description Management of security threats in Malaysia has been complicated by the existence of two physical territories between the Peninsula and Borneo that are separated by the South China Sea. Controlling and managing security, particularly in the Sabah territory, have faced myriad internal and external challenges. These challenges are indeed influenced by historical and political factors. This thesis, therefore, examines the role played by various Malaysian security agencies that involve in formulating policies, i.e., National Security Council (NSC) and other implementing agencies - Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF), the Royal Malaysian Police (RMP), Malaysia Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA). The thesis discusses how the internal and external political dynamics have greatly challenged those agencies in managing ' 'Sabah's security. In addition, this thesis also analyses other influencing factors like ' 'Sabah's physical geography and regional politics, which could affect security agencies' effectiveness in managing the threats. This thesis applies the Developing 'Countries' National Security Theory as a major theoretical framework. The qualitative approach was used as a research design, where cross-sectional case studies and library research were adopted as the main method. The study used two major data- primary and secondary.
