Hi guys,
My thread was barried under somewhere...have to tumpang thread, hope you don't mind.
Do you know anyone who has obtained a law degree from Hong Kong and is practicing in Malaysia?

I've applied for legal studies to Chinese University of Hong Kong as my second choice. I wanna clarify things just in case I really get the offer.

I'd really love to go as the uni itself is quite prestigious and Hong Kong is a very exciting city.
I have read from the Malaysian Bar website which they have a list of recognized law degree from uni in UK,Aussie ,S'pore and NZ. But they also said that the bar will take into consideration even if the degree you graduate with is not in the list.

So,my question is :
1. Has anyone been successfully accepted into the Malaysian bar with a law degree from Hong Kong?
2. Can anyone provide information about how is it like to practice in Hong Kong? What are the difference you see between practicing here and Hong Kong?
3. Do you know of anyone who is practicing in malaysia but does not hold a law degree from UK,Aussie ,S'pore or NZ but from other countries?

I am aware of the risk of not being able to practice here but it is not too much of a problem if I have to live and work there.

Thanks in advance!
