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.

Time for New Sabah Govt to Prove Critics Wrong
Time for new Sabah govt to prove critics wrong New Straits Times 9.10.2020 By Avila Geraldine - October 9, 2020 @ 10:10am (From left) Dr Romzi Ationg, Phoong Jin Zhe, Phoong Jin Zhe) KOTA KINABALU: The newly-formed Sabah cabinet line-up will be a test for the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) state government to prove its critics wrong and display its capability by bringing progress to the people. Universiti Malaysia Sabah academician Dr Romzi Ationg said following GRS' victory in the recent election, the people were expecting the new state government, led by Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor, to make significant contributions. He said while the new state cabinet reflected diversity and the people's ambitions, it could be improved further by having more young people, women and Chinese representatives. "The rakyat expects them (GRS) to provide significant contributions to the development of Sabah in line with the principles that this is a state rich in diversity. Let's hope the state government can do its best for them. "I expect the state government to continue ensuring and improving political stability, as well as focusing on holistic development," he told the New Straits Times. Romzi, an ethno-politics expert, however, said drawbacks included the lack of Chinese representatives, which could weaken the perception of the state government. This, he said, was something the chief minister must address. "Having no Chinese lawmakers will affect the popularity of the state government, especially among urban voters who are mostly Chinese. "The inclusion of Chinese representatives in the administration can boost the Chinese community's confidence and tackle ethnic relations issues, thus ensuring their support for the state government." On the appointment of state Pas secretary Dr Aliakbar Gulasan as a state assemblyman, Romzi said Aliakbar should be given the opportunity to prove himself.

Journal of Borneo-Kalimantan. Vol 4(1) 2018 JOURNAL OF BORNEO-KALIMANTAN(JBK) What Issues Matter to Local Voters, and Why?: Electoral Politics in Ranau, Sabah Arnold Puyok1* 1Faculty of Social Sciences, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak, 94300 Kota Samarahan, Sarawak *Corresponding author Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This research was an attempt to gauge the electorates‘ opinion on key electoral issues in Ranau, Sabah. It involved 712 respondents from the state constituencies of Kundasang, Paginatan and Karanaan. A survey questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale was distributed to the respondents. The respondents were asked on electoral issues ranging from primordial sentiments, personality politics, patronage politics, regional sentiments, development, economy and governance. The research theoretical framework is based on the sociological, psychological, and economic models of voting behaviour. The research found that race and religious considerations have less influence on the people’s voting decisions and are unlikely to feature prominently in the upcoming elections. However, electoral issues based on regional sentiments related to Sabah’s state of affairs remain very popular among the respondents. The politics of personality formed on the basis of patrimonial, cultural and patronage ties is also evident, suggesting that the role of the candidate is more important than the role of the party in influencing people’s voting decisions. The ruling government is viewed less favourably on the issue of governance and economy, indicating that local and national issues are equally important in shaping Ranau’s, and Sabah’s political landscape. Keywords: Electoral politics, voting behavior, Kadazandusun, Ranau, Sabah INTRODUCTION Sabah is one of the states in the federation of Malaysia.

Musa Squashes Talk of Sabah Cabinet Reshuffle
12/03/2003 Musa squashes talk of Sabah Cabinet reshuffle Joniston Bangkuai WITH Datuk Musa Aman already named as Sabah's next Chief Minister, questions are now being asked if there will be changes in the Cabinet when he takes over the State leadership. Many are eager to know but Musa, who will have the prerogative to decide on his Cabinet line-up, is keeping the answer close to his chest. "I have not yet thought about it. An announcement will be made when the time comes," was Musa's reply when asked to comment. Musa takes over from Datuk Chong Kah Kiat, whose two-year term as Chief Minister ends on March 27, under a unique system of rotating the post among the Muslim Bumiputera, non-Muslim Bumiputera and Chinese. The system was introduced by the Barisan Nasional when it took over the State administration in 1994. Chong is on leave and Musa, who is Sabah Umno liaison committee chief and State Finance Minister, will be acting Chief Minister until he takes his oath of office on March 28. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad announced Musa's appointment as Chief Minister on March 4, putting an end to speculation about Chong's likely successor. Some had interpreted Musa's response as a strong indication of a Cabinet shake-up because as a political observer remarked: "What is there to announce if there are no changes?" The observer claimed a certain Sabah Umno leader had made fre quent trips to Kuala Lumpur to lobby for the CM's post but Musa has denied this.

Kelangsungan Dominasi Barisan Nasional Di Sabah Dalam Pilihan Raya Umum Ke-13 the Continuing Dominance of Barisan Nasional in Sa
Kajian Malaysia, Vol. 32, Supp. 2, 2014, 171–206 KELANGSUNGAN DOMINASI BARISAN NASIONAL DI SABAH DALAM PILIHAN RAYA UMUM KE-13 THE CONTINUING DOMINANCE OF BARISAN NASIONAL IN SABAH IN THE 13TH GENERAL ELECTIONS Asmady Idris1* and Suzalie Mohamad2 1,2International Relations Programme, Faculty of Humanities, Arts and Heritage, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 88400 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia *Corresponding author: [email protected] Artikel ini cuba membincangkan perkembangan politik Sabah dalam Pilihan Raya Umum Ke-13 (PRU13) dengan memfokus kepada kelangsungan dominasi hegemoni Barisan Nasional (BN) dan penambahan kerusi oleh pihak pembangkang di Sabah. Dengan menggunakan tema pembangunan (sebagai strategi politik), BN berjaya mengekalkan penguasaan melebihi dua pertiga dalam kedua-dua kerusi Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) dan Parlimen. Manakala, bagi pihak pembangkang, khasnya gabungan Pakatan Rakyat (PR), walaupun gagal membentuk kerajaan tetapi telah berhasil memenangi beberapa kerusi di kawasan majoriti penduduknya berbangsa Kadazandusun dan Murut (KDM) serta Cina. Kemenangan calon-calon pembangkang ini dikaitkan dengan penjajaan beberapa isu yang berkait rapat dengan autonomi Sabah dalam konteks federalisme, isu pendatang tanpa izin (PATI), tanah adat dan lain-lain lagi. Untuk menganalisis kelangsungan dominasi BN di Sabah, penulis menggunakan kerangka konseptual hegemoni-federalisme dari perspektif Gramsci. Justifikasi gabungan kerangka konseptual ini ialah mengambil kira kepelbagaian etnik di Sabah yang sebahagian besarnya "bersetuju" (consent) untuk menerima unsur dominasi kepimpinan oleh sesebuah parti berasaskan permuafakatan politik terhadap keseluruhan masyarakat dan juga menyerahkan struktur kepimpinan mereka kepada satu sistem pemerintahan pusat yang dinamakan sebagai "Federalisme." Kata kunci: Pilihan Raya Umum Ke-13, hegemoni-federalisme, politik pembangunan, Barisan Nasional, Pakatan Rakyat The article deals with Sabah political developments after the just concluded 13th General Election.
