Abstract

This note aims to provide an outlook on the prospect of China-Panama economic partnership in the following three areas: trade, investment, and civil aviation, which are strategically important to both countries and have been subject to the governance of some aspects of international law. The analysis will take into account both the status of current law (lex lata) and possible development of future law (lex ferenda), especially in light of China's "Belt and Road" Initiative.

Keywords : China, Panama, VCDR, Latin America, Trade, Investment, Civil Aviation
