Not Malaysian news, but interesting because “The case was unique in that it was the first time a Dutch multinational had been taken to court in Holland over environmental damage caused abroad”. Is the door opening such that we can sue the parent companies of the multi-national subsidence operating in Malaysia? Hello, class-action lawsuits.

Dateline 2013-01-30:

A Dutch court ruled on Wednesday that a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell was partly responsible for oil pollution in the Niger Delta, but said the company was not liable for four of the five charges brought against it.

In relation to one spill it ordered the Shell subsidiary to pay compensation to a local farmer, saying the company had neglected its duty of care.
