KUALA LUMPUR, Dec twenty-four The Home Ministry has blamed "communication problems" caused by untrained National Registration Department (NRD) staff for Perlis Mufti Dr Juanda Jaya's failure to obtain an temperament label for his 12-year-old daughter.
Ministry secretary-general Tan Sri Mahmood Adam pronounced today staff manning the counter during NRD Kuching had failed to properly explain to Juanda which certain personal annals have to be updated prior to an temperament label can be released to immature kids in cases where their mom is the unfamiliar national. He pronounced in the matter which this was in line with new mandate ruling the issuance of temperament cards to 12-year-olds with "citizenship-related problems", which came into force on Jun 11, 2009.
"The status of immature kids from the matrimony in between the Malaysian male as well as the unfamiliar inhabitant must be updated prior to an temperament label can be released for the first time, as well as either the mom or father must present the duplicate of their matrimony certificate for confirmation ...
"In Dr Juanda's case, his wife is an Indonesian inhabitant as well as the couple have 6 immature kids born in 1997, 1999, 2000, 2004, 2006 as well as 2010. According to the NRD, all their birth annals were updated prior to the procession was enforced, solely for (Juanda's youngest daughter) Sumaiyah," he said.
Mahmood pronounced Sumaiyah's temperament label was now ready for pick up as well as stressed which the Home Ministry would ensure only qualified NRD staff deal with the public in the future.
Juanda yesterday lashed out during the civil service as well as Putrajaya after the NRD informed him which his daughter was not the Malaysian citizen.
The incident occurred when Juanda, who is Mela! nau, tri ed to request for an temperament label for his 12-year-old daughter during the NRD bureau in Kuching.
"My kid is stateless! What kind of system is this? Are we in Africa or pell-mell Zimbabwe?" he pronounced in the statement.
"At the time when many foreigners are pronounced to have been given citizenship, my daughter who is the Melanau, the Sarawak Bumiputera whose right to citizenship is clearly recorded in the Constitution, is suddenly pronounced not to be the Malaysian national."
Juanda pronounced which whilst his wife was an Indonesian national, there was no reason because his immature daughter should be victimised, generally given the NRD's own annals identified the latter as the Melanau.
He pointed out his daughter had visited kin in Jakarta progressing this month on her Malaysian passport, as well as questioned how she could possibly be tagged in the NRD system as the non-citizen in light of her recent travels abroad.
