“Running under the table? You’re risking a lawsuit.”

Many entrepreneurs start with the mindset: “No need to register yet, I’ll do it once the business grows.” The problem is — when a dispute arises with suppliers or customers (goods not delivered, late payment, or fraud), it’s very hard to defend yourself because the business has no legal standing. Registering your company (Enterprise, PLT, or Sdn. Bhd.) is not just paperwork. It gives your business legal recognition, credibility, and protection. Don’t wait until problems hit before you make it official.
