Curse of No.13 to usher the end of Sabah BN?

By Jason Matius
KOTA KINABALU: There is now serious talk spreading among the Sabah opposition parties concerning the effect of numbers in the political fortunes of political parties in Sabah . And to the opposition parties’delight, the numbers appear to point to the death knell of the Barisan Nasional in the next general election.

A series of texts messages and excited conversations concerning the number thirteen, which prophesying BN’s supposed impending fall, have been making their rounds among mainly opposition supporters here. These messages remind Sabahans of the fact that USNO, Sabah ’s first government, was defeated by Berjaya in 1976 (7 + 6 = 13), Berjaya was defeated by PBS in 1985 (8 + 5= 13), and PBS was toppled from power by BN in 1994 (9 + 4 = 13). Also interesting is that each of these three governments ruled for exactly nine years!
