Construction Law Seminarat the Beijing Arbitration Commission Risk management of foreign law 国际建筑法研讨会—于北京仲裁委员会 外国法的风险管理 Introduction (1) A national project with national material, people, know how and law has no risk of foreign law. The global world in which we live is different. Where ever we use the business opportunities of international construction projects, we must cope with a risk of foreign law.

It comes from a different culture, political, social and economic background. It may contain different concepts which you do not know.
