PETALING JAYA: The Human Rights Commission has been left “paralysed” as the government has yet to appoint a new chairman and commissioners.
The tenure of the seven Suhakam commissioners, who sit at the very top of the organisation, came to an end on April 25.“There’s still no announcement yet of the appointment of all the commissioners, including the chair,” a source with knowledge on the matter told FMT. “Without commissioners, it can’t really function. Even last term, the appointment of the commissioners was delayed by two months,” the source said.
“The committee’s vetting and decision must be made public for greater transparency, as must the selection criteria. The commissioners must have the competency and experience,” the source said.
