| description | Mediation is a part of the alternative dispute resolution (ADR) process which is an alternative to litigation
in the court proceeding. It is both informal and flexible dispute resolution in which the parties are free to participate
in the process and come out with an amicable settlement. Mediation is an option for the disputants to reach a mutual
agreement before the matter is brought to the court. The mediation process is speedy and the limitation of mediation
award depends on kinds of disputes. The objectives of mediation are to reach an agreement to the dispute according
to the needs and interests of the parties, to prepare the participants to accept the consequence of their decision and
to reduce of the anxiety and other negative effects by assisting the participants to reach a consensual agreement.
Mediation also helps to improve the relationship between the parties and is effective if the parties have a continuing
relationship such as neighbours, family or business people. There are certain rules that have been enacted to govern
matters concerning mediation and certain bodies are responsible to provide mediation services. This paper will
analyse the implementation of mediation in Malaysia. The discussion will also include the process of mediation as
provided under the existing regulations.
