The president of the Malaysian Bar has released a statement reminding students who intend to pursue a law degree locally to select law degree programmes that are recognised by the Legal Profession Qualifying Board (LPQB).
LPQB is the body tasked to prescribe the qualifications that would entitle an individual to enter the legal profession in Malaysia.
Qualifications to becoming a legal practitioner in the country can be viewed here.
According to Christopher Leong, institutions offering law degree progammes not accredited by LPQB must inform students that upon graduation they will not be permitted to practise law in the country. Such schools may be accredited with the Malaysian Qualifications Agency but this is not enough to satisfy the applicable criteria set by LPQB.
LPQB has informed Bar Council that the following higher education providers offer law programmes culminating in the following law degrees that are not recognised by LPQB:
(1) HELP University College: Bachelor of Laws (Hons);
(2) Management and Science University (“MSU”): Bachelor of Law and Commerce (Honours);
(3) Taylor’s University: Bachelor of Laws (Hons);
(4) Universiti Sains Islam Malaysian (“USIM”): Sarjana Muda Syariah dan Undang-Undang Dengan Kepujian / Bachelor of Syariah and Law with Honours; and
(5) Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (“UniSZA”): Sarjana Muda Undang-Undang Dengan Kepujian / Bachelor of Laws (Hons).
For twinning programmes, students are encouraged to check the programmes'status with LPQB.
