The Arbitration Clause In Contract Agreement is a fundamental component of commercial contracts in Malaysia, designed to provide parties with an efficient and binding alternative dispute reΊμΠΣΦ±²₯ mechanism. This document becomes essential when parties wish to avoid traditional court litigation and prefer the flexibility, expertise, and confidentiality offered by arbitration. The clause must comply with the Malaysian Arbitration Act 2005 and considers international standards, particularly relevant for cross-border transactions. It specifies critical elements such as the arbitration seat, governing law, number of arbitrators, and procedural rules, typically referencing the AIAC (formerly KLRCA) guidelines. The document is particularly important given Malaysia's position as a significant commercial hub in Southeast Asia and its recognition of international arbitration awards through the New York Convention.
