Asian International Arbitration Centre Appoints Former Judge Mary Lim Thiam Suan As Director
The Asian International Arbitration Centre (AIAC) in Kuala Lumpur has appointed Mary Lim Thiam Suan, a recently retired Federal Court of Malaysia judge, as its new director.
Lim’s appointment follows the departure of former director Sundra Rajoo and is part of a broader restructuring of the AIAC. This restructuring includes the formation of a new board of directors and plans to establish an independent arbitration court.
Lim will also chair the Protem Committee for AIAC's new Court of Arbitration, a role she assumed in early June. The committee comprises prominent practitioners and retired judges, including Chan Leng Sun SC and Jern-Fei Ng KC from Singapore’s Duxton Hill Chambers, Kamilah Kasim from Malaysia’s Rahmat Lim & Partners, and Zeyad Khoshaim from Saudi Arabia’s Khoshaim & Associates.
The committee is tasked with developing protocols and operational frameworks for the new arbitration court, which is expected to be established following amendments to Malaysia's Arbitration Act.
AIAC officials stated that the restructuring is designed to bolster the centre’s standing as a leading arbitration institution in Asia and globally.
