    The Appellant's repeated promises and the circumstances surrounding the RM200,000 cheque to the company he controlled constituted an enforceable promise of indemnity such that judgment for RM200,000 with interest was warranted; conversely the Australia Claim lacked a legal basis in Malaysia because the alleged cause of action arose in Australia, there was no proven liability of the Appellant's son in Malaysia nor consideration to bind the father, therefore that part of the Sessions Court judgment was set aside.
