Fines, penalties from fed offences in Sabah | Daily Express Online - Sabah's Leading News PortalThere has been much debate recently about the lack of funds to pay for the rebuilding of bridges and roads destroyed by floods in Sabah and the clamour for more such funds from Putrajaya. This is surprising and a far cry from the colonial days where the colony of North Borneo experienced annual budget surplus even after paying for the colony’s own Police force, education, health and other colonial government services. This annual budget surplus can be seen from the Colony of North Borneo Report for 1960, 1961 & 1962 (before forming Malaysia in 1963) which shows surplus of income over expenditure. How was this colonial surplus of revenue negotiated for Sabah in the formation of Malaysia? The answer is that this colonial budget surplus was the bargaining chip for the 40pc excess revenue to be paid as grants by the Federal Government to Sabah under Tenth Schedule Part IV (2)(1) and Article 112C (1) (b) Federal Constitution (“FC”) for “…all proceeds from the taxes, fees and dues specified in Part V of that Schedule, so far as collected, levied or raised within the State…”. This 40pc grant under article 112C (1)(b) FC is subject to review under article 112D (4) FC. There were similar provisions for review in respect of revenue collected from Singapore under article 48 (1) (f) FC which had since been abolished after Singapore left in 1965. Where does all this revenue collected from Sabah go to the Federal Government? The answer is in Article 97(1) FC which states that “…all revenues and monies howsoever raised or received by the Federation shall, subject to the provisions of this Constitution and of Federal law, be paid into and form one fund to be known as the Federal Consolidated Fund…”. There are similar provisions in Article 97(2) FC for the states of Malaysia which reads that “…all revenues and moneys howsoever raised or received by a State shall, subject to Clause (3) be paid into and form one fund to be known as the Consolidated Fund of the State…”. However, wha

Unko is officially launched | Daily Express Online - Sabah's Leading News PortalAUGUST 6 1960: The United National Kadazan Organisation (Unko) was formally launched at the Kadazan National Congress attended by delegates from 25 areas at the Jesselton Community Centre. There was some debate on the motion pertaining to the formation of Unko but the real debate was on the motion by the Menggatal delegate that “the name Kadazan is the true and correct name of the people living in Sabah and formerly known as Dusuns.” Opening the debate, Amadeus Leong from Papar said he had never known any Kadazans to refer themselves as Dusuns. He said as a child when others referred to him as Dusun, it was in the sense that he was “uncivilised and backward.” He questioned refering to themselves through a “Malay” term, instead of using one of their own, which is Kadazan. He was followed by Ganie Gilong of Ranau who said many of his people still thought of themselves as Dusuns, but said he would be happy to abide with the decision of the conference as to which name to accept. Another delegate OKK Sundang said instead of having a controversy on what name to adopt, it would be better to use an alternative. He then suggested “Pasok Momogun” as it signified “people of the country.” The leader of the Kiulu delegation related a long story about the word Kadazan or Kedayan and that it was believed that Kedayan meant people who are bodyguards of the Sultan or even slaves. In his summing up, Unko President Donald Stephens said the differences in opinion over the name of the people was because of the Kadazan people’s ill-fortune in the past hundreds of years when they were driven all over the country and became the subject of exploitation. “The time has come when we shall decide what name we are to have not others,” he said. “When the votes were taken, only six delegates voted against the new term “Kadazan”. “From now we shall be known as Kadazan,” Stephens said to long and prolonged applause, as delegates threw papers into the air in delight. The Unko Constitution
