When a director resigns, it should be a clean and unambiguous exit. Yet in practice, informal or poorly documented resignations can lead to costly disputes and uncertainty. Our latest article outlines key legal considerations for directors and boards when handling resignations.
Takeaways for Boards & Directors:

- Cease all directorial activities immediately—this includes not signing documents, attending board meetings, or accepting directors' fees.
- Boards must formally acknowledge resignations and ensure ACRA records are promptly updated.
- Avoid ambiguous conduct—clean, documented exits protect all parties involved.

在新加坡执行中国法院判决的程序
Wondering if you can enforce a Chinese court judgment in Singapore? Even though there’s no formal treaty between the two countries yet, it’s still possible under Singapore’s common law. Managing Partner Chong Yi Mei explores this issue.
You’ll need to start fresh legal proceedings here, show that the Chinese judgment is final, conclusive, and for a fixed sum, and prove that the Chinese court had proper jurisdiction. If everything checks out, you might even get a summary judgment—meaning no full trial needed. Once you’ve got a Singapore judgment in hand, you can enforce it using the usual legal tools. It’s not always quick or simple, but it’s doable—and with both countries having signed the Hague Judgments Convention, future enforcement could become a lot smoother!
