Over the years, China has been a key trade partner of ASEAN countries, including Malaysia. The Belt & Road Initiative (BRI) has garnered attention worldwide as an ambitious trade and investment plan. With over 100 bilateral treaties between China and countries along the BRI, it is undeniable that this industry aims to break down the legal barriers in seizing opportunities along with the route and the alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanism will play a pivotal role when disputes arise.

However, as COVID-19 spreads, BRI related projects are likely to alter with respect to timelines, investments and other contractual factors, and will directly impact stakeholders and cause disputes. Amid the crisis, are the current ADR tools sufficient to address issues and strengthen the ties between investors, companies, stakeholders and countries?

Please join Dato’ Ricky Tan of Ricky Tan & Co, Zan Chen of DHH Law Firm, Arthur Dong of AnJie Law Firm, and Sun Wei of Zhong Lun Law Firm, in our webinar, titled “Belt & Road After COVID-19 and ADR – Legal Business Continuing Plan” on 16^th June 2020 at 11:00 a.m. MYT (GMT+8) as they discuss the impact of COVID-19 on the BRI and ADR mechanisms.

Teoh Shu Ling, AIAC’s Case Counsel, will be the moderator.
