Details
An essential resource for both practitioners and academics, Asian Conflict of Laws: East and South East Asia, provides a comprehensive overview of the various approaches to private international law among the crucially important trade jurisdictions of East and South East Asia.

Gain expert guidance from local specialists who deliver thorough commentary and analysis on 14 jurisdictions of China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Mongolia, The Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Timor-Leste, and Vietnam. With a lack of legal harmonization between these countries, this useful book will be an essential resource for both practitioners and academics operating in this region.

The authors describe, in a clear and logically structured way, practice and procedure regarding:
- codification of private international law and relevance of case law;
- jurisdiction of local courts in foreign-related cases (including choice of court and arbitration clauses);
- applicable law;
- international civil procedure; and
- recognition and enforcement of foreign (judicial and arbitral) decisions.
