Malaysia===Sabah gains authority to manage and regulate scheduled waste on land and in its waters, aligning with the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63) and Article 95C of the Federal Constitution. This is expected to have a positive impact on environmental governance and strengthen its position within Malaysia.

Malaysia===Sabah is a Malaysian state directly affected by the border demarcation, as parts of three villages in Nunukan now fall within its territory. The Malaysia===Sabah state government is fully involved in the negotiation process.
