The Industrial Court of Malaysia ordered Maxis Broadband Sdn Bhd to pay RM703,664 to former project manager specialist Ng Keng Seng for unfair dismissal. Chairman Mohammad Zulbahrin Zainuddin found that Ng was terminated without a warning or a show cause letter, despite having a clean record and no prior disciplinary actions.

The court noted that Maxis failed to clarify the reasons behind Ng’s low performance evaluations. The decision, based on Section 30(5) of the Industrial Relations Act 1967, included 24 months of back wages and compensation in lieu of reinstatement. Ng was represented by lawyer Patrick Tan Yan Hong.
