Alternative dispute resolution (“ADR“) has become an important way to resolve various types of disputes outside of the court system in Cambodia. The National Commercial Arbitration Centre (NCAC) handles commercial disputes through arbitration and mediation, while the Arbitration Council resolves labour disputes. Additionally, various government institutions also settle disputes within their respective areas of authority. For example, the Telecommunication Regulator of Cambodia is the exclusive body that mediates telecommunications disputes between operators and between operators and subscribers.
Recently, a new government-run dispute settlement institution called the National Authority for Alternative Dispute Resolution (“NADR“) has been established to provide mediation and conciliation services. This article will provide an overview of NADR and chart its current status and future development.
