海問律師事務所香港辦公室合伙人劉洋近日獲迪拜國際仲裁中心（DIAC）及沙特商事仲裁中心（SCCA）正式委任為仲裁員。這一委任不僅彰顯了劉洋在國際仲裁領域的卓越專業能力，也體現了其對中東市場法律體系的深刻理解。正值中國企業在該地區投資迅速增長之際，這一任命尤具重要意義。Edward Liu, Partner at Haiwen & Partners LLP, has been appointed to the arbitrator panels of the Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC) and the Saudi Centre for Commercial Arbitration (SCCA). These prestigious appointments recognize his expertise in international arbitration and deep understanding of Middle Eastern markets, where Chinese investment is expanding rapidly.值得一提的是，此次委任緊隨劉洋去年作為香港法律服務代表團成員訪問阿聯酋及沙特阿拉伯之后。該代表團由香港特別行政區律政司司長率領，旨在推廣香港法律及爭議解決服務，并加強與中東地區的法律合作。訪問期間，劉洋積極參與了與DIAC、SCCA及其他重要法律機構的交流，并就中國企業在中東投資的爭議解決策略分享了專業見解。【新聞鏈接：海問劉洋律師陪同香港律政司長訪問中東】Notably, these appointments follow Edward's visit to the UAE and Saudi Arabia last year as a member of the Hong Kong legal services delegation led by the Secretary for Justice.

During the visit, Edward engaged with DIAC, SCCA, and other key legal institutions, sharing insights on dispute resolution strategies for Chinese enterprises investing in the region.隨著中國企業在基礎設施、能源、貿易等領域的投資不斷加深，對經驗豐富、兼具商業思維的仲裁員的需求日益增長。DIAC與SCCA作為中東地區領先的爭議解決機構，在國際商事仲裁中發揮著關鍵作用。此次獲得這兩個機構的委任，不僅彰顯了劉洋在全球仲裁領域的卓越聲譽，也進一步加強了他在中國與中東法律及商業文化交流中的橋梁作用。As Chinese companies play an increasingly significant role in infrastructure, energy, and trade across the Middle East, the demand for experienced, commercially minded arbitrators has never been greater. DIAC and SCCA are at the forefront of international dispute resolution, and Edward's appointment reflects both his global reputation in arbitration and his ability to bridge legal and cultural perspectives between China and the Middle East.“能夠加入DIAC和SCCA的仲裁員名單，我深感榮幸。這兩個機構在推動國際仲裁發展方面發揮著至關重要的作用，”劉洋表示，“我期待為解決復雜的跨境爭議貢獻力量，并協助企業在這一充滿機遇的市場中穩健前行。”"It is an honor to join the panels of DIAC and SCCA, both of which play a crucial role in shaping international arbitration in the region," said Edward Liu.
