I love Dusun verb morphology.

Pogun, in the modern sense, refers to a state or country.

With an actor transitive prefix, mON-, momogun, is "to be a native to a pogun". (Actually more nuanced than that, but let's pretend it's not.)

Switch to the transitive focus circumfix, pON-...-an, and you get pomogunan, "where one is native to a pogun", i.e. "the world". (We'll probably have to rethink the semantic value of this one once we achieve extraterrestrial terraforming.)

The prefix sON- refers to one whole of something, so sompomogunan ultimately refers to "the globe".

But! Here's where we enter wild, wild east territory:

pOpO- is the actor causative, thus poposompomogunan is "to cause to (be of the) globe" or "globalize".

And finally, if we replace it with its referent counterpart pO-...-an, we reach this monstrosity:

"the result of globalizing"! Yay! :D

Happy Kaamatan and solidarity with all workers of the world! This is my attempt at translating one of Mao's most iconic works directly from Mandarin into Dusun, both as personal practice to prove that it is possible to not heavily rely on Malay loanwords to translate text of this register, and as potential propaganda dissemination material, especially for a lot of older rural Dusuns whose first language is such. Here is a PNG-formatted side-by-side comparison of my translation with the original text:
