Abstract

This chapter chiefly discusses the law in Singapore on the ways in which a contract may be brought to a prospective end, in other words ‘terminated’ or ‘discharged’, by reasons of non-performance or renunciation by a contractual obligor. The chapter also highlights how the Singapore approach to the question, though similar to the English model, given its reception of English law as a former British colony, remains slightly different. It also briefly discusses when such contracts may be terminated by the parties in accordance with their agreement as set out in contractual terms providing for a power of termination.
