Last Tuesday, we had the pleasure of hosting a workshop in collaboration with Taylor’s Mooting Society, titled “𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐒𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞: 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐫𝐠𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬.”

Our Dispute Resolution lawyers, Nicholas Yap and Thevan Aruljothi, shared practical insights on the fundamentals of mooting – from structuring submissions to crafting persuasive advocacy.

A big thank you to the team at Taylor’s Mooting Society for the collaboration and to all participants for their enthusiasm and thoughtful engagement throughout the session.

We’re pleased to share that our Nicholas Yap recently served as a Co-Arbitrator at the Malaysian Bar Sports Arbitration Moot Competition (MyBar SAMCO 2025), organised by the Bar Council Sports Law Practice Committee.

The competition brings together law students from universities across Malaysia to experience sports arbitration in a simulated setting, tackling disputes inspired by real-world sports cases and developing advocacy, reasoning, and teamwork skills.

We are glad to have contributed to an initiative that promotes practical learning and supports the development of future members of the legal profession. Kudos to the organising team at Malaysian Bar for a well-run and meaningful event.

We are proud to support the Women’s Equality Day Online Essay Contest, organised by the Organisation of Women Law Students from Advance Tertiary College, in collaboration with Women’s Aid Organisation.

This contest invites students to explore pressing issues, such as domestic violence, harassment, systemic inequalities, and the role of youth in driving positive change. At Daniel & Wong, we believe youth voices and dialogue are vital in shaping a safer, more equal future for women.

Fun fact: The trailblazing B.H. Oon (Lim Beng Hong) became Malaysia’s first female lawyer and played an instrumental role in amending the law that finally allowed women to practise at the Malayan Bar in 1935.

We’re pleased to see our associate, Thevan Aruljothi, return to his alma mater, Advance Tertiary College, to conduct his first Legal Drafting Workshop. From participant to presenter, it was a full-circle and meaningful moment.

The session focused on practical insights into written advocacy, and we hope it provided students with valuable takeaways.

Kudos to Thevan Aruljothi for leading the workshop, and to Amanda Yap and the Moot Society committee of Advance Tertiary College for making the session a success!

Last Friday, we had the privilege of organising a blood donation drive in collaboration with the National Blood Centre and the Ministry of Health, and we’re thrilled to share that it was a tremendous success!

Thanks to the overwhelming support from our colleagues, clients, friends, and the wider community, we welcomed 92 volunteer donors, out of which 75 successful donations were made — surpassing the target of 50 set by the National Blood Centre.

Your generosity will go a long way in saving lives.

A special thank you to our sponsor, Gong Cha Malaysia, for keeping our donors refreshed and energised. Your support added an extra touch of warmth and hospitality.

Daniel & Wong‘s teams hit the ground running (literally!) at the 10th Anniversary KL Bar Run 2025 hosted by the Kuala Lumpur Bar Committee last Saturday. Bright and early at 6 a.m., Team DW Mastercopy, DW Final, and DW Swifters laced up and gave it their all.

The race wasn’t just about the finish line—it was about cheering each other on, sharing laughs, and catching up with our peers in the legal community. The energy, camaraderie, and fun made it an unforgettable day.

A big thank you to the Kuala Lumpur Bar Committee for putting together such a fantastic event. We’ll be back next year—aiming for even better timing and just as much fun!
