Thanks for the clarification. The way I read the sentence, however, it does not necessarily agree with the government's reasoning. "To [something]" is commonly used to imply that [something] was the rationale for doing so, and does not necessarily agree with the rationale. Johnleemk | Talk 12:26, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

No problem. We're all human anyway. :) By the way, you can sign your name with four tildes, like this: ~ Johnleemk | Talk 12:35, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

The sources I have already mentioned but you don't seem to read or even understand them.

And I never claimed that PBS had delineated the election boundaries by itself.

If you really want the truth, you surely can find them.

To give you a headstart: you can compare with the widely stated state seats won by USNO(Muslim Native), UPKO(Non-Muslim Native, not necessarily Christian), SCA(Chinese)

You can verify the figure of 47% Muslim population censure in 1967.

If you want more, you can always study the voting results for 1984 and study their areas. It was very obvious and used by PBS as its campaigning tools.

All of these have already been mentioned but you don't bother to read or understand them. Verify them yourself.

You can get the 1960 statistics from: http://books.google.com.my/books?id=R1ME01zxL98C&pg=PA481&lpg=PA481&dq=population+religion+sabah&source=web&ots=QVUfbAqNbW&sig=d4aa31S7M5fLLm0D6mszUcmA4Co&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=4&ct=result#PPA482,M1

In 1960,

Christians 16.6, Muslims, 37.9

Data taken from the book: Page 482 Religions and Societies, Asia and the Middle East: Asia and the Middle East By Carlo Caldarola Published by Walter de Gruyter, 1982 ISBN 902793259X, 9789027932594 688 pages

My knowledge is not based on this book but my Secondary School Geography Text book which uses the 1967 Census to show that 47% Sabahans were Muslims.
