Post GE 13 - BN's behavior

Malaysia after GE 13

The new Najib's cabinet was a

disappointment with sidelining of the Chinese representation  and repaying his supporters to hold on to his power.

The Sabahans, Sarawakians and Indians from Hindraf was heavily rewarded due to their untiring support or timely negotiated supports . The loyalty of the BN parties like MIC ,MCA and Gerakan fell like a rock despite their refusal to hold any post. 

I think this political game is childish. Yes, they are heavily defeated but as a team, they should be rewarded because they are team players. Of course,  it is shameful to represent a 

community which have rejected them.

But , this is part of the political game.

Never hold the people at a ransom and this could backfire as they can become  irrelevant in the process.

If we take away the Sabah and Sarawak seats, UMNO only have a minimum seats but they remained in control. Holding 21 ministries and this uneven seat could provide more conflicts in the near future among the component parties.

if the component parties like MCA, MIC and Gerakan failed to get more seats in the next GE and continued to shun participation in the government and it will move these parties to redundancy.

For the opposition parties, they have to gain more and more power which if not,,their union will weaken and this could lead to their breakup.

The survival of a two party system is important to ensure check and balance situation and also transparency.  This is the basic requirement for democracy.
