Hang on there, better deals are on the way

Sarawakians don’t have to agree with state PH chairman Chong Chieng Jen who appears pissed off because the GPS people are not listening to him. He called their apparent hesitation in support of the amendment Bill as “utter disservice to Sarawak” and accused them of playing politics and giving excuses.

Game over for the termites of Sarawak politics

Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari’s ‘termite’ statement has had so many Sarawakians excited. Since that speech in Marudi, numerous comments and views have come forth, and as always, mostly in the social media. Many are of the opinion that the ‘termites’ refer to Parti Sarawak Bersatu (PSB) while not

A weakened PRS or SUPP or PDP is of no help

So PSB is a “true” multi-racial party, therefore will fight for all the races in Sarawak and make sure that no race is left out. Those guys who have just joined PSB did so because PSB is a “true” multi-racial party where they will champion the cause of the races

Sarawakians need a jab of Camerons bug

Pakatan Harapan (PH) is reeling because of its Cameron Highlands by-election defeat. Now the leaders are worried if this will be repeated in the next by-election – Semenyih – on March 2. In Cameron Highlands, PH won the Chinese and Indians over but lost almost the entire Malay votes. Their

No predicting a man who defies common sense

Sometime in the middle of December, PKR’s Rafizi Ramli, who heads PKR-linked pollster Invoke Malaysia, was reported as having said: “I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but someone must bell the cat.” Of course, when someone bells a cat in English it means he is doing a

GPS will determine Sarawak’s future

Someone in Sabah said Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal’s Warisan is a “one-off party” made up of “frustrated people”, and therefore, should be dissolved. He thinks PPBM must come in and save Sabah from Warisan kind of politics of being unable to satisfy members, supporters and allies, including the Kadazan Dusun

History didn’t favour us; it’s now or never

Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) will be officially launched on Jan 19. Quite naturally, many eyes will be trained on the event to see what actually will happen – beyond just unveiling the coalition’s logo today, of course. You can bet the GPS people are excited about the whole thing because
