This chapter gives an overview of the law on contract formation and third party beneficiaries in Cambodia. Much of the discussion is tentative since the new Cambodian Civil Code only entered into force from 21 December 2011 and there is little case law and academic writing fleshing out its provisions. The Code owes much to the Japanese Civil Code of 1898 and, like the latter, does not have a requirement of consideration and seldom imposes formal requirements but there are a few statutory exceptions from the principle of freedom from form. For a binding contract, the agreement of the parties is required and the offer must be made with the intention to create a legally binding obligation and becomes effective once it reaches the offeree. The new Code explicitly provides that the parties to the contract may agree to confer a right arising under the contract upon a third party. This right accrues directly from their agreement; it is not required that the third party declare its intention to accept the right.

This chapter discusses the law on third party beneficiaries in Japan; mostly characterized by adherence to the German model that still bears an imprint on Japanese contract law. Thus, there is neither a doctrine of consideration nor any other justification for a general doctrine of privity, and contracts for the benefit of third parties are generally enforceable as a matter of course. Whether an enforceable right on the part of a third party is created is simply a matter of interpretation of the contract which is always made on a case-by-case analysis but there are a number of typical scenarios where the courts normally find the existence (or non-existence) of a contract for the benefit of a third party. In the recent debate on reform of Japanese contract law, wide-ranging suggestions were made for revision of the provisions on contracts for the benefit of third parties in the Japanese Civil Code. However, it turned out that reform in this area was confined to a very limited codification of established case law.

The article analyzes using the normative and systematic methods, as well as analysis and synthesis, the content of the statements of Constitution of the Kyrgyz Republic, Civil Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic «About Normative Legal Acts of the Kyrgyz Republic», the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic «On the Regulations of the Jogorku Kenesh of the Kyrgyz Republic» and the works of the legal scholars. It examined the provisions of laws adopted for general regulation and concludes they are serious problems, because of them there is a "blurring" of the contour of the legislation on legal entities in the article. The publication supports the opinion of the authors of the Concept for Development, according to which the regulation of the status of legal entities in the civil legal field can be characterized by a set of the laws and regula-tions in force in the Kyrgyz Republic, which do not always correspond to each other, as well as to the Civil Code. The low legal and technical level and ineffectiveness in practice are also shown by some adopted laws. It noted the Civil Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, adopted on May 8, 1996, created the new foundation for the regulation of legal entities, which was supplemented by many new laws over the next decades in the article. The authors come to the conclusion the fairly honest assessment can be applied to the established regulation – that with the main vector of development of the Concept of Civil Legislation in Kyrgyzstan, in general, there is an economic, social and well-grounded the logic and generally justifiable modern civil law in relation to legal entities. But at the same time, for many problems, correct solutions have not yet been found and no efficiency ratings have been given.


In the development of material law in Indonesia, it is known both registered objects and unregistered objects that by analogy, registered objects are categorized as immovable objects. In Indonesia, aircraft are being classified as a registered object that can be guaranteed in the form of the mortgage as a debt settlement. Along with the development of law and society, the mortgage regulations are only mentioned briefly in the Indonesian Law of Fiduciary and the Law of Notary Position which state that an aircraft can be guaranteed in the form of a mortgage. However, until recently, any particular regulations regarding aircraft mortgage in Indonesia are not yet available. This research is a normative study that uses historical, statute, and comparison approaches. The problems examined in this study: firstly, how the mortgage as a material guarantee institution in Indonesia is being regulated. Secondly, does the mortgage institution have the potential as an alternative object of material guarantee for aircraft? The result of the study shows that the regulations on aircraft mortgage in Indonesia still refer to the ones in the Indonesian Civil Code. Meanwhile, the institution that has the potential as an alternative object of material guarantee for aircraft is in the form of mortgage because an airplane is a registered object which is analogous to an immovable object. It can be concluded, therefore, that there is a weakness in aircraft mortgage stipulation in Indonesia which may create legal uncertainty and weaken the position of the creditor. Therefore, along with the development of the community and the existence of legal certainty, it is necessary to make an aircraft mortgage law immediately.
