The positive attitude of Chinese Courts towards AML enforcement

At the beginning of November 2008, Xi Xiaoming, the vice-chief justice of the Chinese Supreme Court, informed the media at a press conference that the Chinese Supreme Court would initiate the drafting of judicial explanations to complement the Chinese Anti-monopoly Law (中华人民共和国反垄断法) (AML). Before such formal expression, another Justice in the No.3 Civil Division of the Chinese Supreme Court publicly stated that plaintiffs may file civil AML cases directly, bypassing the wait for administrative decisions.
