Hamzah,

My inclination is to assemble a team of surveyors, hydrographers, and real
estate/international law lawyers to review not only the ICJ¹s directions,
but also review the way in which each sovereign state involved handles
boundary determination within its own jurisdiction. That is, how does each
sovereign state determine its littoral boundaries, land ownership of land
parcels adjoining a littoral boundary, the evidence of prior monumentation
of a boundary on the ground versus the documented description of the
boundary, and many more issues that may arise.

The idea is to find compromise between conflicting methodologies based on
the intent of the ICJ¹s directions and Internal legal precedence, which each
sovereign state has developed within its own jurisprudence.

Good luck,
Gary Jeffress
