Biography

Michael does tax litigation and tax advisory work in Malaysia. Together with his team at Raja, Darryl & Loh, he has been representing clients in a wide range of tax-related matters before the Malaysian courts and tax tribunals, including those related to income tax, sales tax, excise duties, customs duties, and customs tariff classification. Prior to joining RDL, he was a tax professional with EY Kuala Lumpur. The clients he helped advise there include multinational and Fortune 500 companies, many of which were either listed on Bursa Malaysia or a stock exchange abroad (e.g. New York, London and Tokyo). He is very grateful to the Taxes Committee for selecting him as its scholar in 2024. Michael recognises God’s overflowing grace in his life in the law, and believes that the fiscal policy of a country reflects both the maturity and the cultural level of its people.
