Are vernacular schools constitutional? Lawyer files motion with Federal Court

"I am challenging that the existence of vernacular schools are against the Federal Constitution," he said in a statement.

"Through the notice, I am seeking a declaration that Parliament had no power to amend Section 17 and Section 28 of the Education Act 1996, on grounds that it contravened Article 152 of the Constitution," he said. "If the court made a ruling that the vernacular schools are unconstitutional, I call for the status of such schools to be changed to Sekolah Kebangsaan, and for the Malay language to be used as the medium of instruction," he said.

Is that statement even constitutional haha 🤣? Oh well.

Racists come in all shapes and sizes. Would you knowingly seek legal services from a racist law firm?

Malayan do respect the supremacy of the MA63 treaty and constitution !!!

Let'see what the Federal Court has to say...

Since now the sjk now being funded by government all subject should change to bahasa kebangsaan and change sjk to sk

Every school that educates core subjects is constitutional. Language is only a medium.
