Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Nancy Shukri brushed off allegations that foreign corporations can sue the Malaysian government arbitrarily after it signed the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA).
"They cannot arbitrarily summon the government to an international tribunal using investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS)," she told the Dewan Rakyat today.
The rules to bring a legal dispute to an international tribunal will be tightened under TPPA, she said.
