The Asian Australian Lawyers Association congratulates William Lye OAM, one of the AALA’s founding members and the current National Vice President, on being awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia on Australia Day 2017.  William was awarded this highly regarded award for his service to the law, to business and to the promotion of cultural diversity.

William joins a number of legal luminaries to have received awards on Australia Day, including High Court judge Stephen Gageler AC and Victorian Governor Linda Dessau AC.

We are very proud of this achievement and the recognition of William’s continuing service to the law and the promotion of cultural diversity.

Congratulations!
