Dr Mahathir’s regrettable ‘unconstitutional to promote Malaysia as multiracial’ remark
Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s statement claiming it is unconstitutional to promote Malaysia as a multiracial country is branded as legally groundless. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, July 5, 2023.
“As a former prime minister for more than two decades, it is certain that Dr Mahathir had access to legal advice through the attorney-general, and therefore, he should be aware of the legal position regarding this matter. In fact, Ramkarpal said the Federal Court, in the case of Dhinesh Tanaphll versus Crime Prevention Board & Others in 2022, stated that article 3 of the Federal Constitution regarding religion is part of the fundamental structure of the constitution that cannot be amended by parliament through constitutional amendments.
