rules under various provisions, as and when necessary.
Since the coming into force of the Act, the Bar Council
has made many rules for the legal profession. This

Malaysia, updated as at 5 December 2007, contains
various rules and rulings in 19 Chapters relating to the
legal profession. Among others, it includes Letterhead
& stationery, Advertising, Professional practice,
Court practice and Pupillage. It also contains the

the Etiquette Rules 1978, Publicity Rules 2001 and the
