This is especially after Malaysia's election to the UN Human Rights Council.

The Malaysian Bar president AG Kalidas reminded the Malaysian government that with its election to the United Nations Human Rights Council for the 2022–24 term comes an obligation to get rid of repressive laws.

He also welcomed the recent appointment of former minister Azalina Othman Said as the Special Adviser to the Prime Minister, saying it was a step in the right direction and increases the possibilities of the Malaysian Bar engaging with the government to develop and strengthen policies.
