I state that the Purported Letter of Resignation was pre- prepared by the Company and was obtained under duress, threat of inducement and that I was forced to resign from my position by the Company without any grounds. This is tantamount to my indirect dismissal from the Company without Q21: Did you receive any payment from the Company? Subsequently on the same day I received a letter back dated to 14.07.2008 purportedly being my appointment as the advisor to the new Company Chief Executive Officer. The contract amount was RM245,000.00 which was less than the basic salary and fixed al owance I would have received during the unexpired part of my employment contract from 15.07.2008 until 19.11.2009 amounting to RM445,500.00, equivalent to 16.5 months of my last drawn salary.
I refer to the purported letter of appointment as advisor to the new Company Chief Executive Officer dated 14.07.2008 at pages 23 to 25 of the Claimant's Bundle of Documents.

The brief evidence of COW-1, Mohd Noor Bin Mohamad, 54 years
old, former member to the Board of Directors of the Company appointed since 1 July 2008 are in COWS-1(a) and COWS-1(b) as follows:
COWS-1(a):

Sometime in July 2008, there were issues concerning the general management and performance of the Company under the Claimant's stewardship as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. There were major irregularities in the Company for which the Claimant as the Chief Executive Officer would be Q17: Did the Company launch any investigation on those major No, the direction taken was that the Claimant opted for negotiations and to take the “golden handshake” package. Therefore, it was decided that the issue was best handled by friendly discussion with the Claimant on a personal basis.

THE LAW ON FORCED RESIGNATION
Forced resignation is a question of law which must be determined based on the facts prevailing in each particular case. The Court of Appeal (Low Hop Bing JCA) in the recent case of V.P. Nathan & Partners v.
Subramaniam Govindan Nair & Anor & Another Appeal (2010) 1 ILR
“It is abundantly clear to us that in Stanley Ng Peng Hon (supra); and Stephenson v The London Joint Stock Bank Ltd (1902) 19 TLR 138, the respective courts had dealt with the question of resignation as question of law, and not of facts exclusively. Of course, the
determination of this question of law must be based on the
specific reference to the facts prevailing in each particular
case.

It is trite law that a forced resignation is no resignation at al but is a dismissal in fact. In the case of Stanley Ng Peng Hon v. AAF Pte Ltd
[1978] 1 LNS 186, Choor Singh J held that it wil be clear that the underlying basis of the doctrine of “forced resignation” is the existence of facts showing that an employee was put under compulsion to resign and that if he declined to do so, the employer would proceed to dismiss him in any event.
The burden is on the workman to establish that the employer dismissed him in a case where the fact of dismissal is disputed. The Industrial Court in the case of North South Development Sdn. Bhd. v.
Aloysies Fathianathan [2012] 2 ILR 267 at page 272 made reference to
the Court of Appeal decision in Weltex Knitwear Industries Sdn. Bhd. v.
Law Kar Toy & Anor. [1998] 1 LNS 258 where the High Court decided as
“The law is clear that if the fact of dismissal is not in dispute, the burden is on the company to satisfy the court that such dismissal was done with just cause or excuse. This is because, by the 1967 Act, al dismissal is prima facie done without just cause or excuse. Therefore, if an employer asserts otherwise the burden is on him to discharge. However, where the fact of dismissal is in dispute, it is for the workman to establish that he was dismissed by his employer. If he fails, there is no onus whatsoever on the employer to establish anything for in such a situation no dismissal has taken place and the question of it being with just cause or excuse would not at al arise: see Wong Chee Hong v. Cathay Organisation (M) Sdn. Bhd. [1988] 1 CLJ 298 (Rep); [1988] 1 CLJ 45; [1988] 1 MLJ 92 SC.” The questions that arose for determination in this case are as follows: whether the Claimant was forced to tender his resignation by the Respondent Company or whether he had resigned if the answer is in the negative, then there was no justification for the Claimant to claim that he was dismissed without just cause or excuse. If the answer is in the affirmative then the next question to be asked is whether the al eged dismissal was whether the Claimant was forced to tender his resignation by the Respondent Company or whether he had resigned if the answer is in the negative, then there was no justification for the Claimant to claim that he was dismissed without just cause or excuse. If the answer is in the affirmative then the next question to be asked is whether the al eged dismissal was with or without just cause or excuse.
COURT'S EVALUATION AND FINDINGS
When evaluating the totality of the evidence adduced by the Claimant and the Respondent, the Court must now ask this question i.e. whether the Claimant was forced to tender his resignation. Resignation under compulsion was no resignation in law and amounted to a forced dismissal. To determine whether the Claimant had voluntarily resigned or had been forced into resigning, the conduct of the Respondent and its representative was material to this issue. The Court wil now scrutinize the whole chain of event as forming one continuous story to find out whether what happened to the workman (the Claimant) was just and equitable.
Negotiations leading up to the Claimant's resignation
The Claimant confirmed in his cross-examination that he had discussions with En. Mohd Noor on 13 July 2008 at 10.00pm regarding his resignation or termination of services by the Respondent Company. In this discussion, the Claimant confirms that he had insisted that his contract was for two years ending on 19 November 2010 and requested for a severance package equivalent to the balance of the contract period. In the discussion, it was concluded that a new CEO would be appointed. Earlier at 2.45 pm on the same day, the Claimant contacted and met the Terengganu Menteri Besar who is the Chairman of Terengganu Incorporated, Dato' Ahmad Bin The Claimant concedes to the suggestions by the Respondent's Q78: Given that a new CEO would be appointed, the only option is Q84: You chose to sign the resignation letter rather than to be Q85: Is it true, you signed the resignation letter, after you spoke to CLW-1 who advised you to accept first any compensation that Q88: You confirmed the letter of resignation in COB-1 page 9 and the letter of appointment as independent Advisor in pages 10 – 12 was signed one after the other on 15 July 2008? The Respondent's counsel further suggested to the Claimant that by signing the resignation letter and accepting the payment of RM 245,000.00 and signing the letter of appointment as Independent Advisor and agreeing on the date for the cheque to be issued on 16 July 2008, the Claimant had misled the Respondent to believe that he had agreed to an amicable resolution of his exit as CEO of the Respondent Company. There was not an iota of evidence was adduced by the Claimant to show that he was threatened or that force was applied by COW-1 or COW-2 to make the Claimant sign the resignation letter.
Appointment as Independent Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer
The Claimant was offered an appointment with EPIC to the position as an Independent Advisor to the CEO on a contract basis commencing 14 July 2008 with a contract sum of RM 245,000.00 and the contract period shal be for a period of four (4) months til 30 November 2008. This letter of appointment signed by the Chairman of EPIC, Dato' Mohamed Awang Tera is reflected in COB-1, page 10. The acceptance of the offer was reflected by the Claimant's signature on 15 July 2008 (COB-1, page 12).
Whether the Claimant's resignation was forced or voluntary
The Claimant confirmed in his cross-examination that his claim was based on the contention that he was forced to sign the resignation letter on 15 July 2008 at 5.40pm (exhibit CLB-1, page18 and COB-1, page 9). According to the Claimant, he was asked to sign the pre-prepared resignation letter failing which a termination letter would be issued. The Claimant further confirms that a Bank Islam cheque of RM 245,000.00 dated 17 July 2008 (COB-1, page 13) was issued by the EPIC to the Claimant and that according to COB-2, EPIC Bank Islam Current Account Statement (COB- 2 page 1), the cheque of RM 245,000.00 payment was cleared on 22 July 2008. The Claimant confirms receiving the amount of RM 245,000.00. It was also in evidence that the Claimant in the one week period (15 – 22 July 2008) did not write to Dato' Muhatar Abdul ah (Chairman of Nomination Committee) and Dato' Mohamed Awang Tera (Chairman of the Company) to protest that he was forced to resign or write to withdraw the resignation The Claimant confirms writing an amicable e-mail on 16 July 2008 at 12.03am (exhibit CLB-2, page 38) to the Chairman and Directors of EPIC and the relevant extract of the e-mail are as follows: “As you are already aware, I have obliged the shareholders' request to resign as CEO of EPIC effective 15th July 2008.” In the case of Harpers Trading (M) Sdn. Bhd. Butterworth v.
Kesatuan Kebangsaan Pekerja-Pekerja Perdagangan [1988] 2 ILR
314 the Industrial Court decided as follows: “It is a wel -established principle of industrial law that if it is proved that an employer offered the employee the alternatives of “resign or be sacked” and without anything more, the employee resigned, that would constitute a dismissal. The principle is said to be one of causation - the causation being the threat of the sack. It is the existence of the threat of being sacked which causes the employee to be wil ing to resign. But where that wil ingness is brought about by some other consideration, and the actual causation is not so much the sacking but other accepted considerations in the state of mind of the reigning employee, then it has to be said that he resigned voluntarily because it was beneficial to him to do so, that then there has therefore been no dismissal.” On the totality of the evidence adduced and having read and considered the written submissions of both parties, it is the finding of this Court that the Claimant failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that he was forced to resign from EPIC. The Claimant had resigned voluntarily from the services of the Respondent as there was overwhelming evidence to show that the Claimant's wil ingness to leave the employment of the Respondent Company brought about by the terms of a negotiated settlement to end the employment relationship. The terms of a negotiated golden handshake settlement were accepted by the Claimant. The evidence of COW-1 was that there were irregularities and mismanagement issues relating to the Claimant's responsibilities and performance that warranted his resignation and that the Claimant discussed with COW-1 the “golden handshake” package. The relevant evidence of COW-1 are as follows: Q22: What was the outcome of the discussion? After long discussion, the Claimant agreed in principal that the following terms were to be represented to the Special Board of Directors' meeting on 14.7.2008 as the terms of his The Company would pay the Claimant up to November The Claimant would resign as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company with effect from 15.7.2008; Following the Claimant's resignation as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, the Claimant would be appointed as Independent Advisor of the Company til November 2008 to assist the new Chief Executive Q23: Were the terms of the Claimant's resignation minuted at the Special Board of Directors' meeting on 14.7.2008? Yes. A copy of the extract of minutes of the Special Board of Directors' meeting held on 14.7.2008 are attached here.
A detailed scrutiny of the contents resignation letter demonstrated that the Claimant had signed the resignation letter without any qualification and without writing his protest. The evidence was overwhelming clear that when the Claimant tendered his resignation there were no threats but as a result of an agreement reached between parties. In furtherance to this, the Claimant signed the letter of appointment as Independent Advisor and further received monetary benefit in the sum of RM 245,000.00. Therefore, based on the factual matrix and circumstances of this case, the Claimant's contention that he was forced to resign is improbable and unsupportable by any evidence. The submissions of the Claimant that “when there is a clear threat that the Claimant would be dismissed if he did not resign, it does not matter how non-coercive the Company's conduct appears to be” and that “the Claimant has discharged his burden of proof in establishing that he was directly dismissed from the post of Chief Executive Officer on 15 July 2008 by being forced to resign from his position” are devoid of any merits.
Whether confidential documents ought to be expunged from CLB-2
The Respondent prays in paragraph 8 of the Company's Supplementary Written Submissions that the confidential documents referred to in the Index to CLB-2 as follows: Presentation Slides to EPIC Board of Directors, Special Letter from Bugs Tan To Mr. Omar Suhaimi dated Board Papers regarding the Mushtari Engineering and Trading Sdn Bhd (“MET”)-Licensing Issue on the 10th Management Committee Meeting, 03/04/2008; Item No. 10: Eastern Pacific Industrial Corporation Berhad, Business Development Department, Project-Progress update as Item No. 13: EPIC's Three-Years' Business Outlook, Targets & Timeline Slides presentations presented to 63rd EPIC Board of Directors Meeting on 15/04/2008; Item No. 15: Memo Fax Transmission from Terengganu Inc. to TRICOR/EPIC dated 25/06/2008 to enclosed the nomination of Representative Directors to the Board of Item No. 16: Letter from Terengganu Inc. to Company Secretary of Item No. 17: EPIC Shared Values-SPICE, Briefing for Management Item No. 18: EPIC-Perutusan Tahun Baru on 21/10/2008 by the Item No. 19: Terengganu Fabricators Sdn Bhd, Business Plan from Item No. 20: EPIC-Kemaman Bay Landside Traffic Study Final be expunged as the confidential documents belong to the Respondent Company. The Claimant confirms in cross-examination that al these documents belong to the Respondent Company and the documents contained confidential information. The Claimant confirms that he had not sought the permission of the Respondent for the removal of the documents. Based on the principles of equity and good conscience the confidential documents in CLB-2 (except documents in item No. 5) which were obtained il egal y and without the Company's permission ought to be expunged. The documents in Item No. 5 (Presentation Slides to EPIC Board of Directors, Special Board Meeting dated Tuesday, 01/07/2008) of CLB-2 are not to be expunged as the Claimant had made reference in Question 24 of his witness CONCLUSION
In conclusion, taking into account the totality of the evidence adduced by both parties and bearing in mind section 30(5) of the Industrial Relations Act 1967 to act according to equity, good conscience and the substantial merits of the case without regard to technicalities and legal form, this Court finds that the Claimant had voluntarily tendered his resignation, hence there was no dismissal. The consequential issue of whether the dismissal was with just cause or excuse does not arise. The Claimant's case HANDED DOWN AND DATED THIS 9TH AUGUST 2012.
