Catchwords

The Court of Appeal held that the loan agreement between Ace Credit (M) Sdn Bhd and Pioneer Conglomerate Sdn Bhd was void under section 10P of the Moneylenders Act 1951 for non-compliance with the prescribed form and excessive interest. All related security documents and caveats were likewise invalid. However, applying section 66 of the Contracts Act 1950, the Court ordered restitution of monies advanced, as the transaction was void but not substantively illegal. The High Court’s decision was affirmed with slight variation and no order as to costs.
