Continuing to drive membership of the Chinese chapter of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC), Beijing-based Lawrence Liu also acts as general counsel at China's largest military and civilian integrated system provider, China Electronic System Engineering Corp (CESEC)

Lawrence LiuWhat are the key responsibilities of your role at CESEC, and how does this fit in with the rest of the legal function at the company?

I issue legal opinions and advice to the business leaders and initiate the legal risk management systems. I must be aware of all transactions the company is engaged in including those that might only be in the preliminary stages.
