Southeast Asia Services promotion

Southeast Asia is a large region of Asia that stretches from east of India and south of China. This region includes continental countries as well as island nations within several different seas.

Since China is just near by Southeast Asia and with so many ports and factories in Southeast Asia, the connection between China and Southeast Asia continues to strengthen. Affected by the US-China trade war recently, more and more cargo from China is being trans-loaded in Southeast Asia. It has created more connections and businesses between China and Southeast Asia.

The Southeast Asia region is an area of great potential and it will always be a main area of business for GH Forwarding to focus on.

Typhoon appears, careful shipment

Every summer, there are typhoons that scare the shipping industry. The tempestuous typhoon brings great loss of life and property to the coastal areas. It also brings great troubles to cargo owners, shipping lines and freight forwarders.

What impact will the typhoon have on shipments? When the typhoon makes landfall, the relevant ports stop working and the voyage schedule will delay, cargo is likely to be directly immersed in the water, damp or damaged and so on. Here are photos and descriptions to show the typhoon's troubles for the shipping industry:

Due to the impact of Typhoon No. 7 "Weipa",Chiwan, Shekou and Yantian container terminals released yellow warning. All the container operations at the gate were stopped, and the Dachan Bay terminal also stopped the empty container service, and the Shenzhen port was closed for one day. These led to the centralized return containers to the port and extract containers from the port, which made a heavy traffic on each road into the port on 1st August when ports opened the gate. It's normal to be stuck for seven or eight hours on the road!

Typhoon "Weipa" caused blockage of Shenzhen's inbound road container fleet

Typhoon "Lekima", the No.9 typhoon, began to affect Shanghai and Zhejiang provinces, on Thursday evening, August 10, and continued through the weekend. Shanghai and Ningbo shipments were unexpectedly affected. The shipping lines issued a notice on the 7th August, stopped releasing S/O on the 8th, and did not accept all the container-type requirements for changing the pick-up point from the dock. At that time, the container could not be picked up or returned. In order to avoid the impact on the picking up of the containers. During the typhoon, the relevant staff were actively informed to pick up the containers at Yangshan wharf on 8th ASAP.

In order to minimize the damage caused by typhoons to the shipping industry, shipping lines, freight forwarders and cargo owners need to take certain defensive measures:

1. Before the typhoon strikes, the shipping lines will take effective measures to protect the port and navigation in advance, stop the dock operation,delay the shipping date appropriately, which will result in demurrage fee and container detention fee and so on, at the meantime will lead to the congestion of the port access road before and after the typhoon. The extra cost caused by the container cannot enter the dock or board the ship due to typhoon doesn't need to be borne by the customer.

Water operations and passing ships in the relevant waters shall return to the port to take shelter from the wind, reinforce port facilities, and prevent grounding and collision of ships by anchoring.

2. The freight forwarder will also timely send a notice to the consignor/consignee, so that they can cooperate with the relevant operations before the terminal stops working, to avoid the customer's concern about the transportation of the goods or the work schedule affecting the effective time. Reduce customer concerns about the goods and avoid work schedules that affect effective time.

3. As for the consignor and consignee, they should be as patient as possible, reasonably arrange shipment, purchase All Risk insurance for their cargo accordingly, pay close attention to their cargo dynamics, keep close contact with the freight forwarder, and try their best to cooperate with the instructions and arrangements of the freight forwarder and the shipping line.

This summer is coming to an end, I hope that this year's typhoon is also. No matter how choppy the typhoon is, G.H Forwarding has more than 27 years of freight forwarding experience, can keep calm in face of danger, do its best to handle shipments properly for customers, and provide customers with the confidence and trust. There is such a saying " Special reporter for Typhoon Day ", then " Special freight forwarder for Typhoon Day ", you can choose G.H Forwarding.
