Asian Legal Periodicals

Hello Law-Libsters,

My library is attempting to beef up our holdings in the area of serialized
publications about Asian legal and business matters generally, and
publications specific to China and Taiwan in particular. We prefer the
publications be in English.

My question is for any librarian who deals with this kind of information
regularly. What are the essential publications that we should be
subscribing to? Are there web based databases that aggrigate this kind of
material (free or fee)? And can anyone direct me to a bibliography that
will help me identify which resources are available and make subscription
recommendations to my superiors? I've been looking, but I've had no luck
finding a bibliography and it's difficult to judge publications by their
presentation on their webpages (or is that books and covers?) especially
since some are English translations of Asian language publications. I
really want to know which resources your attorneys are reading?

Advice or recommendations will be gratefully accepted.
