The Forgotten War: The Sulu Sultanate and the North Borneo Dispute

9 min25 april 2026

This episode dives into the complex and often overlooked history of the Sulu Sultanate's claim to North Borneo, a dispute that continues to simmer into the 21st century. Lucas and Luna explore the origins of the sultanate in the Sulu Archipelago, the 1878 lease agreement with the British North Borneo Company, the subsequent breakdown of relations, and the violent standoff in 2013 when armed Sulu Filipinos landed in Sabah. They discuss the figure of Sultan Jamalul Kiram II, the ambiguous terms of the lease, and the legal and geopolitical ramifications that followed. The conversation sheds light on a pivotal chapter in Malaysia's formation that still echoes today.
