Malaysia seeks The Hague court to dismiss Sulu claimants' bid to enforce final award of US$14.9bil

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia has submitted its defence that the Sulu claimants’ application for the recognition and enforcement of a purported arbitral award of US$14.9bil (RM62.59bil) issued against Malaysia in February 2022 is null and void.

The Sulu Secretariat in a statement said therefore, the claimants’ request was inadmissible and must, in any case, be denied.
