Staying calm and be rationale in weathering current political crisis

The local media fraternity had seek my personal views and comments on the current political crisis  but I have expressed my confidence for the top leadership of Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS), in which the PBB is a component party, will make a wise decision in facing the storm.

I have mentioned that we still supports the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government led by Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to ensure that the federal government would remain stable. There will be no “frogging” in GPS and its leaders will stay true to their support for the sake of Malaysia’s stability. When we (GPS) give our support to PN before this, it was purely for the sake of stability and we will still hold onto that. I believe that GPS leaders are rationale.

I have also expressed hope for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah and the palace, would not be dragged into the crisis. Let the palace remain as the place where the government seeks advice and guidance and not to be dragged into personal issues as it is really not good for Malaysia.
I had also asserted that GPS leaders will neither “be like frogs jumping here and there” nor will they be influenced by political events in Peninsular Malaysia. I’m sure PN will study what is good for Malaysia and proceed from there. That is how I foresee how our leaders will be making the decision. We (GPS) will not be dragged into all this polemic in Peninsular Malaysia. 
On Sarawak side, GPS will “wait and see” for the time being as things unfold in Putrajaya, but the Sarawak government will always ensure stability of the nation including the State in terms of politics and economy.
On whether there will be a meeting to discuss GPS-led government’s stance on this matter, our Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg will know what to do.Today is also his birthday. Let him cherish his birthday first, but definitely he will be contacted by leaders of component parties.
