In my 40 years of advocacy I have never seen such a wide public demand from all quarters to drop the damaging amendments affecting children in the “Proposed reforms to citizenship laws in Malaysia” — G25 | Malay Mail https://t.co/48FKJ5Tydt
Decouple the amendments - push through the mother’s right to ensure citizenship for their foreign born children and stop the regressive amendments. Be brave. Do the right thing all MPs!
If i may spell out red flags:
1. We are being asked to accept children losing rights over enabling mothers right (as if both are not equally important)
2. doesn’t address current causes of statelessness instead multiply it
3. Not only court, but MPs no longer can question
YB @saifnasution will there be consideration for 21 year old above stateless persons to place citizenship application? Right now, JPN only accepts applications if there is approval from KDN. Unrealistic SOP.
