Making PM post exclusive to one race against constitution, MA63, says S'wakian lawmaker


KUCHING: Making the Prime Minister's post exclusive to Malays goes against the Federal Constitution and the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63), says a Sarawakian lawmaker.

Bandar Kuching MP Dr Kelvin Yii (pic) said such a move would further divide and create animosity among Malaysians, besides widening the integration gap with Sabah and Sarawak.
