00:00Two political analysts have labeled former law minister Zayed Ibrahim's
00:06proposal for Sarawak to lead national politics as unrealistic.
00:11James Chin from the University of Tasmania dismissed the idea, saying
00:14the Malay establishment in peninsular Malaysia would never accept a
00:18Sarawakian leader as prime minister.
00:21He added that at most, Sarawak leaders could attain the
00:24deputy prime minister position.
00:27Meanwhile, Jayum Jawan from University of Malaysia Sarawak said the state's
00:3131 parliamentary seats wouldn't provide sufficient political power
00:35for stable federal leadership.
00:37He also said Sarawak leaders prioritize local leadership over federal roles.
00:43Both analysts expressed doubt that Sarawak could help Malaysia transcend
00:46race and religion-based politics.
00:49Chin also said these issues are deeply rooted in peninsular Malaysia, making
00:53significant change difficult without a major shift in the political landscape.
