one exception (England) all civilised countries have realized the superiority of
codification over any other legal system, either common law or case law... In
countries like Siam where so large improvements are being made and administration
is being transformed in every respect, what is most necessary is short, lucid Codes,
accessible, and easily understood by the people. To the public, it will give a fair
knowledge of their duties and rights. To the judges a clear and simple statement
of law, to which they may refer in any case coming under their jurisdiction. Besides,
the question of codification has in Siam its peculiar importance with regard to
foreign relations. It seems doubtful whether foreign Powers will ever consent to the
abolition, of the extraterritorial rights as long as Siam cannot bring forward a better
legal system... Such were undoubtedly the reasons which induced the Ministry of
Justice to take up the matter of codifying the Penal Law. In the year, 116,
a commission was especially appointed for the purposeû: Report on the Proposed.
