Please visit https://mahwengkwai.com/talks-signup/ to register for upcoming talks. Overview: “I was born in Malaysia, but why am I stateless instead of Malaysian?” Many individuals born and raised in Malaysia remain stateless due to unfavourable interpretations of the Federal Constitution, shifting NRD policies, and recent Court of Appeal decisions affecting foundlings, abandonment cases, and illegitimacy. Join us for this online talk, where our speakers will explain the latest appellate court developments, how these decisions now affect citizenship applications and litigation strategy, and what affected individuals and communities must prepare to pursue lawful recognition as Malaysian citizens. Talk Points: ● Recent cases in the Federal Court, Court of Appeal and High Court ● Judgments that redefine citizenship entitlements ● Evidence needed to prove abandonment ● Legal strategies following rejection of citizenship applications Speakers: Kirthika Padmanapan (Associate), Alyssa Dalila (Associate) Moderator: Clarisa Hoh (Pupil In Chambers)
