Luqman's musings

                                                             In a recent Jesselton Times report , Ramli Amir urged Malaysia to adopt a corporate manslaughter law similar to the UK’s to hold companies accountable for fatal negligence. Ramli criticized Malaysia’s current legal framework, which lacks a specific offense for corporate manslaughter, making it challenging to prosecute companies. He explained: “The law requires proof that a ‘controlling mind,’ such as a director, was personally responsible, which is often difficult to establish. This gap leaves victims’ families without justice and allows companies to escape accountability for gross management failures leading to deaths.”
