*SHATTERED HOPES AND BROKEN DREAMS*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- *A Memorandum on the Fate of Sabah in the Malaysian Federation *--------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Presented by DANIEL JOHN JAMBUN, Esq. At the House of Commons, London, the United Kingdom* *March 9, 2010* --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good afternoon all Honourable Members of the House, ladies and gentlemen. First of all, I would like to record our most sincere gratitude having been given this honour of presenting this memorandum before this esteemed House. Today, marks a moment of honour for the people of Sabah, the former North Borneo, for having been accorded this rare opportunity to present a Memorandum a matter of grave significance, a matter which affect our fate as the people of the Federation of Malaysia. We see this as a historical event, a moment granted by God’s grace, in which we can communicate under this honourable roof, to reminisce a milestone of history half a century ago which was followed by sad events that in too many instances happened with numerous misgivings. For decades now, we the people of Sabah, have been haunted by ghosts of history dating back to August 31, 1963, the day we gained independence from Great Britain. Malaysia was conceptualised and constituted with the best of promises, endearing in us hopes and dreams for a greater future. It is with sadness that I stand here to witness that what had transpired since September 16, 1963 had been a series of events that had led us to the present situation in which we can justly proclaim to be a situation of shattered hopes and broken dreams! *HERE* <http://1426.blogspot.com/>
