沙捞越在马来西亚联邦法院质疑联邦石油法, 引述对近海资源的宪法权利。 Sarawak challenges federal petroleum laws in Malaysia’s Federal Court, citing constitutional rights to offshore resources.

沙捞越向马来西亚联邦法院递交请愿书,质疑三项联邦石油法的合宪性,认为这些法律侵犯了马来西亚根据1963年《马来西亚协定》和《联邦宪法》对近海石油和天然气资源的主权权利。 Sarawak has filed a petition in Malaysia’s Federal Court challenging the constitutionality of three federal petroleum laws, arguing they infringe on the state’s sovereign rights to offshore oil and gas resources under the Malaysia Agreement 1963 and the Federal Constitution. 国家辩称,最初针对马来亚的法律在1969年的紧急状态期间被延长,后来被取消,英国在马来西亚日转移了它对海底资源的立法权力。 The state contends the laws, originally for Malaya, were extended during a 1969 emergency later annulled, and that its legislative authority over seabed resources was transferred by the British on Malaysia Day. 由于Petronas寻求对州法规进行司法审查,促使沙捞越对联邦法院的裁决主张其宪法权利,因此产生了争端。 The dispute arises as Petronas seeks judicial review of state regulations, prompting Sarawak to assert its constitutional right to a Federal Court ruling. 法院将于3月16日听取Petronas的申请。 The court will hear Petronas’s application on March 16.
