Kota Kinabalu: Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) welcomes Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim's land mark statement that Pakatan can negotiate with SAPP and SAPP need not join the Pakatan Rakyat in achieving a one to one fight against the BN.
As de facto leader of PKR and PR, Anwar has re-set the button on the relationship between SAPP and Pakatan to the same positive footing that SAPP had with Pakatan in 2008.
As de facto leader of PKR and PR, Anwar has re-set the button on the relationship between SAPP and Pakatan to the same positive footing that SAPP had with Pakatan in 2008.
On the policy framework, SAPP has been supportive of the national opposition agenda for change, clean elections, an independent judiciary and an efficient economy. In fact, SAPP's two MPs at the parliamentary level, Datuk Eric Majimbun and Datuk Chua Soon Bui, have been consistent on this matter.
Further, SAPP's 8 point declaration in June 2008 stated that the government shall be of the people based on good governance and civil society and non-racial politics based on a progressive, just and harmonious society.
At the same time, we also fight for Sabah autonomy, 20% oil royalties, return of Labuan, review of unfair federal laws in Sabah, Borneonisation of the civil service, solution to the illegal immigrants issue and redressing the socio-economic imbalances affecting Sabah.

Kita mengharapkan agar perbincangan kerjasama ini dapat menghasilkan sesuatu keputusan yg baik demi mencapai matlamat pembangkang utk menumbangkan BN pada PRU13.
ReplyDeleteTanpa kerjasama yg erat dikalangan gagasan pembangkang pasti matlamat yg diburu tak akan kesampaian dan akhirnya BN juga akan kembali berkuasa selepas PRU13.
Untuk menjayakan misi dan visi gagasan pembangkang melalui perundingan ini, semua pihak dlm pembangkang harus mengelakkan diri daripada membuat sebarang "Press statement" tanpa kebenaran urusetia pusat jawatankuasa perundingan.
Adalah kerana statement yg bukan dikeluarkan pihak yg diberikuasa di bimbangi ianya akan menghancurkan lunas lunas permuafakatan tersebut.
Harap jangan gagal lagi!
Pakatan's political direction is to challenge and replace BN. They have to think of a win-win situation. Sabah is only one state among the 13 states. Pakatan already control 4 states and may be 2 more to come in Peninsular Malaysia.
ReplyDeleteGive Sabah based party some room, some role just the same way Sabah being "invited" to form Malaysia.
It will be better for the country if BN had been fair to Sabah and, if Pakatan willing to be fair to Sabah.
Everytime SAPP mentioned they wanted to work together with PR, but it always does not work out. Will this time be any different.
ReplyDeleteBetter just wait and see how the two of them will negotiate about this.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for GE 13th! It will be a tough competition this time.
ReplyDeleteIf only PR sincerely to be fair, and if PR co-operate with SAPP, BN will face a tough competitor.
ReplyDeletekita lihat adakah mereka benar2 boleh bekerjasama.
ReplyDeletesemoga kerjasama yang dirancang oleh SAPP dan PR dapat direalisasikan. selamat berjuang pada PRU-13 nanti.
ReplyDeletePR can win without SAPP but SAPP needs the support of PR to win.So SAPP should not be big-headed.You need PR to have a chance of winning.
ReplyDeletejangan terlalu bergantung dengan PR, hati mereka belum tahu sejauh mana ikhlas support SAPP.
ReplyDeletevery good approach, but i don't think this cooperation will going smoothly as planned especially during the general election..
ReplyDeleteWho are the malay candidates in SAPP? The rotten eggs who could not find any place in UMNO.
ReplyDeleteCorrection, Sapp malay candidates are the most suitable ones. Why? They support the harmonious inter-racial and religious tolerance in Sabah, not like Umno's.
ReplyDeleteIn Sabah, PR needs the support of SAPP to win. They need each other to counter BN. If not, PR can say goodbye to Malaysia for the next GE.
ReplyDeletetunggu dan lihat saja apa hasilnya nanti sama ada PR dan Sapp akan bekerjasama atau tidak.
ReplyDeleteWe'll see how the two parties will cooperate in this matter.
ReplyDeleteTerpulanglah kepada SAPP. Tapi jika diteruskan sudah pasti SAPP akan banyak hilang kerusi ditandingi pada PRU13 nanti. Kerana terpaksa memberikan peluang kepada PR lain untuk bertanding.
ReplyDeleteSAPP suka "Tea Table Talk" like tactic dulu with Pak Lah bah!
ReplyDeleteMarilah kita semua bersatu padu undi SAPP jadi kerajaan Sabah untuk menghalau semua parti import dari malaya keluar dari Sabah dalam PRU13. Mereka hanya mahu merampas hasil bumi Sabah dengan bantuan pengkhianat dari Sabah, bukan ikhlas mahu perjuang untuk sabah otonomi.
ReplyDeleteOrang Sabah hari ini bukan palui macam dulu. Kita tahu bagaimana nak mentadbir negeri sendiri dan tak payah lah orang dari seberang sibuk di Sabah terutama UMNO dan dap yang jahanam!
As i said before, this alliance will never going to work if the leaders from both party failed to address their supporters at the grassroot level to stop arguing with each other!
ReplyDeletethe example is the comments by SAPP supporters above my comments...see how the commentators address DAP as "jahanam"?
kita tunggu dan lihat PRU13 ne...!! suruh PBS keluar BN....
