There is a little known interesting history of Sarawak in Borneo. In the late 19th century, there was a British adventurer called James Brooke who helped the Brunei Sultan fight off pirates. As gratitude for the effort, the Brunei Sultan gifted the land that is today Sarawak to James Brooke, who became the first "White Rajah" (White King) of Sarawak. So yeah, this British dude sailed halfway around the world on an adventure, fought some pirates, and then became king of the land. The dynasty lasted 3 generations, ending with the Japanese occupation in World War 2. After the war, the Brooke family handed Sarawak over to the British Crown. Sarawak later joined the Malaysian Federation in 1963.
@@yazyaz2969 Yes, he is British. Sarawak was also liberated by Commonwealth forces after WW2, so it was also practical to hand over the administration to the British, since the Commonwealth forces were already occupying the place post-WW2.

We didn't actually called it "orangutang" Because "utang" is can pronounced as "hutang" which is means debt in both language, bahasa Malay and Bahasa Indonesia And if "ORANGUTAN's' name came from Malaysia, i don't think malaysian will named it "orang-utan"

Additional name trivia of Borneo/Kalimantan Cities: 1. Kuching, malaysian city in Borneo is similar to the word "Kucing" which means "Cat" 2. Balikpapan, Indonesian city in Kalimantan can be translated Balik = "Turned" (as in turned upside-down or reversed); Papan = "Board"; Balik Papan = "Turned Board" 3. Palangka Raya, a former new capital candidate of Indonesia means Palangka = Sacred, Raya = Great, Palangka Raya = "Great Sacred Site" 4. Pontianak, Indonesian city in west kalimantan, is said to be similar to Indonesian ghost of Kuntilanak or Malaysian ghost of Pontianak, which means Woman died in childbirth (Puan Mati Beranak, Pon ti anak). Anak in itself also means Child, so whatever the ponti means, it is a city containing the word child.
Alasdair Chi probably of local dialect, which may have different meaning altogether. In basic Indonesian it is similar with Tempurung = Turtle Shell. However I doubt this is the true meaning of the name.
Wales, Scotland and England are on the same island. We call it the UK or Britain or that of whichever nation we're in at the time. It's surrounded by water. It's very cold and wet. We call it normal.
Brunei has 7 ethnic groups : Tutong tribe, Dusun tribe ,Brunei Melayu tribe , kedayan tribe, Murut tribe , Belait tribe and I forgot the other one. And some of the tribes have their own language and from the Tutong and Dusun mix of 2 :)
really...? no wonder some Indonesian doesn't believe or doesn't know that Malaysia also have Dayak people.. I often see some comments in social media that Indonesian people accuse us of stealing Dayak culture.. but I believe those Indonesian must not be from Kalimantan.. because there is no way Kalimantan people didn't know about Dayak people in Sarawak.. btw, I'm Dayak from Sarawak..

But for me, it doesn't seem add up tho. Cuz the phrase "serah kepada awak" is in official Malay. And Sarawakians during that period hasn't accepted Malay as their official language just yet. I can confirm this myself cuz I'm a native malay from Sarawak. Instead, my ancestors used "bahasa melayu sarawak" which is basically, the language spoken by the Bornean Malays (who have little to no relation to the Peninsular Malays). I may not be completely correct though so take this opinion with a grain of salt.
Actually each major indonesian islands have their different name.. Borneo = Kalimantan Celebes = Sulawesi Java = Jawa New Guinea = Irian Jaya Andalas = Sumatra
i heard this story from an old folks. the word "melayu" came from a chinese traders where they saw lots of monkeys in chilling in the area.

Borneo is the western mispronunciation of Brunei since Brunei was the main political entity on the island for several centuries. Whilst the westerners began referring the entire island increasingly as Borneo, Brunei was in fact referred to as Borneo Proper, that is apparent when the sultanate's power began to wane in the following centuries. There were several predecessor states to Brunei such as Po-li and Po-ni. 14th century onwards, the name Brunei is used, when Brunei was recorded as one of the vassals of the Majapahit Empire as Burune or Baruneng. Whilst it is possible that Brunei might originate from Sanskrit words Varuna, it is also possible that Brunei (which is itself a western spelling) came from Baru-Nah! or "That's it!" in Brunei Malay, signifying the establishment of new settlement/ kingdom.
In the case of Sarawak, the name Sarawak had existed since, at least from the 14th century thus the name Sarawak that originated from Saya-serah-awak is less likely. The early state of Sarawak originally only encompassed the area around Kuching, and according to Brunei records, there existed several other native states besides Sarawak (not present day Sarawak), such as Kalakah, Saribas, Semarahan & Mukah and a rival settlement in the east Brunei Bay called Bacanja. Present day Sarawak is huge due to the successful expansionist activities of the White Rajahs of Sarawak.
According to negarakerragama (writen1365l)..mention Baruneng or Barune (historian indentify it as Brunei).. Which is strong probably came from Varuna with local tongue become Barune..then later western tounge become borneo. Some part serawak also mentioned in negarakerragama.. Sibu (or cebu) which is historian indentify it as place surround by sibu river. Cmiiw.
Indonesian locally called the island as KALIMANTAN. According to historian from my university (Universitas Indonesia in Depok, Java), Kalimantan is derived from "parimata" which then changed to "karimata". "Parimata" cognates with Indonesian word "permata", meaning "gem". She explained in her book, "The Sultanate of Banjarmasin" that people began to call the island as "parimata" when they discovered huge amount of gem in and around Banjarmasin, which is situated in southeastern end of the island. Whereas Borneo, if I wasn't mistaken, got the name from Portuguese broken pronounciation of the Brunei Empire/Sultanate which is situated in the northern coast of present-day Borneo Island. Please, remember, Brunei once was larger than Burnei that what we know today. Then the name is gained international foothold and became the solely international name (compared to Indonesia's Kalimantan). Note: Indonesian and Malaysian are both a different standardized register of Malay language. However, Indonesian tends to exclusive say their language is not Malay, because for some of us, Malay is just Malaysian stuff, which is a shame. No less than 2-3% of Indonesians are Malay which distributed mainly in West Kalimantan, Riau, Riau Islands, and East Coast of Sumatra. So, (some) Indonesian is not less Malay than Malaysia.

I saw a video where a Sabahan shows his contempt about being mistaken for an Indonesian. which IMO shows how ridiculous it is to let the division instilled by europeans get into our minds even today in 2020.
fact is, Malay in Sumatra are closer to West Malaysians, and Sabahans are closer to general Indonesian accents.
That's what I mean with Indonesians and Malaysians were originally one, and yet we let the borders and divisions instilled by europeans who have left decades ago so deeply entrenched in our head.

Bruneian secondary students nowadays are taught the "Baru nah" folk tale in early Secondary school. Although the literal translation of Baru nah is something long the lines of "New, here" it does not make much sense when translated to English. So to make it easier to understand, the phrases with the closest meanings in English are used as translations in textbooks and documents related to the folk tale.

Sabah should be A Country not a state from Malaysia.... No hate for Malaysia but i believe that Sabah have many potential to become a Country because sabah has many rich of resources such as wood, oil, gas, timber and palm oil that can be use to developed a successful and rich country.Furthermore, look at Brunei&Singapore right now they don't join malaysia but still become a very stable and rich country eventhough they are small country just imagine how sabah could become if Sabah stand as an independent Country...

Additional name trivia of Borneo/Kalimantan Cities:
1. Kuching, malaysian city in Borneo is similar to the word "Kucing" which means "Cat"
2. Balikpapan, Indonesian city in Kalimantan can be translated Balik = "Turned" (as in turned upside-down or reversed); Papan = "Board"; Balik Papan = "Turned Board"
3. Palangka Raya, a former new capital candidate of Indonesia means Palangka = Sacred, Raya = Great, Palangka Raya = "Great Sacred Site"
4. Pontianak, Indonesian city in west kalimantan, is said to be similar to Indonesian ghost of Kuntilanak or Malaysian ghost of Pontianak, which means Woman died in childbirth (Puan Mati Beranak, Pon ti anak). Anak in itself also means Child, so whatever the ponti means, it is a city containing the word child.

But for me, it doesn't seem add up tho. Cuz the phrase "serah kepada awak" is in official Malay. And Sarawakians during that period hasn't accepted Malay as their official language just yet. I can confirm this myself cuz I'm a native malay from Sarawak.
Instead, my ancestors used "bahasa melayu sarawak" which is basically, the language spoken by the Bornean Malays (who have little to no relation to the Peninsular Malays). I may not be completely correct though so take this opinion with a grain of salt.

New New Milo and in Old English, ‘hal’ which sounds like ‘hell’ means ‘whole’ or ‘wholeness’.
And upon typing this, I can see how ‘hell’ can be equated to being a ‘hole’ phonetically.
Don’t wanna sound too religious or spiritual, but perhaps once we can embrace the ‘hole’ or ‘hell’ within we can be ‘whole’ again and enter ‘hal’.

Yay a video about my country Malaysia 🇲🇾
Borneo is the western mispronunciation of Brunei since Brunei was the main political entity on the island for several centuries. Whilst the westerners began referring the entire island increasingly as Borneo, Brunei was in fact referred to as Borneo Proper, that is apparent when the sultanate's power began to wane in the following centuries. There were several predecessor states to Brunei such as Po-li and Po-ni. 14th century onwards, the name Brunei is used, when Brunei was recorded as one of the vassals of the Majapahit Empire as Burune or Baruneng. Whilst it is possible that Brunei might originate from Sanskrit words Varuna, it is also possible that Brunei (which is itself a western spelling) came from Baru-Nah! or "That's it!" in Brunei Malay, signifying the establishment of new settlement/ kingdom.
In the case of Sarawak, the name Sarawak had existed since, at least from the 14th century thus the name Sarawak that originated from Saya-serah-awak is less likely. The early state of Sarawak originally only encompassed the area around Kuching, and according to Brunei records, there existed several other native states besides Sarawak (not present day Sarawak), such as Kalakah, Saribas, Semarahan & Mukah and a rival settlement in the east Brunei Bay called Bacanja. Present day Sarawak is huge due to the successful expansionist activities of the White Rajahs of Sarawak.
According to negarakerragama (writen1365l)..mention
Baruneng or Barune (historian indentify it as Brunei).. Which is strong probably came from Varuna with local tongue become Barune..then later western tounge become borneo.
Some part serawak also mentioned in negarakerragama..
Sibu (or cebu) which is historian indentify it as place surround by sibu river. Cmiiw.
Indonesian locally called the island as KALIMANTAN. According to historian from my university (Universitas Indonesia in Depok, Java), Kalimantan is derived from "parimata" which then changed to "karimata". "Parimata" cognates with Indonesian word "permata", meaning "gem". She explained in her book, "The Sultanate of Banjarmasin" that people began to call the island as "parimata" when they discovered huge amount of gem in and around Banjarmasin, which is situated in southeastern end of the island.
Whereas Borneo, if I wasn't mistaken, got the name from Portuguese broken pronounciation of the Brunei Empire/Sultanate which is situated in the northern coast of present-day Borneo Island. Please, remember, Brunei once was larger than Burnei that what we know today. Then the name is gained international foothold and became the solely international name (compared to Indonesia's Kalimantan).
Note:
Indonesian and Malaysian are both a different standardized register of Malay language. However, Indonesian tends to exclusive say their language is not Malay, because for some of us, Malay is just Malaysian stuff, which is a shame. No less than 2-3% of Indonesians are Malay which distributed mainly in West Kalimantan, Riau, Riau Islands, and East Coast of Sumatra. So, (some) Indonesian is not less Malay than Malaysia.
