反对声浪下 马政府不签署《消除一切形式种族歧视公约》

相信是在部分穆斯林群体的反对声浪下,马来西亚政府决定不签署《消除一切形式种族歧视公约》(ICERD)。

马国首相办公室发文告证实此事,同时表明会“继续捍卫联邦宪法,即其中在建国由各族群一同订立的社会契约。”

马国政府原有意签署ICERD公约,但却遭来国内穆斯林社会、甚至部分政府代表表达反对立场,担忧签署了ICERD,联邦宪法中第153条文,有关马来人与土著的特权、伊斯兰的神圣性将受侵蚀。

为了反对政府签署上述公约,马国两大最大马来族群政党,巫统和伊斯兰党(PAS),恫言在下月举办反ICERD大集会。

伊党主席哈迪阿旺甚至形容,ICERD公约其实是“共济会的阴谋”,企图破坏马国宗教和种族和谐。

哈迪阿旺指出,美国是最鼓吹ICERD的观念,但该国已经忘记了屠杀及压迫红印地安土著的歷史。

他认为,既然马国联邦宪法已明文规定,不得歧视非穆斯林,所以马国并不需要ICERD。

包括马国,全球十四国家未签署ICERD

ICERD是在反犹太主义事件和反对南非种族隔离制度情况下诞生。

联合国于1960年12月,通过谴责违反联合国宪章和世界人权宣言的种族、宗教及民族仇恨的行迳,随后在1963年11月20日的联合国大会接纳ICERD的草案。

ICERD的核心条款为第一条款,有关条款主要是种族歧视的定义为“基于种族、肤色、世系或民族或人种的任何区别、排斥、限制或优惠,其目的或效果为取消或损害政治、经济、社会、文化或公共生活任何在承认、享受或行使其他方面人权及基本自由的平等地位。

目前,全球有175国已签署上述联合国公约,马来西亚是世界上15个未签署ICERD的国家之一,与朝鲜、缅甸及汶莱齐名。

至于马国民主行动党伊斯干达公主城国会议员林吉祥则指出,全球有50个穆斯林人口占多数国家,有48国已签署ICERD。

他质问伊斯兰合作组织(OIC)57个成员国,有55国都已签署,仅马国和汶莱还未。
