FAMILY Frontiers welcomes the formation of the committee led by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein to address the rights of Malaysian women to confer citizenship on their overseas-born children.
We hope the committee acts swiftly: Delaying Malaysian women’s equal citizenship rights will result in women and children being forced to remain in situations of harm and violence and children being denied a wide range of fundamental rights such as education, healthcare and freedom of movement.
