ANY decision to give land titles of 999 years or permanent titles to new villagers is against the Federal Constitution.

Mentri Besar Ahmad Faizal Azumu (PH-Chenderiang) said the 53rd National Land Council meeting on April 25, 1997, has set the leasehold for new villages to at least 60 years or not more than 99 years.
