Asal Usul Kaum Suluk / Tausug

[DonKhalifa]

Yes. They are residents of mindanao and jolo, where the PTI (suluks) are from and also abu syaff supporters.

But PTI also includes Pakistanis, indonesians, bugis and so forth....so, tausang (not tausug) are also in the list of PTI we have in our state.

Most tausau or "rules of jolo and the sulu seas" are descendents of the sultan of sulu and are his generally his subjects.

Ya you are right..........Atleast they are your leader...your CM some more.....maybe they tought you are still wearing Cawat........Go out and tell them don't be shy...tell your leader about this PTI stuff...let them know that you can afford to buy your own clothes now....or maybe you can ask your head hunter to sacrifice some more of your tribes so that the UMNO spirit will be gone forever.

Our current cm is mixed pakistani, brunei and kadazan. Not suluk.

No. His father was pakistani, and had 2 wives if memory serves me correct. Musa is from the 2nd wife and his mother is bruniean, which qualifies him as a bumiputera. He was/is also born in Sabah. Therefore, he is not a PTI.

Not that I want to start a "he is...no he isn't" debate.

i know for a fact because my family didn't live all that far from Beaufort and knew about his family when his eldest brother (Ayub) was in politics in the mid to late 80's.

1. What do you mean His father WAS Pakistani...? Are you telling me that we can change our race?

2. I also know Ayub Aman, His Son Johari Ayub, Hasnol Ayub & Irwan Ayub.They invited me to join Penampang UMNO but i refuse.

I use the word "was" because he isn't alive anymore. Should I now change the past tense to indicate he was alive but isn't alive anymore? I already wrote, he was a pakistani. Which part of that don't you understand? You are beginning to sound like joshua now.....scary.

airbus,
you should put,
his late father is pakistani..

[Sepilok]

his late father is pakistani..

actually Airbus is correct.
Even if you are going to use "late" it still has to be "was" rather than "is" - as using "is" suggest he is still around. You could use "is" if he was a Zombie or whatever the Sabahan equivalent is.

The subject was the CMs father and as he is deceased - you have to use the past tense i.e "was". It not inferring that he has changed race and in fact Pakistani is not a race, but a nationality.

The use of "was a pakistani" is used the world over in everyday conversation and its use is also accepted when talking about the demise of someone; I don't know many people who go around saying "...the late john.."

It is a norm in everyday english. Just because the use of "was" is inserted in to the conversation, it doesn't mean it HAS to indicate past tense on the subject matter. It can also be inserted when talking about something or someone who did something either recently, or in the past and the use of "was a pakistani" is to indicate that he is no longer here and he was a pakistani national.

I can also use WAS to indicate to you NOW, that "I WAS GOING TO THE SUPERMARKET, BUT SINCE YOU ARE HERE, I WON'T GO." Is that past tense or present tense?

Don't make it so complicated because you are way deep over your head when discussing this....
