Malaysia's Political Opposition and the Sabah Crisis

I hurriedly wrote these lines last night to my political analyst friend based in Malaysia re my frustrations with the opposition coalition, Pakatan Rakyat (PR), in dealing with the Sabah crisis:

" I'm just so frustrated with the PR! The opposition has simply followed the 'nationalist' and 'jingoist' discourse and policy of Najib's UMNO/BN with regard to the Sabah crisis! 

No condemnation on the opposition's part, or at least call for human rights, particularly the protection of the IDPs, refugees, and other civilians. 

• People's Justice (Anwar's PKR)??? Justice for the peoples in Sabah - the Sabahans, IPs, and other diasporas and migrants!  

• Democratic Action (Lim Kit Siang's DAP)??? Condemn inhumanity and injustice in the Israeli-style airstrikes, US-style terrorist tagging, ISA-style policing, and the authoritarian-style news blackout!  

• Pan-Islamic (Abdul Hadi Awang's PAS)??? Islam means peace; but the government security forces are attacking and killing fellow Muslims! "

My friend's reply: 

" The Sabah situation is terrible in and of itself, but as in most wars it has brought the worst out of the political class including, as you say, the majority of Pakatan leaders. "
