小功课，看看这两种备忘录有什么区别，这里想知道的是
- 签了备忘录后下一步是什么？
- 什么情况下备忘录会无效？
- 备忘录可以被“违约”吗？
- “违约”的后果是怎样？
Google 上对这两种备忘录有很多不同的答案，而我对马来西亚的合约/备忘录律法一点都不通，想到的是就直接拿Bursa的公告查查看吧。

结论
MoU 就是名副其实的备忘录，就是告诉大家本公司已经和谁谁开始有交谈，而且我们已经有一个大概的方向，我们会继续详谈然后正式签合约。
MoA 虽然也是备忘录，可是里边已经列出目标和条例了，大多数里边没提到需要再详谈和签另一份合约。有效期就是签MoA的时间，也就是即时马上开工了。
如果在座有大马律师，请不要客气指点指点！
