So, it has been solidly confirmed that Malaysia lost Pulau Batu Puteh to Singapore but in return we get back two little peebles. Peebles or rocks do not really matters. But, will the map of Malaysia going to shrink further in future?
But the people believe that with the best-justified evidence, hiring the best-imported lawyers together with our controversial Peguam Negara, sometime doesn’t help on our side. There’s another possible reason why we lose the case.
Sometimes, we don’t need the best panel of lawyers, the solid evidence to prove our claims on something. The local and foreign policy and smartness of the country’s leaders also are important. After our outspoken Dr. M retired, our sleepy Dollah and his bunch of ministers have been making a lot of jokes that expose our weaknesses to the world. The less intellect and foolishness of our government in the eyes of the world might have also contributed to this. This external factor might have some effect on the decision of the judges to award the sovereignty not the right country that deserves it.
With internal fighting going own, within UMNO, no doubt that the history will repeat itself once again to the time of Malay monarchists and how British Colonial forced the Sultan to surrender their power and states by exploiting some of events and culprit ministers in the government.
Imagine if our country, under the ruling of a weak government politically, socially and economically in future, don’t be surprised if our neighbouring countries will dare to make the following claims at ICJ:
1. Philipines lobbies for Sabah state and its cluster of islands based on the history of Sulu kingdom. Misuari has started his ridiculous claim. (Read Malaysia Today
2. Brunei on Sarawak, based on the history with Brooke’s dynasty since its oil is going to deplete soon.
3. Singapore’s expansion plan to Peninsular Malaysia through manipulating their solid claims on IDR. Another repeats of Pulau Batu Putih.
With the help of some culprit or ousted politicians to provide evidence, don’t be surprised if we will soon become loser at ICJ in future. By then, we will draft out a new map of Malaysia.
