KEMABONG: DAP advisor Lim Kit Siang said if Sabah and Sarawak followed the political tsunami in 2008, Malaysia will have been governed by the Pakatan Rakyat now.
Speaking at the Kampung Kalibatang Lama about 40km from here, Lim believed that the participation of many people in the interior with the opposition showed that it is gaining momentum and prepared to give the Barisan Nasional (BN) a run for their money.
He said during the formation of Malaysia in 1963, Sabah was the richest state in the country but now it was being labeled as the poorest.
“That is why we want to take out the present government. We want the people power to clean them up,” he said.
Kemabong DAP chief, Willam @ Ensor Datuk Tingkalor expressed confidence with DAP chance here because within months it spread its wing here it had already registered 1,488 members.
Also on hand were Segambut MP, Lim Lip Eng, Sri Tanjung Assemblyman, Jimmy Wong, Sabah DAP secretary Dr Edwin Bosi and DAP interior leaders, Dr Benjamin Yapp and Donny Entong.
