Event Description
- Full Description:
- Presented by the TC Beirne School of Law, Research Seminar Series and the Centre for Public, International and Comparative Law.
Speaker:Professor Hoong Phun (‘HP’) Lee - Monash University
This seminar provides an account of the “Islamisation’ phenomenon in Malaysia, a nation governed by a secular constitution. The harnessing of the Islamic religion as a strategy for galvanising political support from the Malay community in Malaysia has serious ramifications for the maintenance of national harmony and the state of constitutionalism. The seminar canvasses some of the problems engendered by this phenomenon.
