To become a member of Malaysian Bar, one has to finish his/her law degree in following NZ universities.

QUOTE
New Zealand*
  1. University of Auckland Bachelor of Laws (LL.B)
  2. University of Centerbury Bachelor of Laws (LL.B)
  3. Victoria University of Wellington Bachelor of Laws (LL.B)
  4. University of Otago Bachelor of Laws (LL.B)
  5. University of Waikato Bachelor of Laws (LL.B)

* Note: In the cases of Australian and New Zealand degrees listed above, apart from having to pass the final examination leading to the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) degree, the graduate must also satisfy additional requirements as prescribed in the relevant Gazette[I].
What does Gazette mean? I am currently confusing if I should apply to UK universities or NZ universities as I really like NZ very much.

Means you must finish the degree that leads to LL.B and fulfill extra requirements published by the Government of Malaysia.

What's there to be confuse? If you like NZ very much and it's LL.B program is recognized to practice here, ain't that an obvious choice? smile.gif

What will be the extra requirements? Are them listed down in advance or the related Government department will check with you after finishing LL.B program?

Yup! One thing that attracts me for pursing in NZ is their living environment and ethnics. Plus CLP and the long-going process to be a barrister in UK and Wales are exempted.
