TABLE OF CONTENTS

Welcome to the Eighteenth Vis East International Commercial
Arbitration Moot, aka Virtual Vis East 2. We are delighted this
year to host a record number of students and professionals from
around the globe for a week of hard work - and fun!
Over decades, the Vis Moot and Vis East have earned
recognition as an educational exercise bringing together
arbitration professionals to meet and get acquainted in a truly
international exchange. Arbitrators from participating law firms
are enthusiastic about meeting some of the future leaders of our
profession in action. We know the students have been working devotedly to their
research, drafting and advocacy. They have earned their wings in the highly
competitive arbitration job market. A Mootie’s CV attracts attention from recruiters who
recognise that the Vis experience is an assurance of a resourceful, diligent and
practical team player – that perfect first-year associate who can hit the ground running.
The Moot’s social activities have always fostered the exploration of different cultures
and the development of transnational friendships that will endure for years to come.
The gatherings have of course morphed over the past year since our abrupt transition
from face-to-face to virtual format. Last year, it looked as if Covid would stop us in our
tracks; suddenly, no one could travel to Hong Kong. Instead, we reacted, adapted and
innovated – and so became the first international moot to take place entirely on-line.
This year, instead of cocktail receptions, coffee klatches and conferences, the Vis East
and its sponsors have planned an exciting list of webinars, on-line networking and a
virtual drop-in café.
The silver lining of the Covid restrictions is the number of schools who previously
lacked the resources to compete in person at a Vis or Vis East Oral Competition but
can now participate on a level playing field with those who have been attending for
decades. This has brought some positive developments in the Moots and in the
arbitration community around the world. First, every step of the Moot – from
registration and the release of the Problem, through all the coaching and practice to the
Oral competitions in March – is now on-line. Geography is no longer a barrier. Teams
have found mentors and coaches outside their own jurisdictional confines. Along the
way, these students – and the professional arbitrators who have supported them –
have gained skills and confidence in the virtual world. Younger practitioners, raised
from infancy on the internet, found themselves suddenly key members of an arbitration
team – with the ‘older folk’ depending on their technical expertise to make the most of
the new virtual platforms. Arbitration has progressed to meet the unprecedented
challenges of a pandemic – and it will never again go back. Evolution has become
revolution.
After the competition, the Moot Alumni Association maintains the connections among
former competitors and arbitrators - an invaluable network for the exchange of news
and scholarship. The MAA’s Vindobona Journal often provides bright young scholars
with their first opportunity for publication. Please join us to keep in touch after this week
by visiting the Vis East website and the MAA Facebook group. It may be – after
participating in the Moot itself – the best investment you can make to advance your
arbitration trajectory.
On behalf of the Mooties, I thank all the professionals who judge the Moot and who
participate from home by coaching and evaluating the memoranda. Especially warm
gratitude goes out to our sponsors from both Hong Kong and abroad. The Chartered
Institute of Arbitrators and its East Asia Branch have made it possible to hire and train
people who will make your virtual experience seamless and enjoyable. Hong Kong’s
legal community - the Department of Justice, our barristers, solicitors and arbitrators -
support us tirelessly, both financially and by offering their time and their resources each
year to make the Vis East happen. Thanks to your support, Vis East has survived and
thrived in the face of adversity.
Even though you can’t visit us in person this year, let me assure you that our generous
sponsors, and indeed the entire legal community, warmly welcome all of you to work
and to network at the Virtual Vis East. The Vis East Moot Team looks forward to
meeting you on-line and to making your experience memorable.
Sincerely,
Louise Barrington
Director
Willem C. Vis East International Commercial Arbitration Moot
WELCOME FROM LOUISE BARRINGTON, DIRECTOR OF THE VIS EAST MOOT

Willem C. Vis (East)
International Commercial Arbitration Moot
Since its inauguration in 1994 in Vienna, the Vis Moot has always
been a landmark event bonding university teams and top-notch
coaches and arbitrators from all over the globe in a friendly
competition. The extension of the Moot to Asia in 2004, with Hong
Kong as its host city in this region since then, has seen the Moot
flourish into one of the more prestigious mooting competitions in
the world.
Notwithstanding the challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the history-
making inaugural virtual Vis East Moot was successfully held in Hong Kong with the technical
support of eBRAM Centre last year. Building on the success of the virtual Vis East Moot last
year, I am pleased to note that the Vis East Moot Foundation has decided to host this
signature event in Hong Kong in virtual format again this year. I am also pleased to see the
Foundation’s passionate continuous contribution towards the promotion of inclusiveness and
capacity building in international arbitration.
In contrast to last year for which temporary rental space for managing the virtual Moot was
needed, the virtual Moot this year is managed on the new premises of the Foundation situated
in the Hong Kong Legal Hub, which was officially open in November last year. The Hong
Kong Legal Hub comprises the heritable buildings of the former Central Government Offices,
the former French Mission Building and Two Exchange Square which accommodates the
offices of more than 20 local, regional and international law-related organisations, and the
Foundation is one of them. Their presence is a vote of confidence in Hong Kong’s position
as a regional legal services centre.
This year, the Moot has 147 university teams from 34 jurisdictions, which is double last year’s
participation. We are honoured and would continue to offer our support to the Vis East Moot
as a part of our important capacity building work in this region. May I express my appreciation
again to the Foundation and all participants, coaches, and judges from Hong Kong and over
the globe for their dedication and support for bringing another Virtual Vis East this year.
I wish the event a great success and all guests and participants an exciting and rewarding
experience.

The Vis Moot was the brainchild of three law professors who wanted to encourage the use of the
then brand new Convention on the International Sale of Goods. It was the first private law
international moot and the first arbitration moot set in Vienna the home of UNCITRAL. The Moot
began in 1992-1993 with 9 teams and has expanded to approximately 380 competing law schools
today. To ensure that every Moot participant benefits from an international intercultural
experience, there are no national or regional elimination rounds. Thus many teams may compete
from the same jurisdiction. This year at Vis East there are 24 Chinese mainland teams, 11
Americans and 21 Indian schools plus 31 other jurisdiction represented.
The goal of the Vis East Moot is to share with the original Vis Moot in Vienna the promotion and
study of international commercial arbitration and to train tomorrow’s legal leaders in methods of
alternate dispute resolution.
Because of the international business community’s marked preference for arbitration as the
means for resolving trans-border commercial disputes, the Vis Moot was created as a clinical tool
for training law students in the crucial aspects of the procedure: research, analysis, drafting and
advocacy. Student teams read and analyse the facts and evidence of a case, identify the legal
issues seek out the relevant legal texts, craft their legal arguments, draft memoranda for the
claimant and respondent, and argue orally on the basis of those memoranda before an
international tribunal of experts.
Each year, the problem involves consideration of the UNCITRAL Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods (CISG) and other commercial law, in the context of arbitration. The
rules under which the arbitration is conducted change each year. This year the rules of The Swiss
Chambers’ Arbitration Institution govern the arbitration procedure.
This year, at the 18th
Vis East Moot, 57% of the 150 teams are competing from Asia. After last
year adaption to virtual format, 72 teams participated in the very first major international moot to
take place on-line. This year, the second Virtual Vis East welcomes 150 teams, of which 57%
are competing from Asia.
INTRODUCING THE MOOT

It gives me great pleasure to welcome the students, coaches and
arbitrators participating virtually in this year’s Eighteenth
Annual Willem C. Vis East Moot. I would like to extend
particularly warm wishes to those who have participated in previous
years: “Welcome Back!”
The Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb) was founded in 1915,
"to promote and facilitate worldwide the determination of disputes
by arbitration and alternative means of private dispute resolution
other than resolution by the court."
The Institute achieves its objective through its 21,500 members located in 149 Countries and
an international network of 41 branches, including the East Asia Branch (EAB). The EAB is a
registered charity.
The EAB is the largest branch of the Institute with more than 2,300 members in the region
comprising Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, Macau, Myanmar,
Taiwan and Vietnam. Chapters have been established in Indonesia, Japan, South Korea,
Philippines, Taiwan and most recently Vietnam, with interest groups in Beijing, Shanghai and
Shenzhen.
Our objective is to provide a regional organization for members of the Institute (Chartered,
Fellows, Fellows, Members and Associates) residing in East Asia. Our Young Members Group
(YMG) continues to grow through networking and activities for students, fresh graduates and
young professionals across the branch. YMG Chapters have been launched in Taiwan and
the Philippines, and second EAB YMG Conference was held virtually in November 2020.
The role of the EAB is to promote and represent the Institute and its services - arbitration and
ADR and to uphold the standards of the Institute in East Asia. EAB achieves this through the
local media, and by direct contact with the public, local professionals, businesses and arbitral
and educational organizations.
2020/2021 has been a challenging year but we have continued to organise training courses
and member activities throughout the EAB. Almost all have been virtual, and this has been a
benefit to those members who cannot always access through the usual face-to-face events.
The EAB has also collaborated with HKIAC and the DOJ in various activities in the region to
promote Hong Kong as an international dispute resolution centre. The branch also promotes
diversity and inclusion through a variety of events.
May I take this opportunity to wish you all a very enjoyable virtual visit to Hong Kong and the
best of luck for all participating teams in the Moot. While you may not be here in person, I do
hope you can enjoy some of the Hong Kong experience.
Yours truly,
Nicholas Turner
Chairman CIArb (EAB)

MESSAGE FROM BRANCH CHAIRMAN

The Willem C. Vis East International Commercial Arbitration Moot is an
annual competition of teams representing law schools throughout the
world. We are delighted once again to be part of this wonderful event.
We believe mooting sharpens law students’ legal skills, particularly the
need to think clearly and express views effectively. Students who have
participated in moots will attest to the need to learn how to present
complex arguments in simple ways, as well as the importance of
sharpening advocacy skills and communication, on this occasion
virtually which is likely to be a valuable experience. Mooters will be
stretched to perform at levels they might otherwise think to be beyond
them.
It also goes without saying that Vis East Moot has continuously fostered the study of
international commercial law and arbitration for the resolution of international business
disputes through its application to a concrete problem of a client, and in the process trains law
leaders of tomorrow in methods of alternative dispute resolution. In this regard, I congratulate
and commend the organizers of the Vis East Moot for selflessly contributing towards the
development of knowledge and skills in arbitration among the students of Hong Kong and
beyond.
On behalf of CityU Law School I warmly welcome all of you and wish you a productive, fulfilling
and enjoyable competition.

MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

We welcome both old and new participants to the Eighteenth Annual Willem C. Vis East International
Commercial Arbitration Moot.
When the Vis Moot began in Vienna twenty eight years ago Prof. Eric E. Bergsten made a conscious
decision that it should be an enjoyable educational event for the students who had come to argue and for
thelawyersandprofessorswhohadcometohearthosearguments.Seriousworkandfungowelltogether.
Theworldofinternationalcommerciallawandinternationalcommercialarbitrationdemandshardwork,but
it offers an opportunity to work with and to socialize with some of the most brilliant lawyers and academics
in the field of international commercial law. We understand that remote events cannot entirely substitute
meetings in-person but we also believe this year’s Vis East Moot will provide opportunities to grow your
professionalnetwork and to meet newfriends.
TheMoothasthepotentialtobealifechangingevent– indeedyouwillsometimeshearformerparticipants
of the Moot reflect on that very point. While that cannot by any means be guaranteed we would not be
surprised if you do consider the Moot at the very least to be the highlight of your legal studies. We know it
to be a fact for many as it was for us. There are numerous careers in international commercial law and
arbitration which started at the Moot and you will find Moot Alumni (oraddicts) in nearly all major lawfirms,
arbitral institutions and universities.
The Directors of the Willem C Vis Moot are very grateful to Louise Barrington and her team for having set
up the Vis East eighteen years ago. The Vis East Moot gives teams from all other parts of the world the
opportunity to meet their Asian fellow students and many experienced arbitration practitioners from the
region.
YouwillmeetanumberofmembersoftheMootAlumniAssociationthisweek.Theytoohavebeenstudent
participants. They know the experience you are having. We invite you to join them in the activities they
organize during this Moot week and to join the MAA before you leave. There is no better way to extend
your Moot experience into a lifetime of professionalachievement and maybe also train the next generation
ofinternationalcommerciallawyers. Abigthank yougoes toallthosepractitioners andacademics whoact

In a world such as we see today, the promotion of peaceful means of resolving disputes is of particular
importance.TheVisMootseesitselfasmakinganimportantcontributiontothedevelopmentandeducation
of the skills necessary to establish a positive environment for the settlement of international disputes. As
Directors we aim to continue to guide the Moot in the same spirit of friendly competition and international
cooperation as has been developed by its president and formerdirector ProfessorEric E. Bergsten.
We wish you an enjoyable and fulfilling week and one that you will always remember with pleasure. We
look forward seeing you again either in Hong Kong, Vienna oras colleagues in practice and academia.

MESSAGE FROM CHRISTOPHER KEE, STEFAN KRӦLL, AND PATRIZIA NETAL
DIRECTORS OF THE VIS MOOT IN VIENNA

To the Members of our Moot Family, the Moot Alumni Association (“MAA”) wishes to welcome
you to the Second Virtual Vis East ("VVE"). From the moment you decided to take part in the
Vis Moot, be it as a student, an arbitrator, or by reading briefs, you became a member of our
ever-growing Moot family.
To our students, after so many months of intense preparations, particularly given the unique
times, to produce two submissions and engaging in intense preparation for the oral hearings,
the time has finally come! We take this opportunity to wish all the teams the best of luck in their
oral rounds. Notwithstanding all your hard work, we would like to remind you to also take a
step back and take advantage of all the other aspects offered by the VVE. You have made a
huge effort to get to this week and while we understand how important the oral arguments are
(we were there once!), we also want to make sure that you take full advantage of everything
that the VVE and the MAA has to offer. The Vis offers you the opportunity to make lifelong
friends and meet future colleagues. However, this will only happen if you allow yourself to also
enjoy the various events offered throughout the week, not only by the MAA, but various other
organizations, and connect virtually with people from all over the world.
To our arbitrators, we are delighted to see those of you who are back again at the second
Virtual Vis and excited to welcome newcomers. We thank you for taking the time out of your
hectic schedules to act as arbitrators and giving back to the community. We wish to stress that
this week is also much more than just a week of arbitrating. The Vis brings together old and
new friends as well as former, current and future professional colleagues, even with this year's
electronic platform.
The Vis week offers everyone unforgettable memories and the MAA is the ideal way of
maintaining new and old friendships and professional networks. While everyone who
participates in the Vis Moot is automatically part of the Moot Family, we encourage you to
become an official member of the MAA so that you can not only maintain your new and old
connections but also take advantage of unique opportunities in the fields of international
arbitration and trade law and also give back to the arbitration community. The MAA offers many
opportunities such as the Vindobona Journal, Mentorship Program, participation as observers
at the UNCITRAL Working Sessions, legal trainings and conferences worldwide, a
membership base of over 5,000 individuals, and so much more.
Members of the MAA Executive Board and MAA Core Team will be at our "MAA Desk" on the
virtual platform all week and we will be available via email and our social media outlets. Please
do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions.
To formally sign up for the MAA, please do so on our website: www.maa.net. Please also add
us on our social media platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter).
With Best Regards,
Sherlin Tung Isabela Deveza Sabine Neuhaus Wendy Gonzales
