After landing on runway 23L; ground instructed our taxi route as 'right on charlie; left on romeo; turn right on hotel. Cross runway 32 on hotel then right turn on mike'. After turning eastbound on mike taxiway; a [corporate jet] came directly opposite us moving westbound with taxi light on. I stopped at intersection mike and juliet and turned my taxi light off to indicate that I had stopped the aircraft. The [other aircraft] kept moving towards us; we flashed our lights but the aircraft continued to move towards us with its taxi light on.
