Dear colleagues, dear friends,

The UIA invites you on a wonderful, journey next year: we

will be heading to Macau and you will not want to miss this

congress which promises to be exceptional in many ways.

Our congress will be taking place in China for the very first

time! This is not a bit surprising since we all know that the

world’s centre of gravity is slowly shifting to Asia in the 21st century.

Macau, administered by Portugal for over 400 years, reverted to being part of China on

December 20, 1999, but the Portuguese influence has remained.

Both Cantonese and Portuguese are thus spoken there, and the legal and judicial system

based on the Portuguese model falls within the civil or continental law system.

The Macau peninsula, a territory made up of two islands, gathers a population of over

half a million inhabitants, with a higher density than those of Monaco and Singapore.

The economy is based on textiles, the production of fireworks, toys and electronics;

however Macau has become the main global centre of the gaming industry, on the same

level as Las Vegas since 2005, thanks to the gambling sector and tourism.

Around 30 million tourists choose Macau as a travel destination. You will belong to those

coming to discover the unique character of Macau, combining Chinese and Portuguese

cultures, such as the A-Ma temple, the Macau Tower, the Nobre de Carvalho bridge and

numerous historical sites registered as Unesco World Heritage Sites since 2005.

You will also discover a friendly and welcoming population: Chinese, Portuguese and

those combining both ancestries whom we call the Macanese people.

But above all you will come to meet UIA colleagues, regular congress participants or

newcomers, and to work on the topic: “Corruption and the lawyer”.

Each UIA congress is a key event; in a rapidly changing world the Macau congress

promises to be a major meeting to exchange ideas on the state of the world and our

profession, to meet old friends and make new ones, and to leave with wonderful

memories.

In addition, late October is the best season of the year and you will be able to organize

a trip to Hong Kong or mainland China before or after the congress.

Along with the UIA team, I look forward to welcoming you all, enthusiastic and

numerous, in Macau in October 2013.

Jean-Marie BURGUBURU

UIA President

Dear colleagues, dear friends,

For the first time in its history the UIA is organizing

its annual congress in China. This represents not

only a shift in geographical longitude, but also

recognition of the importance of the East and the

Far East in today’s world.

Since December 20, 1999, Macau has been a Special Administrative Region of

the People’s Republic of China with a high degree of autonomy, which

translates into Macau's enjoying its own executive, legislative and judicial

powers, its own customs, government departments under its own Executive

and its own currency – the Pataca (MOP) – while its defense and foreign affairs

are handled by the Central Government.

Macau is located within the Pearl River Delta, 60 km from Hong Kong and 110 km

from Guangzhou. The industrial importance of Guangdong, together with the

large waterborne traffic served by the harbors of Macau and Hong Kong, makes

this one of the most dynamic commercial zones in the world.

With the liberalization of the gaming industry since 2002, Macau enjoys

unprecedented economic development. Gaming, together with tourism, leisure

and services, are the economic activities which contribute the most to its

economy. Thanks to this dynamic, Macau currently has practically no

unemployment (2% in September 2012), nor any big social gap between rich

and poor. The GDP per inhabitant is around USD 66,000.

Member of the UIA since 1996, the Macau Lawyers Association (AAM),

Professional Public Association by the 1991 law, regulates discipline and the

profession. Although Macau is a Special Administrative Region, its lawyers’

organizations are totally independent.

The congress in Macau is thus a unique opportunity to meet with lawyers from

all over the Far East.

Welcome to Macau!

Jorge NETO VALENTE

President of the 2013 congress

CommitteesUIA presentation

LEGAL PROJECTS

The UIA commissions and working groups examine a host of legal fields falling under Business Law, General Practice and Human Rights .Each commission looks at developments in its discipline and determines in which way they affect or are affected by other legal sectors . Consequently, all the UIA commissions collaborate with each other and offer together several international training seminars every year .

At its annual congress, the UIA commissions hold their working sessions . They produce high quality reports which are placed at the disposal of all the association’s members and congress delegates .

Since 2011, the UIA offers advanced training courses in various areas of the law or on the new professional techniques . These training courses, provided by senior experts, enable lawyers wanting to improve their skills to acquire the essential tools to do so . The 2013 programme includes: International Arbitration, Mediation, Management of Law Firms, Human Rights, etc .

PROTECTION OF LAWYERS AND HUMAN RIGHTS

Wherever in the world the right to defence may be threatened, the UIA gets mobilised so as to provide assistance to lawyers who are unable to practice their profession freely .

En 2012, in particular, it followed cases in Colombia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, etc .

It has enjoyed a special consultative status vis-à-vis the European Council and since 1971 vis-à-vis the United Nations .

Finally, the UIA attends the sessions of the Assembly of States Parties to the International Criminal Court and is a member of the International criminal Bar's Executive Council .

BRINGING TOGETHER THE WORLD'S LAWYERS

For over 85 years, the Union Internationale des Avocats (UIA - International Association of Lawyers) has been defending the legal profession and stimulating international contacts, cooperation and exchange of knowledge among lawyers, while respecting their cultural and professional diversity .

An association open to all law professionals, the UIA is the only international association of lawyers to:◗ Promote the fundamental principles of the legal profession and the development of legal sciences in all legal fields at the international level .◗ Contribute to the professional growth of its members through the exchange of information in forums established by its commissions and working groups .◗ Intervene frequently all over the world in favour of lawyers who have either been imprisoned or are being persecuted for practising their profession .

Today, the UIA brings together several thousand members and hundreds of bars, federations and associations spread out in over 110 countries .

Corruption and the lawyer

Ever since the OECD Convention was signed in 1997, the fight against international corruption has been a major issue for the international community, like the fight against money laundering beginning in the 1990s. As a result, a convention against corruption was signed by the United Nations in 2004 (the Merida convention), and since 2010 the fight against corruption has been a G20 priority.The United States are at the forefront of this movement, and have developed a myriad of techniques (from self-reporting to whistle-blowing) that lead to extraordinary sanctions against corporations and their managers and employees.The new presidency of the People’s Republic of China has made fighting against corruption one of the major points of its political agenda.The whole world is mobilised on this subject, especially in Asia, which requires corporations to implement costly compliance programmes. Some countries impose such measures by law. Victims of corruption also seek compensation in courts: countries (Taiwan, Nigeria, Tunisia, and Trinidad and Tobago), losing bidders, associations of victims ("ill-gotten gains" case). Arbitration also regularly confronts these issues (arbitrability, public policy statutes, friendly arbitration). Lawyers stand at the crossroads of this worldwide movement, sometimes as counselors, and unfortunately also as the targets of investigations. The fight against corruption is an inevitable topic for lawyers. 1 - The international environment 2 - What is happening in Asia? What are the consequences for economic players? 3 - American investigation and prosecution techniques. 4 - Internal investigations, are there any safeguards? 5 - Corporate compliance programmes. 6 - Inadequate compliance programmes: what are the sanctions? 7 - Who can seek redress and how? 8 - Corruption and arbitration 9 - Lawyers’ advice to their clients. 10 - Risks for lawyers 11 - Concluding remarks

The International Bar Leaders Senate is a place for discussion and exchange of views between Bar Leaders,Bar Presidents and representatives of national and international lawyers' organisations,

who meet together to reflect upon developments in Law, Legal practice and Ethics.

Cloud computing: benefits and dangers. Are the fundamental values of the profession under threat?

The legal profession is currently facing new challenges.First, the profession, which has become globalised, open and modern, is permanently in competition with other professionals. Can it avoid using new technologies?

Secondly, authorising or prohibiting the use of technologies such as cloud computing in the legal profession is not possible without in-depth analysis of the benefits and dangers.

Can this use be controlled? If so, under which conditions and how?

How can Bar Associations, after adopting all appropriate security measures, ensure that lawyers comply with all their professional and regulatory obligations, in particular attorney-client privilege and client data protection?

These issues will be the focus when Bar Association Chairs, Law Society and Professional Association Presidents meet for discussion at the International Bar Leaders Senate meeting in Macau.

Real Estate Law

◗ Cross-border debt recovery: How to secure freezing orders, the attachment of bank accounts and other protective measuresThe economic downturn has increased the occurrence of insolvency by companies and the need of creditors to pursue their claims to collect debts. When parties involved are based in different countries, it is essential to avail from measures efficiently enabling creditors to freeze the debtor’s assets located abroad.This session will discuss worldwide attachment measures, including freezing orders available in various jurisdictions, as well as the recent European Commission’s proposal of a regulation

on creating a European Account Preservation Order. Are these measures protective enough for creditors? Are they easily enforceable in a legal system different from the one where they have been issued?

◗ Open public procurement markets: The interplay betweenpublic procurement tools and competition law against corruption and for more transparency

◗ Arbitration in AsiaThe session will focus on arbitration in Asia, with four panels featuring arbitral institutions and leading experts in the field of arbitration in this region.The first panel will be devoted to institutional arbitration in Asia, examining the practice and rules of four institutions. Topics to be covered will include joinder of parties, consolidation of proceedings, emergency arbitrators and interim measures, expedited proceedings, case management, confidentiality, scrutiny of award and costs. Panel two will look at arbitration in China, examining proceedings in China from several different angles, covering both the legal framework and difficulties that arise in practice.

Panel three will examine issues arising in connection with the enforcement of arbitral awards in Asia.Panel four will focus on current issues in investment arbitration in Asia.

◗ From Beijing, Vancouver and London to Sochi 2014 and Rio 2016The Olympic Games are the most important sport event in the world. Besides the huge logistical needs, their organisation requires legal consideration at all times, in view of the number of issues and disputes that may arise.

This session will address certain legal aspects surrounding the Olympic Games, such as the choice of the host city, the infrastructures (project finance), issues of sponsoring and TV rights, as well as the disputes brought before the ad hoc Division of the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

◗ Made in Asia: How to deal with manufacturing agreements in Asia Over the last 20-plus years, the Asian market has become one of the most crucial levers for global growth. Western investors seek to develop long-lasting relationships with Asian partners to capitalise on the attractive Asian cost-structure, while concurrently protecting their know-how and intellectual property, among other rights.In negotiating such manufacturing agreements, however, there are two sides of a mirror. These sides are the result not only of

different economic interests but also of different cultural approaches when doing business. This session will bring together Asian and Western legal practitioners to jointly discuss the key issues which concern Western and Asian clients alike when dealing with the drafting and negotiation of manufacturing agreements. Topics include choice of law, terms of trade, confidentiality, prevention of “back-dooring” and other circumvention, and possible controlling rights over the manufacturing party.

◗ Ethics in real estateThe purpose of this session is to appraise whether the acceleration of the resort to ethics in real estate is a symptom of the defeat of real estate law. In a second stage, we will consider if the ethical behaviour of the players in the real estate market influences right to ownership or right to use. Deciphering the different systems of ownership: usufruct, bare ownership, time sharing, joint ownership, co-ownership. Seeing the different leasehold systems in action: dwelling lease, commercial lease, administrative emphyteutic lease, ground lease.

International Negotiationfor Lawyers

◗ Negotiating through electronic means - A new challenge for negotiation«Newly available technologies can be powerful negotiating tools that save time and money, but if not managed properly, they also come with some predictable pitfalls, such as misunderstandings and mutual distrust. What’s more, your choice of communication medium is likely to affect the quality of the relationship, the

amount of information shared, and the efficiency of the negotiated agreement.»(in http://www.pon.harvard.edu/daily/business-negotiations/how-to-negotiate-when-youre-literally-far-apart/)

The Futureof the Lawyer

Mergers & Acquisitions / Corporate Law

International Saleof Goods

◗ “The Litigation Gamble”Experienced litigation practitioners will give you valuable insight into the practice of lawyers before courts in various jurisdictions around the world, in particular in Asian countries. We will start by addressing topics and explaining issues in Asian jurisdictions that might be regarded as a surprising or strange by foreign lawyers. Also, mistakes and practices that should be avoided by foreigners in domestic Chinese or Asian litigation will be presented by lawyers from and dealing with Asia. Thereafter, lawyers will report and give you details about spectacular cases in their home countries that you always heard of but never really knew in detail.The session will thereafter focus on gambling, gaming and betting issues. You will also hear “war stories” about gambling litigation. You will no doubt benefit from the wealth of experience of our members.

◗ Future of the profession: Evolution of the status of the lawyer,challenges in the years to comeThis session will deal with the daily concerns of lawyers in the face of regulatory and economic developments that affect the legal profession and its essential values: independence, professional secrecy, conflict of interest rules, and respect for the right to make full answer and defence, in a world in which economic, political and social barriers are falling away, and globalization requires us to think about the best way to promote these essential values.

◗ Rights and obligation of shareholders in listed companiesThe session will discuss the rights of shareholders in listed companies from a number of different perspectives. Transactional related topics include the sale of significant stakes, as well as stake building by third parties. We will highlight the new trends and developments in squeeze-out procedures within the EU and

other relevant jurisdictions. We will also discuss the impact of corporate governance on changes in corporate structures and will, of course, involve Chinese practitioners to discuss these topics from their own perspective.

◗ Contract for the international commercial sale of goods - Principles of contract drafting, common international contract clauses, remedies for breach of contractThe session will focus on the comparative analysis of the main practical problems relating to drafting and performance of the contract for international sale with the aim to identify and provide the optimal solutions to prevent them. In that respect, a special attention is devoted to the principles of international contract drafting, standard clauses and remedies for breach of contract, and a comparative analysis of the rules and principles of the CISG, UNIDROIT Principles and other sources of uniform contract law.

◗ Asia - The new frontier for Art Law and Intellectual Property Law developments: What your clients need to know about the world’s fastest growing economies This session will gather together leading lawyers and other experts to examine and discuss the major issues Asia faces in the art and intellectual property areas, and their effect on the global market, (counterfeit and imitation products and services, fakes and forgeries, software piracy, illicit trafficking in cultural property, plea of title, censorship and the false valuations of imports) and the growth and protection of a local creative economy. It will encourage a spirited dialogue on how these issues can be resolved through local and international measures including alternate dispute resolution.

◗ Asset preservation. A young man, aged 25, goes on holiday to Macau and ends up winning € 10,000,000.He is reluctant to go home because he does not want to tell his parents and his (soon to be ex!) wife/girlfriend that he has come into so much money.Please answer the following questions, from the point of view of the law of your country:

1. What options/procedures are available to the young man, if he wants to protect his newly-acquired assets from his parents and girlfriend/wife:a - During his lifetime; andb - On death (from potential beneficiaries)?

2. What options/procedures are available to the young man, if he wants to protect his wealth, including his newly-acquired assets, from potential creditors?

3. What options/procedures are available to the young man, if he wants to protect himself and his newly-acquired assets, from the taxman?

◗ Chinese investments abroad and foreign investments in ChinaOur session will consist of presentations regarding foreign investments into and from China made by lawyers from different countries in all continents.In particular, we will focus on the necessity for thorough due diligence before investing in China, and give examples of some of the problems found when investigating the affairs of Chinese companies. There are certainly great opportunities but investors must be careful.

◗ Corruption connecting environmental issues which also affect business and human rights

◗ Biotechnology and neuroscienceNow that the “next big thing” is brain mapping, the question arises as to what we will do with this new knowledge. In this session, we will look at the crossroads of neuroscience based on discovery and technology, the law, and the public order.

Most of the time, it is impossible to prove if the hospital is responsible for the death, because the patient could have already been carrying the germ before entering the hospital.

the victims either by the hospital, its insurance company, the communities, or the patient himself.
