Not happy with your Filipino passport? Be patient! Pretty soon, you may just ask for an MILF (Republic?) passport

We are focusing on our debacle with China (and rightly so!!) forgetting the imminent danger to our sovereignty rights down south and that there is a realistic danger that we will find our Republic with two main provinces instead of three very soon -- and it is happening before our very own eyes!

You see, in the run up to the "new political entity" that is being designed in the soon-to-be-carved Mindanao, the Republic and the MILF will "power-share" almost everything  (outlined in the Decision Points signed by the triumvirate Chief Philippine Appeaser and Peacenicker Mr Marvic Leonen, Chief Rebel and MILF Chair Mr Iqbal and Facilitator and Chief Trouble Maker Tengku Mohammed of Malaysia), but the following are reserved for the State: 

(a) defence and external security, 

(b) foreign policy, 

(c) common market and global trade (Malaysia will be exlaiming "Yeeeehaaa! on this specific sub-point no doubt) 

(d) coinage and monetary policy, 

(e) citizenship and naturalisation (good heavens! Does that mean that many of us can opt for MILF passports soon???), 

(f) postal service. 

Fine!!! But where the State is expected to exercise sovereignty and ensure protection of the citizens of the republic is not clear because there IS NO MENTION OF internal security. And why was that omitted? Easy to surmise that someone, somewhere in that "peace talks panel" objected vehemently to power sharing in matters related to internal security -- a prelude to that new "political entity" (as detailed in Decision Point number 7) being off limits to the Armed Forces of the Republic of the Philippines. 

The absence of "internal security" point is rather alarming.

But hey, things seem to be headed the MILF way (and by extension, Malaysia way), i.e., power sharing. The prospect of independence for a vast part of Mindanao may just be in the horizon and soon the MILF may be empowered to naturalise non-Filipinos and award MILF Republic citizenship which may just be an advantage to those who believe that their Filipino passport ain't good enough... they could then opt for an MILF Republic passport!

NB: Extrapolation based on letter by  Ustadz/Prof. SHARIFF MOHSIN JULABBI, who signed  as Amer/Chairman, MILF-BMA TO THEN MALAYSIA PRIME MINISTER on ‎1st September 2004; extracts below (highlights ours):

At this juncture, only two options hereunder have been left for us and we are required already to decide and choose our prerogative, by all means: 

1) Return back Sabah to its rightful owners and be under the Federation of Malaysia as a compromise. We are considerate enough; we believe it is a win-win solution more appropriate to both Malays Bomeputra and the Suluans as brothers of the same religion. Allah says: “Muslims are just a single brotherhood.

2) The cessation or disintegration of the entire Sulu Archipelago to include Zamboanga Peninsula, Palawan and North Borneo (Sabah) from both the Philippine Republic and the Federation of Malaysia and be created an Independent State as Sultanate of Sulu & North Borneo with her own government and sovereignty. 

To avoid bloodshed and for legal purposes, all past Treaties entered into between the US Governments and the Sulu & North Borneo Sultans be used as vital instruments for the creation of such State. Otherwise, worse will come to worse, God forbid. We should get lessons from Iraq and Afghanistan which are severely devastated now owing to the obstinacy and stubbornness of their leaders who imposed tyrant rules and dictatorship just for personal aggrandizement. These are all charged to experience. I am confident that relinquishing Sabah to her legitimate owners is inevitable.

Marvic Leonen's outstanding feat: peacenicks with MILF, appeases Malaysia and buries national Sabah claim in one sitting!

Mr Marvic Leonen (shown in picture), chief peacnicker for the Philippine government panel is shortsighted and naive!

A chance for peace? You can't be serious! 

Alright, let me rephrase that... There possibly is a chance for peace -- agree, after all Mr Marvic Leonen has announced a breakthrough in the peace talks between GPH and MILF. The price of peace is the nation's willfull obliteration of national respect and dignity in favour of Malaysia.

Thanks to Mr Leonen's brilliant 10 Decision Points of Principle signed in April this year between the Malaysia-backed rebel MILF group and the Philippine government designed to allow for the Philippines to give up sovereignty over a portion of Mindanao and hand it over to the MILF and Malaysia, there just might be "peace" but even then, there is no guarantee (Malaysia just might want to grab the whole of Mindanao.). Never mind that by doing so, Mr Leonen has unilaterally given up the nation's Sabah claim...

Did I not predict that with government's timidity about the nation's standing Sabah claim, Malaysia will walk into Mindanao, land grab a huge portion of it via their MILF cronies? Well, it is happening now... 

And Mr Marvic Leonen speaks of a chance for peace? Mr Leonen himself trumpeted how our Armed Forces bent over backwards to accomodate the desideratas of the Malaysia-inspired MILF. So, of course when your Armed Forces bend over backward to accomodate the desideratas of a band of rebels, that is precursor to peace no doubt!

Mr Leonen said, “In an unprecedented manner, you saw the full cooperation of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Philippine National Police to make your consultation a success.” 

That's fine... we can live with the Armed Forces bending over backward to their natural enemies but when the MILF chief himself "expressed optimism a breakthrough could be achieved on the issue of transition" because he had more faith in the abilities and the negotiation facilitation prowess of Tengku Dato Abd Ghafar Tengku Mohamed from Malaysia, then we have a real problem.

Mr Leonen, we believe you have been not only been shortsighted, you also have been extremely naive because the "peace" that you are trumpeting today is proof that you have allowed Malaysia to screw the Philippines through and through. And when the rest of patriotic Filipinos finally realise how you sold our sovereignty out, God help us all!

Sabah report: West Malaysians still control Sabah and Sarawak, allocate top posts to themselves

West Malaysians (we call them Peninsular Malayasians in this blog) still control Sabah and Sarawak civil service posts.

Reason? West Malaysians (who call Sabahans and natives of Sarawak, East Malaysians) -- and that includes Malaysia PM Najib Razak, do not trust Sabahans and Sarawakans for that matter. Reminder: current PM Najib is the son of former PM Tunku Abdul Razak who said he did not trust Filipinos back in the 70s.

West Malaysians need to control -- and do control, Sabah in order to be able (1) to exploit the resources of Sabah to fatten up West Malaysia and build KL, (2) to ensure that UMNO, West Malaysia's ruling coalition party, wins every single election and Sabah is key as the province holds the most number of seats in West Malaysia Parliament, thanks to ex-PM Mahathir who, during his tenure, flooded Sabah with flying voters promising relevant Malaysia papers to non-Malays in the 1980s, including to Filipinos; he then obliged the flying voters to vote UMNO.

From the report by Free Malayasia Today: West M'sians still control Sabah and Sarawak:

“Posts have been given to Sabahans in recent years, but this is just an eye-wash. For over 40 years, posts have hardly been given to Sabahans. 

“Even if they have been given director posts, they don’t have any power,” he said.For example, Majimbun said that most district police chiefs were not even Sabahans.

West Malaysians do not have a high regard for Sabahans believing that Sabahans still 'live in the dark ages.' How do we know? Because West Malaysians have told us often enough of their contempt for Sabahans whom they believe to be unsophisticated, hence inferior, and are therefore incapable of managing Sabah.

We call that sort of political doctrine, colonisation. We will be happy to help Sabahans establish control of Sabah -- as always, it is imperative to remind Sabahans the goold old Latin adage that has inspired many sovereignty defenders in history: NEMO NOS IMPUNE LACESSIT! (No one hits us with impunity.)
