By Joe Fernandez

I AM for the destruction of Pesaka, the gathering of the 3rd Force in Parliament through the 57 seats from Borneo and the decolonization of Borneo in that order. Anwar will never agree to the destruction of Pesaka just as he will never agree to the destruction of Umno in Sabah. We have been through this before.
