Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Adenan Satem today called on opposition parties, NGOs and the people of Sarawak to back the state government to restore the state’s powers and rights as stated in the Malaysia Agreement 1963.

Under the Malaysia Agreement 1963, Malaya, Sarawak, North Borneo (now Sabah) and Singapore agreed to the formation of the Federation of Malaysia.

Adenan said the agreement cannot be amended even by the constitution because it  is an international treaty and any attempt therefore to amend the Malaysia Agreement 1963 would be unconstitutional.

He said this when speaking  at the Sarawak Day celebration at the Kuching Waterfront.

Also present was his wife Puan Sri Jamilah Anu.
