Case Significance
Ser Kang Wei (Xu Kangwei) and another v Salas Porras, Carlos Luis and others [2026] SGHC 192 was decided in the General Division of the High Court by Tan Siong Thye SJ on 22 September 2026.

The third defendant, Emily Hwang Mei Chen, applied in HC/SUM 2275/2026 to set it aside and in HC/SUM 2023/2026 to set aside an order permitting enforcement in the Republic of Mauritius. The issues were full and frank disclosure and the court's power under O 3 r 2(8) of the Rules of Court 2021. The court found no breach of the disclosure duty and dismissed both summonses.
