All Malaysian states money belongs to the federal government in KL.
You are under the control in many areas. From police, to transport, to hospital, to foreign investment and trade.
So you must surrender all income from taxes and reserves to the Federal government. In return, they decide the budget for you annually.
That's why Singapore quickly got kicked out when we disagreed to surrender our national reserves.

That's the consequence of being a part of a Federation.

Government and peepur soon sprang into action. Today's zooners and yoomers owe a debt to the sacrifices, blood, sweat and tears of the pioneer generation.

GKS knew our national reserves is critical to all Singaporean's survival. And our freedom in the Singapore development with foreign investors is our future.
Today's Singaporean whom is selling Malaysia or JB to our locals are either blind, brainless or plain scheming...🤣
Once we fallen back into the trap, there is no reverse.
The JB Prince statement is a fine example.

Their Sultanate originated way back to 1528 long before the unwelcome British / Dutch colonization n swap in 1824 .
Wish they can issue their own currency like the Scotland or maybe form economic union with other State to their south and still stay put Federated.

I think today's Malaysia base on the 1963 agreement;
The Federal Constitution of Malaysia (Malay: Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia), which came into force in 1957 as the Constitution of the Federation of Malaya and was amended in 1963 to form the Constitution of Malaysia.
