He said political stability exists in Sarawak because of the leadership of Premier Abang Johari Openg as well as "we don't have DAP in Sarawak government, as they are always divisive, polarising and politicking; disguise as championing for the rakyat." 

"We have witnessed in this August House their behaviour and drama in every State Legislative Assembly (SLA) session as indeed one's character cannot change," he said in his winding up speech in the SLA today.

Dr  Sim, who is also Sarawak United People's Party (SUPP) president, accused Sarawak DAP Sarawak of being bankrupt of ideas, still playing the same political style of gutter politics, cheap publicity for emotional sympathy and without significant substance or results, all disguised as championing for check and balance in democracy.

"Even with 40 DAP MPs in Parliament, second last party after PAS with 43 MPs, they fail to provide checks and balances in Kuala Lumpur," he said.

He called upon Sarawakians to remain united and stand together in solidarity for these few critical years till 2030, saying :"We must be on high alert for anai anai (termites) from both within and outside Sarawak and also for anai anai inside GPS.

He also called upon every Sarawakian to play their role and doing their part, no matter where they are in the world, to contribute, to support the GPS government under Premier Abang Johari Openg in building a stronger and prosperous Sarawak, an inclusive Sarawak, an environmental sustainable Sarawak.

"Is not good enough for the premier doing well but every Sarawak agencies, every Sarawak NGOs, and every Sarawakian to do well also.

"This way, everyone of can make a difference for Sarawak nation building, ensuring a better Sarawak for every Sarawakian in Malaysia and overseas, so that they can come home to work, to retire, to enjoy Sarawak values, the best of Sarawak spirit and lifestyles, especially if they are frustrated and disillusioned in West Malaysia or overseas.

"Given the political chaos in West Malaysia in the last few months, where Sarawak is supposed to have election but Johore, Negeri Sembilan and Malacca have state election sooner than Sarawak election.

"We can see how toxic, divisive, polarising West Malaysia cultures and how chaotic politically. Let’s “tolak” all “Malayan parties” from Sarawak for once," Dr Sim said.
