1. China: Shipping execs being investigate             三位前任和现任中海高层也被调查, 此乃针对航运大亏填政府继中运之后的反贪污行动……

Three former and incumbent senior executive directors from companies owned by China Shipping (Group) Company, one of the country's leading shipping and logistics group, have been placed under investigation by government authorities, a media report said.
This is the latest anti-corruption move made by the government in the shipping sector, which is suffering serious losses.
Mao Shijia, former general manager of China Shipping Tanker Company Ltd, Liu Houping, deputy general manager of production and operation department at China Shipping Tanker Company Ltd, and Jia Hongxiang, former vice chairman of China Shipping Container Lines Co, were under investigation, insiders were quoted by the China Business News as saying.
"It is hard to make judgments about whether the investigations of the three senior executives will have a negative impact on China Shipping," an insider who wanted to stay anonymous told the Global Times.
But the insider said that "it is difficult for the listed companies of China Shipping to turn profits from losses this year, partly because of the sluggish international trade conditions."
Efforts by the Global Times to contact China Shipping several times Wednesday were not successful by press time.
The investigation of China Shipping (Group) Company's senior executive directors come as China's central government has been focusing heavily on fighting corruption.
The Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) approved a decision on comprehensive and deep reform of the anti-corruption system earlier this month.
Wang Qishan, secretary of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, also reiterated this reform during his tour of Central China's Hubei Province Friday.
The investigation followed another anti-corruption move against executives from China Cosco Holdings Co, a listed company that is owned by the country's largest shipping and logistics group.
Xu Minjie, executive director at China Cosco Holdings, was under investigation by related departments and had resigned for "personal reasons," the company said in a statement on November 9.
Top executives of State-owned companies in other sectors were also caught in anti-corruption investigations recently. Several senior officials from China National Petroleum Corporation, including Jiang Jiemin, former head of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and the former chairman of the company, were also under investigation for alleged corruption.
Two of the listed companies owned by China Shipping both reported losses in the third quarter this year, with China Shipping Container Lines Co reporting a net loss of 1.67 billion yuan ($274 million) and China Shipping Development Co Ltd seeing a net loss of 1.19 billion yuan in the first three quarters.
China Shipping Development ascribed its poor business performance to the sluggish global shipping environment in its quarterly report.
The share prices of China Shipping Development declined by 0.47 percent Wednesday, compared with a 0.82 percent rise of the benchmark Shanghai composite index.
The cargo throughput at China's ports reached 900 million tons in October, rising by 4.5 percent year-on-year, 4.2 percent points fewer compared with the same period of the previous year, according to data released by the Ministry of Transport Wednesday.
But an industry watcher still had an optimistic attitude about the outlook of the shipping industry despite the current poor business performance and corruption scandals reported by the media.
"The shipping and shipbuilding industry has already seen a slight rebound at the end of this year compared with the same period of last year," Qian Xinnan, deputy director of the China Association of the National Shipbuilding Industry, told the Global Times.

Giant explosion caused by workers repairing oil pipe leak kills 35 people in China

PUBLISHED:| UPDATED:

Oil leaking from a ruptured pipeline exploded in an eastern Chinese port city, killing at least 35 people, injuring 166 and contaminating the sea in one of the country's worst industrial accidents of the year

The leaked oil triggered two massive blasts, one of them tearing up concrete along a city road in Qingdao.   

Powerful: The explosion ripped through streets and overturned cars

Devastation: Oil leaking from a ruptured pipeline in Qingdao also injured 166 and contaminated the sea in one of the country's worst industrial accidents of the year

Black smoke rose above gigantic fuel silos and darkened much of the sky.

The pipeline owned by China's largest oil refiner, Sinopec, ruptured early Friday and leaked for about 15 minutes onto a street and into the sea before it was shut off.

Hours later, as workers cleaned up the spill, the oil caught fire and exploded in two locations, the city government said.

One eyewitness told Beijing News that he was driving past Qingdao's Huangdao district when he felt the force of the blasts, and then realized the ground had fractured.

The air was pungent, many cars on both sides of the road were overturned and there was dark smoke rising in the distance, he said.

'It felt like an earthquake, and I was dumbstruck,' he said, adding there was chaos on the street as people ran, panicking, in all directions.

Authorities have ruled out terrorism, but the incident remains under investigation.

      

Powerful: The explosion ripped through streets and overturned cars

Massive blast: The force of the explosion caused widespread damage

Deadly: The blast turned concrete roads into rubble following the accident

Medical staff carry an injured person to hospital following one of the country's worst industrial accidents this year. Aftermath: Pedestrians walk through the rubble in the streets. This police office was turned sideways by the explosion.

A statement from Sinopec said: 'We will investigate the incident with responsibility and give timely reports.'

The Qingdao Environmental Protection Bureau said barriers had been set up to contain the oil as it spread into the sea, but a mixture of gas and oil from a storm sewer exploded and caught fire.

More than 32,000sq ft of sea surface was contaminated, the city government said.

Authorities said the oil had seeped into underground utility pipes, which could have been a factor in the blasts, but they did not elaborate.

The accident is likely to add to growing concerns among the Chinese public about safety and the environmental risks that come with oil pipeline projects. It is China's third deadliest industrial accident this year, following a chicken factory fire in June in Jilin that killed 121 and a mining accident in March, also in Jilin, that killed 36.

Evergreen hits out at rivals for laying on too much new tonnage           长荣创办人张荣发批评竞争船东订造太多和超大之货箱船

Wednesday, 27 November 2013 | 00:00

Veteran container player Dr Chang Yung-fa has come out and blasted his rivals for laying on too much extra new capacity during the ongoing fragile period for the sector. The founder and chairman of Evergreen has long warned on the perils of overordering super large tonnage ships, he held back from ordering from 2003 to 2010. In 2010, Evergreen embarked on a fleet renewal programme, ordering thirty 8,000 teu ships as well as chartering in five 8,800 teu vessels and ten 13,800 teu ones.

In total, 24 of the 45 new ships have been delivered during 2012 and 2013. The fleet will receive another 18 newbuildings in 2014 and the remaining three ships in 2015.

As this is a fleet renewal program, Evergreen is keen to stress, the delivery of the new vessels will be balanced by a gradual return of 54 chartered vessels to their owners as the term of the charters expire.

According to statistics compiled by industry analyst Alphaliner, the compound annual growth rate of the global containership fleet over the past five years is 7.07%. The ratio of Evergreen Line's capacity growth over the same period is 5.56%; lower than the market average.
Even when taking account of the ongoing delivery of newbuildings, it should be emphasized that Evergreen's fleet capacity at the end of 2013 will account for just 4.8% of the global total and 5% only at the end of 2015. Both levels are still below Evergreen's share of capacity in December 2008, when it stood at 5.2%.

“It is evident from these figures that Evergreen's fleet renewal program will have no significant negative impact on the global supply/demand balance,” Evergreen said in a release to the media.
