  • More pain for freight lines
    UNCERTAINTY over the pace of world economic recovery and fleet oversupply are set to dog the sea freight container sector into 2010, spelling more pain for ship companies carrying manufactured goods.
  • Ex-boss took fees from rival: Zim
    ZIM Integrated Shipping is suing its former area president for Asia for allegedly breaching his contractual and fiduciary duties by taking consultancy fees from a competitor, accepting an US$80,000 loan and failing to disclose rebates paid back by a Malaysian port.
  • China bunker market set to double in a few years
    China's marine fuel market looks poised to double in size in the next few years to become Asia's second largest, but it will be cold comfort for traders watching dwindling demand for similar quality fuel oil from the power sector.
  • Outlook for LNG bright despite slump
  • Foreign firms eyeing US rail plans
Strait Talk
  • S'pore invention makes waves
    IT IS not often that I spend part of my weekend reading articles on keeping saltwater fish. In fact, it is unlikely to happen again. But I discovered an online aquatic journal that told me everything I needed to know about calcium in seawater.
