PM: Well done Chief Minister...

What more can we say, PM has met Sabah BN leaders yesterday.

But I 'm curious why did they conduct the meetings in dubious fashion. They talked to PM separately- one political party after another, a closed door like, as if Sabah leaders can't sit down together and can't see eye to eye. My God, where are we heading from here?

Anyway, I have briefly scanned some of the statements made by the PM in our local papers (...)

But just to digress a bit; many people have said, they were not sure if that meetings meant anything let alone comforting to them.

But Sabah leaders may have different interpretations.

To general public, all those issues aren't new nor are the answers crystal clear.

Let me pick some key phrases to remind ourselves.

Not in chronological order of priority, wonder if that's what the local papers also meant.

JPPS -The State Federal development department must be closed. Did PM say that?

Sabahans want it to be closed, it's just duplication of works- waste of public money to mend the department. Sabah is now under the rule of BN government, there isn't a need any more.

Money from Federal now should go direct to Sabah Ministry of Finance.

PM said , we review lah!

Illegal immigrants ever red hot issue, how to resolve it?

PM sees it this way, we need more detention centers the current centers are overcrowded

He has directed new Minister of Home Affairs to look into this.

It means he really know it-done in advance!

But don't they already have a committee?

Ya, one, called Special Cabinet committee headed by Deputy PM.

DPM has made recommendation. But no one sees?

Sabah BN leaders want the number of Borneo officers be increased in Federal Departments and Federal Government Agencies.

Yes, PM thinks they want.

Sabah leaders want to revive Minister Sabah Affairs as was during USNO time. PM replied that he would look into it. It means no need lah!

SAPP raised the issues on illegal immigrants, abuse of mykad, Street Children , Sabah Development Corridor, and proposed bridge Sabah Labuan.

Only SAPP said it not PM

What are missing? Many have thought to be in the discussion like, the number of Ministers that would be given, increase petroleum royalty (no let opposition do it)

The meeting as cordial although there were some pedas from Sabah UMNO'. It must be from Bung Moktar

Absent in the meeting with Sabah UMNO were Datuk Shafie and Datuk Ghapur, wonder where did they go? May be they were in Australia checking their kids.

To sum up the meeting, don't you PM resign, we sokong, hidup BN, or UMNO first in the order.
