After having a promising Charity Night 2010 on 02.07.2010 held at Gosh, the time has finally come for the Kuala Lumpur Young Lawyers Committee (KLYLC) to honour its promises by presenting the donations to the respective homes. As advertised, this year the KLYLC has adopted 2 homes for donation and they are Marginal Youth Centre (Rumah Victory) and Selangor Handicapped & Mentally Retarded Children Centre.

About 40 people attended the race and we had participants both from Bar members and Non-Bar members. There were 10 teams that took part in this race.

Inglorious Basterds 5. Blue Bulls 6. YLC 7. Go Go Consti 8. Day of
