Datuk Dr Jeffrey berucap ketika melancarkan Parti
Star di DUN Kemabong.

KEMABONG: Pemimpin terdahulu telah membuat keputusan tergesa-gesa dalam persetujuan pembentukan Malaysia melalui penyatuan Tanah Melayu, Sabah, Sarawak dan Singapura. Ini adalah antara punca utama hak asasi rakyat Sabah sepertimana yang terkandung dalam 20 Perkara mudah dimanipulasikan oleh pihak persekutuan.

Negara Brunei dan Singapura yang kini jauh lebih maju dan pesat membangun malah memiliki ekonomi yang jauh lebih baik berbanding Sabah selepas mereka tidak meneruskan untuk bersama dalam pembentukkan Malaysia pada ketika itu (Singapura keluar dari Malaysia tahun 1965).

Melvin San shares his personal experience at Bersih 3

I am very proud of my 2 younger children who were with me at Bersih 3.0 (my eldest is in Japan). They braved the tear gas, chemical-laced water and intimidation by the police and riot squad - they refused to leave until 4 pm, the official time that the organisers informed the rally would end. In the process, my son, Aaron was badly affected by the tear gas when he went forward to the "frontlines" to take pictures of the Police. I had to restrain my daughter, Audrey from following him.
