ALSA (Asian Law Students' Association), a non-political association, is a newly rising student organization with great developmental potentiality, and its influence in Asian law students is ever growing. Now, ALSA is composed of 10 membership countries and regions, including China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia and so forth.

With the rapid development of modern scientific technology and the accelerate progress of globalization, international cooperation in the area of law is taking place more frequently and the wishes to communicate between law students from different countries are growing stronger and stronger as well. Hence, some of the outstanding law students gathered and established ALSA in order to provide an international platform for the law students, with various sense of value about politics, religion, morality and ethics all over Asia, to communicate their ideas about law and other fields of knowledge.

The Asian Law Students' Association Japan(ALSA Japan) is a non-profit, non-government, non-religious student organization. ALSA Japan was established in 1996, December 22nd after the visit of The European Law Students' Association and the Euro-Japan Law Students' Conference held in November of the same year. To achieve mutual understanding between Asian countries with various history and cultural backgrounds, we are conducting academic activity, cultural exchanges, and practical interactions with students in and outside Japan through the free position as a student, and the universality and diversity of law. At present, we have 5 Local Chapters, and a total of 180 members.
