Restoring the spirit of independence


IN conjunction with our 61st anniversary of independence, a few NGOs organised a forum on Tuesday night on the topic “Malaysia Baru – 61 Years After Merdeka, Do Ethnicity & Religion Matter?”.

I was entrusted with the task of covering the constitutional dimension of the topic. I took the opportunity to point out that the spirit of the Federal Constitution is one of recognition of the dignity of all citizens irrespective of their origin.
