Thousands of Tausug sailing to Sabah to aid
beleaguered comrades – MNLF exec

ZAMBOANGA CITY,
Philippines—Thousands of Tausug from Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi have
sailed to Sabah to reinforce members of the so-called royal army of the
sultanate of Sulu who are fighting it out with Malaysian security forces, a
Moro National Liberation Front official said Tuesday.
“We can no longer prevent our
people. We are hurt and many of our people, even the non-combatants, are going
to Sabah to help the sultanate,” Habib Hashim Mudjahab, chair of the MNLF’s
Islamic Council Committee, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer by phone.
But Lt. Gen, Rey Ardo, chief of the
military’s Western Mindanao Command, said they have not monitored reports of
reinforcements trying to enter Sabah.
“But we cannot avoid that some
residents who have relatives in Malaysia would react to the situation,” he
said.
Acting Gov. Mujib Hataman of the
Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao also denied receiving reports about
reinforcements for the “Royal Army.”
Mudjahab said at least 10,000
Tausug from Basilan, Sulu, Tawi-Tawi and Zamboanga on Monday night
started to reinforce the followers of Sultan Jamalul Kiram III now holed up in
a coastal village in Sabah via the Philippines’ so-called “southern backdoor,”
a route regular traders are familiar with.
He said the reinforcements “sailed
in small numbers so they can easily penetrate Sabah unnoticed.”
‘It is about pride and
honor, and our people are ready to sacrifice.’

“The naval blockade is of no use;
our military should have known that. We did that before at the height of Marcos
regime. We can easily go to Sabah and blend with the people there,” he added.
He was referring to a naval blockade thrown up by the Philippine Navy and Coast
Guard to ensure armed sympathizers do not joined the beleaguered men in Sabah
as reinforcements.
Days ago, Mudjahab said, he advised
several MNLF commanders against going to Sabah to help a group of about 200 men
who landed in a coastal village in Lahad Datu on Feb. 9 to assert the
sultanate’s claim to Sabah. They engaged Malaysian authorities in a standoff
that has resulted in a series of skirmishes since last Friday. At least 27
people, including eight Malaysians have been reported killed in the violence.
The Malaysian Air Force is reported to have dropped bombs Tuesday on the
Filipinos’ suspected lair.
“I told them to hold on to their
ranks and avoid getting emotionally affected with the situation. But our
President Noynoy (President Benigno Aquino III) kept issuing statements
favoring the Malaysians, which made our people agitated. The President must
realize that for the Tausugs, being pushed to the wall, fighting for a cause,
is dying with victory,” he said.
He said with three old heirs of the
Sultanate, “who have no history of rebellion, living quietly on their own, now
leading the cause in Sabah, is something great for the Tausugs.”

“It is about pride and honor, and
our people are ready to sacrifice,” Mudjahab said.
Ajil Jaffar, 50, an oil palm
plantation worker in Kota Kinabalu and who was among those repatriated to the
country on Sunday, said he wanted to return to Sabah.
“I want to help them. It’s our honor
to be with the sultan so that this deportation and abuses will stop,” he said.
A retired educator in Tawi-Tawi, who
asked not to be identified by name, said the sultanate of Sulu represents an
extension of their rich heritage. “They are the first Filipinos. The sultanate
of Sulu was already there even before Philippines existed,” he said.
Amirah Lidasan of the
nongovernmental group Suara Bangsamoro said the status of the sultanate of Sulu
was unfinished business that “keeps on nagging us.”
“We have a bloody history of Moro
people getting killed while defending the homeland. It also speaks of the
Philippine government’s giving in to the interest of foreigners instead of its
citizens,” Lidasan said.
Meanwhile, Hataman said at least 70
Filipinos arrived in Sibutu, Tawi-Tawi yesterday (Tuesday) to escape being
caught in the crossfire in Sabah.
“They boarded a commercial vessel
and they arrived this morning,” Hataman said.
Hataman has been meeting for what he
called “security and social preparations” with the military and local
government officials since Tuesday morning
