  • The War on Terrorism and the Internal Security Act of Singapore
    Damien Cheong ____________________________________________________________ Selling Security: The War on Terrorism and the Internal Security Act of Singapore DAMIEN CHEONG Abstract The Internal Security Act (ISA) of Singapore has been transformed from a se- curity law into an effective political instrument of the Singapore government. Although the government's use of the ISA for political purposes elicited negative reactions from the public, it was not prepared to abolish, or make amendments to the Act. In the wake of September 11 and the international campaign against terrorism, the opportunity to (re)legitimize the government's use of the ISA emerged. This paper argues that despite the ISA's seeming importance in the fight against terrorism, the absence of explicit definitions of national security threats, either in the Act itself, or in accompanying legislation, renders the ISA susceptible to political misuse. Keywords: Internal Security Act, War on Terrorism. People's Action Party, Jemaah Islamiyah. Introduction In 2001/2002, the Singapore government arrested and detained several Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) operatives under the Internal Security Act (ISA) for engaging in terrorist activities. It was alleged that the detained operatives were planning to attack local and foreign targets in Singa- pore. The arrests outraged human rights groups, as the operation was reminiscent of the government's crackdown on several alleged Marxist conspirators in1987. Human rights advocates were concerned that the current detainees would be dissuaded from seeking legal counsel and subjected to ill treatment during their period of incarceration (Tang 1989: 4-7; Frank et al. 1991: 5-99). Despite these protests, many Singaporeans expressed their strong support for the government's actions.

  • 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.

  • A Study on Interruptions by the Chairperson in the Dewan Rakyat
    ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE PARLIAMENT OF MALAYSIA: A STUDY ON INTERRUPTIONS BY THE CHAIRPERSON IN THE DEWAN RAKYAT Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Bonn vorgelegt von Nor Azura binti A Rahman aus Johor, Malaysia Bonn 2021 Gedruckt mit der Genehmigung der Philosophischen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn Zusammensetzung der Prüfungskommission: Prof. Dr. Stephan Conermann (Vorsitzende/Vorsitzender) Prof. Dr. Christoph Antweiler (Betreuerin/Betreuer und Gutachterin/Gutachter) Prof. Dr. Claudia Derichs (Gutachterin/Gutachter) Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 26 November 2020 i ABSTRACT The election of the chairman of the House of Representatives, a chamber of the Malaysian parliament, has always been determined by the ruling party. The centralization of executive power has also absorbed the function of the chairman, so that the chairman acts partisanly in parliamentary debates. Also, the chairman has developed into an institution that carries out agenda-setting within the framework of the parliament. This raises the conceptual question of whether legislation in Malaysia is still performed independently by the parliament. The observed patterns require an attempt to re-conceptualize the roles as well as the assigned meaning of various expressions of parliamentary routine, including those that are unwritten and informal, for instance those which can also be termed “subjective forms of rule” at one's own discretion. In my doctoral thesis, I apply an interdisciplinary analytical framework that relates to accountability studies, as well as micro- sociological direct interaction, the interpretations of procedural interactions in conversation, as well as studies of political discretion in parliamentary operations. My main research question asks how the Speaker of Parliament fulfils his responsibilities by disrupting ongoing parliamentary debates.

  • 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.

  • The Role of Public Interest Litigation In
    The Role of Public Interest Litigation in Promoting 58 Good Governance in Malaysia and Singapore (2004) XXXIII No 1 THE ROLE OF PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION IN PROMOTING GOOD GOVERNANCE IN MALAYSIA AND SINGAPORE* ROGER TAN KOR MEE** SUMMARY: In this paper, a two-case study is undertaken on public interest litigation in the promotion of good governance in Malaysia and Singapore. As public interest litigation is a branch of administrative law which involves judicial review of administrative actions, it has a pivotal role to play in an administrative state particularly in the promotion of good governance. Initiated by citizens who may not be directly affected by the administrative acts, such public interest litigants are often frowned upon by the executive as meddlesome busybodies. This makes them a thorn in the executive’s side, and various obstacles were placed in the way by the executive to stymie the growth of public interest litigation. However, it was judicial self-restraint that brought the growth of public interest litigation in Malaysia to a grinding halt. In Government of Malaysia v Lim Kit Siang, the Malaysian Supreme Court took a restrictive approach to the rules of standing. But that does not mean that public-spirited individuals and non-governmental organisations should lose heart. On the contrary, they should persevere and continue to resort to public interest litigation so that it affords an opportunity for the courts to liberalise the current restrictive standing criteria. On the other hand, the absence of public interest litigation in Singapore presupposes that Singapore has a good public administration. Public interest litigation therefore promotes good governance in public administration.

  • The Common Law of Malaysia in the 21St Century”
    (2012) 24 SAcLJ Annual Lecture 2011 1 SINGAPORE ACADEMY OF LAW ANNUAL LECTURE 2011 – “THE COMMON LAW OF MALAYSIA IN THE 21ST CENTURY” The Hon Tun Dato’ Seri ZAKI Tun Azmi Former Chief Justice of Malaysia. I. INTRODUCTION 1 First and foremost I say thank you and express my appreciation to the Right Honorable Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong for inviting me to deliver a talk at this prestigious series of lectures. I must also publicly express my appreciation to the Academy for having arranged my visits to the various places during my stay here. 2 I believe that during the years when I was the Chief Justice, the relationship between the Judiciary and the Bar of Singapore and Malaysia had never been better. To this I must say thank you to Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong. On his suggestion, we formed the annual joint judicial conference which for next year will include Brunei as well. Singapore has also graciously accepted our invitation to attend training and conferences in Malaysia. Likewise Malaysia has done the same in respect of conferences and meetings in Singapore. I am confident that my successor will continue to foster this close relationship and exchanges. 3 When I was asked by Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong to speak on the Common Law of Malaysia in the 21st century, I responded positively without a second thought, thinking it was a straightforward subject. In the course of carrying out my research however, I found out how wrong I had been. In truth, the development of the common law in our jurisdictions is an extensive subject with a multitude of facets.

  • From Waqf, Ancestor Worship to the Rise of the Global Trust: a History of the Use of the Trust As a Vehicle for Wealth Transfer in Singapore
    A14_TANG (DO NOT DELETE) 7/10/2018 5:35 AM From Waqf, Ancestor Worship to the Rise of the Global Trust: A History of the Use of the Trust as a Vehicle for Wealth Transfer in Singapore Tang Hang Wu* ABSTRACT: This Article explores the historical use of the trust in Singapore from the early colonial days to modern times as a means of wealth transfer. English trust law which travelled to Singapore by reason of its colonial past had to be adapted and negotiated by the colonial judges in light of cultural and religious norms worlds away from that found in England. This essay traces three major uses of the trust as a means of wealth transfer in Singapore’s history. First, the trust was used by rich Chinese families for succession purposes which included the promotion of ancestor worship and burial grounds. However, the custom of perpetual ancestor worship ultimately proved to be incompatible with the English law against perpetuities. This irreconcilability, coupled with the fact that the practice of ancestor worship is becoming less common, has meant that such trusts are virtually unheard of these days. Second, the trust was used by wealthy Arab merchants who controlled much of the business and land holdings in Singapore to further succession planning and religious purposes. The popularity of the use of the trust by these Arab traders may be due to the fact that the trust was not an alien concept to them because Muslim law utilizes the concept of the waqf, which is similar to the trust. However, Islamic concepts inherent in the waqf proved to be too discordant with English trust law doctrines for the sustained use of the trust in this context.

    Singapore Journal of Legal Studies [2009] 1–24 THE JOURNEY OF A JOURNAL: 50 YEARS OF THE SINGAPORE JOURNAL OF LEGAL STUDIES Kevin Y.L. Tan∗ I. Introduction Even though the first law schools appeared in Rome around 3 BCE, the modern law school did not appear till the 18th century. In England, even though Sir William Blackstone gave his pioneering series of lectures on English law at Oxford in the 1750s, the systematic instruction of the law in the universities did not develop sig- nificantly till the 19th century. And in America, the first university-based law school was established at William & Mary College in Virginia in 1779.1 With the estab- lishment of law schools came the publishing of law reviews or law journals. The scholarly nature of these publications set them apart from other professional pub- lications by bar associations that typically covered issues encountered in the daily practice of law.2 Law reviews in America and in the United Kingdom developed along very dif- ferent paths. America’s first scholarly law review was The American Law Register, published by Asa Fish and Henry Wharton, two members of the Philadelphia bar in 1852. It contained more scholarly and analytical articles than other journals of its time and was described by Roscoe Pound as the prototype “academic-professional” journal.3 When William Draper Lewis—who was then one of the two editors of the Register—became dean of the University of Pennsylvania Law School, he arranged for the journal to be published by his school because he realised “that an important attribute of a good law school was a law journal.” The first student-edited edition was published in 1896, and in 1908, it was renamed the University of Pennsylvania Law Review and American Law Register.
