GDB gets court enforcement on RM83 mil adjudication award involving 8 Conlay project payments
The adjudication decision was secured earlier in February this year and comprised RM76.
The adjudication decision was secured earlier in February this year and comprised RM76.
“As a result of the above decision, the adjudication decision has been enforced by virtue of Section 28 of the Construction Industry Payment and Adjudication Act 2012 as if it is a judgement or order of the High Court.
The sum comprises RM76.
This was, however, just a little over half of the RM102.
This was after the court granted the pair (DCSB and KSK Land) and their parent KSK Group Bhd, another restraining order against their creditors.
“The much-considered decision to appoint CCSB as 8 Conlay’s new main contractor was made looking towards the future, and at our commitment to complete the project in the shortest time possible without compromising on quality,” said Joanne Kua, CEO of KSK Group and managing director of KSK Land.
Judicial Commissioner Liza Chan Sow Keng granted the inter-partes (both parties) interim injunction.
The arbitration notice was filed in response to GDBSB’s notice of demand amounting to RM102.
According to a press statement, the contract between DCSB and GDBSB was terminated due to a failure to achieve agreeable solutions to various disputes relating to construction site matters over a period of the last nine months.
