| Summary: | The purpose of this paper is to make a modest attempt to present the difficulty in determining whether one is a Malay or not if the definition of Article 160 (2) is to be the test. The difficulty may arise in the granting of the special privileges of the Malays.

The 1 Malays 1 discussed in this paper is confined to the Malays in Peninsula Malaysia only so as to keep the project paper from covering too wide an area. |
