Interior Secretary Manuel “Mar” Roxas II and the brother of Sulu Sultan Jamalul Kiram III discussed “disengagement” as part of efforts to end the 4-week Sabah standoff. Roxas and Bantilan Esmail Kiram II met in Camp Crame, Quezon City March 11. Esmail Kiram is the younger brother of Jamalul, and the elder brother of Agbimuddin (also known as Raja Muda) who is leading the Kiram followers in Sabah.

After a first proposed meeting in Brunei did not push through, Esmail Kiram II hopes this time he will be able to talk to the Malaysians.
