WE are delighted that the government, through the able leadership of our Law Minister Azalina Othman, is beginning the process of amending the Federal Constitution to allow Malaysian women the right to confer their citizenship onto their overseas-born children. This a progressive step that will bless many children and families.

We ask at the same time that the government consider the rights of persons with disabilities (PwD).
