The issue on Sabah was mentioned during President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.’s state visit to Malaysia, however, the matter was not extensively discussed.
KUALA LUMPUR —
“Nababanggit, lagi namang nababanggit ‘yun eh. Hindi maiiwasan, mayroon naman talaga tayong outstanding claim, hindi natin binabawi, so but… I mean it’s clear to all the parties involved na hindi naman puwedeng madedecide ‘yan ngayon,” Marcos said. The President said his state visit focused on other things, such as trade relations and Malaysia’s help in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao .
The President said the issue on Sabah is “something that neither the Philippines [nor] the Malaysia is withdrawing.”“There’s a tacit agreement at the very least that we talked about all of the things that are solvable, all the issues that we can actually do,” Marcos said.Located south of Mindanao, Sabah has long been the subject of a territorial dispute between the Philippines and Malaysia.
