First class for "LAW" - The Introduction

What is law? This is the first question asked by my lecturer. Rules and regulations? Controlling of government? The best answer are set of rules from government and set of uniform principles.

In the half way of the class, lecturer had show us a video clip name: Just follow law! Is a Singapore production. Through the video, I realize that "black and white" is quiet important for the government department. Everything must follow the procedures. For example: If you need to add-on a fan for your department, you have to fill in a form request manually / make request by e-mail, then cc to related department, after few days procedure, only can get the "FAN".



Rule and law is different things. Law come with three requirements: enforcing power, rules and sovereignty. And why do we need law? The purpose of a country need law are to keep order in community, to solve disputes and to set up an accepted minimum standard of behavior of people.
These are the social objectives of the "LAW"

There is also have two types of law: public law and private law. Public law included constitutional, administrative and criminals. And private / civil law is included contract, tort, property, trusts and family. We will be continue introduce "LAW" on next week class, so please be patient for the waiting!

All About "LAW"

Law is a system of rules, usually enforced through a set of institutions . It shapes politics, economics and society in numerous ways and serves as a primary social mediator of relations between people.

There is much more sampling of law in my mind. For example: Administrative law which is refers to the body of law which regulates bureaucratic managerial procedures and is administered by the executives branch of a government; rather than the judicial or legislative branches. The body of law regulates included international trade, manufacturing, pollution and taxation. These administrative law are common in every country.

In general: a rule of being or of conduct, established by an authority able to enforce its will; a controlling regulation; the mode or order according to which an agent or a power acts.
In morale: the will of God as the rule for the disposition and conduct of all responsible beings toward him and toward each other; a rule of living, conformable to righteousness; the rule of action as obligatory on the conscience or moral nature.
In philosophy and physics: a rule of being, operation, or change, so certain and constant that it is conceived of as imposed by the will of God or by some controlling authority; as, the law of gravitation; the laws of motion; the law heredity; the laws of thought; the laws of cause and effect; law of self-preservation.
In mathematics: the rule according to which anything, as the change of value of a variable, or the value of the terms of a series, proceeds; mode or order of sequence.
In arts, works, games, etc.: The rulet of construction, or of procedure, conforming to the conditions of success; a principle, maxim; or usage; as, the laws of poetry, of architecture, of courtesy, or of whist.

In a nutshell, student like me have different reasons for wanting to study law. Studying law improves our clarity of thoughts, the ability to analyze and express complicated ideas and powers of reasoning. Be it the public sector, commerce, accountancy or financial services, these skills are demands.
