OUR APPROACH
We are passionate about putting together a well-managed and globally competitive maritime sector in Malaysia. We approach every issue with this end-goal and big picture in mind.
Our experience has helped us reach out to industry players in bridging the gap between governance and industry and to positively address issues. This has gained us invaluable perspectives of each side’s views and honed our skills in matching them to resolve problems and offer realistic and implementable solutions.
We strongly believe that a law or plan is only as good as its implementation. Anchored and guided by this rule, we strive to produce only workable solutions and ideas.
While knowing each player allows us to place different sides onto the same page, we do often find ourselves becoming one of the parties making up the puzzle pieces to complete the picture. This, coupled with our experience, enables us to innovate in ways that allow us to assume many different roles to achieve our aims.
To enhance our capabilities in offering you the best arrangement possible, we have formed strategic partnerships with other organisations that will complement our expertise.
OUR PEOPLE
Sharina Shaukat & Partners is a boutique outfit offering personalised practical solutions that make real differences in the maritime world. We comprise three partners who have worked together for almost a decade in maritime research and consultancy.
Our training is in maritime law though individually our experience includes accounting, civil and commercial law, insurance, port management, government and politics, and business administration.
Our strong track record as a unit of three speaks of our ability to be a unique and reliable maritime solution provider with a passion and flair for fixing things and developing holistic novel ideas.
OUR WORK
Our work over the years speaks for us. The main theme of our work is maritime law and policy comprising both the public and private aspects of the discipline. Our clients and audience range from government agencies striving to resolve policy deadlocks to shipping companies seeking legal opinion to professional bodies requiring legislative intervention.
As a unit, we co-authored, among others, the Malaysia Shipping Master Plan (MSMP) 2017-2022 and the Marine Department of Malaysia’s Spurring National Growth book as well as developed the business plan for and facilitated the setting up of P&I Malaysia. We also co-drafted numerous draft legislations in areas such as ship registration, pollution from ships, seafarers, ship safety and security, ports, light dues and carriage of goods by sea.
Some of this work was undertaken in our capacity as country consultants of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO). We are also involved in extensive research and drafting work directly related to IMO conventions and represented Malaysia in several IMO and ASEAN meetings by chairing some of these meetings as well as contributing to projects and work assigned to Malaysia.
Apart from the aspects of maritime law and policy governing the industries, we also work in the field of public international law concerning law of the sea. We have provided legal opinion on maritime boundary disputes between countries as well as between states/provinces within a country. This includes publications in books, refereed journals, newspapers, and bulletins as well as speaking engagements at international conferences.
We have also provided training for the areas we work in. All members of our team have been trainers for various programmes at home and abroad.
