KUALA LUMPUR: The citizenship application process should be simplified as some applicants may not have the means or capacity to meet all the requirements, says Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye.
"The government, through the Home Ministry, has been proactive in handling issues of citizenship," the social activist said in a statement on Wednesday .
"Children become stateless through no fault of their own. What they lack is only proper documentation. This can be resolved with the stroke of a pen," he said. He commended the Home Ministry for being quick to act on the Cabinet’s decision a month ago to amend the Federal Constitution in order for children born overseas to Malaysian mothers to automatically become citizens.
