‘BE CLEAR ON ISSUE ABOUT STATELESS KIDS’

‘Be clear on issue about stateless kids’

Street children PUTRAJAYAFeb 26, 2012: The Home Ministry needs to tread carefully in its efforts to resolve the issue of stateless children in Sabah, said Barisan Nasional senior leaders from the state.

They said the ministry must take into account the feelings of Sabahans.

download-crop Umno vice-president Datuk Mohd Shafie Apdal said the Home Ministry must ensure that the efforts would not be seen as a move to force Sabahans to share their rights with stateless children.

“The mechanism to determine whether or not to give them identification documents, such as the MyKad, must be clearly spelt out,” he said.

Mohd Shafie, who is also Semporna MP and Rural and Regional Development Minister, said stateless children who were entitled should be given the documents to enable them to have access to education.

Hishammuddin-crop Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein on Thursday said resolving the issue was a priority.

Papar MP Datuk Rosnah Rashid Shirlin said the Home Ministry should ensure the mechanism was foolproof and acceptable to datuk rosnah-croplocals.

Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) president Datuk Liew Vui Keong said the issue of stateless children should be resolved soon.

“I don't anticipate any change to the Cabinet's decision,” Dompok, who is also the Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister, said yesterday.

  6. This is a very delicate issue.The children do not choose to born in this place and become stateless.

    At times the parents refuse to acknowlege them because of being illegal or the parents already deported or died .

    It must be handle with humanity and care not foregetting the interest of the LOCAL/SABAHAN !!

  7. Its sad to see these stateless children begging for money in the street and even have to resort to stealing in order to survive. They are still young and innocent. They must be given proper education even though their parents could be illegal immigrants. After all they are still young and innocent. They didn't ask for this kind of life.
