Would the Philippines go to War over Sabah?

Centuries before Sabah came under the colonial administration of the United Kingdom, they were part of the Sulu Sultanate, which is now incorporated into the Philippines. So when the Federation of Malaysia was formed and they announced that Sabah would be incorporated into their nation, and not the Philippines, it threatened a direct conflict between the two nations.
This is the North Borneo Dispute, with Hindsight.

The Philippines claims Sabah on the basis that Sabah was said to be once under Sulu Sultanate. Descendants of former Sultan of Sulu claim that Sabah belonged to Sulu Sultanate because Sabah was given by Brunei the original owner to Sulu as a gift for purportedly helping Brunei to fight rebels. But Brunei refuted this claim and denied ever having given Sabah to Sulu. There was NO DOCUMENT regarding the transfer of ownership of Sabah from Brunei to Sulu signed by both Sultans. In fact on 29 December 1877, the Sultan of Brunei ceded the whole of Sabah to BNBC/British and concurrently appointed Baron Von Overback, the co-owner of BNBC as Maharajah of Sabah and Rajah of Sandakan and Gaya. This cession agreement was documented. When BNBC went to Sabah to begin their business, Sulu claimed that Sabah belonged to Sulu. BNBC agreed to enter a "pajak" agreement with Sulu after they were advised by their fellow businessmen in Hong Kong who advised that Sulu would attack them if they didn't have a deal with Sulu. This "pajak'' agreement was signed on 22 January 1878. BNBC understood that this "pajak" was a "cession", so did early generation of Sulu Sultan accepted it as "cession". Only later generation of descendants of former Sultan of Sulu claimed that the "pajak" agreement was meant to be "rent" or "lease''. Still there was NO DOCUMENT regarding the transfer of ownership of Sabah from Brunei to Sulu signed by both Sultans. The two above events led to an overlapping issue on Sabah. What ever it was, the above agreement and overlapping issue were superceded by later event. On 22 July 1878, the then Sultan of Sulu had relinquished all his possession and sovereignty of Sulu and it's territories including Sabah to Spain. The Sultanate of Sulu only remained as hereditary cultural and traditional entity without any sovereign territory. In 1885, to resolve overlapping issue on Sabah and other issues involving other islands, Britain, Spain and Germany arrived to an agreement known as Madrid Protocol in which Spain surrendered Sabah to Britain. As new owner of Sabah Britain had full control and sovereignty over Sabah and they could do what ever they wanted. Sulu could not claim anything because they had already relinquished the sovereignty of Sabah to Spain and Spain surrendered Sabah to Britain. What ever happened to Sabah after that was under British jurisdiction. Even though British had full control and sovereignty of Sabah, they still honoured the annual "cession money" payment stipulated in the "pajak'' agreement as consolation for the Sulu Sultan. So did Malaysia when formed in 1963, still honoured the annual "cession money" payment as consolation for the Sulu Sultan. The term "cession money" was used because to use the term "consolation" was felt to be too degrading. Thus the term "cession money" was continually used as used before by the British. Even the argument about the word "pajak" and it's meaning in the "pajak" agreement still favoured the British. The "pajak" agreement was written in classical Malay, in jawi script (Arabic alphabet). Malay is the national language of Malaysia and Brunei, and mother tongue of majority Malaysians and Brunei. In those days, Malay was also used by people of Sulu because Malay was the "lingua franca" of this region including the present Philippines. That was why the agreement was written in Malay. But over the years Sulu people had lost their Malay language (standard Malay) because of several reasons like colonisation by different European. This made Sulu relied on translation of the agreement. Things got worse when they translated it to Sulu's local language, be it Tagalog or Tausug, which was rather translation of another translation, that they translated it to their favour. The word "pajak" carried several meanings depending on the contact used in the sentence or passage. It could mean "tax, rent, pawn, lease, or cession". In the agreement between BNBC/ British and Sulu, the word "pajak" was used together with the phrase "selama-lamanya" which meant "forever". When "pajak" was used together with the phrase"selama-lamanya", in this contact the word "pajak" meant "cession". Cession means "the formal giving up of rights, property or territory by a state". When Sulu "pajak" Sabah to BNBC it meant Sulu ceded Sabah and it meant Sabah no longer belonged to Sulu. This was further clarified. There was a second agreement which was a supplementary to the first agreement known as "Confirmation of Cession of Certain Islands Agreement". It was regarding certain islands between Sabah and Sulu which they were not sure whether they were included in the first agreement or not. In this second agreement, the word "pajak" was no longer used because they thought it might lead to misunderstanding by later generation. Instead the word "menyerahkan" which meant "surrender" was used, and the annual payment was increased from 5,000 dollars to 5,300 dollars due to certain islands included. Another example where the Philippines generally or Sulu in particular misunderstood due to wrong translation or translation to their favour, was about the clause that the territory could not be transfered to another party. Yes, there was a clause that Sabah could not be transfered to another party "... without the consent of 'Duli Queen'...". The British translated "Duli Queen" as "Her Britannic Majesty", even though it was not correct literally but it was correct in the meaning. The "... Queen" was referring to Queen Victoria, the ruler of England / Britain at that time. But Sulu translated "Duli Queen" (or rather translated from a translation) as "Their Majesties' Government". This led to an understanding that "Duli Queen" was the ruler of Sulu. The question was since when Sulu as a Muslim state had a female as their ruler (Sultanah or Queen)? The above showed that North Borneo (Sabah) had indeed been ceded to Britain, that was why it could not be transfered to another party without the consent of 'Duli Queen' (Queen Victoria), the ruler of England/ Britain at that time. And further it was stated that any dispute about the agreement had to be referred to the "Consul General" being the Queen's representative in Borneo to be resolved. It meant that outside Arbitrator had no jurisdiction over the agreement. This fact became the main reason of judgement by Paris Court of Appeal in setting aside and annulling the Paris Court (lower court) ruling awarding the heirs of the defunct Sulu Sultanate. On 31 August 1963 Britain gave independence to Sabah and before that on 22 July 1963 Sarawak was given independence. The people of Sabah and Sarawak had exercised self determination to form Malaysia together with Malaya and Singapore. The sovereignty of Sabah and Sarawak as component states of Malaysia is intact and recognized internationally and recognized by the UN. This was confirmed and clearly stated in the United Nations Malaysia Mission Report "Final Conclusion of the Secretary-General", 14 September 1963. The last sentence of the report says: "I fervently hope that the people of these territories will achieve progress and prosperity, and find their fulfillment as component states of Malaysia". Full text of the report can even be accessed from the Philippines Government Gazette website. About the arbitration award by Paris Court to Sulu of US$14.92B, it had since been set aside and annulled by Paris Court of Appeal. Here is the latest situation. Latest as in June 2023: 1. June 6th - Paris Court of Appeal had set aside and annulled the previous Paris Court (lower court) ruling awarding the heirs of the defunct Sulu Sultanate. 2. June 27th - Dutch Court of Appeal in The Haque had dismissed a bid by eight descendants of former Sultan of Sulu to enforce the arbitration award by Paris Court (lower court) ruling, and dismissed an attempt to seize Malaysian assets following the Paris Court of Appeal decision. 3. Paris Court of Appeal also imposed on Sulu €100,000.00 (Euro currency) to be paid to Malaysia as legal cost. 4. Mean while in Luxembourg, a second attempt to seize Malaysian Petronas assets had been filed in Luxembourg Court due for hearing in September 2023 after the first attempt was dismissed. This will likely be dismissed too following the Paris Court of Appeal decision. Now is already November 2023, no news about Sulu's claim proceeding in Luxembourg Court. It looked like they withdrew their case when they acknowledged the Paris Court of Appeal decision. Malaysia had spent around RM32m, equivalent to about US$6.6m to deal with these Sulu claim cases in various European courts, in Madrid, Paris, Luxembourg and Netherlands. Apart from the €100,000.00 Sulu has to pay to Malaysia as legal cost, Malaysia is planning to sue Sulu for compensation for the loss of RM32m spent.

[@abdulwahidmdtahir3660]

Now is already February 2024, and still no news about Sulu claim proceeding in Luxembourg Court. It looked like they really withdrew their case when they acknowledged the Paris Court of Appeal decision. The Spanish Arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa's action of bringing the Sulu claim case in Paris Court when Madrid Court had already made decision in favour of Malaysia was seen by Spanish judicial authority as "Contempt of Court" and "Professional Intrusiveness". Following this, Stampa's appointment as an Arbitrator was revoked and annulled by Spanish Court. His arbitration award to Sulu of US$14.92B compensation was also annulled. Criminal proceeding was also taken against Stampa. Sulu and Stampa tried to appeal in higher Spanish courts but failed. And finally Spanish Constitutional Court upheld lower courts' decisions revoking Stampa's appoinment as an arbitrator and annulling his arbitration on Sulu's claim. On 11 December the rogue Arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa was charged in Madrid Court for "Contempt of Court" and "Professional Intrusiveness". On 8 January 2024, the court found him guilty and was sentence for 6 months imprisonment together with a ban from practicing as an Arbitrator for a year.

Filipino here. As much as I'd love to have sabah as part of our country again, I know that it won't flourish under our rule. I don't know if it's prospering under malaysia but the philippine's economy and political climate is much shittier than Malaysia so I guess it's much better for sabah to stay in Malaysia. The second reason is that the people of Sabah are largely muslims, just by knowing that, you'd know that they will feel much much closer to Malaysians since Malaysia is dominated by the muslims unlike my country the philippines which is dominated by the catholics. Overall, Sabah would be better under the Malaysian rule than the Filipinos. The history between the Filipinos and Malaysians go way back before the muslim and catholic missionaries came into our homelands so risking all of that just for this conflict won't benefit the both of us.

Everyone else whether UK or Malaysian government are just renting these lands and all are documented with receipts and paid rentals. This is an issue because Sabah for a large part of MYs economy and population. Nevertheless you have to pay overdue rentals and give the land to the owner when rental contract has been violated (non-payment of rentals for years). MY has benefited greatly from the use of this rented lands, all of this issue are but just abuse of the generosity of the Sulu Sultanate, violation of international agreements, and violation of international based rule of law.

Save our Dayak brothers and sisters from imperialism and colonialism carried out by the Malays, the peninsula. SABAH or North Kalimantan is not the crown of Great Britain. the betrayal committed by the sultanate of melaka against the sultanate of sulu violated common rights. Previously, Putrajaya promised a decent living guarantee for the Dayak tribes in the north. however, when northern Borneo lands were taken over to form the Federation of Malaysia. Putrajaya betrayed the Malaysia Agreement, in 1963 (Malaysia Agreement 1963/MA63). finally, the British North Borneo Company annexed the territories of Sarawak and Sabah to form the Commonwealth of Nations (former British colony) into a single unit, namely the federation of Malaysia, under full British rule in 1882. Until now, Sabah land has gas reserves of around 11 to 12 trillion cubic feet and 1.5 billion barrels of oil reserves, all of which are utilized by the state-owned company "PETRONAS". According to the prime minister of Sabah, oil and gas revenue sharing tends to be unfair and fraudulent under dictatorial and authoritarian regimes. The kingdoms of Sarawak and Sabah are described as the poorest, slums, and the people living there are second-class citizens. all oil resources of sabah and sarawak are allocated to downtown melaka for the PROSPERITY of the peninsular kingdom only. as the origin of sabah, if we disengage with that bad peninsula. I am sure that the spirit of our region will be more prosperous, economically advanced, strong, sovereign than other countries in the Southeast Asian region. STAND UP MY BROTHER!

The Philippines will never go to war over Sabah. Sabah is an issue between Malaysian government and private Filipino citizens. Going to war to resolve a territorial dispute is against UN laws and ASEAN laws that the Philippines have signed and sworn to uphold. Philippines will probably receive heavy sanctions from fellow ASEAN members and Western countries. Ordinary Filipinos will pay the price of such war. It's not the Filipinos that are living in Sabah, only few, so there's no emergency case that can force the Philippines to go to war against Malaysia. Most Filipinos doesn't even care about Sabah.

Any Filipino and Sulu supporters would point to the 1878 agreement and claim that Sabah was lease to the British North Borneo Company (BNBC). But there are numerous evidence to point that Sulu did not previously own Sabah as the self-proclaimed Sulu heirs would suggest, the claim that the Sultanate of Brunei gifted North Borneo (Sabah) to the Sultanate of Sulu as a gift can be disputed and debunked by the following evidence: - 1877 Agreement Prior to the 1878 Agreement which was signed between the British North Borneo Company (BNBC) and the Sultanate of Sulu, there was an agreement that was signed in 1877 between the Sultanate of Brunei and the British North Borneo Company. Within this agreement, the word “grant” has been used numerous times. It’s also stated within the agreement that the entirety of North Borneo (Sabah) will be ceded to the British North Borneo Company (BNBC) for 15,000 Mexican gold coins . With these statements, it’s clear that the Sulu Sultanate did not own North Borneo (Sabah) and that the 1878 agreement is redundant. I would also like to point out that within the 1878 agreement, the word “pajak” was meant to be stated a “grant and cede”, and within the receipts of the so-called “rent payments” are listed as cession payment. Cession means to give something away. With that this proves that the 1878 Agreement wasn’t a lease agreement but rather a cession agreement. But let’s say for the sake of argument that the Sultanate of Brunei gifted North Borneo (Sabah) to the Sultanate of Sulu and that the Sultanate of Sulu did indeed own Sabah and that the 1878 agreement was a lease agreement. Yet the Sultanate of Sulu has signed many agreements which relinquishes their rights over Sabah. These are the following: - 1878 Bases of Peace and Capitulation Agreement This agreement highlights the Sultanate of Sulu’s surrender of sovereignty to Spain. This means that anything happens whether internal or external affairs is under Spanish jurisdiction. - Article III of the Madrid Protocol of 1885 The Madrid Protocol of 1885 was an agreement between the United Kingdom, Germany, and Spain to recognise Spain’s rule over the Sulu Archipelago. There is a particular statement within Article III which states that Spain will relinquish all of their claims on Borneo. This alongside with the 1878 Bases of Peace and Capitulation Agreement as stated previously shows that the Sultanate of Sulu now no longer have any jurisdiction over North Borneo (Sabah). This also means that North Borneo (Sabah) is now under complete British jurisdiction. - 1903 Confirmation of Cession This agreement was signed between the Sultanate of Sulu and the British North Borneo Company (BNBC) in which it states that the Sultanate of Sulu will grant and cede North Borneo (Sabah) as well as additional islands which is how the payment of 5,000 Mexican gold coins which at this point has switched entirely to the Malayan dollar increased to 5,300 Malayan dollars. - 1915 Carpenter Agreement This agreement was signed between the Sultanate of Sulu and the United States. Within this agreement it states that any power that the Sultan of Sulu has over his land has been given to the Philippines which is under American-rule. -1930 Anglo-US Border Convention This agreement was signed between the United States and the United Kingdom. This agrement also define the border of North Borneo (Sabah) and the Philippines with the agreement being that North Borneo (Sabah) will remain under British jurisdiction and the Philippines being under American jurisdiction. -1963 Malaysia Agreement Finally this agreement was signed between the United Kingdom, Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak, and North Borneo (Sabah) to form a new country now known as Malaysia. Now that North Borneo (Sabah) has gained it’s independence from the UK, they opted to join this agreement and with the previous agreements signed, it means that North Borneo (Sabah) now have self-determination. And with the UK approving this agreement under the Malaysia Act of 1963 which has been passed in the British Parliament. This agreement has also been recognised by the United Nations and agreed on by the UN General Assembly and the UN Secretary-General himself. This means that Sabah is now rightful Malaysian territory. With all of these facts in place, it’s clear that Sabah rightfully belongs to Malaysia and neither the Philippines nor Sulu have any legal claims over Sabah.

It is not up to the Filipinos to decide.

Isn't this the same when the Sultan who once had control on Sabah is winning a war, then the Sulu joined in later to help the sultan? Just to be rewarded a piece of Sabah?

Malaysia being a British Client State supplied then the MNLF through the British with arms ang training and the cover story is about the Sabah claims. Malaysia has boots in Mindanao as part of the observation group along with Japan Australia and Indonesia. Its really all about the oil deposits around Sabah and probably the Sulu Sultanate knew about it and they ask for an increase in the rent. It was reported Malaysia stopped payments and the family now focused on PETRONAS. Why is it in any part of the world when UK is involved it caused problems in that part of the world.

Sabah belonged to the Philippines which was seized by the British, meaning that Sabah belonged to the British, not Malaysia. Now the British no longer cared about Sabah, and it was natural that the Philippines considered Sabah their territory.

[@themalaysianpatriot3099]

Any Filipino and Sulu supporters would point to the 1878 agreement and claim that Sabah was lease to the British North Borneo Company (BNBC). But there are numerous evidence to point that Sulu did not previously own Sabah as the self-proclaimed Sulu heirs would suggest, the claim that the Sultanate of Brunei gifted North Borneo (Sabah) to the Sultanate of Sulu as a gift can be disputed and debunked by the following evidence: - 1877 Agreement Prior to the 1878 Agreement which was signed between the British North Borneo Company (BNBC) and the Sultanate of Sulu, there was an agreement that was signed in 1877 between the Sultanate of Brunei and the British North Borneo Company. Within this agreement, the word “grant” has been used numerous times. It’s also stated within the agreement that the entirety of North Borneo (Sabah) will be ceded to the British North Borneo Company (BNBC) for 15,000 Mexican gold coins . With these statements, it’s clear that the Sulu Sultanate did not own North Borneo (Sabah) and that the 1878 agreement is redundant. I would also like to point out that within the 1878 agreement, the word “pajak” was meant to be stated a “grant and cede”, and within the receipts of the so-called “rent payments” are listed as cession payment. Cession means to give something away. With that this proves that the 1878 Agreement wasn’t a lease agreement but rather a cession agreement. But let’s say for the sake of argument that the Sultanate of Brunei gifted North Borneo (Sabah) to the Sultanate of Sulu and that the Sultanate of Sulu did indeed own Sabah and that the 1878 agreement was a lease agreement. Yet the Sultanate of Sulu has signed many agreements which relinquishes their rights over Sabah. These are the following: - 1878 Bases of Peace and Capitulation Agreement This agreement highlights the Sultanate of Sulu’s surrender of sovereignty to Spain. This means that anything happens whether internal or external affairs is under Spanish jurisdiction. - Article III of the Madrid Protocol of 1885 The Madrid Protocol of 1885 was an agreement between the United Kingdom, Germany, and Spain to recognise Spain’s rule over the Sulu Archipelago. There is a particular statement within Article III which states that Spain will relinquish all of their claims on Borneo. This alongside with the 1878 Bases of Peace and Capitulation Agreement as stated previously shows that the Sultanate of Sulu now no longer have any jurisdiction over North Borneo (Sabah). This also means that North Borneo (Sabah) is now under complete British jurisdiction. - 1903 Confirmation of Cession This agreement was signed between the Sultanate of Sulu and the British North Borneo Company (BNBC) in which it states that the Sultanate of Sulu will grant and cede North Borneo (Sabah) as well as additional islands which is how the payment of 5,000 Mexican gold coins which at this point has switched entirely to the Malayan dollar increased to 5,300 Malayan dollars. - 1915 Carpenter Agreement This agreement was signed between the Sultanate of Sulu and the United States. Within this agreement it states that any power that the Sultan of Sulu has over his land has been given to the Philippines which is under American-rule. - 1930 Anglo-US Border Convention This agreement was signed between the United States and the United Kingdom. This agrement also define the border of North Borneo (Sabah) and the Philippines with the agreement being that North Borneo (Sabah) will remain under British jurisdiction and the Philippines being under American jurisdiction. - 1963 Malaysia Agreement and Malaysia Act of 1963 Finally this agreement was signed between the United Kingdom, Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak, and North Borneo (Sabah) to form a new country now known as Malaysia. Now that North Borneo (Sabah) has gained it’s independence from the UK, they opted to join this agreement and with the previous agreements signed, it means that North Borneo (Sabah) now have self-determination. And with the UK approving this agreement under the Malaysia Act of 1963 which has been passed in the British Parliament. This agreement has also been recognised by the United Nations and agreed on by the UN General Assembly and the UN Secretary-General himself. This means that Sabah is now rightful Malaysian territory. With all of these facts in place, it’s clear that Sabah rightfully belongs to Malaysia and neither the Philippines nor Sulu have any legal claims over Sabah.

Honestly, any Filipino wanting war over Sabah should really re-think their life decisions. Supporting this type of campaign shows how irrational someone could be, even when the document is presented in front of them. The Philippines should abandon its "claims" on Sabah, as they do not represent the Sulu Sultanate, but the Filipino people themselves. This dispute is seriously the most idiotic thing ever in Southeast Asia, and has the same vibes as China claiming the SCS because "historical pretext". Sabah never belonged to the Philippines.

Looks like some people readily want to wage war. Personally if war does happen (which I don't think it will, unless there are invisible hands that wanted to divide the region), I am more concerned about the people of both countries (and surrounding countries) who will be directly involved in the war. For Malaysia, it'll be Sabahan (obviously), some parts of Sarawak. For others, Brunei, and parts of Kalimantan even. For the Philippines, I see that the whole islands will be at stake, considering they have China looking in on them. Just to satisfy the greed of several people, millions will get the backlash. Malaysia sees this issue as some party with a hidden agenda who wants to divide the region. Someone or some entity with big money. Because the Sulu themselves are not rich, not rich enough to spend money and time to fight at international courts against a country. Someone must be helping them monetarily and advised them of legal matters. These are the 'invisible hands'. Those who want to wage war are blind to this.

[@FederalistDegtyarev]

1:59 correction This is where the issue begins. The Sultan of Brunei never hand over the North part of Sabah to the Sultan of Sulu and still denied it until today.

And claimed they won the war without any involvement of the Sulu state.

No. Because the Sulu Sultanate's basis of Sabah's ownership was never favoured to let the Philippine government interfere with their affair on it, as they leaned more on their confidence in Sabah's affair with Malaysia. The Sultanate and Malaysia diverged only when Sabah was annexed by Malaysia without the Sultanate's consent.With little control or knowledge of Sabah's existence, the Phil govt acts and feels the same way it does over Sabah, despite the fact that the govt recognises Sabah as a part of the Phil due to the Sulu Sultanates' late affiliation of Sabah with the Phil govt in the 60s.
