Consider This: Parliament (Part 1) - Cloud Over Emergency Revocation

from Consider This · host Consider This

On Day 1, de facto law minister Takiyuddin Hassan stunned Dewan Rakyat by claiming that the Cabinet had decided to revoke all six Emergency Ordinances. He had explicitly stated that the revocation took effect on July 21st. Many have questioned if the Ordinances have in fact been revoked, given the lack of a published gazette, and the legitimacy of enforcement under Emergency powers.But it seem these uncertainty is set to continue after Takiyuddin Hassan refused to clarify the matter to the Dewan Rakyat this morning, saying he would only do so after the emergency expires, on August 2nd. Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to lawyer New Sin Yew.
