I find the 陈时中 and 周玉蔻 saga lagi entertaining
The 高虹安 saga is pretty \"interesting\"
The standard of their politicians is so low that Singapore’s very own Roy Ngerng and Han Hui Hui would look very high standard over there. -

Yes, East Malaysia can be fairly uncertain. Unlike Peninsula Malaysia, both Sabah and Sarawak have very genuine 3rd party coalition / alliance in their state that can counter the PH and BN coalitions. As such, whichever coalition that the third party decides to partner with after the votes are cast (even PN), has a genuine chance of forming the next government.
The 3 are fighting to be the PM. The votes in eastern M are uncertain. The result is highly unpredictable. -
On a light note, World Cup will be starting ...

“The question of who GPS will support will be decided later. Wait until they contact me. So far no one has. They’re still counting over there, so we just wait,” he (East Malaysia coalition chief and Sarawak premier Abang Johari Openg) added when asked how soon the decision would be made. -
Who will be the PM for Malaysia?

Based on current result and outlook, very likely to be Muhyiddin.

I have my doubts that PH can persuade GPS (Sarawak) and GRS (Sabah) to join them… unless the new government promises to restore the full rights of the Sarawakians and Sabahans. While such an offer will make it difficult for both parties to reject, it will result in a promise that is nearly impossible to fulfill given that any coalition government is not going to garner more than 2/3 seats required to amend the constitution. -
My dh says may be M…I don’t read much abt them…but I hope A.

Maybe Sarawak and Sabah should seek leaving the Federation and Malaysia can go back to being Malaya.
While they are at it, Johor can do the same. :rotflmao:
Kelantan, Terengganu, Kedah and Perlis can think about forming a new Islamic federation.
And what is left can mull doing a Singapore Part II and expel Penang.
The whole place is spinning apart anyways. People in all these places 同床异梦.
Wait a minute... That looks strangely familiar... :siam:
On the plus side, Malaysia will now have 6 UN seats instead of just one. 7 if you count Singapore. :roll:
Or they can just carry on as per normal and everyone can continue griping while we in Singapore munch popcorn. :imanangel: -

In Borneo, a yearning to break free

In that last article, it is said \"it’s an opportune moment for Sabah and Sarawak to pile on the political pressure while the Perikatan Nasional-led government is at its weakest\". Even more true today. Sabah and Sarawak are able to make requests that neither PH nor PN can ignore because the new 'anti-hopping law' means Borneo are real kingmakers in every sense of the word. Secession is unlikely but both Sabah and Sarawak will definitely have more autonomy in the Constitution as envisaged in the 1963 Malaysia Agreement.
