The Philippine Star
|November 04, 2024

There is one standout - Singapore - which ranked 16th overall in this year's Rule of Law Index drawn up by the World Justice Project. The Philippines, at 99th spot among 142 states and jurisdictions, again lagged behind the other original ASEAN founding members Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, and even latecomer Vietnam.
