The Fall of Warisan in Sabah's Election
ISSUE: 2021 No. 8 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 29 January 2021 The Fall of Warisan in Sabah’s Election: Telltale Signs, Causes and Salient Issues Arnold Puyok* President of the Sabah Heritage Party (Warisan) Shafie Apdal (centre), shows his inked finger after casting his vote at a polling station during state elections in Semporna, a town in Malaysia's Sabah state on Borneo island, on September 26, 2020. Photo: AFP * Arnold Puyok is Senior Lecturer in Politics and Government Studies at the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS). 1 ISSUE: 2021 No. 8 ISSN 2335-6677 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • Public opinion polls conducted prior to the 16th Sabah state election provided telltale signs of Warisan’s loss of support and impending electoral defeat. • Warisan’s fall from power was mostly due to the party’s inability to address the priority needs of the largely rural Muslim Bumiputera and Kadazandusun voters. • Research fieldwork during the election campaign and post-election analysis reveal that rural Sabah voters are more concerned with bread-and-butter issues, while their partisan loyalties are not steadfast. They are willing to trade their political support for programmes and policies that yield tangible benefits. • The new state government led by Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) will face the twin challenges of appeasing increasingly demanding voters and delivering public goods effectively. • As GRS navigates these politically uncertain times, its future in Sabah looks unpromising. 2 ISSUE: 2021 No. 8 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION In the recent Sabah state election, GRS (Gabungan Rakyat Sabah), comprising BN (Barisan Nasional), PN (Perikatan Nasional) and PBS (Parti Bersatu Sabah), won 38 seats in the state legislative assembly, prevailing over a Warisan-led coalition by a six-seat margin. -

SE A Women in Politics and Decision - M a k i n g Expanding Democracy, Enlarging Women’s Spaces A Report on Malaysia by Maria Chin Abdullah INTRODUCTION In Malaysia, women’s participation is being challenged to its fullest. More women are educated, forming 47.1% of female labor force participation. Those employed are mostly in the service industries and other sectors such as manufacturing (30.1%), wholesale, retail trade, hotels and restaurant, and agriculture (15.9%). Women today consist of almost half of the population and exceed boys in the tertiary sector by a ratio of 80:20. Despite these achievements, however, women’s labor force engagement remains confined to “traditional women’s occupations” such as those of primary school teachers, data entry clerks and other clerical jobs. -

Why Governments Fail to Capture Economic Rent
BIBLIOGRAPHICINFORMATION Why Governments Fail to Capture Economic Rent: The Unofficial Appropriation of Rain Forest Title Rent by Rulers in Insular Southeast Asia Between 1970 and 1999 Source http://www.geocities.com/davidbrown_id/Diss/DWB.Fintext.doc Author 1 Brown, David Walter Author 2 NA Author 3 NA Publication/Conference Unpublished Doctoral Dissertation Edition NA Document Type Dissertation CPI Primary Subject East Malaysia CPI Secondary Subject Political economy; Sabah ; Sarawak; Geographic Terms Sabah; Sarawak Abstract NA CentreforPolicyInitiatives(CPI) PusatInitiatifPolisi http://www.cpiasia.org 1 Chapter 1 Introduction The world’s tropical rain forests are important socially and environmentally as well as by virtue of their contributions to economic growth. As these forests are logged, their social values as generators of rural incomes and their environmental services as biodiversity reserves, carbon sinks, soil reserves, and watersheds tend to diminish. Despite these facts, most governments in the tropics are unable to resist logging these forests in favor of national economic objectives, including: creation of a forest industrial sector, higher employment, positive balance of payments, and increased government revenues. However, given the high economic stakes that can be obtained from their forests, it is seems counterintuitive that tropical governments rarely succeed in optimally harnessing government revenue from this valuable natural resource. This staggering loss of revenue to developing countries obviously has important implications for economic development. Timber revenue could be used, for example, to finance the kind of strategic industrial policies that allow the high performing Asian economies to achieve high levels of economic growth. This dissertation argues that states with rain forests are often unable to collect optimal revenue from the massive profit earned by timber companies that harvest state forests because this profit already has a hidden destination. -
