If Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim wasn’t so obsessed with Sabah lately, he would have more time to do other things. Like formulating policies, kicking PAS into line – the sort of essential measures we might expect of a man asking us to trust him if elected as Prime Minister at GE13.
But Anwar cannot get past Sabah, which he, for some reason, sees as a magic carpet ride to Putrajaya. He spent much of 2012 engineering defections to boots his chances in the state and then played the oil card – promising to boost the state’s oil revenues from five percent to 20 percent.
But it all went wrong for Anwar when his deal with SAPP imploded. For most rational politicians that would have been it. They would move on from the setback and get back to weightier matters. But Anwar is not among ‘most rational politicians‘.
In a last ditch effort to bring SAPP back into the fold, he promised to grant Sabah autonomy. In fact, it seems SAPP is insisting on it, with SAPP President Datuk Yong Teck Lee demanding that Anwar signs an undertaking to “accord autonomy to Sabah and to accept its state manifesto“.
This is where Anwar has ended up on the eve of GE13. Minor parties that know how desperate he is for their support can now publicly pressure him into signing over powers before they will play ball. And sadly, Anwar folds instantly, acceding to their demands.
Like so many of Anwar’s whims this latest idea hasn’t been thought through. Sabah State Reform Party (STAR) leader Jeffrey Kitingan says Anwar “doesn’t know what he was talking about or deliberately ignores the agreement, the promises and the assurances made by the Founding Fathers of Malaysia.”
He reminded Anwar that the autonomy for Sabah and Sarawak is “not a matter of federal policy” and Anwar’s plans “reflect his old Ketuanan Melayu mentality and attitude towards the East Malaysian States.”
Now you have been told, Anwar.
This latest shabby proposal again showcases Anwar’s desperation.
Just this week he was declared ‘Huguan Siou of Malaysia‘ (great leader of Malaysia) by the Kadazandusun. This involved Anwar dressing up in hats and robes that don’t befit him to assume a title that is factually incorrect.
The backlash was instant, with Anwar accused of showing “total disrespect” for accepting a title he should have politely declined and, for the record, the ceremony at which Anwar received the sash emblazoned with Huguan Siou was organised by PKR’s division in Ranau. It was yet another stage-managed party affair.
Time is running out for Anwar to give up his Sabah obsession. Already it is taking up too much of his time and energy and if he really wants to be a big fish in the state perhaps he should relinquish his national ambitions and run for the state assembly. He might even like it better?
He should also remember that the real “great leader” of Malaysia is the Prime Minister and that position isn’t decided at a stage-managed ceremony in Sabah.
Were those Sabah people even serious into giving him the title of Huguan Siou? Or are they literally making him looked like the ‘joker for the year 2013′? Hahahaha!!
For the Kadazan Murut (KDM), it’s a really big deal.
Since it was a staged affair, I think it’s obvious that PR was trying to hijack the title, perhaps hoping that people would be fooled.
You know, it’s like claiming “The Mini is the Rolls Royce of tissue box cars.” Just done on a really, really dumb level.
Ah, I always leave out the “Dusun” in KDM.
are you ready for BN – NOOOOOOOO
are you ready to dump BN – yesssssssssss
are you ready for PR – yessssssssssssssss
Reject BN for a better future – yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
You got nothing else to say?
You know that others can say the opposite?
Are you stupid?
that why this mangkuk follows the dictatorship of DAP/PKR and PAS….yes man…no man….tu je dia tahu.

Biarlah…dia tak suka BN….just make sure you dont use, wear nor touch anything BN did since 1957.
Malu lah… cakap tak suka tapi bila di beri ambil.
Orang kata..BESAR KEMALUAN…
Back in 1994-1996 I lived in Sabah. I lived in Likas, an area with parts of it black-listed by the police. There are parts of that place where you get weird people, is what I’m saying.
Anyway, one day I took a mini bus from Likas to Kota Kinabalu town. I sat just behind the driver, and I could see that the seat across from the driver was occupied by a Malay gentleman who was wearing a white suit. I paid him no mind.
But, during the ride, he started talking. Of all things that came out of his mouth, he said that he was to be the King of Sabah.
“Aku akan jadi Raja Sabah, bah. Anwar Ibrahim sudah janji sama aku. Kamu lihat ini,” he pointed to his suit, “Ini Anwar Ibrahim bah yang kasi aku.”
I wanted to laugh out loud so bad, but I managed to bottle it in. When the bus arrived at the terminal near the Pasar Sayur KK, I just went over to him, shook his hand and said “Selamat jadi Raja Sabah, ya pakcik?”. Then I hopped off the bus, and never saw the guy again.
So, Anwar Ibrahim making promises to Sabahans is nothing new. I just hope that that poor man had his wires loosened before he even met Anwar, and didn’t go nuts because of Anwar’s unfulfilled promises.
Before anyone asks, yes, this happened. I swear in the name of Allah SWT. You can disbelieve me if you want, but I will stand before God in the Hereafter and will have no fear in having lied about this.
Hoi, kau tengoklah nanti! Bila Anwar dah jadikan aku Raja Sabah, aku cari kepala kau!
Wah, Raja Sabah ada kat sini!hebat…
Dulu bukan ada ke sorang yang ngaku raja Malaysia dan Indonesia dan juga orang terkaya dunia?Apa jadi dengan dia?
Hello there, friend. We will both become kings when Butt Man becomes PM.
Be ever you so high, I’m yourDatuk..now, kiss my hand!
Raja Sabah
lu jadi Raja Orang Utan dulu maa… baru ngam.
I believe what you say, SOG. Really.
I might even believe what Raja Sabah designate said. Anwar’s choice of appointees and candidates often leaves much to be desired. All those who’ll say yes to him.
Problem is: he might have been on his psychotic moment when appointing a fellow psycho as Raja Sabah.
Note: God knows he might even appoint Mat Sabu as DPM if he ever becomes PM. Just to get Mat Sabu withdraw the title he conferred on Anwar a long time ago – Al Juburi!
Aaaaaahh, this title conferring business ….
lol!
Is he still around, this raja sabah guy? Does he have relations to Raja Brooke (beruk)
Just like Hadi Awang, he gleefully accepted the titles and that caused so much pain and confusion. Stars Struck!!!! Old man in a hurry.
You mean the title of candidate PM?
Unless I missed some past events in Sabah, I think they won’t give Hadi the title Huguan Siou ever. His party PAS issued the 7 paragraph statement stating kalimah Allah is not for non-Muslims.
And they’d remember Hadi sneering at those “natives still wearing cawat (loin cloth)”, etc.
Yup…Hadi for PM and Anwar for Huguan Siou. Both of them wannabes.
All Malaysians don’t be fool; BN just sucking yr hard earned RM from TOLL, Syabas, car excise duty , import duty Over 24/7 then BN will pay u only on election year. Thats mean Suck u for 5 years then pay on election year so it is still a good biz model for them!!!!
PR Selangor didn’t even pay single mothers the RM100 promised since 2008. Now single mothers have sued them. What are you talk?
What more want to talk about about being declared ‘Huguan Siou of Malaysia‘ by the unauthorized reps of Kadazandusun people –
A plain and simple national news report today saying:
KOTA KINABALU: President of the Malaysian Kadazan Dusun Murut Organisation (KDM Malaysia), Datuk Peter Anthony, has called on the people of Sabah, especially the KDM community, to give their mandate to Barisan Nasional under the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to continue with the government’s transformation agenda.
And now the fellow allowing the title be given to Anwar gets walloped:
KOTA KINABALU: TUARAN member of parliament Datuk Wilfred Bumburing has been accused of failing the Kadazandusun community for condoning the ceremony that bestowed opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim the “Huguan Siou” title.
Bumburing , who once served as the Kadazandusun Cultural Association (KDCA) deputy president, should have known what was happening when he attended the “coronation” at Paginatan, Ranau, to declare Anwar as the “Huguan Siou” or paramount leader of the community.
Bumburing is said to have turned a blind eye towards preserving his ethnic pride and tradition, allowed his political emotions to take precedence over such values.
Best part is Mat Saboo said “Anyone can give any award to whoever they prefer. That’s their decision & there is nothing wrong with it.”
I hereby confer the title, Darjah Keldai Kelas Pertama (DKK1) that brings the title Donkey to;
Mohamad Sabu
Anwar Ibrahim
Wilfred Bumburing
Any other nominations for the title are welcomed.
Sekian. Terima kasih
I award the title Telephone Man to Sabu
The guy deserves the Pingat Utama Kebaktian Istimewa.
plus….
Ahli Mangkuk Negara ….
Bumburing is Brutus and the guy he stabbed is not BN but Anwar!
I think many, inc. myself, predicted that all this fear-mongering and postulations are a precursor to what BN will do when they lose big time. We predicted some “law-breaking incidents”, some innocents will be pulled up and “artifacts” provided as evidence, arrests will be made, RTM will carry all this front-and-center, there might even be curfews….just so that the rakyat will be cowering. BN still operates with a 70s mind – therein lies the problem – too detached (living in their palaces with obscene wealth) from realities of today to provide any kind of meaningful solutions to today’s issues. As far as I am concerned, BN can eat dirt and die!
operate 70s mind? Ni baca komik mana ni?
But on the bright side, Anwar now has boxes among boxes of tiger prawns. He can open a prawn aquacultural farm
Just imagine…. Boxes of clams, mussels etc in chilled crates…. He cooks a feast for PR head honchos…. The lot of them went to Segambut for the party…. A few hours later an emergency call was made… Everyone writhing around in pain, puking & crapping their pants… Who gets the blame???

Former IGP Musa Hassan’s remark that he is confident that the losing parties will use their supporters to create chaos to topple the government just like what happened in the Middle East and have an Arab Spring here is not just scurrilous and mischievous but is downright fear-mongering.
He is not alone, in recent days, in singing this chorus called the ‘Arab Spring’. Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak sang it when he said that he hoped the opposition would accept the result of the upcoming election and not find an excuse to create chaos if they lost.
Law Minister Nazri Aziz and Defence Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi joined in the chorus as well following Najib’s remark.
All this started from one man, the puppet master himself, former premier Mahathir Mohamad, who on Feb 6 posted on his blog about ‘Anwar’s Promise’.
He alleged, without any proof or reference, that… “In Australia it is reported that Anwar promised to engineer an Arab Spring in Malaysia. He will duplicate Cairo’s Tahrir Square in Kuala Lumpur and he will organise demonstrations involving hundreds of thousands of people in order to bring down the government if he loses the election.”
Their message is clear – BN is for peace and stability, Pakatan is for chaos and revolution. What is your choice? If you want peace and stability, vote for BN resoundingly or else Anwar will take your children to the streets of Kuala Lumpur and their lives will be sacrificed.
This is intimidation of the subtler kind, a skill that BN has perfected into an art form under Mahathir and we the rakyat are conditioned to respond to.
Images of violence at Egypt’s Tahrir Square or Bersih 3.0 in KL are bandied before us peace-loving, self-preserving Malaysians and we are asked – “Do you want this?”
There is a problem with this picture, we are not Egyptians and the violence in Bersih 3.0 did not come from ordinary peace-loving Malaysian but from the brute force of the police.
BN’s mantra for the coming election has been ‘Don’t Change’ and ‘Vote for Peace and Stability’. Heck, MCA even came out with a People’s Stability Bus to aid in their campaign.
Who in their right mind doesn’t want peace and stability? The question is, who is the one really threatening violence should they lose?
I recall PM Najib’s vow at the 2010 Umno Assembly that “they will defend Putrajaya with our bodies and broken bones”. Though challenged by DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang to retract, Najib has not.
To illustrate this form of intimidation by BN, let me use this analogy. It is like a schoolyard bully and his gang who comes up to a scrawny trembling victim and saying that he(the bully) is really a peace-loving fella who doesn’t like to break bones and spill blood.
And if the victim is really smart, he should just pay up so that bones won’t be broken and blood won’t be spilled.
How long must we remain living in fear like that scrawny trembling schoolboy? Shouldn’t we say, “Enough is enough!” and put an end to this sort of bully-tactics.
The scenario painted by Mahathir and echoed by his choir boys is not without precedent in Malaysian politics.
One can recall the infamous May 13 riot and the not-so-famous riot in Sabah in 1986, after PBS, an opposition party then, won the state election.
Usno and Berjaya (the fore-runner of Umno) couldn’t accept the result nor the court decision on it, organised a riot with mainly Filipino illegal immigrants where fish bombs were exploded and a 39-day curfew was imposed.
It was also alleged that our puppet-master who was the PM then gave backing to the riot for otherwise it could not have happened.
Yes, there may be chaos and instability because the losing parties couldn’t accept the result of GE13 but history tells us it is more likely to come from the schoolyard bully who has been around too long and cannot accept that his reign of terror has to come to an end.
se ekor lagi baru baca komik….
Calling BN a school yard bully ? So now BERSIH violence police doing ? Proof ? PR Goons not violent ? Wei Thomas you living in Tim Bak tu ke ? From History itself from Memali to Al Maunah member of the PR coalition has been well known for inciting violence. If not why PAS khawarij talibans even attacked the Perak Royalty during the PERAK Issue ? Pr goons through Anwar are drawing first blood on many occasions . You see PR and their supporters are now behaving like a spoil brat with an itchy mouth, always throwing cheap threats and complaining over patty things but actually got no balls. Like the fellow who showed the finger to the queen. Pr from their supporters to their leaders will initiate kurang ajar provocation and when see a risk of retaliation cry for mama and claim being bullied.
Missed replying to this comment because of attraction to the new post.
I simply cannot understand – perhaps more rightly said, cannot accept, even cannot tolerate – those who say “the violence in Bersih 3.0 did not come from ordinary peace-loving Malaysian but from the brute force of the police.”
Why couldn’t it go into their blasted heads that the major part of the violence started from Anwar Al Juburi’s hand signals that set in motion the breaking of the barrier to the Dataran Merdeka that day. The Police must have yards of film footage showing the turn of events from that occasion onwards. They have shown snippets that surely those putting out such comments as above must have seen.
All hell broke loose when the Dataran Merdeka was breached. It marked the violence against a Court Order that the authorities have obtained and that must have been a major factor in what must have been an automatic and spontaneous response by the Police to shoo the demonstrators from the then legally sacrosanct area.
One thing led to another, as surely the Police film footage must show, leading to the demonstrators running helter skelter, pursued by the Police who surely was then aiming to break up the demonstration and getting them out from the demo area right to the Masjid Jamek LRT Station. Water canons, tear gas canisters and baton wielding ensued.
Now, who the hell started the fracas? And who brought the violence to the area? Would there have been violence if Anwar had not given the hand signal, interpreted by the nearby crowd – rightly or wrongly – as as a go-ahead to force into the Dataran Merdeka grounds? Would there have been any violence if the crowd had not breached the Dataran Merdeka in a surge that caused an automatic response by the peace keepers nearby?
What the bloody hell is this Thomas bloke talking?
Time permitting, more to come against the nonsense he put out here.
Now, this bloke Thomas went one step further by mischievously asking “who is the one really threatening violence should they lose?”
Trying to imply that PM Najib’s statement at the 2010 Umno Assembly that “they will defend Putrajaya with our bodies and broken bones” is a vow of violence. What kind of demented mind and warped thinking has he to think defending with our bodies and broken bones only means violence, or involving physical attacks?
Has he such a small mind and a narrow thinking as Lim Kit Siang? Can’t he see that PM Najib was talking metaphorically there? Couldn’t they think that a PM will never speak for violence? Have this Thomas and stupid Lim Kit Siang no sense of responsibility to suggest that and to demand a retraction? Isn’t that so smallness of mind and shallowness of thinking that it didn’t deserve any response by DS Najib?
Good that Najib did not reply. It’ll be below a PM to reply to such a stupid former Opposition leader. Stupid comments certainly don’t deserve any response from a Prime Minister.
Time permitting, there’ll be yet more to come against the stupid comment made by Thomas above.
Hope readers will see that the word stupid used in my replies above are justifiable. I’m calling a spade a spade. Such comments must not be allowed to go unchallenged in strong and serious tones.
Racist la lu brader. Recently the word stupid was declared to be inherently racist in nature. Since it was proclaimed by Guan Eng the Great, it must be true….
Hahaha, guilty conscience made him declare it, eh?
Looks like my time permits me another comment now, given below:
It’s clearly and utterly irresponsible, even crazy thinking, on the part of this bloke Thomas to liken BN as a schoolyard bully, and to refer to the Pakatan Rakyat as a “peace-loving fella who doesn’t like to break bones and spill blood.”
Bloody hell, PR includes the DAP, a party that had caused the 13 May 1969 race riots. Read the White Paper produced by the National Operations Council in October 1969 (can be Googled) to know the details of the hooliganism, rude and vulgar words, behaviour of extreme provocation that led to the racial clashes. And the gangsters that participated in the victory celebrations and taking part in the clashes. And DAP was led by Lim Kit Siang at that time.
And this Thomas bugger talks about DAP being among “the victim” of a possible BN violence if PRU13 results are not favourable. Of paying up “so that bones won’t be broken and blood won’t be spilled.” What utter twisting, spinning and dastardly slanting of a macabre scenario in accusing BN of possible violence. When DAP was the party that was prone to violence as proven by their role in the race riots of 1969. How ghastly is this Thomas bugger’s thinking. How nasty and mischievous. Damn him.
This is in fact proof of the Opposition effort at spreading fear among the voters and the populace. And the gall of the bastard is that in doing so, he’d say that BN is spreading the fear. How can right thinking Malaysians give votes to this kind of blokes. Never. And we must make all attempts to inform and persuade the ordinary voters to keep their votes away from this band of hooligans, hate mongering and fear spreading Pakatan Rakyat, as exemplified by this notorious goon calling himself Thomas.
