The prime minister says letters written in other languages, including English, will be returned.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said there has been a ‘ deviation’ from the constitutional commitment to uphold Malay as the national language.

“Of course, we agree with the use of English as the international trade language, but there is an attitude that I feel has gone too far in some places like government offices, and even more so in private universities as well as other sectors,” he said when officiating a national language and reading carnival here today.

Article 152 of the Federal Constitution states that Malay cannot be disputed on its functions and its role as the national language.Anwar instructed government agencies to return correspondence written in a language other than Malay.
