Thai-Japanese Treaty, 1940 This treaty has an important content: it confirms that both Thailand and Japan remain close allies. and will respect each other's territorial integrity which means They will not invade each other's territory. They also agree to share information and discuss issues important to both sides. In addition, if either side is attacked by a third party, The other party will never help the attacker.

8:30 Wrong information here. The White Rajah of Sarawak was not under the British rule. Sarawak was then a sovereign nation and unlike european power, the Brooke family actually helps to industrialised the country, not for exploitation. During that time Sarawak is only a protectorate country, which means while it is independent and free to control it's own resources, being a British protectorate gives Sarawak army security as well as representing them in external affairs. Colony on the other hand means that British are free to exploit local resources which wasn't the case. Only in the 1940s is Sarawak occupied by the Japanese and British. More info: Before the Japanese occupation, the White Rajah wanted to give back the land to the people after a hundred years of ruling. However, as the war broke out, it totally ruined the economy of Sarawak. This leads to the Brooke secceeding Sarawak to the British government to help regain some of it's economy back before giving the country independence. By the 1960s, Sarawak got it's independence by the British Colony after years of establishing their self governance.

[@0900370pian]

Rajah Brooke ceded not seceding Sarawak to the British Crown. Wrong choice of word there bro. Anyway, becoming a protectorate of British or other colonial powers back then means that you no longer have full sovereignty. Sure the British recognized Sarawak as "independent" nation under Brooke but we all know Rajah of Sarawak cannot establish foreign relationship with other countries except with permission from the British government. A sovereign nation should have total freedom to establish foreign relationship but that's not the case for Sarawak. Nonetheless, Sarawak did enjoy autonomy from the British. Like you stated, this somewhat prevent the British to exploit Sarawak's resources but not fully. Case in point the oil discovery in Miri in early 1900s. The rights for oil exploration were later given to Anglo-Saxon Oil Company in 1909 (later became a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell in the same year).

[@aaron1983]

Sabah belongs to the Philippines though. Diplomatic notes during the Spanish American conflict, multiple protests before 1963, and continuous representations made because a contract exists with Malaysia paying the heirs of the Sultan until modern times, showing the sovereignty lay with them which was transferred to the Philippine government in the 1970s. Malaysia will now pretend this does not exist by reneging on contracts made with the heirs of the Sultan of Sulu, how honorable is that compared to what Russia does with western territories it covets. A disgrace to their fellow Muslims in the Sultan of Sulu.

​@@Grismithi think it was because of cultural strength. Timorese might've been rather tolerant to cultural changes while the Filipinos was more conservative

[@luelzone7474]

@@Grismith Spanish people were just hardcore in imposing their culture and all. In fact, there was also a galleon trade between Manila and Acapulco, Mexico, which contributed significantly to the westernization of the country.

​@@Grismith There were more European settlers in the Philippines than in any other Asian country. My family is from Cebu and historically records over 650 Spanish families settled there. Latin roots are deep in the Philippines, especially in Old Manila and Cebu.

​@@Andrew-gn9qp yes. That's why many people in cebu have spanish ancestry same in other parts of visayas.

people of this region of the online space. Know that there is a God, and know that this God has been with your father, and his father and the father before him. All generations of humanity and all peoples shall proclaim him YHWH. God of Jacob, Esau, Solomon, Moses and the glorious ethiopian kings at gondar. Return to his kingdom, you lost children

West Papua is a victim of OUR governments and ongoing illegal conduct of UN employees. Because the UN Secretary General had been killed and replaced by Indonesia's Burmese friend U Thant, on 21st September 1962 our governments voted to give the new UN Secretary General U Thant permission to invade West Papua and appoint Indonesia as the current administrator. Our governments were using article 85 part 1 of the UN Charter to authorise this; article 85 part 2 requires that the Secretary General tell the UN Trusteeship Council about the trusteeship agreement ('New York Agreement') so that the Council can then begin its article 87 & 88 duties making yearly UN reports to protect & promote independence of the colony (West Papua). In violation of the UN Charter, U Thant never told the Trusteeship Council; and nor have any of the subsequent Secretary Generals. IF UN employees were honest, they would insist on revealing General Assembly resolution 1752 invasion & subjugation of West Papua to the UN Trusteeship Council, to whom they should have reported it in 1962.

The British leave border issue in asean. Because the northern borneo actually part of the Philippines but the British instead they gave it back to Malaya which is are now Malaysia

[@bakabon114]

The Brit was not only leaving border issue, but also juxtaposing many ethnic and racial groups chaotically in nation-state. Rohingya issue is one of them in Myanmar.
