Law Society Annual Conference 2003

The Law Society Annual Conference 2003 was a premier gathering organized by the Law Society of Hong Kong, bringing together legal professionals from across the Asia-Pacific region. This event served as a platform for presidents of law associations and bar associations to discuss matters of mutual concern and to strengthen regional cooperation within the legal community.

Key topics addressed during the conference included the impact of globalization on legal practice in Asia, regulation of professional conduct, legal education, and continuing professional development. Additionally, discussions were held on corruption and related issues in law enforcement, with a visit to the Independent Commission Against Corruption to meet the Commissioner and engage in dialogue on these critical matters.

The conference featured networking opportunities, including meetings with the Chief Justice, the acting Secretary for Justice, and the Secretary for Constitutional Affairs. A highlight of the event was the sponsorship of the POLA Cup at Happy Valley, symbolizing the unity and collaborative spirit of the participating legal associations.

This conference was ideal for legal professionals seeking to engage with peers from the Asia-Pacific region, gain insights into pressing legal issues, and contribute to the advancement of the legal profession through shared knowledge and experiences.
