Before we leave this topic behind. Someone please explain to me why Sabahans and Sarawakians are NOT insulted by being called ‘Fixed Deposit’?

While the Federal Govt have provided funds to Sabah and Sarawak,. they have taken a big payout from oil and gas, timber, palm oil all along. Not to mention that without them, the BN govt would have toppled in the last election. Its likely given Sabah and Sarawak role, they are more like steady cash-cow that keeps on paying especially in the most crucial times.

Sabah and Sarawak is not a fixed deposit. Financially, they are more like the central bank that is there is bail them out when it really counts..

Not many Malays are listed in top 40 richest Malaysians List. Reasons;

1. Many super rich Malays don’t pay taxes since they need to hide their ill gotten wealth.

2. Many of the super rich Malays have already gone hidding overseas to avoid future criminal procecution.

These Sabah leaders, where have you all been all these years? Are you saying you fellows have just woke up from your long slumber? All these years, you fellows are just clever in fighting and killing each others to secure your own positions and perks. Sabahans’ interests? What interest, please stop talking cok. I say, let kick all these asses out for good. They are no difference from MCA, MIC, Gerakan and now Makkal Mati.

These same problems have been told again and again for ages by the same leaders. And these same leaders have been supporting BN all these years despite the Federal Government lackadaisical attitude towards Sabah and Sarawak.
Many of these problems could have been attended to or resolved had these leaders supported Pakatan.
These guys have sold Sabah for personal gain and now they crow.

You know what despite the billiions invested by UMNO for their selfish race out of the 40 richest malaysians 37 are non malays(2 indians and 35 chinese). What a joke, UMNO wasted their investements, imagine if they invested equally, they won’t be any malays on the list.LOL

Uncle Lim, with so much ammo provided by the BN government, it would be a waste if the PR don’t utilise them.

this is the secret “malaysian plan” in view with increasing the number of malays in the country to sustain continuous previlleged autonomous rule over the country and the expense of hardworking other races. “MUNTAH”

You stand corrected, there were many indonesians given permanent residence and bumiputra status to boost the number of malays in the country.

There are many illegal immigrants who have obtained Malaysian Identification cards through some ‘unknown channel’ which in fact made them a ‘ Bumiputra’ and have ‘more rights and priviliges’ than 6th genaration Malaysians of etnic-Chinese/Indians…. Just imagine that….. some malaysians have less right that the ullegal immigrants !

That is the Umno/Barisan Nasional government’s version of justice …..

and off course these illegal immigrant-made Bumiputra privileged/1st class citizens seems to be benefited UMNO in wresting the state government from PBS many years ago!

“….They then steal 20% or 2/3 for themselves…”

“Pairin also dwelt at some length on the increasing public complaints about the state of the roads, power blackouts, water shortages, the less than satisfactory penetration of telecommunication services, and the ‘appalling’ public healthcare system.

Kota Kinabalu, for example, is still without a general hospital. Needless to say, he pointed out, all these issues obviously provide political ammunition for the opposition in the forthcoming general election. ”

And of course all of these boleh di solved in one and the same sweep by jibby & gang during the next election campaign. Just promise. Yes deliver one huge election promise. The goods may come on donkey backs but that is not important. Promise can be made immediately and needless to say, it would be made instantly and even boldly. That is what that matters.

Jibby & gang may for all we know even carry out a prolonged PR campaign to sing the promise to sabahans and sarawakians. Kerismuddin may again hug a few teary eyed elderly sabahan women for purposes only he would deem noble. The hope (and in fact the design) is that a promise, if is was repeated often enough would actually appear to have been fulfiled. Silly mind games of this variety still has its appeal you know. Well at least umno still has great faith in such games.

Play on then will ya! Play on.

Since we are talking about broken promises here, I want to go back to the recent mis-annoucement by Najib of 9% GDP growth and US$17,000 per capita by 2020. Najib now retracts it to say its 6% which adds up to US$13,000 per capita not US$17,000.

My question is what happened to Mahathir’s promise of Vision 2020 of US$24,000 per capital?

This is the core of BN’s performnace. They say the will deliver 10, actually delivers 3 BUT they say they delivered 5 (depreciation of US$ over the next 10 years should add a bit back). And the 3 that is actually delivered, was not produced by them – they are just delivery men.

That is not the end of it!- They then steal 20% or 2/3 for themselves – for being deliverymen and unlike Fedex and DHL, they are never on time and the package is in bad shape..

Sabahan better understand the complicated math if they want to figure out what BN rule really mean..

Sabahans and Sarawakians want equal rights with UMNO applying unity through diversity…through each race takes care of his own…through divide they rule…and applying double standards?
Malaysian Chinese and Indians are not treated as equals to UMNO Malays…who are you minority races..want equal rights with UMNO Malays?
As long as UMNO is a Malay party…do not dream.
Maybe cornered and last resort to save their skins….may alter their party’s rules to accept non muslims as members.
Even then..these gang of robbers and thieves have too much in stake…and depend so much on Malay votes..now putting out slogans to attract young first time voters.
Politicians co-operating with UMNO from Sabah and Sarawak maybe corrupted and can be bought……but the ordinary people with voting power…..cannot be bought…and UMNO have shown too much hypocracies…too much double standards…and much cover ups…on multi billion RM corruptions…too cunning and too cruel…yes UMNO political supporters are feeling insecured….and there is nothing they can do…except to do the right thing…get out of BN..and join PR.
Failing which…as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow.come 13th GE….all will be voted out….unless UMNO can come out with hundreds of billions to buy voters..yet thousands cannot be bought…for they value dignity and their votes are priceless…just as their children and their love for the country.
