Who Will Jump? BN Component Party Charts - Malaysiakini

Refer to yesterday article of Raja Petra Kamaruddin calculation on possibility of 30 to 40 MPs to cross over, here are the summary charts to show the exact numbers and position of all the Barisan Nasional Component Party.


Please refer :

If we analyze it from the chart, which political party will have the higher possibility to jump over?


Pakatan Rakyat now holds 82 parliamentary seats including one each in Sarawak and Sabah under DAP.

To form a government and go straight ahead to Putrajaya Administration Office, they just need 30 MPs but this would not be enough or unstable (Barisan Nasional 110 seats - 112 seats Pakatan Rakyat) unless Pakatan Rakyat managed to pull nearly to 40 MPs.



Barisan Nasional has 140 seats in Parliament. Here is the break up:


PENINSULAR MALAYSIA - 86 Parliamentary Seats.

1 ) UMNO 79 Seats

Peninsular Malaysia 66 Seats

Sabah 13 Seats

2 ) MCA 15 Seats

3 ) MIC 3 Seats

4 ) GERAKAN 2 Seats

SARAWAK - 30 Parliamentary Seats

5 ) PBB 14 Seats

6 ) SUPP 6 Seats

7 ) PRS 6 Seats

8 ) SPDP 4 Seats

SABAH - 24 Parliamentary Seats (13 UMNO Seats)

9 ) UPKO 4 Seats

10) PBS 3 Seats

11) SAPP 2 Seats

12) PBRS 1 Seat

13) LDP 1 Seat

Some people seeing this is just a tactical play in politics. To build an instablity political situation in Malaysia. To let people know how weak is Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Datuk Seri Najib compare to Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Sept 16 might be a date to remember but don't forget about Sept 10 (Datuk Seri Anwar to attend court hearing on his case). It will not bring any major impact on him but for sure and definitely it will make those who had invested in the share market to keep on guessing and biting their finger nails.




Latest Developments : Barisan Nasional MPs being asked to hand in passports for study trip. It is understood that the trip, said to take place between Sept 7 and Sept 19. Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing (Bintulu MP) said the trip was the brainchild of the Backbenchers Club.

The purpose of this trip is to update every MPs with the latest information about agriculture and high tech food production so that they can debate better on the Budget when Parliament sits again in October.

"Wah..... this is nice because all the while I thought that Barisan Nasional just sit there without doing anything. Now they have started to pull out their SWORD and their SHEILD to prevent any further damages..... interesting."

==================================
Barisan reps asked to hand in passports for study trip

(The Star) - Barisan Nasional MPs have been asked to submit their passports for an overseas study trip ahead of Sept 16, the date that is being bandied about for supposed defections to take place.

Backbenchers Club chairman Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing said the trip was the brainchild of the club but rejected suggestions that it was organised because of the Sept 16 claim.

“The trip came about after a few of our members got talking. We wanted MPs to update themselves with the latest information about agriculture and high-tech food production so that we can debate better on the Budget when Parliament sits again in October.

“This is the best time for the trip although it is the fasting month because after that, Hari Raya celebrations begin and Parliament will meet again,” he told The Star here yesterday.

Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has been claiming that his plan to topple the Barisan government by Sept 16 was on track. He claimed that some 30 Barisan MPs, particularly from Sabah and Sarawak, were ready to defect.

It is understood that the trip, said to take place between Sept 7 and Sept 19, will be open to all MPs, especially those whose constituencies have agricultural concerns, and not just MPs from Sabah and Sarawak, said to be targets of PKR.

Tiong, the Bintulu MP, maintained that the trip “had nothing to do with Sept 16”, saying it was only natural to ask MPs to submit their passports for the purpose of visa applications and ticket bookings.

He said the club had not finalised how many MPs would be going on the trip or the actual date.

“We haven’t also decided on the destination country. You know me, I only like to announce something when all the details have been confirmed,” he said.

He stressed that it was not an “overseas retreat” but a study trip for MPs.

Deputy Backbenchers Club chairman Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin also confirmed there was such a trip to explore agricultural technology.

“Probably, the trip will be over this weekend. But we have not decided how many MPs will be participating,” the Kinabatangan MP said.

Kapit MP Alexander Nanta Linggi said he had been asked by fellow MPs from Sarawak if “he was available”.

“I told them that I was going on a trip with (Plantation Industries and Commodities) Minister Datuk Peter Chin Fah Kui on his palm oil campaign mission overseas to London and Belgium. They left it at that.”

Kimanis MP Datuk Anifah Aman and Muar MP Razali Ibrahim said they had not been contacted by anybody on the proposed trip.

“I don’t know anything. I’ve been in my constituency the whole day and Parliament has not asked for my passport,” said Anifah, who is known for his vocal views during debate in Dewan Rakyat.

Pasik Salak MP Datuk Tajuddin Abdul Rahman also denied being asked to go for the trip.

“What trip? I was not approached for this,” he added.
