EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: THE FAÇADE OF UNITY For decades, the narrative of Malaysia has been carefully curated by the Federal centre in Putrajaya. It is a narrative of rapid modernization, "Asian Tigers," and towering skyscrapers that scrape the clouds. But as we stand in the shadow of the Petronas

I. Introduction: The Narrative of "The Cheap Sabahan" There is a video circulating on social media right now. You might have seen it. It features a man in a kopiah, speaking with the cadence of a preacher, lamenting the fall of Sabah. His thesis is simple, seductive, and
Introduction: When Seeking Help Becomes Trauma This report is anchored by a brutal reality: for far too many, particularly those already battling complex mental health challenges like neurodivergence or chronic illness, seeking life-saving help in a public Emergency Department (ED) in Malaysia can lead to further harm. The experience detailed
Dalam wacana moden Malaysia — khususnya dalam lanskap sosio-politik Sabah yang kompleks — berkembang naratif berbahaya. Naratif itu menganggap hak orang asal sudah lapuk — tinggalan zaman penjajahan yang tiada tempat dalam “masa depan progresif”. Ia juga menggunakan jurang ekonomi untuk menyalahkan mangsa pengabaian sistemik. Laporan ini berhujah sebaliknya. Membela hak rakyat asal
In the modern discourse of Malaysia, specifically within the complex socio-political landscape of Sabah, a dangerous narrative is taking root. It is the narrative that indigenous rights are obsolete—relics of a colonial past that have no place in a "progressive" future. It is a narrative that weaponises

Ia menampilkan seorang lelaki bertopi kopiah, bercakap dengan intonasi seperti penceramah, meratap tentang kejatuhan Sabah. Teorinya mudah, memikat, dan sangat berbahaya: "Sabah jatuh sebab orang Sabah mudah dibeli."

Recently, a few clips of public speeches by a prominent Sabah politician, Shafie Apdal of Warisan, have been circulating. These speeches, which seem to use ethnic groups as political footballs, have rightly stirred anger and concern, especially within the Kadazandusun Murut Rungus (KDMR) community. I want to talk about two
Lately, an old wound has been reopened in Malaysia, specifically concerning the state of Sabah. If you've been following the news, or even just social media, you’d know about the ongoing saga of the 40% special grant for Sabah. This isn’t some new request; it’s
The recent online reaction to a Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) account, which seemingly celebrated a Petronas victory in a legal dispute, has exposed a profound fault line in Malaysia's federation: the issue of Sarawak’s autonomy and resource ownership. Rather than focusing on corporate triumph, the
Recently, I noticed something frustrating and profoundly illuminating about my 4rest.brave domain. When attempting resolution using the centralized NextDNS resolver, other resolver authorities appeared to claim ownership, pushing my domain onto a website that falsely presented it as a marketplace item. This is digital squatting, pure and simple. However,

We already have quality college diplomas, accessible education, electricity, and transportation. The exact degree I want is available nearby in my state at different, comparable institutions,
Introduction: The Sustainable Tech Stack Over time, I've relentlessly experimented with self-hosting various services, particularly those in the Fediverse. Through sheer trial, error, and inevitable autistic burnout from complexity, I’ve arrived at a crucial realization: not everything that can be self-hosted should be. This reflection clarifies my

It is about letting go of the hollow validation that digital life encourages and waking up from the toxic trap of performative healing. My focus is now ruthlessly on what
