Haiwen Edward Liu Accompanies Secretary for Transport and Logistics on Hamburg and Athens Visit

9月1日至6日，香港特別行政區運輸及物流局局長林世雄率領代表團訪問德國漢堡和希臘雅典。代表團成員主要來自香港海運港口局，包括來自海運和港口行業不同領域的權威專家。作為海運港口局成員，海問律師事務所香港辦公室合伙人劉洋律師參與了此次出訪。

From 1 to 6 September, the Secretary for Transport and Logistics of Hong Kong SAR Government, Mr. Lam Sai-hung, led a delegation for a visit to Hamburg, Germany, and Athens, Greece. The delegation primarily consisted of members from the Hong Kong Marine and Port Board (HKMPB), featuring heavyweights from various sectors of the maritime and port industry in Hong Kong. As a member of HKMPB, Edward Liu, a partner at Haiwen & Partners LLP, participated in this visit.

在德國漢堡期間，劉洋律師與代表團出席了全球最具規模的海運貿易展之一——2024年德國漢堡船舶海事展覽會（SMM Hamburg 2024）。期間，劉洋律師受邀在9月2日舉行的主題為“為何香港航運業獨步全球：通過不斷變化的地緣政治潮流、區域動態和行業演變來實現雄心”的研討會上，發表了題為“香港高端且多元化海事服務集群”的主題演講，并參與了與林世雄局長、香港定期班輪協會主席Roberto Giannetta及香港投資推廣署運輸及工業行業主管林勁松的圓桌討論。

During the stay in Hamburg, Edward Liu attended the Shipbuilding, Machinery and Marine Technology (SMM) trade fair 2024 in Hamburg, Germany, one of the world's leading trade fairs and conferences for the maritime industry. On 2 September, Edward was invited to speak at a seminar titled “Why Hong Kong Shipping Reigns Supreme: Navigating Ambitions Through Shifting Geopolitical Tides, Regional Dynamics, and Industry Evolution”. Edward presented a keynote speech on “Hong Kong's High-End and Diverse Maritime Services Cluster” and participated in a roundtable discussion with Secretary Lam, Mr. Roberto Giannetta, Chairman of the Hong Kong Liner Shipping Association, and Mr. KC Lam, Head of Transport and Industry at Invest Hong Kong.

在演講中，劉洋律師重點介紹了香港的高端航運服務。他指出：“香港擁有豐富多彩的海事服務，從船舶管理和融資到保險，以及法律服務和仲裁。這些多樣化的服務使香港能夠應對海事行業不斷變化的需求，并確保在全球航運舞臺上具備強大競爭力。”作為一名經常為歐洲船東和運營商處理仲裁的律師，劉律師通過實際案例強調，當涉及亞洲元素時，香港是達成交易和解決海事爭議的最佳理想之地。

In his speech, Edward Liu highlighted the diverse high-end maritime services in Hong Kong. He stated, “Hong Kong offers a wide range of maritime services, from ship management and financing to insurance, legal services, and arbitration. This diversity enables Hong Kong to meet the evolving needs of the maritime industry and ensures its strong competitiveness on the global shipping stage.” As a lawyer regularly handling arbitrations for European shipowners and operators, Edward emphasised through practical examples that when Asian elements are involved, Hong Kong is the best ideal place for both deal making and maritime dispute resolution.

在隨后的圓桌討論中，劉洋律師進一步闡述了香港的優勢。他表示：“在不斷變化的地緣政治背景下，香港不僅已準備好迎接挑戰，還在積極定位自己為高端海事服務的首選中心。因此，無論是船東、船舶經營者還是貨物貿易商，香港不僅是一個目的地，更是航行在機遇海洋中的可靠合作伙伴。”

During the subsequent roundtable discussion, Edward Liu further elaborated on Hong Kong's advantages. He remarked, “In the face of changing geopolitical dynamics, Hong Kong is not only ready to meet challenges but is actively positioning itself as the premier hub for high-end maritime services. Therefore, whether you are a shipowner, operator, or cargo trader, Hong Kong is not just a destination; it is a reliable partner navigating the seas of opportunity.”

在訪問德國漢堡期間，劉洋律師陪同林世雄局長與多位來自漢堡港務局、主要班輪公司、物流公司及船東組織的業界代表會面，向他們講解香港國際航運中心作為中國內地與國際市場之間“超級聯系人”的策略性定位，以及香港高增值海運服務對全球航運業的貢獻。林世雄局長和代表團還參觀了當地港口設施，了解德國碼頭的智慧及綠色設施。

While in Hamburg, Edward Liu accompanied Secretary Lam in meetings with a number of industry players, including the Hamburg Port Authority, major shipping liners, logistics companies and shipowners' association. He explained the strategic position of the Hong Kong international maritime centre as the "super connector" between Mainland of China and the global markets, and how its high value-added maritime services can contribute to global maritime business. Secretary Lam and the delegation also toured local port facilities and learned about Germany's smart and green terminal operations.

在希臘雅典訪問期間，劉洋律師與林世雄局長和代表團一道，與希臘船東協會及其他航運公司和協會的代表會面，推廣香港的高增值海運服務及香港船舶注冊處的工作。他還參觀了“一帶一路”建設的重點項目——中遠海運比雷埃夫斯港口設施，了解希臘港口的運作，并推廣香港的法律及爭議解決服務。

In Athens, together with Secretary Lam and the delegation, Edward Liu met with representatives from the Union of Greek Shipowners and other shipping companies and associations to promote Hong Kong's high value-added maritime services and the work of the Hong Kong Ships Registry. Edward also visited a key project under the Belt and Road Initiative — the COSCO-operated Piraeus Port — to understand the port's operations and promote Hong Kong's legal and dispute resolution services.
