SABAH MCA welcomes the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Parliament and Law) Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar’s recent announcement that the government is planning to table a Bill to amend several provisions of the Federal Constitution to bring it in line with the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (“MA63”), reinstating the rights of the peoples of Sabah and Sarawak as enshrined in the MA63.
The move by the minister to engage with Members of Parliament in order to obtain the two-thirds majority required for amending the Constitution, and also to engage with rakyat on the MA63, ensures that this Amendment will be done in the spirit of representative democracy and receive bipartisan support.
