WHAT THE WORLD THINKS
The assets of the Sultan of Sulu and North Borneo, Sultan Jamalul
Kiram consist of 617,500 MT of Au AND 500,000 pieces of 10-karat
diamonds. This mass quantity of Au was brought to Manila in 1935,
through the Sultan Julaspi’s father’s trustees namely, Julian Macleod
Tallano (the grandson of Alfred Dent-one of the lesses of the Sultanate
of Sulu and North Borneo/Sabah, circa January 4, 1878) and Reverend
Father Antonio Diaz a.k.a. Col. Severino Santa Romana.
POSTLUDE
It is a recorded fact that many countries all over the world owe their Au
back up of their respective Central Banks to the wealth of the Sultan of
Sulu. Even Malaysia, which had been rude towards the family of the
late Sultan Julaspi Kiram, can never deny the fact that without the
Sultan’s wealth, Malaysia would not become what it is now.
The Philippine Government has likewise no right to run after this AU
and cash accounts for it does not belong to them. Even before Marcos
became the President, the Sultanate had outstanding AU and cash
accounts in various banks all over the world. Even their own Supreme
Court of the Philippines had recorded the saga of the Sultanate’s
wealth of how it has raised the country’s economy, of how these were
wrongfully and unfairly tossed to several accounts. The Philippines
therefore cannot profess recovering wealth it does not own.
SULTAN HADJI RODINOOD, the eldest son of Sultan Julaspi Kiram and
the rightful Heir to the throne of the Royal Sultanate of Sulu and North
Borneo/Sabah is calling on the leaders of the world to heed his father’s
Last Will and Testament that his family be restored to its rightfully
standing, to revive the Sultanate of Sulu and North Borneo and to
utilize his assets where they could ultimately make difference to uplift
the lives of many, not only of the Sultanate, but also all people around
the world.
All these assets were eventually transported to
Vatican City in 1939 in the effort to protect them
from the escalating World War II. After the World
War II was over, particularly in 1949 the afore named
trustees, with the assistance of then young and
brilliant lawyer, Atty. Ferdinand E. Marcos brought back the Au to the
Philippines (Atty. Marcos would eventually become the Senate
President, then elected as the President of the Philippines and would
hold to the presidency for more than 20 years). For reasons of both
safekeeping and assisting the stability of the reborne Philippine
Republic, the Philippine government borrowed these assets on January
7, 1949 to augment and achieve the gold reserve of its newly
instituted Philippine Central Bank. Because of the Sultan’s gold reserve
with the Central Bank, the Philippine peso had stabilized in the period
of 1949 to 1960, when the value of the peso against the dollar barely
ranged from $1:P2 to $1:P4.
