Assembled across several years, Letters of the Law: An Anthology is a collection of letters written by each author to their younger selves—from those at the top of the legal chain to students just starting out. Tender and at times unrelenting, each letter foregrounds delicate anxieties and fears together with hopes and aspirations, and bridges the gap between each author’s present and future—surfacing a curiously inevitable sense of encouragement and reassurance when read and re-read.
This book is meant for those who feel like they’re running on empty, those who just need a respite mid-race, and those of every shade in between. The stories within these pages are not a solution, but a first step in exploring the vulnerability of someone else and, hopefully, discovering your own.
Some of the most architecturally-beautiful buildings in Singapore were purpose built for law enforcement.
This book aims to tell a brief history of these buildings through the use of photos, architectural drawings and stories told by people who remember what it was like to work or be in these places.

This book is the result of the Rule of Law Symposium that was convened in Singapore in May 2014 to consider the implications of the rule of law for development both in the South-East Asia region and globally. The chapters in this book represent a conversation between senior judges, scholars and lawyers from the worlds of business and private practice. There are four thematic sections, which address: the rule of law and development from a legal and policy perspective; the implications of the rule of law for business and finance; the rule of law in international investment disputes; and judicial reflections from the past or present heads of the Judiciary in England and Wales, Hong Kong and Singapore. The thematic sections are followed by individual contributions from former UN Legal Counsel, Ambassador Patricia O’Brien; Singapore’s Minister for Law and Foreign Affairs, Mr K Shanmugam, and The Honourable Solicitor-General Lionel Yee.
