GEORGE TOWN: A High Court here has allowed for a judicial review of a minister’s order allowing companies to repay their debts in six months as a result of the movement control order (MCO) compared to 21 days, saying there is a prima facie case against the Malaysian government.

Justice Datuk Rosilah Yop granted the application to Wabina Constructions and Engineering Sdn Bhd, which is seeking to challenge the order granting a six-month extension for companies to settle their debts.

Wabina obtained an adjudication award of more than RM7mil against a company known as Seal Properties Sdn Bhd in February this year. According to Wabina’s counsel, Ong Yu Shin, among the grounds of review being relied on by Wabina was the fact that Alexander acted unreasonably and in excess of his powers by changing substantive laws in the Companies Act without going through Parliament.This was in contravention of the Federal Constitution, and is thus illegal.
