Separability, Competence-Competence And The Arbitrator's Jurisdiction In Singapore, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee Dec 1994

Separability, Competence-Competence And The Arbitrator's Jurisdiction In Singapore, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee

Jack Tsen-Ta LEE

The concepts of separability and competence-competence, which promote arbitral autonomy, exist in many jurisdictions. This article surveys the extent of their acceptance in Singapore's domestic and international arbitration law, and suggests that legislative refinements are necessary to remove doubts and resolve conflicts between the law and the SIAC [Singapore International Arbitration Centre] Rules.


Rediscovering The Constitution, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee Dec 1994

Rediscovering The Constitution, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee

Jack Tsen-Ta LEE

The fundamental liberties in our Constitution involve a study of tensions: between an individual's rights and the community's interests, between the role of the judiciary on the one hand and the executive and legislature on the other. How we should interpret them depends on where we think equilibrium should be established. This depends on two main factors. The first is the proper function of the judiciary as laid down by our Constitution, which is discussed in Part I of this article. The second is the nature of our fundamental liberties, for they are worded with varying degrees of generality. ... …

Rewarding Whistleblowers: The Costs And Benefits Of An Incentive-Based Compliance Strategy, Robert Howse, Ronald J. Daniels Dec 1994

Rewarding Whistleblowers: The Costs And Benefits Of An Incentive-Based Compliance Strategy, Robert Howse, Ronald J. Daniels

Ronald J. Daniels

Canadians today are very much concerned about corporate crime and about corporations that do not comply with regulatory requirements, especially those related to the environment, securities law and occupational health and safety regulations. This increased concern has led to proposals to extend liability for illegal corporate conduct (by making directors personally liable for the actions of their companies, for example); it has also led to arguments in favour of greatly increasing the sanctions on corporations (and individual wrongdoers within those corporations) for wrongful conduct. The recent academic literature reflects a lively debate as to the effectiveness of such proposals in …


Equal Protection And Sexual Orientation, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee Dec 1994

Equal Protection And Sexual Orientation, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee

Jack Tsen-Ta LEE

Equality is the thread running through the fundamental liberties enshrined in our Constitution. ... Equality, expressed in Art 12 of the [Singapore] Constitution, is also a specific right enforceable by the court. The difficulty comes in applying this deceptively simple concept to real-life situations. ... In considering the validity of legislation, Singapore and Malaysian courts have generally favored rational review, a modest conception of equal protection, unlike their American counterparts which have adopted a more expansive reading in the form of strict and intermediate review. This article examines how these three levels of equal protection review operate, and argues that …

The United Nations Response To The Crisis Of Landmines In The Developing World, Kenneth Anderson Dec 1994

The United Nations Response To The Crisis Of Landmines In The Developing World, Kenneth Anderson

Kenneth Anderson

Introduction. Although the United Nations has frequently been criticized for responding too slowly to problems in the developing world, it can take pride in having been among the first to recognize the crisis of antipersonnel landmines. Ever since the issue was first raised in 1992 by the International Committee of the Red Cross, key actors at the United Nations-including the Secretary General and other senior executives in the departments of Peacekeeping, Humanitarian Affairs, the High Commissioner on Refugees, and UNICEF-have been forthright on the need to take action against this problem.' The brief but specific mention of landmines in the …
