He had his early education at the Government Primary School Buit Hill, Putatan; Sacred Heart Primary School Kota Kinabalu and completed his secondary education at the La Salle Secondary School, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.
His Lordship then worked as a clerk with the Education Department, Agriculture Department, Radio & Television Department and as a Welfare Officer with the State Welfare Department before proceeding in July 1972 to read for his Bachelor of Laws degree (LL.B) as an external student of the University of London at the MARA Institute of Technology in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia (now University Institute Technology MARA - UiTM). He has successfully managed to complete the course within the minimum period of 3 years and was conferred the degree with second class honours in August, 1975. His Lordship was also named the best law graduate of the Institute. He received his award from the former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad who was then the Minister of Education.
Upon graduation with the law degree, his Lordship was appointed as an Administrative Officer with the Chief Minister's Department, Sabah but was assigned the duties as a Deputy Public Prosecutor with the State Attorney General's Chambers, Sabah. He was also a part-time lecturer in law at the MARA Institute of Technology (Sabah Campus). After working for a while to help finance his further study, his Lordship proceeded to London in April 1976 and successfully completed his Bar-at-Law study in the same year. Thereafter he was called to the English Bar of the Honourable Society of Gray's Inn, London.
