Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon: Adjudicator, advocate, or something in between?
Coming to terms with the role of the party-appointed arbitrator
The Herbert Smith Freehills-SMU Asian Arbitration Lecture Series was established in 2010 and was made possible by a term fund contribution by Herbert Smith Freehills LLP, Singapore.
The objective of the Lecture Series is to promote collaborative forms of dispute resolution and access to justice, and in so doing to promote Singapore as the centre for dispute resolution in Asia, particularly in arbitration and mediation. Each year, a distinguished arbitrator is invited to present this lecture, which will be published in a leading regional arbitration journal.
This year's Herbert Smith Freehills-SMU Asian Arbitration Lecture will be delivered by Singapore's Chief Justice, Sundaresh Menon, with commentary by Alastair Henderson, Herbert Smith Freehills' Head of International Arbitration Southeast Asia.
