Sabah-The Wild wild East

The Perfect Storm?

Just when you think that it is time to let your fix deposit ride the next interest-bearing period when a potential hazard appears on the horizon.

Ukin and Bumburing has now thrown in the towel  and left Barisan.

Will this be a sign that the flood-gates of an all Sabah conflagration is being let loose as the inaction of Putrajaya on Sabah's issue of being overwhelmed by Mycard carrying foreigners since the time of the Mahathir era?

Three scenarios come to mind.

First, a storm in a ta-cup-contained and nothing more.

Second scenario-attrition starts and the disenchanted especially the old guards up the ante and leave as well to join the new front.

Final scenario-massive shift in the template where the fears in BN will mount as Putrajaya may slip through their fingers.

A November date for the 13th GE?

Unlikely as the monsoon floods may also affect BN's chances.

So, given this, it is back to the drawing board and perhaps Najib will stay the entire term until April 2013.
