On 22nd July 2021, Mr. Trevor Jason Mark Padasian who is a Partner in Skrine delivered a CPD Live Webinar on the topic of “Personal Bankruptcy”.
.
The virtual talk was held from 2.30pm – 4.30pm with 104 registered participants as at the closing date. Mr. Trevor gave detailed analysis on the revamping of the Bankruptcy Act 1967, with topics covering single order bankruptcy, voluntary arrangement, substituted service, protection granted against social guarantors and other guarantors and prohibited objections to discharge of bankrupt as opposed to automatic discharge of bankrupt. His views on the effect of the Temporary Measures for Reducing the Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Act 2020 on personal bankruptcy in particular drew great interest.
.
Mr. Trevor also shared flow charts to better help participants understand bankruptcy proceedings before and after amendments to the Insolvency Act 1967 (formerly known as the Bankruptcy Act 1967). Members of the Bar have given positive reviews on the concise and compact nature of Mr. Trevor’s presentation during the talk.

For that, the Malacca Bar wishes to thank Mr. Trevor for taking time off from his busy schedule to deliver this talk.
