Beyond Propaganda: Sabah Needs Autonomy, Not Shallow Love

Take a look at this picture in ads. Anwar claims he "loves" Sabah, but we need more than propaganda or superficial declarations. Sabah requires autonomy, justice, dignity, rights, and decentralisation. Not outdated political loyalty — what I call coercive tribal mentality. It’s about addressing systemic failures, not blaming victims. Shafie Apdal’s remark that some are poor due to diversity in political beliefs highlights Malaysia’s reliance on scare tactics, guilt-tripping, propaganda, and power greed rather than genuine solutions. Malaysian politics also involves discrimination based on ethnicity and religion, along with propaganda promoting ethnic and religious supremacy.
