This study finds that regulators across the six countries prioritise different benchmarks of regulatory governance in advancing regulatory performance or quality, and suggests that the concept of sound regulation might differ between East and West, given their distinct socio-economic, political, and cultural context. This study also provides insights into regulatory constructs and practices. 收起
