WHAT LIES AHEAD FOR SPDP IN 2012 AFTER ITS' 2011 INTERNAL CRISIS (PART I)

ITS PRESIDENT TAN SRI DATUK SRI WILLIAM MAWAN WAS PUT TO THE EXTREMEST TEST IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS
MAWAN'S LEADERSHIP HAD BEEN TESTED TO THE LIMIT IN 2011
THE Year 2011 left some deep and nasty scars in Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party's (SPDP) political history particularly for its President Tan Sri Datuk Sri William Mawan as within the past twelve months, he and SPDP were put to the test to the extremest level ever.

Mawan's leadership was directly or in-directly challenged in many occasions by a group of SPDP's members, some were the party's own high supreme council members and office's bearers later known as "SPDP5" who even attempted to topple him from his Presidency post.

The SPDP5, led by SPDP's Vice-President and also Marudi State Assemblyman Datuk Sylvester Entri Entri at the early stages started distancing themselves from the party by not attending its Supreme Council meetings and continued "isolating" themselves from the party.

As Mawan tried to confine the matter internally by treating the matter as only a mere misunderstanding among their party, SDPD5 started launching attacks against their President,   and even to the extend of challenging and ridiculing his leadership through a series of press statements.

Many may are assuming that Mawan is a weak and a slow leader when he did not react quickly taking action accordingly to the party's constitution to counter the SPDP5's crisis and brushing off their claims of him not "fit" to fill the party's President's shoes.
FOR THOSE WHO ASSUMES MAWAN AS A WEAK & SLOW LEADER TO REACT AGAINST SPDP5, HIS CALM APPROACH ACTUALLY SHOWS THE TRUE QUALITY OF A  LEADER BY NOT TAKING DRASTIC ACTIONS
Little did those with the assumptions above knows that Mawan's reaction on the matter actually shows the true quality in a leader by being calm, professional and keeping his patient through the crisis and most importantly he never "gave-up" on SPDP5 til the end but instead, continues offering them rooms for negotiation.

Despite of the Presidents' humbleness and kind gesture, tolerating to their antics, SPDP5 never backed down even an inch and their alleged attempt to sabotage his visit to Ulu Teru, Baram near Miri was the final straw giving Mawan no other option except to take disciplinary action against the group.

The only logical reason prompting Mawan reacting differently or oppositely from his previous   approach to the crisis is not due to the "persuasions & poison-spreading" by the people around him but, he will not compromise when the crisis starts disrupting the party's unity in addition, factions in the party were obviously felt with some agreeing or against SDPD5's actions.


This later led Mawan to hold an emergency meeting at his house at Stapok near Kuching here on October 20 and among the main issue discussed were whether to postpone Ulu Teru visit which was scheduled by the end of the month or otherwise due to “security aspect” as it also was said that the President was threaten if he proceeds with the program.
