SAPP leaders after the announcement at the press conference.During this moment of time,when the Pak Lah's administration is being rocked by unrest and disputes across the nation,from inside UMNO to the angry rakyat,and now he's being bombarded by one of it's BN counterpart,launching a fatal attack to force him to step down.This is a serious blow to Pak Lah,being haven't recovered from the disasterous election result and internal UMNO problems,so what's next for Pak Lah?
Pak Lah being checkmated.There's no point of return for SAPP now,as SAPP is launching the attack straight towards Pak Lah,there's just two choices left - either Pak Lah is voted no-confidence in the Parliament and resign,or SAPP will have their ass kicked out from BN.
SAPP being the first party to react to the hoo-hah's of Anwar Ibrahim,had again proved that it's not simply a rumour that Pakatan Rakyat may form the next federal government before Hari Malaysia.Anwar kept saying he got the numbers of MPs who wanted to crossover,he would need at least 30 to do so.But,SAPP only have 2 MPs,people would ask - "Can this plan work out?" Well,I guess its not impossible.
President of SAPP,Yong Teck Lee,former chief minister of Sabah and also the mastermind of previous crossovers.Please bear in mind,Yong Teck Lee was one of the leader of Sabah Unity Party(PBS) who planned the 1990 crossover where we saw PBS came out from BN and ruled Sabah in that year's election.And,also he was also the mastermind who crushed PBS in 1994 by organizing crossover of PBS stateassemblyman to BN and eventually helped BN to retain the power till now,in cooperation with the then Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.And from those previous record,it's not possible for Yong to work things out once again with the same person,Anwar Ibrahim.He did it before,and I think he may have the ability to do it again.We shall see that.
And I believe things might even progress faster than we have thought.There might be a second political tsunami striking Malaysia soon after 8th of March.As it was reported,while Pak Lah was in Kota Kinabalu to do some "last minute rescue"(apparently it failed) with the state BN leaders and MPs,some of the important MPs were no where to be seen such as the Kimanis MP Anifah Aman and Kalabakan MP Abdul Ghapur Salleh.Both of them were the candidates who rejected Pak Lah's administration to hold the post of deputy ministers.And Yong Teck Lee was on the absent list too.This is something interesting...
DAP being held and it's strength being limited by planned?But at the same time,while Parti Keadilan Rakyat(PKR) was in joy and welcome SAPP's decision,Democratic Action Party(DAP) seemed not so happy about something.The exit and joining of some Sabah BN component party into Pakatan Rakyat would weaken their position in Sabah.And this would threaten DAP's progress in Sabah to emerge as a strong party and expand their political map.Quiting BN and joining Pakatan Rakyat might be a "one stone killing two bird" plan by SAPP to maintain their political position in Sabah(to hold on DAP's strength) and at the same time doing something for the sake of Sabahans and Malaysian(changing the federal governemnt).Well,why not?
Well,back to reality,whether will the no-confidence motion will be accepted by the Speaker of Parliament,this is still a question to be answered.Who will table the motion and how much no-confidence votes will be voted? And will other Sabah political parties such as PBS,LDP and UPKO etc follow the steps of SAPP to quit BN?
Insider told me that Khairy was flying to Sabah as well,trying to solve the problem for his father in law.And at the same time,Anwar will be in Sabah in the weekend to give some keynote speech or perhaps announcement?
What's next?
