November is a month of celebrations for all of us in the CAstle as we are completing a full cycle of 12 years on the 6th of November and marching strongly to the next. Going by our anniversary theme of “Wholesome by the Dozen”, we shall up the ante to continue to deliver values to our clients, supporters and fans alike. We have worked vigorously in setting up the context in our first cycle and we are ensuring the rightful content in our next cycle.
To kick start the celebration, CA will be closed from 6 November to 10 November as we are heading to Bangkok for our annual company trip. Check out the photos of the excited CAtizens during our recent briefing by CAtizen Clement and we shall be back fully recharged on the 11 November to serve you! Stay tuned for some awesome photos from the City of Angels that never sleep…

Away from the legal profession and real estate, Chris is an entrepreneur at heart. This made him the perfect match to Freda Liu of BFM89.9 who has interviewed thousands of entrepreneurs, to jointly write a book on the romance of business Malaysia tracing it down to the root of SMEs and startups. Proving that business is way too emotional for its usual serious façade, Chris and Freda playing Romeo and Juliet respectively in order to “Shake and Spear” the common assumptions in business and entrepreneurship. This is the book for anyone who wish to venture beyond career and employment, or otherwise with interesting array of perspectives in the offering.
It will be unveiled to the world for the very first time on 12 December 2015 at the unique Skybridge of the VerveSuites KL South.

YES, we CAN – Clients Appreciation Networking!
We figured that if you can all use the same legal firm, you must have shared the same values. That’s the basis that we starts our series of quarterly event know as CAN after the initial success of the first two.
- CAN3 – We have Freda Liu of BFM89.9 in June sharing “Power of Your Voice”. Seriously, we cannot ask for a better person. Check out the photos here.
- CAN4 – We have Khailee Ng of 500 Startups in September sharing “From Startups to Venture Capital and Everything in Between”. Khailee rocks as usual for the attentive entrepreneurs and startups. Check out the photos here.
