This Malaysia Day 16th Sepetember - THE TIME HAS COME TO INTERNATIONALISE SABAH'S UNFINISHED CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTION By DANIEL JOHN JAMBUN

Murray Hunter : Today Malaysia turns sixty-three. This should be a day of celebration. But genuine patriotism does not require us to pretend that every question surrounding the formation and subsequent operation of Malaysia has been satisfactorily answered.

Over the past three days, BoPiMaFo has examined the difference between the Malaysia that was promised and the Malaysia that was implemented.

We asked what actually happened to North Borneo in 1963.

We examined a Federal Court finding that at least one safeguard contained in the Inter-Governmental Committee arrangements was never implemented.

We examined security, development, constitutional finance, demographic change, indigenous political participation and the need for a new constitutional strategy.

Today we ask the larger question:

HAS THE TIME COME TO INTERNATIONALISE THE UNFINISHED CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTIONS ARISING FROM THE FORMATION AND PERFORMANCE OF MALAYSIA?

BoPiMaFo believes the answer is yes. But internationalisation must be based on documents, law and evidence — not slogans.

MA63 IS ALREADY AN INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT.
