Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia gathers the Chief Justices and senior judges of the supreme and constitutional courts of Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, Brunei and Timor-Leste. The region's courts range from Singapore's internationally cited common law bench to Indonesia's post-Suharto Constitutional Court and the Philippines' Supreme Court, each shaped by its own distinct colonial legal inheritance and modern constitutional history.
