Are they really jumping?

Ah, Sabah politicians. They have gained the reputation of being very fluid with their political affiliations. We have seen in the 1970's, the 1980's and the infamous incident in 1994 when a certain PBS leader uttered the phrase "tukar baju" before switching parties.
Now that they are being more assertive, the immediate worry is whether they will be again doing the now renowned Sabah jump.
I checked with some Sabah Barisan leaders and the feedback is that there is no move out of the coalition. The possibility is that disgruntled leaders will team up in one local Sabah Barisan party so that they can speak as one voice and negotiate their demands as a full fledged partner in Barisan.

That should make the boys on a certain fourth floor jump.
