KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 24 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun
Razak on Thursday tabled a motion in the Dewan Rakyat to revoke three
emergency proclamations.
The proclamations, issued by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, are the Emergency Proclamation 1966, Emergency Proclamation 1969 and Emergency Proclamation 1977.
The 1969 emergency proclamation was issued on May 15, 1969, following racial riots two days earlier.
The 1966 and 1977 emergency proclamations, issued on Sept 14, 1966, in Sarawak and Nov 8, 1977, in Kelantan, respectively, were aimed at resolving political disputes in the two states.
Najib, in tabling the motion, said the move to annul the emergency proclamations was made because the conditions which threatened security and public order then no longer existed.
