Issue Date: | 2017 | Source: | Rashaad Ali (2017). RUU 355 rallies: Gauging support for Islamic law in Malaysia. (RSIS Commentaries, No. 038). RSIS Commentaries. Singapore: Nanyang Technological University. | Series/Report no.: | RSIS Commentaries, 038-17 | Abstract: | The proposed changes to Malaysia’s Criminal Jurisdiction Act 1965 – also known as Act 355 – seek to raise the penalties for certain crimes under Shariah jurisdiction. The move has provoked strong public reaction, as seen in two rallies on 18 February 2017. The controversy demonstrates a nation still divided over race and religion amid a looming general election. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/80376 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/42151 |
