Grammar Error in Passport?
I was in Kuching airport waiting for my flight when I got bored and perused my passport for absolutely no reason.
One sentence caught my attention "7. A Malaysian citizen who has become or holding any foreign citizenship could be revoked of his/her Malaysian citizenship."
Now, I'm not an expert in English and I have not really studied or used English for quite a while, but if I'm not mistaken, I do not think the word 'holding' is the right tense, and I think there's a missing article.
It's a complex sentence meaning it can be broken down into two simple sentences, which are: "A Malaysian citizen who has become foreign citizenship....", an "a" should be inserted become "foreign citizenship", shouldn't it?
And "A Malaysian citizen who holding any foreign citizenship...", I sincerely doubt "holding" is the appropriate word.
Any thoughts?
