About

Multinational telecoms giant BT is supported in the Southeast Asia region by a compact legal team of three members, serving the business across the ASEAN countries and Japan. This team – led by multilingual head of legal Maniko Lim – is full of ‘a wide range of relevant practice experience in the region’, according to Alix Grice, BT’s vice president regional counsel for the AMEA region. The function also employs the expertise of senior commercial lawyer Sarah Jane Hua and a senior regulatory advisor for Singapore and Northeast Asia Michelle Lim. Maniko Lim plays a general counsel role for the business in ASEAN and Japan and Sarah Jane reports to her, whilst Michelle Lim is responsible for the regulatory practice – an important role as the telecommunications industry is rife with strict and evolving regulation. Working with a mind-set of integration with each other, the team ‘support each other, don’t permit silos between the practice areas, and apply legal skills in a commercially flexible manner, while ensuring that governance and compliance requirements are met’.
