Baker McKenzie and China Eastern Air Holding Company (CEA) recently signed a three-year strategic co-operation framework agreement to expand the partnership between the two to a global scale, as the Chinese airline explores opportunities to build a “Silk Road in the Air”, a corporate strategy in support of China’s Belt and Road initiative.
Under the agreement, Baker McKenzie will provide CEA with legal support and advice on contentious and non-contentious matters. For example, Bee Chun Boo, a partner at Baker McKenzie in Beijing, told China Business Law Journal the law firm would assist CEA with its employment issues arising from CEA’s overseas offices, possible disputes arising overseas and the airline’s overseas investment activities.
The agreement was signed by Guo Junxiu, CEA’s general counsel, and James Colihan, the managing partner at Baker McKenzie‘s New York office, in a ceremony held at the firm’s office in New York.
