China Labor Forum 2007

A smaller PRC law firm Trans Asia Lawyers is preparing a major two-day conference on the upcoming labor law in China, their website announces.

Scheduled for the 2nd quarter of 2007 at the Beijing China World Hotel, this 2-day event is intended to facilitate a frank exchange of opinions among senior MOLSS, ACFTU and local officials, representatives of China's leading employers, foreign embassy officials and prominent academics. Simultaneous English translation will be available throughout the event.
The forum will be the first time that senior PRC officials and legislators will appear on the same platform to discuss the new law. It will therefore provide a unique opportunity for attendees to hear authoritative interpretation of the law and to share their own thoughts directly with those individuals.

Essential information like dates and possible entrance fees are not yet given.
