Majesty of law as weapon

Supreme Court Associate Francis Jardeleza speaks on “Borders and Cross-Border Enforcement” in a symposium organized by the Harvard International Law Journal at the Harvard Law School  in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Justice Jardeleza, who finished his Master of Laws at HLS, addressed the faculty, fellow HLS alumni, legal experts on cross-border issues and cases, and friends of HLS.  Jardeleza presented the Philippines’ position on the country’s current territorial dispute with China. The Justice said, we have “the majesty of the law” as a mighty weapon. Seated at his right is Vice Dean William Alford, who was Jardeleza’s batchmate in the 1977 Harvard Law Class.
