Masterskill (M) Sdn Bhd v XXX

Today, i had a case at a so-called "Labour Court". It is not really a court: it is a labour office with the task of solving the disputes between the plaintiff (otherwise "the dobber") and the defendant (the employee).

The case goes something like this: i resigned, but i did not gave sufficient notice and therefore, i have literally (or ignorantly) breach the terms in my contract. i know i was at fault: there's no mistake about that. i was wrong, and even if i were to argue before a court of law, i will lose. the reason being is very simple: i have breach a contract of which i have duly signed and thus, failure to comply with the terms as per stipulated in the contract will result in the institution of legal action against me...hu hu, so sad.

Here's the decision of the so-called "Labour Court".

For your information, this "Labour Court" was set up under Section 70 of the Employement Act 1955 with the aims of solving any forms of disputes between the employer and the employee on any issue.

So folks, beware before you sign any forms of contract: because, once signed, you are liable for your own action.

Now, i have to fork out some 2-grand in order to pay to my former employer who, in my eyes, brings no benefits but unimaginable catastrophe!

Silly me!
