Society calls for special law to address disputes during MCO

KOTA KINABALU: There should be a law to address legal issues that are likely to arise from breach of contract during the current movement control order (MCO), says Sabah Law Society (SLS).

“Although litigation is ordinarily commonplace in any healthy economy, the SLS is of the view that at this critical juncture, the time and resources spent in resolving such disputes would be better invested in rebuilding the nation’s economy rather than potential protracted litigation,” said society president Roger Chin.
