Ibi Uding Dream to Stand As Candidate under PKR Flag In N25-Balai Ringin Tattered?
The PKR P202-Sri Aman had yesterday successfully held its election to select it new committee members. The election was very important for PKR P202-Sri Aman Branch in its preparation for the coming state election which is due by next year.
The election which was scheduled earlier from 10.00am until 4.00pm was rescheduled to from 11.00am until 5.00pm. No objection was received from the candidates.
In the election, about 23 positions were contested as follows:-
(1) Branch Head
(2) Deputy Branch Head
(2) 21 Committee Members.
For the Deputy Branch head, the contest was won by Moses Tait anak Libok. For the Branch head, the contest was won by Jimmy Donald with the majority of 8 votes ahead of his nearest rival Ibi Uding. The overall result was as follows :-
(1) Saudara Cubbold John Lusoi - 10 Votes
(2) Ibi Uding - 76 Votes
(3) Jimmy Donald - 84 Votes
Overall Result
Geographically, most of Cubbold John and Ibi Uding supporters came from Balai Ringin Area to the north until Lachau Bazaar, where as for Jimmy Donald, most of his supporter came from Selepong to Pakit.
In term of the attendance, only 170 or less than 40 % ( percents) of party members turned up on that day.
Cubbold John was the protem Chairman for P202-Sri Aman and subsequently selected as the Chairman during the P202-Sri Aman branch election held on 24th April 2010
Jimmy Donald Joined PKR Way after Cubbold John....
Jimmy Donald joined PKR and PKR P202-Sri Aman Branch on 17 November 2010 after he was dropped and replaced by Masir Kujat by BN in the 13th GE. When told that Jimmy Donald won the election, the news did not surprise me because Jimmy Donald is a very experienced politician, and had learned a lot from the PBDS crisis.
Based on Bukittunggal.com observation, he had started the strategy to win PKR P202-Sri Aman branch head since June 2010. The man behind his strategy was his son, Leon Jimmy Donald. who had started to recruit its members from Empaling, Ubah, Gayau, Limau. Most of the members recruited by Leon were aligned to Cubbold, but in the election, most of these DAP members had voted for Jimmy Donald.
Recruitment Drive by DAP in Simpang Ubah and along Sg Tenggang-Simpang Punda had caused Saudara Cubbold to lose his Ketua Cabang Post!
Candidate With Lack of EQ
When speaking to party members that presented during the announcement of the election result, Ibi Uding contemplated that judging from the result of the election, she was the most suitable candidate to represent PKR in N25-Balai Ringin, for the coming state election to challenge YB Snowdan Lawan from PRS . But based on the overall result of the election, as most of the post contested had won by those who aligned to Jimmy Donald, Ibi Uding aim to stand as PKR candidate in N25-Balai Ringin may just remained as a dream.
Non-Jimmy Supporters to stay outside without refreshment..PKR ought to treat all members equally....
Election Officer...To ensure that Election is done properly....SYABAS!
One of the party member exercising his right going into the polling room!
Peeping through the Window to follow closely a vote counting!
Based on Bukittunggal.Com personal observation on Ibi behaviour, on top of being errogant, she is lacked of leadership quality especially in emotional intelligence (EQ). This was judging from how she confronted Saudara Cubbold during the election. If the party choose to nominate her as a candidate in Balai Ringin, the party will not only risk of losing the election, but the party will be divided further, thus will end party struggle in Balai Ringin.
"I was sitting here when Ibi supporters distributing the mineral water. I was not given the drink because I am Saudara Cubbold supporter", said Francis Uli, at the same time pointing at the empty bottles of mineral water scattered on the verandah near the chair where he sat down.
Empty mineral water bottles scattered all over the verandah, believed to be left by Ibi supporters....."I was not given the drink because
I supported saudara Cubbold", said Francis Uli when met by Bukittunggal. Is this the culture that we would like to practice in PKR? One must remember that we all are belonged to the same party!
N25-Balai Ringin is one of the Iban majority area that has been eyed by PKR. If PKR want to win Balai Ringin in the coming state election, it must not rely on the candidate which has no leadership skills especially in the EQ. Do not choose the candidate just because the party need to achieve the target of 30 percents of the candidate are women, my future and that of the Iban in Balai Ringin is at stake.
Ibi is a desperado who will do what ever it takes to become candidate for PKR in N25 Balai Ringin. In her speech delivered immediately after the result of the election was announced, Ibi said that based on the result of the election whereby she secured the second highest votes, no doubt that she was the perfect candidate to represent PKR in N25-Balai Ringin!
Saudara Cubbold..LAWAN TETAP LAWAN
To saudara Cubbold and the rest who had lost in the election, please remember this :-
" Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning (Churchill, 1942)
Please remember also let's move on, and LAWAN TETAP LAWAN!
