Exit of Bumburing, Lajim have impact on fence-sitters – SAPP
TAWAU August 3, 2012: Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) president Datuk Seri Panglima Yong Teck Lee sees an impact from the exit of two Barisan Nasional members of parliament, especially in Sabah.
“Overall, the impact will be on the fence-sitters,” he said yesterday, adding he does not foresee a domino effect with other elected representatives following suit.
He said in the case of Datuk Seri Panglima Lajim Ukin, it would affect the division heads and supreme councillors of the party in Lajim’s area as he is the community leader for the Bisaya.
“Members at divisional level, I foresee will leave BN openly or quitting. After dissolution even more will leave openly, however, I don’t see a domino affect among YBs,” he said.
In the case of Datuk Seri Panglima Wilfred Bumburing, Yong said the impact would be on the KadazanDusunMurut (KDM) community.
“If we consider all this, it is obvious their departure will have some impact, especially on their areas concerned,” he said.
Yong said the issue given for leaving their parties though not similar, nevertheless endorsed what other opposition parties like SAPP have been saying for a long time.
“In terms of voters’ perception and issue, it shows that opposition parties like SAPP have been on the right track,” he said.
Tidak ada apa-apa yang menarik dengan mereka berdua ini. Mereka keluar parti lagi bagus sekurangnya tidak memberikan beban kepada parti BN Sabah.
BalasPadamlepas ni, mana2 parti yang menerima mereka akan rasa terbeban kerana terpaksa menjaga katak2 ini yang amat dahagakan jawatan2 yang lebih tinggi..
PadamSebaik Lajim berdua keluar dari parti, ada antara ahli parti mengatakan bahawa tindakan beliau telah melegakan ahli2 yang lain dan juga parti.
BalasPadamdaripada mereka menjejaskan parti baik juga mereka keluar.
Padamsudah tentu BN akan berasa aman selepas ini kerana tidak ada lagi duri dalam daging atau gunting dalam lipatan.. sebelum ini Lajim kerap memburuk2kan BN ketika beliau masih bersama2 BN..
Padamsekarang ini BN Sabah dilihat tetap stabil dan mendapat sokongan.
BalasPadamWalaubagaimanapun, BN tetap kuat, cuma sekuat mana sebab pembangkang juga mantap.
Padamlebih2 lagi selepas Najib mengumumkan RCI dan menubuhkan jawatankuasa untuk menyemak semula royalti minyak..
PadamLajim dan Bumbering akan membawa sokongan mereka ke parti lain.
BalasPadamitulah rancangan utama Anwar.. beliau gagal menarik sokongan rakyat Sabah, maka terpaksalah beliau bergantung dengan sokongan sedia ada pemimpin2 BN yang melompat keluar..
PadamMereka sudah berlainan agenda, tidak hairan nak keluar parti. Harus menghormati keputusan mereka dan mengharapkan mereka masih berkhidmat baik untuk rakyat di Sabah.
BalasPadamitulah yang merisaukan tu.. sejak bila agenda mereka berlainan? kenapa perlu berindak ketika PRU13 semakin hampir? atau mungkin mereka mempunyai agenda peribadi?
PadamKami menantikan berapa banyak kerusi yang BN dapat menangi di PRU akan datang.
BalasPadamsaya nantikan mana kawasan yang bakal ditandingi oleh si Lajim nanti..
PadamSejauh mana Lajim dan Bumbering akan membawa kesan selepas kelaur dari BN. PRu13 akan terjawab.
BalasPadamkalau tanya dengan saya sejauhmana, jawapan saya sangat jauh.. hinggakan tidak nampak langsung kesannya kepada BN..
Padamsedarkah Yong Teck Lee? sedangkan SAPP keluar dari BN pun, tidak ada impak langsung terhadap BN.. inikan pula beberapa pemimpin2 yang boleh diragui perjuangannya?
BalasPadambaik SAPP fokuskan saja la parti beliau yang semakin tersepit dikalangan parti2 pembangkang di Sabah.. saya tengok, SAPP yang semakin terjejas selepas kehadiran STAR di negeri ini..
BalasPadamsaya yakin majoriti rakyat Sabah sama seperti saya meragui tindakan Lajim dan beberapa pemimpin2 BN yang keluar meninggalkan BN.. kenapa bertindak ketika pilihanraya semakin hampir?
BalasPadamSabah BN liaison chief Datuk Seri Musa Aman said any leader holding whatever post should withdraw if he no longer has confidence in the party and government he represents.
BalasPadamThe Sabah Chief Minister said such leaders should withdraw voluntarily and respectfully without the need for their posts to be taken away from them.In the party and government, There are rules and ethics.
BalasPadamIf a leader, minister or deputy minister no longer has confidence in the party leadership or the government he represents, then he should graciously withdraw.
BalasPadamMusa's comments came following a statement issued by the Prime Minister's Department today that Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah had consented to the revocation of the appointment of Datuk Lajim Ukin as housing and local government deputy minister with immediate effect.
BalasPadamMusa who is also Sabah BN chairman, advised all Umno and BN leaders in the state not to follow Lajim's action or waste time on this issue as what was more important was for them to work harder to improve the lot of the people.
BalasPadamHe said Umno and BN leaders needed to strengthen unity and cooperation among them and continue to strive for the good of the people as the BN government today was upholding the trust and mandate given to it by the people.
BalasPadamMusa stated that there is no need to worry or be rattled as our nation have the best government, the best leaders as well as the best track record.
BalasPadamWith this new development, Musa reminded all Umno and BN leaders in Sabah to place importance on sincerity to the government, party and the top leadership and not on self-interest because only through the former, the people and nation would continue to prosper.
BalasPadamMusa said Malaysia today was on a good track under the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak who was always thinking and concerned about how to solve problems and assist the people.BN leadership is different from the opposition's haphazard leadership.
BalasPadamThey pretend to be blind and deaf to the changes and development taking place in Sabah, but the people know what is good and bad for them.
BalasPadamMusa said some of the local opposition leaders and from outside the state were at one time in the government and holding good posts. "But what have they done for the people?" he added.
