Selama 54 Tahun Merdeka Perlembagaan Persekutuan telah di amend lebih dari 45 kali. Prof Shad Saleem Faruqi berpendapat "the true number of individual amendment is around 650." Perlembagaan Persekutuan telah diamend lebih banyak daripada jumlah amendment US Constitution.
To me, i dont think this should happen. the reid commision had drafted this constitution by doing research and inquiry to provide the protection to all citizens against the government, and to provide the executive and legislative power to the government. and it is sad to know that the government amended so many articles in FC according to their own discretion and what they think good for the citizen without gather infos from citizens, without gather the actual fact about what the citizens need. And sometimes, the government amend the constitution to protect themselves and to have more power, for example the amendment of Art 66.
Kenapa tidak kerajaan sebelum amend perlembagaan tubuhkan jawatankuasa khas untuk menjalankan inquiry, jalankan kajian, bertanyakan penduduk dan selepas itu dibentangkan di parlimen. mungkin makan masa yang lebih tapi tidak wajar jika melebihi 5 bulan kerana untuk menyiapkan Perlembagaan yg lengkap hanya 5 bulan, secara logiknya jika amend 1 atau 2 article mestilah tidak mengambil masa yang lebih lama.
