PN unhappy govt dropped foundlings amendment

Perikatan Nasional today expressed its unhappiness over the proposed changes to the Federal Constitution regarding citizenship.

What Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail had briefed PN MPs differed from the current state of the bill, opposition chief whip Takiyuddin Hassan said during a press conference at Parliament.

PN also disagreed with dropping the amendment, which would require foundlings to gain citizenship through registration and not by force of law, he added.
