Falkland to vote in a referendum whether to stick with UK or not

STANLEY, Falkland Islands (AP) — Britain is hoping this weekend's referendum on the political status of the Falkland Islands will push the United States and other neutral governments off the fence in its territorial dispute with Argentina over the remote South Atlantic archipelago.

Malaysia a failure in Sabah, Sarawak

By Joe Fernandez

It’s patently pointless getting into rhetoric and polemics on Malaysia in Sabah and Sarawak, at this juncture, in the wake of the Lahad Datu Standoff. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has vowed that Sabah will remain forever within Malaysia. Apologists for his Administration swear that Malaysia was properly constituted in Sabah as well.

Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet,
Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God’s great Judgment Seat;
Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) in The Ballad of East and West

Malaya on the one hand, and Sabah and Sarawak on the other hand, are poles apart.

INANAM : The hoo-haa by Umno supporters against opposition colleague Tian Chua for his unfavourable comment to Umno on the Sulu gunmen in Sabah is just but an effort to distract people's attention from the real issue at hand.

If there is a leader or leaders needed to be barred from entering Sabah, iit must not be Tian Chua but Mahathir Mohamad and all his Umno leaders, including Najib Eazak, in cahoot with Mahathir's pet project of issuing Malaysian documents to these illegal immigrants from Sulu.

A former aide of PKR women chief Zuraida Kamaruddin is claiming that he is being “hunted down” by the party and its leaders after details of his letter which had called for the removal of PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail had become public.

Mohd Fareez Kamal Intidzam, 24, now wants the police to provide him with security as he feels his safety is at stake.

“I am being hunted down by certain people who I think are either supporters or people acting on behalf of Wan Azizah.

“Since the details of my letter became public, they had even managed to track me down to the hotel in which I was staying,” he said in a statement today.

‘There was no Sabah referendum’

By Luke Rintod of FMT

Any talks between Malaysia and the Philippines must include
Sabah because only the people of Sabah can decide what
 they want, says Jeffrey Kitingan.

KOTA KINABALU: United Borneo Front (UBF) chairman Jeffrey Kitingan has disputed the context of the 1962 referendum which academics and Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak claim confirmed Sabahans’ desire to be part of Malaysia.

“There has never been a referendum on Sabah as stated by some academics.

“In fact, the so-called referendum in 1962-63 was actually only a sampling survey of less than four percent of the Sabah population,” he said in response to Najib’s comments on Sabah yesterday.
