If he is able to locate his Malaysian father, it will be hard as there will be more hurdles such as illegitimacy act and others.
The high court has decided but Govt decided to appeal against it, same as the one below.
https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/202...affling/2008328Not all cases are considered as a security threat where illegals trying to gain citizenship.
Those in the news, they apply through the proper channels article 15A(below 21 years old), most are genuine. eg: improper documentation due to ignorance, late marriage registration to a foreign wife where the oldest child is stateless but the others are malaysians, born out of wedlock where the mother is not a Malaysian but taken care by the Malaysian father, mothers married to foreigners who want their kids to be malaysians & kids/babies abandoned without documents that are being adopted by Malaysian families.
The blame game will always go to the parents or the adoptive parents, but never considered the humanitarian side of the child growing up stateless even though going to Malaysia schools and live the Malaysian way of life.
The home minister or KDN should not view, people like Wong and others who apply via 15A as security threat but more on humanitarian grounds and how they can contribute to Malaysia in the future. Then this type of court cases will not happen.
The below, case took him 19 years to become a citizen of Malaysia.
