The Annual Perak-Penang Bar Games was held in Ipoh this year with full participation from both sides. The games started off brightly for the Perak Contingent as the Tennis team beat their Penang Counterparts thoroughly. Unfortunately the afternoon sessions and the rest of the games were marred by a loss of a friend.

Sadly, what was to be a weekend of sports, fellowship and revelry turned into one of mourning at the loss of a much loved and popular member of the Perak Bar. At around 3pm on Saturday 19th July, Mr Thinakaran s/o Prabakharan (of Lalchand & Nawawi) or Thina as he was popularly referred to collapsed while playing futsal.

The rest of the games were declared non-competitive and no result was announced as a token of respect for our fallen comrade.

The Sports Committee would like to take the opportunity to extend our deepest condolences at the loss of our brother at law and wish to thank him for his years of participation and camaraderie. Thina would be truly missed. Rest in peace.

The sports committee would also like to thank all the convenors and participants in the said event and hope that they would continue to support the games in time to come.
