Article 14 of the Federal Constitution provides: -
Citizenship by operation of law
1) Subject to the provisions of this Part, the following persons are citizens by operation of law, that is to say:
a) every person born before Malaysia Day who is a citizen of the Federation by virtue of the provisions contained in Part 1 of the Second Schedule; and
b) every person born on or after Malaysia Day and having any of the qualifications specified in Part II of the Second Schedule.
This is a classical UMNO style politics. They take away what is rightfully, legally and constitutionally yours, make you beg UMNO for years and years UMNO gives you a run around and finally UMNO gives their MIC Mandores a role to play by making and/or passing off as if they fought for and secured UMNO’s help in getting for example this citizenship which should have been Minachis’ ab initio (from the very beginning).
Now this MIC mandore says “ I had dealt with four or five (UMNO) ministers who said they would look into it, but it was Hishamuddin who gave an assurance and delivered,” he said.
The UMNO Indian MIC mandore thanked Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and Hishammuddin for attending to the Indians who had problems getting citizenship.
In furtherance of the “ayam telur sebiji, rioh sekampong” “wayang kulit” this UMNO’s MIC Indian mandore lies through his teeth by saying “I believe more than 1, 000 indians received the good news in September that they are now citizens”.
Wow! What a wonderful government UMNO could be! Bravo! UMNO!
