COMMENT Every law student would say that they want to be the next Karpal Singh however not many actually walk the path taken by the Tiger of Jelutong. The path he took comes with many adversities ranging from imprisonment, defeats in elections, graduating late from law school and objection to the long call to the Bar.

All these challenges made him the man that he was and makes us realise that we have to face our own challenges in life to realise our true potential.

Tomorrow marks the second year of his passing yet he still remains a figure of inspiration to many others wanting to walk the footsteps of the tiger.
