INTRODUCTION
The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has wreaked havoc on the U.S. economy. In response, the U.S. government has taken extensive measures to stabilize and stimulate the economy. The most recent such measure is a piece of legislation delivering an economic rescue package, the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act” (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act was passed by both Houses of Congress last week and was signed into law by President Trump on March 27, 2020.

The Foreign Investment Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “Foreign Investment Law”) that issued last year came into effect on January 1, 2020 together with the supporting Regulations for the Implementation of the Foreign Investment Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “Implementation Regulations”). Upon its taking effect, the Foreign Investment Law repealed the three fundamental laws which previously regulated foreign-invested enterprises (“FIEs”) in China – the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Sino-foreign Equity Joint Ventures (the “Equity Joint Ventures Law”), the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Sino-foreign Contractual Joint Ventures (the “Contractual Joint Ventures Law”) and the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprises (collectively referred to as the “Three Laws governing FIEs”), together with their corresponding implementation regulations and detailed implementation rules, were repealed thereafter. As a result, the relevant provisions on corporate governance and control in the Three Laws governing FIEs no longer apply. Continue Reading Why not Use the Time of Telework to Amend the AOA of FIEs?

Key Contract: Adrian Perkins Justin McDonnell Intan Eow
While medical researchers across the world race to develop a vaccine to the COVID-19 virus, lawyers and corporate clients are testing for vulnerabilities to trade and other restrictions imposed by governments to mitigate against the spread of COVID-19. What if I cannot meet my contractual obligation to import or export goods to or from China? What if travel restrictions mean I cannot meet certain contractual deadlines?

《海关法》是进出境活动应当遵循的基本法律规范。现行《海关法》于2000年全面修订并确立了现在的主要监管制度，2001年1月1日起施行，到2020年已经是第20个年头。随着国务院机构改革后出入境检验检疫职责并入海关，以及近年来海关基于简政放权和高效监管推行的一系列业务改革和制度创新，很多方面已经突破了《海关法》的现有规定，《海关法》的再次“大修”也提上了议事日程。 Continue Reading 借《海关法》“大修”之际 展望中国海关进出口监管制度的发展趋势（上）
