Privately owned lands can be acquired by the governing authorities to, for example, improve public infrastructure or national developments. This form of land acquisition is known as a “compulsory land acquisition”. This SME Table Talk hosted by Thomas Philip’s partner - Alliff Benjamin, shares about the common process for a compulsory land acquisition, and whether private landowners have any legal avenue to challenge the acquisition of their lands.Refreshments are served at all SME Table Talks
