MalayMail-Sept 21
If you have questions about the law in Malaysia, head over to KL Sentral today for free advice from lawyers at the Malaysian Bar’s first-ever MyBar Carnival 2025. Malaysian Bar secretary Murshidah Mustafa, who is also co-chair of the organizing committee, said the carnival was held at KL Sentral as it is a central and accessible location. “Our aim was to remove barriers. We wanted to demystify the law, to bring it closer to the people, not something distant or intimidating,” she said in her welcome speech. “The legal hub was designed to allow you, the public, to walk into the booths, ask a question and receive guidance — not a lecture, not a textbook answer, but practical, real conversation. “We create spaces where you can meet mentors, find guidance and see the profession not just as a career, but as a calling. And this is our investment in the future, ensuring that the next generation of lawyers not only practice with competence, but with compassion and integrity,” she said when addressing aspiring lawyers. Malaysian Bar president Datuk Mohamad Ezri Abdul Wahab said the carnival reflects the Bar Council’s vision of a Malaysian Bar that is “not confined to offices and courtrooms, but one that is approachable, visible and relevant to the people of Malaysia.” He added that the carnival is about opening doors, breaking down barriers and showing that the law belongs to everyone.
