Is Salleh Said Keruak eyeing a comeback as Sabah CM?

Salleh Said Keruak, the son of former Sabah Chief Minister Tun Mohd Said Keruak, is certainly up to something judging from the way he talks and moves in recent weeks.

Salleh was the 9th Chief Minister of Sabah between 1994 and 1996, and had to vacate his post to Yong Teck Lee under the CM rotation system.

The 56-year-old Salleh is currently the Speaker of the State Legislative Assembly and Sabah Umno liaison deputy chairman.

In a critical time when he is supposed to help strengthen and solidify his party, especially with the looming polls, Salleh’s actions is seen by many as going on the contrary.

First, Salleh suggested that CM Musa Aman should contest the Vice-President’s post knowing very well that incumbent VP Shafie Apdal is going to defend his post.

This is because Shafie first announced his decision on July 21.

Knowing very well that Shafie is going for the candidacy, Salleh tried to cajole Musa into the ring by openly voicing his support for Musa on Aug 3.

Not only that, Salleh was alleged to have mobilized several divisions to voice their open support for Musa in a hope that Musa might get into the fray.

Salleh was reported to have said: "Musa is a committed party worker and delivers what he promises unlike some leaders who just play politics and create his own grouping”.

Then when Musa dropped a bomb by refusing to contest the VP’s post, let alone defend his supreme council post, Salleh was caught off guard because Musa did not even disclose his decision to Salleh.

Now that Musa was out of the race, Salleh should have, as a good leader, rallied behind Shafie, especially when Shafie had supported him many times in the past.

But Salleh had this to day: “There is no quota for any leader or state for the posts of vice-president and supreme council members in the coming party election.

In other words, Salleh’s words can be interpreted as telling candidates that there is no incentive to vote for Shafie.

In fact, Salleh's actions can be seen as contradicting Musa who had this to say: "View the election as a family matter”.

Many of Sabah Umno members are now asking this question – What is Salleh up to?

Since Musa is not going to contest in the elections, why not support Shafie and get the entire state party machinery to throw their support for the Rural and Regional Development Minister.

Or is there a hidden agenda?

And since a few strong indicators point that this is Musa’s last term as CM, is Salleh eyeing the state’s top post?

After all, he did not get to enjoy a prolonged stint in 1994-1996 due to the rotation system that cut short his tenure as CM.

So, is this comeback time for Salleh?

  2. ini bukan kali pertama salleh menyokong musa dalam apa jua perkara.. sebelum pru13 juga salleh telah banyak buat kenyataan yang pro kepada kepimpinan musa.. kenapa baru hari ini sokongan salleh itu disifatkan ada agenda tersembunyi?

  3. jika salleh mahu menjatuhkan musa, ada banyak cara yang lebih halus boleh digunakan selain membuat sokongan sebegitu.. jika sokongan sebegitu disifatkan sebagai ada agenda tersembunyi, bagaimana pula dengan sokongan pemimpin Pakatan terhadap Anwar??

    1. Azmin paling gemar mengipas buntut Anwar yang sentiasa berpeluh.. tapi tidak ada pula cakap2 bahawa Azmin mahu merampas jawatan Anwar sekaligus merampas jawatan Perdana Menteri (jika Pakatan memerintah)..

    2. Jadi itu pun ada niat tersembunyila tu..memang pembangkang sentiasa berfikiran negatif terhadap setiap tindakan pemimpin BN.

  4. tidak perlulah bising2 pasal isu yang sudah berlalu.. lagipun musa sudah jelaskan bahawa beliau tidak akan bertanding jawatan timbalan presiden umno.. kalaupun salleh mempunyai agenda, semuanya sudah hancur berkecai selepas musa buat kenyataan itu..

    1. Salleh sendiri memuji pencapaian Musa sepanjang mengetuai pentadbiran negeri ini.. jesteru bagaimana timbulnya soal merampas jawatan sedangkan salleh sendiri mengagumi kepimpinan Musa?

  5. bagi saya tidak ada yang luar biasa mengenai sokongan salleh terhadap musa.. mana2 pemimpin umno sabah juga menyokong penuh kepimpinan musa.. berdasarkan reputasi musa, memang layaklah beliau mendapat sokongan luar biasa dikalangan pemimpin2nya..

    Replies
    1. istilah luarbiasa itu hanya wujud dimata pemimpin dan penyokong2 pembangkang.. mereka memang tidak senang bila ahli umno saling menyuarakan sokongan antara satu sama lain.. memang pun niat pembangkang sejak dulu cuba berusaha memecahkan perpaduan dalam umno..

    2. maklumlah dalam pembangkang tu mana ada sokongan satu sama lain.yang ada cuma pertengkaran dan huru hara akibat tidak sehaluan.

    3. Jadi kalau yang lain2 sukung Musa, kanapa tidak dipersoalkan?

  6. mungkinkah wujud pihak yang cuba melaga2kan salleh dan musa?? sebelum ini pun telah beberapa kali keluar artikel yang mempersoalkan sokongan salleh terhadap musa.. seoalah2 ianya sesuatu yang pelik sedangkan perkara seumpama itu sentiasa berlaku dalam mana2 parti politik..

    1. kesimpulannya, jika umno yang buat semuanya salah, tapi bila pembangkang yang buat semuanya betul.. malah meliwat, melanggan pelacur, merompak, memfitnah dsbnya, adalah betul jika pembangkang yang buat..

    2. tidak mustahil sebab Salleh dan Musa kedua2nya pemimpin yang sangat disegani atas usaha2 pembangunan dan kepimpinan.

  14. Musa has already made his choice and he knows what seems best so i dont think there is any need for someone to try and convince him in any way

    ReplyDelete
  15. i guess Salleh himself has seen the great things Musa has contributed to the growth of the state so he is convinced that he can do more and better

    ReplyDelete
  16. i can as well say that there is nothing wrong if any one supports Musa in any way based on his good records

  19. Musa has done a great job as the Chief Minister os Sabah so he deserves everyone's support

  20. the oppositions can also see with their eyes all what Musa has contributed to the state except if they are blind as well

    ReplyDelete
  21. why is Musa always the subject, i guess they are helping him to promote his name because he really worked for it with all of his heart by working for the interest of the people

    ReplyDelete
  22. we all just wish that Musa can continue the good work he has already started

    ReplyDelete
  23. Salleh would have no other option than to admit that Musa has done well

  24. just that the rest has to be done by others because there is always a time for everything

  25. Musa has done his best and we all appreciate his efforts
