Council of Professors fellow Jeniri Amir says the Sabah and Sarawak coalitions and parties could well be kingmakers in the next general election.
Jeniri Amir says Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim must grant Sabah and Sarawak their rights under the Malaysia Agreement 1963, while Oh Ei Sun says Anwar should devolve some federal power to the East Malaysian states.
“Anwar can no longer rely on Barisan Nasional as their poor run in the polls might continue, so the Borneo bloc will be key Pakatan Harapan in the next general election,” Jeniri told FMT. “Whatever is enshrined in the Malaysia Agreement 1963 should be fulfilled and it is very important for Anwar to narrow socioeconomic gaps between East and West Malaysia,” Jeniri said.
“If the Borneo states want control over education or public health, they will need to cover the costs themselves.
