Sabah will lose more rights, voice in parliament
KOTA KINABALU: Sabah and Sarawak are not ready for the one-vote-one-value voting system which will see both states’ presentation in parliament reduced by 15%.
Currently Sabah’s 25 and Sarawak’s 31 parliamentary seats make up 25% of the 222 seats in parliament
Agreeing with Upko Kota Belud deputy chief Ewon Benedict, UK-based Borneo Plight in Malaysia Foundation (BoPiMaFo) chairman Daniel Jambun warned that a redelianation of boundaries will further erode Sabah and Sarawak’s position as equal partners in the federation.

Unite under UBA to Safeguard Borneo Rights - Jeffrey
Kota Kinabalu: “The people and political parties of Sabah and Sarawak should unite under a single umbrella to safeguard Borneo rights and secure their future under the Federation of Malaysia”said DatukDr. Jeffrey Kitingan, STAR Sabah Chief, in response to the various opinions on opposition unity in Sabah.
Ever since the formation of Malaysia in 1963 and the ejection of Singapore from the Federation in 1965, the position of Sabah and Sarawak has been eroded and rights taken away through a series of subtle and not-so-subtle manipulations by the Federation of Malaya and their political leaders in Kuala Lumpur.

SARAWAK SOVEREIGNTY MOVEMENT, new group to help regain Sarawak's glory

KUCHING: Malaysia was based on a big lie aka invasion and takeover bogeyman to scare the innocents in Brunei, Sabah & Sarawak to agree to form Malaysia.
Sabah & Sarawak leaders unlike Brunei sultan were so naive! Brunei saw through the Malayan agenda. Neither Brunei nor S'pore experienced the invasion Sabah & Sarawak had- Malayan invasion followed by illegals and Sulus.

Not all fraud is committed in broad daylight
By Ravinder Singh
Listen. Malaysian unbelievers should listen. When an Oxford graduate tells you to believe that 10 is approximately equal to 1, he should know what he is talking about. He told The Economist that there isn’t a shred of evidence to show any fraud in the recently concluded GE13. This despite the fact that the vote of a voter in Kapar (an opposition supporting area) was only worth 10% of the vote of a voter in Putrajaya (a ruling party supporting area). And this in turn despite the fact that para (c) 13th Schedule of the Federal Constitution expressly states that the number of voters in the various constituencies should be “approximately equal”. The VIP is Khairy Jamaluddin.

Redelineation Must Restore Sabah Sarawak Constitutional Safeguards - Jeffrey
Kota Kinabalu: “The redelineation of parliamentary constituencies must take into account and restore constitutional safeguards for Sabah and Sarawak and ensure that federal parliamentary seats for Malaya should not be more than 65% as agreed upon from the outset during the formation of Malaysia”said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, STAR Sabah Chief, when asked to comment on the proposed redelineation exercise to be undertaken by the Election Commission.
The uniqueness of the special position of the Borneo States in the formation of Malaysia has resulted in constitutional safeguards being agreed upon and provided for to ensure the rights of Sabah and Sarawak were not diluted or removed over time by the federal lawmakers from Malaya.

The winners and losers of GE13
What is crystal clear is that many Malaysians want a system of check and balance.
The Malaysian Insider
Take a bow, Malaysians. You are the big winner from GE13, you have firmly entrenched the two-coalition system in the country. The days of Barisan Nasional (BN) having unfettered power are truly over. The result of 2008 was not a flash in the pan, it merely was the start of a trend. Yesterday, that trend continued and Malaysians gave Pakatan Rakyat (PR) 89 federal and 230 state seats and 51 per cent of the popular vote.
What is crystal clear is that many Malaysians want a system of check and balance.
GE13 and the 13 predictions that came true
Many are waiting for my ‘I told you so’ article. No, I am not going to write an ‘I told you so’ article. Instead, I am going to remind you of the 13 predictions that were made for the 13th General Election that came true -- although there are actually more than 13 predictions that came true.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Prediction 1: About 80% or roughly 10.4 million of the 13 million or so registered voters would come out to vote.
What did happen: About 10.5 million Malaysians came out to vote on 6th May 2013.
Prediction 2: Barisan Nasional would win more than 130 parliamentary seats but less than the 140 seats it won in the 2008 general election.
Send Kanul to Parliament, pleads Patrick Sindu

| Patrick Sindu urging voters in Kota Belud parliamentary area to vote for Kanul Gindol |
PAPAR : As a veteran activist in Malaysia, I felt called to support fellow consumer and political activist, Kanul Gindol, who as an independent candidate is seeking to be elected Kota Belud member of parliament this Sunday polling.
I for one as an activist fully support what Kanul has been trying to do all these years, getting himself into Malaysian Parliament. We now have a chance to send him into Parliament via the Kota Belud seat.
I have known Kanul for many years and he would make the best parliamentarian not only for all Sabahans but Sarawakians too, and on top of that as a fearless mouthpiece for non-governmenatl organisations (NGO) and the marginalised.
