SUMMARY:Concurrent session 6B: Cross-border dispute resolution in the Asi
 a Pacific: litigation\, enforcement and the new frontiers for disputes
DESCRIPTION:The Asia Pacific region is experiencing a period of profound 
 transformation in cross-border dispute resolution\, driven by landmark l
 egislative reforms\, the rise of specialist international commercial cou
 rts and an evolving treaty framework that is reshaping the enforcement o
 f foreign judgments across the region. China’s sweeping 2023 amendments 
 to its Civil Procedure Law have\, for the first time\, established compr
 ehensive rules on international civil jurisdiction and standardised grou
 nds for the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments\, whi
 le the expansion of international commercial courts — from the Singapore
  International Commercial Court to new specialist tribunals in Beijing\,
  Suzhou and beyond — is intensifying competition among Asia Pacific juri
 sdictions to serve as preferred forums for complex cross-border commerci
 al litigation.\n\nThis panel will bring together leading litigators from
  across the Asia Pacific to examine the emerging trends\, opportunities 
 and challenges in cross-border litigation and enforcement. Among the iss
 ues discussed among the panel are the evolution of international commerc
 ial courts in Singapore\, Hong Kong SAR and mainland China\; the challen
 ges of parallel proceedings and jurisdictional conflicts in multi-forum 
 disputes\; the role of tiered dispute resolution clauses in courts acros
 s Asia Pacific jurisdictions\; and the interplay between litigation and 
 arbitration as complementary pathways in an increasingly complex enforce
 ment environment.\n
