ADR REPORT

Chairman : Mr. Choy Kam Lee

The Perak Bar Committee on ADR adjourned the following for the year :-

1. Mediation Skills Training in Ipoh on the 7^th to the 11^th February 2009.Members of the Perak Bar together with members of the judiciary attended the mediation course and I believe they enjoyed themselves. There were 21 participants of which four did not qualify to be mediators after an assessment

2. We also had a few Saturday Training practices for those who wanted to further

sharpen their mediation skills.

3. On the 10^th July 2009, we had a talk on Arbitration under the new Arbitration Act 2005 by My. Sundra Rajoo at the Perak Bar Secretariat. There were 19 members who gave their names intending to attend but on the day of the talk we only had 7 members attending. I hope that when talks are organized more members would attend in future.
