Towards a More Comprehensive International Competition Forum

Transnational measures are needed to address the problem of transnational anticompetitive conducts. And, in order to mark out ideas for solutions to the problems of global antitrust policies, we need a truly global competition forum that could embrace all the regions, disciplines and occupational categories relevant to competition policies. Such a forum could provide sufficient input, thorough verification of output and feedback, and opportunities to build consensus for verified output and gain momentum for activating the solutions accepted by the participants. But existing forums for competition policies have fail to meet some of those criteria and, as a consequence, fail to produce a satisfactory output. And many regions, disciplines and occupational categories lack such a forum. Thus this article suggests that we should start filling up the blanks between competition forums and setting up a joint venture to unite these forums into a more comprehensive one, so that we could reach a truly global joint venture among competition forums at the end of the day. And a non‐governmental, Pan‐Asian forum for competition policies could be the cornerstone of a truly global competition forum.
