With the current political landscape, I don’t see these new parties getting the support from people of Sarawakian, either in the rural areas or urban areas.
Political analyst, Dr Jeniri Amir said that:
“Basically, these parties need support from rural voters because in the urban areas there is no way the Chinese or the middle class will support these mosquito parties.
“There is no light at the end of the tunnel for these five new parties,” he stated.
The analyst noted that Sarawak’s political landscape was heading towards a two- party system but the emergence of these five new parties was not really good for the scenario.
While the increase in political players is good for democracy, it splits and diluted the support for opposition parties, Jeniri added.
Rajah Raqafluz political analysis:
However, because of the political landscape was heading towards a two-party system where the other parties of opposition are Malaya-based parties (PR), it was an actually ingenious move and covert operation for Sarawakian politician landscape.
These scenarios actually opening up a new political landscape where these new parties in the future will make an allegiance either to become BN-friendly parties, PR-friendly parties or UBF-friendly parties. And the last alternatives, standing alone by their own.
The good thing about these new parties registrations is that the formation of opposition parties in Sarawak will increase as well which will become a rival for Malaya-based parties such as PKR, PAS and DAP. These new parties will strengthen the opposition voice of Sarawakian itself by rejecting the Malaya-based opposition parties either they're in the government front or opposition front.
These healthy environments where opposition voices will also consist of Sarawakians instead of Malaya proxies of PKR, PAS and DAP as being dictate currently in the political landscape, is good especially in the long run for the protection of Sarawak sovereignty from foreign power and puppet masters such as Malaya.
This is a hard lesson from Sarawak counter-part in Sabah, where politician have become merely a puppets led by Umno from Malaya-based parties.
This situation, where Malaya-based parties (PR) become dominant will not blend well with the Sarawakian especially for the long run of political progress in this biggest country of Sarawak in the Malaysia federation.
After all, all politicians, political analyst, scholars and Sarawakian alike should always remember that Malaysia is a federation of Sarawak, Sabah and Malaya.
Sarawak sovereignty must be protected on all fronts, at whatever cost it should be. And this time, opposition front should be protected from Malaya-based parties of PKR, PAS and DAP.
Sarawak for Sarawakians. Vote for Sarawak-based parties only.
