On November 19, 2025, Lawyer KHOR SEE LIN, Senior Partner of YEOH MAZLINA&PARTNERS Yangma Law Firm, visited Shanghai Guochuang Law Firm. Chen Min, Director of Shanghai Guochuang Law Firm, and partners Ji Xin and Yao Ruoyu warmly welcomed them.

Ms. SEE LIN is a senior partner at YEOH MAZLINA&PARTNERS law firm and holds both a lawyer's practice certificate and an Islamic finance qualification certificate. The meeting between Ms. SEE LIN and Director Chen Min of Guochuang Institute originated from their initial acquaintance at the WLN Lawyers Alliance conference ten years ago, and both parties are looking forward to this in-depth exchange.

During the meeting, Director Chen Min took the ten-year development of China's ODI (Overseas Direct Investment) business as a starting point and deeply analyzed the growth trajectory of Chinese enterprises' "going global". He pointed out that ODI business is not only the core area witnessing the wave of cross-border investment, but also condenses the transformation of Chinese enterprises from "exploring going global" to "steady layout": ten years ago, enterprises' going global was often accompanied by cautious attempts at policy exploration, and their understanding of overseas market rules and compliance requirements was still in its infancy; Nowadays, with the continuous deepening of the country's opening-up strategy, ODI business has entered a mature stage of "compliance led". While expanding in scale, enterprises pay more attention to controlling investment risks and adapting to the local legal system, achieving a transformation from "going global" to "walking steadily and well".


While deeply cultivating the Central Asian market, Guochuang continues to increase its layout in the East Asian market, with long-term cooperation and legal service upgrades with Malaysia becoming the focus of attention. Although the two parties have been cooperating for over a decade, the increasingly rigorous local legal system has brought new compliance challenges to Chinese enterprises' investments. How to provide more professional and low-risk legal support for Chinese enterprises conducting outward direct investment (ODI) in Malaysia has become the core focus of the National Innovation Institute. Lawyer Ji Xin's core concern was deeply addressed in Ms. SEE LIN's sharing. She conducted a systematic analysis based on the international situation between China and Malaysia and the differences in judicial backgrounds between the two countries, combined with the Malaysian banking legal system and practical risks: from the legal threshold in the investment access stage, to the compliance requirements of banks in fund circulation, to the differences in judicial procedures in dispute resolution, all of which were carefully dissected.
This sharing not only allowed the attendees to intuitively grasp the legal core points of Malaysia's investment environment, but more importantly, it laid a solid cognitive foundation for the law firm's subsequent layout of legal services in the region - clarifying the compliance service scenarios that need to be broken through, clarifying the risk prevention logic of the intersection of justice and finance, and providing precise direction for customized corporate legal service solutions. This exploration by Guochuang Institute also provides a solid legal support perspective for Chinese enterprises to deeply cultivate the Southeast Asian market.
