Abstract
The concept of constitutional supremacy is provided by Article 4 (1) and 162(6) of the Malaysian Federal Constitution. It differs from the doctrine of supremacy of Parliament as practiced in English jurisprudence. The objective of this paper is to study the concept of constitutional supremacy, why it has become very important and the dangers that it poses if there is an erosion of the concept. The study is based on doctrinal research as it is primarily concerned with the review of the provisions of the Constitution and reported cases that have been decided by the courts. It is suggested that it was possible for Parliament to amend the Constitution to a point where it basically may defect the concept of constitutional supremacy in Malaysia.
