    Kinabalu Climb Part 2 🧗‍♀️ Summit Push & Descent

    The reality of Borneo's Mount Kinabalu, we discovered, lies not in the triumphant photographs taken at dawn, but in the pitch-black, exhausting hours preceding them, and the subsequent descent.

  3. Sesko soars as Manchester United surge past Sabah on Champions League return
    By David Hytner at Old Trafford

    It was a night for romance given the astonishing story that Sabah brought with them to Old Trafford for their Champions League debut. This is a club that did not even exist a decade ago and nobody saw their bolt to the title in Azerbaijan coming last season; in 2024-25, they had finished 41 points off the top. The job that their manager, Valdas Dambrauskas, has done since taking over in the summer of last year is extraordinary.

  4. Dimalukan dan dipersalahkan atas imbasan QR yang rosak—kemudian terpaksa turun dari bas, tak sampai ke destinasi. Teknologi sepatutnya memberi manfaat kepada kita, bukan memalukan kita.

  5. Sabah is rich in resources, but politicians jail its wealth, using patronage to ensure dependency and easy bribes. The "Sabahan Malas" stereotype and using religion to gaslight are tactics to hide this reality. Focus on corrupt leaders and demand a fair system.

  6. RE: mastodon.social/@ohmedia/11554

    This news article itself an insult to Sabah and Sabahan people.

    The mention of "bread" in exchange for Sabah dignity.

    The mention of Sabah being a "state" in Malaysia instead of one of the separate founding partners of Malaysia. One of the regions building Malaysia.

  7. [Edited] My past blog entry snippet is a crucial reminder for the fedizens: The idea that having different political choices equals being "divided" is a harmful label. True stability comes from acknowledging and navigating a healthy, functioning, diverse political landscape.

    > But here is where the political spin becomes harmful: The politician does not focus on systemic failures; he blames the victims.

    > Having different political choices is not being "divided"—it is the definition of a healthy, functioning democracy.

  8. @kalvin: They labelled us "other Bumiputera." Sad. For them, we're just "other" kind of Malaysians.

    @kalvin: Just to be clear — anyone instigating arguments or spreading hate is not among my circle.

    ↑ Why did I talk like this? Let me tell you the context.

    @Gyuriim: Tapi, Melanau orang ulu dan banyak lagi kaum minoriti selain KDMR. Nak cakap pasal sensitiviti, macam mana sekalipun, pasti ada kaum minoriti yang sensitif. Tidak perlu pergi jauh, tengok sahaja di Sarawak. Yang Iban fikirkan Sarawak ini adalah milik Iban sahaja. Padahal, masih ada Bidayuh, Orang Ulu, Melanau, semua.

    ↑ This is an example of harmful and divisive "minority and/or majority" narratives and labels. And also, the commenter holds the opinion that, based on limited data by the Iban people themselves, they claimed that the whole Iban population thinks Sarawak belongs to them. Ignoring diverse political opinions and alignment diversities among human beings.

    @ezan: Tak semua suku di Sabah dan Sarawak adalah Dayak... Paham tak?

    @nazr: Boleh sahaja dikategorikan sebagai Dayak terus, macam Melayu buat, tapi tak nak 😁

    ↑ Overgeneralizations of all people from Sabah and Sarawak as simply Dayak are inappropriate and insulting. KDMR++ people do choose "Momogun" as their core identity. The second comment is also harmful, showing a lack of empathy and respect because of the smile emoji.

    @Zurfiqar Zurkefili: Terlalu banyak etnik... dan jika disatukan atas satu nama, etnik lain tidak mahu mengiktiraf serta populasi setiap etnik tidak terlalu besar. Inilah caranya... Jangan cakap begitu... Harmoni ialah lambang negara.

    ↑ Too many ethnicities aren't a relevant excuse for justifying representing Malaysia as only three: "Malay", Chinese, Indian. We must stop ethnic discrimination and subtle cleansing (which choosing only three ethnicities suggests). We're Malaysians.

    @kruhuv: Other bumi isn't exclusive to Sabahan and Sarawakian only; there are others like Indigenous people and many other ethnic groups.

    ↑ This is true. Yes, I did mean "they labelled us other Bumiputera," which means, I think, that for them we are just "other" kinds of Malaysians. Based on my past experience at school as a teenage student in that secondary school, a teacher in front of the students said, "This is an Indian; all the others are Malay students," and when they pointed at me: "Kalvin, what is your 'brand'?" showing a lack of understanding and a subtle insult towards their "other" kinds of ethnicities.

    @JEMTOD93: Kan, dah lah ambil dari kita perkataan bumi yang kita guna dulu sebagai others, kenapa tidak sahaja guna Melayu? Dalam perlembagaan tidak disebutkan tentang kesultanan Bumiputra tetapi kesultanan Melayu. Marah kata menghakis hak Melayu, tetapi satu-satu benda yang menjadikan mereka sebagai identiti adalah untuk dikenali sebagai Melayu. Tetapi mereka merujuk diri mereka sebagai Bumiputra🥲.

    ↑ Suggested Malay supremacy propaganda. Monarch worship, which is unhealthy for democracy. Ethnic supremacy propaganda and discrimination, which I see as global concerning issues that are often discussed and about which I am concerned.

    @Pickley_Star: This country doesn't care for its natives the same way other countries do. They only prioritize Malay people.

    (Me to Pickley) @kalvin: Imagine using "Malay supremacy" propaganda for elites to keep hoarding their wealth.

    ↑ In a place that faces injustices, oral sources and narratives do count as the primary sources of evidence and stories when the law and documentation fail to protect the vulnerable, which suggests that only specific people receive protection and certain benefits.

    Labels like 'other Bumiputera' and ignoring KDMR++ identity as 'Dayak' are divisive. This subtle ethnic cleansing maintains elite wealth. Our lived experience is primary evidence against this injustice.
