GE14: a Victory for Barisan Nasional in Sarawak
ISSUE: 2018 No. 27 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 7 May 2018 GE14: A Victory for Barisan Nasional in Sarawak Lee Poh Onn* EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Sarawak will continue to be Barisan Nasional’s safe deposit role in the 14th General Elections (GE 14) on 9 May 2018. The 2016 Sarawak state elections suggest that the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition is likely to increase its number of parliamentary seats this time round from 25 to 27 seats. Sarawak BN’s promotion of “Sarawak for Sarawakians” and the many pro-Sarawak measures that it has taken in recent years will work in its favour on 9 May. * Lee Poh Onn is Senior Fellow at ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. My thanks to Francis E. Hutchinson and Ooi Kee Beng for their guidance and to Pearlyn Pang for drawing the map on Sarawak. 1 ISSUE: 2018 No. 27 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION Malaysia’s general elections on May 9 promise to return many interesting results. Most analysts seem to expect the Barisan Nasional (BN) to be returned to power. For the opposition coalition, Pakatan Harapan (PH), only a huge swing among voters to its side, a so-called “Malay tsunami” will give it a chance of winning. Traditionally, political observers have labelled Sabah and Sarawak as ‘safe deposit’ states of BN. In past parliamentary elections, both states have contributed huge numbers of seats to allow BN to stay in power. This time around, Sarawak is again expected to perform this ‘safe deposit’ role. In fact, the question seems to be, will Sarawak BN under the new Chief Minister Abang Johari secure even more parliamentary seats this year? In the last general elections, held in 2013, BN won 133 of the 222 parliamentary seats.

'Tsunami Cina' Malaysian Insider July 9 , 2013 Oleh Yiswaree Palansa
Pemimpin komponen BN tak sekata keputusan PRU13 sebagai ‘tsunami Cina’ Malaysian Insider July 9 , 2013 Oleh Yiswaree Palansamy dan Jennifer Gomez Kunci untuk mengkaji keputusan pilihan raya umum ke-13 (PRU13) menggambarkan hanya orang Cina mengundi pembangkang hingga mendominasi undi popular. Itu yang digembar-gembur media arus perdana terhadap masyarakat Cina yang digelar mereka sebagai mengkhianati Barisan Nasional (BN). Akan tetapi, apakah ahli parti komponen BN bersetuju? Benarkah ada tsunami Cina atau tidak? Tentulah ada dan apa salahnya ungkapan itu," tanya Ahli Parlimen Kota Belud, Datuk Abdul Rahman Dahlan sebelum cepat-cepat menyatakan mereka tiada niat jahat sebalik ungkapan itu. "Benar, orang Melayu dan India juga undi pembangkang tapi ia tidak seketara orang Cina. "Dalam sesetengah kawasan, hingga 96 peratus orang Cina mengundi pembangkang," katanya pada forum di Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Malaysia (UIAM) yang menyimpulkan kegagalan BN akibat tindak balas pengundi bandar, bukannya tsunami Cina. Kata Rahman, makna tsunami ialah sesuatu perubahan yang besar dengan merujuk bencana di Banda Aceh sebagai contoh dan menganggap ia berlaku dalam perubahan undi Cina. Ahli Parlimen Masjid Tanah, Mas Ermieyati Samsudin juga percaya ia sememangnya tsunami Cina terutama di lokasi tertentu, hasil kempen intensif pembangkang dan isu yang mereka canang. Namun, Menteri Di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Joseph Kurup mengakui tiada adil untuk mengatakan ia tsunami Cina kerana bukan undi Cina sahaja beralih ke pembangkang Timbalan Menteri Pertahanan, Datuk Abd Rahim Bakri yang juga Ahli Parlimen Kudat juga menyifatkan keputusan PRU13 sebagai tsunami Malaysia. "Bukan tsunami Cina," katanya yang mengakui sebahagian rakyat terus bersama BN walaupun tidak gembira dengan beberapa isu. Ahli Parlimen Mambong, Datuk Dr James Dawos Mamit, pula menyatrakan tidak adil untuk menyatakan keputusan PRU13 sebagai tsunami mana-mana kaum.
