A Malaysian trans woman has lost her court case to legally change her sex.

Ashraf Hafiz Abdul Aziz, 26, had sex reassignment surgery in 2008 in Thailand and hoped to obtain an identity card declaring she is female, AP reports.

However, while the country allows sex reassignment surgery, trans men and women cannot be legally recognised and the high court ruled that her surgery had merely changed her genitals, rather than her sex.
