A Hong Kong-headquartered intergovernmental mediation body has successfully settled an infrastructure dispute in Malaysia and received โmore than a dozenโ inquiries, its head has revealed on the organisationโs first anniversary.
Teresa Cheng Yeuk-wah, secretary general of the International Organisation for Mediation (IOMed), told a reception marking the bodyโs first anniversary that it had wrapped up a case on Tuesday and was handling another.
โOur ambition is not simply to build a successful institution, but to foster a culture where mediation becomes a natural and trusted choice to resolve international disputes,โ Cheng said.
