PUTRAJAYA: Sixteen former Umno members failed in their appeal in the Federal Court to obtain leave to commence their challenge to dissolve the political party (Umno) for not holding party elections within the prescribed time.
A five-member bench led by Chief Judge of Malaya Tan Sri Azahar Mohamed held that the relief sought by the former Umno members in their judicial review application has become academic as the party had completed its party election at all levels.
He said the status of former Umno members were undisputed as they were no longer members of the political party by virtue of clause 20.7 of the Umn Constitution.

PUTRAJAYA: MY E.G. Services Berhad and MYEG Commerce Sdn Bhd did not abuse their dominant position pertaining to the sale of mandatory insurance policies for online renewal of temporary employment permits for foreign workers, the Court of Appeal heard.
Lawyer Datuk Wira Mohd Hafarizam Harun, representing MY E.G Services and MYEG Commerce, argued that the contract entered into by My E.G. Services and the government to provide online renewal for foreign worker permit was not an exclusive agreement.
He said any competitor could enter into the same agreement with the government and would also be able to implement the same foreign worker permit renewal system.
