KUALA LUMPUR, April 7 — Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka has suggested that a new act be drafted to provide the body with more authority especially in term of enforcement relating to the misuse of language, as well as to provide accreditation towards the standard of language at various levels.
Awang, who is also a Dewan Negara member said that they had prepared a suggested amendment to the DBP Act 1959 last year to empower the functions of DBP, but it was still being reviewed by the Education Ministry after taking the views of the Attorney-General’s Chambers into consideration, which suggested that a new act should be drafted as the suggested amendments covered many issues.
“The enforcement mechanism that will be detailed include administrative action with the coordination of other bodies and the imposition of fines in accordance to the Toubon Law 1994 in France,” Awang said.
