How is the Asian Principles different from Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Asia (Judgments Compendium)?...
The Asian Principles and the Judgments Compendium complement each other. The Judgments Compendium comprises 15 concise reports written by legal scholars and practitioners in the same 15 countries, identifying their existing recognition and enforcement of foreign judgment rules. In essence, the Judgments Compendium is a vertical country-by-country analysis supported by full citations. The Asian Principles compares, contrasts and summarises the laws of those 15 countries to form 13 overarching principles. In other words, the Asian Principles has done comparative analysis for its readers and is a horizontal principle-by-principle analysis where each country's position under a principle is analysed in relation to those of the other 14 countries.
I am advising clients in ASEAN countries and want to know more about the rules on foreign judgments recognition and enforcement in some particular places. Do I read the Asian Principles or the Judgments Compendium?
If you are strapped for time and only want to focus on one country, we recommend you read the Judgments Compendium which gives you a dedicated report in English on relevant rules of the country of your interest. The fully-cited report will point you to not only relevant legal provisions but also successful and failed precedents (if any) to help you design your advisory strategy. We have made individual reports in the Judgments Compendium available for you. If your practice often involves multiple ASEAN countries, we recommend that you read the Judgments Compendium and the Asian Principles together. The former tells you what the law is in those countries while the latter gives you the comparative picture. You no longer need to draw an Excel table to do comparison yourself. We have made a bundle of these two publications available for you at a discounted price.
