Updating our archaic laws

MINISTER in the Prime Minister’s Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said must be congratulated for recognising that more than 3,000 outdated laws need review.

In support of the minister’s courageous admission, it needs to be admitted that life is larger than the law. Most, if not all, aspects of the legal system need growth and evolution to avoid the danger of being out of tune with the times.
