Stateless issue must be addressed at its root


WE refer to the statement issued by Home Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin stating that he is looking into the case of Rohana Abdullah, a 22-year-old who is currently stateless and was raised by her Chinese adoptive mother after being abandoned as a baby by her biological mother.

We welcome his statement and urge him to resolve Rohana’s status as a stateless person immediately. The facts are clear, hence there is no need for lengthy investigations or bureaucratic processes. Rohana and her adoptive mother have suffered long enough.
