THE disputed maritime area off Sabah should be referred to as Laut Sulawesi, not Ambalat, as the latter is a term used by Indonesia to bolster its territorial claims, says Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan.
Speaking in the Dewan Rakyat yesterday, Mohamad said the contested area includes Blocks ND6 and ND7, which Malaysia maintains lie within its sovereign waters.
