General Principles of the Malaysian Legal System basically traces the history of the ancient laws of this country, way back to the year 1500, very much earlier than the first foreign administration in Malacca by the Portuguese. It elaborates how the customs and traditions practised by the locals those days, were eventually converted to customary laws. The customary laws influenced by the common laws of England and Equity, introduced by the English, led to the formation of the Laws of Malaysia and Islamic Law in Malaysia. An in depth analysis of this development of laws runs to more than three Chapters in this book.
