Malaysians, Arise and Claim Our Fundamental Rights

a Malaysia which practices [sic] a organic as well as thorough democracy in accordance with a supremacy of a Constitution, order of law as well as apply oneself for basic tellurian rights as well as sold rights." (Source: HERE)

Recent developments have shown which those who rejoiced during which proclamation dual months ago have been right away up in arms with a recent proclamation which a Peaceful Assembly Bill will be rushed in to law with surprising promptness but competent public consultation.

A matter by Lim Chee Wee, Malaysian Bar Council President, said:

This Bill, Lim explained, was additionally not in line with general norms because of, between others:


Prohibition of travel protests (defined during large as "open air public which begins with a assembly during a specified place as well as con! sists of walking in a mass impetus or rally for a purpose of objecting to or advancing a sold means or causes");


  • Prohibition of organization of assemblies by persons below a age of twenty-one years;

"It is shameful which Burma can introduce a distant more approved law than us.


"It is a distressing insult to Malaysians because we were promised more democracy, though right away it is a opposite," pronounced Ambiga, who is a former Bar Council president.

Many have argued which a Bill seeks to yield a police ! as well as a home apportion with more powers as well as banning travel demonstrations altogether.
