The government's response organization 'launched' Ministry of Justice, State Affairs Office, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Home Affairs, Ministry of Homeland, Jeju Island, 'International Investment Dispute Response Team' 2019-07-26 By Lee Seung-rock Recreation Recreation
Malaysian nationals have submitted a letter of intent to arbitrate the International Investment Dispute Settlement (ISDS) against the Government of the Republic of Korea regarding the Jeju Yeorae Recreational Residential Complex project. We decided to correspond.
Berjaya Land Berhad submitted a Notice of Intent to the Government of the Republic of Korea on the 17th under the Agreement on the Promotion and Protection of Korea-Malaysia Investment (BIT).
The Notice of Arbitration is a written notice by the claimant stating that he or she intends to file the arbitration.
In an arbitration intention, Berjaya agreed on the 'BIT on the Promotion and Protection of Korea-Malaysia Investment,' including the Jeju Free International City Development Center (JDC) and the Korean court unfairly treating Berjaya. Allegedly violated its investor protection obligations.
Berjaya said in a statement of arbitration that the company has suffered at least about KRW4.4 trillion (direct loss of about KRW300 billion and loss of about KRW4.1 trillion).
Berjaya was not informed in the arbitration intent of the lawsuit concerning the legality of the disposal of land to be offered by the Jeju Free International City Development Center at the time of the joint venture agreement in April 2008. The court alleged that it was damaged due to the inability to proceed with the business due to the Supreme Court's decision to cancel the acceptance settlement.
When formal mediations are filed, things get complicated. If the dispute is not resolved, the case shall be referred to arbitration. Regardless of the ongoing lawsuit, it is possible and our government cannot refuse it.
Arbitral awards are limited to the financial loss of the investor, the applicable interest and recovery of property. Once the arbitral award is concluded, it has its own strength. The petition itself is impossible, so it is impossible.
The government plans to actively respond by forming a joint response system by forming the 'International Investment Dispute Response Team (Director of the Ministry of Justice), which includes the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, and Jeju Island. .
The arbitration proceedings and disputes will be undertaken by the Ministry of Justice's International Legal Affairs Department, the General Affairs Division will be in charge of the BIT, and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport will be in charge of the Jeju Island Development Project.
Yerae Recreational Residential Complex Project is a large-scale tourism development complex where Berjaya Jeju Resort invests 2.5 trillion won from 2008 to 2017 on the 74,1193㎡ site of Yerae-dong, Seogwipo-si.
The Supreme Court hit a turning point in March 2015, judging the JDC's land acceptance decision on the business site. The business ran into a wall when the court interpreted the defect as clear until the disposal of the business.
Among the 9 phases of the project, from March 2013, the construction of the 149 households of Gotjawal Village with a total area of 39,9448㎡ on the business site was completed.
When the issue of land acceptance and the licensing process arose, Berjaya filed a lawsuit against the JDC on November 6, 2015, demanding an astronomical compensation of 350 billion won.
Thank for your reply. May I know if the news reported to the link I included in the last email has merits? The details seem differ from what was presented in the quarterly reports. I notice the news when visiting an investment portal. Quite frankly, I was shocked initially and sincerely hope BJCorp can clarify if the news is valid.
Best regards,

Thank you for your email.
The Jeju Lawsuit brought against JDC has not been concluded yet. As mentioned earlier, the Court has postponed the delivery of judgement to 6 February 2020. Again, Berjaya Land Berhad, being a public listed company, would have made an announcement, if the Jeju Lawsuit had been concluded.
Lack of clarity, BJCorp buying ONLY Penta's stake, but nobody else, NO dividend despite ability to add over RM 200 million asset after disposing over RM 200 million worth of hotel.
SC and BURSA are also part of the problem for not defending minorities by allowing the Penta's deal to go through without a similar deal extended to minorities...
They want your shares as cheap as possible. Uncle, aunties, brother,sister,taukey ah! Please let go your shares , otherwise you will see more bottom ohhh lohh. This is the press down call lohhh.
Use restructure as e excuse loh, bjcorp,bjland & bjland all reach overvalued by shares volumes reach 5000 millions shares, heavy like elephants. Then, can find which listed company easier do the same, followed by market price drops to penny's stocks seem no demand due to profit less and directions gone.
Hahahaha...push further down to 0.18 cents. One of the worst properties market performer ! Purchased foreign hotels and resorts internationally but still remained as one of the most lousy counter in Bursa.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
