  • South Korean navy ships . . .
    South Korean navy ships escort fishing vessels in the Yellow Sea near Taeyonpyong Island in southern waters. South Korea has said it sank one North Korean gunboat and heavily damaged several others in the countries' first naval clash in the Yellow Sea since the Korean war of 1950-1953. Four North Korean patrol boats and three torpedo boats intruded into South Korean waters early on Tuesday and several began firing on a South Korean patrol boat. South Korean warships returned fire, sinking one and damaging several others. The north-south clashes are casting a pall over South Korean president Kim Dae Yung's engagement policy with the republic's northern neighbour but the government insisted that the policies should proceed consistently and continuously.

  • La Maasvlakte Deux devient réalité
    La ministre néerlandaise du Transport Tineke Netelenbos, s'est laissée convaincre du fait que le manque d'espace qui menace le port de Rotterdam ne peut être compensé par les ports zélandais et Moerdijk. Le cabinet a en conséquence approuvé le rapport intérimaire Project Mainport Rotterdam et donne de la sorte le feu vert à l'aménagement de la Deuxième Maasvlakte. La ministre a laissé entendre que le développement se fera en phases et que la première phase de 500 ha ne pourra être entamée qu'en 2002. "Que Rotterdam commence par vérifier si tout l'espace disponible est utilisé de manière optimale", a déclaré la ministre.
  • Fret aérien: les produits td sont une forme dissimulée de hausse de tarifs
    Les services de fret aérien à délai garanti (td) ne tiennent pas leurs promesses et sont une forme dissimulée de hausse de prix. C'est ce qu'a déclaré Birgit Heftrich de la division Achat et Logistique de Siemens à l'occasion de la plate-forme de fret aérien à Munich.
  • Mosolf et Hödlmayr s'allient en Europe de l'Est
    Les transporteurs de voitures autrichien Hödlmayr Ges (Schwertberg) et allemand Horst Mosolf Internationale Spedition (Kirchheim) ont signé un accord de coopération visant à la création d'une joint-venture en Europe de l'Est.
  • La navigation fluviale est freinée dans ses ambitions
    Les autorités parlent souvent du transfert nécessaire du flux de marchandises de la route vers le fluvial comme étant une des réponses à long terme à la problématique de la mobilité. De réels efforts en ce sens sont d'ailleurs fournis à divers niveaux. Mais les opérateurs fluviaux ne peuvent s'empêcher de constater que la réalisation des mesures annoncées peut en soi se faire attendre relativement longtemps et qu'ils restent confrontés à des situations freinant considérablement l'expansion du trafic par voie d'eau. C'est ce qui est ressorti une fois encore de l'inauguration officielle du nouveau Container Terminal Gent (CT Gand) vendredi dernier.
