Association (ALSA). Globalization era, International trade and the rapid improvement of information technology as the mean of even a wider cooperation among Asian countries have motivated both associations, ASEANS law Students'network to the scope of the region of Asian countries. Therefore, by an agreement that was signed on 7th September 2002 in the Forum that was held by the Asian law Students’ Association (Japan, Korea, Taiwan) was performed into one single association. As a result, it was agreed that such Tokyo Agreement have birth to a new international law students association representing all law students around Asia, under the name of the ASIAN LAW STUDENTS’ ASSOCIATION (ALSA). Such agreement was taken into force by the Bangkok Agreement that was signed in the ALSA Conference, Bangkok, Thailand on 23rd October 2003 ~ along with the enrollment of China and Hong Kong as the members.
