KUALA LUMPUR, April 12 — Perikatan Nasional's Maran MP Datuk Seri Ismail Abd Muttalib has questioned the government’s rationale for recognising citizens born after the country’s independence regardless of skin colour.
"Is it true the government intends to grant recognition to citizens born after independence without taking into account skin colour?In response to the question, Saifuddin said granting citizenship to individuals born before or after Malaysia’s independence is subject to the laws spelt out in the Third Schedule of the Federal Constitution, the Citizenship Rules 1964 and other relevant enforcement provisions.
"Every citizenship application received is processed and examined accordingly based on the conditions and laws that apply without distinction of ancestry or the skin colour of the applicant,” Saifuddin said.
