Abolishment of Sedition Act would disrupt nation’s peace

The Sedition Act provides protection on several matters concerning the institution of monarchy, Bumiputera rights and privileges, as well as freedom of speech.
musa hassan bukit amanKUALA LUMPUR: The peace and stability enjoyed by the people in the country can be disrupted if the Sedition Act 1948 is abolished because several rights and privileges of the Bumiputeras stipulated in the Federal Constitution can be challenged.
Former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said, right now, the Act provided protection on several matters concerning the institution of monarchy, Bumiputera rights and privileges, as well as freedom of speech.
“I think if the Sedition Act is abolished, anybody can challenge the privileges given to Bumiputeras in the Constitution.
“If this happens, I think the country will not be peaceful anymore and public safety can be shaken,” he told Bernama after appearing as a guest speaker in the Ruang Bicara Bernama TV programme here last night..
Musa said the Act need not be abolished or replaced by a new law, but could be modified to meet the current situation.
Prior to this, the government had proposed to abolish the Act and replace it with the National Harmony Act.
