Said this time & time again. Do NOT bring Semenanjung brand of politics to appeal to Borneo folks, they're not the same.

I think the worst attitude Semenanjung parties have when entering S&S is that they act like *THEY* are the only one who can save S&S from themselves.

From the recent election, we know one thing:

CORRUPTION DOESN'T MATTER TO SABAHANS.

If it did, GRS would have won zero seats last night, but they didn't.

Again, the main factor for PH's losses is local sentiment.

They see Semenanjung as the BIG BAD WOLF when the real wolves are right in front of them, and they chose to be oblivious about it.

Warisan replacing PH is a big achievement already and they did that just in 3 years since DAP attained over 94% of type C vote.

So, why GRS won, and why Warisan fall short? Also why DAP lose all?

Ketat2 yg bijaksana, please share your thoughts.

I think, urban areas support Warisan for change, while rural areas remain unconvinced. General sentiment in rural areas is that revolution will not benefit them. Better take what is given to them without big hope, not asking much unrealistically.

Warisan also appeared to support pilaks, makes them less popular w native Sabahans.

Upko captured 3 seats, up from previous 1 seat? It means the 40% theme is more relevant to Sabahans, not corruption topics.

DAP appeared aggressive in their stance, made some remarks look unpleasant n disconnected w grassroots. Was their campaigns more about corruption? If true, they haven't learn their lessons in semenanjung. Corruption topics won't win them votes.

PIS contest 72 seats, gets zero. Why??

Generally, Sabahans more concern w Sabah's rights n benefits. Bribery, corruption, songlap won't work.

are sabahan happy with the results...?

some old some old no changes

PH cannot always campaign with Corruption topics. For people in semi urban/rural areas, you have to get the basic rights, clean water, electricity, good roads, cost of living.
They have seen how PH champian all kind of reform when in the opposition, but do the opposite when they are in power.

BMX is Gaza first, mys second, doesn't deserve a second term.

Pm and political party can comes and goes, people and country live on.

State elections are a different ball game from parliament elections

Chinese always like to remind the people representing them to not take their support for granted

If you have Selangor state elections today and no Parliament election, I can bet that DAP will lose a few of their seats too

However, when it comes to Parliament seats, it's a different story altogether

Now warisan will face the same brick wall as dap

Once you're the urban party, say goodbye to having chance to make inroads into rural native areas

Warisan was supposed to do that but instead they choose the easy way and jus keep attacking DAP in urban areas

All I'll say is good luck

Certainly no

On popular votes count

GRS and warisan are closely tight (both 18k+)

GRS only won because of gabungan

I forsee the next GE, with even stronger S4S sentiment and traction by warisan, warisan can outvote GRS.

GRS only won because they teamed up with PH? If they hadn't given PH those 22 seats, they probably would've easily gotten a simple majority by themselves. If PH isn't in the federal government, their alliance might have broken up already

Plenty must be surprised but they forget C vote have been pragmatic. C proven merit of democracy by voted out politician that unable to deliver improvement

Gave BN chance. 1MDB. Out you go
Gave PH chance. No reform. Out you go

I used hv a M engineer say he hv to vote PN for religious duty but he want PH to rule the country as PN is clueless

Yup only because of Sabah rights. Fluke loss la for PH.

PH no need worry in Semenanjung. Sure win la next GE how to lose. Outstanding performance as govt! Keep up your good job Madani.
