The late Datuk Liew Vui Keong was an ally of the Malaysian Bar. — MOHD SAHAR MISNI/The Star     

The Malaysian Bar was deeply saddened to learn of the sudden passing of former Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Law) Datuk Liew Vui Keong on Oct 2,2020.

We have had the great privilege of working closely with YB Datuk Liew who was actively engaged in a variety of legal and social issues, such as the improvement of human rights and the abolishment of capital punishment. He was incredibly committed to institutional and law reform during his tenure as the Law Minister. He was always ready to engage with relevant stakeholders to promote effective dialogue between involved parties.
