Time for Sabah voters to ponder
Amde Sidik (Feb 24, 2010)
 Interesting, of lately,
internet media reported that the current Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Musa
Hj Aman has only till March to sit in his office at Innoprise Building at
Teluk Likas, Kota Kinabalu as Chief Minister of Sabah. He is soon to be
replaced by Datuk Shafie Apdal, currently a Federal Minister for Rural and
Regional Development, who is also an MP for Semporna.
How reliable is this media yet to be seen? I'm pretty sure Musa Aman will
use whatever resouces available at his disposal to avoid this embarrassing
moment. If money can buy for him that would be no problem but if something
else beside money than it must be to do with brain. And this is a war
against Prime Minister. Musa Aman isn't a fighter of this nature, he
reached the top post was but by wriggling. He is a 'tai chi' kind he uses
others' forces for his strength. Person to person on round table isn't his
game.
If this changing of Chief Minister does take place, it isn't just abrupt.
But there is going to be a big problem for Sabah to stay put as a
Malaysian State. That this is no less arbitrary decision than what Dr
Mahathir did in 1994-2003 when he introduced the rotation of Chief
Ministers of Sabah.
It's pure simplicity, no harder than plucking a wild flower by the
roadside. If it happens now it could happen any time in the future.
Whether Sabahans like it or not that surely be worth exploring whether
this is the kind of arrangement Sabahans would like for their next
generation to have.
Political stability is therefore fluid.
People, who currently in power will have no qualm, some don't even care to
notice so long as their positions are not in jeopardy, unlike those in the
opposition. Who cares more about the State?
It means Datuk Shafie Apdal has to be nominated as ADUN in order to be
eligible to hold CM post or else it's a by-election. I don't have many
views on this. Datuk Shafie Apdal may be comfortable in winning a
by-election in Semporna but elsewhere in State, he may have to work very
hard to win believe me!
What say you folks?
