What we found

Faber Development Holdings Sdn Bhd (198301012219 / 107612-D) is a UEM Edgenta group entity based at Level 3A, Menara UEM, Bangsar South.

In Faber Union Sdn Bhd v Chew Nyat Shong & Anor [1995] 2 MLJ 597, a case over late delivery of vacant possession, the Supreme Court decided against the developer. It held that liquidated damages for the late delivery run from the date the purchaser paid the booking fee, not the later S&P date. The Federal Court upheld this ruling in PJD Regency (2021).
