KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 17 — Kulai MP Teo Nie Ching today challenged the ruling Barisan Nasional to amend the Federal Constitution to confer automatic citizenship to overseas-born children of Malaysian mothers.
“I see no reason why amendments to the Federal Constitution, vis a vis the change for mothers to pass on their citizenship to their children born overseas cannot be put into the next Parliamentary meeting. She added that if Zahid were serious and sincere, the Umno president could even instruct Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, who is also the party vice-president, to call for a special parliamentary sitting to amend the constitution clause on citizenship right away.
She said Zahid could have “outrightly intervened when the government opposed the High Court’s ruling in favour of the mothers in the first place”.
