REMAINING SPDP5 QUITS PARTY

TO PROVE THAT WE ARE NOT TROUBLEMAKERS IN SPDP, WE QUIT THE PARTY TO STOP THE QUARREL ONCE & FOR ALL 

THE year 2012 for Barisan Nasional (BN) Sarawak starts off pretty badly with the remaining members of SPDP5 quitting the party, effective from January 6^th, following the sacking of Marudi  Assemblyman and also SPDP’s former secretary-general Datuk Sylvester Entri Muran on last November 25^th for alleged insubordination.

They are Tasik Biru Assemblyman (party’s senior vice-president) Datuk Peter Nansian Ngusie, Mas Gading MP Datuk Dr Tiki Lafe, Bekenu Assemblyman Rosey Yunus and Batu Danau Assemblyman Paulus Gumbang (all party’s vice presidents).

The press statement on dated January 6^th was signed by all four and was distributed at Nansian’s private office in MJC Batu Kawa near Kuching here stated, “We have steadfastly maintained our principle as we have declared earlier that if they touch any of us, they touch all of us. Now that SPDP has announced the sacking of one of us (Entri), we have no other choice but to quit SPDP as well,” the statement said.

“To prove that we are not troublemakers in the party and not challenging the leadership, we now quit the party and stop the quarrel once and for all and no longer pose a threat to the SPDP top leadership,” further stating they were voted by the people under the BN’s tickets and occupying BN’s seats as its elected representatives, they wanted to concentrate on continue serving the people and leave the fate of the BN top leadership, both to state and Federal leaders.

WE SHALL FORM BN CLUB IN OUR RESPECTIVE CONSTITUENCIES & CONTINUE TO SERVE THE RAKYAT THROUGH BN

“Therefore, we shall form BN Club in our respective constituency as a vehicle and an interim measure to continue to serve the rakyat through BN and the BN government taking directions from the BN top leadership and operating within the BN concept and framework.”

Since the walkout in 2010, several meetings were held between the party’s top leadership and G5 as an act of, what the group said, reconciliation however, the group  claimed that the meetings had been fruitless plus they were baffled by the party’s action in forming a Disciplinary Committee to take action against them.

“Secondly, why strip us of all party posts just barely four days after the show-cause letters were issued to us to respond in 30 days? Thirdly, why has the party stopped supporting our respective constituencies since the last two years?, Fourthly, why has the party kept going around our constituencies making hostile and unkind remarks and statements against us?,” said the statement.
