世新大學傑出校友拜訪本會吳理事長Visit of SHU Distinguished Alumni to CAA Chairman Wu


本(112)年6月7日上午,華生水資源公司胡端園董事長、凱創實業公司許文南董事長、源創國際整合公司邵鴻總經理、美國上海商會朱梅生執行總裁、群義房屋廖堃耀總經理、張德偉製作人及世新校友總會吳祥山秘書長等7位世新大學傑出校友,一同前來本會拜訪吳永乾理事長,針對仲裁機制請益。吳理事長甫於去年8月卸任世新大學校長,與來賓皆熟識,互動熱烈,交流氣氛輕鬆融洽。

吳理事長扼要說明仲裁相較於法院訴訟具有快速、經濟的特性,且當事人得選任仲裁人;對於複雜、具專業性、講求時效的爭議,尤其適合透過仲裁解決。此外,仲裁程序具保密性,仲裁程序及判斷原則上不公開,可避免外界捕風捉影、斷章取義,導致當事人承受不必要的輿論壓力。

針對來賓有關仲裁判斷效力的提問,吳理事長指出依仲裁法,仲裁判斷與法院確定判決有同一效力,且不得上訴,即使當事人向法院提起撤銷仲裁判斷之訴,其事由僅以仲裁程序具重大瑕疵等非法律適用問題為限。因此,仲裁確實為有效的紛爭解決方式。吳理事長進一步提醒,仲裁必須當事人雙方有合意才可進行,因此建議於簽署合約時就納入仲裁條款,避免爭議發生後契約相對人不同意仲裁,而僅能循訴訟途徑解決。又本會為國內案件管理經驗最豐富、體制最完備的仲裁機構,建議納入本會示範條款。

吳理事長最後表示,也歡迎各來賓所屬的企業加入協會會員,以更深入瞭解訴訟外紛爭解決機制之發展。

On June 7, 2023, a group of distinguished alumni from Shih Hsin University (SHU) visited Chairman Wu of the CAA in order to gain learn more about arbitration. The visiting group consisted of many distinguished individuals, including Mr. Tuan-Yuan Hu, Chairperson of Hwa Seng Bottle Water Corp., Mr. Wen-Nan Hsu, Chairperson of Creata Corp., Mr. Hong Shao, CEO of Origin Vision International Co. Ltd., Mr. Mei-Sheng Chu, CEO of the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, Mr. Kun-Yao Liao, CEO of Chunyi Real Estate Agency, Broadcast Program Producer Mr. Te-Wei Chang, and Mr. Hsiang-Shan Wu, Secretary General of the SHU Alumni Association. Having recently stepped down from his role as SHU principle in August of last year, Chairman Wu shared a familiar connection with the guests, turning the occasion into a joyful reunion.

During the meeting, Chairman Wu explained to the guests why arbitration is more efficient and cost-effective compared to litigation. He highlighted that in arbitration, the parties involved have the opportunity to appoint arbitrators, making it particularly suitable for disputes involving industrial know-how that require timely resolution. Additionally, arbitral proceedings and awards are conducted in a private and confidential manner, protecting parties from potentially biased public opinion influenced by inaccurate media reports and articles.

Addressing the issue of enforceability, Chairman Wu elaborated on the provisions of the Taiwan Arbitration Law. He emphasized that arbitral awards carry the same legal force as final judgments from courts and are not subject to appeal. An application to set aside the award would only be accepted in the presence of significant procedure defects, and not in matters related to the application of law. Chairman Wu further emphasized that since the adoption of arbitration relying on the parties' agreement, he suggested that an arbitration clause in contracts should be included in advance. Without such an agreement, if a dispute arises and either party opposes arbitration, the dispute would need to be settled through litigation. Given that the CAA is the most experienced and comprehensive arbitral institution in Taiwan, Chairman Wu recommended that the guests consider adopting the CAA's arbitration model clause.

Towards the end of the visit, the guests were invited to join the CAA membership and so as to explore further insights into the development of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms.
