Key features
Over the years following the enactment of the National Language Acts 1963/67, a vast body of legal terminology in Malay has come into common use in the courts of Malaysia. Further to that, the rapid development of Islamic banking and finance and Syariah Law has seen the generous application of Arabic terms in legal writing and documents.
In this new edition of Istilah Undang-undang, new terms or phrases in Malay and English have been added, ensuring that this book remains an indispensable tool for legal practitioners, judges, academicians, students and court officials. Many of the new terms and phrases have been collated from new legislation which reflect the current use of legal terminology. The accurate translation of legal terms from English to Malay and vice versa, and the understanding of Arabic terms especially those used in the fields of Islamic banking and finance, family law and criminal procedure become more convenient and easier with the support of this index.
In this edition, terms commonly used in taxation and revenue law have been added to widen the scope of coverage of this index.
Since the publication of the previous edition eight years ago, ongoing editorial input has been invested to meticulously revise or update translations where necessary in accordance with usage in authoritative legal sources. The separate section on Arabic terms makes available the translation or meaning in English.

“This handbook is an essential guide to any foreign investor navigating the rapidly changing economies of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states. It explains in clear terms the complex legal, cultural, and social frameworks of the GCC states, whose economies are governed increasingly by law and regulation, rather than custom and tradition. I strongly commend this book to all with an interest in investing productively in the Middle East’s most significant economies.”
– Sir John Jenkins Middle East Joint Strand Leader, University of Cambridge Centre for Geopolitics Ambassador of the United Kingdom to Syria, Iraq, Libya, and Saudi Arabia (2006–2015)

The GCC states — Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates — have become centers of gravity for foreign investment in recent years. While promoting economic transformation and diversification, the GCC states have embarked on a range of projects in the infrastructure, transportation, urban planning and renewable energy sectors, backed by funding from extensive reserves of natural resources.
While opportunities for investment in the GCC region abound, navigating the regulatory framework governing investment can be riddled with uncertainty and risk. These challenges highlight the need for a clear guide that walks foreign investors and their legal counsel through the GCC’s regulatory landscape.
The present volume fulfils this need. It is an authoritative handbook that expounds the legislative framework for foreign investment in the GCC states, while illustrating how Islamic law interacts with legislation. This vade mecum covers bilateral and multilateral investment treaties, international arbitration, trade and investment framework agreements, regional dispute settlement tribunals and legislation governing business organizations, agencies, capital markets, government procurement and taxation, while highlighting emerging topics in foreign investment, including environmental law, sanctions, labor rights, renewable energy and human rights.

Taxation is an important consideration on the business landscape. A good knowledge of tax regulations and requirements and proper compliance with them can safeguard the tax exposure of businesses. Malaysian taxation is multi-faceted, involving many different types of taxes whether direct or indirect in nature.
Finance managers, accountants and anyone else responsible for the tax affairs of a business need to keep abreast with the ever-changing requirements of tax laws and the practice of the Inland Revenue Board (IRB). Tracking the decisions of the Special Commissioners of Income Tax, the Customs Appeal Tribunal and the courts surely provides a good focus on the resolution of tax disputes and the lessons therefrom.
This book surveys recent significant decisions on matters like income tax, stamp duty, real property gains tax (RPGT), customs and excise duties, sales and service tax, and anti-dumping duty as well as the active use of judicial review to challenge the actions and decisions of the IRB. In addition to a useful overview of the taxation system in Malaysia, the book presents 22 insightful articles which discuss and critically analyse the carefully curated court cases. These analyses provide a comprehensive understanding of the current tax issues and the evolving tax landscape in Malaysia.
Spotlight on Malaysian Tax Disputes provides valuable and instructive knowledge on notable tax disputes which have been litigated and decided in recent years.
