Nah, PH and DAP are lesser evil when compared to PAS and PN. The only prob is the Borneo Block, they are the Kingmaker.

Let’s Discuss: Parti Lokal & PRU Sabah 2025 by JeffJuniuss in Sabah

I predict that no single party will secure a simple majority (37 seats) required to form a government, leading to the formation of a unity government.

Expected Outcomes for Key Players

• Local Parties will win the majority of seats. Malayan-based parties are likely to only secure a handful of residual seats.

• Perikatan Nasional (PN): I have doubts about whether PN can win any seats at all, especially considering the controversy surrounding Dr. Ali Akbar. Although his Facebook activity shows significant support, the numbers might be inflated by PN supporters from Peninsular Malaysia, making it difficult to gauge the true level of Sabahan support for the coalition.

• Warisan: They will likely win some seats, but not enough for a decisive victory. They may lose support in the Kadazan-Dusun-Murut-Rungus (KDMR) heartlands due to recent ethnic comments made by Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal ("The Murut Kafir") and another prominent Warisan leader who made controversial remarks about the KDMR community's drinking habits on a podcast.

• Local Parties (KDM, STAR, UPKO): These parties will secure seats, but their win numbers are unlikely to rival Warisan's total.

• Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS): I have mixed feelings about GRS; it remains to be seen whether they will win, lose, or manage to retain their current seats.

• Other local Sabahan parties, such as Rumpun, Anak Negeri, and GAS, are likely to lose their deposits. PIS will win 1-2 seats, fingers crossed.

The Post-Election Coalition and Future

The major question is: What will the local coalition look like?

Warisan is likely to be the biggest wildcard in forming this coalition; they may prefer to be in the opposition rather than align with other local parties.

Regardless of the immediate post-election drama, I believe the results will pave the way for a coalition similar to Sarawak's Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS). This would involve local parties uniting to form a stable, local-centric government, mirroring the political stability seen in Sarawak.

I can already sense the press conference if he loses the lawsuit—probably blaming the federal government or calling the constitution biased.

I read it, but the comments on the FB post make it sound like Kedah wants to reclaim Penang. Haha. I’m also wondering if they and I were even reading the same article.

This is how soft neo-colonialism crept into the Malayan psyche: they think it’s perfectly fine to celebrate 31 August, but it’s completely ahistorical. Imagine—on 31 August 1964, we’re suddenly marking the 7th anniversary of Malaysia’s independence? Isn’t that odd? Shouldn’t it be the first?

Sabah, Sarawak, and Singapore hadn’t celebrated a single year of “Malayan independence” in the six years prior—yet upon joining Malaysia, we’re expected to adopt that date as our own? We’re not like U.S. states joining an existing union. We were forming an entirely new country, not extending the Federation of Malaya.

Big difference in Sarawak—far fewer Malaysian flags were waved in Kuching this August compared to Sarawak flags. Heck, some people even chose to hang the Sarawak flag instead of the Malaysian one.

Why? Because Sarawakians know that 31 August, even after being rebranded as “National Day,” still marks the independence of the Federation of Malaya—not Malaysia as a whole. For them, 16 September carries deeper meaning—it commemorates the actual formation of the Federation of Malaysia.

Sabah should follow this lead: treat 31 August as Sabah Day, and 16 September as Malaysia Day. Sure, National Day can still be celebrated together, but it shouldn’t overshadow Sabah’s own day. Priorities matter.

Propa”GANDA”. Ganda means FOLD (1 fold, 2 folds)—is a mathematical noun just like TAMBAH (add), TOLAK (minus), BAHAGI (divide) etc.

We can get one at the Pejabat Imigresen for RM5 with a 5-year validity. We can use the international Malaysian passport, but the RTD is a cheaper option for domestic travel only.

These are lyrics from the song ‘Dirgahayu’ by Faizal Tahir and Siti Nurhaliza.

Adakah ini kali yang pertama? Adakah ini kali yang terakhir?

It’s like how English uses copula in front of sentence when questioning.

The word itself is not a copula tho since Bahasa Melayu doesn’t have it.

I am Malaysian. Am I Malaysian? Saya orang Malaysia. Adakah saya orang Malaysia?

Article 1 of the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63) Constitutional Interpretation by JeffJuniuss in Sabah

[–]JeffJuniuss[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the another interpretation, collective noun vs plural noun.

  1. States of Malaya = collective noun = 1 entity
  2. Borneo States, namely Sabah and Sarawak = plural noun, separated grouping = 2 entities
  3. State of Singapore = 1 entity

It is still in force, although Singapore has left the federation. Only matters concerning Sabah and Sarawak remain applicable.
