Continuation of my write up on the constitution
Few points to ponder:
- Islam is the official religion of Malaysia but it does not mean that other religion cannot be practiced.
- States with rulers (Sultan) – the Head of religion would be the Sultan. Conference of rulers might extend this position or powers to Agong.
- Head of religion for Penang, Malacca, Sabah and Sarawak is YDP Agong.
- Head of religion for the Federal Territories is YDP Agong.
Well – I supposed in the state constitution its stated that the ruler or Sultan for the states will need to be a Muslim, otherwise there is a contradiction between the Head of religion versus the official religion.
