June 1st the Dayak communities in Sarawak will be celebrating the Harvest Festival. In a true spirit of multiracial Sarawak all the various races will be joining in this celebrations together.
Audie61 and the management team would also like to take this opportunity to wish all their friends,supporters,allies,FELLOW SARAWAK BLOGGERS a very ‘ Happy Gawai Dayak ″ Gayu Guru Gerai Nyamai“
Todays headlines in the main stream media obviously is all about the Sarawak Workers Party helmed by Youth Advisor to the Chief Minister Larry Sng. Our Rocket scientist Bugi Wijaya from Sabah in audie61 is now scratching his head as the political situation in the Sarawak he says has gone”murkier’ and thrown a spanner in the works in the very existence of BN4.
If you are not confused he said I am and and its really confusing as we can see from this statement and moreover its not so convincing.”
Larry, 33, maintained SWP would be a Barisan Nasional (BN)-friendly multi-racial party but would contest against PRS in its six seats of Lubok Antu, Sri Aman, Hulu Rajang, Kanowit, Julau and Selangau.
“We will be friendly to the rest of the state BN component parties and look forward to working with them. We are not against the policies, but we do feel that there are better candidates who are willing to serve the people and we believe that we have that kind of candidates under SWP”
BN3 out of BN4 we are friendly but the other is my enemy as we are attacking PRS. If i was to extract this from a FB posting from a fellow BN component party member I should think we may manage to get through the day unscathed and more or less does not need to enlist in a mental instituion of some sort or to take “depression pills”
The extracted FB posting” Amai…SWP= Suka Wang Punya… Jangan diberi support. Hanya PBB, PRS, SPDP dan SUPP adalah BN Sarawak… Ingat! Sekarang kitai nemu dini hati Larry… Ukai ya hati BN Sarawak… Kepentingan diri ya, baka apai ya… Orang baka ya patut dibuai negeri…”
Those two phrases”BN-friendly but fighting the BN/PRS in their constituencies” and friendly to the other component BN parties.. SUCH CONFUSION …….Oh Boy!
Its more or less like telling us the opposition in Pakatan you are now fighting one true BN and the other BN friendly party says an opposition member. BN tries to confuse us but we will still be fielding our own candidates and we will try to wrestle the seats from the infighting that is in existence in BN.
Whats more the statement from Wong Judat will give us an indication of whats to come. This appeared in the STAR”Wong Judat Meluan assemblyman from SPDP who was invited tothe event,launched an attack on Entulu and asked voters to vote him out. He also told the reporters that Joseph Salang was not interested in reconciling with him after SPDP President William Mawan called for them both to make up.
He(Salang) did not attend a proposed meeting between himself and I. This showed that he was against reconciling.”he said.
The opposition member who wants to remain anonymous has this parting words,”
These are his words,””WAHAI ANAK BUMIPUTRA SARAWAK”, WE MUST STAY UNITED UNDER SARAWAK BN COALITION. WHEN WE SPLIT UP, THE MORE WEAK WE BECOME…WE MUST STOP THE SPLITTING UP OF OUR PEOPLE! THIS IS WHAT OUR ENEMIES WANT US TO DO… DIVIDED WE ARE NO THREAT TO ANYONE, BUT AS A UNITED PEOPLE WE ARE A FORCE TO BE RESPECTED AND HONORED… Maybe to some feared… HIDUP ANAK SARAWAK!
(..We know the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help me God…)
We knew it from the start. It was nothing much as Wong Judat and Joseph Salang are bests of friends and there are no animosities amongst them. All it needs was an intervention of some sort. The misunderstanding came between the duo was due to AN APPROVED FUND WHICH WAS DIVERTED AND URGENTLY NEEDED FOR USAGE ELSEWHERE.
OF COURSE some would not let it rests. They will try to use it to their advantage especially so when a Parliamentary seat is in the offing. The Julau Constituency has seen many battles from the PBDS days (infighting) to today PRS who will not have it easy too.
The former Deputy President of PRS Sng Chee Hua is the man behind SWP. He has declared that he will go after only the PRS seats which he feels that he knows very well the terrain and the background of the seats and are considered winnable. One would hear Sng singing from the corridor,”Wah Lai Loh-Bo Pang Koi Lu” (I’m Coming and not letting you off)
According to a protem member from SWP Sng has not forgiven James Masing for the wounds are cut very deeply into his heart. This new lease of life “BN-friendly party’ in SWP will gauge after the GE13 where the party is heading and also for the Sngs faction”
Meanwhile, PRS member from Julau welcomed the news of SPDP working together to fight against the opposition parties and in a common enemy in Pakatan. SWP is also a threat to BN /PRS Joseph Salang and with Melaun division on our side it has ‘diffuse a potentially explosive affair’
There should not be COMPLACENCY as far as PRS is concerned and there will engage all detractors and ensure that PRS will maintain the seat for the ruling Barisan National.
We have often seen in the news about military personnels “killed in action by friendly fire” More often than not the enemy escapes unscathed and unhurt and live to fight another day. The intel given by forces on the ground did more damage than good. This GE13 Malaysia there will be, it seems “personnel fights within the BN” as far as Sarawak parliamentary seats are concerned.
BN engaging with BN friendly will give extra “HOPE” for the Pakatan strategic team to work on. The Pakatan team will be looking from the high ground and they will concentrate on the spillovers of the fight within BN to further strengthen their cause. We can write a number of thesis and have it submitted but often have we not question the WHY its been done?
There are obviously one thousand and 1 answers and you will have one answer already. We have heard too , the hearsays and the whatnots which spilled over at the carpets of the corridors of power. Many will not even leave their DEAR LIFE TO SAY THATS THE TRUTH.
The point of matter is with regards to SWP(Sarawak workers Party) and GE5 (BN Club) remnants of former PRS and SPDP engaging head on not only with the BN4 coalition in Sarawak but 1BN Malaysia made up of other BN partners. GE5 says if their candidate is not nominated they will stay out and support BN.
We were fortunate to sit down with PRS YB Alex Vincent (Ngemah) and SWP Protem Deputy Chairman YB George Lagong (Pelagus) and also PBB YB Len Talif (Belawai) at lunch during the recent DUN sitting. What was interesting was the question that was put to George Lagong?
“BN friendly but SWP is going against BN in PRS held seats? How can that be termed friendly when on one hand you are considered BN friendly but when election comes you fight us. Shouldn’t you be fighting the DAP or Pakatan?”
Surely, this will be a major talking point in the run up to the GE13 says a political observer who was also at the table.
True enough, todays STAR news “let’s Tango,says Entulu” PRS deputy President was quoted” Come,face me in Selangau if you dare”he challenged Sng,the prime mover of SWP.He even said,”I will be sad if (Sng) doesn’t show up in Selangau as a candidate on nomination day.
Entulu even welcomed the candidacyof Sng’s son Larry or daughter,if Sng senior felt that they couldbeat him in Selangau. Sng would not be drawn into a war of words against Entulu but said that they SWP will field a candidate against Entulu.
What is friendly are the words which SPDP President has uttered which has caught the headlines. I’m sure you will agree with us these words are more BN tuned and in the spirit of a coalition which Taib and Najib would be praising the SPDP president.
Spdp President Mawan said SPDP and PRS are friends and partners in BN,”We are not enemies.Our enemies are the opposition parties” He pointed out that the recent disagreement between Salang and Wong Judat was only personal differences and it was not fair to drag the party and accuse the whole party that it is against PRS in Julau.
As much as BN thinks that this tactic would benefit the coalition the Pakatan knows already the tried and tested formula. BN wants to openly bring in and lure the fish to the net says a Pakatan spokesman but we are ready to challenge BN in all the 31 Parliamentary seats. They will not be one seat returned unopposed says the spokesman. The BN friendly fight doesn’t work anymore as we are ready to face headon Pakatan v BN.
A political observer said,”Entulu should also throw down the chalenge to Pakatan instead of justs SWP. The enemy is outside but it seems now it has come back to haunt PRS from inside. However a win for SWP isn’t it also a win for BN? It’s BN friendly.?”
We would not like to drawn into the mix of it all and as far as audie61 is concerned we know,”
Barely an hour after the final day of Sarawak assembly sitting the opposition leader of Sarawak DUN Wong Ho Leng tweeted,”Politics is power,said Swk CM Taib Mahmud in his winding speech but he declined to reveal his succession plan when asked by YB ChongCJ”
audie 61 sent a number of smses to BN Assemblyman to get some reactions.In the meantime we RT(return text) –‘he has the mandate to be in power for another 4 years.Does he need to reveal his successor? Up to PBB don’t you think so. ”
By then the smses came in and here are some:-
PBB SG N60 Assemblyman and Assistant Minister Dr.Stephan Rundi -“Why are they so eager to know? They refuse to accept Rakyat and PBB party mandate for the man to lead us. I’m sure they know the answer to my question,with him around it is impossible for them to defeat PBB and BN Swak,so they are hoping it may be possible to do so to the successor,but we in PBB are well prepared for the fight irrespective of who leads us,DAP wants to take control of Swak,”OVER OUR DEAD BODY”
PBB SC N 14 Assemblyman and Assistant Minister Hj.Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah,” Its none of DAP’s bisniz to ask when CM sh step down.He has the people”s mandate to lead until 2016.Further,question of successors is his and PBB problem.It’s not DAP’s problem.
DAP Swak leaders should question their DAP central when Lim Kit Siang is going to vacate or groom other leaders.Looks like that party top leaders are only grooming their own children as successors. Karpal has two sons as YBs. LKS has his son and in law asYBs and the lists stretch on to cousin etc etc.Nga and Ngeh in Perak.
In Swak it looks better,but whats DAP plan to help the bumis? All this commentsby their leaders on NCR etc are mere lips service to show they care.WHL only knows abt puasa n gawai after getting elected. Chong,n Kch DAPS lagi teruk. Only get publicity from those unhappy getting summon from polis,those getting wrongly figured electric or water bill,parking,block drain etc. Thats their speciality.”
PBB N67 Telang Usan Assemblyman Dennis Ngau – “Tell them to ask when lim kit siang going to retire.The electorate are solidly behind YAB CM. He go in his own term not DAP.”
PRS SC N43 Ngemah Assemblyman Alexander Vincent,”We as BN assemblyman are all behind his leadership and long may he continue to serve Sarawak“
SPDP DSG Political Secretary to CM Paul Igai – “Chong uttered the question imputing improper motive.I think that was not at all warranted. CM is not invalid or anywhere near. In fact He looks more fit than many in the DUN.”
SUPP X Calon for Batu Lintang Sih Hua Tong “In their election manifesto last year,they assured the voters(or rather,the bosses called “Taukeys“} that stronger mandates would enable them to pressure CM to step down.One year has lapsed and they are unable to honour their promises.The “taukeys” are watching and monitoring closely!
Thus,by hook or by crook they have to find a way out! They are running short of time and have to face the “Taukeys“soon.So what they are doing is to divert the attention of their “Taukeys” by questioning on the succession plan for CM.
It’s a mere political gimmick. They are spinning their “Taukeys“.They are bound to spin and divert further the core issue of “mandates” given to them in pressuring CM to step down.
It must be noted that the question of ‘succession plan” was never centralto their manifesto and campaign. By so doing,they hope to create a perception they are continuing to champion for the interests of their “Taukeys“.Sadly, deep in their heartsthey know they have betrayed their “Taukeys” by hoodwinking and spinning their”Taukeys“!
Of course,keeping their fingers crossed and hoping the “Taukeys” never able to detect their gimmicks.!
The tweets were out “over 3000++ has sent shivers says a registered voter to audie61. This is the trend that will happen in the urban areas. A credible candidate is needed to defend the SUPP held seat of Stampin when Yong Khoon Seng gives way to a new face”
Yong knows the score and when to call it a day as he is already 71 years old and he has defended the seat for a record 5 times and he will want to have an unblemished record. He is “winnable” says his party comrades but it will not be easy to sway his decision and he has done enough for his successor to take the fight from him to the opposition be it DAP or PKR. Both are still tussling over the seat as negotiations are still deadlocked as informed by a spokesman of the Pakatan Sarawak group.
Yong knows that the three state seats – Batu Lintang, Kota Sentosa and Batu Kawah – which form Stampin parliamentary constituency are under opposition control. BN lost all these seats to PKR and DAP in last April’s state election.
The combined majorities obtained by the opposition in the three state seats were 13,748 votes, and the number of votes secured by them in the three seats was 33,268 votes (out of 85,798 votes)
A lot of hard work,planning and careful strategising needs to be done by BN in order that the opposition will not have a “BREAKTHROUGH” win in this parliamentary seat. (see below tables)
The BN component parties needs to seriously be seen together to maintain the seat or else it will be A WIN FOR PAKATAN AND A LOSS FOR BN.

Just when you thought the BN is getting ready for the “Battle of Putrajaya” against the Pakatan this article does deliver a right upperhook to UMNO. There are no malice in it for the UMNO cybertroopers but it seems its more of a personal duel between PAPA GOMO and UMB UMNO Chief. This extracted from the portal,”Papa Gomo suspected that the Unit Media Baru Umno has been formed to serve the interests of only certain Umno leaders.”
The article which we posts is questionable and the amount of course will more than turn an eyelid. audie61 got to the UMB chief and he replied,”BAJET Training + prog.But not tht amount,gomo biasalah,suka buat cerita”
Here is Sarawak UMB BN Sarawak is under the political cyber troopers of PBB,SUPP,PRS and SPDP. The Team are all gelled together and led by UMB Sarawak Chief Abdul Aziz Tan Sri Adenan have been continuously countering the opposition allegations,defamation and character assasination from the run up of the State Elections till now and in preparations of GE13.
Of course,we do have slight differences but we sort it out in the bests possible ways all the time and Respect each other and make sure our differences are sorted before we go into battle. GE13 is going to be ugly and we need all our ‘cyber intelligence team ” to be on their TOES.
PAPA GOMO has stirred up the hornets nests and the UMB team are not going to sit down and let it go down without a fight. We will protect BN parties uppermosts but we will also take out the enemies from within.
Umno blogger Papa Gomo, who stirred up a ruckus with his Christian prime minister accusations against the DAP last year, lamented that while Umno has allocated RM300,000 a month to its official ‘cyber-trooper’ team, it has not been effective in getting more readers or convincing the people that Umno is the ‘good guy’ and Pakatan Rakyat the ‘bad uns’.
It is not clear how many cyber troopers are on board the Unit Media Baru Umno, but it is placed under Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin’s charge. Despite the huge sum of money – which again looks suspiciously like coming from taxpayers’ pockets rather than Umno’s own coffers – and the training plus red t-shirt uniforms, the ‘poor’ and under-resourced Pakatan Rakyat still holds the upper hand in cyberspace.
Within the BN sphere of influence, Papa Gomo also said that independent Umno bloggers like Gerakan Anti-PKR, Parpu Kari, RBF Online, The Unspineer, Dr Novandri and Pisau have managed to reach out to more readers, despite being limited by having to dig into their own resources.
Papa Gomo suspected that the Unit Media Baru Umno has been formed to serve the interests of only certain Umno leaders. Well, Papa Gomo must be implying self-aggrandizing party president Najib Razak and Khairy himself.
Need to ‘work smarter’
There have also been earlier news reports that Rocky Bru @ Akhiruddin Atan was the captain of the Umno cyber-trooper team. If so, he must be making tons of money now.
Yes, Papa Gomo is frustrated that maybe he and those ‘independents’ that he mentioned should be the ones who should get the RM300,000 per month instead of the freshies under Khairy.
Whoever is right, the entire episode again points to the fact that Umno is about money and only those who get the benefits by supporting certain leaders gain. They are the ‘clever ones’ while those who get nothing for what they do out of sheer loyalty to the party are simply ‘stupid’.
Even Rocky at one time lamented that he found it difficult to make ends meet after leaving the Malay Mail. And while at the Malay Mail, he said the fee was ‘puny’.
So it does look like Papa Gomo will have to be more clever if he wants to get more money from Umno.
Malaysia Chronicle
Let’s take a stroll back in time to before GE12. This was said,”In 2008, Tun Daim predicted the loss of BN in 5 states. The UMNO generals were up in arms. They vilified him, describing him with all sorts of disrespectful terms. Daim is a pensioner. Daim is out of touch. Daim is irrelevant. When the results came, what Daim predicted was generally true.”
Present time not Tun Daim but a member of the ruling Coalition in Sarawak who sent shivers down the BN Federal leaders by uttering this,” PBB will not have full marks 1 or 2 seats loss out of 14 , SUPP 7 (6 loss) PRS 6 seats (3 loss) SPDP 4 seats (3 loss) Around 12 to 15 seats out of 31 in Sarawak. This is reality check and if left as it is this will happen. {We will tell you who told us……hahaha this is not made up as there are too many sources you can verify from. It’s worth thinking about isn’t it.? Many will rush to tell we found it here at audie61. Don’t vilify and condemn us too…….}
(we will spare the details as it will be too long and repeating.Some have even made their plans for escape routes already in the eventuality..}
Remember also how Michael Manyin was told by CM Taib,”Sarawak will still be BN even if the Federal BN falls. Correct, as we have had our State elections. Only that there will not be anymore Federal allocations to Sarawak. BN Sarawak have already prepared for the worst case scenario.
A senior grassroot leader even said,’ We hope for the bests but prepare for the worst. We do what is necessary and don’t care what the opposition does but we are ready for them. ”
GE13 is the ultimate battle for BN in Sarawak but the whole country. If we deliver and are proven to be the safe bastion and lost 100 per cent up from 2 DAP won (Bandar Kuching and Sibu) to 4 the Federal BN will need to thank the PEOPLE OF SARAWAK handsomely.
However,the machinery needs to be well oiled and maintained for the fight of BN survival. All matters have to be looked into and there musts not be anything which musts be chanced. The grassroot leaders musts be able to carry out their tasks ,committed and be responsible.
All political dissatisfaction,allegations and misadventures are to be dealt with accordingly and there musts be a spirit of commadarie within the BN coalition and partners.IF ALL OTHERS FAIL, THEY STILL REMAIN STANDING TOGETHER.
We have two ears to listen and a mouth to speak. But rather than going on a trail of witchhunt and create enemies which we live to regret
It’s bests we just SMILE and BE HAPPY.
What has been done, is done and will never be easy to be erased and God will punish those who speak foul of one of his own. They say if you cannot Stand the heat,get out and stay out.
To those who love to snip and shoot meaninglessly away at all angles or also hoping to trawl the fish into the nets please don’t bother.
The blogs are meant to dessimate information and musts be used in the bests possible way to ensure the credibility of the source of information and also the way its being written basically not to run foul of the long arms of the multi media laws.
We musts be able to receive as much as we can give but there are limits when its overboard. A reminder,”
{…..dun think you got us and we will not strike back but they say one’s patience can take only so much Now you know you are human too…hahahahaha…}
Considering all other factors PM Najib would have to call the GE13 very soon before UMNO convention,world economy downturn and also the presentation of the Federal Budget in Parliament.
He missed several dates as political observers said”111111″ would have been an a glorious date which would have been a resounding victory but the Pakatan group managed to derail it. If its in September Pakatan would use it as a significant call for 916 all over again and it would be a rallying cry.
Many Pakatan members when interviewed unanimously said,” this time it will be more BN Frogs and September would be the end of BN. 2008 didnt happen for the FROGS but 2012 it will happen in September.”
Many dates are being thrown about and here are some:-
Another factor the Sarawak State Assembly sits from 14th -28th May 2012. The Dewan Rakyat is scheduled to convene for a sitting between June 11 to June 28. Puasa month starts from July 21st.
The window for Najib to dissolve parliament would be justs after the Dewan sitting and before the Puasa month kicks in. If he does not do that he will have to take it to September where Pakatan would use the rallying cry,”it will happen this September”
