My thoughts on the Malaysian legal job market in next 6 to 18 months for law graduates and young lawyers. Here’s a thread and with tips.
1. For graduates, I think M’sian firms will be cutting down on available pupillage spots and the honorarium payment.
2. The escalating competition for pupillage pay will stagnate for a while. Before this, the top pupillage pay in KL was more than many 1st year associates.

3. There will be far less positions to retain pupils. A general sense of a hiring freeze now.
4. For foreign university graduates, it will be tougher to secure training contracts and employment overseas. I saw this during the Global Financial Crisis of 2008. More foreign graduates returned to Malaysia for pupillage and for jobs.

So I just had the most efficient court hearing ever. Court application filed and with an unaffirmed supporting affidavit. Gave undertaking to file affirmed affidavit after movement control lifted. Yesterday, court asked parties to email any of their submissions or responses.
There were no objections by the other parties. So no need for any further affidavits. Last night, we emailed the Judge and Registrar, and to all parties, the speech format of reasons for what we were seeking. Other parties emailed over their statements in reply too.
Cut-off time for this exchange was 9.30am this morning. At 11am, the Judge emailed all to take into account all the statements and court papers. He granted order in terms of our application. The Registrar then emailed to formally close the proceedings.

Thread: I attended the Selangor Bar Civil Law Conference on Friday 14 February. The CJSS spoke on the Judiciary’s move to a paperless environment for the appellate Courts.

The Federal Court and Court of Appeal Judges will soon be operating from their iPad devices. 1/8
Records of Appeals and written submissions will all be uploaded on to the Judges' devices. References to documents will be projected up on to their screens.

The CJSS also shared that this will also change the way lawyers present their written and oral arguments. 2/8
It would make sense for lawyers to also get used to reading and operating from their iPad or tablet device. Written submissions should contain clickable links or easy references to schedules already contained within the written submissions. 3/8
