.:INDEPENDENCE DAY EDITION:Constitution of Malaysia.:

Before started our class ,our lecturer En.Ahmad asked us about Constitution of Malaysia.
What is Constitution of Malaysia?
The Federal Constitution of Malaysia is the supreme law of MALAYSIA. The 1957 Constitution of the Federation of Malaya is the basis of this document. It establishes Malaysia as a constitutional monarchy having the Yang Di-Pertuan Agong as the Head of Statewhose roles are largely ceremonial. It provides for the establishment and the organization of three main branches of the government: the bicameral legislative branch called the Parliament, which consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate; the executive branch led by the Prime Minister and consists of Cabinet Ministers; and the judicial branch headed by the Federal Court.

Let us focus on
Article 152; states that the national language is the Malay language.
However, the Constitution guarantees the freedom of learning and using of other languages, except on official purposes. Official purposes here means any purpose of the Government, whether Federal or State, and includes any purpose of a public authority. To this effect, all court proceedings and parliamentary documents and meetings are conducted in Malay.

and

Article 153; states that Yang di-Pertuan Agong or King of Malaysia responsibility for safeguarding the special position of the Malay and other indigenous peoples of Malaysia, collectively referred to as Bumiputra and the legitimate interests of all the other communities. The article specifies how the King may protect the interest of these groups by establishing quotas for entry into the civil service, public sholarships and public education.

Respon from one of class member ,he said that article 153 is practical depends on situation.where the speciality given to Malay in certain situation can help Malay to develop but if this specialty use in wrong way,it will slow down the development because of mind set that all the speciality is given to them.
Besides,another students said that the speciality is fair because of the originality.Where,Malay is the fisrt race in Malaysia who suffered from from the first.

Whatever opinion from us..CONSTITUTUON of MALAYSIA is the best set up for all MALAYSIAN..
