அரசினிடம் சம்பளத்துக்கு அமர்வதென்றால் எளிதாமோ?
உரசியுரசிப் பார்த்துப்பொன் உண்மைகாணல் அதுவேபோல்
குறைசிறிதே இருந்தாலும் கூடாதிதென் றொதுக்குவரே
வரைகடந்த பெரும்பதவி எதுவெனினும் இதுநிலையே

The Chief Justice is trying to narrow the gap in quality between his judges. Stuck with those he inherited, Tun Arifin Zakaria has set up a training institute for High Court judges and is not elevating non-performing Judicial Commissioners.
During the opening of the legal year in 2012, Tun Arifin Zakaria reiterated the promise he made on Sept 11, at his elevation to Chief Justice: “to transform our Judiciary into a world-class Judiciary.”
In an interview with The Star at the Palace of Justice, Arifin spoke candidly on his blueprint for the judiciary and how improving this branch of Government included pruning the non-performers.
There is now a Judges Training Institute under the auspices of the Judicial Appointments Commission (JAC) of which he is chairman.
Arifin said judges determined the curriculum for High Court judges and Judicial Commissioners (JCs).
