In billboard war, Warisan pushes unity while Perikatan banks on cult of personality

Thursday, 17 Sep 2020 06:00 AM MYTAn election poster of Warisan president Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal is seen in Luyang, Sabah September 14, 2020. — Picture by Firdaus Latif

Shafie’s campaign has altered the message for the state election, however, touting “Unity” and multiculturalism in an apparent attempt to draw focus on the heavy dominance of the Malay-based Bersatu, Umno, and PAS in the federal government. Shafie has embarked on an aggressive social media campaign, and gained particular traction with his Malaysia Day message video in which he spoke candidly about his life and upbringing, before driving home the message that Sabah was for all races.

Among others, they saw it as an attempt to shoehorn peninsular culture into a campaign to woo Sabahans’ support., who came up with this? It’s appalling. We already have our own words, no need to add anymore,” said Francis Sidom.
