CIL organized a Workshop on International Maritimes Crimes: Legal Issues and Prospects for Co-operation in ASEAN on 17-18 January at the Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel in Singapore. The Workshop brought together international experts on the law of sea and transnational crimes, government officials from the 10 ASEAN countries and academics from around the world. The papers and discussions at the Workshop examined whether the current international law framework was adequate to combat serious international maritime crimes such as piracy, ship-hijacking, hostage-taking and maritime terrorism.
