Sultan of sulu seized USD2 billion worth of Petronas assets in Luxemburg

[syed putra]

I wonder if you are not party to the agreement, if this can be enforced.
The original agreement was between a british trading company which has ceased to exist, and the sultanate of Sulu, which has also ceased to exist under philippine republic.

Petronas said the subsidiaries had previously divested its entire assets and the proceeds from the exercise had been duly repatriated.
PETALING JAYA: Petronas tonight described the seizure of its two subsidiaries in Azerbaijan as “baseless”.
“Petronas is working vigorously to defend its legal position on this matter,” the national oil company said in a brief statement.
It also confirmed that the two subsidiaries, Petronas Azerbaijan (Shah Deniz) and Petronas South Caucasus, had been served with a ‘Saisie-arret’ on July 11.


Petronas also clarified that these subsidiaries had previously divested its entire assets in the republic and “the proceeds from the exercise have been duly repatriated”.




Earlier today, it was reported that the subsidiaries were seized by bailiffs after a French arbitration court ruled in March that Malaysia had to pay the descendants of the Sultan of Sulu at least RM62.59 billion.
The Financial Times reported that the seizure was part of legal efforts launched in 2017 by the heirs to receive compensation for land in Sabah that they said their ancestor leased to a British trading company in 1878.
The Attorney-General’s Chambers has since said it would “look into” the reported seizure, adding that it had just been informed of the matter.

Or rather, sulu sultanate is a unrecognised entity within the Philippine republic.

Just invent a Sultana and can size asset base on your own historical account? Like that if Johor of Sultan do likewise. Size Singapore by the balls. Then all man must turn Muslim, die for his majesty.

What else are the sulu sultanate claiming besides money? The disputed territory? The position as royalty?

The philipines itself does not recognise " sulu sultanate". They only have sulu autonomous region where leaders are elected .
Sultanate of sulu claim they were never conquered, but eventually assimilated into the philippines by colonizers. Same claim made by acehnese.

A couple of years ago i also posted an scmp article on the decendents of sultan of Singapore. Same rules apply. No claim to any sovereign territorial rights or powers but only a title if they want to use it. But they are Grab delivery drivers now so better don't malu

No more. Only the Sultan of Singapore demand legal recourse. U want to restore the monarchy and depose Halimah the pretender?

Matland Govt fucked big time. I don't think the Sulu Sultan really that savvy. Obviously a team of international lawyers providing him legal advice and having a cut of these deals.

Timmy Thomas has got to be the worst AG in Matland's history. Forget about the past corrupted AGs under UMNO rule back then. Many Malaysian had high hopes when Thomas was appointed AG under Pakatan but he under delivered big time. The Sulu Sultan must be laughing to the bank now. With this jackpot money he can well afford to buy a small ulu island in the Philippines and install himself the new ruler of that island.
