Constitutional role of PM


I WISH to take readers way back to June 1957, two months before Merdeka Day. In that month, a White Paper called “Constitutional Proposals for the Federation of Malaya” was presented by the Secretary of State to the British Parliament by command of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

In the proposed Constitution of Federation of Malaya to be adopted on Merdeka Day, Article 122 (on the Supreme Court and its judges) read as follows:

Play, subscribe and stand a chance to win prizes worth over RM39,000! T&C applies.
