Transnet welcomes proposed inland port By Alan Peat
A new billion rand inland port in Johannesburg is being planned by a private sector company, and the Transnet reaction to this public/private partnership is positive, according to Dr Willie Els, of the development company, Inframax Holdings. The 630-hectare site for the new project, which will be called Tambo Springs, is 25 kilometres south-east of the Johannesburg CBD. There are plans to add at least a further 600-ha to this site to make it a world class inland port and logistics facility. Tambo Springs is to be developed in phases, and is expected to take about ten
years to reach fruition. “The first phase is anticipated to involve an initial investment of plus/ minus R1-billion,” Els added. It is intended to supplement City Deep, where Els felt that the growth of the city around the terminal had made expansion and/or upgrading to accommodate new demands difficult. “City Deep still has a vital role to play,” he told FTW. “But the time has come to have it operating in tandem with a larger inland port or ports located on the new city periphery and able to accommodate a large, efficient, intermodal capability for road, rail and air transport. “This is fundamental to
any 21st century freight operation.” The proposed logistics gateway is designed to help meet Gauteng’s need to increase the current capacity in-and-out of Johannesburg to 3-million TEUs by 2015 and 4-m by 2020. The new port has access to the N3 freeway to Durban, the N1 to Cape Town, via the R390 to Port Elizabeth and East London as well as freeways to the southern industrial centres of Heidelberg, Vereeniging, Vanderbijl Park and Sasolburg. The site is also only 22-km from City Deep and 25-km from the OR Tambo airfreight terminal. Els saw a relationship To page 20

DUTY CALLS A weekly summary of the main changes to the South African tariff dispensation and amendments to customs and excise legislation. Email dutycalls@nowmedia.co.za.
Supreme Court of Appeal Tariff Classification The Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) has just delivered its judgement on the matter between the Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service (Sars) versus LG Electronics pertaining to a tariff classification (also known as a tariff determination) for screens (also known as video monitors) and tuners separately imported. The court had to consider: (i) Whether screens are incomplete reception apparatus for television in terms of General Rules for Interpretation i.e. Rule 2(a); and (ii) Whether the separate importation constitutes a scheme to defeat payment of legitimate customs duties. The matter was heard on 10 May 2010, and judgement delivered on 28 May 2010. According to the judgement, during the period 2004 to 2006 LG Electronics declared
screens (video monitors) under tariff subheading 8528.21.20. LG Electronics continued to clear the screens (video monitors) under this tariff subheading until July 2006, after which, following an investigation, it was issued with a revised determination in terms of Section 47(9)(d) (i)(bb) of the Customs and Excise Act in respect of the screens (video monitors), classifying them under tariff subheading 8528.12.30. Whereas video monitors were liable for a customs duty of 25% ad valorem, and enjoyed a full rebate of the customs duty on the grounds that they do not incorporate television reception apparatus, the screens (video monitors), under the redetermined tariff subheading, were liable for the same rate of customs duty, but without the benefit of a rebate of the customs duty. In the initial court it was found that “on the facts the screens are complete video
monitors and are used for that purpose”. As to a submission that the separate importation of screens and tuners was a cloak to disguise the reality of the entry of television sets into South Africa with the intention of evading the legitimate levying of the customs duty on such sets, the court examined the evidence and concluded that the facts negated that inference and clearly showed “that the applicant (LG Electronics) imported the screens and tuners in order to service two markets and imported them separately because that is how they are exported by the manufacturer worldwide”. According to the SCA judgement, the crux of the factual findings of the court were that the screens (video monitors) were designed to serve two markets. One for video monitors or information display panels and the other for television sets, and that LG Electronics supplied both markets. The appeal was thus dismissed with costs.
Imminent Lapse of Anti-Dumping Duties – Comment Due Southern Africa Customs Union (Sacu) manufacturers have until 30 June 2010 to comment on the International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (Itac) application in respect of the imminent lapse of anti-dumping duties for: (i) chicken meat portions, classifiable under tariff subheading 0207.14, originating in or imported from the United States of America (USA); (ii) carbon black, classifiable under tariff heading 28.03, originating in or imported from Thailand; (iii) paperboard, classifiable under tariff subheading 4810.92, originating in or imported from South Korea (Korea); and (iv) drawn glass and float glass, classifiable under tariff subheading 7005.29, originating in or imported from Indonesia.

Sars threatens closure of Groblersbridge border to non-Sacu traffic Clearing agents urged to send their complaints in writing By Joy Orlek Clearing agents at Groblersbridge Border post between South Africa and Botswana are up in arms about the threatened closure of the border for all non-Sacu entries. An email distributed by SA Revenue Service last week announced that from July 3 no entries for non-SA Customs Union countries would be processed and that these should in future be rerouted via international border posts like Beitbridge. “If that’s the case I may
as well close down my business,” said Johnny Clifford of Groblersbrug Border Clearing and Forwarding. “We knew nothing about it until this morning (June 2). We probably do about one Botswana entry a week – we export 99% of our loads to the likes of Zambia, Congo and Tanzania,” he told FTW. “It wasn’t discussed in any meeting and although it was mentioned four years ago, there was no further discussion until we received a letter this morning.
“They gave us 30 days’ notice and said we must move to Beitbridge, But we have offices here and contracts for five years – and since we opened five years ago we have just renewed all our contracts.” Daniel Mabolabola of the Groblersbridge Sars office told FTW that the border post was originally designed to facilitate trade between Sacu member states and handle imports and exports from Botswana and Namibia. “But when we opened in 1998 we had an influx
from Zambia and the DRC that overwhelmed the border and resulted in the legislation.” These entries should be processed through Beitbridge, he added. “The systems there are better geared to handle this traffic.” Mabolabola was however sympathetic to the concerns raised by agents. “I understand the frustration this matter has caused which is why we advised in our notification that they should address concerns to management.”
The email urges anyone who has issues to address these in writing to the branch office management – with the promise that they will be lodged with Sars head office. If the ruling goes ahead, it will not only affect clearing agents. The branch will also be overstaffed and the future of its workers will be called into question. While there were plans to introduce the ruling with immediate effect, the branch was keen to give its clients time to object in writing.
Adding the final touches Wholesale airfreight consolidation major AMI is gearing up for growth. The Pomona-based company moved into its new warehouse on June 7, offering double the current warehouse capacity. The facility has CCTV and access control in line with Section 108 regulations. An added benefit of the additional space will be the opening of an off-airport degroupage facility later this year that will operate as a neutral, multi-user facility for agents, MD Mike Todd told FTW.
Business confidence ebbs The SA Chamber of Commerce and Industry Business Confidence Index (BCI) dropped by 2.2 index points between May and April 2010 to read 82. The BCI increased steadily to 84.2 in April but, with the decline in May, it is only 0.8 points higher than in January. This neutralised the gains in business confidence in 2010.
Doubling capacity … AMI’s new Pomona warehouse – operational since June 7.

Renewed call for port privatisation following strike By Ray Smuts Three of South Africa’s largest perishable exporters have called for a review of privatisation of port facilities in the wake of the recent 17-day Transnet strike. Capespan, Colors and Dole SA say in a combined broadside of the intransigence between Transnet and the unions, and in support of Fruit South Africa: “We have lost faith in the ability of Transnet to manage the critical resources of our ports and request a serious reconsideration of the embargo of privatisation of our transport networks, in particular our ports.
“Notwithstanding the vast amounts of money Transnet has invested into its ports, we continue to experience unsatisfactory levels of productivity lacking far behind even other African ports when compared.” The group believes that Transnet will never achieve a return on investment on its infrastructure development if productivity is not improved. “We believe the only solution to this historically chronic problem is to privatise port operations or at least agree to private partnerships as a matter of urgency.” The trio says further:
Time for Transnet to revisit the issue of privatisation? Perishable shippers believe the only way of improving productivity is to privatise port operations or agree to private partnerships.
“South African exporters have been working very hard in difficult economic circumstances to improve
the image of South Africa as a reliable country of origin and supply. “This industrial
action has on its own destroyed that position and competitors have and will fill that void.”
SA better placed than Europe in post-recession environment Sunter upbeat about positive impact of World Cup By Liesl Venter South Africa will find itself far better placed than many European countries in the post-recession global environment. This is according to respected strategist and scenario planner, Clem Sunter, who describes as ‘extremely scary’ the current situation plaguing Europe where the drop of the euro continues to see countries having to be bailed out.

“We live in a world that is constantly evolving, and yet within this evolution history seems intent on repeating itself,” says Sunter. “South Africa is in a much better position than many other countries for various reasons – the first being the fact that we had a much shallower recession and secondly that our banking system, ranked sixth in the world, made some good decisions prior to the financial crisis.” He says despite some
negativity about the positive benefits for South Africa of the 2010 Fifa World Cup, the
‘Don’t wait for the environment to change and then try and react – always be prepared.’ biggest sporting event has impacted positively on the country. “Not only have we seen major infrastructure investment take place, but we have also had the opportunity
to promote the country as a tourist destination. And although fewer people will attend the event than expected, more people know about the country and billions of people are going to be following this tournament on television and will therefore be exposed to South Africa.” While South Africa continues to face political turmoil, the country is relatively stable in his view, offering developing economies such as China
and India a direct entry into Africa. “We remain the gateway to Africa and therefore continue to attract business and offer our companies opportunities. “It is however important that every business in South Africa in every sector continues to strategise and look at the future and plan accordingly. Don’t wait for the environment to change and then try and react – always be prepared.”

Cargo traffic weathers volcanic storm By Alan Peat According to the International Air Transport Association (Iata) international scheduled air traffic results for April, cargo traffic was less dramatically impacted by the volcanic ash cancellations than passenger traffic, but still saw the pace of its recovery slow to 25.2% growth – down from the 28.1% improvement recorded in March. “But the global purchasing managers’ index rose to its second highest level ever in April,” the report added, “indicating that the fundamentals of the airfreight business were not impacted by the crisis. “It is, however, nearing the end of the inventory cycle and freight growth is expected to slow down over the rest of the year.” European carriers showed the weakest growth at 8.3%, down from the 11.5% growth recorded in March.

Opportunities outweigh challenges in a complex market By Joy Orlek For airfreight operators into Africa, it’s a game of challenges and opportunities – and most will agree that the latter exceed the former. “If you’re offering a DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid) service, the customs clearing processes are complex and
varied,” says CFR Freight Johannesburg airfreight branch manager, Dave Gurney. If there’s a customs stop and examination that results in the goods being delayed, storage costs can spiral pretty quickly. Communication is another problem that is often under-estimated. “We take for granted
access to internet and emails, whereas in some African countries their communication system doesn’t support it too well. The problem of uplift is also a consideration. “There are a number of airlines flying around Africa and wherever possible, you want to use reputable carriers with acceptable transit times
– often a difficult ask, particularly because a lot of the cargo is outsize.” Door-to-door requests are also growing and very often a shipment will terminate at a mine site, rather than at say Kampala or Lagos. “You then have to have a reliable means of transporting the shipment from the destination airport to the
end destination – and that’s where a strong agency network makes the difference,” says Gurney. “But our geographical and political position give us a huge advantage and it’s the operators with the network and knowhow who will ultimately succeed in this market of considerable opportunity.”

‘African airports must become economic facilitators’ By James Hall African airports are retarding their nations’ economic growth and thus airfreight business by failing to understand their roles as national economic facilitators. Setting up warehouses, customs offices and cold storage facilities is not enough. African airports must know as much about their nations’ economic data, business climate and trade potential as any Central Bank, and focus on market development as well as tarmacs and passenger lounges. That was the message at UK-based Route Development Group’s African regional conference held in Swaziland last week. The Kenya Airports Authority gets it. They hired George Oyieyo as their marketing and business
development officer for Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, run by KAA. “When airlines ask me what our airport has to offer, I tell them about the Kenyan economy. If they are developing air cargo routes, they want to know that we have a very efficient customs operation and about our incentives like our six hour free parking for their planes. But they also want to hear that we are doing the best business since 2007. Last year Kenya’s GDP growth rate was flat, 0%, but this year it is 2.3%,” Oyieyo told FTW. “Say you are planning an airfreight route, and you are landing at an African airport. You look out the window and you see fields and fields of vegetables, and you know there is a market for these in Europe. But who owns the fields? Is there a way for the produce to get

marketing itself earned it a place on the short list for the Routes Marketing Award to be given at the international confab in Vancouver on September 17. “From our own perspective we want more cargo carriers to come to the Vancouver event. We want airlines that
come to the regional events to bring their cargo managers. Africa is of huge interest to the world,” said Mayes, who noted that before Iceland’s volcanic ash clouded the air transport picture, aviation traffic in Africa was up nearly 40% higher than the world average.

Growing volumes moving to Nigeria Strong agency network is key in Africa By Joy Orlek Recognising the huge opportunities in Africa, CFR Freight has tailored an airfreight consolidation service that suits a variety of customer needs – and is reaping the rewards in the form of growing export volumes. “If you look at global airfreight markets in 2009, Africa maintained growth where more traditional regions plummeted,” airfreight general manager, Dave Graham told FTW. “Africa relies heavily upon South African exports and often the logistics of getting things there by road just doesn’t work – which means air is the only option.” Nigeria is currently the company’s top airfreight destination on the continent,
with fair volumes moving to Zimbabwe, Kenya, Tanzania, Ghana and even as far north as Ethiopia and Rwanda. “We market a two-tier service,” says Johannesburg airfreight branch manager, Dave Gurney. “Customers have the choice of a name-day service, or next available uplift – it’s a very flexible offering with a rate structure to match.” And because it’s a market that’s not without its challenges, a reliable agency network is key, says Graham. “We’ve recently appointed a very good agent in Nigeria and as a result have seen volumes spiral upwards. “This has allowed us to offer a DDU/DDP (Delivered Duty Unpaid/ Paid) service, which a lot of
Dave Graham and David Gurney … growing number of cross-trade requests.
companies are reluctant or unable to do in Africa. “We are offering this service to no less than 14 African countries and are able to do so because we have agents on that side who can recover funds.” DDU is a trend that has evolved globally over the years, says Gurney, where
the shipper pays all costs up to consignee door, excluding VAT, duty and sales tax. “It’s a service we have always offered worldwide.” Another trend that has pushed up volumes for CFR is the growing number of cross-trade requests, says Gurney who along with Graham is upbeat about
future growth into the region – driven in part by the World Cup. “The impact of the World Cup won’t end when final game is played,” says Graham. And CFR Freight is geared to take advantage of the many benefits that will follow.

Airfreight industry regroups after tough 2009 Rates returning to some normality By Liesl Venter After what can only be described as a tough 2009 for the airfreight industry, 2010 is already looking up. This is according to Bryn Woolley, managing director of Airline Cargo Resources, who says volumes were down on all routes and carriers during most of 2009, a year dogged by one of the worst global economic meltdowns of our time. “When there was cargo available, the rate was extremely low. As a GSSA the respective commission structures are extremely important to stay in business and low rates do not pay. 2009 was tough!” A founding member of the Federation of Airline General Sales Agents and a
member of both Tiaca and Iata, ACR represents Air Austral, Air Madagascar and Ethiopian Airlines. While a marked improvement is being seen across the board, Woolley is cautiously optimistic. “I think the economy is improving slowly, exports are on the increase and airfreight rates are returning to some normality but it will not be easy and we still have to plan very carefully for the future,” says Woolley. Experts have agreed the recovery will be slow, and it is therefore imperative that companies like ACR play a proactive role for carriers and clients alike. “I believe that our industry needs to show a united global front in tackling the issues that we
Exports are on the increase and airfreight rates are returning to some normality.
confront on a daily basis such as low rates, security issues, carbon emissions and the growing paperless world to name a few,” says Woolley. “On a local level training is crucial and as a GSSA we are dealing with the cargo community on a
daily basis. We often find the basics lacking with junior staff – which is why training is so important. While our industry needs the youth to carve out a career in airfreight to ensure the industry grows, we must also train them properly.”
Woolley says there was a big demand for chartered operations to both Europe and Africa. “This was obviously triggered by the volcanic eruptions that caused huge backlogs globally but especially in Europe.”

Ndola volumes picking up – as mining recovers By Joy Orlek If there’s a single constant in the airfreight market into Africa, it’s that market’s unpredictability. “It’s still sluggish,� says Airlink Cargo MD Alwyn Rautenbach. “Mining hasn’t recovered fully since the recession, but it’s definitely looking a lot more positive.� Routes like Ndola – which serves the mining industry – have slowed down significantly but it’s
definitely picked up this year and we hope that Ndola in particular will return to its former glory. Zimbabwe and Mozambique were growth markets last year, according to Rautenbach, and a growing number of specialised products are moving into South Africa from Madagascar. While cargo growth is encouraging, there have been no announcements regarding service changes.
“But Airlink is continuously looking at servicing routes with more frequency and bigger aircraft,� said Rautenbach. “After problems with our J41 fleet being grounded, the network was consolidated – we rethought routes and dropped less popular routes like Mafikeng. A complete restructuring is under way and from that will certainly come new routes and more frequencies on certain routes,� he said.
A major event on the Airlink calendar has been the May 1 relocation to La Mercy Airport in Durban. Rautenbach believes that it was unfortunate that the facility was built without consultation with the airlines. “Airlines are tailor-making their premises to what they require but it could have been a lot better had they consulted with us. “The airport is situated quite far north of the existing
airport and we are not sure how business will adapt to it – whether people will make other plans or whether courier companies will drive out there to drop their cargo. “Time will tell – but as far as the passenger airport is concerned it is excellent.� In the meantime, Rautenbach is quietly optimistic about the outlook for the future, with Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Madagascar featuring high on its growth agenda.
Mansberg “I don’t understand why regional airlines do not do interlines and take some frequencies out. “On a particular route we have the national carrier operating twice daily in addition to two other SA carriers. None of them have a passenger load factor of more
that 50% which makes little sense.� According to Von Mansberg, the rates to many countries in the SADC are now lower than a domestic flight to Cape Town. And while there have been some bursts of activity, they’re generally sporadic, he added.
Gerd von Mansberg ... ‘Too much capacity on many African routes.’
‘Expect another lean year’ Despite a rally in October last year, with volumes picking up and showing a lot of promise, it wasn’t sustained and the year ahead could well be another lean one for the airline industry. That’s the view of The Cargo Connection managing director Gerd von Mansberg
who believes that as long as the rand remains strong and many carriers fly for ego and not profit it will take the economy a long time to grow into the capacity. The challenges in Africa are many, he added. “There’s too much capacity on many African routes now,� says Von

airfreight into africa
Africa lags global growth By Alan Peat The African airfreight market is still the poorest performer in air cargo growth. According to the International Air Transport Association (Iata), all regions except Africa saw 20%-plus growth in freight volumes in the first quarter. However, these average inbound/outbound figures disguise a lot of difference in directional markets, it added. Iata analysts pointed out that Asia-Pacific remains the fastest growing region, driven by rapid regional economic growth. But the
30%+ growth of air freight in Europe contrasts with the 11.7% growth in freight tonne kilometres (FTKs) carried by European airlines. This suggests to the association that most of the market growth is in the Asia to Europe direction, and carried by Asia-Pacific airlines. Globally, the first quarter international airfreight growth was 32.4%. By regions the increase was 12.4% in Africa; 36.3% in Asia/Pacific; 30.6% in Europe; 28.5% in Latin America; 21.7% in the Middle East; and 35.4% in North America.

More and more freight agents are buying into the value of training especially in light of Security 108 and 109, says Dries Viljoen, divisional chief executive of AAFSA. “It cannot be underestimated and business has clearly come on board in the past year – particularly with regard to Part 108 and 109 AVSEC training,” says Viljoen. AAFSA, a division of Bidair Services, offers a range of training courses and risk assessments to the industry.
“It is clear that many freight agents are taking these regulations very seriously and are doing their best to ensure compliance. Parts 108 and 109 ensure that employees are trained in dangerous goods handling – and a reduction in the number of dangerous goods incidents is one of the positive outcomes that has become evident,” Viljoen told FTW. He believes there is growing commitment by management to staff training, despite the financial constraints of the past year – and he believes the outlook

for the year ahead in terms of training can best described as very promising. “Especially in view of the fact that executive management, despite of the financial constraints they have experienced over the past fiscal year, has invested heavily in the training of their staff. Not cutting down on their training budgets has been a bold decision for many companies.” And these are the companies, says Viljoen, who will reap the benefits of improved security and safety over the next two to three years.
Suspended Transnet Freight Rail chief executive Siyabonga Gama has been found guilty on all charges against him including tender irregularities and the irretrievable breakdown in his relationship with Transnet. The detailed 200-page findings of the independent chairman in the disciplinary hearing were delivered to both parties at the weekend. In the final stage of the proceedings the chairperson will be requested, after hearing further submissions from the parties, to recommend an appropriate sanction, Transnet spokesman John Dludlu said. Gama’s disciplinary action involved alleged irregularities in a locomotive

Once the disciplinary hearing is settled, it is expected that a permanent group chief executive of Transnet will be named – a position that has been vacant for more than 15 months.

New Automotive Investment Scheme gets the thumbs up By Alan Peat The SA vehicle manufacturers have welcomed the Automotive Investment Scheme (AIS), according to National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of SA (Naamsa) director, Nico Vermeulen. This followed minister of trade and industry, Dr Rob Davies, approving the guidelines of the scheme – part of the Automotive Production and Development Programme (APDP), which is intended to replace the Motor Industry Development Programme (MIDP) . It is a subsitute for the Productive Assets Allowance (PAA) scheme of the MIDP. The AIS is intended to grow and develop the automotive sector through investment in new and replacement automotive

models, Vermeulen told FTW, as well as the manufacturing of automotive components. “We welcome the announcement of a very necessary bit of support in the form of investment incentives,” he added. Vermeulen sees it as supporting the R20-billion the motor industry is expected to invest in the next few years. “And this could be more,” he said, “if other manufacturers come to
SA. It certainly encourages companies to start making investments even before the APDP starts in June 2013.” The target for the industry expansion is to be producing 1.2-million units by 2020. It will produce 450 000 this year, and is projected to hit 590 00 units by 2012. “So this is quite a big target for 2020,” said Vermeulen, “but demand will certainly continue to grow for SA to supply the world market.”
Acrid and acrimonious elements were much in evidence in Cape Town last week with containerships lining up post-Transnet strike, a grounded oil tanker catching fire and several crews crying foul over non-payment – even physical threats. All in all, Cape Town was not a happy place.
Table Bay was dotted once again with containerships after the disastrous 17-day stoppage, heavy delays inevitable to shippers, along with whopping additional costs to all and sundry. FTW gleaned at the start of Cape Town Container Terminal operations last Friday (June 4) that delays of more than 220 hours were in the offing in certain instances.
World Cup heavy vehicle bonanza May was a bumper month for heavy commercial vehicle industry with a 23% increase in sales of trucks, buses and vans in South Africa compared with the previous month. “The improvement has,
predictably, been mainly driven by deliveries of the vehicle types most likely to be involved in servicing the 2010 Soccer World Cup,” said Casper Kruger, vice president of Hino in South Africa.

Solving the perennial ‘imbalance’ conundrum Passengers and cargo complement each other for us – SAA By James Hall “Competition for airfreight cargo is intense, even though airfreight is a ‘feast or famine’ business,” says Gordon Bevan, VP of the global route development firm ASM. Speaking at the UK-based Route Development Group’s African regional conference in Swaziland last week, he said it was more complex than for passengers. “With passengers you establish or estimate the number of people, and the airline controls the distribution. The passenger decides where to go, chooses an airline and price. The big argument with cargo is who controls the freight? A whole trail of people influence from where cargo originates, where it goes and how,” said Bevan. And with a paucity of data and answers to guide their cargo routing decisions to African destinations,
Bevan said some air carriers felt the effort of setting up a route was not worth the difficulties. The “perennial problem with African cargo,” Bevan said, “is what do you put on a southbound flight? Fields full of cash crops go north but what comes south?” He said air cargo carriers “are being as creative as possible. They are trying different cargoes going to multiple stops. It’s like a tramp steamer business. A plane leaves the EU with consumer goods to the Middle East, and then Middle East goods go to African merchants. These companies are stitching together three or four contracts.” South African Airways manager for network planning in Africa and South Africa, Keith Green, said: “Passengers and cargo complement each other for us. The passengers go to a destination, determining routes. Say the passengers

are going to build something. What cargo is needed for the job? Our cargo group looks into this. Our 747 to Angola carries a lot of passengers and a lot of freight, which is fresh produce – veggies, fruit – and bottled water. You have these massive companies like Total with many labourers needing to be fed and clothed. A lot of routes we fly are based on this concept – high passenger numbers and cargo volumes.

“Air cargo is in demand. A lot of countries we fly to don’t have what South Africa has got. There are a lot of foodstuffs going to Zimbabwe. It’s more economical for them to fly it from South Africa. To Angola it’s goods for the offshore oil work. Zambia it’s goods for the mines. To Tanzania perishables are sent to make up for shortages of locally grown product,” said Green. There are however no
open skies agreements in Africa, and this makes it very difficult for airlines to expand into Africa. “Each airline needs a bilateral company to government agreement for the number of seats and cargo,” said Green, who noted that the value of the Routes conference, which brings airport and air carriers together, is that it allows civil aviation authorities to bring airlines’ needs to the attention of their home governments.

R20m counterfeit consignment nabbed ‘Pots’ of Bafana Bafana jerseys confiscated By Alan Peat Customs in Durban harbour have just nailed another container load of suspected counterfeit Bafana Bafana soccer jerseys. According to information released to FTW by SA Revenue Services (Sars), the container was a consignment of 33 000 jerseys – valued from their price tags at just under R20-million on the retail market. The box, declared to be a load of pots, was
examined by officials and found to hold one row of pots, with the rest of the container filled with the illegal jerseys. It has been detained for misdeclaration. This is only one of a number of smuggling cases investigated by the authorities. For example, it followed a bust on March 19 when a tip-off alerted customs and the SA Police Service (SAPS). They raided a warehouse in Durban and seized a truck-load of
undeclared sports clothing items, again including counterfeit soccer jerseys. Customs at OR Tambo International Aiport (Ortia) have also been busy detaining suspected counterfeit SA soccer jerseys. Over an 11-day period at the end of April they nailed various consignments coming in from Qatar, Hong Kong and China. They detained a total of 26 984 Bafana Bafana strips – with 17 970 of them finally destined for Swaziland and Botswana.

SA’s oil pollution laws in urgent need of review Mexican oil spill should raise alarm By Ray Smuts As the world looks on in horror at BP’s desperate attempts to remedy the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, officially the worst such disaster in US history, alarm bells should be ringing in South Africa’s corridors of power to move urgently to enact welloverdue oil pollution laws. Memories are short but three of the world’s worst spills have occurred off the South African coast, and it’s just a matter of time, say shipping experts, before another ship comes adrift. Without legislation to increase the limits for oil pollution claims, South African claimants would be able to recover approximately R170 million from the owner of the ship and its insurer. Maritime lawyer, Marius Diemont, says government has been tardy in getting the necessary legislation enacted, an issue the Maritime Law Association

has been pushing for some time. “This is a really urgent issue. Should there be a major oil pollution casualty off the South African coast, the taxpayer will bear the brunt of these costs.” South Africa acceded to the 1969 Convention of Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage (‘Civil Liability Convention’) by passing an oil pollution act in 1976, later named the Marine Pollution (Control and Civil Liability) Act. The effect of this act, explains Diemont, is that it pegged in time claims to 1976 levels. Shipowners have a maximum liability of 14 million SDRs (Special Drawing Rights) for any one oil pollution incident, approximately R170 million in today’s value. In the meantime, the international community has moved forward and increased the limits of the Civil Liability Convention
Johannesburg:
to 89.77 million SDRs – approximately R1 billion. “Although Parliament approved the protocol to implement the higher limits of the Convention in 1997, the necessary legal instruments to give effect to the Convention’s provisions have not yet been implemented.
“This means that any claim from an oil pollution incident would be capped at the 1976 level.” Under the Civil Liability Convention, claimants are entitled to seek redress from registered shipowners for oil pollution damage, the total amount of compensation limited to the tonnage of the
into line with the current Civil Liability Convention.” Draft bills to make provision for this were published in April last year. Two of those are understood to have been finalised but cannot be implemented until the Merchant Shipping (International Oil Pollution Compensation Fund) (Contributions Bill) 2009 has been finalised. Only then will all the bills enter into the parliamentary process to be passed into law. South Africa’s worst disaster occurred on August 6, 1983, when the Castillo de Bellver exploded following a fire off Saldanha, spewing about 252 000 tonnes of oil into the ocean.

Diemont says the International Oil Pollution Compensation (IOPC) Fund was established to pay those unable to seek compensation under the provisions of the Civil Liability Convention. “The total liability of compensation payable by the IOPC Fund is two million SDRs (approximately R2 billion), which may be increased to 300 million SDRs (around R3 billion) in certain instances. “However, for the IOPC Fund to pay full compensation to South African claimants, South Africa must first amend its legislation to bring the domestic liability regime

Help or hindrance?
The shippers, the truckers, the cleaners and even the packers have one – in fact, one could argue, industry associations are two a penny nowadays. With many associations struggling to retain membership while also endlessly trying to convince already overworked company employees to join up as volunteers in an effort to try and satisfy the diverse needs of all its members, the question arises – do these organisations still have a role to play in post-recession business? FTW’s Liesl Venter spoke to three industry experts to determine the importance of industry associations.
Thato Tsautse, CEO of the South African Association of Ship Operators and Agents (Saasoa).
Catherine Larkin, industry expert and owner of CVLC Public Relations Company.
Tony d’Almeida, who is extensively involved with the South African Association of Freight Forwarders (Saaff), the RFA, Business Unity South Africa, NBC RFI and Tetaw.
Do industry associations still have a role to play Associations, first and foremost, provide a muchneeded voice for industries, says Catherine Larkin, industry expert and owner of CVLC Public Relations Company. Involved with the Road Freight Association (RFA), the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (Ciltsa) and the Public Relations Institute of South Africa (Prisa), Larkin believes the joining of an industry association should be high on the priority list of any company. “Industry associations have a vital role to play in that they help to raise the standards that benefit a company, its employees and customers, while also influencing public policy.” Add to that the fact that they represent the industry to organised labour, government and other stakeholders, associations provide an important lobbying and unified voice that advances any industry’s agenda while also ensuring co-operation with similar organisations internationally. Tony d’Almeida, who is extensively involved with the South African Association of Freight Forwarders (Saaff), the RFA, Business Unity South Africa, NBC RFI and Teta, says not only are they obligatory elements when one looks at the Acts governing bodies such as Teta, but they are also

valuable as they ensure you are part of a “tribe” that not only benefits the company, but more often the career of the individual. Thato Tsautse, CEO of the South African Association of Ship Operators and Agents (Saasoa), says there is no denying the importance of a unified voice in “bringing the attention of other stakeholders to bear on pressing matters affecting the industry as a whole”.
‘Associations provide industry with a unified voice in bringing the attention of other stakeholders to bear on pressing matters.’ – Thato Tsautse
‘Industry associations have a vital role to play in raising standards and influencing public policy.’ – Catherine Larkin
Also involved in the Maritime Law Association Tsautse says a fragmented approach from numerous industry role-players achieves little, bar the promotion of parochial interests. “Associations also serve as a platform to facilitate easy access to the industry players by other stakeholders.”
Tony d’Almeida: Members of associations have access to influencing outcomes, and also first hand information, which allows for crucial capacity building. Associations also play a major role when it comes to representing the industry in terms of wage and employment conditions as well as skills development and implementation of the various government acts such as broad-based black economic empowerment. Thato Tsautse: Associations provide member companies with a sense of comfort, knowing matters of concern are being championed on their behalf.
What is the point of joining an association, and what does it do for a member? Catherine Larkin: It allows for access to current information from a wide industry network, while membership also offers
Measuring success Any organisation is only as strong as the combined strength of its members, say the experts. “Key deliverables of the association must be met on a regular basis and a revision of all the main

objectives, in line with changing or evolving needs, must be undertaken as and when necessary,” says Tsautse. “An association that commands respect of its main stakeholders and the very members it represents is the sign of an effective association.”
‘Being part of the ‘industry tribe’ can make a difference to your company.’ – Tony d’Almeida Larkin agrees saying that pro-active participation is extremely necessary. “Getting the most out of any professional association membership is like anything else in life – you are going to get out as much as you put into it. Those members that actively participate in the association’s structures and activities benefit the most. Membership-based organisations thrive on the input of their members.” And associations can be fun, says D’Almeida. “Important knowledge is often gained and value derived from the interaction and networking that comes with participating in an association. I believe those reconsidering their membership to an organisation should do so on a risk analysis, but measuring its success ought to be viewed through the collegiate perspective.”

There were no sirens or alarms as firemen took it easy after the Turkish bulker Seli 1, aground off Blouberg for eight months, caught fire in the accommodation quarters during welding operations last week. A decision was taken to let her burn herself out. The ship, with a coal cargo of about 9 000 tonnes still on board, was abandoned by her Turkish owners and has been stuck in Cape Town ever since. The future of the crew of the ageing tanker, Hector, which entered False Bay with engine failure several weeks ago, has yet to be determined. The vessel’s Syrian owners are reportedly either in Cape Town or en route to settle overdue wages but they are under the misapprehension the vessel will be allowed to sail after that, debt of nearly R1m having already accrued.

CMA CGM kicks off new services
Stéphane Courquin... meshing of three dedicated services between Asia and Africa.
At official functions in Durban and Johannesburg, five executives from the sister lines CMA CGM and Delmas, launched the group’s third service linking Asia and Africa. Today (June 11), the first day of the 2010 Fifa World Cup in SA, the two lines have added a new weekly
call in Durban on both the eastbound and westbound legs of the WAX service linking Asia to West Africa. “This, “ said Denis Laue, Delmas vice-president, “is our response to the expanding trade from China to West and South Africa, and to the growing demand from SA exporters to Asia.
“The WAX service, which deploys 11 vessels of 2 600-TEU capacity, will also offer worldwide connections to the group’s services from Durban, in addition to those already available from Port Kelang or Colombo.” The new port rotation will be: Qingdao, Shanghai,
Ningbo, Fuqing, Chiwan, Port Kelang, Durban, Walvis Bay, Tema, Apapa, Lome, Abidjan, Durban, Colombo, Port Kelang, Qingdao. “This new call reflects the determination of CMA CGM to complement the meshing of its three dedicated services between
Inland port to expand their facilities significantly, and Tambo Springs is due to start construction in two years.” Transnet spokesman, John Dludlu, agreed that it was part of the group’s thinking. “What our presentation did was to outline the areas where we are considering public/private partnerships,” he told FTW. “And one of these was inland terminals.”

one of three highlighted in Transnet’s recent presentation to parliament, joining other proposed schemes at Centre Rand, north-east of Johannesburg and Pyramid, north of Tshwane. “They recognise that these will come on stream progressively,” said Els. “But, within a 10-year horizon, they have got

Asia and Africa and creates synergy in this fast-growing market,” Stéphane Courquin, CMA CGM’s deputy vicepresident, told FTW. It joins the weekly SAES service, which is run in a partnership with China Shipping, and links South America, Durban and the Far East on the eastbound leg. It also follows the recent upgrading of the group’s weekly AFEX service, which directly connects north and central China to Cameroon, Benin and Nigeria and calls at the port of Maputo in Mozambique on the way back to Asia . “Thanks to these developments,” said Rhett van Zyl, the MD of CMA CGM in South Africa, “we can now offer clients three direct weekly services between Asia and Africa, enhanced port coverage with 11 ports in Asia and 13 ports in West and South Africa, and competitive transit times.”
