Pahang's Jawi script requirement does not contravene Federal Constitution, rules Appeals Court

PUTRAJAYA: Two businessmen have failed in their appeal to revoke an order by the Kuantan Municipal Council for business premises to display Jawi script on signboards.

A three-judge Court of Appeal panel chaired by Justice Yaacob Md Sam unanimously dismissed the appeal by Jehan Abdullah and A. Dana Palan on grounds that there were no appealable errors by the High Court that could warrant appellate intervention.
