Initially, if oil was found within the boundaries of a State in the Federation of Malaysia, it is owned by the State. J.C Fong in his book Constitutional Federalism in Malaysia, wrote, on p. 98:

A response to Idris Jala (Part 1)

FMT LETTER: From Oliver Gomez

I read with faint amusement Idris Jala’s article which appearead in the June 24, 2013 edition of The Star newspaper. Idris Jala in his article discusses seven issues affecting Malaysia today.

Now in a few articles over the coming days, I will attempt to dissect and expose Idris Jala’s article for the rubbish that it is. I will start off now by tackling the first two issues that appear in his article.

Incidentally if you have not already read Idris Jala’s article, I strongly suggest that you do. It is a shining example of how misleading statistics can be and how politicians can literally get away with murder so long as they deny it strongly enough.

Going To School Is A Life Threatening Experience

50 YEARS OF PROGRESS IN MALAYSIA

Picture 1 shows how schools kids go to school in a part of Sarawak. They take their lives into their own hands to be educated. They have to walk the tight rope twice a day and going home in the evening is even more dangerous. We have to thank those people who brought this type of progress by forcing our countries into Malaysia! It bring tears to the eye to see such sights.

Tell the Truth or Be Investigated - Jeffrey

Kota Kinabalu: “The Inland Revenue Board should be truthful about the tax revenues collected in Sabah rather than trying to cover up the truth just because Sabah is now claiming its constitutional share of this revenues”said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, STAR Sabah Chief, in response to front-pages stories that only RM4 billion federal tax collectionwas targeted by the IRB from Sabah in 2013 and not RM40 billion as reported earlier.

The RM40 billion was initially announced by the IRB Sabah and they appear to be back-tracking as if to attempt a cover-up now that Sabah is entitled to two-fifths (40%) of the net revenue collected from Sabah.

Oil & Gas Royalties

What a royalty is. How it is calculated. What is it based on?

Whenever oil or gas production begins,the landowner is entitled to part of the total production. A royalty is agreed upon as a percentage of the lease, minus what was reasonably used in the Lessee's production costs. The royalty is paid by the Lessee to the owner of the mineral rights, the Lessor in the Lease. It is based on a percentage of the gross production from the property and is free and clear of all costs, except for taxes.

Traditionally, royalty can be 1/8 of production or 12.8 percent of production; however, it can be any fraction of production, depending on the royalty clause in a lease. The landowner should negotiate for as high a royalty as can be arranged.
