Philippines to snatch Sabah from Malaysia in gov't shift
Quote:
While most Filipinos believe that the Philippines is composed only of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao, historical evidence would prove that Sabah belongs to the Philippines.
“Let us keep in mind that Sabah is a part of the Republic of the Philippines and there are documentary evidence which can withstand the test of United Nations,” Pimentel told the members of the Senate Committee on Constitutional Revision of Codes headed by Senate President Franklin Drilon.
Drilon’s committee started a hearing on proposals to amend or revise the 1987 Constitution, including the possible shift to federalism from the present unitary system.
...
But Filipinos must not forget that Sabah belongs to the Philippines, otherwise future generations would just look at the country as Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
...
Duterte, before he assumed the presidency, vowed to pursue the Philippine claim to Sabah, which is currently under Malaysia.
Or the Philippines should just let Sulu and the Muslim region secede and join the federation of Malaysia. There will be peace in Mindanao when that happens.
