“Resolving Maritime Claims Effectively’ was held between October 25 and October 26, 2016 organised by Legal Plus Sdn Bhd in collaboration with IMSML.

In case you were not present, we had experienced and influential speakers lined up for the event including Malaysia’s Minister of Transport, a former judge of the Court of Appeal, several top lawyers operating in different areas of maritime and a good number of participants who came totally prepared to absorb every information that was disseminated at the conference. To say the least, it was mind blowing! All the speakers were at their best and as organizers, we are convinced that this conference will be a major reference point for a long time to come.

Like other past events, ‘Resolving Maritime Claims Effectively’ was put together to address an obvious challenge in our maritime industry. As evident in the caliber of speakers lined up for the event, our aim was not only to bridge whatever knowledge gap existed vis-à-vis the subject matter, we also sought to use the occasion of the conference to enrich our individual professional experiences. Thankfully, all of these and more were achieved at the conference.

Unfortunately if you missed it, you have missed something very germane. As we had advised from the onset, this was not a conference to be missed. From all the feedbacks that we got, it was evident that participants’ expectations were met and were also exceeded. The conference was not only very educative, it provided new insights for everyone to look at the issue of claims, arising from maritime disputes, from another perspective.

Although the event has come and gone, the memories will linger for a long time in our minds.

We wish to use this medium to thank our speakers, sponsors, participants and everyone who was present at the event for their commitment and dedication to learning, and for their devotion to our maritime industry.
