S’wak BN to keep state as BN’s ‘fixed deposit’

Datuk Wahab Dollah, the Member of Parliament of Igan in Sarawak said that the state’s BN (Barisan Nasional) is working to ensure that the state remains as the ‘fixed deposit’ of the BN Federal Government and that it remained so in the next state and general election. He said that the Sarawak BN is looking to maintain, if not better their tally of 29 parliamentary seats out of 31 and 62 out of 71 state seats they won in the last election.

He said “In the last general election (2008), the BN won fewer parliamentary seats in the peninsula, but Sarawak and Sabah made sure that the BN remained in power (at the federal level) despite the absence of a two-third majority in parliament. The Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB), a component of the Sarawak BN, had won 14 parliamentary seats in the 2008 general election, coming in third behind Umno and MCA in terms of the number of seats won. All BN MPs were expected to meet Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak on January 8 to discuss outstanding issues in their constituencies”

Dollah,fixed deposit in a crumbling bank managed by thieves and robbers is no safer than in one own biscuits tin bury in the back yard. Dont be so sure as evidenced from the way things are happening now on the ground. Gone are the days truth can be easily surprassed and people feel politics belong to the politicians. Now its the people`s power ,not you or anybody that calls the shot !!! Get it ?
