This is an important book which presents the latest trends in mediation and arbitration in the Asia Pacific region. As settlement of civil and commercial disputes through litigation has become very costly and tedious, the modern world is heavily leaning towards mediation and arbitration because of their comparative cost efficiency and simplicity. The sixteen write-ups in this book are the papers presented in the Asia-Pacific Conference on Mediation and Arbitration held in Kuala Lumpur. The utility of the book is increased because it contains in its Appendix the full text of the Malaysian Arbitration Act 2005 and the Memorandum of Association and Article of Association of the Malaysian Financial Mediation Bureau, which is being printed as part of a book for the first time.
