I'm tired of Malaysian politics relying on scare tactics, guilt-tripping, and ethnic discrimination. Sabah deserves the assertion of autonomy and restoration of rights. We must demand real solutions and decentralisation, not old school political party loyalty.

My poll on the World App confirms a strong consensus: 68% of voters recognise Sabah and Sarawak as equal founding partners under the Malaysia Agreement 1963. This is a powerful affirmation against centralist narratives, and a crucial step for justice.

[Repost] The split of Singapore was agreed upon by Malaya and Singapore, but excluding Sabah and Sarawak proved the partnership was one of domination, not equality. We must confront this history.

[Repost] Oil and gas belong to Sarawak. Any perceived attempt by a federal body to undermine this autonomy is an insult to Sarawak's status as a founding partner.

[Repost] The argument that giving Sabah its 40% will bankrupt the Federal Government is an admission of systemic exploitation and fiscal failure. Sabah's dignity comes first.

Sabah and Sarawak are independent; our dignity is not for sale or defined by unjust agreements.

The royal institutions of Malaysia have survived for over 600 years—outlasting the Portuguese (130 years, 1511–1641), Dutch (83 years, 1641–1824), British (171 years, 1786–1957), and Japanese (3 brutal years, 1942–1945). Every colonizer tried to erase or manipulate the monarchy to exploit this land, yet it endured as the last line of cultural and political defense.

While Peninsular Malaysia gained independence on August 31, 1957, Sabah and Sarawak achieved self-governance separately—Sarawak on July 22, 1963, and Sabah on August 31, 1963—before Malaysia’s formation on September 16, 1963. These independence dates highlight the distinct paths taken by different regions of Malaysia.

Today, even as critics—many ironically benefiting from the stability these institutions preserved—call for their abolition, history’s verdict is clear: no foreign power or local agitator has ever succeeded in destroying what six centuries of conquest could not. The monarchy isn’t just a symbol; it’s the only unbroken system that has consistently outlived its enemies.

#Borneo's #Sabah & #Sarawak joined more-populated #Malaya in 1963 to form #Malaysia, under soon-broken promises of self-governance (#autonomy). 60 years later, changing politics bring renewed hope for autonomy or even (unlikely) #independence.

A senator from #Sarawak has proposed that the now defunct #FeriMalaysia services between #PeninsularMalaysia and the East Malaysian states of Sarawak and #Sabah be revived

This is not only good for tourism developments but also national integration between the people of both sides of the country

The #ferry service was active in the late 1980s but was stopped due to financial reasons

Dr Anna Sulan Masing, an Indigenous Iban person from Sarawak now in the UK, hosts an excellent podcast on Whetstone Radio called Taste of Place. She explores colonialism, nostalgia, tribal culture through white pepper, Sarawak’s cash crop.
