Critics Review
An achievement of the first rank … I found this book to be a fascinating one. It is not only informative but also thought provoking … it was a veritable Herculean effort on the part of the editors to gather together so many authors from so many diverse jurisdictions. The result is a resource that is probably the first of its kind and which will be not only fascinating to academic scholars but will also guide legal practitioners as well.
– Andrew Phang, Justice of the Court of Appeal, Supreme Court of Singapore * Malayan Law Journal *[T]his book will be gratefully received by academics and practitioners working on cross-border trust issues. Overall, this book is a valuable contribution to the comparative law literature on trusts law in the Asia-Pacific and it certainly fills a lacuna … [An] excellent, high quality and ambitious first volume of a new book series. All serious trusts scholars and practitioners who are interested in how the trust works in the Asia-Pacific should have this volume on their bookshelves. – Hang Wu Tang, Singapore Management University, Singapore * Asia Pacific Law Review *
There is a wealth of useful material here that practitioners will benefit from reading. Overall, this book deserves top marks. – Michael Olesnicky * Trust Quarterly Review *
