DAYAKBARU: NATIONAL PARTY VS STATE PARTY IS A CHOICE

In my opinion

“Minta ampun dulu auk laban rindu ka bekunsi penemu enggau bala ti di-basa ba ruai tu”

It’s true that BN at the National Level is led by UMNO (Malays & Multi-ethnic Muslims) supported by other racial party from Malaya such as MCA (championed by Chinese) and MIC (championed by Indian), and while other smaller BN component parties are championed by Chinese in Gerakan and Indian in PPP.

It’s also true that PR at the National Level is either championed by the Chinese in DAP, the Malays in PKR and the Malays in PAS.

Within the context “Islamic Democratic Country” it’s very unlike that a “Dayak” be appointed as the Prime Minister of Malaysia (unless he/she is a Muslim) as Malaysia is direct and/or indirectly ruled by Islamic Federal Monarchy (unless the Islamic Monarchy is abolished and if it happened then “chaos” could possibly erupted).

Notes: Mr Barrack Obama quote “I am a Christian by choice”.

Perception & Tactical Analysis:

If we were to study the breakdown of voters in each of the “31” Parliamentary seats as allocated by the SPR in Sarawak, the chances of PR to win majority seats in the coming General Election is still slim (including the study of Dayaks voting characteristics; “sinu”, “sayau”, “blind loyalty”, “hardcore loyalty”, “corrupt opportunist”, “helplessness mentality”, “crab mentality”, “prinsip enda nemu ulih-ili”, “prinsip auk-belauk”, “prinsip kalalu ngarap ka orang”, “money is more precious than vote” and the very much “divided ideologies”.

While the Malays/Melanaus are all PBB (BN) seasoned loyalists bundle with strong Islamic brotherhood (at least 10 to 11 seats are likely to be maintained by them; Limbang (P.221), Lawas(P.222), Sibuti (P.218), Mukah (P.213), Igan (P.207), Tg. Manis (P.206), Btg. Lupar (P.201), Btg. Sadong (P.200), Kota Samarahan (P.197), Petra Jaya (P.194) and Santubong (P.193). Total “11”

Base on the recent State Election results, Chinese (DAP) likely Parliamentary “Winning” areas; Miri (P219), Sibu (P212), Lanang (P211), Sarikei (P208), Stampin (P196), Bandar Kuching (P195). Total “6”

Dayak BN possible “Winning” areas; Hulu Rejang (P.216), Kapit (P. 215), Selangau (P.214), Bintulu (P.217), Kanowit (P.210), Julau (P.209), Saratok (P.205), Betong (P.204), Lubok Antu (P.203), Sri Aman (P.202), Mambong (P.198), Mas Gading (P.192). Total “12”

Other remaining seats mostly populated by Dayaks remain 50/50; Baram (P.220) and Serian (P.199). Total “2”

Even if PR managed to “Win” the majority seats are likely to be controlled by the Chinese (DAP) and if so then the chances for Dayak to become a Chief Minister in Sarawak is very unlikely, and shall remain “under command”. You can analyze how DAP structured their recent “Shadow Cabinets”; do you really think that Chinese are going to give up their powers and not controlling the finance and/or the economics?

It’s a very difference scenario for Selangor, Kedah and Kelantan where these states are majority populated by Malay Muslims, and how Penang is now ministered by Chinese (DAP). Will Penang become the new “Putrajaya”/ “Petrajaya” for Sarawak if DAP took control of Sarawak?

Notes: However let us all see predict the future within our own mindset on what is to be expected; “Don’t count the chickens before they hatch”

The "Independence" Dream

As I observed; there is no point arguing which political platform (national or state) that should advocate, promote and protect Dayaks rights and/or the Sarawak general interests.

“Independence” is the ultimate answer if Sarawakians want to be at par or better than Malaya. If Sarawak gets her “Independence”, she can have everything she would ever dream of. “Making Sarawak like Singapore or Hong Kong or Taiwan or Hawaii or whatever….”

And Dayaks will have more “says” since they are the majority citizens of the new State. “Independence” is a choice and it’s the reality!

We Make Choices Every Day

We make choices every day; each morning we make our own choice for breakfast. “Kolo Mee” or “Kampua Mee” or “Half-Boiled Eggs”….

When we don’t like the consequences of those choices, we’re faced with another choice that of changing direction, making a new choice and enjoying different consequences or staying stuck where we are.

Our willingness to change can be inspired by others but change itself is a personal choice. I personally believe it is ‘Choice’ not ‘Chance’ that determines your destiny.

We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are.

We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause.

Change is a door that can only be opened from the inside. If we failed to transform our inner self, we failed to change. We all have our choice(s), we can design our own world that we wish to live on.

As Shakespeare uniquely observed, ‘The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves’.

We created our circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today…. It is Your call – It is Your choice!

Notes:

My general analysis is only based on “Sarawak Political Scenario” not the general “Malaysia Political Perspective”.

My apology, it’s my opinion. Thank you.

CHANGE OR DO NOTHING, THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS YOURSELF TO MAKE!
