Malaysia Brief: Malaysian news, and the law behind it

Malaysia Brief 大马简报 is a new bilingual news site for readers in Malaysia. Every day it brings you the news that matters, from national affairs and business to world news and lifestyle, together with real-time updates on the latest law and plain-language explanations of what the news means for you.

What you will find

The home page leads with the latest stories. Nation, Business, World and Lifestyle sit alongside a dedicated law section covering new Acts, amendments and court decisions, with explainers across employment and industrial relations, family law, company law and shareholder disputes, civil and commercial litigation, and construction disputes. The site is published in English and Chinese, and you can switch language at the top of any page.

The Just Ask Law podcast

Malaysia Brief is also home to the archive of Just Ask Law 问LAW就好, a Mandarin legal podcast produced in cooperation with Astro SYOK. Every episode, with show notes, is in the Podcast section.
