In Corporate Governance this semester, we are learning about International Rules of Incorporation, Bylaws, Corporate Structures, etc. It’s actually proving to be a fairly fascinating class, and I’m enjoying watching the students work.
One of the assignments I have given them is for each group to choose a country and to complete the appropriate Articles of Incorporation paperwork for that country. Anyways, long story short, I ended up on the SSM (government) website, which directed me to with Form A (the Business Registration form). Unfortunately, it was entirely in Malay, making it useless to my students. So I decided to translate it!
I cannot promise you that this is an exact translation, but I believe it is pretty accurate. I hope this will help someone out!
