Why Malaya keeps on wanting to negotiate MA63 for eternity?
Makes sense. My main concern is the theft of more than 1 trillion RM based on current value, based on constitution. The MA63 has more conditions such as 100% Borneonisation of all civil service which has monetary and other losses to Sabah as well. Imagine the salaries that Sabahan loses to Mslayans working in Sabah. In fact together with this clause, the 40% special grant should exclude salaries to Malaysn people because those money cannot be treated as Sabahan money.
Since 1963, Sabah has never truly recovered its autonomy because the system that was supposed to protect it under the Malaysia Agreement 1963 was dismantled — quietly, legally, and deliberately — by federal centralisation after 1963.
Malaysia knows this.
That is why Sabah today does not ask for administrative reform.
Sabah demands sovereignty.
Why Malaysia still negotiates even if MA63 is void
If MA63 is void ab initio, Malaysia never acquired lawful sovereignty over Sabah under international law.
Yet Malaysia still negotiates — because refusal would legally amount to:
• Illegal occupation
• A continuing breach of international law
• Exposure to sanctions, diplomatic isolation, and international litigation
This is not theoretical.
It has happened before.
It is exactly what occurred when Indonesia was compelled to negotiate over East Timor,
and when South Africa was forced to relinquish Namibia.
In both cases, the occupying power exercised “constitutional control” — yet the international community ruled that control illegal and demanded negotiations for decolonisation.
The legal truth
Malaysia’s continued presence in Sabah rests on MA63.
If MA63 collapses in law, so does Malaysia’s title.
That is why Malaysia negotiates.
Not out of goodwill —
but because international law leaves it no choice.
Sabah is not a state begging for autonomy.
Sabah is a people reclaiming sovereignty.
