'A picture tells a thousand words'and from the pictures above I can see how 'loose' the opposition supporters are.In one picture you can even see 'the three stooges'either guarding the leaders or they were just standing there planning or thinking on what 'scams' they wanted to pull.In another picture you can see like Melanie singing her heart's out in a karaoke session.Not forgetting too the 'banzai' yell on the top picture.They sure were having some good time.
ReplyDeleteChristine must be bored listening to Melanie's voice.I hope its not 'chan mali chan' song.
ReplyDeleteChristine was singing "UMNO terus maju"...haha
DeleteSeems like she has fallen asleep, must be the melodious lullaby Melanie Chia is singing.
DeleteIs a shame for SAPP n STAR demanded PR to let them field two third of state seat or else each will freely field their candidates which will votes splitting. You think both you old fox represent the majority of opposition votes in Sabah? By you doing so you are leaving voters who would like to vote PR voting you. Shame on you it only show how selfish n greedy the two of you. If you guys are sincere being in opposition then join the PR pact then only talk about seat allocation.
ReplyDeleteAgree, SAPP n STAR only sing SABAH FOR SABAHAN & GREATER AUTONOMY. The care nothing else. How shallow their agenda are. PR have been fighting BN & opened many can of worms in BN. What SAPP & STAR did? Even Amangate issue also need to be brought up by Sarawak opposition?
DeleteLocal parties like SAPP and STAR should be given the chance to contest most of the state seats if not all to safeguard our Sabahans autonomy and rid of federal colonialism. PR should get their hands off our state seats and concentrate on parliament seats. wake up!
ReplyDeleteTechnically how would increase SAPP n STAR local rep could safe guard Sabahan rights ? Even if PR were to field more state seat, the candidates will still be Sabahan mostly!!! Don't forget STAR JK are known to be a big frog. Federal - state relationship is a worldwide n accepted admin style, it does not neccessary mean a colonial relationship. You need to read more on this. It was BN and our past n preslocator riot local politicians such as Yong, Jeffery, Pairin & musa that made it like that for power and greed. Having said that PR is not necessary like that. Look at Penang n selangor for example of good governance. You not only need to wise up you need to get rid of your territorial and short sighted mindset!!!
DeleteSTAR wants to contest 60 seats. Before this SAPP has the same intention. Where got "satu hati" among them.
DeletePwmbangkang sendiri pun tidak boleh satu hati, macam mau memimpin Sabah.lebih baik lupakan sahaja.
DeleteKita tengoklah sejauh mana sambutan Bersih 3.0 di Sabah. Rakyat Sabah tidaklah sefanatik macam di Malaya.
ReplyDeleteBukan budaya Sabah untuk mengikuti demonstrasi.
DeleteRakyat sabah tidak berminat dengan demonstasi seperti ini, buang masa sahaja.
DeleteBersih3.0 ini pasti tidak akan mendapat sambutan, boleh tinguk sudah dari gambar di atas.penyokongnya boleh dikira.
DeleteDemonstrasi untuk PRU yang bersih dan adil harus diberi sokongan. Yang penting, dijalankan dengan tenang.
ReplyDeletePastikan keselamatan rakyat terjamin selamat, jangan ada sebarang masalah besar berlaku.
DeleteDemi PRU yang bersih dan adil, SPR harus membaiki kelemahan yang dikesan untuk meningkat keyakinan sistem PRU Malaysia.
ReplyDeletespr sememangnnya harus sentiasa berusaha untuk meningkatkan kualiti perkhidmatan mereka dari masa ke masa.
DeleteKeselamatan dan ketenteraman harus diutamakan. Yang penting sampai message yang perlu disampaikan.
ReplyDeleteSetuju, sebab banyak demontrasi tidak tahu tujuan dan cuma berhimpun dan hulu hara sahaja. Semoga kali ini, tujuan tercapai dan isyarat dapat sampai ke pihak yang berkuasa.
Deletesetuju Asyraf, ketenteraman awam haruslah menjadi keutamaan.
Deletebanyak lagi perlu diusahakan terutama projek ic, undian hantu, calon yang tidak tahu latar belakang dll. Semua ini harus diselesaikan.
ReplyDeleteKami menanti perkembangan sama ada bersih mendapat sambutan.
ReplyDeletepastikan keselamatan di utamakan, rasanya perhimpunan ini hanya buang masa ja.
ReplyDeletePerhimpunan tu kalau mahu juga, pihak penganjur perlu la menjamin bahwa perhimpunan tu benar2 aman.
Deletesebaiknya tak perlulah sertai perhimpunan tersebut.
DeleteYang penting tujuan perhimpunan tersebut mencapai matlamatnya.
ReplyDeleteBerkemungkinan bersih 3.0 ini mendapat sambutan sebab semua mengharapkan perubahan and kemajuan.
ReplyDeletetunggu dan lihat sajalah sama ada mereka ini mendapat sambutan atau tidak.
DeleteUMNO harus membaiki kelemahan, jika tidak, pasti mendatangkan kesan amat negatif terutama PRU13 akan datang.
ReplyDeleteUntuk menjamin PRu yang lebih adil dan bersih, sistem PRu harus diperbaiki lagi.
ReplyDeletetidak juga boleh terbang tinggi SAPP
ReplyDeletenampak macam lebih banyak parti lain yang lebih berpengaruh daripada Sapp.
Deletetengok itu gambar tidak juga ramai pun.
ReplyDeleteKita mahu SPR mencari dan memastikan PRU akan datang dapat dilaksanakan dengan baik dan bersih dalam pengurusannya.
