of Australia, Fiji, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mongolia,

and their governing laws –, was published. This
publication aims to raise the awareness of governments,
NGOs, academicians and the general public as to the value
of these institutions in promoting and protecting human
rights and will contribute to the efforts towards the
establishment of a regional human rights system in the
Asia-Pacific region.

ASEAN
and Human Rights (2003)
ASEAN and Human Rights is a modest attempt to address
a persistent question: “To what extent is ASEAN
supportive of human rights?” The question often
crops up in the course of advocacy efforts of the Working
Group for an ASEAN Human Rights Mechanism to engage ASEAN
governments and peoples on the initiative to establish
an appropriate regional mechanism on human rights.
