ABS Solution (S) Pte Ltd v. Lim Teck Hoe & Ee Kai Xin

In the High Court of Malaya at Kuala Lumpur, the Defendants sought security for costs of RM 200,000 against the Plaintiff, ABS Solution (S) Pte Ltd, a Singapore-based company, citing its foreign status and lack of assets in Malaysia. The Plaintiff opposed, arguing the application was oppressive and that they had a good prospect of success in their fraud claim. The Court dismissed the application, finding no sufficient risk of the Defendants being unable to recover costs and noting the potential to stifle the Plaintiff's genuine claim.
