Kota Kinabalu: The legal profession in Sabah should consider pro bono legal work to provide access to justice to those who cannot afford legal advice and representation, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor.
“Pro bono legal work is a social responsibility, and law firms can build pro bono projects into their business model to give back to society and promote a positive reputation. It is a noble calling, a responsibility to our community, and something you can all be proud of. “Getting good justice is for everyone, and I hope the Sabah Law Society will ensure that its members continue and expand representation to the unrepresented in Sabah.
“It plays an essential role in upholding the rule of law, a cornerstone upon which any just and equitable society firmly rests. “I wish to see the Sabah Law Society’s continued rise to excellence. I want to see it evolve into a symbol of legal eminence, setting elevated standards for lawyers in our region.
“We take pride in supporting and providing the initial funding of this significant milestone in our journey towards excellence in professional services and the promotion of alternative dispute resolution not only in the Borneo region but also the broader Nusantara and BIMP-EAGA regions,” he said. “We also recognise the pivotal role played by SLS in promoting Foreign Direct Investment through legal visits to other countries.
The Chief Minister was also pleased to learn of the SLS’ continued plans to host international law conferences in Sabah.
