KOTA KINABALU: The legal profession in Sabah should consider pro bono legal work to provide access to justice to those who cannot afford legal advice and representation, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor.
"Pro bono legal work is a social responsibility, and law firms can build pro bono projects into their business model to give back to society and promote a positive reputation. It is a noble calling, a responsibility to our community, and something you can all be proud of.

"Getting good justice is for everyone, and I hope the Sabah Law Society will ensure that its members continue and expand representation to the unrepresented in Sabah," he said at the Sabah Law Society (SLS) inaugural Gala Night at the Magellan Sutera tonight.
His speech was delivered by Minister of Tourism, Culture and Environment Datuk Christina Liew.
