The position of Malay language in Malaysia is provided by the Malaysian Federal Constitution. Due to the fact that the Malay Language has been sidelined during the colonial era, it took some time for the language to be put in its rightful position. The presence of various ethnicities who try to preserve their language; as well as the reluctance of the political elites in affirming the status of Malay language throws doubt to its future. Constitutional provisions and several laws relating to national language shall be examined to see whether the policies formulated have been in tandem with current laws. The paper concludes that the government should preserve the status quo as well as giving the national literary agency (Dewan Bahasa & Pustaka) enforcement powers in promoting the use of the national language.
Kedudukan bahasa Melayu di Malaysia telah dinyatakan dengan jelas di dalam Perlembagaan
Persekutuan. Oleh kerana bahasa Melayu telah dipinggirkan dalam zaman penjajahan, masa diperlukan
bagi meletakkannya di tempat yang sewajarnya. Kewujudan pelbagai etnik yang cuba mengekalkan bahasa
mereka ditambah pula dengan sikap elit politik Melayu yang tidak bersungguh-sungguh mendaulatkan
status Bahasa Melayu boleh mengakibatkan masa depan bahasa ini menjadi kabur. Peruntukan-peruntukan
dalam Perlembagaan dan beberapa undang-undang mengenai bahasa kebangsaan akan diteliti bagi
memastikan sama ada polisi-polisi yang dibentuk selaras dengan undang-undang sedia ada. Kajian ini
menyimpulkan bahawa kerajaan sepatutnya mengekalkan status quo bahasa Melayu dan memberikan
kuasa penguatkuasaan kepada Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka dalam menggalakkan penggunaan bahasa
kebangsaan. |
