Subject of the Ruler by Naturalisation
8 [1]

The Ruler may, if application therefor is made to him in the prescribed manner by any person who is not a subject of the Ruler and who is of full capacity, grant to such person a certificate of naturalisation if he satisfies the Ruler that he:

(a) has within the preceding twelve years resided in the Federation of Malaya for periods amounting in the aggregate to not less that ten years; and

(b) has resided in the State throughout the two years immediately preceding the date of his application; and

(c) is of good character; and

(d) is not likely to become chargeable to the State or the Federation of Malaya; and

(e) is able to speak the Malay or English language with reasonable proficiency or if he is unable to do so that such inability is due to the physical impediment of deafness or dumbness; and

(f) has made a declaration that he intends, in the event of a certificate being granted to him, to settle permanently in the Federation of Malaya.

8 [2]

In calculating the period of twelve years mentioned in sub-section (1) of this section no account shall be taken of –

(a) periods of absence from the Federation of Malaya –

(i) for purposes of education of such kind in such countries and during such periods, as may from time to time, be either generally or specially approved by the Ruler, after consultation with the High Commissioner for the purposes of this section; or

(ii) while on duty in the service of the Government of the Federation of Malaya or of any State or Settlement or of any of the territories now compromised in the Federation of Malaya or of the Colony of Singapore or while on duty in the service of the Crown, where such periods are not consistent with essential continuity of residence and therefore not reckoned as periods of residence;

(b) periods of absence from the Federation of Malaya between 1st July, 1941, and the 31st December, 1946, in the case of a person who was resident in the Federation of Malaya for a period of five years immediately preceding such period of absence.
