New Straits Times | Last July, the Legal Profession Act was amended to repeal section 46A, which prohibited lawyers with less than seven years’ standing from running for elections, but young lawyers are not running as candidates for the 2007–2008 Bar Council elections. National Young Lawyers Committee chairman Edmund Bon said it will take time for them to get in the council.
Malaysian Bar | Amer Hamzah Arshad shared about criminal practice, legal aid, human rights, and the Bar Council. He believed in “being for the truth no matter who tells it; being for justice no matter who it is for or against; being a human being first and foremost, and as such he is for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.”.
