As I have mentioned, the people do not vote for the symbol per se - or in other words they may vote for other reasons as well. In Kedah - The Malays are fed up with UMNO lies, in Kelantan - the people voted in PAS as vengeance for only having a one seat majority last time around, in Penang, Perak and Selangor - they voted against anything to do with BN, as development is not an issue there.
We are talking about Sabah here. We cannot expect the same underlying reasons to graph out the voter trends there. The problems there are real and the BN reps really are voicing out against the illegal immigrants etc. What I can see is that they have now realised the fragility of the BN and are now speaking out their frustrations seeing that they have BN now by the horns.
Reverting to the topic being discussed here, and based on my earlier posting, I feel that though we could have obtained federal mandate from a more respectable mode, we cannot and should not let this opportunity go to waste.
So long as no money or pecuniary gratification is offered, and these people agree to the Malaysian Economic Agenda by Pakatan Rakyat and absolve themselves of inconsistent BN ideologies, they should not be refused membership. Repentance is never a sin, and to disallow the people of Sabah their rights is not something we are ready to do - though BN is already doing it.
