Professor Bian Yongmin, Deputy Dean of the Law w88 casino, participated in the seminar, and in the second stage of the seminar, he spoke on the benefits, difficulties and challenges of small, medium and micro enterprises participating in online dispute resolution.
Professor Bian Yongmin believes that the APEC Collaborative Framework for Online Dispute Resolution of Cross-Border Business-to-Business Disputes developed by the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) will provide a new, efficient and lower-cost dispute resolution method for small, medium and micro traders to resolve cross-border disputes. The dispute resolution quality of the dispute resolution service provider and the execution of the resolution results are the key to the success of this new dispute resolution method. How to introduce this new dispute resolution method to small, medium and micro enterprises and gain their trust and adoption is the work that needs to be done in the future. The Legal Week of the Hong Kong Department of Justice has played a very good role in promoting this method.
The second stage of the discussion was chaired by Mr. Francis Ho, Justice of the Peace, Deputy Director of the Department of w88 and Industry of Hong Kong. Mr. David Dodwell, President of the Hong Kong-Asia Pacific w88 Policy Research Group, and Ms. Atty. Irene D.T. Alogoc, Executive Director of the Office of Alternative Dispute Resolution of the Philippines Department of Justice, participated in the second stage of the speech and discussion.
