3 LATEST LOGISTICS AND FORWARDING NEWS FRANCE Code sharing agreement between Air France and Air Seychelles The code sharing enables the national carrier of Seychelles Island to enjoy access to 157 weekly domestic and regional flights, not only to Paris-Charles de Gaulle but also to Air France's European services between Paris and Athens, Berlin, Dublin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Geneva, Manchester, Munich and Zurich. Roy Kinnear, Chief Executive Officer of Air Seychelles said that two-way trade between Seychelles and France totalled US $ $229 million in 2014, and with 60 tonnes of weekly belly hold capacity on our Paris-Charles de Gaulle service, there are opportunities for growth. CMA CGM will introduce a Rate Restoration Program from Asia to North Europe The French shipping company CMA CGM will introduce as from the 20 th September 2015 (bill of lading date), a Rate Restoration Program from Asia to North Europe. An additional amount of US $ 500 per TEU will be applied on all cargo that CMA CGM vessels transport from all ports of Asia (including those of Japan and Bangladesh) to all Northern European ports, from Portugal to Russia and including the United Kingdom. Very good performance of CMA CGM during the second quarter of 2015 During the second quarter of 2015, shipping group CMA CGM transported 3.3 million TEU, a 6.2% year-on-year while global market volume grew around 1%.

4 INDIA The port of Hariza is becoming an alternative to Jawarharlall Nehru port Chronic congestion at Jawarharlall Nehru Port Trust container terminals, especially at the port of Nhava Sheva, has made several sea carriers to add direct calls to the port of Hariza in the province of Gujarat. After Maersk Line, CMA CGM and OOCL, Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) has launched a direct call to Adani Hazira container terminal which is operated by the private Adani group. That new route has improved MSC s direct connections between Europe, the Mediterranean and India. Towards an open sky policy? Hery Rajaonarimampianina, the President of Madagascar, has stressed the need for an open sky policy to contribute to the development of the tourism sector. "It is an opening that however will have to be in compliance with rules and standards" he said. The open sky policy will also have a positive impact on the tariffs of cargo transported in the hold of passenger planes from and to Madagascar. Aricent to invest US $ 500 million The American communications software firm Aricent plans to invest US $ 500 million in India over the next three years to enhance its capacity to develop new products. Aricent already operates offices in Gurgaon, Chennai, Hyderabad and Bengaluru

5 MADAGASCAR Reviving the mining sector The Government of Madagascar will issue in the near future mining permits and the parliament will pass a mining bill to attract foreign investment. Although the country s annual mine capacity turns around tonnes, the output this year is expected to be low, about tonnes and declining compared to year 2014 ( tonnes). The price of nickel on the world market is falling as well as that for ilmenite which is used as a pigment in paint, paper and plastic. Before the coup of year 2009, the mining industry of Madagascar was attracting 80% of the country's total foreign direct investment. Down town duty free shops will close down Due to cases of wrongdoings in the commercialisation of products in down town duty free shops, the Government of Madagascar will put a ban on such points of sale. The Director General of the Customs services of Madagascar, Mr Rabenja Eric Narivony told the press that the decision has been taken to improve state revenues and avoid unfair competition. The down town duty free shops have up to the end of this year to sell their products duty-free to valid travellers. Online services by Customs The Customs services of Madagascar have said that by the end of year 2016, all the customs documents will be available online for download and their submission will be done electronically.

6 MAURITIUS Mauritius will set up a Technology Park in Ghana An agreement has been signed between the Government of Mauritius and that of Ghana to set up a Technology and Business Park in Accra, Ghana. The first phase will cover an area of 6.1 hectares and US $ 260 million will be invested in the project. The second phase will be rolled out on 37 hectares of land. The Park will comprise a cyber tower, a three-star hotel, a polyvalent conference centre and a block of apartments. The Minister of Finance of Mauritius, Mr Vishnu Lutchmeenaraidoo will lead in November a delegation of 40 Government officials and businessmen of the private sector to Ghana to establish business contacts and launch the project of the Park. A joint entity involving Mauritius and Ghana, TEMA Technology Park Ltd will implement and manage the Technology Park of Ghana. Possibility of setting up a regional airline company The Prime Minister of Mauritius said that he will look into the possibility of setting up a regional airline company to connect the island to mainland Africa with the active participation of Air Mauritius. The improved air connectivity will not only drive more traffic to Mauritius but also contribute to develop the country as an aviation hub. Rs 1 billion to be invested in eight projects The government will invest Rs 1 billion in eight projects (the construction of a new access road to the airport, upgrading works along Cluny Road, the construction of a Multi-Purpose Hall, a Sports Complex, two colleges as well as stadium in the neighbouring island of Rodrigues).

7 MOZAMBIQUE CMA CGM applies a Rate Restoration Program on all cargo from Asia to Mozambique The French shipping line CMA CGM has introduced since the 15 th September, a Rate Restoration Program on all cargo its vessels transport from Asia to Mozambique (including Japan, Southeast Asia and Bangladesh) as well as to Madagascar. The tariff hike on its MOZEX service amounts to US $ 150 per 20 feet container. Truck companies are unhappy about a new Government decree A new decree will be enforced by the authorities in five months time, obliging truck drivers not to spend more than four hours uninterruptedly behind the wheel. Furthermore, they will also not be allowed to be on the road for more than 8 hours, with a break of at least 30 minutes after the first four hours. In addition, each truck will have to be fitted with a tachograph, an equipment which automatically records the speed, the distance covered and the time during which the vehicle remained stationary. The objective is to promote road safety. However, the Federation of Road Transport Operators of Mozambique is against the tachographs due to their costs of installation. 24 Special Economic Zones The government has identified 24 Special Economic Zones offering tax exemptions for agro-business. The objective is to increase Mozambique s agricultural production.

8 REUNION ISLAND Air freight traffic on the up on the export side According to the latest official statistics compiled by Roland Garros airport, during the first six months of 2015, air freight imports dropped by 3.9% compared to the same period last year. On the other hand, the volume of outbound air freight increased by 2.4% TEU handled at Port Reunion during the first semester of 2015 During the first six months of 2015, TEU have been handled at Port Reunion, a 7% increase compared to the corresponding period last year. Around TEU were transhipped, a 135% growth over one year following the decision of the French shipping group CMA CGM to use Port Reunion as its regional hub. Furthermore, container tonnage went up by 9% to reach 1,070,000 tonnes. Most sectors had been growing with the exception of the import of solid bulk which declined by 3%. For the development of the agricultural sector of Reunion Island million euros will be devoted by the European Union for the development of the agricultural sector of Reunion Island up to year 2020.

9 OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD The Government of China has strengthened its rules and regulations for hazardous cargo After the chemical explosions at the port of Tianjin last month, the British International Freight Association (BIFA) reports that the Government of China may have strengthened the rules and regulations governing hazardous cargo shipments. "We understand that Shanghai Customs requests that all import and export cargo must be labelled both in Chinese and English, otherwise, it will be in detained in Customs custody," said a spokesperson from BIFA. "The label must include commodity, UN number, composition, warning sign, emergency contact." New cargo flight between UAE and Iran Since the 1 st September, Emirates SkyCargo, the freight division of Emirates, has launched a new weekly service between the United Arab Emirates and Mashhad in Iran. Its freighter which has a capacity of 150 tons, offers to Iranian manufacturers access to the global network of Emirates through its hub of Dubai. Iran exports fruits, vegetables, carpets, saffron, nuts while it imports meat, pharmaceutical products, medical equipment, machinery and automobile parts. MOL will ask all its customers to provide the 6-digit HS Code As from the 12 th October, the shipping line MOL will ask all its customers to provide a 6-digit Harmonized System Commodity Code (HS Code) when submitting the Shipping Instruction (SI). Nevertheless, the shipment will still be processed if the code is not provided, except in cases where the customs request clarifications.
