Raphael Kok, known to many as Raphael, is an alumnus of the Faculty of Law, University of Malaya (‘UM’). As a mooting coach, Raphael is commonly associated with his massive contribution in successfully guiding countless of UM mooting teams to multiple victories, nationally and internationally. Constantly raising the bar after each win, he is one of the driving factors to the mushrooming number of world-class mooters from the UM Law Faculty. Drawing a parallel to most students prior to entering law school, Raphael started his journey without even wanting to read law in the first place. As a kid who was mesmerised by dinosaurs and stars, Raphael aspired to be an archaeologist and astronaut. However, his family, which consists of UM alumni, prompted him to further his studies in UM. His diverse array of interests — ranging from history, politics, technology, and journalism — reaffirmed his decision to venture into the multidisciplinary realm of law. Thus, he acquired his undergraduate law degree from UM in 2008.

Kho Jia Yuan is a final year student at the Faculty of Law, University of Malaya. More fondly known as Benjamin, he hails from Johor Bahru yet is legally a Sarawakian. He is a big fan of Crayon Shin-chan, squash, bread, and lame jokes. The joy he finds in reading, especially the Harry Potter Book Series and Jin Yong’s Novels, is perhaps the only contender for his love for Wantan Noodle. ​Some recognise him for his intellectual prowess, others for his involvement in a multitude of projects, with a spice of volunteerism and a sprinkle of mooting. Yet, behind his formidable achievements lies a kind, compassionate and dedicated character who constantly strives to gain new experiences.
