Malaysia is nominally a constitutional monarchy as it has an elected king and federal separation powers between an independent executive, judicial and bicameral legislative branch. Reoccurring issues that have weakened Malaysian rule of law in practice center on endemic corruption, lack of transparency and equality questions for non-Muslims Malaysians.

∙ 14y agoThe laws of Malaysia can be divided into two types of laws—written law and unwritten law. Written laws are laws which have been enacted in the constitution or in legislations. Unwritten laws are laws which are not contained in any statutes and can be found in case decisions. This is known as the common law or case law. In situations where there is no law governing a particular circumstance, Malaysian case law may apply. If there is no Malaysian case law, English case law can be applied. There are instances where Australian, Indian, and Singaporean cases are used as persuasive authorities. Source; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Malaysia
