingan Syndrome.. it's similar to bipolar disorder. Trust me I'm a doctor.
ReplyDeleteJangan undi Star yang tumbuh dekat2 PRU13. Kemampuan Star pun belum dapat diukur.
Deleterasanya laluan star masih sukar.
Deletememang sukar...impian Star untuk menjadi kerajaan mungkin akan terkubur pada pru13..
DeleteStar belum tentu mendapat sokongan dari rakyat Sabah.
DeleteSusah mahu percaya president Star Sabah.
ReplyDeletepresiden raja katak.
Deletesetakat ini sahaja isu yang anda boleh bawa untuk menentang STAR..??..isu begini tidak akan mudah untuk menghakis sentimen sokongan terhadap STAR....tolong cari isu yang lebih praktikal yang boleh menjatuhkan kebangkitan STAR, jangan harap isu katak saja, isu ini tidak lagi menjadi perhatian rakyat....
DeleteSTAR PASTI AKAN BUAT KEJUTAN!! KEJUTAN YNG PERNAH PBS BUAT PADA TAHUN 1985 MUNGKIN AKAN BERULANG!! PENGUNDI YNG BERUMUR 45 TAHUN KEBAWAH, KEBANYAKANNYA SANGAT BERMINAT PADA CERITA 7 AGENDA BORNEO INI. JIWA JUANG RAKYAT SABAHAN ADALAH SANGAT CENDRUNG KEPADA BORNEONISASI DI ERA INI. SIAPA PERNAH MENYANGKA BAHAWA BOM ATOM YANG HANYA SEBESAR DRUM TELAH HAMPIR MEMUSNAHKAN SELURUH HIROSHIMA!!!
Deletekejutan seperti PBS? jangan haraplah..kau lupa di sabah ada banyak parti pembangkang..Star terpaksa berdepan dengan PR dan SAPP selain dari BN...situasi politik sabah tidak sama seperti era 80an..
DeleteSehingga sekarang Star masih belum boleh bekerjasama dan bersatu dengan parti pembangkang yang lain di Sabah, mungkin lain kali sajalah kita boleh melihat 'kejutan'
DeleteTerpulang kepada rakyat sama ada STAR atau parti lain boleh dipercayai dan menaruh kepercayaan.
DeleteAdakah perjuangan Star untuk rakyat Sabah, atau ada agenda sendiri..
DeleteStar di sarawak ditolak oleh rakyat...Star sarawak tumpang populariti Star sabah..
ReplyDeleteSebelum Jeffrey Kitingan membawa masuk Star ke Sabah, Star Sarawak hanya parti minoriti sahaja.
Deleteya, star memang lemah di Sarawak.
DeleteSTAR may be shining in Sabah under Jeffrey?
DeleteStar tidak di terima di Sarawak.. parti yang tidak di terima di Sarawak.
DeleteBah ini kali lah...
ReplyDeleteTenang kwan-kawan yang penting kita orang borneo ore punya.
The State Reform Party (STAR) will hold its 1st national convention outside Sarawak when STAR Sabah hosts the 2012 National Convention on 06 September 2012 in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah
ReplyDeleteGood luck on that.

ReplyDeleteStar self proclaimed as the Kingmakers of Sabah and Sarawak, what gives them the idea that the people see them as the kingmakers? Does SAPP or PKR agree with this?
jangan mimpi la pembangkang2 Sabah.. lain la kalau semua pembangkang di Sabah boleh bersatu dibawah satu payung atau dalam kata lain mewujudkan satu pakatan atau gabungan baru..
ReplyDeletelajim mahu tubuh parti baru, makin susah untuk pembangkang bersatu.
DeleteLet wait and see whether lajim's new party can gain enough support?
DeleteJeffrey, Yong Teck Lee, Lajim dan peimpin2 dari Pakatan, masing2 mahu jadi KM Sabah.. ada harapan ka tu?
ReplyDeleteheadhunter ni membebel je banyak. Ada pegi hunt?
Deleteini lagi satu isu 'jadi KM'..tiada isu lain lagikah penyokong2 BN ni..??..kempis otak atau apa ni..??..orang sedang tinjau2 polisi yang dibawa oleh setiap parti, satu blogger disini cakap pasal jadi KM..??..hehehe...lawak...lawak..
Deletekalau semua pemimpin pembangkang mahu jadi KM susah juga itu..
DeleteItu juga rakyat yang akan menentukannya.
DeletePemimpin yang sua lompat parti adalah pemimpin yang tiada pendirian..tidak tau apa sebenar yang mereka perjuangkan.
DeleteSiapa yang ada masa boleh berkunjung dan datang ke convention itu.
ReplyDeletetapi star ni macam tidak mahu bekerjasama dengan PR.
ReplyDeletestar masih baru di Sabah dan kurang berjaya di Sarawak.
ReplyDeleteWalaupun pembangkang berpecahan, tetapi pasti satu saingan dan pertaruhan hebat di Sabah.
ReplyDeletePembangkang harus mencari jalan untuk kerjasama dan bertarung 1 dan 1 basis.
DeleteLet see how far STAR can go in Sabah.
