The power of opposition parties in Malaysia is at its strongest now, and yet it is scattered at the same time.
A similar situation is happening in Sabah. Despite all opposition parties in Sabah, namely Pakatan Harapan, United Sabah Alliance, and the Sabah Heritage Party agreeing on Sabah autonomy, Malaysia Agreement 1963 and toppling of BN government as common targets, they barely agree with each other and find it difficult to work together to achieve the common targets.
Among the opposition leaders, there are at least three of them who have held the chief minister and federal minister posts prior to forming opposition parties, which means they have substantial experience in government and also gain popularity from indigenous Muslims of the East Coast and West Coast of Sabah, and indigenous Non-Muslims from the interior of Sabah, as well as the Chinese.
