Melanie Mitchell, a Perth importer of designer home ware, recently travelled to Sweden to purchase new stock for the cold winter months. Melanie signed a contract (in Stockholm, Sweden) to purchase five thousand electric blankets from "Svenska Sleeps". Melanie was informed (by the seller) that the blankets were to be manufactured at Svenska Sleeps' factory in Thailand, and Melanie had read in the newspapers that the quality control at that particular factory was very poor. Melanie and Svenska Sleeps incorporated a choice of law clause into their contract, identifying the law of Mexico to be the governing law. Assume that Mexican law offers tax concessions and does not (unlike Australian and Swedish domestic law) make manufacturers and importers liable for injuries resulting from the use of defective goods.

With reference to the above set of facts, discuss which nation's law would be the relevant law should a dispute arise

(a) Between Melanie and Svenska Sleeps

(b) Between Svenska Sleeps and the Thai employees
