PRS men trying to destablize SPDP, targeting Bintulu MP Tiong
Jul 22, 2009 General
Is this an attempted by a faction in Parti Rakyat Sarawak trying to rock the boat of Mawan’s Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party which has been sailing rather smoothly since its formation in 2002?
Bintulu MP Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing (standing) talking to Internal Trade, Co-operatives and Cosumerism minister. Tiong is the target of a faction in PRS trying to destablize SPDP ahead of its delegates conference expected to be held soon.
I like to think so. Throwing wild accusations at Chinese towkays in Dayak parties as the root of parties’ problems such this is rather shallow. Obviously of not much to help the Dayak community, either.
The problem lies with the kind of leaders that the Dayak elected lately. Many of these politicians get into politics not out of their desire to serve the people who elected them, but an opportunity to accumulate wealth.
A prominent Dayak professor once jokingly told me “he’d not at all surprised if some of them can be bought as low as RM100,000, because with that much money they easily retire after their term end.
