LABUAN, July 9 — Instead of a new Malaysia Agreement, a supplementary deal could be considered to incorporate non-compliances and unfulfilled promises of the Malaysia Agreement 1963 , said Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili.
"A supplementary deal is possible, which culminates what the MKMA63 have been addressing in the last two years,” he said in a dialogue with the Labuan Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the Kadazandusun Chambers and Industries here today. He cited Article VIII of the MA63 , which reads:"The Governments of the Federation of Malaya, North Borneo and Sarawak will take such legislative, executive or other action as may be required to implement the assurances, undertakings, recommendations contained in Chapter 3 of, and Annexes A and B to, the Report of the Inter-Governmental Committee signed on 27th February 1963, in so far as they are not implemented by express provision of the Constitution of Malaysia.
Ongkili, however, added that he understood what Umno deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan and Sabah Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Jeffrey Kitingan had meant when calling for a new Malaysia Agreement.
