ANALYSIS OF WHY DAP SARAWAK IS DOING WHAT IT IS DOING.
The REAL reason why DAP Sarawak is going all out to make a stand on HUDUD (and in the process casting aspersions on PKR Sarawak and PAS Sarawak) is to HIDE ITS OWN WEAKNESSES.
DAP Sarawak is allegedly facing a crisis of NO CONFIDENCE from its grassroots supporters and voters in the urban areas. Many of the young and newly elected DAP YBs in Sarawak are allegedly NOT PERFORMING.
On the one hand, who can blame them as they are all young with little experience, but on the other hand, their senior leaders should groom and train them and not leave them to their own devices and expect them to deliver without proper guidance.
The voters in their constituencies who voted for them are allegedly pissed off with these DAP YBs who are either allegedly not performing or allegedly making blunders after blunders in their kawasans.
In order to win back the support of its grassroots supporters and voters in the urban areas, DAP Sarawak has allegedly done the classic political move - DISTRACT THE DISGRUNTLED VOTERS BY GIVING THEM A HOT ISSUE = HUDUD.
DAP Sarawak is now allegedly playing the politically explosive card that only DAP Sarawak can SAVE Sarawak from HUDUD. "DAP mahu jadi HERO di mata orang orang Cina."
What DAP Sarawak fails to realise is that such arrogance and political trickery is not lost on the very politically mature urban Chinese voters. In coffeeshops all over Sarawak, the urban Chinese are allegedly laughing at DAP Sarawak leaders for allegedly trying to pull the wool over their eyes.
DAP Sarawak is not politically naive. They know they need to be in PR to form the Government. But for now, they are playing the BLAME GAME to make PKR and PAS look small.
They are also twisting the facts about seat negotiations and claiming Dayak seats where publicly they say they have support but in truth and on the ground they have little support in the Dayak areas.
A simple comparison of the 2011 State Election results where PKR stood in the rural areas and the 2013 General Election results where DAP insisted on standing in PKR rural seats show that in every seat where PKR had stood in 2011, PKR got MORE VOTES than DAP when DAP stood in the same seats in GE13.
This clearly shows DAP did far worse than PKR in GE13! Figures do not lie and the figures do not favour DAP. And yet DAP wants to claim these rural seats where PKR had stood previously and done a better job?
DAP Sarawak is only playing the blame game so that it can be seen as the HERO and at the same time negotiate for more rural seats within PR.
The Rakyat is not stupid.
