to enforce the judgment of the High Court of
Malaya.
Private respondent sought the dismissal of the case via a
Motion to Dismiss filed on October 5, 1988, contending that
the alleged judgment of the High Court of Malaya should be
denied recognition or enforcement since on its face, it is
tainted with want of jurisdiction, want of notice to private
respondent, collusion 8and/or fraud, and there is a clear
mistake of law or fact. Dismissal was, however, denied by

the trial court considering that the grounds relied upon are
not the proper grounds in a motion
9
to dismiss under Rule 16
of the Revised Rules of Court.
On May 22, 1989, private respondent
10
filed its Answer
with Compulsory Counterclaim and therein raised the11
grounds it brought up in its motion to dismiss. In its Reply
filed on June 8, 1989, the petitioner contended that the
High Court of Malaya acquired jurisdiction over the person
of private respondent by its voluntary submission to the
court’s jurisdiction through its appointed counsel, Mr. Khay
Chaw Tee. Furthermore, private respondent’s counsel
waived any and all objections to the High Court’s
jurisdiction in a pleading filed before the court.
In due time, the trial court rendered its Decision dated
October 14, 1991 dismissing petitioner’s complaint.
Petitioner interposed an appeal with the Court of Appeals,
but the appellate court dismissed the same and affirmed the
decision of the trial court in a Decision dated May 19, 1993.
Hence, the instant
12
petition which is anchored on two (2)
assigned errors, to wit:
