Huawei Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd v Maxbury Communications Sdn Bhd

The Court of Appeal heard an appeal regarding the setting aside of an arbitration award between Huawei Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd and Maxbury Communications Sdn Bhd. The dispute arose from a Purchase Agreement and subsequent Settlement Agreement regarding payment for additional OLTs. The High Court had set aside the arbitration award under Section 37 of the Arbitration Act 2005. The Court of Appeal reversed this decision, finding that the arbitrator had not exceeded his jurisdiction and that the High Court had improperly reviewed the merits of the case. The appeal was allowed with costs.
