"UNITED BORNEO FRONT" is the need of the hour
In the current world scenario, a country cannot live in isolation. Malaysia federation has literally been transformed into a global village wherein the interests of Sarawak, Sabah and Malaya are intertwined. This is the very reason behind formation of several domestic and local-based unions so as to enable various countries in a Malaysia federation (Sarawak, Sabah and Malaya) help coordinate with each other effectively for mutual gains.
Numerous domestic organizations either in the National level (Malaysia federation) or locally-based level (Sarawak-based, Sabah-based, Malaya-based) are all active within the framework of their own policies.
Unfortunately, none of these organizations have so far succeeded in weeding out evils from where we live. The only rational thing to do is therefore for people who espouse goodness; love and affection and get united against those groups that are allied with evil.
If the Sarawakians and Sabahans wished to emerge as a powerful, stable and prosperous bloc among the comity of nations, it must act as one.
The importance of unity has become more important in the current scenario. Absence of unity is preventing a common voice being heard from Sarawak and Sabah. These divides have left innocent Sarawakians and Sabahans at the mercy of others and literally unprotected. Helpless women, children and old people in Sarawak and Sabah all waiting for their brethren to save them from persecution. These innocent people are the responsibility of the Sarawakians and Sabahans more than anyone else.
Sarawakians and Sabahans need to forge unity among their ranks and to strive together if they are wronged.
We need to wage an intellectual struggle and get united against injustice and violence of human rights. It is high time Sarawakians and Sabahans formed an alliance on the lines of the United Borneo Front envisaging broader economic, political, military, social and cultural collaboration. If one studies the idea carefully, he/she would be surprised that the geostrategic location of the entire Borneo bloc makes the idea viable and easy to implement and if we pool all our resources and ease trade and travel regimens, the results will be beyond our imaginations. We will have an edge over all such unions, as ours will be a union of love, friendship and willingness. In that respect, the United Borneo Front will be a grand union of peace envied by all.
All the political parties and NGO that joins the United Borneo Front must promise to respect the independence, equality and sovereignty of the states in their common territory. In this way, member countries will maintain their own state structures but be able to act as a common and a single nation which is Malaysian Borneo toward the outside world on those matters on which they agree to collaborate. Member states should be independent in their internal affairs, and must encourage resolution of disagreements through peaceful means. Protection of minorities be ensured to gain respect worldwide. Of course, the tolerance inherent, peace, and the conception of love and union will be the reference points for the establishment of the fundamental principles of this union.
Malaysia federation has existed since 16 September 1963. In its present form, however, the federation is far from possessing the characteristics of this union of love we just proposed. The effectiveness of this conglomeration is still questionable.
It was founded to resolve the problems of Sarawakain and Sabahan and establish cooperation among countries. Unfortunately, it has miserably failed in resolving issues facing the Borneo territory or in emerging as a strong voice supporting Borneo causes.
In the wake of the unrest in Sarawak and Sabah in the Malaysia federation, foreign powers (Malaya) had to fill the gap of authority and power and intervene to resolve the internal issues of the Borneo territory. This is very saddening.
What needs to be done is the immediate and the imminent establishment of a voluntary union (United Borneo Front) that resolves problems, and looks at the development issues and problem resolution on a constant basis rather than just meeting once a year. It is time to act together to build Borneo territory in which Sarawakain and Sabahan live in peace and tranquility in a city constructed with artistry, in which quality of life is raised to the highest possible level and where all of us embrace each other wholeheartedly. This is perhaps the only way to get rid of the negative impact of the so-called spring that has marred all prospects of peace and prosperity in the Borneo territory.
