The dispute over Sabah between the Philippines and Malaysia is deeply rooted in the actions of the British North Borneo Company back in the 1800s. In this video, we will explore the agreements with the Sultans of Brunei and Sulu which gave rise to the company in the mid-1870s, and eventually fermented the modern-day dispute over Sabah.

of a series

of videos
02:07.9
that I made

that I'm making
02:09.3
about the
02:09.7
history
02:10.1
of the
02:10.4
dispute
02:10.8
over
02:11.1

And of course
02:16.6
stay tuned
02:17.1
for
02:17.3
Part 4
02:18.8
As a historian
02:19.8
I understand
02:20.5
that
02:20.8
topics
02:21.2
about
02:21.7
Saba
02:22.1
sovereignty
02:22.9
are
02:23.1
quite
02:23.4
complicated
02:24.3
and
02:24.5
quite
02:24.9
controversial
02:25.7
And as
02:26.1
a direct
02:26.5
descendant
02:27.1
of the
02:27.3
Sultans
02:27.7
of
02:27.8
Sulu
02:28.2
and
02:28.4
the
02:28.4
Sultans
02:28.8
of
02:28.9
Brunei
02:29.4
I also
02:30.0
understand
02:30.7
that
02:31.2
the
02:31.3
significance
02:32.2
the
02:32.4
roots
02:32.8
and
02:32.9
the
02:33.0
complexity
02:33.8
of
02:33.9
this
02:34.1
issue
02:34.6
goes
02:35.0
beyond
02:35.5
the
02:35.6
limits
02:36.1
of
02:36.2
a
02:36.3
YouTube
02:36.6
video
02:36.9
like
02:37.1
this
02:37.6
So this
02:38.0
series
02:38.2
of
02:38.3
videos
02:38.7
that I'm
02:39.0
making
02:39.5
is
02:39.7
meant
02:40.0
to
02:40.1
provide
02:40.5
historical
02:41.0
context
02:41.7
regarding
02:42.2
the
02:42.3
dispute
02:42.9
and
02:43.0
the
02:43.1
conflict
02:43.6
over
02:43.8
Saba
02:44.4
And I do
02:44.8
hope
02:45.1
that
02:45.4
this
02:45.6
series
02:45.9
about
02:46.2
Saba
02:46.7
will
02:46.8
help
02:47.0
many
02:47.4
of
02:47.5
you
02:47.7
to
02:47.8
dig
02:48.0
deeper
02:48.6
and
02:48.7
understand
02:49.2
this
02:49.3
issue
02:49.6
better
02:50.2
to
02:50.3
expand
02:50.9
your
02:51.0
perspectives
02:51.9
and
02:52.2
deepen
02:52.6
your
02:52.8
understanding
02:53.7
regarding
02:54.2
the
02:54.3
dispute
02:55.0
and
02:55.2
conflict
02:55.6
over
02:55.9
Saba
02:56.5
So if you
02:56.8
have an
02:57.1
open
02:57.4
mind
02:57.8
and
02:58.1

Salamat po
03:19.8
Terima
03:20.2
Kasi
03:21.3
So
03:21.7
what
03:22.0
exactly
03:22.8
led
03:23.2
to
03:23.4
the
03:23.5
foundations
03:24.4
of
03:24.5
the
03:24.6
British
03:25.0
North
03:25.4
Borneo
03:25.7
Company
03:26.3
And
03:26.5
what
03:26.8
exactly
03:27.5
why
03:27.8
exactly
03:28.4
did
03:28.5
they
03:28.7
wanna
03:29.1
take
03:29.3
over
03:29.5
Saba
03:30.1
What
03:30.4
was
03:30.7
in
03:30.8
Saba
03:31.9
So
03:32.1
the
03:32.2
region
03:32.8
which
03:33.1
eventually
03:33.6
came
03:34.0
to
03:34.1
be
03:34.2
controlled
03:34.6
by
03:34.8
the
03:35.2
North
03:35.4
Borneo
03:35.8
Company
03:36.3
is
03:36.6
known
03:36.8
today
03:37.2
as
03:37.4
Saba
03:38.0
It
03:38.2
lies
03:38.6
on
03:38.7
the
03:38.8
northern
03:39.1
end
03:39.4
of
03:39.5
the
03:39.6
island
03:39.9
of
03:40.0
Borneo
03:40.6
in
03:40.7
the
03:40.8
East
03:41.1
Indies
03:41.6
A.K.A.
03:42.3
the
03:42.4
islands
03:42.9
of
03:43.0
Southeast
03:43.4
Asia
03:43.8
Now
03:44.0
Saba
03:44.5
lay
03:44.7
between
03:45.1
a
03:45.2
number
03:45.7
of
03:45.8
different
03:46.4
but
03:46.7
interrelated
03:47.6
and
03:47.8
interconnected
03:48.6
sultanates
03:49.3
in
03:49.4
Southeast
03:49.9
Asia
03:50.4
and
03:50.6
had
03:50.8
actually
03:51.2
been
03:51.4
contested
03:52.0
between
03:52.4
them
03:52.8
for
03:52.9
centuries
03:53.8
So
03:54.0
the
03:54.1
most
03:54.4
significant
03:55.0
of
03:55.1
these
03:55.3
maritime
03:55.8
powers
03:56.3
were
03:56.5
the
03:56.6
Sultanates
03:57.1
of
03:57.2
Brunei
03:57.6
and
03:58.7
So
03:58.9
first
03:59.2
the
03:59.4
Sultanate
03:59.7
of
03:59.8
Brunei
04:00.2
had
04:00.4
controlled
04:00.8
most
04:01.1
of
04:01.2
the
04:01.3
island
04:01.6
of
04:01.6
Borneo
04:02.2
pre-colonially
04:03.0
and
04:03.2
they
04:03.2
had
04:03.4
done
04:03.6
so
04:04.0
since
04:04.4
the
04:04.6
14th
04:05.0
century
04:05.5
or
04:05.7
the
04:05.8
1300s
04:06.8
However,
04:07.6
by
04:07.7
the
04:07.8
1600s
04:08.8
the
04:08.9
control
04:09.5
and
04:09.6
the
04:09.7
sovereignty
04:10.3
of
04:10.4
the
04:10.5
Saba
04:10.8
region
04:11.2
that
04:11.4
we
04:11.4
know
04:11.6
today
04:12.2
was
04:12.4
later
04:12.7
acquired
04:13.2
by
04:13.4
the
04:13.5
Sultanate
04:14.0
of
04:14.0
Sulu
04:14.6
which
04:14.9
by
04:15.0
then
04:15.4
was
04:15.6
an
04:15.7
emerging
04:16.1
maritime
04:16.6
empire
04:17.2
that

04:30.4
of

this
04:30.7

04:31.2
So
04:31.4
if
04:31.4
you
04:31.5
haven't
04:31.8
seen
04:31.9
it
04:32.0
yet
04:32.3
make
04:32.5
sure
04:32.6
to
04:32.7
watch
04:33.0
it
04:33.1
after
04:33.3
this
04:33.5
video
04:33.9
Now
04:34.2
fast
04:34.6
forward
04:35.0
to
04:35.1
the
04:35.2
1800s
04:36.1
So
04:36.2
the
04:36.4
birth
04:36.6
of
04:36.7
the
04:36.8
British
04:37.2
North
04:50.6
Now
04:50.8
this
04:51.0
was
04:51.2
fueled
04:51.6
by
04:51.8
the
04:51.9
acquisition
04:52.6
of
04:52.8
Hong
04:53.0
Kong
04:53.4
in
04:53.6
Southeastern
04:54.2
China
04:54.8
in
04:55.0
1842
04:56.0
following
04:56.5
the
04:56.6
end
04:57.0
of
04:57.1
the
04:57.2
first
04:57.6
Opium
04:58.0
War
04:58.5
Secondly
04:59.2
the
04:59.4
1870s
05:00.2
and
05:00.3
1880s
05:01.1
saw
05:01.4
an
05:01.5
explosion
05:02.6
of
05:02.8
Imperial
05:03.2
Activity
05:03.8
Overseas
05:04.7
by
05:05.0
the
05:05.1
European
05:05.6
Powers
05:06.1
like
05:06.4
Britain
05:07.1
France
05:07.8
Italy
05:08.3
Germany
05:08.8
Belgium
05:09.3
Portugal
05:09.8
and
05:09.9
Spain
05:10.4
And
05:10.6
they
05:10.7
tried
05:11.2
to
05:11.2
swallow
05:11.8
up
05:12.0
every
05:12.5
bit
05:12.8
of
05:13.1
territory
05:13.9
in
05:14.0
Africa
05:15.0
and
05:15.1
Asia
05:15.6
You
05:15.8
know
05:15.9
basically
05:16.4
whatever
05:16.7
they
05:16.8
could
05:17.0
get
05:17.2
their
05:17.9
And
05:18.2
finally
05:18.8
the
05:19.0
island
05:19.3
of
05:19.4
Borneo
05:20.0
was
05:20.2
an
05:20.3
ideal
05:20.6
location
05:21.3
for
05:21.4
developing
05:22.3
rubber
05:22.7
plantations
05:23.7
And
05:23.8
in
05:24.0
the
05:24.0
second
05:24.4
half
05:24.8
of
05:24.9
the
05:25.0
19th
05:25.4
century
05:26.0
there
05:26.2
was
05:26.4
a
05:26.6
global
05:27.0
rubber
05:27.4
boom
05:27.8
following
05:28.4
the
05:28.5
discovery
05:29.2
of
05:29.3
the
05:29.4
vulcanization
05:30.2
process
05:30.7
in
05:30.9
the
05:31.0
1840s
05:31.9
by
05:32.1
Charles
05:32.5
Goodyear
05:33.1
And
05:33.3
thus
05:33.8
there
05:33.9
were
05:34.0
numerous
05:34.6
reasons
05:35.0
for
05:35.2
colonial
05:35.6
speculators
05:36.4
to
05:36.6
show
05:36.8
an
05:36.9
interest
05:37.6
and
05:37.8
actively
05:38.2
pursuing
05:38.9
taking
05:39.3
over
05:39.6
North
05:39.8
Borneo
05:40.4
in
05:40.5
the
05:40.6
1870s
05:41.8
And
05:42.0
the
05:42.1
British
05:42.6
were
05:42.9
not
05:43.2
the
05:43.3
only
05:43.7
ones
05:44.3
So
05:44.5
unknown
05:44.8
to
05:45.0
many
05:45.4
in
05:45.6
1865
05:46.6
an
05:46.7
agreement
05:47.2
was
05:47.4
signed
05:47.8
between
05:48.1
the
05:48.2
Sultan
05:48.5
of
05:48.6
Brunei
05:49.0
and
05:49.2
the
05:49.3
Consul
05:49.7
General
05:50.3
of
05:50.5
the
05:50.6
United
05:50.9
States
05:51.4
Charles
05:51.9
Lee
05:52.2
Moses
05:52.8
by
05:53.0
which
05:53.5
he
05:53.6
leased
05:54.1
a
05:54.2
part
05:54.5
of
05:54.6
the
05:54.7
territory
05:55.2
of
05:55.4
North
05:55.6
Borneo
05:56.2
for
05:56.3
a
05:56.4
period
05:56.8
of
05:56.9
10
05:57.2
years
05:57.7
Now
05:58.0
unfortunately
05:58.6
for
05:58.8
the
05:58.9
American
05:59.2
diplomat
05:59.9
he
06:00.0
was
06:00.2
unable
06:00.6
to
06:00.8
manage
06:01.4
the
06:01.5
tropical
06:01.9
environment
06:02.5
He
06:02.6
couldn't
06:02.9
survive
06:03.4
in
06:03.5
the
06:03.6
tropical
06:04.0
setting
06:04.5
So
06:04.7
he
06:04.9
sold
06:05.2
the
06:05.3
rights
06:05.7
to
06:05.8
the
06:05.9
lease
06:06.4
to
06:06.5
another
06:06.9
American
06:07.6
named
06:08.0
Joseph
06:08.4
Torrey
06:09.0
Sadly
06:09.9
Torrey
06:10.2
likewise
06:10.8
had
06:11.3
no
06:11.7
luck
06:12.2
with
06:12.3
the
06:12.4
project
06:12.9
to
06:13.0
profit
06:13.6
off
06:13.8
of
06:14.0
North
06:14.2
Borneo
06:14.8
So
06:15.0
he
06:15.1
then
06:15.4
decided
06:16.1
to
06:16.2
sell
06:16.5
the
06:16.6
rights
06:17.0
to
06:17.2
the
06:17.3
Austrian
06:17.8
diplomat
06:18.4
and
06:18.6
businessman
06:19.4
Gustavus
06:20.1
Baron
06:20.6
von
06:20.8
Overbeck
06:21.3
for
06:21.5
$15,000
06:23.0
Baron
06:23.4
von
06:23.6
Overbeck
06:24.3
however
06:24.8
did
06:25.0
not
06:25.3
have
06:25.5
enough
06:25.8
funds
06:26.2
to
06:26.4
take
06:26.6
over
06:26.8
the
06:26.9
lease
06:27.2
from
06:27.4
the
06:27.5
American
06:28.0
But
06:28.3
luckily
06:28.7
for
06:28.8
him
06:29.2
with
06:29.5
support
06:29.7
of
06:29.8
another
06:30.1
investor
06:30.9
the
06:31.0
British
06:31.6
Alfred
06:32.0
Dent
06:32.4
who
06:32.5
contributed
06:33.4
another
06:33.8
$10,000
06:34.8
to
06:34.9
renew
06:35.2
the
06:35.3
contract
06:35.9
Torrey
06:36.3
eventually
06:36.8
transferred
06:37.4
the
06:37.6
rights
06:38.0
to
06:38.1
Baron
06:38.5
von
06:38.6
Overbeck
06:39.2
and
06:39.4
his
06:39.6
British
06:40.0
partners
06:40.5
Alfred
06:41.0
and
06:41.2
Edward
06:41.6
Dent
06:42.1
And
06:42.2
so
06:42.4
it
06:42.5
was
06:42.7
in
06:42.8
this
06:43.0
environment
06:43.7
that
06:43.9
they
06:44.1
arrived
06:44.5
in
06:44.6
1877
06:45.7
and
06:45.9
they
06:46.0
wanted
06:46.4
to
06:46.5
gain
06:46.8
the
06:46.9
rights
06:47.2
to
06:47.3
the
06:47.4
Sabah
06:47.7
region
06:48.2
and
06:48.3
to
06:48.4
immediately
06:49.3
begin
06:49.7
exploiting
06:50.5
the
06:50.6
area
06:51.0
to
06:51.2
produce
06:51.6
rubber
06:52.0
and
06:52.2
other
06:52.5
commodities
06:53.2
like
06:53.5
coconuts
06:54.1
and
06:54.2
tobacco
06:54.9
But
06:55.1
in
06:55.2
order
06:55.4
to
06:55.6
do
06:55.8
so
06:56.2
they
06:56.4
would
06:56.5
have
06:56.7
to
06:56.8
reach
06:57.1
agreements
06:57.7
with
06:57.9
both
06:58.2
the
06:58.3
Sultan
06:58.6
of
06:58.7
Brunei
06:59.1
Abdul
06:59.4
Momin
06:59.9
and
07:00.1
the

Sulu
07:01.0
Jamalul

both

07:02.7
claimed
07:03.0
Sabah
07:03.6
by
07:03.8
ancient
07:04.3
inheritance
07:05.2
Now
07:05.4
this
07:05.6
endeavor
07:06.2
proved
07:06.5
possible
07:07.0
quite
07:07.3
quickly
07:07.7
By
07:07.8
late
07:08.1
1877
07:09.2
the
07:09.3
Dent
07:09.6
and
07:09.7
Overbeck
07:10.2
were
07:10.3
in

with

07:12.3
Momin
07:12.6
of

Brunei
07:13.2
And
07:13.4
thus
07:13.8
on
07:14.0
the
07:14.0
29th
07:14.6
of
07:14.7
December
07:15.3
1877
07:16.5
they

signed

an

whereby
07:18.2
the

an

of

15,000

which
07:24.8
by

then

the

And
07:27.9
then
07:28.1
just
07:28.3
four
07:28.5
weeks
07:28.7
later
07:29.4
through
07:29.5
the

07:30.4
of

07:31.2
Cowie
07:31.8
a

separate

07:33.0
was
07:33.2
made
07:33.6
with

the

22nd
07:35.9
of
07:36.0
January
07:36.8
1878
07:37.9
Now
07:38.2
Cowie
07:38.6
was
07:38.8
actually
07:39.4
Scottish
07:39.8
businessman
07:40.5
who
07:40.6
had
07:40.8
been

engaged
07:41.6
in

smuggling

07:44.1
for
07:44.2
many
07:44.6
years
07:45.2
But
07:45.4
he
07:45.5
also
07:45.8
happened
07:46.1
to

be

07:49.2
of

Sulu
07:49.9
Now
07:50.3
if
07:50.5
you
07:50.6
think
07:50.8
about
07:51.1
it
07:51.3
Sadly
07:52.0
Sultan

Jamalul

10:02.520 --> 10:02.960
10:03.0
there
10:03.2
was
10:03.3
a

problem
10:04.0
The

10:04.6
had
10:04.8
occupied
10:05.4
an

was

viewed

to

by

be
10:58.8
allowed

intervene
10:59.9
in

Now
11:00.5
on
11:00.6
the
11:00.7
other
11:00.9
end
11:01.4
the
11:01.4
Spanish
11:01.9
accepted
11:02.5
that
11:02.8
Alfred Dent
11:03.6

11:03.7
his

11:04.5
a

11:05.1
Sabah
11:05.7
And
11:05.9
this
11:06.0
was
11:06.2
based
11:06.5
on
11:06.6
the
11:06.8

11:07.4
that
11:07.6
they
11:07.7
had

11:13.4
thus
11:13.7
the

the

the

19th

11:26.8
And
11:27.0
then
11:27.2
the

11:27.8
was
11:28.1
officially
11:28.5
designated
11:29.3
as a
11:29.6
British
11:29.9
protectorate
11:30.6
in
11:30.8
1888
11:31.7
Though
11:32.0
in
11:32.2
reality
11:33.1
it
11:33.2
would
11:33.4
continue
11:33.8
to
11:33.8
be
11:34.0
governed
11:34.4
directly
11:35.2
by
11:35.4
the
11:35.5
British
11:37.1
And
11:37.3
as
11:37.5
the
11:37.6
boom
11:38.0
in
11:38.2
the
11:38.3
rubber
11:38.6

11:39.1
began
11:39.4
to
11:39.6
decline
11:40.2
the
11:40.3
company
11:41.0
very
11:41.4
fortunately
11:42.4
discovered
11:43.0
oil
11:43.4
off
11:43.7
the
11:43.8
coast
11:44.1
of

11:44.7
And
11:44.8
in
11:45.0
1912
11:45.7
the
11:45.8
British
11:46.2
Borneo
11:46.8
Petroleum
11:47.3
Syndicate
11:47.9
was
11:48.1
established
11:48.8
to
11:49.0
oversee
11:49.6
oil
11:50.0
and

11:50.5
licenses
11:51.1
in
11:51.2
the

11:51.9
Now
11:52.2
on
11:52.3
top
11:52.6
of
11:52.7
oil
11:53.1
timber
11:53.6
also
11:53.9
became
11:54.3
a
11:54.4
major
11:54.8
export
11:55.2
commodity
11:55.9
for
11:56.1
Saba
11:56.6
And
11:56.8
the
11:57.0
money
11:57.4
kept
11:57.7
coming
11:58.0
in
11:58.5
That
11:58.8
is
11:59.2
until
11:59.8
1942
12:00.8
when
12:01.0
the
12:01.1
Second
12:01.5
World
12:01.7
War
12:02.2
spilled
12:02.7
into
12:06.1
00:00.0
12:36.560 --> 12:36.760
12:36.8
the
12:36.9
colony
12:37.6
passed
12:37.8
directly
12:38.6
into
12:38.8
the
12:38.9
hands
12:39.4
of
12:39.5
the
12:39.6
British
12:39.9
Government
12:40.5
And
12:40.6
now
12:40.8
fast
12:41.1
forward
12:41.6
to
12:41.8
1963
12:42.9
The
12:43.0
sovereignty
12:43.6
over
12:43.8
Saba
12:44.3
despite
12:44.7
the
12:44.8
opposition
12:45.6
from
12:45.8
the
12:45.9
Republic
12:46.3
of
12:46.4
the
12:46.5
Philippines
12:46.9
and
12:47.0
Indonesia
12:47.8
was
12:48.0
eventually
12:48.5
passed
12:48.9
into
12:49.1
the
12:49.2
hands
12:49.6
of
12:49.7
the
12:49.8
newly
12:50.0
formed
12:50.4
Federation
12:50.9
of
12:51.0
Malaysia
12:51.7
And
12:52.0
thus
12:52.3
Saba
12:53.0
finally
12:53.4
acquired
12:54.0
official
12:54.5
independence
12:55.3
from
12:55.4
the
12:55.5
British
12:55.8
Empire
12:56.5
after
12:56.9
nearly
12:57.3
a
12:57.4
century
12:58.0
But
12:58.3
Saba's
12:58.7
inclusion
12:59.3
into
12:59.6
Malaysia
13:00.3
would
13:00.6
result
13:01.1
in
13:01.3
decades
13:01.8
of
13:02.0
conflict
13:02.6
in
13:02.7
Southeast
13:03.2
Asia
13:03.8
A
13:04.1
dispute
13:04.7
that
13:04.9
continues
13:05.6
to
13:05.7
this
13:05.9
very
13:06.2
day
13:07.4
Okay
13:08.4
So
13:08.5
the
13:08.6
British
13:08.9
Company
13:09.4
made
13:09.6
all
13:09.9
of
13:10.0
these
13:10.2
money
13:10.9
from
13:11.2
taking
13:11.4
over
13:11.6
Saba
13:12.2
up
13:12.5
until
13:12.8
World
13:13.1
War
13:13.2
2
13:13.6
They
13:13.7
made
13:13.9
a
13:14.0
lot
13:14.3
of
13:14.4
money
13:14.7
They
13:14.8
made
13:14.9
hella
13:15.2
profits
13:15.6
from
13:15.8
it
13:16.8
And
13:17.0
technically
13:18.4
at least
13:18.8
on
13:19.0
paper
13:19.6
on
13:19.8
documents
13:20.4
on
13:20.5
documentations
13:21.7
They
13:21.9
had
13:22.2
the
13:22.3
legal
13:22.6
rights
13:22.9
to
13:23.0
do
13:23.1
so
13:23.4
They
13:23.5
had
13:23.6
the
13:23.8
license
13:24.2
and
13:24.3
the
13:24.4
permission
13:25.2
from
13:25.4
both
13:25.6
the
13:25.6
Sultans
13:26.0
of
13:27.0
a
13:27.0
Sulu
13:27.6
So
13:28.3
what
13:28.6
exactly
13:29.2
is
13:29.4
the
13:29.5
problem?
13:30.5
And
13:30.8
why
13:31.3
are
13:31.4
people
13:32.1
still
13:32.4
fighting
13:32.8
over
13:33.1
it
13:33.2
today?
13:34.6
As
13:35.0
mentioned
13:35.5
earlier
13:36.1
and in
13:36.4
my
13:36.4
previous
13:36.8
videos
13:37.4
there
13:37.5
were
13:37.7
actually
13:38.1
several
13:38.4
agreements
13:39.0
that
13:39.1
pertain
13:39.6
to
13:39.7
the
13:39.8
territory
13:40.4
we
13:40.6
now
13:40.7
call
13:40.9
Saba
13:41.5
in
13:41.6
the
13:41.7
late
13:42.0
1870s
13:43.0
The
13:43.1
British
13:43.5
North
13:43.6
Borneo
13:44.0
Company
13:44.6
wanted
13:45.0
to
13:45.0
have
13:45.2
access
13:45.9
to
13:46.0
what
13:46.2
was
13:46.4
then
13:46.7
otherwise
13:47.4
seen
13:47.8
as
13:48.3
undeveloped
13:48.9
region
13:49.4
surrounded
13:50.3
by
13:50.5
waters
13:51.2
teeming
13:51.7
with
13:52.1
so
13:52.4
called
13:52.7
pirates
13:53.3
For
13:56.2
rubber
13:56.8
available
13:57.6
in
13:57.7
these
13:58.0
lands
13:58.7
And
13:58.9
again
13:59.3
in
13:59.5
1878
14:00.5
when
14:00.8
the
14:00.9
British
14:01.2
Company
14:01.7
had
14:01.9
come
14:02.1
into
14:02.3
possession
14:03.0
of
14:03.2
the
14:03.2
Saba
14:03.6
region
14:04.2
It
14:04.4
was
14:04.7
not
14:05.0
entirely
14:05.6
clear
14:05.9
to
14:06.0
the
14:06.2
British
14:06.8
who
14:06.9
this
14:07.2
part
14:07.6
of
14:07.7
Borneo
14:08.3
even
14:08.6
belonged
14:09.0
to
14:09.4
in
14:09.6
order
14:10.0
to
14:10.1
officially
14:10.6
grant
14:11.0
it
14:11.1
away
14:11.9
And
14:12.2
thus
14:12.6
the
14:12.7
two
14:12.9
separate
14:13.3
agreements
14:13.9
with
14:14.1
the
14:14.2
two
14:14.4
Sultanates
14:15.2
And
14:15.3
again
14:15.7
the
14:15.8
first
14:16.1
one
14:16.4
was
14:16.7
between
14:17.1
the
14:17.2
British
14:17.5
Company
14:18.2
and
14:18.3
the
14:18.4
Sultan
14:19.0
of
14:19.2
Brunei
14:19.7
Sultan
14:20.2
Abdul
14:20.5
Mumin
14:27.1
However,
14:27.8
when
14:28.0
the
14:28.2
British
14:28.4
decided
14:29.0
to
14:29.3
expand
14:29.8
their
