British Chamber of Commerce in China
The British Chamber of Commerce in China presents:
China’s New Tort Law
In developed countries tort is one of the most significant bodies of law, addressing all civil wrongs that do not arise from contracts. 2010 will see China issue a new law on tort, which will give a completely new platform for litigation against comp...anies or individuals. Not only will there be a stronger legal basis, but there will also be greater social awareness of the right to sue when the law is publicised. (A similar spike in litigation occurred after 1999 when China created its "Contract Law".) This is particularly relevant to foreign invested companies because foreign companies are seen as easy targets by Chinese litigants.
Elements covered will include:
How will the new law change companies’ risk exposure?
What changes will the new law introduce?
Timing, last-minute changes to the draft, and procedure for implementation of the new law.
Who Should Attend?
People working in foreign invested enterprises, particularly entities that have significant brand recognition or extensive operations in China, or who employ large numbers of staff. It will also be useful for legal counsel of foreign invested enterprises in China.

China 2020
What will be the effect of economic reform and prosperity on political ref...orm?
And how can companies operate with moral integrity and ethics in China ?
PANEL DISCUSSION, THURSDAY 4TH JUNE 2009
Chinese society is beset by problems that have a direct impact on its current and future business and political environment, including worker rights, product safety, internet freedom, and the rule of law. Michael A. Santoro will offer a clear-eyed view of the various internal forces – such as regionalism, corruption, and growing inequality – that will determine the direction and pace of economic, social, and political change. Of special interest is Santoro's assessment of the role of multinational corporations in fostering or undermining social and political progress
Professor Santoro will also provide a fresh and innovative way of thinking to two questions that have preoccupied Westerners for decades:
- What will be the effect of economic reform and prosperity on political reform?
- How can companies operate with moral integrity and ethics in China ?
Professor Santoro unifies these hitherto separate questions and demonstrates that moral integrity (or lack of it) by Western business will have a profound impact on whether economic privatization and growth usher in greater democracy and respect for human rights.
