Langkawi R&D Academy Sdn Bhd (Lardac) has failed in its controversial RM480 million suit against the defence minister, its secretary-general and government for alleged wrongful termination and breach of a defence contract.
Kuala Lumpur High Court justice Abdul Wahab Patail dismissed Lardac's application with costs, without giving any grounds and ordered Lardac to pay costs of RM20,000.
Lardac had filed the suit five years ago claiming for damages as a result of the wrongful termination and breach of the contract to undertake avionics upgrading and refurbishment works involving the first of 10 Royal Malaysia Air Force Northrop F5-E&F fighter jets. Lardac also asserted that that the ministry had gone through the back door to allow its former partner, British-based Caledonian Airborne Systems Ltd (CAS Ltd), to take over the upgrading works, despite awarding Lardac the contract on Oct 11, 2001.
