  • Bengal Tiger sees smooth sailing in Bay of Bengal
    [SINGAPORE] With the regional crisis fast becoming a memory and freight rates inching their way upwards, Bengal Tiger Line (BTL) managing director, Joachim van der Heydt, is cautiously optimistic of his feeder line's future.
  • 3 Japanese yards hope tie-up will cut costs by 20%
  • S&P revises Teekay's outlook to stable from negative
Air and Land Transport
  • KL in no hurry to raise domestic airfares by 50%
    [KUALA LUMPUR] Malaysia is studying a proposal by loss-making flag carrier Malaysian Airline System (MAS) to raise airfares on domestic routes by 50 per cent, Transport Minister Ling Liong Sik said yesterday. Dr Ling said the government has to consider the ability of the people to pay, domestic tourism, the integration between peninsula Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak states on Borneo island, as well as MAS viability as a commercial entity.
  • Cathay adds 20 more flights to Asian network
  • Vietnam Airlines gets nod to buy three planes
  • Garuda plans purchase of 7 jets
  • Proton to inspect up to 8,000 cars for suspension defects
  • Deutsche Post forced to open segment of mail delivery to UPS
  • BA to impose cargo fuel surcharge
Features
  • Britons miss out on bargains
    [LONDON] IF ever there was a time to cash in those savings or use a lottery win to sail into the sunset on holiday, it is now. For "sail", however, read "sale" as cruise lines struggle hard to avoid going into the red. Many are being forced to slash fares in order to fill a sizeable overcapacity of berths because of what some financial observers regard as a reckless over-ordering of new ships. As well as the big fleet of new ones, mainly the super kind already operating, some '10 billion (S$2.45 billion) worth is under construction or on order.

    Le Charleroi Dry Port (CDP), terminal trimodal rail/route/voie d’eau, a été officiellement ouvert vendredi dernier par le ministre-président de la Région wallonne Jean-Claude Van Cauwenberghe, qui est l’ancien bourgmestre de Charleroi. “Cet outil, fruit d’une volonté politique et industrielle, doit maintenant devenir un atout économique important pour la région”, a déclaré Marc Dubois, general manager d’Inter Ferry Boats, opérateur de l’infrastructure. Mais comme l’a souligné de son côté très justement le ministre-président, il faudrait davantage ds locomotives et de machinistes pour tracter les trains de marchandises...

Ainsi, la circulation dans le centre de Hambourg est sur le point d’être bloquée. La situation en Europe n’est pas tout à fait claire: au moment de clôturer cette édition, elle était plus ou moins la suivante.
