DBP Act amendment set to raise public awareness on use of Malay language

Monday, 06 Jul 2020 10:31 PM MYT

According to the Malaysian Translators Association , the proposed amendment to allow DBP take legal action against those who do not respect the national language can also strengthen the Malay language as the national language and one of the world’s major languages. “Through the government’s commitment to amend the DBP Act, we are confident that all parties will consent to the use of the Malay language as the national language in all aspects of life,” according to the PPM in a statement today.
