KUCHING: The recent statement by the State Barisan Nasional (BN) Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud last Tuesday on his willingness to step down if the rakyat wanted him to do so has caught many with surprise.
Although the subject of stepping down per se is not something new to Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud as he did in the past indicated that the day would come when he felt that he had to call it a day, it was the timing of his statement that has caused minor tremors in the country - the state election is just around the corner.
Many believe that Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud has started to realize that he is no longer enjoying strong supports from the rakyat of Sarawak.
They would quick to claim that the defeat of the BN candidate in the recent Sibu by-election shows that the people of Sarawak – not the people of Sibu – has rejected Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud.
And this defeat – which was caused by the people of Sibu and not the people of Sarawak – would cause a political tsunami in Sarawak; as what has happened in the last general election in peninsular.
This group of people would also point out that the recent revelation of the properties of Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud and his children in foreign countries has resulted in the people of Sarawak to be disgusted with the chief minister.
They also believe that the decision of the federal government to give RM20 million to the State Government for the purpose of carrying out a survey on the Native Customary Right (NCR) land clearly indicates the Prime Minister Mohd Najib Tun Razak doesn’t seem to favour Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud to continue leading the state.
They also believe that the long overdue rape cases involving Penan women has negative impacts on Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud - i.e. implying the chief minister does not care about the welfare of his own people despite of the fact that there are strong evidence that such incidents did take place.
The last straw is the demonstration in the Oxford University that took place when Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud came to the university to give his opening speech for the Global Islamic Branding and Marketing Forum.
Many would think that it is easy to make a good guess on who are these people but unfortunately they are wrong if they thought that Sebanaku Sarawak is referring to the oppositions.
Sebanaku Sarawak is actually refering to UMNO promoters or agents or plotters in Sarawak and Peninsular.
To-date, there are at least four group of UMNO promoters or agents or plotters who are active in Sarawak.
Two senior Sarawak BN politicians lead two of the groups while Affendi Jeman and a Bumiputera Datuk who is a businessman lead the other two.
The group led by Affendi Jeman does not worry the top leadership of Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) because the person who sponsored the group is no longer as powerful as before – i.e. the UMNO Youth Chief Khairy Jamaluddin who is the Rembau Member of Parliament (MP).But the other three groups do worry the PBB top leadership because they are in the position to help UMNO to spread its wings into the State.
And now they are already making their moves with UNMO Secretary General Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan bin Tengku Mansor, who is one of the two senior UMNO leaders who are actively pursuing the dream to spread UMNO's wings into Sarawak, firing the first shot towards Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud.

ReplyDeletePasal UMNO nak ke Sarawak, biarlah terima sebagai perkara biasa dalam sejarah politik Sarawak, dan jangan salah anggapan. Dan dengan adanya UMNO tidak akan mana mana orang politik yang ada berkuasa masa ini disingkir, malah mareka yang dalam jawatan aka terus berkuasa saperti biasa. Cuma pilihan raya lah satu satu innstitusi yang bolih merobahkan mana mana politikus yang ada dan tidak cara lain. Kita misti faham perkara ini. UMNO nak ke sarawak bukan perkara baru, ini telah lama pertm kali oleh PBB sendiri, kemudian lain lain orang. Banyak telah jadi mangsa sampai ada nya telah meninggal dunia (Arwah Pejuang Pembawa UMNO Ke sarawak) Jika sebaliknya UMNO tidak ke Sarawak, negeri kita ini mamsih juga bagini dibawah kuasa parintah yang ada itu sahaja. Ada berberapa pihak yang menutarakan keadaan tidak senang hati diatas kedatangan UMNO, tapi apa bolih buat, kita terpeksa terima UMNO sebagai Isteri kedua dan masam muka satu dua hari kemudian bik lah semuanya. Anggap bagitu shaja hal ini sasiapa nak jadi ketua kenalah kerja kuat dan ambil hati rakyat jelata dan bawa kemajuan dan seterusnya kpd negeri dan negara ini. Selamat berjaya.
ReplyDeleteAntara orng yang paling suka kedatangan UMNO ke Sarawak adalah Hj Suhaili bin Hj Hamid, Kpg Bako.Kuching. Beliau pernah pacakbendera besardihdapan rumahnya dahulu dan kali ini ia akan pasang banyuak bandera UMNO diatas kedatangannya.
ReplyDeleteBila UMNO ke Sarawak, sudah jadi carita lama dh basilah crita ini, cuba dulu masuk 20 tahun dahulu kita semua sudah tentu bersatu dan ramai kawan, dari kini ramai telah pun kena pingir, kena masuk icebox, kena buang pun ada. Tapi apa bolih buat kita semua kenalah buat kerja gumpul balik semua dan terus berjuang dan jangan main hantam ambil oleh sendiri sendiri saperti sidak yang sudah, apa jadi sik juga senang, merana jua ia orang.
ReplyDeleteKalaulah benar apa dikata, UMNO kedatangnya ke negeri sarwak memang dialualukan, kerana, denan adanya UMNO sudah tentu dapat menjamin kedudokkan orang Peri Bumi Sarawak dari terhakis akibat darasnya politik pembangunan yang diusahakan dan semua tanah Bumiputra dijadidkan tapak pembangunan dan kemudian dijual kpd mareka yang ada wang, mna satu pribumi yang mampu beli apa apa yang dibangunan oleh ppehak berkuasa masa kini, saperti contohnya, diSasa Jaya, kedai berpuluh dibina atas tanah NCR yang kemudian ditukar kpd Comercial, dan hari ini semua kedai tersebut dimilik oleh Cina, kerana Cina ada wang untuk beli, dan wng pempasan kpd Bumiputra tidak cukup untuk beli satengah kedai pun, jauh pangang dari api.Demikian juga contoh di Kuching, kedai dibina dikewasan tapak yang asalnya untuk membina kewasan sokan, dn kini sudah tukar jadi komercial, banyak kedai akan dibina dan tidak satu Bumi yang dapat pempasan mmampu beli satengah pun kedai kedai yang kini dibina oleh pihak Zecon. Dan demikian jugalah dilain lain tempat, maka dengan adanya UMNO maka semangat juang orng orang Bumi disarawak akan bertambah kuat dan asalkan semua usaha tidak makan saorng saorang, dan semengat berkajasama dan bahagi sama rata dan sama adil, akan membawa kemajuan untuk orang prang Bumiputra, disarawak.
