We are excited to announce the expansion of our network with the opening of a new office in Shenzhen. This strategic move not only strengthens our presence in Asia but also enhances our capabilities to serve our clients in one of the most dynamic economic zones in the world. The Shenzhen office will be fully operational in Q4 2024. It will complement and support the work we are already doing in Shanghai, Singapore and across Southeast Asia. Located in Qianhai, the Shenzhen office will be led by Kian Heong Hew, who has more than 30 years of international experience, particularly in representing major Chinese and international firms in arbitration, litigation and mediation. He will be supported by Tianyu MA, Andrew Lin, and Chengdong “C.D.” Xing, who bring a wealth of experience in international construction and advising on complex projects and high-stakes arbitrations across various sectors and jurisdictions. Loh Yong Hui, construction and projects partner, and David Isidore Tan, dispute resolution partner, currently of the Singapore office will also relocate to join the Shenzhen office. We have also welcomed Shilin Huang, a seasoned Taiwanese lawyer in dispute resolution, who brings over 30 years of experience and a deep understanding of Taiwan’s legal landscape, to support Chinese mainland and Taiwan-based firms looking to expand into Southeast Asia. Set for an official launch in early Q4, our Shenzhen team will collaborate with our lawyers across the Rajah & Tann Asia network, including those in the Singapore-based Greater China practice, to offer seamless and comprehensive legal solutions to our clients. We look forward to the opportunities this expansion brings and the synergies it will create across our network. We invite you to celebrate this milestone with us and to stay tuned for more updates on our Shenzhen office.

We are proud to share that Rajah & Tann Singapore is the only law firm recognised as a Champion of Good 2024 by the NVPC - Towards a City of Good. The firm stands among 78 organisations who received the highest recognition under the new Company of Good (COG) Recognition System. “We are honoured to have been recognised for our efforts in contributing our expertise and resources to support our community. As a purpose-driven firm, we are a part of a larger ecosystem, and we are responsible to do good for our community because that is the right thing to do.

To qualify as a Champion of Good, organisations undergo a rigorous evaluation by an inter-agency judging panel on corporate purpose, policies and practices, quantitative indicators and target setting across the People, Society, Governance, Environment and Economic dimensions, and level of engagement with external stakeholders. The judging panel is led by the NVPC and the Singapore Business Federation and consist of representatives from National Council of Social Service (NCSS), Singapore Institute of Directors, Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF) and UN Global Compact Network Singapore. A national recognition initiative under NVPC’s COG strategy, the COG system aims to recognise the contributions of organisations in Singapore for their commitment to corporate purpose and impact. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our team, clients, and partners who have supported our journey towards this achievement. Together, we will continue to champion good causes and contribute to a more inclusive and sustainable future. #CSR #RajahTannFoundation #RajahTannAsia #RTA #LawyersWhoKnowAsia #LWKA #ChampionOfGood #COGConferment #COGConferment2024 #CompanyofGood #CorporatePurpose #socialresponsibility #philanthropy #legal #law #lawyer
