malaysia dont make it bad

Recently my niece in Hong Kong enquired about giving birth there and her child citizenship status. She is married to a British. So she went to make inquiries about it. She was told she has to give birth in the country for her child to enjoy her citizenship status. The High Commisioner's staff didnt give a good advice with regards to citizenship. The law had amended that a mother can concur her citizenship status to her child like the father of his birth. After much running around, she decided to register her child as a British subject and enjoy the PR status in Hong Kong. Now she says forget about obtaining citizenship for her child. I guess she will be staying in Hong Kong for a long time. Infact she went to study and live for over 2o years out of Malaysia in Hong Kong and UK. With this running around, I believe she won't come back to stay though she will, I believe, retain her Malaysian citizenship. Moreover she has a very good pay and year end bonuses working in a well known bank in the world which has a branch here in KL.
