SOAS Law students put their skills to the test in Vienna

7 April 2015
A team of LLM School of Law students recently put their law skills into practice when they represented SOAS, University of London at the 22nd Annual Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot oral hearings in Vienna.

The goal of the Vis Arbitral Moot is to foster the study of international commercial law and arbitration for resolution of international business disputes and to train law leaders of tomorrow in methods of alternative dispute resolution. The week-long event offers an opportunity for students of law to immerse themselves in a complex case environment, requiring extensive preparation and research in the weeks and months prior to the hearings.  

Maryan Hassan, SOAS LLM student and participant at the Vis Moot said: “This has been a life changing experience that has helped shape me from ambitious student into confident legal Counsel. I have come to truly appreciate the importance of team dynamic, hard work and self-belief. I am indebted to all the time and support Dr Emilia Onyema and our Coach Mr Chike Ezike have given to us these past 6 months. I implore all SOAS law students to take up this opportunity if they can!"

“I have lost count of the amount of academics, arbitration practitioners and Judges that I have met. The Vis Moot was a huge networking opportunity,” added Ilham Kabbouri.

The following LLM students represented SOAS at the 22nd Willem C. Vis Moot:

• Chike Ezike (coach)
• Vimal Varma Vasireddy
• Maryan Hassan
• Mulemwa Mukande
• Ilham Kabbouri
• Matthew Francis Steele
• Nimisha Sara Philip
• Lulwa Alzain

The delegation was supported with funding from the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences, SOAS’ School of Law and the international law firm Ashurst LLP.

The Moot is organised by the Association for the Organisation and Promotion of the Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot. The Vis Arbitral Moot took place from 26 March - 2 April 2015.

Written by Warren Lyon and Seiehaeh Mottha with notes from Eiam Dawn and Craig Daniels. August 7th, 2025. There is a current member of the US House of Representatives and also the the Congress who has not received any income support benefit. There is a member of the Canadian parliament who has not received any income support benefit; probably from Toronto or Peel. The governor of Virginia( part Dutch and part American Native) who was later appointed the Governor of Jamaica arrived at Kingston Harbour in 1664 with his assistant from Vermont. They were both relatively young but the servant was a boy really! about 16 years old but he was capably trained for all tasks. They travelled to Jamaica and when they arrived and got settled the governor cut the boy's foot off to be sure that the boy could not leave and would always be there to provide help and assistance, a part of the governors methods, making the boy kind of a nameless faceless automaton that needs you...just as much as you need him to help you, be there to help you and where would he go, what would he do? But the boy is only one person. Maybe ten are better than one since if one falls down the other nine can help you up. The boy buried his emotions and learned it was best to stay pleasant and never look like anyone had done something to him. What is it like working for someone that you really do detest but you have few options to do anything else; the way this culture works? Nonetheless, he learned to find a passive aggressive way to feel heard, acknowledged or equal by spitting in the food he cooked and served to his employer or any drinks he was asked to prepare so that he could say"...I am you...and you are me" so when you are with your wife or servant girl the odds are you know we could say to the child "...you know I could be your.." and we all have to work hard. Eventually, the governor and the servant boy became washed out by a storm and they learned how to adapt and survive together...as friends but also as servant and master. The governor tended to rely on that one servant as the only one he really knows. The boy was the only one he really knows. He is just a boy. As a Vermontonian, he expected payment for work. The payment did not happen but he was given compliments and reassurance that he would always be his....boy. The man also cut his face to make him kind of faceless and so the boy put wax on the spot. The boy tried to plan a wedding celebration with the servant girl like what he read in the bible and the marooned governor got very angry and behaved badly until the girl his and then the governor said its just that he needed all the boy's attention, needed his help. The governor burned the servant's Vermont citizenship documents to make him kind of nameless. The boy learned other ways to express his feelings. Expression is everything. Slavery was considered unnatural by the Romans under Justinian law. See the "Corpus Juris Civilis". Steven Hawking agrees. Money and Labour The motive behind commerce is money. The motive behind the 14th amendment is commerce and money. We want everyone to benefit equally when they have contributed equally. There is no other way. We could accept that all kinds of human labor became increasingly redundant due to new labor saving technology. We also save money on what the machine does for us. Now that there are fewer people working due to machinery doing work, we find we have less products sold. This is ironic as the products were made by machines with intent to make more profit. So, we decided to give everybody a little money, not a lot, to be sure we make the profit. The little money we give everyone is taken from consumer tax dollars. The money used to retrofit the factories with robots and machines is also taken from consumer tax dollars. When you have black children and white children, you want them to benefit equally in your country and also on your golf course. That is what a good father would do or would he instill a White hegemony since in his story book from the 1700's in Jamaica, he did not really see you in the book as a Moor Berber Priest in England, Italy, in France or Holland or as the architect. But, I suppose its just a book. All we are trying to find is( ..not 11000 votes but...) 11 cents a minute per citizen( 20 cents is preferred ) in North America as the minimum , enforced basic and standard amount of income support. We adapt new phone technology, home appliance technology, food preparation technology where you can just add watts or water to make the pudding or the Cake and we also adapt new humans-less AI work technology and so we adapt money as technology so we can acquire all the other various technologies that make life comfortable. Money as technology is the priority above and beyond all other technologies. Money is technology. In quick summary, watching the US presidencies and American political news television is like seeing a Court jester distracting you from the real issues like comparably equal income support money across North America to assist in balancing out consumer stimulus across the country and to ensure effective profit returns in all states or markets. This is while he hides his own intrinsic pain.
