SG and HK judiciaries ink MOU on family justice system cooperation

The MOU will streamline access to justice for both jurisdictions.

The Family Justice Courts of Singapore (FJC) and the Hong Kong Courts signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to enhance bilateral judicial cooperation promoting the administration of family justice on 15 March 2024.

Under the MOU, Singapore and Hong Kong will exchange knowledge and experiences on the management of cases in family courts and the use of technology in the administration of family justice.

The two countries will also jointly work on the training of judges and officers in family courts, development of family law and procedures, and the role of mediation in facilitating settlements in family cases. 

In addition, the MOU will also allow both jurisdictions to explore specific bilateral initiatives to facilitate judicial learning and make justice accessible to families in both countries.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
