The Kuala Lumpur Young Lawyers Committee (“KLYLC”) is back to School



A project initiated by the KLYLC 2005/06, this program involves visiting the Law Faculties of Universities around Klang Valley to meet the LLB undergraduates and it continues to top the list of the many activities the KLYLC organises. On 1.8.2009 and 8.8.2009 the KLYLC literally went back to school to meet the students of University Malaya (“UM”) and University Teknologi Mara (“UITM”).

The volunteer lawyers attended the workshop in UM were Lai Chee Hoe, Sandesh Kabir, Fam Yu Min, Richard Wee, Kenneth Poh Lim, Caryn, Syahredzan, Daniel Albert, Alan Teoh, Chan Kit Keong, Jason Kong, Jessica Audrey, Andrew Liew, Samuel, Clarice Ngan, Mun Wai, Brandon, Aston, Sherrie, Wai Kuan, Donovan, Yvonne.

The volunteer lawyers attended the workshop in UiTM were Lai Chee Hoe, Sandesh Kabir, Fam Yu Min, Richard Wee, Kenneth Poh Lim, Syahredzan, Chan Kit Keong, Jason Kong, Mun Wai, Aston, Sherrie, Seirra Sacha, Faris Jinnah.

The session was conducted in an interactive manner. After Lai Chee Hoe and Sandesh Kabir delivered a short welcoming speech, the students were segregated into different tutorial halls and volunteer lawyers were dispatched into the respective halls. The students were welcomed to ask any questions related to work, chambering, practising, areas of laws, contentious piece of legislation, etc. The students were an enthusiastic lot and were very bright.

The KLYLC’s objective is to manage the expectation of the students and hopes with these workshops, we will be able to play our part in contributing towards the improvement of the standards and quality of the in-coming younger lawyers.

The next workshop is on 12.9.2009 at INTI College and 31.10.2009 at Taylor’s College. If you are interested to join us in our sessions, please contact Melissa at 03- 26920745.
