Selangor MB: Unilateral conversion bill may be tabled again
  • 5 years ago
Selangor Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari has indicated that the controversial amendments to allow unilateral conversions may still be tabled in the state assembly if there is a need to do so.

Speaking to reporters, Amirudin said that at present, only Selangor, Penang and Sabah still differ on the interpretation of laws on the conversion of minors.

"So that was among the reasons to standardise it. But that is only one side of the argument," he said after attending a closed-door dinner with Selangor PKR members and Economic Affairs Minister Mohamed Azmin Ali in Shah Alam last night.

Amirudin noted, however, that there are other arguments against the proposed amendments, including in ongoing legal challenges.
