REPORT . Presentation 5th Biomass Pellets Trade & Power 23-25 Sep, 2014 - Seoul,Novotel Ambassador Gangnam
Tapping on the Growing Biomass Demand in China, Japan & South Korea According to Enerone’s recent report, Korean wood Paper manufacturers in Japan such as Oji Paper and pellet imports grew by almost 300% in November 2013 and 2014’s Q1 trade has been very lively with over 280,000 tons of imported wood pellets. Still, USD23.8 million of RPS penalty was imposed in 2013 as the six power supplying subsidiaries of Gencos recorded only about 60% fulfillment of the Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS). So with the liberalization to allow imports of other pelletized biomass (e.g. from Oil Palm Pellet, Torrefied Pellet) into Korea from July 2014, this growth is set to continue as the Korean gencos’ co-firing requirement is estimated to be higher than the current imported volume. Japan is expected to increase importation of energy chips and wood pellets. Up until this year, Japan has imported only very limited volumes of wood pellet, primarily from Canada, but it is likely that import volumes of both pellets and energy chips will increase in the coming years. Major oil wholesaler Showa Shell Sekiyu is spending USD164 million to build Japan’s largest biomass power plant of 49MW in Kawasaki near Tokyo
Nippon Paper are hopping on the Japanese government’s feed-in tariff (FIT) bandwagon by plugging into the biomass power generation with the wasted wood chips from forest thinning. Major Japanese and Korean energy and trading companies are already exploring the opportunities to import pellets from Australia, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Canada and the US. To meet this almost insatiable appetite, global suppliers are cranking up their production supply and logistics chain for export-ready pellets. Foreign investments and indigenous partnership are also fast-tracking the development of wood pellet production in Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam as well as other high calorific value biomass fuel such as Palm Pellets, PKS, etc. Bio-Coal, or torrefied Pellet, has also evolved from R&D to commercial productions globally and here in Asia! The competition is intensifying and the action is right here in Asia. Attend CMT’s Biomass Pellets Trade & Power and secure deals and partnerships.
230+ Delegates, 25+ Speakers, 20+ Partners, Sponsors and Exhibitors from 25+ Countries The above sums up the success of CMT’s biomass event last year. And we are now thrilled to announce our 2014 series - 5th Biomass Pellets Trade & Power on 23-25 September, 2014 in Seoul, South Korea, co-hosted by EnerOne.
Investors seek approval for biomass power projects in Vietnam source of income for the local sugar industry that is Vietnam Institute of Energy under the Ministry of Industry alternative reeling under the decline of sugar prices which is said to fall and Trade recently said that over ten investors have shown keen interest in biomass power projects in Vietnam, which will have an average capacity of 10 MW each. These developments comes in after Vietnam’s Prime Minister’s decision (March, 2014) to support the development of biomass power projects in the country.
further in the future. As many as 40 sugar refineries might have to invest in biomass power plants in Vietnam as an alternative source of income. Meanwhile, Can Tho Sugar Joint Stock Company has revealed that it has the required funds to start a 30MW bagasse-fueled power plant with an investment of US$1 million for each MW. Vietnam Institute of Energy said it is committed to build power The company expects its bagasse-fired power project to commence operations in September 2017, if everything goes plants of 5MW to 30MW each. But it requires guidance to implement these projects. The proposed projects are likely to as per plans. drive public and private investment in the biomass power sector. Vietnam already has a few bagasse-fueled power plants that Although Vietnam, currently, doesn’t have any licensed or listed sold biomass power to Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN) for 4 biomass power projects in its national electricity development cents per kWh. Now the prices have risen to 5.3 cents. Plus, in plan, the country has a potential to produce 150 million tons of line with the decision to support biomass power projects, EVN is biomass per year which is equivalent to 50 million tons of crude oil. required to buy biomass power. More on biomass power will be discussed at 5th Biomass Pellets Trade & Power on 23-25 September, 2014 in Seoul. The proposed biomass projects will also prove to be an

Expectation is moderate mainly because large part of the fleet is trading at a slow speed. Any significant increase in freight rate will motivate ship owners to increase the speed thereby increasing vessel supply.

WHY ATTEND THIS MASTERCLASS? “Supply Chain disruptions have been found to cut the share price of impacted companies by an average of 7%” – Accenture, 2013 Inventories play an important role in any organisation. In fact, it is not uncommon to have 10-55% of an organisation’s total invested capital in inventories. To make matters worse, approximately 2-15% of such invested capital is often tied up in slow, obsolete, impaired, damaged, and/or excess on-hand inventory. With these facts in mind, you will recognise that well-managed inventories provide a rational approach to operations by facilitating the smooth flow of processes, effectively utilising facilities, and implementing sound logistics and supply chain management practices. With a proven inventory management system, you can transform your inventory into a proactive force that lowers your inventory investment, reduces carrying costs, boosts confidence in physical supply and distribution service levels, and increases overall customer and user satisfaction. Without a doubt, it is important to understand inventory control and its relationship to operations before choosing an inventory system or method designed to fulfil your operational objectives. Additionally, warehousing and distribution methods are changing dramatically! New approaches and value-added warehousing concepts offer opportunities to cut costs substantially while improving overall operations. Many organisations are now focusing on the impact of the warehouse’s bottom-line and are trying to closely align warehouse operations with the organisation’s supply chain. Salvo Global’s 3-day intensive Masterclass on “Advanced Forecasting, Inventory and Warehouse Management” has been designed to bring you up to full speed on all the important areas of inventory decision making, including the important precursor – good forecasting. The focus of this programme is about how to plan, implement, and use proven practices that work. There is a strong focus on approaches and principles that will have the most dramatic effect on improving your organisation’s service levels, reducing costs and investments associated with inventory, and increasing turnover rate with fewer stockouts. If you want to benefit from learning about the latest inventory practices and are looking for ways to develop clear, specific, strategic inventory plans or are seeking to improve your current inventory management, this seminar is for you.

LOGISTICS First boring machine delivered in Australia
Blue Water
has delivered the first of four tunnel boring machines (TBM) for the Sydney North West Rail project in Australia - the largest public transport infrastructure project in the country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have created a complex door-to-door solution. In addition to mastering the local transportation from the factory in Shenyang, China, also completed the ocean transport and the final delivery to site safely. We knew up front that we would face the biggest challenges during the 200 km haulage transportation in Australia, where TBM1 - named Elizabeth - was transported through local suburbs. That is why we always put together experienced teams for these kinds of projectsâ&#x20AC;?, says Sebastian Stephan Schilde, Project Manager from Blue Water Singapore. Through a huge team effort between the Blue Water offices in Shanghai, Marseille, Melbourne and Singapore, Elizabeth was safely delivered in the North West of Sydney. Re-assembled, with a length of up to 120 meters and a total weight of 900 tons, the machine will be part of digging a 15 km twin tunnel system. The contract for this project was agreed earlier this year by Lionel Guilbaud, from Blue Water Marseille and NFM Technologies from France - a leading provider of this type of equipment. TBM no. 2 and 3 are currently en-route to Australia as well as TBM no. 4 will be ready for collection the factory in the end of September. bws.dk

The state-of-the-art facility, covering almost 3,000 square meters, located in direct proximity to the Leipzig/Halle airport and serves as a competence center for the transport, transport preparation, temporary storage, and transport follow-up of active and passive temperature controlled pharmaceutical products. Investment volumes in the new facility amount to around 3.4 million euros and have resulted in the creation of thirty new jobs. “With the opening of this new life sciences and healthcare competence center we are further expanding our network of temperature controlled stations to support our customers’ global expansion and growth aspirations,” said Angelos Orfanos, President, Life Sciences and Healthcare, DHL Customer Solutions & Innovation. “Providing quality service to life-saving products is a big responsibility, which we are committed to by continuously investing in sector-specific expertise and infrastructure.” The facility includes a 2,175-square-meter warehouse and office space of 600 square meters. In July 2014, it was certified in accordance with the good distribution practice guidelines, a quality system for logistics centers that handle medicinal products, and offers two temperature controlled areas for pharmaceutical products that must be kept at a constant temperature between either 2 to 8 degrees or 15 to 25 degrees Celsius The facilities are equipped with numerous temperature and humidity sensors that immediately sound an alarm should conditions fall outside of established parameters.

DHL Thermonet provides seamless temperature visibility along the supply chain, 24/7 proactive monitoring and intervention based on pre-determined touch points and DHL’s RFID SmartSensor technology, that is GDP certified. The new building in Leipzig has also been audited in line with additional standards and been accredited as a qualified envirotainer provider, thus ensuring competent handling of Envirotainer containers and certification in accordance with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards for quality and environmental management. In the future, thirty employees will organize the transport and customs clearance of air freight and ocean freight shipments mostly for regional customers. The logistics center will also serve as an air freight transshipment hub for pharmaceuticals going to Germany, Poland and Slovakia. On-site staff will coordinate transport solutions for the automotive, chemical and technology industries as well as the life sciences and healthcare sectors.

LOGISTICS New automotive logistics center for more than 20 million euros in Shenyang Together with a Chinese partner, DB Schenker is pushing ahead
with the creation of a joint venture for logistics services in Shenyang, northeastern China. A 45,000-square-meter logistics center is planned, which will distribute spare parts and supply local car production. The project is to invest a total of more than 20 million euros. Construction is due to start in 2015. The project remains subject to approval from the authorities. Shenyang is a major focus for foreign and Chinese investment and one of the largest centers of the Chinese automobile industry. DB Schenker has been working in the city since 2003. Some 25 employees offer the full spectrum of freight forwarding services. They have also acquired special expertise in logistics services for the automobile industry, including supplying production lines. For example, DB Schenker packs car parts in a large logistics center in Leipzig and sends these to China, where a major automobile manufacturer uses them in its production processes. “This joint venture is a further important step on the way to expanding our leading position in contract logistics in China too,” said Dr. Thomas C. Lieb, Chairman of the Management Board of Schenker AG. “It is part of our strategy to have a clear presence in the Chinese growth regions and provide top-quality logistics services for our customers all around the world.” dbschenker.vn

LOGISTICS GEFCO Signs New Jaguar Land Rover Limited Contract
GEFCO has signed a new
contract with Jaguar Land Rover Limited for the movement of new Range Rovers between UK production plants, storage compounds and ports of exit. The new deal follows a review by Jaguar Land Rover Limited of its domestic carriers. GEFCO is investing in a fleet of new transporters (MAN tractor and LOHR Euro 5 units) specifically tailored to Jaguar Land Rover Limited’s transportation needs. Due to the increased number of vehicles that can be carried, the new fleet will also deliver environmental benefits; using fewer transporter miles to deliver the same number of vehicles. The new transporters will all be fitted with the QUALCOMM tracking system, which tracks the real time movement of vehicles from collection to delivery; enabling more efficient route planning. The expansion of GEFCO’s connection with Jaguar Land Rover Limited means that GEFCO will increase its market share in the automotive sector. Speaking about the contract, John Stocker, Finished Vehicle Logistics Director, GEFCO UK, said: “We are delighted to be building on our association with Jaguar Land Rover Limited. As a company, GEFCO is committed to providing our customers with the most efficient, cost effective and sustainable services, tailored to meet business needs. With this new contract, we are looking forward to continuing to offer the very highest service levels to Jaguar Land Rover Limited.” gefco.net

LOGISTICS 140 tonnes heavy-duty transport through the city centre of Fredericia
On 4 and 5 September, a 38 meter long pipe and a
21 meter long container successfully scraped through the narrow streets of Fredericia. Two transporters were loaded with several tonnes when a distillation tower and a circulation tank were transported through the city centre of Fredericia. The starting point was the port of Fredericia and the destination was DONG Energy’s crude oil terminal just outside the city.
It was the utility company Trefor and Give Sværgods (a Danish company specialising in the transport of heavy cargo) which were in charge of the unusual and sizeable cargo. The cargo was accompanied by police escort, and an audience had turned up to see the spectacular cargo cross the streets. Prior to the transport, each turn had been well considered in advance and every meter had been measured in detail. Traffic lights and street lighting had been dismantled, and no parking zones had been implemented several places in the city.
Previously, the two distillation towers had been transported to DONG Energy’s crude oil terminal, and Thursday’s cargo transport was the third and last delivery of this type. dongenergy.com

Hong Kong, 9 September 2014 – More than 8,100 trade visitors from 64 different countries attended ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA and Asiafruit Congress at Hong Kong’s Asia World-Expo Center last week. The record visitor numbers marked a 24 per cent growth on last year’s attendance at Asia’s leading fresh fruit and vegetable trade show, but again it was the quality of the visitors that defined the success of the event. “This is the best show we have attended,” said Jeff Scott, CEO of the Australian Table Grape Association, which was exhibiting within the Australia pavilion. “We have had non-stop traffic to our stand and virtually all of the people coming by have been existing or potential buyers. We’ve had visitors from almost every Asian country approach us, and it’s great that there are nearly 80 table grape growers here from Australia.” Senior buyers and executives from leading food retailers were out in force at ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA. One of them was Sumit Saran, head of international foods for Indian retail giant Future Group. “It’s not just the quality of the people you meet at ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA that makes this show so special, it’s the quality of the time you get in those meetings,” said Saran. “It enables you to really do business and plan programmes.” Other major retailers represented among the visitors included Aeon (Japan and Malaysia), Carrefour (China), Central Food Retail (Thailand), CR Vanguard (China), Cold Storage (Singapore), Dairy Farm/Wellcome (Hong Kong), GCH Retail (Malaysia), Lotte Mart (South Korea), Metro Group (China), NTUC Fairprice (Singapore), ParknShop (Hong Kong), Ranch Market (Indonesia), RT Mart (China), Spinneys (Dubai), Tesco Group Food (China & Thailand), The Food Hall (Indonesia), Walmart (China and India) and Yonghui Superstores (China). Exhibitor numbers up by almost 30pc Visitors to ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA found an exhibition that had grown by almost a third. Some 478 companies from 38 different countries exhibited at the trade fair on 3-5 September, an increase of 28 per cent on last year’s edition, while bookings for stand space grew by 25 per cent. Asia once again accounted for the largest percentage of exhibitors on a regional basis, with 12 different Asian countries making up 34 per cent of the exhibitor numbers. Europe retained its share of exhibitor numbers at 25 per cent, while Latin America increased its presence to 15 per cent. Oceania (11 per cent), Africa (8 per cent) and North America (7 per cent) completed the global picture. China remained the single largest country in terms of exhibitor numbers, with 94 companies exhibiting, while Italy held onto second place with 39 companies. Australia surged into third place with 34 exhibitors, marking a 54 per cent increase on last year, and Egypt also ramped up its presence, moving up into fourth place with 31 exhibitors (up 47 per cent).

PORT & TERMINALS Ports in Indonesia gain momentum to expedite development
INDONESIA has made
remarkable progress in setting the framework for further development of its ports after the promulgation of the 2008 Shipping Law. As the world’s largest archipelago, this ASEAN member country is projected to double its GDP by 2020, increasing from US$900 billion in 2012 to $1.9 trillion by 2020, according to a Port Strategy report.

Rajiv Biswas, Asia-Pacific chief economist for IHS Global Insight, was cited by Port Strategy as saying: “ [The current] congestion reflects a number of factors, including demand drivers, notably Indonesia’s sustained rapid growth in GDP and trade flows since 2004.” He urged the Indonesian to pay much attention in port planning and operations. He said although the abovementioned five ports “are a key strategic priority for government initiatives for port development, the Indonesian government will also have a much larger task of upgrading its wide network of other ports, which are crucial for intra-island trade.”
There is no disputing, whatsoever, the determination with which Jakarta wants to make a break with the “past” when port authorities in the country typified by Pelindo I to IV were but disparate entities, fragmented loosely and which had all the appearance of a lack of an authoritative coordinating voice to govern port activities and port development. A typical case in point is the ceaseless congestion and recurring bottle necks in Tanjung Priok. For years shippers have complained of the lack of draft, berthing, storage and space, whenever vessels call.

“A private entity may prove better”, argued a source close to PT Arpeni, one of Indonesia’s largest shipping companies, adding in the same breath that regulators and port authorities will possibly work closer to sort out niggling issues in port administrations.

Siemens, ABP Get Green Port Hull Consent Hull City Council’s Planning Committee has given its consent to the proposed works at Alexandra Dock, Green Port Hull, following the submission of detailed plans by Associated British Ports (ABP) and Siemens plc in June this year. In March Siemens and ABP announced a combined investment of £310m to develop pioneering new wind turbine production and installation facilities in Yorkshire. The project comprises new project construction, assembly and service facilities at Green Port Hull and a new rotor blade manufacturing facility in nearby Paull, in the East Riding. The two sites will create 1,000 new jobs and several hundred roles during construction. In June detailed planning applications were submitted for works at Alexandra Dock to enable development of the nacelle pre-assembly, project construction and logistics and distribution facilities and offices. Today’s approval will enable construction to commence later in the year at Alexandra Dock. Planning applications for works at the adjacent Paull blade site are targeted to be submitted later in 2014. Welcoming the news, Finbarr Dowling, Siemens project director for Hull said: “We are delighted that the plans for Alexandra Dock have been approved today by Hull City Council. These works represent an important step in the overall programme which will be progressed in coming months and years.” “Many people have worked exceptionally hard to get the project to this stage and we are grateful for this commitment and the support of the people of Hull. We will continue to work closely together with our partners and stakeholders to ensure that we continue to make good progress in the delivery timeline.” “This is a key project for the region, for the UK wind industry and for the UK in helping to deliver the future low carbon economy.” ABP Director Humber, John Fitzgerald said: “Following that momentous day in March, this decision marks another important project milestone our Green Port Hull development and we welcome it. We’re working closely with all parties to finalise a project that has the potential to deliver something truly fantastic for this city and the

Humber region.” Councillor Steven Brady from Hull City Council said: “Today’s decision marks a crucial step forward in our plans for establishing Hull as the UK’s Energy Estuary. We are delighted with the plans presented by Siemens and ABP for the proposed wind turbine assembly and service facility at Alexandra Dock and we look forward to working with our partners on this key project. This will not only make a huge difference to the city’s economy, but also help transform green energy and ensure that Hull is the market leader for the UK’s offshore wind industry.” “We are working closely with Siemens to ensure that the benefits from this landmark investment are maximised in terms of increased business activity and high quality employment. Coming fully on stream during the City of Culture celebrations, 2017 will be a truly transformational year for Hull.” “Through the £26m Green Port Growth Programme, Hull City and East Riding Councils’ are working alongside partner organisations to deliver funding and training programmes to ensure that local people are equipped with the necessary skills to take advantage of the 1000 new jobs at Green Port Hull.

PORT & TERMINALS The EU ports reform is losing its bearings
In March, MEP Knut Fleckenstein, the rapporteur on the European Commission’s proposal for a Regulation on
Market access to port services and financial transparency of ports announced that the legislative procedure for this particular file would be suspended until the new European Parliament would be in place following the European election of May. Since then, EU Member States have been discussing the Commission’s proposal for a Port Regulation in the Council of Ministers. The Italian Presidency of the Council aims at striking a deal with the European Parliament at first reading and discussions are moving fast in that direction. Unfortunately, in order to achieve this, the text currently under consideration by the Council is slowly inching towards the initial position of the Parliament, which was itself a watered down version of the Commission’s proposal. Member States are contemplating excluding cargo handling and passenger services from the Regulation while the exclusion of pilotage remains uncertain. Council deliberations are also focusing on whether the Regulation should only apply to major EU ports (TEN-T core network ports). In light of these developments, the scope of the Regulation could be drastically reduced, turning the EU ports reform into little more than an empty shell. “It is extremely disheartening to see EU co-legislators gradually empty the already weak Commission proposal of any substance for the port user community. The opportunity for a meaningful reform of EU ports is slipping through our fingers and at this stage the EU shipping industry’s interest in supporting this proposal is indeed very limited” commented Patrick Verhoeven, ECSA Secretary-General. In addition to reducing the scope, EU Member States are also contemplating a weaker consultation procedure of port users for all matters related to port charging policy, connections with hinterland, efficiency of the administrative procedures and environmental issues. What is more, Member States are further diluting the Commission’s initial proposal by backtracking on the issue of the need for an independent authority that would monitor and supervise the correct application of the Regulation. “European shipowners urge Member States to reconsider their approach and refocus on the raison d’être of this legislative procedure, i.e., delivering a reform that will improve the efficiency and increase the transparency of EU ports” he concluded.

PORT & TERMINALS ICTSI Manila builds capacity New, fully equipped MICT yard, ICDs grow Luzon capability
Despite a rise of over 40% in cargo movements since the lifting of the Manila truck ban, anticipation of a surge in trade with the sustained robust growth of the Philippine economy, and following approval from the government to develop more yard and road infrastructure, International Container Terminal Services, Inc. (ICTSI) is fast-tracking the construction of new yard facilities at the Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) and at a new 21-hectare inland container depot in Laguna. ICTSI said it is speeding up the MICT expansion and inland depot, which will jointly add more than 20 percent to the existing static yard capacity without impacting traffic patterns. “Even in its earliest stages of development, the new ICD alone will add new laden, empty, and warehousing capacity to the market, and will deliver a further 250,000 TEU capacity to Furthermore, the expansion at the MICT and the ICD will be MICT,” says Christian R.

This ICD is only one of two 20-hectare properties that ICTSI has ICTSI and partner lines are further connecting Subic to Japan, purchased to be developed into ICDs. Development will begin Singapore, China, and further on, Europe and the Middle East. in November with the first phases available for use in February 2015. “These plans have been on the drawing board, ready for execution, and we were just waiting for government concurrence. Now that we have it, and we have the resources, we can move quickly to fast-track these projects,” added Gonzalez. Gonzalez further revealed that ICTSI also has plans and the attendant resources to build a new berth: “A new berth is pivotal for incremental capacity to address economic expansion for many years down the line. We hope the government will re-visit this plan for a new berth.”
A study recently published in Port Calls noted that timely investments of the country’s port operators have enabled the total port capacity to keep pace with growth in trade, even as it noted that the existing capacity are not yet 100-percent utilized. Titled Port and Road Infrastructure for Greater Luzon Trade, the study reported that capacity utilization in both MICT and South Harbor without the hindrance of any road regulation remains below 80 percent.
Close to 1.8 million TEUs passed through the MICT last year, representing 72 percent of its total capacity of 2.5 million, while The new MICT yard will be equipped with a minimum of six rubber tired gantries (RTG). Notwithstanding, the purchase of almost 922,000 TEUs went through South Harbor or 77 percent still more RTGs and rail mounted gantries for the Laguna ICD is of its 1.2 million capacity. also being planned. “Today overall available international container terminal capacity in Manila is 3.7 million TEUs per year against a While these two yards are being developed, an adjacent temporary empty handling area at the MICT will also be put throughput in 2013 of just over 2.7 million TEUs, highlighting that timely investment by the private sector has kept the into operation by November 1, 2014. Without any further changes to the road network or additional demand-supply ratio well in balance,” the report said. truck restrictions, the completion of these new yards will raise the overall capacity of Manila’s two international ports to 4.2 million TEUs. Asian Terminal Inc.’s South Harbor has a declared capacity of 1.2 million TEUs. Meanwhile, ICTSI will be incorporating rail provisions into the new MICT yard to augment the 21-hectare Laguna ICD. Thus, the ICD will be linked to the MICT by road, and later, rail, to ensure the most seamless transfer of cargo from the Port of Manila to economic zones south of Metro Manila.

“The development of new yard and road facilities at MICT, for which foundation work has already been undertaken, will raise annual international terminal capacity to 3 million TEUs per year at MICT and to 4.2 million TEUs per year overall for the international terminals,” it added. ictsi.com

The week also featured a Good Housekeeping Treasure Hunt, encouraging tidiness in the workplace by Hong Kong’s largest cargo terminal operator – concealing 40 envelopes containing prizes or motivational has held its first ever Safety Week for its entire 2,500-strong messages in locations throughout the giant facility, where they would only be discovered by thorough tidying. workforce, to promote safer working practices and workplace behaviour. The event will now be held annually. Hactl Safety Week built on the success of a single-day pilot event in 2013. This year, a team from the company’s Quality and Safety Section supervised a full programme of events, devised to take place within the work environment, in order not to disrupt Hactl’s 24/7 highvolume handling business. A countdown to Safety Week was displayed on a giant monitor in SuperTerminal 1, and details of the programme timetable were displayed throughout the week to maximise awareness. Senior management of Hactl also played an active role in promoting participation to their staff, and every member of staff was issued with a “Safety Passport” in which they could read the objectives, see a detailed programme of Safety Week and collect stamps for each element in which they participated – receiving gifts for over 20 stamps. The Safety Week programme incorporated different themes and topics for each day, including Good Housekeeping & FOD Prevention, Heat Stress Prevention and Tractor & Forklift Driving Safety, Accident Prevention, Pre-work Exercise, Manual Handling Safety, Behavioural-based Safety Observation (BBSO) and “Pointing and Calling” Safety. Highlights of the week included a Safety Slogan Competition with a top prize of HK$800 in shopping

In addition, a Safety Quiz was held in which teams from each department competed head to head for a Safety Cup. Questions focused on the Hactl Safety Guidelines, to encourage staff to study it in detail. On the final day of Safety Week, staff received a talk on health, followed by a “Green Lunch” of healthy food. During this, departmental teams competed for a “Best Teamwork Award”, decided by the strength of their cheering and support, and an on-the-spot live performance to present their safety message. The Safety Cup and HK$3,000 worth of shopping vouchers were won by Ground Services. In future, it has been decided that any department winning the trophy for three consecutive years will keep it. The Safety Slogan prize was won by Jim Wai Yip of Operation Services. The “Best Teamwork Award” and a HK$500 prize also went to Ground Services, in recognition of the meaningful slogan they produced and their inventive use of a Guitar solo to support their entry! In a related development, the final day of Safety Week saw Hactl receive the prestigious Hong Kong Occupational Health and Safety award, winning against some of the biggest names in Hong Kong industry and commerce.

SEA TRANSPORT MCI eyes “revolution” of mango trade
Ready for hibernation: The mangos were placed in boxes and loaded in reefer containers behind a protective CA curtain shield.
The Ivorian test was carried out in Star Cool CA containers with the cooling machine integrated in front
A recent test in Ivory Coast shows how West Africa’s mango trade can be extended by special containers that
place the fruit in hibernation. Farmers in Ivory Coast struggle with a mango harvest season that is as short as the fruit is sweet. “For a 4-6 week period in April and May, the country is flooded with good mangos, but it ends abruptly when the rainy season starts. From then on, the mango just starts decaying,” explains Mathew Shed, container manager in the specialist shipping company Africa Express Line (AEL). “We were approached in April by Eolis, a CF logistics company, who asked for some kind of smart solution that would keep the fruit delicious and marketable for a longer time,” he adds. The solution turned out to be special reefer containers. With quick help from a container leasing company and a container depot in Antwerp, Belgium, Star Cool containers were upgraded to work with controlled atmosphere, in short known as CA, and sent to Ivory Coast. Star Cool CA reefers adjust O2 and CO2 levels, which in turn keep the fruit’s respiration and ripening under control. “We knew how Star Cool CA extends the storage life of bananas and avocados. Mangos have similar respiration rates so the success of the mango test is really not a big surprise,” says Mathew Shed. “I think there is a new business opportunity for farmers whose excess fruit never makes it to the market in time,” Mathew Shed says. Anders G. Holm from Maersk Container Industry, the maker of Star Cool CA, is delighted. “Combined competences along the logistics chain can save food and open up business,” says Holm. “I’ll even go so far as to say this could become a mango revolution.” mcicontainers.com
After four to nine weeks of Star Cool CA hibernation, the Ivorian mangos were still delicious.

SEA TRANSPORT Indonesia accedes to fouling and bunker treaties
H.E. Mr Teuku Mohammad Hamzah Thayeb,
Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Indonesia to IMO, met today (11 September) IMO Secretary-General Sekimizu to present Indonesia’s instruments of accession to the International Convention on the Control of Harmful Anti-fouling Systems on Ships and the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage. imo.org
International Convention on the Control of Harmful Anti-fouling Systems on Ships Adoption: 5 October 2001; Entry into force: 17 September 2008 The Convention prohibits the use of harmful organotins in anti-fouling paints used on ships and establishes a mechanism to prevent the potential future use of other harmful substances in anti-fouling systems. Anti-fouling paints are used to coat the bottoms of ships to prevent sealife such as algae and molluscs attaching themselves to the hull – thereby slowing down the ship and increasing fuel consumption. In the early days of sailing ships, lime and later arsenic were used to coat ships’ hulls, until the modern chemicals industry developed effective anti-fouling paints using metallic compounds. These compounds slowly “leach” into the sea water, killing barnacles and other marine life that have attached to the ship. But studies have shown that these compounds persist in the water, killing sea-life, harming the environment and possibly entering the food chain. One of the most effective anti-fouling paints, developed in the 1960s, contains the organotin tributyltin (TBT), which has been proven to cause deformations in oysters and sex changes in whelks. Under the terms of the AFS Convention, Parties to the Convention are required to prohibit and/or restrict the use of harmful anti-fouling systems on ships flying their flag, as well as ships not entitled to fly their flag but which operate under their authority and all ships that enter a port, shipyard or offshore terminal of a Party. Anti-fouling systems to be prohibited or controlled are listed in an annex to the Convention, which will be updated as and when necessary. The Convention includes a clause which states that a ship shall be entitled to compensation if it is unduly detained or delayed while undergoing inspection for possible violations of the Convention. Annex I states that all ships shall not apply or re-apply organotins compounds which act as biocides in anti-fouling systems. This applies to all ships (including fixed and floating platforms, floating storage units (FSUs), and Floating Production Storage and Offtake units (FPSOs). The Convention provides for the establishment of a “technical group”, to include people with relevant expertise, to review proposals for other substances used in anti-fouling systems to be prohibited or restricted. Article 6 on Process for Proposing Amendments to controls on Anti-fouling systems sets out how the evaluation of an anti-fouling system should be carried out.
International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage (BUNKER) Adoption: 23 March 2001; Entry into force: 21 November 2008 The Convention was adopted to ensure that adequate, prompt, and effective compensation is available to persons who suffer damage caused by spills of oil, when carried as fuel in ships’ bunkers. The Convention applies to damage caused on the territory, including the territorial sea, and in exclusive economic zones of States Parties. The bunkers convention provides a free-standing instrument covering pollution damage only. “Pollution damage” means: (a) loss or damage caused outside the ship by contamination resulting from the escape or discharge of bunker oil from the ship, wherever such escape or discharge may occur, provided that compensation for impairment of the environment other than loss of profit from such impairment shall be limited to costs of reasonable measures of reinstatement actually undertaken or to be undertaken; and (b) the costs of preventive measures and further loss or damage caused by preventive measures. The convention is modelled on the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969. As with that convention, a key requirement in the bunkers convention is the need for the registered owner of a vessel to maintain compulsory insurance cover. Another key provision is the requirement for direct action - this would allow a claim for compensation for pollution damage to be brought directly against an insurer. The Convention requires ships over 1,000 gross tonnage to maintain insurance or other financial security, such as the guarantee of a bank or similar financial institution, to cover the liability of the registered owner for pollution damage in an amount equal to the limits of liability under the applicable national or international limitation regime, but in all cases, not exceeding an amount calculated in accordance with the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims, 1976, as amended.*

SEA TRANSPORT FIRST DAMEN CRANE BARGE TO HEAD TO URUGUAY
Damen Shipyard Group’s new transshipment Crane
Barge (CBa) 6324 has got off to a strong start, with an order for the first unit from a client in Uruguay. The barge features the proven Liebherr CBG 350 crane as standard and on this occasion has been outfitted with a unique mooring spread from Vryhof Anchors and Damen Anchor & Chain Factory (AKF). The fast delivery time for the CBa 6324 is the result of the characteristic Damen approach of customising built-forstock products to clients’ requirements. The standardised 63 x 23.5 metre crane barge is available globally and designed to operate reliably almost anywhere in the world. It has the versatility to handle either dry bulk cargo or containers and can be outfitted with a self-propulsion system. Customised river mooring system “The crane barge for our client in Uruguay will be transshipping large quantities of soy or iron ore from barge convoys coming down the Hidrovia ParanáParaguai to ocean-going Panamax vessels bound for Europe and Asia,” says Alex Westendarp Knol, Damen’s Sales Manager Americas. To be independent from quay operations, Damen worked together with its client and partners to deliver a customised 8-point mooring spread “The eight anchors will secure, in pairs, four mooring buoys at the CBa 6324’s location in Nueva Palmira, Uruguay,” Mr Westendarp Knol continues. “The first mooring buoy will be used for mooring a convoy of between 12 and 16 barges delivering approximately 30-40,000 tonnes of cargo. When a Panamax ship arrives, it will moor on the river between the second and third mooring buoys. The CBa 6324 will moor against the ship and travel alongside it to transship the cargo from the convoy barges supplied by a small tug from the first buoy. Once these barges are empty, the same tug will moor them at the fourth mooring buoy ready for a pusher tug to take them up river again.”
Vryhof Anchors and Damen Anchor & Chain Factory (AKF) delivered the 8-point mooring spread. Vryhof Anchors was able to very swiftly fabricate the eight 4-ton STEVPRIS® Mk6 anchors, thanks to their experienced personnel and flexible production processes. The Mk6 is capable of holding up to 100 times its own weight. Damen Anchor & Chain Factory (AKF) delivered the eight anchor-chain line assemblies from stock, determining the final lay-out and dimensions in close cooperation with the client Handling 20,000 tonnes per day The CBa 6324 has onboard accommodation for up to twelve people including a pantry, office and changing room as well as cabins. A central feature of the design of the CBa 6324 is Liebherr’s reputable CBG 350 crane. The crane, has a grab load capacity 35 tonnes at 12-36 metre outreach and a hook load capacity of 45 tonnes at 12-36 metres. The crane is expected to be handling approximately 20,000 tonnes per day using the high quality Verstegen Grabs. One for soy of 31m3 and one for iron ore with a capacity of 10.5m3. A very important feature of the crane is its automatic ‘high accuracy’ registering system, which measures the total amount transshipped. Another unique feature of the project is a custom-made 70t, three leg towing bridle for connecting the CBa 6324 to a tug during transportation. The main bridle consists of two 20 metre legs, one 5 metre leg, one triplate and three shackles for connecting the legs by means of the triplate. Damen Anchor & Chain Factory (AKF) manufactured, welded and tested the tailor-made assemblies, witnessed and certified by Lloyd’s Register. Each leg integrates stud link anchor chains, common links, masterlink and open endlink. To meet Damen’s commitment to fast delivery at a competitive price, there are around 20 pontoons currently on stock and even more are under construction in Damen supervised yards around the world. Frank Koppelaar, Product Director Pontoons & Barges at Damen, says: “We are continuously developing and building new pontoon and barge types, which we sell from stock to shorten delivery times to weeks and in some cases even days.” damen.com

SEA TRANSPORT World’s First LNG Containership Receives ME-GI Engine
San Diego, CA – Late last month,
NASSCO engineers placed the world’s first dual-fuel slow speed engine into the World’s First Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) powered containership. The ME-GI engine represents the next generation of technology that will open the door to a cleaner and safer shipping industry, particularly in the United States. Doosan Engine built the 8L70ME-C8.2GI under license from the designer MAN Diesel and Turbo. The engine weighs 539 tons. TOTE Shipholdings, Inc., a subsidiary of TOTE, is the first company to use these engines in their vessels. The two new Marlin Class ships, being built by General Dynamics NASSCO’s shipyard in San Diego will be used in the Puerto Rico trade and are expected to enter the trade in late 2015 and early 2016 respectively. “This large slow speed (two stroke) dual fuel engine is the first of its kind in the world” noted Phil Morrell, Vice President of Commercial Marine Operations for TOTE Services, the division of TOTE that is responsible for ship’s technical management and crewing. “Using this engine in our new Marlin class vessels will not only drastically reduce our SOx, NOx, particulate matter and greenhouse gas emissions as a result of using liquefied natural gas, but it will also improve our efficiency meaning these ships will require less energy to travel the same distance and help preserve the environment.” “Landing the world’s first low speed, dual fuel engine on the lead Marlin Class ship signifies a shift into a new era of green ship technology. NASSCO is proud to partner with TOTE to construct these cutting edge ships” stated Parker Larson, Director of Commercial Programs for General Dynamics NASSCO. Hull 495, the first of the two Marlin-Class vessels being built by NASSCO will be completed in early 2015.

The beams were loaded onto and discharged from the ship by means of Ro-Ro – providing a perfect example of the flexibility of the RollDock vessels. The multi-position decks and adjustable ramp heights allowed the RollDock Sea to compensate for the different quay heights in the loading and discharging ports. roll-group.com
Libyan chaos prompts UAE authorities to ban further cargo shipments there MAERSK unit Safmarine has informed customers that it will not accept cargo - including transshipments - from the United Arab Emirates to Libya in compliance with UAE port authorities. This is in response to the deteriorating security situation in the North African state.
The Libyan government has failed to control well-armed militias who backed the rebellion that toppled Muammar Gaddafi, but then staked claims to territory, oil and other resources. Diplomats have gathered in Madrid after clashes in Benghazi killed nine and wounded 30. Thus, containers bound for Libya will be held at the port and will not be loaded on the designated vessels - even if they have been load-listed, said Safmarine. The containers can be taken out from the port after the hold is released from customs upon the shipper’s request, said the shipping line.

RAIL TRANSPORT DHL expands multimodal rail service in China
DHL Global
Forwarding, Freight announced today new developments in its route offerings between Asia and Europe for intermodal shipments. A true door-todoor service, DHL’s new scheduled block train service offers an average transit time of 14 days from Suzhou to Warsaw along the trans-Siberian North Corridor. “Suzhou is a strategic departure point for Jiangsu and it is a huge benefit for our customers to have direct access to inter-continental rail links rather than having to go via Chengdu. Being able to offer multiple loading points across China creates many opportunities for our customers, which is why we are seeing so much interest in multimodal services,” said Roger Crook, CEO DHL Global Forwarding, Freight.
environmentally friendly solutions can also expect a fall of CO2 emissions of up to 90% compared to airfreight. DHL’s road/rail multimodal service between Asia and Europe combines rail and road transportation modes to link the two continents via its intermodal hub in Małaszewicze, Poland. DHL Global Forwarding, Freight launched the service in July 2010 following the completion of more than 120 successful single container trial shipments. Earlier this year, DHL introduced the first temperature-controlled China-Europe rail service, providing customers with precise climate control of containers, regardless of the weather, on the lane from China to Europe going via the West corridor between Chengdu and Lodz.
This expansion complements the existing daily single wagon service from Shanghai to Europe, also along the North Corridor, and the weekly block train service from Chengdu to Europe along China’s West Corridor rail line through Kazakhstan to Europe. The expansion taps on Suzhou’s strategic location within Jiangsu Province, an important production area for engineering, manufacturing, high tech, automotive and the retail sector with growing de- Additionally, European customers will soon enjoy even broader access to the Asian market.

RAIL TRANSPORT CROSSRAIL BEGINS LAST EAST LONDON TUNNEL
Tunnel machine Ellie has started her 900 metre
journey from Limmo Peninsula, near Canning Town, towards Victoria Dock Portal in east London. Over the next three months the 1,000 tonne machine, named after four-time Paralympic champion Ellie Simmonds OBE, will complete one of Crossrail’s shortest but most complex tunnels, in close proximity to the Jubilee line, Docklands Light Railway, River Thames and River Lea. The drive will complete tunnelling on Crossrail’s southeast spur, which stretches from Stepney Green to Abbey Wood. Ellie’s sister tunnelling machine, Jessica, completed the first of the two twin-tunnels from Limmo to Victoria Dock earlier this summer.
TUNNELLING MACHINE ELLIE LAUNCHES SECOND CROSSRAIL TUNNEL DRIVE
Crossrail will complete its rail tunnels next year when tunnel machines Elizabeth and Victoria, currently in Whitechapel, reach Farringdon in central London. Crossrail’s new rail tunnels are 83 per cent complete and the project remains on time and within budget. Andrew Wolstenholme, Crossrail Chief Executive said: “Huge amounts of planning go into every tunnel drive, and this one is no different. We are deploying some of the world’s best engineering talent and machinery to safely build these new tunnels.” Ellie has already successfully completed a tunnel from Pudding Mill Lane, near Stratford, to Stepney Green. The tunnel machine is 150 metres long and 7.1 metres in diameter and is staffed by teams of 20 people. The concrete and steel tunnel segments are made in Chatham, Kent and transported to Limmo by river barge. Joint Venture Dragados Sisk is constructing the eastern tunnels between Pudding Mill Lane and Stepney Green, Limmo Peninsula and Farringdon, and Victoria Dock Portal and Limmo. It is estimated that Crossrail will generate at least 75,000 business opportunities and support the equivalent of 55,000 full time jobs around the UK. When Crossrail opens it will increase London’s rail-based transport network c apacity by 10%, supporting regeneration and cutting journey times across the city. Crossrail services are due to run through central London in 2018. For further information contact the Crossrail Press Office on 020 3229 9552 or email pressoffice@crossrail.co.uk
About Crossrail The total funding available to deliver Crossrail is £14.8bn. The Crossrail route will pass through 40 stations and run more than 100 km from Reading and Heathrow in the west, through new twin-bore 21 km tunnels to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east. Crossrail is being delivered by Crossrail Limited (CRL). CRL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Transport for London.

ROAD TRANSPORT MERCEDES-BENZ FUTURE TRUCK 2025
Revolution
on the motorways: goods transport to become more efficient, safer and more connected in the future The technology of tomorrow is already reality at Daimler Trucks. The Mercedes-Benz Future Truck 2025 constitutes a revolution in efficiency, safety and networking, a revolution for road traffic and its infrastructure, for professional driving and for the road transport sector. This is not a new truck, but rather the key element in the interconnected transport system of the future. It is being developed as part of the “Shaping Future Transportation” initiative by Daimler Trucks to conserve resources and reduce emissions of all kinds. Other aims are to ensure the highest possible level of traffic safety and to boost networking with intelligent data management considerably for tailor-made vehicle and service solutions. The prototype demonstrated the exciting capabilities of the Future Truck 2025 back in the summer at speeds of up to 80 km/h in realistic traffic situations on a section of the A14 motorway in Magdeburg, Germany. Now the thrilling exterior and interior of that same vehicle are being revealed. The tractor unit combined with an aerodynamically optimised trailer celebrates its world premiere as a study at the International Commercial Vehicles show (IAA). Exterior: flowing forms with a light show In terms of design, the Mercedes-Benz Future Truck 2025 study combines function, efficiency and emotion in a fascinating way. It adheres to the Mercedes-Benz design philosophy of “Sensual Purity”. Soft, slightly curved surfaces that are near-natural represent both efficiency

and emotion. Inside and outside, the exceptional visual appearance symbolises the great leap from classic truck to autonomous transport vehicle of the future. Innovative forms and the lighting engineering of tomorrow send the conventional truck cab into the future. Interior: calming design for a new way of working The sensual purity of the Future Truck 2025’s calming design is also reflected by the interior. Flowing lines from the exterior are taken up again inside the cab. Mercedes-Benz already creates a visual separation between the areas for driving and living in the cabs of long-distance transport. In the future the cab will also include a more comfortable and functional working area for autonomous driving phases. Exciting lighting effects inside the cab also underline the distinctive character of the Future Truck 2025. When the truck is travelling autonomously, the driver may recline their seat and also turn it by 45 degrees into the space, allowing them to consciously adopt a relaxed, comfortable working position. At the same time, indirect lighting illuminates the interior without glare. To communicate from the future workplace the driver uses a tablet computer. Radar sensors and a camera scan the surroundings The technology behind this exciting façade is no less impressive. The Mercedes-Benz Future Truck 2025 is not, for instance, part of a platoon. It does not need to be daisy-chained to other vehicles either. Radar sensors and camera technology enable the Future Truck to drive autonomously, independently of other vehicles or central

ROAD TRANSPORT DOLL shows innovative strength and universality at the IAA Commercial Vehicles Fair 2014
From 25th September to 2nd October the
international commercial vehicle industry will meet on the occasion of the 65th IAA fair themed „Driving the future“. Visitors are welcome to recognise the importance of unbeatable innovation capacity and proven trailer technology at the DOLL booth n° N30 (outdoor area). This year, the main focus in heavy haulage will be on functionality and customer benefit. Having this in mind, DOLL has been combining pioneering spirit, passion and the feeling for customers’ needs to design a universal trailer with optimum flexibility as well as best driving performance: the first 6-axle panther low-loader featuring a detachable 2-axle dolly which can be converted into a semi low-loader version. From the beginning the panther trailers with the first friction-steered double wishbone axle worldwide developed by the Germany-based vehicle manufacturer have been a symbol for quality providing a total stroke of mm, a steering angle of 55° and the lowest loading height WABCO smartboard. of only 780 mm. There is no doubt that the exhibit with a payload of 70 t will also bring a lot more efficiency. Within a very short period of time the low-loader can easily be modified into a semi low-loader with a loading height of 850 mm by lifting the extendible low-bed by 45 cm and mounting it between the dolly and the running gear of the rear axle. Furthermore, the detachable gooseneck with modifiable load capacity enables the trailer to be hauled by an economic 3-axle truck. In addition to that DOLL will present a 3-axle VARIO platform semi-trailer – a versatile all-rounder and therefore a must-have for every heavy transport vehicle fleet. As the internationally renowned heavy haulage logistics company UTM has yet been relying on the quality of DOLL trailers for several times, they have ordered three more of this type in mega version.
With well-designed system solutions and innovations which are being developed for different kinds of transport tasks DOLL is able to illustrate once again its technology leadership and to ensure itself the crucial lead on the market.

TECHNOLOGY Hyundai comes up with Skybench concept to boost volume of large boxships
THE South Korean shipbuilder Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) has proposed a new design feature to increase the box intake of large containerships at the world’s largest maritime trade fair in Hamburg. The patented concept, called “Skybench”, consists of a three-deck accommodation block straddling deck containers and sliding fore and-aft on side rails located on the top of two side casings. Designed to be installed on twin-island ships, which feature a semi-forward deckhouse, Skybench allows for almost an entire bay of deck containers to be loaded underneath the ship’s bridge and above the bunker tanks. Designed for a 14,000-TEU and for a 19,000-TEUers, Skybench will add an extra 300 TEU for a typical 20-row wide ultra large containership and of up to 450 TEU for a 23-row wide 19,000-TEUer, reports Alphaliner. Hyundai suggests its Skybench would be ideal to compensate the intake loss that gas-powered ships have compared to heavy fuel oil (HFO)-fuel vessels, due to the large size of liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanks. However, the concept can be applied to HFO-fuelled vessels as well. Hyundai also claims that Skybench could introduce a survival concept in case of emergency, since the sliding accommodation block is detachable and would float if the vessel should sink. hhi.co.kr

Indonesian cement demand in the first nine months of 2014 rose by 3.4 per cent YoY to 42.993Mt, latest data from the Indonesia Cement Association (ASI) reveals. Strong gains have been seen in the past months. During September alone, sales increased by 5.7 per cent to 5.632Mt, compared to 5.329Mt in the same month of last year.
However, while the the fourth quarter is traditionally strong as large-scale projects need to be completed by year-end, industry commentators caution that demand may be hampered by present political uncertainties and the start of the rainy season cementchina.net

GLOBAL Singapore to Share Experience in Urban, Transportation and Insfrastructure Planning with Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia
The Singapore
Cooperation Enterprise (SCE) and Temasek Foundation, Singapore (TF) today announced a training partnership with the Makassar City Government, Indonesia to share Singapore’s experience in urban, transportation and infrastructure planning. An Agreement was signed today in Makassar between Mr. H. Ibrahim Saleh, Secretary of Makassar City Government and Mr. Kong Wy Mun, Chief Executive Officer from Singapore Cooperation Enterprise. It was witnessed by Dr. H. Syahrul Yasin Limpo, Governor of South Sulawesi, Mr. Danny Pomanto, Mayor of Makassar City and a senior representative from Temasek Foundation. The programme will be supported by Temasek Foundation with a grant amount of SGD $587,840 and co-funded by the Makassar City Government with an amount of SGD $248,750. Makassar City, spreading over 176 sq km, has a population of 1.3 million. Constrained by limited land area, the Makassar City Government (Pemerintah Kota Makassar) has set an objective to refine its current Master Plan and transform Makassar into a world class city in the near future. In 2012, Mr. Danny Pomanto participated in the “Temasek Foundation Leaders in Urban Governance Programme” hosted in Singapore and had a broad overview of Singapore’s urban development model. Following that initial experience, the Makassar City Government mooted the idea of working in partnership with Temasek Foundation and SCE to provide an advisory and capacity building programme for the city’s officials to support its effort in developing an enhanced urban, transportation and infrastructure strategy for Makassar City. SCE, as the lead agency, will aggregate relevant Singapore experts to share with the Makassar City government officials on Singapore’s integrated urban development experiences, specifically in areas related to urban planning, housing, landscape planning, transportation, reclamation and infrastructure planning. The 18-month programme, which will consist of a series of capacity building workshops, will commence in September 2014. It is envisaged that at the end of the programme, the Makassar City officials will be able to apply their new knowledge to develop and customise effective solutions for the Integrated Master Plan in Makassar City. Mr. Kong Wy Mun, Chief Executive Officer of SCE said: “We are happy to have the strong support of Temasek Foundation in sharing Singapore’s experience in urban, transport and infrastructure planning with the Government of Makassar City. We hope that through this programme, our Singapore experience can help to facilitate the Makassar City Government towards achieving success in their Integrated Master Plan vision. We also seek to deepen our relationship with Indonesia and look forward to more cooperation opportunities.” “This initiative marks the first urban management capability building programme that Temasek Foundation is working in partnership with the Makassar City Government. With this programme, the local city planning officials will learn new models and frameworks to enhance urban management strategies to support Makassar City’s growth as a key economic and trading hub in eastern Indonesia,” said Mr Benedict Cheong, Chief Executive Officer of Temasek Foundation, Singapore.
