although i've read this a thousand times...

The case of Law Tanggie v. Untong a/k Gantang & Anor (1993):

The plaintiff was underaged when he bought a piece of land in Sarawak, and he wasn't a native. So he entrusted the defendant with the management of the land until he reached the age of majority and acquired native status.

And guess what?

The defendant transferred the land to his daughter as a - get this - gift.

When the plaintiff asked for the land, the daughter refused to transfer it.

We read these cases all the time, but I'm still shocked at how despicable people can be.
