Name: CHUAH SUI CHEING
Petition No.: 18 -1381-10
Date: December 2, 2011
Admission Speech of Miss Chuah Sui Cheing as an
Advocate and Solicitor of the High Court of Malaya
BEFORE TUAN ABANG ISKANDAR BIN ABANG HASHIM
(RKKK 1)
If it pleases you, My Lord
I, ALEX CHANG HUEY WAH, appear for the Petitioner,
CHUAH SUI CHEING and my learned friends representing
the Attorney General, The Bar Council and the Kuala
Lumpur Bar Committee have already been introduced earlier.
If it so pleases Your Lordship, allow me to say a few words
to introduce your Petitioner, CHUAH SUI CHEING.
The Petitioner is the youngest daughter of Mr & Mrs Chuah
Seong Keng. They are present today.
When Your Petitioner was asked where she read law?
the answer was, where else but the University of Reading.
My Lord,
a little bit about Your Petitioner's personal life. She loves
challenges, martial arts and marathons are two things she
subscribes to for some life changing experiences.
To make her life more challenging Your Petitioner is a
MuayThai Kickboxer. To practise this type of art, she went
through torturous training sessions.
To test her endurance further, she seizes every opportunity
to take part in marathons, as a child she was very much
inspired by Forest Gump.
since Churchill was quoted, why not Forest Gump?
Your Petitioner told me Forest Gump has a special way of
interpreting life. He told us,
'My mother says, Life is like a box of chocolate, you never
know what you gonna get until you open it.'
Your Petitioner will open a brand new box of chocolate of
an advocate and solicitors today.
so I had to ask, why do you need so many trials and
tribulations?
She paused for a minute and calmly said, to prepare for
CLP...
The infamous CLP was so tough that she lost 15kg during
the course.
The petitioner is also fond of singing; she sang and
performed during at the Malaysian Night in her days at the
University of Reading.
My Lord, the Petitioner read in the chambers of Ms.
Junaidah Abdul Rahim of Messrs Albar & Partners a
decision She will never regret
as she gained invaluable experience under the expert
guidance by not only her Mistress but Mr. Chung Swee
Loong, senior partner and legal associates of the firm.
None of the Petitioner's achievements would have been
possible if it were not for the support from her family
members.
She would like to thank her parents, Chuah Seong Keng &
Ng Ah Mooi, for the sacrifices they have made and the
opportunities they have given her. The Petitioner
appreciates how lucky she is to have such dedicated
parents.
Your Petitioner also told me to mention her cousins and
aunts for their undying love and support, without which she
would not be here today.
To her fan club: Eva, Desmond, TJ, Paul, Dickson, Michele,
Sim and all her friends, she would like to thank them for
their friendship and continuous support.
Last but not least, to her fellow 'chambies' and everyone
else at Albar & Partners, she would like to thank them for
making her pupillage fun and unforgettable.
My Lord, I believe that the Petitioner's papers are in order
and the relevant bodies have no objections.
Wherefore, I humbly pray that the Petitioner be admitted and
enrolled as an Advocate and Solicitor of High Court of
Malaya.
