“WILFRED Bumburing, leader of the so-called APS, is a prisoner of his own conscience because he is unable to distinguish between the right to fight/defend Sabah’s inalienable rights and the politics of nationalism.
He seems pre-occupied with the politics of 'cari makan' rather than fighting for regaining Sabah’s rights and correcting the wrongs committed by Malayan political leaders on Sabah,” said Datuk Dr.Jeffrey Kitingan, Chairman of STAR SABAH in response to Bumburing’s statement that STAR is 'Anti-Malaya'.
The people of Sabah have suffered long enough for all these years because people like Bumburing are prepared to sell their soul to secure a position with those who are responsible for colonizing Sabah in the name of national politics.
We have autonomous rights which have been eroded because leaders like Bumburing who prefer to work under and become proxies and stooges of Malayan political parties with their Malayan Agenda.
Is Bumburing against the Borneo Agenda? We, in STAR do not reject Malayan political parties. We prefer to work with them as partners not as their sub-servience.
When asked why Bumburing refused to cooperate with STAR, Bumburing (in a meeting with Dr. Jeffrey) replied that he doesn’t agree with the concept of 'Kingmaker'. When asked what he understands about the concept, Bumburing said,
“You can go here or you can go there” – meaning BN or PR. I said, “Well, “kingmaker” means you have a choice and you have the power of a leverage. You must have leverage to restore over lost rights. Without this leverage you are not In a position to demand”.
I then asked Bumburing how he will restore Sabah’s rights if he joins PKR? He said, “We are not joining PKR, only borrowing their symbol.”
I said “Ok ….. no matter but how are you going to get our rights back? He answered – “when we win, we shall make our demands. If don’t get it, we leave …..”
I was shocked for three reasons – one, what leverage do you have to demand when you belong to them (PKR). Two, where will you go if you leave? BN? Third, are you not a potential traitor to PR/PKR and to the rakyat who elected you? I rest my case. Sabahkini

ReplyDeleteTHE STATEMENT by Dr Jeffry Kitingan confirms what I have suspected about his role and mission in approaching the 13th general election. As an opposition party STAR should be directing their attack to the Barisan Nasional instead they choose to attack fellow opposition parties. They only do this because STAR is working for BN to split the votes in the coming election.

ReplyDeleteJeffry Kitingan can’t find any other words to attack me apart from describing me of practising politics of ‘cari makan’. If l were to practise politic of 'cari makan' then the best platform would be to remain in BN.

ReplyDeleteThe people, particularly the KDM began to see the fruitless and almost fairy tale so-called vision of Jeffry Kitingan such as promising to move the capital of Sabah to Keningau and creating five ‘states’ in Sabah if STAR take control of the state after GE 13.

ReplyDeleteAll his political endeavour points to only one thing and that is, he is trapped in his never-quashed-ambition to be the only number one in any political party that he ever joined and his sheer belief, may be from spiritual guru prediction, that one fine day he is going to be the chief minister of Sabah.

ReplyDeleteWay back during the PBS era, when Jeffry was released from ISA detention and confined to house arrest in Kuala Lumpur he was allowed to travel to Sabah briefly with the mission to persuade Datuk Pairin Kitingan then to step down as President of PBS and Chief Minister of Sabah and that he will take over the CM post from Pairin.

ReplyDeleteSo I agreed to travel to Tambunan to meet him. In the meeting he told me that he needed my support for him to take over PBS and the state government. I told him flat on his face that there is no way I condone the scheme. Therefore the meeting was brief and I came back and I was made to understand that he went back to Kuala Lumpur.

ReplyDeleteI also still remember back in 1994 that he wanted to head Parti Democratic Sabah that we registered when he failed to register his own party. Failing this he also tried to wrest the presidency of PBRS but also failed.

ReplyDeleteJeffry Kitingan mentioned about ‘about certain people who are prepared to sell their soul to secure position’. Let me remind Jeffry, lest he forgot, about his own record. Has he not joined the Federal government as a Deputy Minister? Can he also explain to the people about his application twice to become an UMNO member?

ReplyDelete"Refering to my encounter with Jeffry in my house I asked Jeffry as to what he meant by a ‘King Maker’ and I asked him to explain about his statement that he is ready to support BN. He said that as a king maker he can bargain. I told him that if he is prepared to support BN then why bother to use STAR, might as well just join BN. Yes of course he won’t join any of the BN component parties because he will never be the number one there.

ReplyDeleteA check with Papar found out that locals there also had heard of Sindu impending departure from the Sarawak-based opposition party. This is a big slap to Star leader in Sabah Dr Jeffrey Kitingan and his team who had been accused of sloppy management of the party here, some of them have said.

ReplyDeleteSindu, a former president of a now-defunct consumer body in Sabah, Cash, said he has lost confidence in Star leadership. Insiders in the know however claimed that Sindu could be unsettled in Star because the party has not made any commitment to him in regards to candidacy for the coming general election.
