Every year the various sub-committees of the Johore Bar organize a large number of activities for the benefit of our members. The success of these activities of course depends on the support and participation of our members. The recent years have seen an increase in the participation of younger members of the Bar in our events. This is an encouraging development. We look forward to a more robust involvement and attendance from the younger members. This is your Bar. Please come forward and contribute a little of your time and energy to turn it into a vibrant and dynamic Bar.
This year we have a fair blend of experience and youth in the Committee. I urge our members, especially the younger ones, to join the various sub-committees and share your ideas to make it a successful and exciting year for all of us.
