  • The Kimanis By-Election: a Much-Needed Sweet (Manis) Victory for Warisan
    ISSUE: 2020 No. 3 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore |16 January 2020 The Kimanis By-election: A Much-needed Sweet (Manis) Victory for Warisan Lee Poh Onn and Kevin Zhang*1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • On 18 January 2020, a by-election will be held for the parliamentary seat of Kimanis in Sabah. The Federal Court has upheld the Election Court's ruling that Anifah Aman's victory in the 14th General Elections (GE14) was nullified by election discrepancies. • This by-election is seen as a referendum on the Warisan state government’s performance over the past 18 months since replacing the Barisan Nasional (BN) after GE14, and the outcome would have some impact on Sabah Chief Minister Shafie Apdal’s standing. Warisan-PH and BN had won an equal number of state seats, but Warisan formed the state government only after the defection of some BN state assemblymen. At the Federal level, the Pakatan Harapan government sorely needs a victory in Kimanis to reverse the trend of by-election defeats it has suffered over the past year. • Warisan began the election contest on a stronger footing but it is shaping up to be a close fight. Both candidates, Warisan’s Karim Bujang and UMNO’s Mohamad Alamin, have strong political experience in Kimanis. • Bread and butter issues matter greatly to Kimanis residents who mostly suffer from low incomes and poor infrastructure. Warisan is on the defensive against the BN’s claims that the state government has failed to bring economic uplift to the area.

    Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Title Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysia Author(s) Faisal, S. Hazis Citation Southeast Asian Studies (2018), 7(3): 341-361 Issue Date 2018-12 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/237246 Right © Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 49, No. 2, September 2011 Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysia Faisal S. Hazis* This article traces the major contestations that have taken place in Sabah and Sarawak throughout the 54 years of their independence. The two major areas of contestation are state power and local resources, pitting federal leaders against Sabah and Sarawak’s elites. These contestations have forced the federal govern- ment to accommodate the local elites, thus ensuring the stability of Barisan Nasional (BN) rule in the East Malaysian states. However, Sabah and Sarawak elites are not homogeneous since they have different degrees of power, agendas, and aspirations. These differences have led to open feuds between the elites, resulting in the col- lapse of political parties and the formation of new political alignments. Over almost four decades, a great majority of the people in Sabah and Sarawak have acceded to BN rule. However, in the last decade there have been pockets of resistance against the authoritarian rule of BN and the local elites. This article argues that without accountability and a system of checks and balances, the demand for more autonomy by the increasingly vocal Sabah and Sarawak elites will benefit only them and not the general public.

Sahari Preface In Sabah, around 53% of the total state land is designated as protected area or conservation site within which human activities are strictly regulated. A large scale plantation industry has been put in place and population growth has been the threats for natural resources around and near the border of protected area and conservation site. There have been increasing needs to develop new incentive mechanism for the better natural resource management. In the meantime, regardless of rapid economic development in Malaysia, Sabah is still suffering from poverty. Most of the needy people live in the mountainous area, thus rural development for poverty eradication is essential for human well-being. Sabah needs to pursue way toward a society in harmony with nature where harmonization between conservation and development can be realized. Sabah has some outstanding management systems like land-use control and environment awareness programme (Environmental Education). In order to promote environment-friendly and sustainable development more, integrated and innovative approaches are indispensable. Considering the above-mentioned matters, IlCA-SDBEC conducted the study on "Economics of River Basin Management for Sustainable Development for Biodiversity and Ecosystems Conservation" from December 2014 to February 2015.

  • Movement Control and Migration in Sabah in the Time of COVID-19
    ISSUE: 2020 No. 135 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 27 November 2020 Movement Control and Migration in Sabah in the Time of COVID-19 Andrew M. Carruthers* EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • After a tumultuous state election, Sabah is now the epicenter of an ongoing “Third Wave” of COVID-19 infections that has swept across Malaysia. • Election campaigning and clandestine cross-border movement have been causally linked by different government actors to this Third Wave, prompting the government to tighten movement control orders and migrant surveillance in Sabah. • As a recent report by the Sovereign Migrant Workers Coalition makes clear, migrant detention practices must be reformulated in response to evolving administrative, epidemiological, and ethical challenges. • Policymakers must grasp that (i) movement control, (ii) migrant care, and (iii) public health are interconnected. * Guest writer, Andrew M. Carruthers, is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, and a former Associate and Visiting Fellow at the ISEAS –Yusuf Ishak Institute. 1 ISSUE: 2020 No. 135 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION On 25 October 2020, Malaysian King Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah declined to declare a National Emergency, despite Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s urging that such an emergency was necessary in the face of an intensifying “Third Wave” of COVID-19 transmission.

  • University of Perpetual Help System-DALTA College of Law
    University of Perpetual Help System-DALTA College of Law FOREWORD Philippines maintains a dormant claim over the sovereignty of eastern Sabah based on the claim that in 1658 the Sultan of Brunei had ceded the northeast portion of Borneo to the Sultan of Sulu; and that later in 1878, an agreement was signed by the Sultan of Sulu granting the North Borneo Chartered Company a permanent lease over the territory. Malaysia considered this dispute as a "non-issue", as there is no desire from the actual people of Sabah to be part of the Philippines or of the Sultanate of Sulu. As reported by the Secretary- General of the United Nations, the independence of North Borneo was brought about as the result of the expressed wish of the majority of the people of the territory in a 1963 election. This research will determine whether or not Philippines have proprietary rights over Sabah. Jennylyn B. Albano UPHSD- College of Law 1 | P a g e INTRODUCTION This research will focus on the History of Sabah and determination of whether who really owns it. As we all know even before our ancestors are already fighting for our right over this state however, up until now dispute is still on going. Sabah is one of the 13 member states of Malaysia, and is its easternmost state. It is located on the northern portion of the island of Borneo. It is the second largest state in the country after Sarawak, which it borders on its southwest. It also shares a border with the province of East Kalimantan of Indonesia in the south.

  • Investment Prospects and Potential in the Fisheries Sector in Sabah
    INVESTMENT PROSPECTS AND POTENTIAL IN THE FISHERIES SECTOR IN SABAH By Rayner Stuel Galid Director of Fisheries, Fisheries Department of Sabah. 1.0 Introduction One of the important national policies promulgated as a result of the 1997 start of the economic downturn was the emphasis on reducing the amount and value of foreign imports including food items. Concurrent with this policy, the government has embarked upon a program to increase local food production by enhancing and modernizing the agriculture sector. Thus the agriculture sector is once again in the limelight as it becomes one of the economic policy cornerstones upon which Malaysia hopes to consolidate and reinvigorate its economy. The fisheries sub sector has to perform well in order to contribute to these redefined long-term agriculture goals. Fish in Malaysia is everyman’s food. The per capita consumption of fish and other seafood in the country is estimated to be close to 40 kg. This represents more than two-thirds of the total animal protein consumed per capita locally. By end of the planning period of the Third National Agriculture Policy which is year 2010, it is expected that the total national fish production will be 1.93 million metric tonnes worth more than RM9.36 billion. To this end the Fisheries Department of Malaysia has targeted the fisheries sub-sector to grow by at least 5% annually. The State of Sabah has many potential to be a major contributor in achieving these national goals. This does not only include in the production of fresh fish produce and raw fisheries materials both from marine capture fisheries and aquaculture but also from in production of downstream processed fisheries products.

    Filipino Refugees in Sabah: State Responses, Public Title Stereotypes and the Dilemma Over Their Future Author(s) AZIZAH, KASSIM Citation 東南アジア研究 (2009), 47(1): 52-88 Issue Date 2009-06-30 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/108377 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 47, No. 1, June 2009 Filipino Refugees in Sabah: State Responses, Public Stereotypes and the Dilemma Over Their Future * AZIZAHK ASSIM Abstract Over the past four decades Malaysia has seen a rise in the inflow of foreign nationals. Among them are a substantial number of refugees estimated to be between 57,000 and 70,500 in 2008. The refugees, who are largely fromneighbouring countries, are only found in Peninsula Malaysia and the eastern state of Sabah. This paper, which limits itself to Filipino refugees in Sabah examines state administration of the refugees, the various stereotypes accorded to them by the general public and the dilemma of the state over their future. The validity of these stereotypes is tested by looking at their daily lives viz. their family structure and composition, community organisations, economic activities and their interactions with “others” and the state. The negative impact of external constraints on their lives is highlighted, particularly the ambiguous legal status of second and third generation refugees born and bred in Sabah. By presenting the stark realities of their lives, the writer hopes to refute some public misconceptions about them and by doing so help the state overcome its dilemma over the future of the refugees. The paper is based on fieldworks carried out intermittently between 2003 and 2005.

  • Sabah to Face Snap Elections
    SABAH TO FACE SNAP ELECTIONS Asrin Utong Programme Executive, IMAN Research The botched dissolution of the state legislative assembly led by Parti Warisan Sabah is by now inevitable. Following the press conference on 30th July, Shafie Apdal, the Chief Minister of Sabah, who is also the President of Warisan, announced that the dissolution of state legislative assembly has been granted by Tuan Yang Terutama (TYT) Tun Juhar Mahiruddin, the state Governor.1 The Election Commission (EC) in its statement to the media also acknowledged receiving official announcement from Sabah State Legislative Assembly. According to the EC, elections shall be held within 60 days from the date of the dissolution.2 The dissolution of the state assembly was a tit-for-tat move by Shafie Apdal, following a declaration by Musa Aman that he has the number to form a government. According to the latter, 33 state assemblymen from 60 state constituencies in Sabah are with him.3 The post-14th General Election saw Barisan Nasional and Parti Warisan Sabah (Pakatan Harapan’s coalition) each obtained 29 of the State Legislative Assembly seats, while the other two seats were won by Parti Solidariti Rakyat Sabah (STAR) which sided with BN Sabah spearheaded by Musa Aman, with 31 seats. The United Pasokmomogun Kadazandusun Murut Organization which is now called the United Progressive Kinabalu Organisation (UPKO) after rebranding itself recently, has decided to leave the Barisan Nasional pact. Despite that decision, four UPKO assemblymen still showing their support for Musa Aman as the Chief Minister. A day after the General Election concluded, six Barisan Nasional assemblymen quit the party and joined Warisan and supported Shafie Apdal as the Chief Minister on 12th May 2018.
