The earlier decision of the Malaysian Federal Court in Adorna Properties Sdn. Bhd. V. Boonsom Boonyanit @ Sun Yok Eng had not only spawned academic articles on the subject of indefeasibility of title and interests under the National Land Code 19654 ("the NLC") but had, unfortunately, also left an unwanted trail of uncertainty and insecurity of title for landowners which the Torrens system of land registration embodied in the NLC seeks to avoid, not to mention the slew of conflicting decisions pronounced in its aftermath.
