Hi,can i know the Sunrise Sdn Bhd v First Profile the doctrine of separate legal
entity and the extent of application in Malaysian company law.
Can give me some idea?August 31, 2020 at 9:23 pm #582920Hi Janeline,
Im not entirely sure what you mean by your question but Im assuming you would like to understand what is meant by the concept that a company is regarded as a separate legal entity. This concept was essentially clarified in the case of Salomon v Salomon so that would be where I suggest you look first. To that end I would highly recommend you watch the recorded lecture on this topic as I am confident this will further clarify the concept.
If after watching the recording you have a specific question regarding this topic, please do not hesitate to ask 🙂
Kind regards,
Vijay

September 2, 2020 at 9:53 pm #583177Hi Janeline,
Chapter 10 deals with the concept of the Company being a separate legal entity. The recording on this topic is entitled Trading Certificates and Lifting the veil and at about 7 minutes into the recording. You will see our tutor talking through what is meant by Separate Legal Entity and refer to Salomon v Salomon. Please note that for the exam you are not required to know the facts of cases.
I hope that helps?
Kind regards,
Vijay
