East Malaysia
East Malaysia (''Malaysia Timur''), also known as Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan (''Sabah, Sarawak dan Labuan'')〔The term "Sabah , Sarawak dan Labuan" (''Sabah , Sarawak dan Labuan'') is more commonly used in Malaysia to avoid the connotation of "East Malaysia" and "West Malaysia" (Peninsular Malaysia) being two separate countries, as in former East Germany and West Germany.〕 or Malaysian Borneo, is the part of Malaysia located on the island of Borneo. It consists of the Malaysian states of Sabah, Sarawak, and Federal Territory of Labuan.〔http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2006:354:0019:0028:EN:PDF〕 It lies to the east of Peninsular Malaysia (West Malaysia),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Location )〕 which is located on the Malay Peninsula. The two are separated by the South China Sea.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Malay Peninsula )〕 While East Malaysia is less populated and less developed than West Malaysia, its land mass is larger and it has notably more natural resources, chiefly oil and gas reserves.
==History==
Some parts of present-day East Malaysia, especially the coastal regions, were once part of the thalassocracy of the Sultanate of Brunei. However, most parts of the interior region consisted of independent tribal societies.
In 1658, the northern and eastern coasts of Sabah were ceded to the Sultanate of Sulu while the west coast of Sabah and most of Sarawak remained part of Brunei. Beginning in the mid 19th century, Sabah and Sarawak became British protectorates, and, in 1946, they became separate British colonies.
