COUNTRY SUPPLEMENT: Malaysia PART I: CONDUCT TENDING TO JEOPARDISE DUTY OF GOOD FAITH AND FIDELITY 1. SERIOUS PECUNIARY INDEBTEDNESS 1.1. For the purpose of this Section, the term serious pecuniary indebtedness means the state of an employee s indebtedness which, having regard to the amount of debt incurred by him/her has actually caused financial hardship to him/her. An employee will be deemed to be in serious pecuniary indebtedness where:- a) he/she is a judgment debtor, for as long as the judgment sum remains unsettled; or b) he/she is a bankrupt or an insolvent wage earner, for as long as he/she remains as a bankrupt or for as long as any judgment sum against him/her in favour of the Director General of Insolvency remains unsatisfied, as the case may be. 1.2. Serious pecuniary indebtedness from whatever cause will be regarded as necessarily impairing the efficiency and effectiveness of an employee. 1.3. An employee will avoid habitual indebtedness unless he/she proves that such indebtedness or insolvency is the result of circumstances beyond his/her control and does not result from extravagances or dissipation. 1.4. An employee will be required to disclose the full extent of his/her serious pecuniary indebtedness to MISC at the earliest opportunity when such indebtedness is known to him/her. 1.5. An employee who obtains an annulment of his/her bankruptcy may be treated as having fully restored his/her credit standing. 2. BORROWING MONEY 2.1. You may borrow from banks, insurance companies, co-operative societies or borrowing companies licensed under the Malaysian Banking and Financial Institutions Act 1989 or incur debt through acquiring goods by means of hire purchase agreements or other arrangements, provided that: a) such banks, insurance companies, co-operative societies or borrowing companies from which you borrow are not directly or indirectly subject to your official authority;

b) such borrowings do not lead to public scandal or be subject to construal that you have abused your position for our private advantage; or c) the aggregate of your debts does not or is not likely to cause you serious pecuniary indebtedness as defined under Section 1. 2.2. You may not borrow from any other person engaged in the business of money lending. 2.3. You must comply with the limitations on borrowing set out in the Code. 3. LIVING BEYOND OFFICIAL EMOLUMENTS AND LEGITIMATE PRIVATE MEANS 3.1. Where in the opinion of MISC an employee is or appears to be:- a) maintaining a standard of living which is beyond his/her official emoluments and other legitimate private means, if any; or b) in control of or in possession of pecuniary resources or property, movable or immovable, the value of which is disproportionate to, or which could not reasonably be expected to have been acquired by the employee with his/her official emoluments and any legitimate private means Subject to the requirements of applicable law, MISC may call upon the employee to explain in writing how he/she is able to maintain the said standard of living or how he/she acquired his/her pecuniary resources or property and also may be required to make declaration of his/her assets which may include assets belonging to his/her family/household. Such declarations as aforesaid should be made to your Human Resource Department. 3.2. Failure to make the asset declaration as required under Section 3.1 is viewed by MISC as a lack of commitment on the part of the employee to uphold MISC s policy on maintaining the highest standard of integrity, openness and transparency. 3.3. For the purpose of this Section, assets includes property of any description, whether movable or immovable, as may be prescribed by MISC from time-to-time.

Upon a lapse of seven (7) days after posting of the said registered letter, if nothing is heard of him/her or no satisfactory explanation is given by him/her, then the said employee is deemed to have broken his/her contract of service and in such circumstances MISC will have the right to terminate his/her service.
