Malaysian Principal Legislation

This module consists of all Federal Numbered Acts from Act 1 to present day. There are over 800 such Acts. Any new Acts are uploaded on-line as soon as they become available. All legislation are consolidated - i.e. amendments are incorporated into the Acts soon after they are in force. Changes are noted in the Principal Acts. In 2013 we began working on versioning selected acts so that subscribers are able to view the act as it was at a specified date.

Malaysian Subsidiary Legislation

This module consists of selected Rules and Regulations from the PU series dating from 1966, PUAs from 1946 and PUBs from 1972 onward. Amendments to subsidiary legislation are also available. CLJ will include additional Rules and Regulations as they become available in future.

Any proclamation, rule, regulation, order, notification, by-law or other instrument made under any Act, Enactment, Ordinance or other lawful authority and having legislative effect.

Subsidiary legislation are mainly published in two parts:

  (a) Legislative Supplement A which is known as PU(A); and

  (b) Legislative Supplement B which is known as PU(B).

The word "PU" stands for Pemberitahuan Undang-Undang [generally translated to mean "Legal Notification"].
