Prerogatif Diraja Di Sabah: Suatu Analisis Kritikal

Asrul Jamal, Haniff Ahamat, Nizamuddin Alias

Abstract


Kajian ini membentangkan analisis kritikal tentang prerogatif diraja di Sabah dalam kerangka lebih luas Raja Berperlembagaan Malaysia, dengan pendekatan perbandingan terhadap sistem pemerintahan negeri-negeri Melayu. Masalah utama ialah keterbatasan prerogatif serta sifatnya yang lebih bersifat pentadbiran dan simbolik bagi Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sabah (TYT), berbanding Raja-Raja Melayu yang mempunyai peranan lebih meluas dalam hal agama dan adat. Objektif utama kajian ini adalah untuk memperjelas perkembangan sejarah, peruntukan perlembagaan dan implikasi sistem TYT terhadap perpaduan sosial dan kestabilan politik di Sabah dan Malaysia. Metodologi kajian menggunakan analisis dokumen Perlembagaan Negeri Sabah dan Persekutuan, selain perbandingan literatur serta rujukan kes undang-undang utama. Dapatan kajian mendapati bahawa perbezaan latar sejarah dan institusi menyebabkan ruang prerogatif TYT lebih terhad, tertakluk kepada nasihat Kabinet Negeri, berbanding Raja Melayu yang bebas menentukan hal-ehwal agama Islam serta adat. Ringkasan perbincangan menekankan keperluan memperkukuh mekanisme pengawasan, pendidikan sivik, serta penjelasan batas kuasa prerogatif dalam konteks pentadbiran negeri agar selaras dengan prinsip demokrasi berparlimen. Kesimpulan kajian menggesa harmonisasi peruntukan kuasa antara Sabah dan negeri-negeri Melayu, serta peranan lebih aktif mahkamah dalam memantau pelaksanaan prerogatif bagi melindungi hak asasi rakyat. Signifikan kajian terletak pada cadangan penambahbaikan undang-undang serta model agensi pentadbiran yang adaptif, selari dengan amalan federalisme moden. Sumbangan khusus kepada sumbangan antarabangsa ialah pemahaman baharu mengenai dinamik institusi beraja dalam negara majmuk dan sistem federalisme, yang boleh menjadi rujukan dalam kajian undang-undang perlembagaan perbandingan serta pengurusan autonomi wilayah secara responsif dan demokratik.
