Four days ago, the scrimmage
started between the Sulu Royal Army and Malaysian Forces which at least 60 were
killed from both sides.
Many Filipinos working in Sabah
are forced to evacuate back in the country in fear that they would be wedged in
tension in Sabah.
In existence of this, the President told
Sultan Kiram to go into his people and to take down their weapons. The
President threatened Sultan Kiram and his Royal Army that he will file a case
because of tension they started.
"Huwag namang ubusin 'yung mga kababayan natin dun and
huwag din ilagay sa alanganin 'yung 800,000 Pinoys living and working
there," According to Hontiveros.
According to Risa Hontiveros and Alan Peter Cayetano, there
is a solid basis for the claiming of Philippines in Sabah that needed to
undergo in right due process of law.
"Whether it's China or whether it's Malaysia at may
claim tayo, we should attack it na pareho. We should be as aggressive and as
diplomatic," said by Cayetano.
The Sultanate of Sulu called a unilateral
ceasefire and implemented as a cessation of hostilities but still the Malaysia
didn’t intact to launch offensive operations.
Not as least 50 were arrested in Sabah
connected to suspected supporters of Kiram.
The members of the Sultanate of Sulu in Sabah
were at least given a time until midnight for them to leave.
The President is calling the attention of the
leaders in Sabah during his prescon to leave the place. According to Dayang
Dayang Sitti Jacel Kiram, their decision will be the same. The people in Sabah
go their “not to wage war, para hindi manggulo, to settle their peacefully at
dahil sa hirap na din na nararanasan ng mga kapatid nating Muslim.” said by
Princess Kiram
The Muslim people in Sabah have no intension
to take Sabah.
“Ang pangit ng term na AGAWIN” said by
Princess Kiram.
If we closely analyze the history of Sabah,
the Sabah has never been owned by Malaysia, it is originally owned by Brunei.
Now, it was given by Brunei to Sultanato of Sulu as a sort of gratitude, as a
thanksgiving of Sultanate of Brunei when the Sultanate of Sulu helps them. So
it was never owned by Malaysia, said by Princess Kiram.
The Concern of the Government is maybe it may
lead to violence when they didn’t leave Sabah. When the time comes the Sabah
people will fight for their lives, they are prepared and accepted what will
happen to them. They would fight for their cost, what they are fighting for a
very long time. The people in Sabah are free to choose if they will stay or not
for that not to be involved anymore, no one volunteers to go. They wanted to
fight for the costs until the end.
Princess Kiram is bound by the constitution
and its laws including Philippines renouncing war as instrument of national
policy. “Hindi naman giyera ang pinunta natin sa Sabah e. Yes, we’re bound by
the constitution, Yes, we are bound by the Philippine Law. Sana nga maramdaman
namin na parte kami ng Pilipinas, prinoproteksyonan kami ng salili nating
Gobyerno, sana lang maramdaman naming ‘yon.” said by Princess Kiram
The Government is studying the possible
infractions of the Sultanato.
The Department of Foreign Affairs expressly
said that there is no other way to prevent the continual killing of life in
Sabah, but to take down the weapons of Raja Muda Kiram’s groups. But according
to Malacañang, President Aquino is trying to find a peaceful solution to the
standoff in Sabah.
