Politics in Malaysia often centres around the Peninsular, while Sabah & Sarawak are often relegated to the peripheries of mainstream discourse and our imagination. Not to mention, revenue from their natural resources has been funnelled to Putrajaya for decades.  But this should not be the case. The Malaysia Agreement 1963 is a profound document detailing the rights of Sabah & Sarawak in terms of autonomy, cultural preservation and political representation.

My Country and I: The Malaysia Agreement 1963 is a new book penned by Datin Fazar Arif and Mazlianie ML. They join us in this episode to discuss the importance of MA63 and their upcoming children’s book.
