In subsequent years, the annual conferences have been held at Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok (2005); East China University of Politics and Law, Shanghai (2006); University of Indonesia, Jakarta (2007); National University of Singapore (2008); University of Hong Kong (2009); International Islamic University of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur (2010); Kyushu University, Fukuoka (2011); National University of Singapore (2012); National Law School of India University, Bangalore (2013); University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur (2014); National Taiwan University, Taipei (2015); Peking University Law School, China (2016); University of Philippines, College of Law, Manilla (2017), Seoul National University, School of Law (2018), National University of Singapore Faculty of Law (2019), National Law University, Delhi (2020), Universitas Pelita Harapan, Indonesia (2021), The University of Tokyo, Graduate Schools for Law and Politics (2022) and National University of Singapore Faculty of Law (2023).

ASLI welcomes academics and intellectuals from within and outside Asia to present papers. The conference is also open to all who would want to attend without presenting a paper. We encourage individuals to use the conference as a platform for scholars interested in Asia-related legal issues to come together and exchange ideas, as well as to form close working and personal relationships.

Chulalongkorn University Faculty of Law will host the 21^st ASLI Conference in May 2024. We look forward to welcoming you on Wednesday 29^th and Thursday 30^th May 2024.
