You know what? North Borneo are much more prosper during the administration of British. Even the British colonise us, they brought many developments, introducing technologies and improving economies (but did not destroying the mother nature massively like today) together with the good healthcare here. During our English still good.. But now? No one can denied this as already been told by our late grandfather and grandmother, if the British still had enough time to administer this territory and give a late independence like Brunei. Wonder how we can prosper like Singapore or Hong Kong. You can't imagine how the success will be isn't it?.. With better internet like in New Zealand, better healthcare, better environment care, no religious bigots... Comparing today... with illegal immigrants troublemaker issues, corruption between Malaysian leaders, manipulation of East Malaysian natural resources to West Malaysia, leaders who only know to manipulate and fill their own pockets but did not care of their peoples.. Malaysian leaders should open their eyes, look how the West Germany treat East Germany since their merger!
Many Mindanaoan refugees in Sabah ask me, why can't Mindanao be prospered like Sabah? Well if you continue to have war and use "crime" as daily business, inciting hatred on each other, you can't be prospered like your neighbour. Unlike there, Muslim, Christian as well the Chinese here lived happily without any conflicts and many of us practicing interracial marriage between different ethnic groups. Half of my family are Muslim, while half are Christian. But we don't have any problems at all with that. If someone come to our place to disturbing peace, bringing religious hatred, crime cultures, he/she doesn't belong here to lived. From my observation, Mindanao actually can be prosper like Brunei because your lands is rich with natural resources. But please eliminate all terrorism, crimes and greedy cultures, then you can be living in peacefully. Furthermore, the existent of multiple Sultans (who want to hold power) is ridiculous especially when the Government of the Philippines still recognise them (although based on historical research many of them are actually fake sultans), no wonder there is always no "unity" and continuosly became "poor" there.

Government! Please speed up the internet by allowing more investment from other countries if you can't afford the cost to improve our country internet. Try to visit the rural areas in Sabah (rather than focusing to the city), I had use 8Mbps in Sabah since long time ago for MYR160+ [1] (around U$45/46)? Very expensive but slow, so ridiculous (comparing to high speed and cheaper internet in Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam)! Don't just keeping silent to a monopoly systems by Telekom Malaysia as well the monopoly of Astro in our television! We need more free channels and the most importantly we can access other ASEAN channels too like Brunei, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Burma and East Timor! Don't just broadcast Indonesia and Philippines entertainment programmes as we had enough of this since I was a kid!! Isn't the government initiatives is want to strengthen the relations between our Southeast Asian neighbours? Remember! Quality first!

Penang has got two bridges, but Labuan until this day still didn't even get one bridge!?? Are the politicians sleeping on this issues??
We don't care what is the religion or ethnicities of our leaders as long they have a respect to all ethnic groups, religions, cultures and help to build up this country without thinking only to fill up their own pockets, and the most important they are not a traitor to this nation.

The key of success for this country is on the unity of its peoples. If we continue to have such racist/fanatical/radical/extremist groups that inciting hatred to each other religions and races, we couldn't go to anywhere but lead to more separation feelings. As well some irresponsible media would take an advantage to heating the situation.

More reason to hate but more reason to love this country too.
