| 要約: | The Federal Constitution of Malaysia proclaims itself to be the supreme law.
As rules regulating the system of governance, the constitution is the focal
points in resolving disputes regarding rights and responsibilities of the
government and the governed. The courts in applying the constitution in
resolving contentious disputes sometime arrive at erroneous conclusions either
through misinterpretation or misunderstanding. A correct interpretation and
understanding of the constitution require an appreciation of its history and its
spirit. This paper considers the importance of the constitution by looking at the
problem in construing the constitution and provides suggestions in ensuring
proper application of the rules. |
