't'lalaupun perenggan 3 (h) dan 3 (21 Ked Etika :iakim 1994 telah menetapkan wakcu pejabat sesaorang Hakim, saya masih- menerima aduan dari me~ata ternpac di Malaysia yang mengatakan ada Eakim yang lewac ke pejabat sehingga jam 10.00 ?agi dan ada yang tidak datang ke pejabat disebela' peta.ng. Jika aduan-aduan ini benar, ;naka Hakim-Hakim berkenaan bukan sahaja telah menunjuk teladan yang idak baik kecada pegawai-pegawai bawahan mereka, tetapi boleh menj ej askan imej baik 8adan Kehakiman.

Oleh itu mu ai 1.2.1996 (bagi Wi_avah Persekutuan 2.2.1996) semua Hakim Ma~~a~ah Persekutuan (termasuk Presiden Mahkamah Ravuan dan Hak~m-Hakim Besar Mahkamah Tinggi ) "can dan semua Hakim :•lahkamah Rayuan, Mahkamah T:.::gg!.
