The Asian Law Institute - ASLI
To facilitate academic exchanges as well as research and teaching collaboration among law schools in Asia

The establishment of the Asian Law Institute (ASLI), in March 2003, stems from the recognition that the diversity of legal traditions in Asia creates an imperative for Asian legal scholars to foster greater engagement with each other through collaborative research and teaching.

The acronym "ASLI", which means "indigenous" in the Malay and Indonesian languages, represents the commitment of the thirteen founding institutions to establish a truly home-grown law institute in Asia.

ASLI is physically situated at the Faculty of Law of the National University of Singapore (NUS, Bukit Timah Campus) which provides administrative and financial support for its activities. The Board of Governors, which maps out ASLI’s goals and activities, is chaired by Professor Johannes Chan of The University of Hong Kong. The Deputy Chairperson is Professor Shin- Ichi Ago of Kyushu University. Professor Nik Ahmad Kamal Nik Mahmod of the International Islamic University Malaysia is the immediate past Chairperson of the Board of Governors.
