PRAISE FOR THE ARREST OF THE SUPERYACHT EQUANIMITY
More important, it contains an easy, practical and interesting way of understanding how to arrest and effect a judicial sale of a ship in Malaysia.
Every maritime lawyer, as well as those involved in the maritime industry, must not only read it but have a copy in their library for reference.
However, above all else, this book is an inspiration to women of all ages. Sitpah shows us that it is normal to experience personal doubts, but that such doubts need not hold us back from achieving what we are each capable of. Sitpah’s willingness to show us her vulnerability, self-doubts and fear that being a female, indeed being less than 5 feet in height, would prevent her success helps us all to understand that self-doubt is normal and need not be self-limiting: she inspires each of us to realise that we have inside us the strength and passion to stand up, face the world, confront our fears and make a difference to the world. We just need to channel our inner ‘Sitpah’ and move forwards.
A member of the Maritime Bar, and internationally recognized as an Admiralty lawyer of renown, Sitpah’s handling of the Equanimity affair pro bono reveals her generous character. She exemplifies the maxim ‘Money is not everything’.
To the layman, this book will be entertaining. To the lawyer, it will be instructive.
In this book, Ms Selvaratnam captures the complex legalities of recovering the MY Equanimity. Her writing, as her approach to life (which she also discusses) is composed, organised and shows clarity of purpose…
