The Territorial Sea Act 2012 (Act 750) remains valid and applicable throughout Malaysia, including in Terengganu, despite the Terengganu legislative assembly’s decision to reject its use, unless declared otherwise by the court, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said.

In a statement today, the PMO asserted that it was the federal government’s position that Parliament had lawfully enacted and passed Act 750 under the Federal Constitution.
