However, many other dispute resolution centres elsewhere are emerging or aspiring to be a dominant player. Hear representatives from the various dispute resolution institutions in Singapore (SICC, SIAC, SCMA, SIMC and SMC) introduce and explain recent innovations to enhance the quality of their dispute resolution process and make the dispute resolution process more user friendly.
