Are Sabah and Sarawak State Nationalism Doomed? | Prof James Chin on MA63, Autonomy, and Malaysia

Описание: Are Sabah and Sarawak forever doomed to be second-class states in Malaysia?

Despite contributing so much—oil, gas, land, culture, and strength—Sabah and Sarawak remain trapped in a system that still hasn’t delivered the equality promised under the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63). This video dives into the real reason why, according to Professor James Chin, Putrajaya would never let Sabah or Sarawak leave the Federation… not without bloodshed.

If you care about Sabah state nationalism, Sarawak’s fight for autonomy, or simply want to understand the grievances East Malaysians have endured for decades, then watch this. Share this with your friends from Sabah and Sarawak—especially the ones who feel like their voices have been silenced for too long.

This isn't just a conversation. It's a challenge to the silence. It’s a confrontation with history. And maybe, just maybe, it’s the beginning of something braver.

What do you think? Is it time to revisit the terms of MA63? Is state nationalism doomed, or just waiting for the right moment?

Thanks for watching, and see you in the next one!
