KUALA LUMPUR, May 27 — The Malaysian Bar should put in place a binding ruling for law firms to start paying a minimum salary to pupils or chambering students to protect them from alleged exploitation, instead of introducing it as a guideline which law firms can choose to ignore, a group of young lawyers said today.typically undergo nine months of training under senior lawyers, before they apply to the court to officially be admitted to the legal profession as lawyers.
“And the Bar cannot say it is fulfilling its purpose without having done the right thing by ensuring that there is justice within the profession itself. The lens that has been used to view outside the profession must be used to view internally,” he told reporters here at Wisma MCA where the Malaysian Bar was holding an extraordinary general meeting .
The two demands by the Young Lawyers Movement today are for a direct election of Bar Council members to ensure views made by the Malaysian Bar reflect its members’ views, and for the Malaysian Bar to confirm whether the minimum remuneration for pupils would be done through a guideline or a ruling. He said there is frequently a championing of basic human rights and workers’ rights in line with international laws, but argued that there is still “systematic exploitation” in Malaysia and pupils are yet to be recognised as employees.
That's the Reasons for all Prices of anything goes up. Everybody wants minimum pay. Hehehe
