The objective of this joint research study is to identify worrying issues (such as power struggle) encountered during the Pandemic whereby one might see a shift of power structures from the Parliament to that of the Executive Branch of the Government and gradually the parliaments may lose its importance in the areas of responsibilities.
 

The research project targetted the Asia-Pacific region with individual country reporting its own structural system of government on how they execute policies, laws etc.. in times of the Pandemic.  KAS had identified 9 countries namely, Australia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mongolia, New Zealand, the Philippines, South Korea and Taiwan.
