Joey of audie61 picked this story up from an internet blog. Who says that there are no factions within the PBB circles. It seems the melanaus from different coastal areas are not always at PEACE with each other and there are bound to be frictions like most political parties experience. PBB will not be an exception and they always practise the TREE SHAKING METHOD…

The article is as follows:-  

Chief Minister Political Secretary, Abu Seman Jahwie is the one and only ordinary member of Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) serving as an Elected Member of Sarawak State Legislative Assembly and holding important position in party HQ.

Abu Seman hailed from Kampung Hilir Bawang, Matu, graduated with Bachelor of Economics from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) and was also the former Senior Assistant Director of Customs for 23 years before joining in politics.

Presently, he is the Assistant Secretary-General of Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Sarawak and was once the Assistant Branch Head for PBB N.38, Jemoreng.

Elected as N.38, Jemoreng state assemblyman since May, 20, 2006.

The most widely publicised Jemoreng representative, however, was missing from the news and group photograph when it matters most.

Seman used to be deputy branch chief to Datuk Abdul Wahab Dollah at PBB Jemoreng set up but was ironically not attending the branch TGM held at Kingwood Resort recently.

His place is now taken by Nawarwi Rabani, a local businessman while Wahab was returned uncontested. It is widely known that Seman is very close with the Awang clans lead by the three musketeers, Datuk Awang Tengah Ali Hassan, Datuk Seri Mohd Asfia Awang Nassar and Awang Bujang Awang Antek. Seman is PBB deputy secretary general at HQ level despite being what Taib describe as “First Termer”.

Whereas the low profile  Wahab whom is serving as Igan MP now is known as a lone ranger that recently was being seen friendly to the Awang rival, the Abang gang.

The fight between Tengah and Asfia with Wahab had been taking place long long long time ago, and is an open secret, that only PBB president Pehin Seri Abdul Taib Mahmud could “try” to mediate.

Sources very close to Demak Jaya revealed that recently Asfia and Seman met Taib, trying to seek favour. Unfortunately, being a fair father to all, Taib told Seman to attend the TGM organised by Wahab. Seman however did not.

A letter was also issued requesting for the postponement of the TGM, but it was not taken seriously because the directive does quote “President” decree.

It was not immediately known whether the Awang gang will make fuss over the issue and turn PBB into another chaotic member of Barisan Nasional (BN) joining the likes of Sarawak National Party, Parti Bansa Dayak Sarawak (PBDS) and most recently Dudong Not Very United People Party, ooops Sarawak United People Party (SUPP).

The noise over interference from PBB headquarters at branch meeting are ruling coffee shop and sms are showering Sarawak Update including those originating from Sarawak corridor of powers.

To date, three popular youth chief have lost while many incumbent deputy branch chairman are being replaced in proxy wars as party TGM are by and large, game of numbers.

One of the most popular deputy branch chairman that comes out in the newspaper almost every fortnight, if not more, had become the largest casualty
