The importance of

the constitution has always been underrated in Malaysia, where laws, by-laws and rules were passed without even a glance as to whether they violate the constitution in any way, except of course when it serves the legislators to look at it. If there is such a thing as selective amnesia, there is such a thing as selective understanding of constitutional provisions.

Maybe the lawmakers in Malaysia need to undergo Constitution of Malaysia 101.
