I wud like to learn a new language in the hope of landing at a maritime law consultancy job.German or French?

I am currently taking a postgraduate degree in Maritime Law (major) and Corporate and Business Transactions (minor) in the Netherlands. I am thinking of learning the Dutch language. However, I have checked the vacancies in maritime law jobs and most of the results are in Hamburg. Also, French is the language in commercial arbitration. So I am now confused on whether to take language courses in Dutch, German or French.

Since Taiwan has more rights to the Diaoyu Islands than does the PRC, should they have...?

After all, the PRC claims that the islands a part of Taiwan, where's their respect?

1. Civil Law (law of the land) &
2. Maritime Admiralty Law (law of the water)

Maritime admiralty is banking law & it says that because you were born from your mother's water you are an admiralty product. This is why ships sit in births and they are tied to the dock and the captain has to give a certificate of manisfest to the port authority. ...

Law and international waters (I live in Virginia if that makes a difference)?

So I'm not planning anything, just curious as far as my rights at sea. Anyhoo, I own a small open deck boat that I use pretty often.

For me Titanic should be considered equally important to Lusitania. Because, approx 500 more folks died on Titanic and no ship can beat Titanic in her significance in changes to Maritime laws and is surely the most fascinating ship to be a fan off.

I do not agree to the fact that people believe that ...

Can a someone explain this to me?

I was reading post regarding Birth certificates. My birth was never recorded and i can't get it recorded, I came across this post and wanted to get someone to clarify this.

by sweat-equity jurisdiction. ...
