SAA Cargo
glitches ‘under
control’
By Alan Peat
As the launch of a new
computer system by SAA
Cargo resulted in cargo
scheduling havoc around the
world, the airline reacted
swiftly to industry concerns.
A team of representatives
from the SA Association of
Freight Forwarders met the
airline’s senior executive
management of cargo
operations last week to
discuss the issue.
Gary Hoyle, SAA Cargo
chief financial officer and
information technology
specialist, told FTW that the
airline had implemented a
new generation, web-based
system called i-Cargo.
“This,” he added, “replaces
our legacy systems, Safron
and Zebra – and is designed
to improve operational
efficiencies and service to
our customers.”
However, Hoyle also
agreed that the changeover
had not been as smooth as
was hoped.
The system cut-over was
on the morning of Sunday,
October 3, he said, and SAA
Cargo went live on i-Cargo
following implementation
of Phase 2 – which impacts
on all areas of operation
worldwide. “But,” Hoyle added, “we
have experienced teething
problems as happens with
any system change.”
Communication has also
been on the SAA Cargo
agenda before and after this
system changeover, he told
FTW.
“We have been
communicating with our
customers, informing
them about the change
in the system prior to
implementation – and have
been regularly updating them
about the challenges that we

Ushering in a new era
More than any other media
source, executives rely on
business-to-business media –
like FTW and FTW Online –
for information to influence
or support purchase
decisions.
That was the finding
of a recent study by the
American Business Media
Association quoted by
freight divisional head
Anton Marsh at the official
launch of FTW Online in
Johannesburg last Friday.
“In-depth interviews with
505 key executives across
all major business segments
who are responsible for
making purchase decisions
underscored the importance
of advertising during times
of economic uncertainty,” he
told guests.
The new website, which
incorporates daily news, a
directory of services and
a Customs tariff section,
includes several new features
that facilitate interactive
community involvement.

DUTY CALLS
Supreme Court of
Appeal Rules in Sars’
Favour
On 01 October 2010
the Supreme Court of
Appeal of South Africa
(SCA) delivered its
judgement in the case of
the Commissioner for the
South African Revenue
Service (Sars) versus
Plasmaview Technologies
(Pty) Ltd.
This is the seventh
customs and excise-related
matter that has appeared
before the SCA this year.
The other court cases
in question are (i) Distell
Ltd (and Stellenbosch
Farmers Winery Limited);
(ii) Colgate-Palmolive
(Pty) Ltd; (iii) LG
Electronics SA (Pty) Ltd;
(iv) Fascination Wigs (Pty)
Ltd; (v) 3M South Africa
(Pty) Ltd; and (vi) AMI
Forwarding (Pty) Ltd.
The first four cases, as
well as the present one,
were all in respect of tariff
classifications, whilst the
last two dealt with different
customs and excise matters.
It is quite evident that tariff
classification is a major
point of contention.
In the latest case,
the SCA upheld the
Commissioner’s appeal
against a judgement of
the North Gauteng High
Court (Pretoria) (High
Court), which set aside
an amendment to the
motivation of a tariff
determination on review as
if it were a decision by the
Commissioner for Sars.
The Commissioner
for Sars had demanded
payment from Plasmaview
Technologies (Pty) Ltd of
underpaid duties and tax
calculated in two schedules
served on Plasmaview
Technologies (Pty) Ltd.
The High Court held that
the amounts claimed were
not owing and due.
The SCA set aside the
order of the High Court and
substituted it with an order
dismissing Plasmaview
Technologies’ (Pty) Ltd
application. The application
was accordingly dismissed
with costs, including the
costs of two counsel.
Duty Calls’ “To Do List”
A reminder of comments
that are due.
Comment in respect of
the proposed increase in
the rate of customs duty on
lattice masts for telegraph
lines of electric power lines
from free of customs duty
to 15% ad valorem is due
by 29 October 2010.
Comment in respect of
the proposed reduction in
the rate of customs duty
on glass Woven fabric,
tyre cord fabric, and

Walvis Bay switch swings major
contract for Lusaka shipper
By Joy Orlek
By switching from Durban
to Walvis Bay, a client in
Lusaka won a contract
with major retailer Shoprite
because he was able to offer
improved and predictable
transit times.
It’s one of several success
stories that Walvis Bay
Corridor Group CEO
Johny Smith outlined last
week when he updated
FTW on grand plans not
only to upgrade the port
but also the road and rail
infrastructure which are
crucial elements of the
supply chain mix.
“Ten years ago when we
started this initiative, Walvis
Bay had no direct callers –
Johny Smith … ‘Port to invest R2.7m.’
FTW1635SD
now we have connections to
all major trade lanes,” Smith
told FTW.
“Our objective is to
develop Walvis Bay as
an alternative trade route
serving Angola, Botswana,
Zambia, Zimbabwe, DRC,
Gauteng – and even as far
as Malawi and Tanzania
because of transit time you
can save along this route,”
said Smith.
Focusing on the Gauteng
market, he believes Walvis
Bay adds value for timecritical cargo.
“Ships from Europe and
the Americas have to pass
Walvis Bay – and from
Walvis Bay to Durban takes
5-7 days by sea. If you
offload in Walvis Bay, it
takes two days.
Since 1994, the port has
invested R800m and the
draught has been deepened
to 12.8m.
“Ten years ago we
handled 20 000 containers –
last year we handled
260 000.”
And according to Smith,
the port will invest R2.7-bn
in next 3-4 years, deepening
the draught to 16m and
doubling capacity to 500 000
TEUs per annum.
And the investment, says
Smith, is all about cutting
the cost of logistics for the
region, and this involves
the intermodal links as
well.
“There’s a missing link
in terms of railways along
the Trans Kalahari Corridor
– the railway stops 140km
before you reach Botswana
and then continues from
Lobatse. There is 700km
of railway missing but the
Namibia and Botswana
governments have put out an
expression of interest for the
railway between Botswana
and Namibia.
“There’s a lot of coal
in Botswana and they are
looking at an alternative
through Namibia or the
east – we are trying to run
faster than Mozambique to
ensure that Namibia gets the
business.”
Significant progress has
also been made with regard
to border hours.
“In 2007 the border
hours were extended. But a
recent agreement between
Botswana, Namibia and
South Africa will see the
introduction of a 24-hour
border.”
According to Smith, it’s
just a question of sorting
out human resources
requirements between the
various agencies involved.
“We believe we have
developed a very good
alternative trade route – and
that people should have
choices.
“Ultimately the benefit
for Southern Africa is
that we can reduce the
cost of logistics not only
by reducing transit time
but through the additional
benefits of competitive rates,
a congestion-free port and
zero pilferage.”
SA women
feature in
transport
industry
By Liesl Venter
Women’s voices in
transport, especially
in South Africa,
have become a
force to be reckoned
with, University
of Johannesburg
lecturer Rose Luke
told delegates at the
Transport Forum last
week.
“At a recent
conference in San
Diego, America, it
was astonishing to see
only 20% of delegates
were women. Looking
at the women in the
South African transport
industry it is clear
that we don’t have the
same low uptake as in
the States and that is
very positive. I believe
we have made major
inroads and grown
the number of women
involved in transport.”
Luke said this was
further proven by the
increase in the number
of female students at
UJ’s Department of
Transport. “A few years
ago only about 10% of
the students in the Road
Transport Management
course were women,
while today at least 35%
of the graduates are
women. In the BTech
degree some 65% of the
students are women.

One year on and Ngqura is pumping
MOL and MSC volumes growing
By Ed Richardson
Early Ngqura port adopters
MOL and MSC are
experiencing such a growth
in volumes through the port
that Transnet Port Terminals
will have difficulty
accommodating additional
lines until the berths have
been extended, according
to acting Transnet Port
Terminals (TPT) CEO Karl
Socikwa.
Speaking at an event
at Ngqura hosted by TPT
to celebrate the first year
of operation of the port,
Socikwa said the port would
have moved 409 000 TEUs
in its second year, after
handling 288 000 in the
first full financial year of
operations.
This means Ngqura will
have reached half the
800 000 TEU capacity of the
first phase of the container
terminal in the first full
financial year of operation.
Capacity has been
increased by adding a sixth
“gang” to operate the six
gantries, ensuring that three
cranes will be able to work
on a vessel at a time round
the clock.
Productivity is also rising,
with the port averaging 25
moves an hour (target 28),
and 39 per ship working
hour (SWH), which is
expected to increase to 60
SWH with the additional
staff on board.
Dredging will start soon to
dig the first 100 metres of the
third and fourth berths down
to 15.5 metres in order to
accommodate two 305-metre
vessels. At present, the port
can only handle a 305 metre
and 275 metre vessel at the
same time.
Nosipho Damasane, TPT
chief operating officer, said
other shipping lines had
started showing interest now
that the port had proven
itself.
However, the existing
users have plans that will
absorb most of the additional
capacity when the extension
starts operating in the
middle of next year.
“MSC is talking about an
8 000 TEU vessel for the
first time in South Africa,”
said Damasane.
Arthur Waters, head of
MSC in the Eastern Cape,
confirmed that the line
was planning to increase
volumes through the port of
Ngqura.
MOL’s John Lawlor says
the company is planning to
bring in bigger vessels and
grow its volumes as well. At
present, MSC is responsible
for the bulk of the traffic,
having put 200 000
containers through the port
in the first year, according
to Waters.
“We will very quickly
be talking about a four
berth operation,” predicted
Socikwa.
The quay wall for the
additional two berths has
been completed, and a large
area paved.
The harbour next

to be dredged and top
structure added to make
the additional quays
operational.
The additional investment
will increase the port
capacity from 800 000
TEUs a year to two million
a year.
While not wanting to
be committed to dates for
the next phase, Damasane
said it was probable that
the whole berth would be
dredged at the same time as
the first 100 metres.
“We will look at the
numbers to see when
the berths should be
operational, and I think
it will be far earlier than
Nosipho Damasane … ‘Other
shipping lines have started
showing interest.’
Karl Socikwa … ‘We will very
quickly be talking about a four
berth operation.’
Pressure for rail upgrade to Ngqura
By Ed Richardson
There is growing pressure
on Transnet to increase
capacity on the rail links
serving the ports of
Ngqura and Port Elizabeth.
Ngqura is beating its
budget forecasts several
times over, according to
Siya Mhlaluka, terminal
executive manager of
Eastern Cape Terminals.
In the first few months
of operation, the port
handled 70 000 TEUs,
instead of the budgeted
50 000.
A target of 100 000
TEUs was set for the first
financial year, and the
port is “looking at” over
400 000 TEU.
Some 61% is transit
cargo.
Taking part in a media
briefing marking the first
year of Ngqura’s operation,
John Lawlor of MOL
Port Elizabeth said there
was concern about rail
capacity.
With Ngqura acting as
the hub port for the line’s
operations, it would be
necessary to move up to a
thousand containers at a
time from the reef.
Additional pressure will
be put on the rail line as
volumes of bulk exports
through the ports of Ngqura
and Port Elizabeth grow.
Port Elizabeth and
Ngqura port manager
Sanjay Govan confirmed
that the port authority
was in discussions with
Transnet Freight Rail,
and with exporters
and importers of bulk
commodities.
Negotiations are at a
“sensitive and delicate
stage,” and “we are
leveraging all our muscle
to attract new cargo,” he
said.
Acting Transnet Port
Terminals (TPT) CEO
Karl Socikwa welcomed
the “bullish” sentiment
of lines like MOL for
Ngqura, and said “Transnet
is aligned to that.”

Pirates increasingly gaining the upper hand
‘Incentives far outweight disincentives’
By Alan Peat
In the light of the latest
events, the incentives for
pirates currently far outweigh
the disincentives, according
to Andrew Pike, a founding
partner of the maritime law
firm, Van Velden Pike &
Partners.
“The recent capture
(October 11) of the NYK
bulker “Izumi” by
Somali pirates and the
announcement that Kenya
is no longer willing to
handle the arrest, trial and
imprisonment of captured
pirates, brings
back into sharp focus the
piracy issue with which the
region continues to be faced.”
With Seychelles now the
only country in the region
willing to hold piracy trials,
Pike expressed his opinion
that the incentives for
pirates far outweighed the
disincentives.
Also, there remain
some major concerns for
FTW2032SD
South African shipowners,
charterers and cargo owners
arising from pirate attacks.
Wearing his hat as senior
lawyer and risk manager,
Pike told a recent conference
on piracy that the issue
should be approached by
all stakeholders – including
those ship and cargo owners,
charterers and governments
– from a methodical risk
management perspective.
“All risks to crew, cargo,
reputations, ships, sales
contracts and the like need
to be properly assessed for
likelihood of occurrence and
overall impact on the various
stakeholders,” he added.
“The risks, once properly
assessed, then need to be
managed by applying
appropriate risk control
measures to them.”
And these controls come
in a number of forms – and
could include (as
appropriate to each risk)
anti-piracy measures; cargo
insurance to deal with
general average claims by
shipowners and the like.
However, Pike sounded the
warning that, in his view,
payment of a ransom to
pirates for the release of
ship, crew and cargo is a
contravention in SA of the
Prevention and Combating of
Corruption Act.
“Consequently,” he told
FTW, “if a shipowner,
for instance, were to pay
a ransom and then claim
a contribution in general
average from the cargo
interests, an SA insurer of
such cargo would probably be
within his rights
not to pay the general average
contribution under the policy
– because the
claim arose from an illegal
act.”
Interestingly, Pike added,
it is not illegal in countries
such as England to pay
ransoms.
This scenario then leaves
the cargo owner on the horns
of a dilemma.
‘The issue should be approached by all stakeholders from a methodical
risk management perspective.’
“Either he has to put his
hand in his own pocket in
order to recover his cargo,
and thereby become party
to the illegality,” he said,
“or he must make an ethical
decision and walk away
from his cargo. No prizes for
guessing which route most
cargo owners will take.”
Be that as it may, Pike
believed that all stakeholders
should be speaking to each
other.
He also suggested that a
lobby to the SA government
to decriminalise ransom
payments in certain
circumstances would also be
appropriate.

Although there are political

This especially with labour
movements, he noted, which
accuse Chinese competition

Fundira also pointed out
that trade between the two

But, despite these concerns
and given the current
forecasts of China’s future
economic size and political
weight, Fundira insisted
that “the logic of improving
relations seems irrefutable”.
It’s a two-way trade
between benefits and
disadvantages, he added –
but tends to come out on the
winning side.
Tralac’s recent publication
– ‘South Africa’s Way Ahead
– Looking East’ – noted that
expected losses (employment,
wages, and production) in
certain sectors would be
offset by the opportunities
created in other sectors with
a competitive potential.
“Thus, in the long run,”
said Fundira, “it will allow
SA to develop and expand
trade in its competitive
sectors. Affected sectors such
as clothing and textiles need
to be realigned and adopt
new technologies – while

opportunities exist in the
chemicals, plastics and nonferrous metals sectors.”
But Fundira does not
suggest that the inevitable
growth in China should be
seen as an attack on SA – and
it shouldn’t encourage this
country to adopt a purely
defensive posture.
“While SA dines in the
dragon’s lair, there should
be a common understanding
amongst SA stakeholders
of China role’s in the global
economy,” he said. “The SA
government needs to inform
its stakeholders that China’s
rise is inevitable and we
should not avoid engaging
China effectively on the
trade front.
“Concentrating only on
defensive positions, on how
to limit China’s impact, is
counter-productive, and will
ensure that the Sino-SA
relationship remains skewed
in ways that suit the Chinese
economy far more than that
of SA.”

Maersk adds fuel to emission
reduction programme
Reducing carbon emissions
is high on the agenda for all
shipping lines – but another
issue gaining attention is the
emission of sulphur oxides
(SOx) and fine particles into
the air. “While shipping is
energy-efficient, more can be
done on SOx emissions,” says
a Maersk Line spokesman.
“In line with our
strategy for sustainability
and reducing the impact
of shipping on both the
environment and in the
communities we operate,
Maersk Line has become
the first to commit to
the voluntary fuel switch
programme in Hong Kong,”
he explained.
“In support of the ‘Fair
Winds Charter’ signed on
September 7, all Maersk
Line vessels will be using
low-sulphur fuel in their
engines while at berth in
Hong Kong,” the spokesman
said. This scheme is the first
of its kind in Asia.
With 850 port calls in Hong
Kong every year, this switch
will reduce Maersk Line’s
Sox emissions and particulate
matter while berthed at this
port by at least 80%.
“It’s all part of the line’s
commitment to a greener
planet.”
The Elly Maersk’s hull is further
streamlined below the waterline
with a newly developed paint,
saving an estimated 1 200 tonnes
of bunker fuel per year.
Inflation within
target range
Inflation is expected to
remain within its target
range for the next two
years, according to the
South African Reserve
Bank (SARB).
In its October
Monetary Policy
Review released last
week, the SARB said
the central projection
of the baseline forecast
shows that inflation is
expected to reach a low
point of 3.7% in the
third quarter of 2010.
The target range is
between 3 and 6%.
Inflation is expected
to remain within the
target range until the
end of the forecast
period, averaging 4.8%
in 2011 and measuring
5.1% in the final quarter
of 2012, according to
BuaNews.

They also see the Chinese
involvement as a two-way benefit.
For China, investing in African
infrastructure unlocks natural
resources and provides a pressurevalve for excess Chinese capacity.
Throughout Africa, Chinese
companies are capitalising on a
proven ability to provide costeffective infrastructure solutions.
“Meanwhile,” the Freemantle/
Stevens report said, “national,
largely private sector, champions
from India and Brazil are gaining
elevated traction, bolstered by wider
diplomatic African engagement
strategies and inspired by deepening
commercial linkages.”
There is no disputing the need for
upgrading Africa’s infrastructure
stock. It’s important to analyse
how integrated the Brics are in
supporting this crucial process and
to offer insights into which Bric
institutions are currently leading
(and likely to lead) the charge, they
added.

The Bric trade bloc (Brazil, Russia,
India, China) is leading the charge
in offering pragmatic solutions
to Africa’s abiding infrastructure
challenges.
That’s the view of Stanbic and
Standard Bank economics duo,
Simon Freemantle and Jeremy
Stevens.
“Africa will never genuinely
connect to the world without
meaningful upgrades in its
infrastructure stock,” the pair said in
their latest update.
“The deficit is enormous (even
relative to low-income countries),
and growth-penalising.”
And, given the depth and
importance of this pursuit, the
two stressed that fresh avenues of
finance, expertise and cooperation
were critical.
“Increasingly,” they added, “the
Bric economies, particularly China,
are offering vital impetus to the
negotiation of Africa’s infrastructure
dilemma.”

Bilateral trade with China will exceed $10.8bn this year
‘Africa’s growth is tracking that of China’
By Liesl Venter
In almost every corner of
Africa there is something
that interests China, writes
BBC journalist Adam
Blenford. “There is copper
to mine in Zambia, iron ore
to extract in Gabon and oil
to refine in Angola.
In other countries less
blessed by natural resources,
Chinese companies have
spied trading and investment
opportunities.”
Trade between China
and African countries is
expected to exceed $100
billion in 2010 with bilateral
trade in some instances
having risen by up to 65%.
According to the Chinese
Trade Ministry, more than
1600 Chinese companies
are currently investing in
Africa in the mining, trade,
agriculture, construction and
industrial sectors.
While China has a long
involvement with Africa
going back to the early days
of independence movements
in the 1960s and before, the
role of the East in Africa is
on the rise.
“With China growing
at 12% per annum the
rise of the East has been
phenomenal,” says Nicky
Weimair, senior Nedbank
economist. “Africa’s growth
is definitely tracking what
is happening in the East,
and therefore exports and
production on the continent
is increasing due to the
investment and development
that is happening.”
In South Africa, seen
by the East as the gateway
into Africa, bilateral trade
with China will exceed
$10.8bn this year, officially
becoming the country’s
largest trading partner.
Africa’s need
for infrastructure,
communications and power
is well met by China, whose
interest in the continent’s
mineral resources cannot be
under-estimated.
Increasingly, the strategic
interests of China and Africa
are inextricably linked, says
the World Economic Forum.
Africa must, however, prove
it is a reliable, predictable
trade partner and attractive
destination for investment,
while China must listen to
what Africa wants.
“The challenge is to
define clearly with China
China wants raw materials ... but for Africa beneficiation is crucial.
what we want and the
direction of investment.
Africa now needs to set
the agenda much more
energetically,” said Rob
Davies, Minister of Trade
and Industry of South Africa
earlier this year. “China
wants raw materials, but for
Africa to benefit we must
grow beyond suppliers of
dirt out of the ground that
goes somewhere else to be
processed.”
Research shows that
Africa’s growth is tracking
that of China. Chinese
demand – either real or
perceived – and relatively
buoyant commodity prices
are underpinning growth in
sub-Saharan Africa, says the
World Economic Forum.
Part of China’s
growth will depend on
Africa’s ability to supply
commodities. As a result,
China and Africa’s
relationship is changing
from one where contracts
were drafted and signed by
African leaders to a true
partnership, reflecting a
strategic relationship in
which Africa is increasingly
engaged.
“We have to understand
China’s priorities and use
them to our advantage.
Structuring mutually
beneficial economic
relations is what it is about.
It is in the interests of both
parties to move forward,”
says Davies.
‘A market not to be ignored’

India-Far East service adds
benefits for SA shippers
Safmarine’s new Chennai
Express service – which
links India and the Far East
– will not only boost trade
between these two regions,
but will also open up
opportunities for increased
trade between southern
Africa and South India,
says South Africa trade
director, Alex de Bruyn.
“The service was
introduced in September
this year, calling Shanghai,
YanTian, Tanjung
Pelepas, Port Klang,
Chennai (Madras) and
Visakhapatnam before
returning to Tanjung Pelepas
and Shanghai.
“Because both this new
service and the existing
Safari 1 and 3 services
(between Southern Africa
and the Far East) call at
Tanjung Pelepas, Southern
African exporters and
importers are able to
combine the Safari and
Chennai Express services
to gain faster and quicker
access to and from the
South Indian market,” he
said.
The Tanjung Pelepas call
is also expected to open up
opportunities and improved
access for Indian and
Southern African cargo into
the Horn of Africa.
The Horn of Africa
service, introduced in July
this year, currently calls
Tanjung Pelepas, Jebel Ali,
Dijoubouti, Jeddah and Port
Sudan.
“This service can be
used to connect cargo from
either India (on the Chennai
Express service) or South
Africa (on Safari) to Tanjung
Pelepas and then into the
ports in the Middle East and
the Horn of Africa.”
The Middle East - South
Africa trade is currently
served by the weekly
MESA service which calls
Salalah, Jebel Ali, Bandar
Abbas and JNPT (India).

Rate volatility keeps shippers on their toes
The Far East route has been
a rollercoaster ride of highs
and lows – but for Cargo
Care Freight International
it’s become the company’s
biggest market, says CEO
Roland Raath.
And the stronger
rand has made it even
more attractive to South
Roland Raath … ‘Importers have struggled to get to grips with landing
costs.’
African importers.
“This market climbed
to dizzy heights in 2005
to 2007 before flattening
at the end of 2008 and
tumbling down in 2009
with a mild recovery into
early 2010,” says Raath.
“Market volatility as
well as rate volatility means
staying in touch with trends
on a monthly rather than
quarterly basis.”
Over the past ten years
fuel and bunker charges
have added almost 40% to
ocean and air rates while
airfreight security costs
further complicate the
issue, says Raath. Which
is why importers have
struggled to get to grips
with landing costs.
“The traditional ocean
freight peak season
surcharge complicates the
market as importers face
a seasonal surcharge of as
much as 20% of the freight
rate. This spikes costs
upwards towards August of
each year and plays havoc
with landing costs.”
A regular and consistent
importer should benefit
from a consistent and set
rate for the full year, says
Raath. “But loyalty seems
to carry no weight in the
market – in particular
around peak period.”
While the downturn
in volumes over the past
24 months recovered
marginally in early 2010,
this was short-lived, says
Raath.
“It’s evident that
company fortunes lost
over the past few years
will take longer to recover
– but thanks to intense
sales initiatives the past 18
months have been record
months for us.” The ocean
freight market has slowed
down, rates have softened
and space is available
while a fairly steady rate
pattern has been evident
for airfreight, although
capacity is under pressure.
The golden rule is never
to take your eyes off the
rates because they’re
constantly on the move.

Direct LCL services offer comprehensive coverage
‘Exceptional volumes out of the Far East’
By Joy Orlek
Whether it’s the strong
rand, the World Cup, the
end of the recession or
simply aggressive sales and
service, for independent
groupage operator CFR
Freight, volumes out of
the Far East have been
exceptional – and the
outlook is equally positive,
says managing director
Martin Keck.
“Imports from the Far
East have gone through
the roof over the past few
months,” says Keck.
“The fact that shipping
lines were unable to
implement a peak season
surcharge tells you that
overall volumes are not
there. Perhaps we are in a
fortunate niche where FCL
turns into LCL business.”
Strong volumes from
China may also be related
to the upcoming festive
season, with people
stocking up early because of
the strong rand, says Keck.
Whatever the reason,
the volumes are good
– and CFR’s direct
services cover the region
comprehensively, serving
Hong Kong, Shenzhen,
Xiamen, Shanghai, Ningbo,
Qingdao, Tianjin and
Guangzhou from China as
well as other direct services
from Korea, Japan, Taiwan,
Singapore and Thailand.
Director Peter SchmidtLöffler believes an
aggressive sales drive has
been a large contributor
to the company’s success
in retaining and securing
business. “We’ve been
pushing on sales and
focusing strongly on
customer service.”
Rate and service stability
are crucial, says Keck.
“While shipping lines may
be dropping rates because
of capacity issues, our focus
is on providing a stable
service and offering clients
added value features like
speedy documentation and
data flow through EDI.”
The last three months of
the year are traditionally
very strong months, says
Schmidt-Löffler, and this
year is expected to be no
different.
“On the export side
it’s less to do with the
Christmas rush but rather
related to the builders’
holidays affecting the
manufacturing industry as
well,” says Keck.
“People are emptying
their warehouses before
December 15.”
Looking back on the

year as a whole, business
has been better than
expected – and both Keck
and Schmidt-Löffler are
confident of more of the
same for 2011.

Extreme fluctuation in
general cargo rates
‘Resilient’ East
expects 6% growth
By Liesl Venter
Keeping on top of customs changes is crucial
By Liesl Venter
A growing trend towards
smaller rural areas in the East
being used to manufacture
and produce items for export
has seen ports continuously
opening up and growing the
import/export channel.
“For companies like ours,
which are Far East based
and owned and focused on
this market, the growth is
important,” says Martine
Forbes, director of Linex Air
Services. “We will use our
expertise and skills to grow
the business in and out of this
region.”
Part of the Lenton Group,
Linex has its head office in
Hong Kong and offers an
extensive Far East footprint.
As The GSA for Cathay
Pacific Cargo/Courier the
company understands the
challenges and complexities
of doing business in the
region, says Forbes.
“The main challenges are
protocol and bureaucracy.
What is important is to
always make sure that you are
on top of the many changes
that happen in a very short
time frame in many ports in
the Far East. These changes
are driven by local customs
authorities and can seriously
hamper the transit times and
the handling of shipments.
Having local people who
speak the language and
specialists who are experts on
customs rulings is critical to
managing these challenges.”
Forbes believes that the Far
East will continue to show
positive growth in the year
to come. “We have already

opened new offices in the
region this year to keep up
with the growth and market
diversification. The opening
up of new ports in Hangzhou,
Xiamen and several offices in
Asia and Vietnam is paying
off with volumes on these new
routes both in and out of the
Far East already picking up.”
Emerging markets,
especially in the East, are
showing huge resilience
following the massive
global economic downturn
of 2009 and are expected
to see growth in the region
of 6% and more in the next
few years.
According to Yves
Zlotowski, chief economist
for the Coface Group,
this is phenomenally
high compared to world
economic growth, which
is expected to be in the
region of 3.5%.
“Emerging Asia has
had a very low level of
debt and therefore has no
leverage problems and is
showing major growth.
One must not forget that
while they were not as
badly affected by the
2009 recession as the US
or UK for example, they
have had their own share
of problems. They have
been in recession before.
Their ability for resistance
is very good and positive,”
says Zlotowski.
He said Asia for the
most part had been given
very positive ratings by
Coface, as the countries
are extremely stable.
Zlotowski believes
that the 2009 financial
crisis brought some major
changes to the world with
China and India playing a
much more important role
than ever before. “We will
also see the US economy
return to growth, but at
a different rate. People
will be saving more and
spending less and that
will impact on the role the
emerging markets play.”

IT plays key role as SA gains
traction as an assembly port
By Alan Peat
With the markets in the
developed countries still
under post-crisis pressure,
Africa’s emerging markets
are starting to draw the
world’s eyes, according to
Nachi Mendelow, sales and
marketing manager with
systems specialists CompuClearing.
“This is true with all
established markets,” he
told FTW, “and is especially
pronounced in terms of
trade with the Far East. As
cargo into Africa increases,
so too does South Africa’s
desirability as a cross-trade
and assembly port.”
Another factor which is
increasing this attraction
is that SA’s ports and
infrastructure compare
favourably with other African
countries. So goods are often
“These,” said Mendelow,
“include rebates on duties as
well as on local parts used in
the assembly.”
A point that must be
remembered is that goods
may not remain in-bond for
longer than two years without
being cleared – unless special
permission has been received.
“It is therefore vital
that goods in the bonded
warehouse are carefully
monitored to ensure that all
goods are cleared as needed,”
Mendelow said, “and that
they don’t overstay their
allowed duration.”
Compu-Clearing offers
systems to facilitate all
these activities. All required
documents can also be
produced – along with any
items imported as bonded

and then transported onwards

These goods normally
remain in bond, without
duties being paid on them,
and are at a later stage
transported out of SA.
“Special customs
documents need to be
produced to notify SA
Revenue Services (Sars)
about these entries,” said
Mendelow.
“Another scenario that can
occur is that duties are paid
on the goods as they arrive
in SA. When these goods are
then exported, a refund claim
procedure is done, in order to
recover the paid duties.”
Certain strategic initiatives
have also been undertaken
to make this country an

“This means that goods

China airfreight rates fluctuate dramatically
Advice for
food importers
from China
CFR identifies route for massive growth
By Joy Orlek
Recognising the massive
growth potential on the
China-South Africa route,
the airfreight division of
independent consolidator
CFR Freight has launched an
aggressive drive to expand
its share of the market.
Evidence of this was
the arrival in South
Africa earlier this month
of managing director of
Far East agent NAC Asia,
Christos Spyrou, who is also
chairman of the company’s
international agency
network, the Air Cargo
Group, of which CFR is a
board member.
Spyrou was in South
Africa for a week-long sales
visit to Johannesburg, Cape
Town and Durban.
CFR currently offers
airfreight services out of
12 Chinese origins – and
NAC has offices in all of
those origin cities, general
manager – airfreight, Dave
Graham, told FTW.
It’s a true supply and
demand market, says
Graham, with capacity
tending to be almost a
commodity and rates
fluctuating dramatically. SA
importers don’t understand
the concept of rates
fluctuating on a daily or
weekly basis but that’s what
we deal with. The Chinese
tend to be very focused on
their big export markets –
being Europe and the US –
and don’t understand the SA
market need for rate stability.
“For us we’re in the
fortunate position of having
a very good agent with a
good line of communication.
We try to tackle new
business in a two-pronged
manner. We target the
importer on this side and
will put NAC in contact with
the exporting forwarder on
the other side, a system that
tends to work very well.
“We believe it’s vital that
both sides are talking to
each other and talking the
same language.”
An additional advantage is
NAC’s capacity agreements
with preferred carriers in
Asia, says Graham.
“Although the lane is
extremely prone to capacity
shortages we hold our own

agreements that are able to
see us through peak demand
like the World Cup.”
According to Graham the
Chinese route has shown
better signs of stabilising in
the past few months than the
likes of Europe and the US.
“China was very heavily
hit by the volcano because
a lot of cargo is transhipped
in Europe. It was also
massively impacted by

coming out of China. But
China was also the origin
that seemed to recover first
– just in time for the start of
the traditional year-end peak
season.
“In a nutshell, it’s a lane
in which we are investing,
in which NAC is investing
and where we expect to see
significant growth in the
year ahead.”
Domestic contamination
scandals in China over
recent years, have placed
renewed government
focus on improving food
safety standards.
But while China has
recently introduced a food
safety act, traditionally
quality management
systems, food standards
and hygiene levels have
often fallen short of
required standards.
According to risk
manager and insurance
broker Aon, for companies
doing business with
Chinese food suppliers,
whether they are foreign
or Chinese themselves,
it is vital that supplied
produce undergoes a
strict quality management
process and that firms not
only agree to food safety
standards but monitor
their implementation.
It’s also vital to establish a
recall plan in case a recall
does have to be instituted
and consider taking out
an insurance programme
for the risk of product
contamination.

Rail holds key to manganese
export potential
By Alan Peat
SA manganese ore exports
haven’t taken the hard hit
that other export sectors
have during the global crisis,
according to Iain McIntosh,
trade and marketing director
of Mitsui OSK Line (MOL).
This has been supported
mainly by China’s continued
appetite for steel production
even during the tough times
of the past couple of years.
“Steel production
recovered globally from
late 2009 – and more so in
2010,” said his manganese
exports’ case study
commissioned by Dry
Cargo International. “China
still produced significant
increases even in 2009, so
SA exports of manganese
ore weathered the global
crisis quite well.
“It also looks set to
increase volumes further in
2010 and into the future.”
SA clearly has a big
advantage in the supply of
this mineral.
It is one of only a few
suppliers of this valuable ore
– and boasts some 80% of
global reserves.
“Demand over the period
2010-2015 looks likely to
provide significant volume
growth,” said McIntosh.
But there are challenges,
he added.
Like most bulk resource
in this country, its mining
sources are a considerable
distance from the
ports – with all the cost
disadvantages of long-haul
landside transport.
“It requires a good supply
chain to port to keep down
the free-on-board (FOB)
costs,” said McIntosh.
There are three main
producers – Samancor
(BHP), Assmang and United
Manganese of Kalahari.
The ore is mined in the
north-west of the country
in what has been named the
Kalahari Manganese Field
(KMF) – and despatched by
train from Hotazel through
either Port Elizabeth or
Durban as the shipment
points.
For local steel production
needs, some of the ore
is also moved by road to
Johannesburg.
Volumes are set to reach
over five-million tonnes this
year.
Whilst Durban moves
around one-million tonnes
(mt), with about 15%
containerised, the main
gateway for bulk exports
remains through the Port
Elizabeth manganese bulk
terminal – which, at about
1 100-kilometres, is closer to
the mining area.
“The efficiency of this
specific supply chain is
critical in terms of the
volume growth of this
product from SA,” McIntosh
said. “And the essential
driver for available tonnage
of exports is a good rail
system.”
The Transnet Freight Rail
(TFR) network supplies
capacity for 4.6-mt per
annum. The port of PE
handled 3.2-mt of bulk ore
during 2009 and is expected
to exceed 3.5-mt this year.
“So,” said McIntosh,
“there is room for further
growth in port volume given
the rail capacity available.
“However, that available
rail capacity begins to look
tight if you look at the
short-term demands for ore
exports.
Volumes
are set to
reach over
five-million
tonnes this year.

“Mine capacity is
currently restricted to
around six to seven million
tonnes a year. But the
demand in the shorter term
is more in the region of
14-mt.”
A number of
developments are under
way to realise this potential,
McIntosh told FTW.
At the rail loading
end, a rapid load-out
station installed by
Bateman Engineered
Technologies (BET) is
just part of an overall plan
to improve efficiencies.
Aside from accurate load
distribution, the station has
a design capacity to load
2 000-tonnes per hour (t/h)
– and a 104-wagon train can
be turned in just over three
hours. But, said McIntosh,
in practice it has been found
that the station actually has
a capacity to load 7000-t/h.
Meantime, the PE
bulk terminal has had
an upgrade costing
the equivalent of over
R380.8-m in the last
18-months. It has a 251metre berth of 11.6-m
draught fed by two loaders
each with 400-600-t/h
capacity. Therefore, with
its 460 000-t stockpile
capacity, the terminal
can work Handy-sized
vessels of 35 00045 000-deadweight (DWT)
capacity – with an average
port stay of one and a half
to two days.
‘Mining sources
are a considerable
distance from the
ports – with all the
cost disadvantages
of long-haul landside
transport.’
But, with its 14-metre
draught, the newly opened
port of Ngqura in the
Eastern Cape (27-kms
from PE) is also now being
favoured by Transnet as an
alternative.
The deeper draught would
allow larger vessels to be
handled, and there is also
berth capacity to handle
more than one vessel.
Ngqura should be ready
to take on bulk loading of
manganese ore by 2015.
“At the same time,” said
McIntosh, “a feasibility
study is under way on using
the Sishen-Saldanha iron ore
line (824-kms) and the west
coast bulk iron ore terminal
as an alternative.
“This route has the benefit
of much larger capacity
trains. But, given the huge
demands to increase iron
ore exports through this
gateway, the study may
find this option is not
straightforward.”
He also indicated that the
capital expenditure (Capex)
involved to develop all these
options was significant.
“It may have to involve a
private sector partnership –
which Transnet seems keen
to develop.”
With considerable growth
likely over the next few
years, the key to success
will ultimately be rail
network development to
feed an already solid port
gateway infrastructure.
“Upward potential for
export demand could reach
over 14-mt per annum by
2015,” said McIntosh, “given
the increased demand for
steel production in China,
Japan, Korea, and a recovery
in demand in Europe.”

Maputo plays key role
for Far East shippers
Direct callers make the difference
By Liesl Venter
The Port of Maputo
in Mozambique is as
important in the southern
African context as the Port
of Durban itself.
Following major
developments in recent
years, the port is widely
regarded as the fifth South
African corridor.
According to Brenda
Horne, CEO of the
Maputo Corridor Logistics
Imitative, it is the ideal
gateway to the Far East
and with the growth being
experienced it is finally
coming into its own.
Transnet Freight Rail
acting CEO Tau Morwe
agrees. He says that while
Transnet is not investing
much of its five-year capital
expenditure budget on the
Maputo Corridor, it remains
an important part of the
South African mix.
He says TFR is
continuously looking at
which commodities and
products can be moved
through the Maputo port as
rail operators have much
value to add in developing
the corridor by increasing
the number of trains.
Rail operators from
Swaziland and South
Africa have continuously
reiterated their commitment
to the Maputo corridor as
it is seen as an answer to
bringing down the cost of
transporting goods in the
Southern African region,
while boosting regional
economic growth says
Horne.
“We have seen
substantial growth in
containers at the Maputo
Port which is seeing ships
calling directly from the
Far East.”
Experts believe the Maputo port will come into its own some three years down the line.
With an estimated
investment of around
$800-million dollars over
the next five years, more is
expected in years to come.
“The dredger also arrived
two weeks ago,” says
Horne, “and it is currently
in action in the port.”
The dredging operation
will deepen the port to allow
fully laden Panamax vessels
to be handled regardless
of tidal conditions – a
move that will see its
competitiveness in terms of
bulk and container traffic
increase dramatically.
With ports and terminals
being very strategic assets,
investment pay-off is
more often than not seen
immediately. In the case
of Maputo, experts believe
the port will come into its
own some three years down
the line, offering services
especially to the Far East,
that most will not be able to
ignore.

Product safety moves up the priority agenda in China
‘New US legislation a good yardstick’
By Liesl Venter
In 2007 toymaker Mattel
recalled nearly a million
Chinese-made toys
allegedly coated with toxic
lead paint. Consumer
product safety can never be
under-estimated as it has far
reaching effects.
Defective imports from
the East are not necessarily
‘All children’s products
must be tested and
certified.’
FTW2051SD
a new phenomenon, but it
has increasingly become
important for importers to
ensure there are measures
in place to safeguard the
millions of consumers
across the globe who are
increasingly dependent on
manufactured goods from
the East.
According to Edie
Tolkin, an American-based
consumer product safety
expert, the US recently
upgraded legislation for all
imports from China.
“The new Consumer
Product Safety
Improvement Act is a
very good basis and
measurement for countries
to use when looking at their
own legislation. Product
safety is a critical issue, and
has stemmed from product
recalls over the past several
years for products from
China. These include toxic
plastics and other chemicals
in baby bottles, baby
formula, cribs, playpens and
other baby carrier issues.
Lead levels in children’s
toys and flammability
problems in garments
have all been
noted,” says Tolkin.
“Sooner or later
I can see this
becoming a very
important issue
for manufacturing
worldwide.”
She says it is important
that importers ensure all
products brought into a
country, especially from
China, are safe. “All
products should be tested
and must adhere to very
specific regulations.”
She advises companies
to employ a Chinese
translator. “That way you
can be sure the factory
understands exactly what
the needs and requirements
are before manufacturing
begins.”
There is no doubt that the
stakes are extremely high
when looking at Chinese
manufacturing. With
billions of dollars invested
in China, contractors
producing goods for export
are under tremendous
pressure to produce vast
amounts of product quickly.
“Safety must, however,
never be compromised,”
says Tolkin. “All children’s
products, for example, must
be tested and certified.
The health and safety of
millions of consumers
lies in the balance should
substandard products be
brought into a country.”
China, on the other hand,
having faced some serious
international scrutiny, has
in recent years implemented
measures to clean up the
manufacturing of exported
goods.
Tolkin says knowing the
rules and regulations of
the origin and destination
countries is critical.
“Learn about your
own country’s safety
regulations and import
policies, but also know
the rules and regulations
of the manufacturing
country from which you are
exporting. Every country
has different regulations.
It is important to build up
a trustworthy relationship
throughout the supply chain
that includes the freight
forwarder and the customs
broker.”

Learning more about Incoterms®2010
PART I – Introducing Incoterms®2010
EXW
FCA
CPT
CIP

DDP
FAS
FOB
CFR
CIF
Incoterms is the abbreviation
for International
Commercial Terms,
generally known or referred
to as trade terms, which are
used by contracting parties
in international contracts of
sale but not in contracts of
carriage.
Their application and use
in an international contract
of sale is to define:
•The roles of the
contracting parties in
respect of the carriage of
the goods;
•The responsibility for
the export and import
clearance; and
•The explanation of the
division of costs and risks
between the contracting
parties.
The International Chamber
of Commerce (ICC) first
created and coined the
word “Incoterms” in 1936,
although its development
started in 1919. “This
undisputed worldwide
contractual standard” has
been subject to regular
reviews and updates over
the years in order to take
account of developments in
international trade. The last
update was introduced on 01
January 2000, resulting in
the creation of what is known
as “Incoterms 2000”. (Please
consult the ICC publication.
Earlier versions of Incolearn
can also be requested in
hardcopy or accessed on
www.ftwonline.co.za.)
The lastest version of
Incoterms, which will be
known as “Incoterms®2010”
(it is now trademarked)
will enter into force on 01
January 2011.
The two obvious questions
are no doubt what the
changes are, and if these are
significant.
The answer to the first
question is evident in the
subtitle of Incoterms®2010
which reads “ICC Rules
for the use of Domestic and
International Trade Terms”.
Secondly, there are no
longer four categories or
groups i.e. E-terms, F-terms,
C-terms, and D-terms are
now replaced with two
distinct classes – “Rules
for any Mode or Modes of
Transport” and “Rules for
Sea and Inland Waterway
Transport”.
The Incoterms have
been reduced to 11 from
13, with four Incoterms
having been deleted and
two new Incoterms added.
The 3-letter Incoterms are
Ex Works (EXW), Free
Carrier (FCA), Carriage
Paid to (CPT), Carriage and
Insurance Paid to (CIP),
Delivered at Terminal (DAT),
Delivered at Place (DAP),
Delivered Duty Paid (DDP),
Free Alongside Ship (FAS),
Free on Board (FOB), Cost
and Freight (CFR), and Cost
Insurance and Freight (CIF).
The first seven Incoterms
are “Rules for any Mode or
Modes of Transport” while
the last four Incoterms are
“Rules for Sea and Inland
Waterway Transport”.
As to how to use the
Incoterms®2010 rules, the
ICC suggests that you:
• Incorporate the
Incoterms®2010 rules into
contracts of sale;
• Choose the appropriate
Incoterms®2010 rules;
• Specify the place or port as
precisely as possible; and
• Remember that
Incoterms®2010 do not
give a complete contract
of sale.

Eskom commits to rail migration strategy ‘Still
maritime
adviser’
Majority of coal will switch by 2018
By Liesl Venter
Eskom is committed to
reducing the movement of its
coal on South Africa’s roads
dramatically in the next five
years.
According to Suzanne
Daniels, the parastatal
currently moves about 33
million tons of coal per
annum by road to supply
some six power stations in
the country.
“We have committed to a
migration strategy that will
see less than six million tons
being moved by road by no
later than 2018.”
Speaking at the Transport
Forum in Johannesburg
last week, Daniels said it
was extremely important
for Eskom to move to a
rail programme. “Some
1100 trips are undertaken
every day by a fleet of 1086
trucks. We plan to reduce the
number of trucks to around
600 as the majority of coal
Suzanne Daniels ... ‘Cost of road too high to sustain.’
must be on rail by 2018.”
She said in October the
Camden power station in
Mpumalanga, which has
exclusively been receiving
coal by road, saw its first
train load arrive proving
that the strategy was not just
on track but that the power
utility had committed to the
project.
“We have involved
Transnet Freight Rail
extensively in this
programme. The Treasury
has committed money to the
migration programme on
condition that Eskom and
TFR sign a formal agreement
that will see the migration
strategy successfully
implemented.”
Daniels said the longterm strategy to address
the movement of coal to
power stations in the country
was first approved in 2008
when it was identified that
rail would be the solution.
Since then the Road to Rail
Migration Strategy has been
drawn up. This document
highlights exactly how
Eskom plans to reduce the
movement of 33 million tons
of coal to some 6 million per
year.
“We know that we have
some challenges to still
overcome and that it will take
time, but this is no longer a
choice. If we continue to use
road the cost will just be too
high to sustain.”
She said with poor road
infrastructure the coal
haulage network of some
1400km of road is in need
of upgrading. “Should a
damaged road be left for five
years or longer it costs some
18 times more to repair it.
The decision to use rail really
comes down to the fact that
it costs more to move by road
and therefore costs more to
produce power and therefore
the consumer pays more for
electricity.”
She said road transporters
were very much involved in
the programme along with
all the affected communities
in an effort to ensure that
people are ready for the move
when it comes and not caught
off guard and left without
employment or an income.
The modern day
frequency of job
changing tends to leave
a few communication
links missing.
One such

glitch was caused by

Norton, changing his
business abode from

Bousfield to Edward,

A question expressed
by some FTW readers
was: “What does this
mean about him being
legal adviser to the
SA shipping industry?
Is he still in that
position?”
FTW was
immediately in touch
with Norton, and his
reply was: “As far as
I know they haven’t
chucked me yet.”

But, some users
were adamant that no
communication had reached

was made that it was possible
that the cargo carrier had
been in touch with its major

hundreds of smaller airfreight

neglected.
Hoyle said that the
company understood the
frustration of customers as
a result of the delays. “And
we also apologise for the
inconvenience. We assure
you that all teething problems
will soon be a thing of the

The airline had also taken
note of complaints from
users about the length of time
taken for them to be attended
to at SAA Cargo offices.
“We have currently
made arrangements to set
up additional counters
to minimise the delays,”
said Hoyle. “We also have
a dedicated team that is
working around the clock to
ensure that our customers’
needs are addressed.”
Reports reached FTW from
frustrated shippers about
direct cargo consignments
taking mysteriously
roundabout routes and
cargoes getting bumped at
foreign airports as many as
three times on the trot.
Hopefully Hoyle is correct
and the system glitches have
now been ironed out.
and light repairs to
damaged containers,
monitoring of reefer
temperatures and pre-trip
inspection.
Through road and
rail collaboration, road
transporters can deliver
and collect containers
directly from Belcon.
“This allows for truckers
to increase the number of
loads per truck per day,
as they no longer have
to be delayed in traffic
congestion and stand in
long queues at the port and
other service points in the
logistics chain.
“Containers are shuttled
from Belcon to the port
(30km) at set times that
coincide with the port’s
off-peak hours. This allows
for trains to be offloaded
and reloaded during the
dead shift, spreading the
landside workload evenly
over a 24-hour period,”
Simelane said.

This week saw the launch by
Safcor Panalpina of a weekly
own-controlled airfreight
service from Luxembourg to
Johannesburg using a Boeing
747-400F aircraft with
105-ton capacity.
It follows the signing of
an ACMI multi-year lease
agreement (Aircraft, Crew,
Maintenance, Insurance)
between the logistics major’s
global partner Panalpina and
Atlas Air.
Working with Panalpina
World Transport, the weekly
inbound service will connect
from the USA and Far
East via Luxembourg and
Dubai respectively, Richard
Hartmann, product and
procurement air at Safcor
Panalpina told FTW.
“The modern aircraft is
designed for abnormal sized
loads and is fuel-efficient,
Transnet Freight Rail has
launched a new terminal in
the Western Cape – Belcon
Terminal – designed to act
as an inland nucleus hub,
serving as an extension of
the Port of Cape Town for
consolidation of containers
on rail.
“Belcon allows exporters
to have their containers
closer to the port of
loading ensuring that there
is minimal possibility of
short shipments. Imports
are simply an inverse
of this process as TFR
provides bi-directional
rail traffic flow of block
loads between the Port of
Cape Town and Belcon,”
TFR spokesman Sandile
Simelane told FTW.
The 70 000m 2
facility caters for the
predominantly agriculturebased Cape market,
offering port stack dates
