Has the Dust settled? PM Anwar Ibrahim’s presence to provide an ” advice ” to the legitimate CM, in the power grab that was almost crippled by unscrupulous politicians, will remain a stigma and remembered by Sabahans when the next state elections is called.
Some analysis, depending on which side of the corridor, you’re hearing will tell you, all is well, the mind boggling issue here is, if PM Anwar Ibrahim has given his Blessings, then the next astonishing matter remains questionable is, why the need in giving space to the CM to discuss and find a formula for the benefit of Sabah, doesn’t this amount to a conditional blessing?
If 44 Sabah Elected Assemblymen had decided to pledged their support for the GRS CM, it’s obvious that the political maturity of these Assemblymen in ensuring matters concerning the state is being decided by them, KUDOS TO THEM, unlike certain individuals who proclaimed AUTONOMY, yet goes running to their National Leaders for comfort and rescue mission – akin to a cry baby.
On the matter suggested by Bung Moktar and Shafie Apdal, in ” demanding ” for an Establishment and Formation for a ” UNITY GOVERNMENT “, with their intentions of obviously being included, doesn’t deserve any COURTESY.
Sabahans are now more then UNITED, in knowing that the leadership is intact, and the newly appointed members of the Cabinet will ensure a strong and stable government, God Willing.
For most Sabahans, the coup orchestrated by Bung Moktar and Shafie Apdal, is UNFORGIVABLE. It’s CHECKMATE, and you’ve lost the GAME.
