Mistake the vitiating element of a contract / Abdul Razak Abdul Aziz

Mistake is possibly the most obscure part of the law of contract. The 'textbook writers for instance Cheshire Fifoot and Anson suggest that mistake is a. magic doctrine in English law which may avoid a contract even where an offer has been accepted in its identical terms. Judges frequently use the word mistake but it is submitted that mistake itself is irrelevent at law. It may only be a ground for affording a party, some relief in Equity. A contract can only be void in law if there are elements which would prevent the parties to it from being ad idem. It could pe therefore be said that the meaning of mistake at law is very restrictive. This restrictive scope is adopted by the English Legal System. At law mistake as understood by a layman is not relevant. A layman might well believe that where a person enters into a contract under a misapprehension of certain, facts the contract should not be enforced. But, falling to the restrictive meaning, this cannot be so. The law does not declare a contract void merely because one or bctth parties would not have made it )lad the true facts been known

The contribution of ecological design to green planning approach of a university campus in Malaysia

The concept of ecological design has produced positive results in terms of supporting the achievement of sustainable development in many fields. However, its practice currently faces many challenges due to many influential factors such as the low level of acceptance amongst stakeholders. As such, this research attempts to study the application of ecological design in contributing to the approach of green planning in designing a university campus in Serdang, Selangor. The researcher had made an observation survey of 23 selected buildings within the Universiti Putra Malaysia area, based on a set of pre-determined factors and its sub-factors in determining the level of compliance to ecological design. Generally, the results demonstrated that the level was relatively moderate and many buildings failed to comply with some factors of ecological design. The reason being that the buildings were built more than 10 years ago in which the concept of ecological design was rather new at that time. Some newer buildings corresponded fairly well to some ecological design, such as the elements of indoor environmental quality
