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.
