KIULU: Crispin Datuk Kitingan, younger brother of Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan and Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan had never shown any interest in joining a political party even though he had been invited or asked about joining one.

But after his retirement as the SAFODA Research and Development Manager, Crispin choses to join Parti Warisan Sabah (Warisan).

“I chose Warisan as my first political platform in February this year, neither PBS nor Star,” said Crispin in his speech during the Kaamatan Open House at Kg. Mantob here.
The Kaamatan organized by the Kiulu Warisan Division headed by Jo-Anne Sue Henley Rampas a few days ago. Crispin said, PBS founded by Pairin is now a stooge of BN-Umno.

“If I support PBS, it means I support the BN-Umno regime and thus leaders of the party, the continued ‘colonisation’ of Sabah and thus the continued oppression of our people and the plundering of our State wealth,” said Crispin, added that PBS leaders in the BN-Umno led government has no clout.

Crispin affirmed that he is supporting Star’s struggle led by Jeffrey for the rights of Sabahans especially about MA63 and 20-point.

“But Star, unfortunately, does not have support of the majority for the reasons best known by the people,” said Crispin.

Crispin invites Malaysian in Sabah not to waste their time, energy and money in supporting a party that has no capacity to defeat the BN-Umno regime, what more to form the next government.

“After all, Warisan is fighting for the same cause but the party is the best  platform to oust the corrupt BN-Umno led government,” he said.

Although Crispin had never joined any political partiy, he has been exposed to politics since the rules of Usno, Berjaya, PBS and now BN-Umno.

Reasons why he chooses Warisan are because of his concern of the current situation and pissed off with the current corrupt government which has resulted in many issues that had made life difficult for the people of Sabah.

“I felt called to give a hand and contribute in changing the current regime,” Crispin concluded.

To Crispin, Warisan is a truly multiracial local party that holds the principle of uniting the people of Sabah irrespective of race and religion.

He also believes in the leadership, the capability and the sincerity of the Warisan leaders under the able leadership of Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal and YB Darell Leiking in fighting for the rights of the Sabahans and to bring true development, wealth, equality, justice, peace and harmony for the people of Sabah.
