This article stems from a series of recent lectures entitled The Quantity Surveyor as Expert Witness delivered in Hong Kong and Singapore and a talk given at the 39th Convention of the International Federation of Asian and Western Pacific Contractors’ Associations (IFAWPCA) held in Hong Kong in November 2011. It also builds upon a previous article published in Asian Dispute Review in January 20101. It is written in the context of increasingly vociferous complaints about experts and recent changes and demands in the expectations of courts and arbitral tribunals in the UK and in Asia.
