“Going forward, the Liquidator will continue to conduct the liquidation including but not limited to liaising with the Company’s creditors, realising all assets and recoverable avenues of the company for the benefit of its creditors and investigating the Company’s affairs,” a Hall Chadwick spokesperson said.
