discussion 1
Real property is something like land and everything permanently fixed to the land, such as trees, house, and the minerals or quarries below the ground. The primary characteristic of real property is indestructibility and immobility. Intellectual property is a personal property such as patents, copyrights, and trademarks. The two main features of the intellectual property include all rights relating to artistic, literary, and scientific work. It involves the inventions of all fields related to human behavior. Personal Property is mainly acquired via a few basic methods such as manufacture, purchase, or gift and in some cases through the found property. The two main characteristics of the personal property are intangible and tangible.
Owners of personal, real, and intellectual property are treated differently since they do not have the same rights according to the law for many reasons such as the nature of the property, allocation of federal or state jurisdiction, and the development of law in each section. Although all properties are protected each of them is under some types of laws. Each property is protected to suit the kind of property. For example, Trademarks is treated differently from the ownership of a vehicle. Trademarks are usually related to business while the vehicle is personal ownership meaning any issues that may arise would be treated differently.
Real property can be transferred from one owner to another as they wish as they have legal protection of real property transfer under the law. A real property owner chooses the individuals they want to sell the property to using verbal or written contract under the legal contract law, which protects both parties. Due to the legal backing when selling the real property the society is able to continue with the flow of peoples’ lives without extra headaches involved. Personal property is protected under the personal and business property. The owners have the right to protect his or her property under legal law. Intellectual property can be quickly taken, but the law acts in favor of the owner. If no laws protecting intellectual property, people would be afraid to create or innovate new things, which significantly benefits society. People a peace of mind when they know the law will protect their ideas and have freedom of creating new items for the benefit of society.
discussion 2
List two characteristics each of real, intellectual, and personal property.
Real Property
According to Rogers (2012) real property “includes land and all that is attached to it” (Sec. 11.3). This means that the actual property and any structure that is built on the property is considered real property. Also included in this property is any mineral or deposits below the ground that lie within the boundaries of the property.
Intellectual Property
This type of property consists of copyrights, trademarks and patents. Inventors will copyright or patent their ideas to keep others from reproduc ...

The Corporate Social Responsibilities of Financial Institutions for the Condu...Larry Catá Backer
Abstract: Corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be split along two distinct lines. The first touches on the nature of corporate personality and is rooted in domestic law regulating enterprises specifically and legal persons generally. The second touches on the nature of the rights of individuals and is rooted in international law (and sometimes domestic constitutional law) defining the scope of the human rights of individuals and the consequential obligations of states and legal persons. Both conversations intertwine though they tend to operate autonomously. In both cases, however, the traditional focus of corporate responsibility has focused on the relationship between an operating company and its direct effects on individuals, society and the environment. That discussion remains contentious, conflicted and unresolved. But it ignores a critical actor—the financial institutions which provide operating capital to enterprises. This paper considers the corporate social responsibilities of financial institutions, including sovereign wealth funds, for the conduct of their borrowers. The focus will be the extent of any duty or responsibility of lenders to ensure that their borrowers comply with CSR obligations (or alternatively conforms to international human rights standards) as a core aspect of their own CSR obligations (or alternatively) of their responsibility to respect human rights. Section II examines the general regulatory framework. There are two aspects that are relevant. The first is to understand the scope and character of the legal norms that may be applied to enterprises generally with respect to their operation’s that might be understood as CSR-human rights related in nature. The second is to consider the range of non-legal normative governance rules that might apply. In the process it will be important to distinguish between a CSR based regulatory approach and a human rights based approach. Section III considers the application of these norms to financial institutions. This requites distinguishing between those obligations that apply to the internal operations of financial institutions generally, and those obligations that apply to the financial institution’s obligations with respect to its lending activities, that is with respect to its relationship with its borrowers. The essay ends with a brief examination of recent cases in which financial institutions undertook such a responsibility, and the ways in which that obligation was undertaken. Three different types of institutions are considered—private banks, sovereign wealth funds and international financial institutions (IFIs). The paper ends with a preliminary consideration of the consequences of this movement for domestic CSR in the U.S.

Synopsis On Annual General Meeting/Extra Ordinary General Meeting With Ordinary And Special Businesses And Ordinary And Special Resolutions with Companies (Postal Ballot) Regulations, 2018
In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
1. The Need to Study
Philippine Tourism Laws
There has been a moment that in one part
of our lives, we became travelers or
tourists. This is the reason why studying
tourism laws is imperative because this
will definitely benefit you, in one way or
another.
2. Why Do We Need to Study Philippine Tourism Laws
1. The Philippines is governed by many statutes,
administrative orders, judicial decisions, rules and
regulations.
2. It is imperative to take a closer look on these
which affect our tourism industry. The growth and
development of the tourism industry is imperative
in the context of regional and countryside
development.
3. It generates employment, trade and business
opportunities. It also promotes strong backward
and forward linkages with other industries such as
transport, real estate and property development--
hotels/resorts, gift shops, restaurants, jewelry, and
construction among others
3. What is the effect if there is no Tourism Laws?
Our country might be exposed in any acts of
TERRORISM:
We will not forget what happened during the
December 30, 2000 Light Railway terrorist attack,
also known as the Rizal Day Attack where many
have died and one hundred victims injured. These
victims’ only concern was to avail of the enjoyment
of traveling from one place to another through the
convenience of the Light Railway Transit, one of
the fastest transportation vehicles in Metro
Manila. Would it have made a difference if the
LRT management strictly followed security
measures in order to deter such attacks?
4. What is the effect if there is no
Tourism Laws?
The explosion of Newman Goldliner air-
conditioned bus traveling in Makati City on
January 25, 2011, where it was confirmed that
4 people were killed, and 14 others wounded.
What do you think should have been the
security measures that the bus company would
have done to prevent such attack? Which
government agency would have been
responsible so that the same incident would
not happen again or at least be minimized?
5. What is the effect if there is no Tourism
Laws?
THE OIL SPILL IN THE GUIMARAS ISLANDS.
The oil tanker M/T Solar I, carrying more than
two million liters of bunker fuel, sank on
August 11, 2006 at the Guimaras Strait off the
coast of the Guimaras and Negros Occidental
provinces, causing some 500,000 liters of oil
to pour into the strait. Such oil spill has now
adversely affected marine sanctuaries and
mangrove reserves in three out of five
municipalities in Guimaras Island
6. What is the effect if there is no Tourism Laws?
THE 2007 GLORIETTA EXPLOSION. This occurred
in the Glorietta 2 section at Ayala Center in
Makati, Metro Manila on October 19 2007. The
blast killed eleven and injured at least 126 persons.
The most probable cause, according to authorities,
was the accumulation of methane gas in the
building's septic tanks, as well as other
combustible materials in its basement.
Authorities, however, are not ruling out the
possibility of a terrorist attack and are still
investigating the incident to discover the true
cause of the explosionansfer the ownership of the
thing at the time it is delivered.
7. What is the effect if there is no Tourism Laws?
The sinking of the MV Princess of the Star made the
Philippine Coast Guard and the owners of Sulpicio
Lines in a very bad light. Whoever is responsible for
the death and injury of the passengers in MV Princess
of the Star, you cannot however remove the fact that
tourism laws still play a vital part in assessing the
responsibilities and liabilities, not only the ship
captain and owner of the MV Princess of the Star, but
also the proper government agency.
8. Why is there a need to study tourism laws?
These are the four (4) reasons:
First, it protects the rights of travelers and tourism workers.
Every Filipino has at least experienced becoming a traveler
in one part of his life. It would be worthwhile to take a
closer look on the different statutes governing these rights.
Second, to preserve tourism resources where future
generations can enjoy. We know that as responsible
Filipinos, we can be instrumental in being part of this
endeavor of preserving tourism resources such as our
infrastructure, natural and human resources, museums, art
collections, etc. so that our children, grand children, great
grand children, great grandchildren would be happy and
delighted to enjoy them.
9. Why is there a need to study tourism laws?
Third, to provide better tourism services. I have been
working with practitioners, entrepreneurs and
businessmen in the tourism industry. And one thing I
have observed is that they have this mission of
providing excellent service to the Filipino people. I
admit, our country is not perfect. We all have our
differences. But at least tourism laws will provide a
strong foundation of improving tourism services to
enhance our Filipino values and culture.
Lastly, to promote growth of the tourism industry. In this
regard, tourism laws will be instrumental in helping
our government generate income for our country’s
survival and growth so that we can compete in a global
economy.
