As I have mentioned in previous reviews, this is due to the fact that the law of contract permeates virtually all areas of the law of obligations – and, on occasion, beyond as well. I will therefore adopt the approach which has been adopted during previous years: which is to focus, in the main, on general principles. There have – as we shall see – been a few cases that are of especial significance. Not surprisingly, given the fact that the foundation of Singapore law is English law, there are one or two significant English decisions as well – which will be referred to, albeit briefly. |
