Malaysia court rules in favour of Wynn Macau in RM17mil case, says lawyer


KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters): A Malaysian judge on Friday (Jan 18) ruled in favour of Wynn Macau in a case against a fund manager who owed the casino millions of dollars, the company's lawyer said, the first time a casino has been allowed to recover dues in the country.

Wagering or gaming contracts are not recognised in Malaysia, which means casinos do not have legal recourse for the gambling dues owed to them by its clients.
