In the latest political shake-up, Ong Kian Ming warns that DAP risks becoming the “MCA 2.0,” with its relationship with the Chinese community at a breaking point. What led to this decline in trust, and what can DAP do to regain support? Watch the full analysis to understand the stakes for the next elections!

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 16, 2025: With the DAP and Pakatan Harapan (PH) becoming more and more unreliable to multi-racial Malaysians, especially the Chinese voters, a posting has appeared on Facebook calling for the birth of a new political party - Malaysia First Movement.

And the post hopes that former PKR deputy president and Reformasi (Reformation) icon Rafizi Ramli will read this:

“I hope he will at least give it a thought. If nothing else, I am sure it will be food for thought.”

And the root of the problem is Malaysia’s 10th Prime Minister (PMX) Anwar Ibrahim and his political hidden agenda.

Consider the following facts:

> WHY did Anwar used his daughter Nurul Izzah to get rid of his deputy Rafizi and his loyal reformists from the PKR leadership, embracing politics of nepotism and cronyism ala-Umno;

> WHY is Anwar treating Umno better than his PKR, eg in Penang, an Umno man was appointed Penang Yang di-Pertua Negeri (Governor). Is there no one in PKR capable to be appointed Governor or a professional who has contributed immensely to rakyat dan negara (people and country); and

> SUPPORT for Umno in the last general election (GE15) plummeted to a meagre 26.7%, a historic electoral low for the racist and religious bigoted party.

With Umno being rejected by Malaysians, especially the Malays, why is Anwar “so faithful” to Umno?

The only sane conclusion is that his hidden agenda is to return to Umno and lead it. PKR can be dissolved without hesitation.

And the DAP is digging its political grave deeper and deeper by portraying itself as a political lapdog of Anwar - giving it the image of transforming itself into MCA 2.0 (View above video clip).

With 40 seats in the 222-seat Parliament, the second biggest party after the Taliban-like PAS, multi-racial Malaysians, especially the Chinese, cannot fathom or accept DAP’s meek and muted politics in the so-called Madani Unity Government (UG).

And why is UG (read as Anwar) so tolerant with the racial and religious bigots from Umno and PAS, allowing them to spew venom freely without any enforcement action?

Clearly, Anwar is keeping his options open to work with PAS and from within Umno, if and when he leads it.

Yes! The Abim and Umno DNA in Anwar is shaping Anwar’s hidden political agenda indeed.

No News Is Bad News reproduces below articles that are worth pondering for Malaysian voters:

Socio-political Issues (Malaysia)

Therealnehruism

We already have a Sabah First movement.

We also have a Sarawak First movement.

Considering that, shouldn't the time now be ripe for a Malaysia First movement?

If anybody has not noticed, the federation is unravelling.

The people of Sabah and Sarawak increasingly see themselves as Sabahans and Sarawakians, rather than Malaysians. The people in Semenanjung are also struggling to see ourselves as Malaysian first. Most of us prefer to be Malay, Chinese, or Indian according to our racial identities, rather than according to our national identity, and this racial sentiment has been intensifying, instead of relaxing in recent times.

Considering everything, isn't now the perfect time for a Malaysia First movement to enter our political landscape.

When Najib launched his “Satu Malaysia” slogan once upon a time ago, he might have had something like a Malaysia First movement in mind, but the trouble was that it was probably badly timed. Most Malaysians did not yet feel that there were “two Malaysias” or “three Malaysias” for us to understand what “one Malaysia” meant, or why it was necessary.

But a Malaysia First ideology might be well-timed now, because the federation visibly needs an ideology that can keep it together.

The Sabah First and Sarawak First ideologies—like it or not—are tearing the federation apart.

I am not saying that I don't understand or appreciate the rationale or justifications behind the Sabah First and Sarawak First ideologies. I do understand why Sabahans and Sarawakians are pushing these ideas. There is historical grievance, there is inequality, and there is the perception of colonization by Peninsular elites that might have moved them to launch these movements But regardless of whether the ideology is grounded in justice or merit, its practical effect is that it is causing the federation to unravel.

Just look at the recently concluded Sabah election where the Sabah First ideology took center stage—it wiped out all Putrajaya-based parties in Sabah.

And in the upcoming Sarawak election, I will bet RM1.30 that the Sarawak First ideology will also take center stage and demolish the Putrajaya-based parties in Sarawak in a manner equal to, or even exceeding, what happened in Sabah.

Given how powerful Sabah First and Sarawak First have become, I truly believe that it is time for a Malaysia First ideology to burst onto the scene—not to deny regional rights, but to counterbalance the centripetal forces pulling the country apart.

What would a Malaysia First ideology stand for?

Honestly, I don’t know. If I know anything about it, it is just this two things.

I don't think that it should resemble anything like the old “Malaysia for Malaysians” idea of DAP or PAP or Najib's “Satu Malaysia”, where you open everything from clinics to supermarkets to give cash handouts, to make Malaysians feel more Malaysians.

Secondly, I think that the Malaysia First idea should probably take a leaf from the Sabah First and Sarawak First concept—except that rather than being limited to those states, it would encompass the entire federation. Such an ideology might even gain early traction in Sabah and Sarawak because it could act as a counterforce to the hyper-local nationalism emerging there. Right now, Sabah First and Sarawak First have no ideological competitor. A Malaysia First narrative could be the first meaningful pushback—not by dismissing regional identity, but by offering a bigger national identity that includes it.

The federation may be fraying, but I am quite sure there are many Malaysians who are sentimentally attached to being Malaysian, and they would welcome a Malaysia First project that defends this identity.

As for who should lead such a party?

I think it should be Rafizi.

Why? Simply because there is no one else who fits the role better—and because Rafizi himself probably needs somewhere to land, now that he seems to have burned bridges with PKR.

I think Rafizi is oddly suitable to champion a Malaysia First ideology particularly because he is not tied to any other identity.

If you notice, Rafizi's identity if fluid and dynamic.

He is Malay, but he is not strongly tied to Malay ethnonationalism.

He is Muslim, but not strongly defined by religious politics.

Judging from his relationship with PKR, I doubt that he has any deep partisan inclination either.

He is part-entrepreneurial , yet he carries a whiff of socialist traits.

He is not fully for the government, although he is a part of the government, and he is somewhat of an opposition, although he is not a part of the opposition.

The fact that you can’t pin down Rafizi’s identity in a way, makes him an ideal symbol of a Malaysian identity.

If Rafizi were to declare that he is Malaysian First, I truly think that many people will believe him, simply because he doesn’t comfortably fit into any other identities. .

Shakespeare once wrote: some men are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

Rafizi may not have been born or groomed to champion a Malaysian First ideology, but given the timing, he might be the one that is thrust into that role by the tides of history.

If the federation is unravelling…

If Rafizi needs to go somewhere but he has nowhere else to go…

If no one will doubt him if he claims to be a Malaysian First…

If Sabah First and Sarawak First have succeeded so greatly that they have inadvertently set the stage for Malaysia First…

If Malaysians who love their national identity are waiting for someone to defend it…

If Malaysia First can give Rafizi a pathway to the top of the country—a pathway he currently does not have and could use to fulfill his own personal ambitions and aspirations…..

Then the real question may not be why should he start such a party, but why shouldn’t he?

Not every path forward is chosen out of desire.

Sometimes, the path forward is chosen because no other path exists.

And if destiny has already laid a road before us, perhaps the wisest thing is simply to walk it—as far as it will take us, in the best manner that we can.

I hope Rafizi will read this.

I hope he will at least give it a thought.

If nothing else, I am sure it will be food for thought.

PRU15

Sokongan Melayu Kepada UMNO Jatuh Kepada 26.7% Sahaja Di Ambang PRU15, Terburuk Dalam Sejarah

November 18, 2022 1 Comment

 

Berikut adalah tahap sokongan pengundi sehari sebelum pengundian PRU15 berdasarkan kaji selidik terkini melalui kaedah panggilan telefon interactive voice response (IVR).

Pengundi ditanya gabungan mana akan diundi dalam PRU15 ini.

Kaji selidik dijalankan pada hari Rabu (16 November) dan Khamis (17 November) melibatkan 1,226 pengundi berdaftar di seluruh negara yang dipilih mengikut strata pengundi berdasarkan jantina, umur, kaum, pecahan bandar/desa, latar belakang ekonomi dan seterusnya diberikan pemberat mengikut jumlah pengundi bagi setiap strata di seluruh negara.

Margin kesilapan (margin of error) adalah 2.8%.

Kaedah sampel sebegini membolehkan kaji selidik memberi gambaran tepat yang mewakili (representative) semua pengundi berdasarkan strata masing-masing.

Dapatan-dapatan utama sehari sebelum PRU15:

· Sokongan pengundi Melayu kepada UMNO/BN berada di paras terendah di dalam sejarah iaitu 26.7%. Tahap sokongan pengundi Melayu menjelang PRU14 adalah 33.6% yang menunjukkan keadaan UMNO/BN adalah lebih parah sekarang berbanding PRU14.

· Sokongan pengundi Melayu kepada PH dan PN adalah hampir sama iaitu di antara 22% ke 23%. Tahap sokongan Melayu kepada PH kali ini adalah lebih tinggi dari PRU14 (menjelang hari mengundi).

· Jumlah pengundi Melayu yang belum membuat keputusan meningkat dari minggu lepas kepada 24%, iaitu pertambahan 4% dalam masa seminggu. Ini menunjukkan lebih ramai pengundi Melayu menukar keputusan dari mengundi UMNO/BN (minggu lepas) kepada “Belum buat keputusan” yang membayangkan peralihan undi Melayu kepada PH.

· Sokongan pengundi Cina dan India kepada PH telah kembali ke paras PRU14.

· Sokongan keseluruhan pengundi kepada PH mengatasi sokongan kepada UMNO/BN dan PN di semua peringkat umur pengundi. Peningkatan paling ketara ialah di kalangan pengundi >55 tahun (PH mendahului pada paras 36% berbanding BN – 31% dan PN – 11%), diikuti dengan kumpulan pengundi 25-54 tahun (PH mendahului pada paras 30% berbanding BN – 22% dan PN – 18%).

· Sokongan keseluruhan pengundi muda 18-24 tahun adalah hampir sama bagi ketiga-tiga gabungan iaitu dalam julat 20% – 25%.

Jika pola sokongan ini tidak berubah menjelang hari mengundi esok dan jumlah kehadiran melebihi 75%, PH dijangka akan dapat memenangi lebih dari 100 kerusi Parlimen di seluruh negara.

Oleh itu, untuk meneruskan gelombang ini, saya menjemput semua rakyat Malaysia untuk menyertai saya, Anwar Ibrahim dan pimpinan KEADILAN/PH di Ceramah Mega Grand Finale #AyuhMalaysia #KitaBoleh malam ini (Jumaat, 18 November 2022) di Padang MPAJ, Pandan Indah bermula 830 malam.

Orang ramai di luar Lembah Klang boleh mengikuti siaran langsung di media sosial.

Saya doakan rakyat Malaysia terus membulatkan hati untuk membuat perubahan demi masa depan bila mengundi esok.

RAFIZI RAMLI
