    Hello,

    I saw your blog recently about the above issue and right now I have an issue similar to it whereby my tenant has not been paying the rent for 3 months. I have tried to contact my tenant but so far she is not answering the calls. When I SMS him, I only get answers occasionally when she feels like it with a lot of excuses. I have given her a month notice to move out through text message from my phone. she has agreed to move out in a months time also through the text message. However, I am not very sure if they are going to move out though. In fact, the tenant has not been in the house for already 3 months and she has actually gone back to east coast.
    In this scenario, can I take action with Distress Proceedings or Eviction Summons is better?

    Hope you can help me on this matter.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Thank you for your email.
    1. Distress proceeding does not terminate the tenancy itself, it’s only operate to recover the overdue rent while the tenancy is still continuing.
    2. In your situation, i would better (cheaper and time saving) to proceed straight away with eviction order.

    Hi,
    I'm a malaysian with a property register under my name. Due to family reasons, I'm considering to convert to Singapore citizenship. Assuming the application is successful,
    1) Will I experience more difficulties in selling the house later as my citizenship status changes?
    2) Will I incur higher transaction costs (higher tax, legal costs, etc) due to citizen status changes?

    Dear Kamarul,

    Good day. Currently I join a programme which is electrical engineer development programme offered by a company. In this programme I will be trained by company in one year and company will pay me allowance RM 2.5k only every month.In the offer letter mentioned that after one year that I completed the training programme, the company may consider me for employment and start bond 8 years and after I sign the contract. The company inform me that the training programme should be 4 years and after 4 years only start bond 8 years total 12 years but if I breach the contract I need to pay RM 64k which mentioned in the contract. Then regarding to my personal reason, I just join this programme for 5 months only and not consider as a staff for the company and I quit the programme, the training coordinator told me that I just need to pay the fee for the training course that i have been attend only. Besides that, I not allow to keep the copy of the contract. Another day, the company give me letter want me to pay RM 64k but regarding to training executive the total fee for the training course that I have been attend not more than RM 2k. Do you think the contract still valid becuase I not allow to keep the copy of the contract and what the training coordinator told me is not true. As a result I need to pay total amount RM64k.
    I feel that I have been cheated by the company.


    Regards,
    Vincent

    dear mito, parties are bound to their contract. thus, what found in the contract will bind parties. look at clauses incorporated in that contract properly before you can refuse to do so. however, normally tenancy agreement renewal is not mandatory and it is up to the management to accept or not unless there is promises made between parties that tenancy will continue for some period.

Small Claim Court: Do-It-Yourself (DIY)

-
Salam, Last post I have explained on how simple it would be to claim ' dishonored ' cheque from the drawer in court. And now, in this post I am going to show you another simple claim that everybody can do by themselves. It is normally called 'Small Claim Procedure'. So make it easier to understand, let me put it in point form. What is 'small claim procedure'? Small Claim Procedure is where an individual (not agent or company or person holding power attorney or etc) wants to claim from someone else (debt) using court procedure, i.e. suing in court of law. The total amount of claim must not exceeding RM5, 000-00 The claim must be made through summons in Magistrate Court No lawyer can get involve in this small claim proceeding … (that's bad for me…hehehe), everything is done by the plaintiff himself (person who is suing) with the guidance of court (staff). To illustrate, if B owes A RM 5, 000-00 and B refuses to pay, A can sue B in Magistrate court under this ...

Hire Purchase: Car Repossessed?

Salam, I have one assignment yesterday regarding one poor chap's car repossessed by his financier. His case is straight forward but one that typical type of problem, the brief is simple:- This guy has a car which is still under hire purchase He defaulted for more than 3 months which gave the bank rights to repossess his car under the Hire Purchase Act, and the bank did. The car was kept at one store somewhere in Penang for 2 months pending auction. He however managed to settle his overdue installments (after getting some soft loan from friends) and wanted to bring out his car. Too bad, somehow when he tried to get back his car from the store, he noticed that some (quite substantial) 'things' and parts of his car is no longer intact. He did a complaint to his bank and then lodged a police report. The police due some reasons (God knows why) asked his just to refer back to the bank and had done nothing till date, in fact he was advised by the police to settle the matter direc...
