Kompas

Kompas is an Indonesian media outlet. It is newsworthy due to its reporting on ongoing negotiations between Malaysia and Indonesia regarding the Sabah-Kalimantan border on the island of Borneo. A recent article cited by Malaysian Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan indicated a potential land trade, which Malaysia subsequently disputed, stating that negotiations are still in progress and no decisions have been finalized. The Malaysian government clarified that discrepancies exist between mapped areas and the actual terrain, and discussions are proceeding according to the law. While Kompas's specific reporting triggered this response, the underlying issue of border demarcation and potential land swaps between the two nations remains a significant point of discussion and diplomatic engagement.
