defunct USNO for what?

13Friday

JK's Digest No. 25 of July 2007 (204 of 2007) USNO means United Suluk/Sabah National Organisation?

Why suddenly this is given prominience despite UMNO is in Sabah? (see the funny article below).

(you all know how defunct USNO was controlled by Suluks)

Quote "Kelab Usno will function more as a pressure group like that of Umno's overseas clubs."

Why such a need? Is that not a duplication? Why so much politicking when the result is nihilism in Sabah? Who would fund them?

Quote: "Abdullah Sani said the club was essentially made up of former Usno leaders who had joined Umno in 1990."

That is more insanity. It was reported that some USNO members never joined UMNO, and why now? So there is an under current in this strategic move.

Strictly UMNO is an illegal party with lots of members who are fake citizens or now some call them "legitimate foreigners".

I had called - Sabah UMNO - to go home. So it is not to be surprise that UMNO members in Sabah would join USNO anytime now.

If we strip the Sabah UMNO of those illegal members, then Sabah UMNO would just collapse.

Also UMNO cannot continue to give the kind of financial attention like that in Peninsula Malaysia to Sabah's desperate needs as Sabah is very behind the national trend. Of course UMNO's survival is in Peninsula Malaysia, and if it is to neglect Peninsula trying to please Sabah in a scenario of tight financial resources, its support in Peninsula could be jeopardised. Like the Dacing - Balance - the symbol of the BN, it is lopsided in favour of Peninsula and the leaders know that hence troubles are brewing. We want to query what good is it now that UMNO is in Sabah as a Federal based party not in the position to do any good for Sabah. Even if they need to do justice for Sabah to catch up with the Peninsula they may need to incur RM100 billion in one shot to make up for the neglect of decades. UMNO or BN also need to do similar thing with Sarawak and how much of that is needed is your guess. So while some say the bubble is burst, it is actually the broken Dacing or Balance.

UMNO Sabah is just not sustainable with the many 'bullets' on target at it with my many Police Reports on its existence in Sabah. Every one knows that.

The other reason is that the voters may be turning away from the Federal based BN parties for its failure so clear for all to see in the 44th year. So the option of USNO is now considered for a succession to UMNO in Sabah.
The worst to happen is that UMNO itself is done with nationally like in 1988. The same Tengku (Semangat 46) who did that in 1988 was seen in the happy company of Tun Dr Mahathir's birthday bash recently.

The other sign is that the Cross on the Sigah worn by Semangat 46's President in Sabah at the 1990's State Election when PBS stabbed BN in the back brought UMNO into Sabah. Recently the UMNO leaders in Sabah were wearing the white shirt with the Cross across their breasts. That is the sign for them to go back to Peninsula. The other sign is that at least 3 persons by the name of Abdul Rahman (Founder of UMNO/first Prime Minister) died suddenly in Sabah in mysteriously ways.

DAILY EXPRESS NEWS
Bid for Usno revival as a pressure group
Kota Kinabalu: Several former Assemblymen have formed Kelab Usno (United Sabah National Organisation), named after the party that ran Sabah for nine years before its ouster by Berjaya.
The club headed by Datu Abdul Salam Datu Harun, the younger brother of Sabah's founding father Tun Datu Mustapha Datu Harun, submitted its registration application form to the Prime Minister on June 4.
"We spent two-and-a-half hours with Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and it was a friendly meeting," said the club's pro tem committee secretary Abdullah Sani Abdul Salleh.
He said that under Section 70 of the Societies Act, the club could apply to dispense with the Registrar of Societies (ROS) requirements.
Kelab Usno will function more as a pressure group like that of Umno's overseas clubs.
"The Prime Minister said that he would look into our application and we are hopeful that it would be approved," said Abdullah Sani, the former Usno Assemblyman for Semporna.
Apart from Datu Abdul Salam, the former four-term Bengkoka assemblyman, others who met the Prime Minister were the club's pro tem deputy president Said Senang, formerly Assemblyman for Merotai, and pro tem vice-presidents Salleh Janan (Sekong), Pengiran Ibrahim Dewa (Bongawan) and Johari Mohd Dun (Sipitang).
Usno was disbanded by its founder, the late Tun Datu Mustapha Datu Harun just after the 1990 general elections, paving the way for Umno to absorb Usno members.
It was then Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's response to the then ruling Kadazandusun party, the Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) headed by former chief minister Datuk Pairin Kitingan, which had quit the Barisan coalition on the eve of the 1990 elections.
Abdullah Sani said the club was essentially made up of former Usno leaders who had joined Umno in 1990.
"Those of us in the club were from the faction of former Usno members and leaders in Umno who had supported the late Tun Ghafar Baba and Datuk Seri Abdullah in the 1993 party elections," he said.
In 1993, Ghafar, the incumbent Umno deputy president, had defended his post against challenger Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, while Datuk Seri Abdullah contested one of the vice-president's posts.
Following the defeat of Ghafar's team, Abdullah Sani said that the former Usno leaders found themselves "out in the cold."
"Today we are coming back together and the intention of forming Kelab Usno is not to make it a political party and challenge Barisan Nasional.
"Rather we are here to reunite former Usno members, whether they are inactive or in the opposition, and marshal their support for Umno and Barisan," he said.
The club's pro tem committee comprised leaders from all 25 parliamentary constituencies. Abdullah Sani said Kelab Usno was confident that it could sign up 100,000 members within a month if its registration application was approved.
"We can confidently specify this figure because Usno had 300,000 members before it was disbanded to make way for Umno in Sabah," he said.
