The War in Sabah between the Sabah Liberation Army (SLA) against Malaysian colonial authority in Sabah has added another negative memory of conflicting Indo-Malay relations regarding the slaughter of Indonesians and Bangsamoros origins in Sabah. The violence and killings of civilians in a village near Lahad Datu would not be intervened by the current weak Indonesian government. Yet, Indonesians noted and the saga in Sabah has escalated negative stigma on Malaysia before Indonesia. Many experts believe that the war between Indonesia and Malaysia is inevitably a matter of when, a time. The conflicting position of Indonesia-Malaysia is identical with the relations of Palestine-Israel.

Regional shifting powers in the region will dramatically change when a new more committed, strong and reliable government with strong nationalism emerges in Indonesia. The long weak government during the last two decades has caused the loss of Indonesian territory in the Ambalat Sea as wide as 30 miles as the cause of annexation of Sipadan-Ligitan.

The Malaysian government has always undermined Indonesia as a big nation. The Malaysian negative behavior against Indonesia is believed to be caused by its alliance with the Great Britain and Australia as their gods who protect Malaysia. Malaysia put it into account as the sole source of powers for Malaysia.

The current Malaysian government is similar to the old defunct Old Order regime under President Soeharto that undermines human rights and democracy under the pressures of KL' regimes. The gap of economic development in Sabah dan Sarawak which provide as much as one fourth of Malaysian GDP is widening with the development is centralized in the Malay Peninsula. Petaling Jaya business district, Putra Jaya, and the Petronas Twin Towers as the icons of Malaysia were built in the Peninsula.

The lamb duck government of Indonesia has only been able to note a negative psychological assault against the Indonesian citizens and Indonesian origins in Sabah. Indonesians regard Malaysian government as their foes as a result of the Malaysian government undermines Indonesia. At least there are five elements that may trigger a future war between Indonesia and Malaysia.

Firtsly, Malaysia has always acted unilaterally and never pay respects to the elder brother Indonesia that sent thousands of reputable teachers and lecturers to Malaysia in 1970's and Indonesia received thousands of Malaysian students.

Secondly, Malaysian government never protect Indonesian workers in Malaysia. Malaysia also rejected to sign an MoU of protecting the Indonesian workers in Malaysia. The cause is the Malaysian corrupt police officials who illegally receive billions of dollars from illegal workers.

Thirdly, Malaysia's claims for Indonesian cultures and arts such Reog, Pendet dance, batik, rendang-beef-cuisine, Serimpi dance, Saman dance, Malay language, Borobudur temple, Rasa Sayange song, apes, orangutans, and many other things have caused negative sentiments against Malaysia.

Fourthly, seizure of thousands of kilometers of Indonesian lands and rain forests in the borders of Sarawak-Sabah and Indonesia by the KL government and also annexation of two islets of Sipadan and Ligitan have caused a strong hatred among Indonesians against Malaysia.

Indonesia would build an alliance with the old friends of China, Russia as new emerging powers in the world that create more balance power in the region. The only consideration of Indonesian government not to attack Malaysia now days is Malaysia's Alliance with Great Britain and Australia. Nevertheless, after the formation of the Russo-Sino-Indo Alliance. Then, the war between the two nations Malaysia and Indonesia would be inevitably unavoidable.

After the breakage of what is called East Malaysia with the wreak of Sabah and Sarawak from Malaysia and the power balance occurs the mighty Indonesian military will attack Malaysia. The Great Britain is now leading to a third world defunct economy power with the Euro crisis darkening Europe, including the Great Britain.
