Malaysia’s people come from a mosaic of different cultures and while it is today one nation, different personal and land laws apply to persons domiciled in East Malaysia (part of the island of Borneo and comprising the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak) and West or Peninsular Malaysia (which includes the Federal Territory of Labuan). In this seminar, we examine the inheritance and probate laws that apply to the people of Sabah, Sarawak and Peninsular Malaysia who have assets in each other’s states and consider the importance of establishing the right wills and trusts for proper estate and succession planning.
