I thought I'd post this useful link in case anybody who reads this blog is interested in the American Bar Association's rule of law projects in Southeast Asia. The ABA's Perspectives from the Field 2009 Update was actually held back in March, but I recently had to find the link again for something I am working on. It contains presentations by ABA staff from Cambodia, Thailand, and the Philippines, as well as a panel on China. Podcasts on all of the sessions are free and easy to download. Here's the link:

Critics agree that much of Southeast Asia desperately needs judicial reform and rule of law. Yet, there is remarkably little comparative scholarship on law and legal institutions in the region. In this blog, I'll follow constitutional developments in Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, East Timor, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, as well as the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
