Autonomy For Sarawak Just Fantasy Of PKR's Mat Jenin - Rosnah

KOTA KINABALU, Dec 15 (Bernama) -- The Puteri Umno chief has described Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) vice-president Azmin Ali's statement that Sarawak would be given autonomy, should the opposition come into power, as a "fantasy of Mat Jenin who could not keep his feet on the ground".
Datuk Rosnah Abdul Rashid Shirlin said the statement was only intended to mislead the public, especially the people of Sarawak.
In Malay folklore, Mat Jenin is depicted as a dreamer.
Rosnah said PKR leaders were willing to do anything, including promising the moon and the stars, just to regain support after the party was deluged with problems, including the crisis of confidence for the existing leadership.
"The promises made by the opposition leaders, including to give autonomy to Sarawak, are absurd.
"Everyone knows Sarawak is rich in mineral and natural resources, which will not be disposed off easily by PKR as it had been waiting to take control of such a rich state," she said in a statement here Wednesday.
Thus, Rosnah advised Azmin and the opposition leadership, especially PKR, to stop dreaming of something that would never become theirs.

tunku : they (pakatan) will promise anything just to fool the sarawakian to vote for them.they know that sarawak is a rich state, if they can get the state that means the will have lots of cash at their disposable and not for the sarawakian.we can see what's happening in selangor,penang,kedah and kelantan.the revenue of those states is decreasing. what the sarawakian should know is that, sarawak is huge state and to develop the state needs good management and lots of resources.the pakatan will never be able to increase the income and they will spend more than they can earn. sarawak will be in huge deficit.do not jeopardise your future.BN is still the best government for sarawak.
