More about the book
Focusing on Malaysia's transition from English to Malay in the legal system, this book examines the implications of such a language shift on access to justice for citizens with limited proficiency in English. Through comprehensive analysis, including interviews and observations, it explores the complexities involved in changing legal language, the impact of societal bilingualism on justice, and poses critical questions for language planners regarding the broader changes that may accompany a shift in legal language.
