SEATS-WHY THE FUSS

Bahari Aship

The brawls between the two BN component parties- LDP and GERAKAN on who should have the rights on the three SAPP seats won by the three 'KATAKS, (pang, Tan and Au). Are you sure they are winnable candidates this coming 13th general election?

These are the kind of leaders we have in Sabah, counting chicken even before they are hatched. lnstead of 'turun padang' to solve the rakyat problems, they are more interested in solving their power problems, fighting among themselves for seats which they themselves are not sure of victory!

What the hell the fuss fighting for seats not belong to you but the rakyat. If the rakyat thinks that you are a useless leader, talk too much and do nothing, you think the rakyat will vote for you? If you think you are strong within the area why waste time tighting, 'Lawan lah' and let the best man win. And let the rakyat decide which of you are the best man?

Right now do not waste your time fighting for your unsure seats. ‘Turun padang lah, meet the people, solve their problems and at the same time ask them “kamu sokong saya kah?" Let see what they have got to say about it. General Election is just at the corner, so if you think you want to win, win the hearts of the rakyat first, do something concrete for them, may be they will consider voting for you. For now, do not waste you time squabbling and building castle in the air!

Requests for additional seats for personal gain – SAPP

KOTA KINABALU: The calls by political partes to increase the numberof parlimentary seats in Sabah are nothing but political agendas by frustrated politicians who gained nothing fore their ‘masters’.

Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) Grace Court Branch head Bahari Aship said increasing six or more seats meant the greedy would have the chance to parliament (MPs) and assemblymen and hoping to get ‘big fatpays’ followed by million ringgit projects.

“Increasing more seats meant more money to be spent through the taxpayers’ pockets. Even with the present numbers of MPs and assemblymen in Sabah, nothing positive has been achieved for the last 48 years after Merdeka, except Sabah being the ‘fixed deposit’.

“Yes, maybe it is important and necessary for the politicians to create more parliamentary and state seats for their benefit, but that will make the people suffer more. What exactly are the Sabah MPs doing in parliament?” he asked.

INCREASED PARLIAMENTARY SEATS?

The calls by political parties to increase parliamentary seats in Sabah are nothing but 'politicals agendas' by frustrated politicians who gain nothing from their masters! Increasing six or more seats mean the greedy lots will have the chances to becoming new MPs and Wakil Rakyats and hoping to get 'big fat pays' follow up by million ringgits projects. Are these people really thinking of the rakyat in Sabah?.

 

Increasing more political seats mean more money to be spent through tax payers' pockets. Even with the present numbers of MPs and Wakil Rakyats in Sabah, nothing positive have been achieved for the last 48 years after merdeka, except Sabah the 'Fixed Deposit' become the poorest country in Malaysia! What is there to be proud of?.

Yes, may be it is important and necessary to the politicians to create more parliamentary seats and state seats for their benefits, but that will make the poor rakyats more sufferings. What exactly the Sabah MPs do in Parliament? Apart from sleeping under their dark glasses, claiming allowances after the meetings, be a 'kerbau dicucuk hidung', what contribution do they voiced out to help Sabah and the rakyat to improve the deplorable situation? They are nothing but mere 'yes men' who dare not go against their Masters voice! 

 

Do not waste time and money lah. It is better for the present MPs and wakil rakyat to 'turun padang' and focus more on helping the poor rakyat. Do not just know how to talk big but produce nothing. As Sabahan please help the rakyat of Sabah. Do not make 'Reformasi Ekonomi' and the booming population (because of PTI) as excuses to increase political seats in Sabah. Enough is enough.
