Both parties were found domiciled in Malaysia under LRA s3(2) and relevant case law, satisfying LRA s48 requirements; consequently the Malaysian court had jurisdiction to grant divorce and ancillary relief; the Australian proceedings were prima facie vexatious/oppressive because they sought only dissolution and would deny the husband ancillary relief available in Malaysia; therefore an anti-suit injunction was appropriate and was granted after balancing injustice in favour of the petitioner.
