  • Introduction
    1 Introduction Dennis Blair The second volume of Military Engagement relates the stories of how democratic civil-military relations developed in five world regions and fourteen individual countries. This introduction pro- vides some background on those who authored these stories and describes the patterns observed and the lessons that can be drawn from them. The Authors The regional summaries were written by a team of coauthors, almost all having both practical experience in armed forces or defense ministries of their countries and subsequent careers with security think tanks. They also contributed ideas and criticisms of the analysis and recommendations in the companion volume. Juan Emilio Cheyre, while chief of staff of the Chilean army, took the final steps to bring his service out of the Pinochet era. Matthew Rhodes is a professor at the Marshall Center in Germany, an insti- tution at the center of military-military relations among countries around the world. Istvan Gyarmati, who participated in the early brainstorming sessions for the handbook, was deputy defense minister of Hungary during the Hungarian armed forces’ transi- tion from its Warsaw Pact organization to meet NATO standards. Muthiah Alagappa, a general in the Malaysian Army, has become the foremost scholar of Asian civil-military relations subsequent to 1 01-2478-0 ch1.indd 1 5/16/13 6:03 PM 2 Dennis Blair his retirement. Tannous Mouawad served as Lebanon’s military attaché to the United States and the chief of Lebanon’s military intelligence service. Martin Rupiya was an officer in the Zimbabwean National Army and now heads a security affairs think tank in South Africa Each of the regional coauthors recruited additional authors to write the indi- vidual case studies; two of them wrote a case study as well.

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.

    Water Quality Monitoring in Sugut River and its Tributaries WWF-Malaysia Project Report February/2016 Water Quality Monitoring in Sugut River and its Tributaries By Dr. Sahana Harun and Dr. Arman Hadi Fikri Institute for Tropical Biology and Conservation Universiti Malaysia Sabah Jalan UMS, 88400 Kota Kinabalu Sabah, Malaysia Report Produced Under Project ST01081R HSBC Bank Malaysia February 2016 Acknowledgements The authors of this report would like to thank the Sabah Forestry Department staff of Trusan-Sugut Forest Reserve for providing accommodation, transport and assistance in carrying out this project. Thanks also to WWF-Malaysia for providing us the opportunity to carry out the work. This project was funded by HSBC Bank Malaysia. Executive Summary WWF-Malaysia initiated the water quality monitoring using physic-chemical and biological parameters along the lower Sugut River and its tributaries to monitor the status of water quality in the area, especially in areas surrounded by oil palm plantations. A total of 12 sampling stations were selected at four tributaries of Sugut River based on agreement with WWF staff members and Sabah Forestry Department (SFD) officer. The four tributaries were Sabang river (next to oil palm mill), Sugut river (next to oil palm plantation), Wansayan river (next to secondary forest) and Kepilatan river (next to Nipah forest). Fieldwork started in August 2015 and ended in November 2015, with a total of four samplings. The results showed that the Water Quality Index (WQI) classified Sg. Sabang as very polluted, while Sg. Sugut, Sg. Wansayan and Sg. Kepilatan were slightly polluted. In accordance to INWQS, parameters TSS, DO and BOD for all tributaries were classified in Class III and IV.

  • Borneo Trip Report Kinabatangan, Gomantang, Sepilok, Klias & Ba
    Borneo Trip Report Kinabatangan, Gomantang, Sepilok, Klias & Ba’Kelalan 9-17 March 2020 John Rogers, Neil Broekhuizen Guided by: BirdTour Asia, Wilbur Goh (Sabah) and Yeo Siew Teck (Sarawak) Overview A very successful 8 day trip covering the Kinabatangan River (as well as Gomantang Cave and Sepilok) in north-east Sabah, an afternoon and evening at the Klias Swamp Forest reserve in south-west Sabah and three days at Ba’Kelalan in north-east Sarawak, We began with 3 full days based at the Myne Resort on the Kinabatangan river. The highlight was undoubtedly spectacular views of a male Bornean Ground Cuckoo. Other highlights at Kinabatangan included great night birding that yielded Large Frogmouth, Reddish Scops Owl and Oriental Bay Owl and other good diurnal birds included the much-desired Storm’s Stork, White-crowned and Wrinkled Hornbills and Sabah (Chestnut-necklaced) Partridge. After a brief visit to the Gomantang Caves we had one night at Sepilok and then a productive morning’s birding with Bornean Bristlehead and the scarce Olive-backed Woodpecker the main highlights. We then flew to Kota Kinabulu and drove the Klias swamp forest reserve where we were successful in seeing the main target; Hook-billed Bulbul. That afternoon and evening we drove into Sarawak and after one night in the regional town of Lawas caught a small flight to Ba’Kelalan. Our three days of birding was spectacular with good views of all 7 of the ‘Sarawak specials’: we were very excited to finally see Hose’s Broadbill after many hours of searching with Dulit and Bornean Frogmouths, Blue-banded and Bornean Banded Pittas, Whitehead’s Spiderhunter and Mountain Serpent Eagle rounding out the target list.

  • From Gabbang to Gabang: the Diffusion and Transformation of a Philippine Xylophone Among Indigenous Paitanic Communities of Sabah, Malaysia
    Borneo Research Journal, Volume 11, December 2017, 106-117 FROM GABBANG TO GABANG: THE DIFFUSION AND TRANSFORMATION OF A PHILIPPINE XYLOPHONE AMONG INDIGENOUS PAITANIC COMMUNITIES OF SABAH, MALAYSIA Jacqueline Pugh-Kitingan* Universiti Malaysia Sabah ([email protected]) DOI: https://doi.org/10.22452/brj.vol11no1.7 Abstract Musical instruments are objects of material culture and, as sound producers used to create music, are also part of the intangible cultural heritage of communities. Some instruments are local inventions, while others have been diffused into indigenous cultures through outside contacts. During the process of diffusion, instruments may undergo structural transformations due to the use of local materials. Terms used for the parts of the diffused instrument and also the music played may also change over time in accordance with local aesthetics and contexts. The focus of this article is the diffusion and transformation of the nibung palmwood or bamboo keyed gabbang xylophone of the Sama’ Bajau and Suluk communities along the east coast of Sabah, the east Malaysian state on northern Borneo, into the wooden gabang of the indigenous Makiang people of the Upper Kinabatangan River. The gabbang originated from Bajau and Suluk (Taosug) cultures in the southern Philippines. The discussion here compares and contrasts the structure, nomenclature and performance technique of the Makiang gabang with the gabbang to identify the physical transformation that the instrument has undergone. It also examines the gabang repertoire and discusses a musical example to show how this transformed xylophone has been utlised to produce music according to Makiang contexts and practices. This illustrates how ideas and objects can cross cultural borders to eventually develop into traditions in the receiving culture.

Flood Risk Pattern Recognition In Kinabatangan River, Sabah-- Palarch’s Journal Of Archaeology Of Egypt/Egyptology 17(10), 4018-4025. ISSN 1567- 214x Keywords: Chemometrics; Evaporation; Flood; Kinabatangan River; Rainfall; Water level. ABSTRACT A flood can be described as any high-water flow in any part of the river system which dominates the natural or artificial banks. In Malaysia, floods frequently occur because of the increase in rainfall rates and rising sea levels in certain parts of the country. This study was conducted to determine the flood risk pattern recognition in Kinabatangan River, Sabah. Thirty years (1989-2019) secondary database obtained from the Malaysian Department of Irrigation and Drainage (DID) Ampang, Kuala Lumpur was statistically analysed using chemometrics techniques. The finding demonstrated that only water level with strong factor loadings (44.82 %) was classified as the most potential contributors of flood occurrence in the research region as it had a good consistency compared to other variables, rainfall and evaporation. From the results, 99% out of total result being classified as High Risk Class with a range of 70 and above risk index, 1% classified as a Cautionary Zone Class with a risk index from 37.14, meanwhile 0% fall into Low Risk Class with a risk index from 0-34.
