NeraTel disputes claim filed against Malaysian unit over lease agreement

The claimant is seeking $71,168.83 in liquidated damages.

Nera Telecommunications (NeraTel) is disputing a claim by Great One Coconut Products Industries filed against its unit, Nera Malaysia on 6 January.

The claimant, Nera Malaysia’s previous landlord, alleged that Nera Malaysia delayed handing over vacant possession of certain factory premises it had leased after the lease agreement expired.

The claimant is seeking liquidated damages of $71,168.83 (MYR233,709), less the deposit paid by Nera Malaysia, along with interest on the outstanding amount at a rate of 5.00% per annum from the date of judgment until full settlement, as well as solicitor costs and interest on legal fees.

NeraTel will seek to claim and/or counterclaim against the claimant and is currently seeking legal advice and representation against the suit.

The company stated that the suit is not expected to affect its ability to continue business operations or have a material impact on its net tangible assets and earnings per share for FY2025.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
