Kuala Lumpur: The government today failed in its bid to have the court throw out a lawsuit filed by a civil society and six Malaysian women who are married to foreigners for their overseas-born children to have the right to become Malaysian citizens.
High Court Judge Datuk Akhtar Tahir, in dismissing an application by the Attorney-General Chambers (AGC) to strike out the lawsuit, rejected the government’s argument that the court case was frivolous.

AGC seeks to strike out mothers' child citizenship suit

KUALA LUMPUR (April 27): The government of Malaysia has asked the High Court to strike out a lawsuit filed by civil society and six mothers, who are married to foreigners, for their overseas-born children to have the right to become Malaysian citizens.
Among the grounds cited for the striking out of the application were that the suit, which was filed by way of an originating summons, was scandalous, frivolous and vexatious and an abuse of court process.
Senior Federal Counsel Ahmad Hanir Hambaly, who acted for the government, said that under the Federal Constitution in relation to children born outside of Malaysia, it was crystal clear that only those born to a Malaysian father would be entitled to citizenship by operation of law. ....
