  • While civil society applauds the government's efforts to amend the Federal Constitution to grant citizenship to children born overseas to Malaysian mothers, the proposed amendments include unexpected changes that could exacerbate Malaysia's statelessness issue.
    How will these proposed amendments impact the people on the ground, and do they truly have the best interests of the children at heart?

      Thanks, but we do believe other news organisations have written about this as well. Perhaps we're lucky to have a platform here on TH-cam to put out more video-based content that reaches a different audience... Anyway, thanks again for the kind comment.

    Hopefully all those eligible stateless people will fairly get to be malaysian. They can contribute to pay taxes and top up local work force to boost our slow economy after pandemic.

    Government operate base on race base again. Other races very difficult and can't get PR. Making overseas marriage and return couples or International Couples very difficult to get PR. My uncle (British Citizens been marriage now 85 years over live in Malaysia without PR. Marriage Chinese my aunty local Malaysians from young 26 years old now 85 years (pass away) cannot get PR. Its so disappointed and racism unethical.

      Ms majority of those stateless people are 'Malay' by race which discredit your comment. Its not about race its about govt ineptitude. Plus, would you or society want to pay extra taxes to help pay for their integration and etc? Don't just talk la, use your brain as well. If your uncle who've lived so long in the country but have not gotten PR then its something wrong with him la.

    2:36 so? why blame the gov and the laws for ur own blunder? most of these stateless parents especially mother sees malaysia as crap, and want opportunity to be, say , american. but when sh*t happened and they got a divorce or something, they want to be back to malaysia that they view as crap in the 1st place.
    if the parent is a responsible person and register and does everything accordingly, these wont happen. u guys dont want to register because u hate malaysia, and when things happen u try to show sad face and play victim. yes poor kids, but the parents fault

    Yeah good, its better this way. If one is given easily, there will be more vying for the citizenship. The china mainland ‘tourist’, rohingya, bangladesh and more will start asking for it. Be grateful that you can still live in malaysia lol.
