Kota Belud MP calls for distinction between Pati and stateless people amid citizenship suggestion for Sabah ’s Bajau Laut communityKUALA LUMPUR, July 1 — Isnaraissah Munirah Majilis today called for concerted efforts to educate the public on distinguishing between undocumented migrants known as “Pendatang Tanpa Izin in Malay” in Malay or Pati, and stateless people, amid a storm over the ongoing eviction of the indigenous Bajau Laut community from their illegal settlements in Sabah .
“Pati refers to undocumented immigrants who enter a country without proper documentation and through improper channels, while stateless individuals are those without citizenship,” she added.According to Isnaraissah, talks about what to do about the Bajau Laut is timely but citizenship issues in Malaysia are very sensitive to the point that “no politician in Sabah wants to talk about it”.
