THE STATE Reform Party (STAR) supported the call by the newly set-up ad-hoc committee, Democracy Sabah, (Desah) for a one-to-one fight in most of the Sabah seats at the coming general election.
Sabah STAR chairman, Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, in a statement here today said STAR also supported the formulae proposed by Desah to identify which political party and possible candidates are most suitable to stand in which seats.
"We support the idea and the general idea of 'support auditing' of parties and candidates. I think debates between possible candidates are also very healthy but we must bear in mind too that a good debater might not be as good in other aspects of leadership as politics is not confined to debate alone.
"As far as STAR is concerned we are looking at our possible candidates that are brave, knowledgeable, and people-oriented, and on top of that they must believe in empowering the autonomous state and subscribe in the Borneo Agenda," he said.
He added that true democracy is also about giving the people the right and freedom to choose in multi-party system, and not necessarily confined to two party system, or worse like in few dictator-ruled countries, only one very dominant party.
"What is more important to Sabah is to have a Federal Government that respects the state rights and autonomy in determining its own course, and allows Sabahans to elect their own chief minister and for them to manage their state's affairs," he added.
Adakah ini bermakna STAR sanggup untuk bekerjasama dengan parti pembangkang?
ReplyDeleteJK tidak akan bekerjasama dengan parti pembangkang lain sebab dia sendiri saja yang mahu naik. Dia mahu rakyat cuma sokong dia dan parti dia saja.
DeleteJK ada agenda untuk dicapai, bukan senang untuk bekerjasama.
DeleteStar nak bertanding seluruh kerusi di Sabah, ia tak menampakkan dia nak bekerjasama dgn parti2 lain.
DeleteJika pembangkang ikhlas berjuang, tiada masalah bah tu mahu bekerjasama antara satu sama lain.
ReplyDeletetunggu dan lihat sajalah sama ada parti2 pembangkng akan bersatu atau tidak.
DeleteSTAR dan SAPP masing2 ada hati mahu tanding semua kerusi. Apa macamlah tu..huhu
ReplyDeleteBagus juga kalau Star dan SAPP mahu tanding semua kerusi. Tengok parti mana yang akan dapat menang banyak
ReplyDeletekalau mereka mahu tanding semua kerusi nampaknya pertandingan tiga penjuru akan berlaku.
DeleteKalau nak bertanding, bertandinglar dengan bersih dan adil.
ReplyDeletePembangkang tidak sehati, bukan mudah untuk memperjuangkan misi yang sama.
ReplyDeletejika tidak bersatu memang susah mereka mahu berjuang bersama.
DeleteKalau 1-to-1, mungkin satu cadangan yang baik. Lets see how BN respond to these.
ReplyDeletetunggu dan lihat sajalah, tapi setekat ini tiada persefahaman yang menyatakan akan berlaku 1 lawan 1.

ReplyDeleteSabah memerlukan darah dan fikiran baru untuk membawa Sabah ke peringkat yang lebih berkembang.
kalau star mahu bertanding semua kerusi di Sabah, maknanya mereka tidak akan bekerjsama dengan parti pembangkang yang lain.
ReplyDelete1 lawan 1?? Bagaimana dengan hajat STAR untuk bertanding di semua kerusi di Sabah. Kalau 1 lawan 1 mungkin tidak ada peluang STAR untuk semua itu.
ReplyDeletemaknanya STAR setuju untuk tidak bertanding di semua kerusi la ni kan??
