  • The Development of Singapore Law: a Bicentennial Retrospective1
    (2020) 32 SAcLJ 804 (Published on e-First 8 May 2020) THE DEVELOPMENT OF SINGAPORE LAW: A BICENTENNIAL RETROSPECTIVE1 The present article reviews (in broad brushstrokes) the status of Singapore law during its bicentennial year. It is not only about origins but also about growth – in particular, the autochthonous or indigenous growth of the Singapore legal system (particularly since the independence of Singapore as a nation state on 9 August 1965). The analysis of this growth is divided into quantitative as well as qualitative parts. In particular, the former constitutes an empirical analysis which attempts – for the very first time − to tell the development of Singapore law through numbers, building on emerging techniques in data visualisation and empirical legal studies. Andrew PHANG Judge of Appeal, Supreme Court of Singapore. GOH Yihan Professor of Law, School of Law, Singapore Management University. Jerrold SOH Assistant Professor of Law, School of Law, Singapore Management University; Co-Founder, Lex Quanta. I. Introduction 1 The present article, which reviews (in broad brushstrokes) the status of Singapore law during its bicentennial year since the founding of Singapore by Sir Stamford Raffles in 1819, is of particular significance as English law constitutes the foundation of Singapore law. The role of Raffles and his successors, therefore, could not have been more directly 1 All views expressed in the present article are personal views only and do not reflect in any way the views of the Supreme Court of Singapore, the Singapore Management University or Lex Quanta. Although this article ought, ideally, to have been published last year, the immense amount of case law that had to be analysed has led to a slight delay.

  • 4 Comparative Law and Constitutional Interpretation in Singapore: Insights from Constitutional Theory 114 ARUN K THIRUVENGADAM
    Evolution of a Revolution Between 1965 and 2005, changes to Singapore’s Constitution were so tremendous as to amount to a revolution. These developments are comprehensively discussed and critically examined for the first time in this edited volume. With its momentous secession from the Federation of Malaysia in 1965, Singapore had the perfect opportunity to craft a popularly-endorsed constitution. Instead, it retained the 1958 State Constitution and augmented it with provisions from the Malaysian Federal Constitution. The decision in favour of stability and gradual change belied the revolutionary changes to Singapore’s Constitution over the next 40 years, transforming its erstwhile Westminster-style constitution into something quite unique. The Government’s overriding concern with ensuring stability, public order, Asian values and communitarian politics, are not without their setbacks or critics. This collection strives to enrich our understanding of the historical antecedents of the current Constitution and offers a timely retrospective assessment of how history, politics and economics have shaped the Constitution. It is the first collaborative effort by a group of Singapore constitutional law scholars and will be of interest to students and academics from a range of disciplines, including comparative constitutional law, political science, government and Asian studies. Dr Li-ann Thio is Professor of Law at the National University of Singapore where she teaches public international law, constitutional law and human rights law. She is a Nominated Member of Parliament (11th Session). Dr Kevin YL Tan is Director of Equilibrium Consulting Pte Ltd and Adjunct Professor at the Faculty of Law, National University of Singapore where he teaches public law and media law.

  • Opening of the Australian Bar Association Biennial International Conference
    Opening of the Australian Bar Association Biennial International Conference 11 July 2019, Singapore "Convergence - the Courts of Singapore and Australia" The Hon Susan Kiefel AC Chief Justice of Australia The President of the Australian Bar Association Ms Jennifer Batrouney, His Excellency The High Commissioner to Singapore Bruce Gosper, Chief Justice Menon, other judicial colleagues past and present, members of the Australian Bar Association, ladies and gentlemen. My husband and I are pleased to be able to be here with you for this important Conference. I congratulate the ABA for holding its biennial conference in the Asia Pacific region of which Australia is most definitely a part. In recent times Australia has sensibly taken a more active role in the region. Its relationships with its neighbours have clearly strengthened. So too have the relationships between Australian courts and courts in the region. For some years now Australian Federal and State Supreme Courts have been involved in judicial education and training programmes in the region. In recent years members of the High Court have visited China, at the invitation of the President of the Supreme Court. They have attended the opening of the new premises of the Court of Final Appeal in Hong Kong. Its Chief Justices regularly attend the Conference of Chief Justices of Asia and the Pacific which is held at the same time as the Law Asia Conference. It was last held in Japan and this November I will be attending the conference in Hong Kong. In September I will be returning to Singapore to speak to the Singapore Academy of Law.

  • Constitutional Documents of All Tcountries in Southeast Asia As of December 2007, As Well As the ASEAN Charter (Vol
    his three volume publication includes the constitutional documents of all Tcountries in Southeast Asia as of December 2007, as well as the ASEAN Charter (Vol. I), reports on the national constitutions (Vol. II), and a collection of papers on cross-cutting issues (Vol. III) which were mostly presented at a conference at the end of March 2008. This collection of Constitutional documents and analytical papers provides the reader with a comprehensive insight into the development of Constitutionalism in Southeast Asia. Some of the constitutions have until now not been publicly available in an up to date English language version. But apart from this, it is the first printed edition ever with ten Southeast Asian constitutions next to each other which makes comparative studies much easier. The country reports provide readers with up to date overviews on the different constitutional systems. In these reports, a common structure is used to enable comparisons in the analytical part as well. References and recommendations for further reading will facilitate additional research. Some of these reports are the first ever systematic analysis of those respective constitutions, while others draw on substantial literature on those constitutions. The contributions on selected issues highlight specific topics and cross-cutting issues in more depth. Although not all timely issues can be addressed in such publication, they indicate the range of questions facing the emerging constitutionalism within this fascinating region.

  • Beyond the Rules of Law in Singapore
    Singapore Journal of Legal Studies [2012] 269–297 BETWEEN APOLOGY AND APOGEE, AUTOCHTHONY: THE ‘RULE OF LAW’BEYOND THE RULES OF LAW IN SINGAPORE Thio Li-ann∗ I. The ‘Rule of Law’ as One of the Pillars of Constitutional Architecture Against the triumvirate of evaluative factors (viz. the ‘rule of law’, human rights and democracy) assessing good government, domestic and foreign sources1 have given Singapore both good and bad reports. The litany of criticisms has been rehearsed elsewhere,2 but essentially charge that the Singapore legal system is one of ‘rule by law’, not ‘rule of law’, where law is apprehended in formalist terms as ‘lex’, rather than the more majestic justice-oriented ‘ius’.3 That is, Singapore’s formal or statist ‘rule of law’ promotes rule-following, rather than applying public power-constraining principles to control arbitrariness. While the ‘rule of law’ in protecting property rights and commercial transactions is broadly praised, its application in public law cases has attracted the greatest criti- cisms, some bearing weight.4 These criticisms relate to preventive detention, ouster ∗ Professor of Law, National University of Singapore. 1 See e.g., Li-ann Thio, “Lex Rex or Rex Lex: Competing Conceptions of the Rule of Law in Singapore” (2002) 20 UCLA Pac.

  • Legal Systems in Asean – Singapore Chapter 3 – Government and the State
    Government and the State LEGAL SYSTEMS IN ASEAN – SINGAPORE CHAPTER 3 – GOVERNMENT AND THE STATE THIO Li-ann* A. INTRODUCTION: THE ADOPTION OF A MODIFIED VARIANT OF THE WESTMINSTER PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM Upon attaining independence on 9 August 1965 after peacefully seceding from the Federation of Malaysia, Singapore retained a legal system that is essentially based on the British legal system, a colonial legacy, importing the common law and the Westminster model of parliamentary government, with some notable modifications, including a written constitution. Article 4 declares that the Constitution “is the supreme law of the Republic of Singapore”; hence any legislation which is inconsistent with the Constitution is void, to the extent of that inconsistency. The Westminster model of representative democracy is predicated on a bipartisan or multi-party system, where the ultimate political check resides in the ability of an opposition party to defeat the incumbent government at general elections and form an alternative government. This check of political turnover is absent in Singapore as the ruling party has a dominant majority in Parliament. B. PRINCIPLES OF CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT Separation of Powers Singapore has a unicameral Parliament which currently has 84 elected seats. 82 of these seats are held by the ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) while the other 2 are held by Chiam See Tong (Singapore People’s Party) and Low Thia Khiang (Worker’s Party). Government is based on a variant of the separation of powers principle, organised around the familiar trichotomy of powers: the legislature, the executive and the judiciary. Unlike the UK Parliament, the Singapore Parliament is a body constituted under, and deriving powers from, the Constitution.

  • Legal Systems in Asean – Singapore Chapter 1 – Historical Overview
    Historical Overview LEGAL SYSTEMS IN ASEAN – SINGAPORE CHAPTER 1 – HISTORICAL OVERVIEW Wendy CHANG Mun Lin* Advocate and Solicitor of Singapore A. INTRODUCTION The foundation of the Singapore legal system is English in origin. This chapter outlines the legal history of Singapore from its founding to the present time and briefly discusses the reception of English law in Singapore. B. SINGAPORE LEGAL HISTORY 1819 – 1866 Singapore was founded by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles of the British East India Company1 in 1819. This is recognised as the starting point of Singapore’s modern legal system.2 That year, Raffles established Singapore as a trading post. Singapore then was largely uninhabited. There were about 150 Malay fishermen under the authority of the Temenggong who was an official of the Johore Sultanate. There were also some Chinese inhabitants.3 In 1824, the Sultan of Johore and Temenggong ceded Singapore to the British.4 The British East India Company thereby acquired full sovereignty in perpetuity over Singapore. Apart from Singapore, Penang and Malacca were also in the possession of the British East India Company. Malacca and Singapore were placed under the Bengal Presidency, while Penang was a separate Presidency5. In 1826, an English Act of Parliament6 was passed to enable the Crown to make provision for the administration of justice in Singapore and Malacca. It also empowered the Directors of the British East India Company to declare Singapore and Malacca to be *The views expressed in this article are that of the author alone.
