Why Sabahans, S'wakians are unhappy with peninsula
By CK Low
KOTA KINABALU:
1) The political parties and their leaders in Sabah and Sarawak not only need to go back to the drawing board. They need a massive revamp of their thinking and ideologies. Even on the agenda of autonomy, it is just not autonomy alone but things like own Sabah and Sarawak system within the Federal system. If you look at the Federation of Malaya Constitution and the Malaysia Agrt with the 18/20 Points Memorandum, very different federal systems was envisaged in 1963. It was just not a federation within a federation. Even in an "equal" federation" like in Canada, Quebec has its own education system and is French-speaking compared to the rest of Canada which is English-based.

IN RESPONSE TO YB DATUK HERBERT TIMBUN LAGADAN’S PRESS STATEMENT IN TODAY’S DAILIES (09/03/2011) ON THE TOMBOTUON DAM IN KOTA BELUD, SABAH
Peter Marajin salient points:
There is no necessity at all to have a dam to be built and located at Kg. Tombotuon Kota Belud. Common sense tells us that with good management and a reasonably better irrigation at the ‘kuala’ of the Kadamaian River, the water from the river is more than sufficient to handle the whole of the proposed Jelapang Padi of Kota Belud which is mostly located at the ‘kuala’ (some 30 miles downstream of Kg. Tombotuon) without having to drown the whole of Kg. Tombotuon which also will affect the nearby Kg. Lingkubang, Kg Bundu Paka and Kg. Purakogis.
