Chapter 572 Republic of Borneo
This was the last time Wang Yuanchao set foot on East Malaysian territory before East Malaysia’s independence.

Twenty thousand mercenaries were inspected by Wang Yuanchao in batches and locations. Many of them were in the form of factory militia.

The sensitive ones thought it was just a mission. The insensitive ones thought it was just someone from above coming to inspect.

I've become accustomed to it.

When the South Vietnamese regime collapsed, they moved out their munitions as their assets, and also imported a large amount of weapons and ammunition from the United States like ants moving house.

黑水基地累计有M-41“华克猛犬”轻型坦克30辆，M-113装甲运兵车300辆；M-3履带式装甲车100辆。

Other types of automatic rifles, carbines, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, grenade launchers, grenades, etc., the ammunition supplies are enough to fight ten Falklands Wars.

In the name of transportation, companies in East Malaysia either imported or smuggled a large number of trucks, vans and motorcycles. With just a command, these vehicles could be quickly gathered to ensure the rapid transfer of the mercenaries.

As for cross-regional transfers, there are still 141 Lockheed C8s, 130 C2 Hercules and 7 C10 Reindeer transport aircraft, which can quickly deploy thousands of armed forces to various locations in East Malaysia.

Whether in Sarawak or Sabah, especially in some key locations or near important locations, there are a large number of Wang Yuanchao's properties. Apart from other things, the properties in various places also have large roads outside, or supporting large yards and playgrounds, which are all necessary for the take-off and landing and parking of aircraft.

As long as these location data are given to the pilots, they can deliver the team as soon as possible.

Although they had not rehearsed, they had all been assigned to perform missions in these places, but most of the time they were flown there by helicopter.

All of this was carried out bit by bit by Sam, Blackwater's partner and vice president.

Especially this year, Wang Yuanchao has come to Sarawak more frequently than before.

Only when this iron fist is strong and in place can the people of East Malaysia take to the streets in a reasonable and legal manner, calling for severe punishment of national parasites and then calling for independence.

These 20,000 mercenaries do not include the blacks and whites coming from the United States.

There were only about a thousand Americans, mostly pilots and technicians, who were considered high-level soldiers and very expensive.

Among these 20,000 mercenaries, about 2,000 were from the remnants of the South Vietnamese army; about 1,000 were trained South Vietnamese Chinese; there were about 500 local Sarawakians, who mainly acted as guides; the remaining 16,000 to 17,000 were all from the mainland, and most of them had received military training, and many of them retired directly from the army and returned home to farm.

But now they are all East Malaysians, and they have all signed labor contracts with Blackwater.

Heishui has a series of rules and regulations and welfare benefits that are much better than those in the mainland.

Chinese people are still relatively simple these days. Once they sign a contract, they will listen to the company and do their job well.

If you do a good job, you will be promoted and get a raise. If there is any injury or death, the company will also provide subsidies and pensions, which will definitely be sent to your home.

If the army is motivated and well-paid, they will be invincible.

After inspecting the mercenaries in various places, Wang Yuanchao and the Blackwater headquarters finalized the strategic locations and important places, although he didn't know how many times he had gone through them over the years. Finally, he paid attention to the signal for the start of the operation again, and then left reluctantly.

Then he flew to the United States.

January 1983, 1, the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The newspapers in East Malaysia published an explosive news about the Malay state-owned bank, U-Ming Bank. The main point was that the top and bottom were in collusion, and all kinds of dirty tricks defrauded the country of 5 billion Malaysian ringgit!

The report also explained the source of funds for U-Ming Bank, which was mainly the profits of Malaysian oil companies. The oil companies were naturally the oil in the northern waters of East Malaysia.

Although Wang Yuanchao has invested a lot in recent years, most of these companies do not pay taxes to Malaysia, which is a tax evasion.

The little tax paid was mainly used to build schools and hospitals, and to pay salaries and benefits to civil servants, and no large-scale infrastructure construction was carried out.

Wang Yuanchao's businesses had everything from food and drink to food and shelter. The Chinese in particular rarely spent money outside and saved it to send back home.

So when someone started the fire, the people of East Malaysia suddenly became angry!

In the past, people would just get angry and then that was it.

But now, my goodness, the common people just followed and shouted a few times, and then a lot of people came out from somewhere, holding up banners and posters, and rumors spread quickly. When they go to march, the government will compensate them, giving 100 Malaysian dollars per person, because the government has embezzled our East Malaysian money!
Good guy!
At first, the common people were forced to join in, but later they even brought their families and joined in voluntarily, and soon they surrounded the state legislatures and governments of Sarawak and Sabah.

Shouting:

"Give me back my money! Give me back my money!"

The streets were packed with people and the cheers were deafening.

The few policemen who came over sporadically, seeing so many people, were so obedient that they refused to move forward. The salary was not worth risking their lives for.

Over the years, whether in Sarawak or Sabah, the MPs have been controlled by Blackwater and have no other pursuits except money and their lives.

When I saw this scene, my legs went weak.

But there are many journalists who are brave enough to take photos, and these beautiful articles will be circulated around the world.

People in West Malaysia naturally have to call there to report the situation.

The West Malaysian authorities were also confused and it took them a long time to react.

The first thing to do, of course, is to mobilize the local garrison to protect the parliament and the government.

The garrison was dispatched, but it was also infiltrated by Blackwater!
An officer immediately stated that he was also an East Malaysian and how could he bear to see the hard-earned money of his fellow countrymen being wasted by the government?
I immediately joined the march. It was chaos, total chaos.

Amid the chaos, Sam took a helicopter and came before Sarawak Chief Minister Taib Mahmud.

Historically, this is a guy known for corruption and nepotism.

In 81, Taib Mahmud took over the post of Chief Minister from his uncle, Raman Yaakob, and sat in the position for 33 years until February 2014, 2, when he received the letter of appointment as the seventh Head of State of Sarawak at the National Palace.

Now, under the "protection" of Blackwater, Taib Mahmud can only make money quietly. Even when he is enjoying himself, there are people standing guard outside.

Sam took out a contract and threw it in front of Taib Mahmud:

"Sign it!"

Muhammad Taib picked up the contract with trembling hands and was dumbfounded.

This is an independent initiative!
"I can't betray my country!"

Sam took out a shiny machete, slammed it on the table, and said coldly:

"Either sign it or have your head chopped off by angry mobs."

Taib Mahmud picked up the pen, his hands shaking violently.

If you don’t sign, you will die immediately. If you sign, you may die later, or spend your whole life in prison. Who knows?

Sam saw him sign and smiled:
"That's right. We have worked together for so many years, how can I harm you? Don't worry, you are not the only one who has signed. Harris from Sabah has also signed!"

Harris, Chief Minister of Sabah.

Of course, it has not been signed yet, but it has been controlled by Blackwater and is waiting to respond to Sarawak’s call!
The people who were marching and demonstrating on the streets did not disperse even at night because someone actually brought them food and drinks!

He also kindly encouraged them to stick with it, saying that 100 Malaysian ringgits is well worth it!

Indeed, money is not so easy to get, especially if there are several people in a family. How can you earn hundreds of dollars at once? How can there be such a good thing in the world?

Didn’t you see the army coming? Are you all in the same group with them?
Anyway, everyone just surrounded the parliament and the government, eating, sleeping and having fun.

The Malay authorities were still waiting for news and studying countermeasures, but they were unaware that the garrison had already been instigated.

The Sarawak State Assembly was almost escorted into the parliament building one by one, and passed the Chief Minister's initiative with unanimous votes at the fastest speed.

Those who did not raise their hands were dragged out and beaten to death by the citizens who were blocking the door. Yes, they were beaten to death with clubs. As they were beaten, they shouted:

"running dog!"

"Give me my money back!"

……

Between surrender and voting, they chose to vote.

Sarawak sent a secret message of independence, which immediately received a response and support from Sabah.

It's exactly the same over there.

Neither state legislature dissolved itself, but instead passed the following resolutions unanimously in their respective state capitols:
The two states announced their withdrawal from the Federation of Malaysia and the establishment of an independent Borneo Republic, the Republic of Borneo.

Parliament elected Taib Mahmud as the interim president of the Borneo Republic, waiting for the right time to hold a general election.

The interim president formed a cabinet overnight, appointed a prime minister and interim ministers, and immediately signed a national security agreement with Blackwater, requesting Blackwater's protection and using national tax revenue as collateral.

But these "senior officials" cannot leave the Parliament building for the time being, and their families are all well "protected".

The procedure is legal!

Sam immediately sent an urgent telegram to Wenders:

"Politicians in Sarawak and Sabah took advantage of the opportunity of ordinary people taking to the streets to pursue democracy and announced their separation from the Federation of Malaya. They knew they were weak and offered Blackwater a national security agreement with a high commission, which Blackwater could not refuse..."

When Wenders received the news, he rushed to his boss Wang Yuanchao without even having time to eat lunch.

Act out the whole thing!
Wang Yuanchao took the telegram and immediately found his former father-in-law, President Reagan, and said in a serious tone:

"Mr. President, Blackwater has been dragged into a regional political incident!"

Reagan was enjoying lunch. Only family members or urgent matters would come to him at this time. He is old and if he doesn't eat and sleep well, how can he be a good president?

Reagan listened to Wang Yuanchao's description while eating until he finished his lunch.

He wiped his mouth, rinsed it with soda water, stared at Wang Yuanchao thoughtfully, and said:
"This was premeditated, wasn't it?"
