TRANSPORT IS OUR BUSINESS

Private sector participation in ports not off the radar

Private sector participation

By Joy Orlek

Transnet Port Terminals has not ruled out the possibility of private sector participation in port terminals, but the timing is likely to be later rather than sooner.

That much was clear from comments made last week by acting CEO Karl Socikwa during a media briefing at the Port of Ngqura, six months since it handled its first vessel, the MSC Catania.

“Any partnership with

other players is an issue that will be addressed in the future,” he said.

“We need to get our house in order and ensure that the terminal is operating as it should be and providing the service levels the customer expects – and then we can talk.”

TPT chief operating officer Nosipho Damasane added similar sentiments.

“We will have a lot of discussion with private

Second port at Durban still possibleBy Alan Peat

A second port at Durban is still possible as part of Transnet’s plans to spend R6.5-billion adding capacity and upgrading infrastructure over the next five years.

In the past five years, R12-bn has been spent at the port.

Moira Moses, Transnet group CE for capital projects, said it intended to buy Salisbury Island – owned by the department of public

works, and currently used as a naval base - and convert it into another container terminal that will add 700 000-TEU capacity.

Other projects in Durban include extending and upgrading the berths at

Island View, to be completed next year; with berths at Maydon Wharf also to be upgraded, and construction expected to start this August.

Good news for the container road transport industry is that there are

plans for road construction projects to improve access via Bayhead – and the building of a link road to provide alternative access to the western side of the port.

Tariff Amendment – Agricultural ProductsOn 01 April 2010 there was an amendment to Note 3(a) of General Note IJ in Part 1 of Schedule No. 1, and Part 1 Schedule No. 10. The effect of this amendment is that the decision on the amendment of Annexures IV and VI of the Trade, Development and Cooperation Agreement (TDCA) between South Africa and the European Community (EC) regarding certain agricultural products, is implemented.

Tariff Amendment – Fuel Levy and RAFWith effect from 07 April 2010 the following tariff amendments will come into effect (i) Fuel levy on both petrol and diesel in Schedule No.1 Part 5A and 5B will be increased by 17.5c/li from 150c/li to 167.5c/li, and 135c/li to 152.5c/li

respectively; (ii) the Road Accident Fund (RAF) levy on both petrol and diesel by 8c/li from 64c/li to 72c/li; (iii) the fuel levy for farming, forestry or mining on land will be increased to 58c/li fuel levy plus 72c/li RAF levy on which a refund of 130c/li may be claimed; (iv) Fuel levy on offshore vessels will be increased to 145c/li plus 72c/li RAF levy which equals 217c/li; (v) RAF levy on harbour vessels and rail will be increased to 72c/li; and; (vii) on electricity generation plants to 145c/li fuel levy plus 72c/li RAF levy, which equals 217c/li.

Yet Another Trade Deficit According to the trade statistics for February 2010 which were released by the South African Revenue Service (Sars), South Africa recorded yet another trade

deficit. This resulted in a trade deficit of R9.079bn, with February 2010 accounting for R3.389bn. This figure is half of what it was for the same period last year when it was R18.526bn, and is attributable to a significant drop in South Africa’s imports. This could in part be explained by the major infrastructural projects during the time, which were delivered by means of imported inputs. Even though it is half of the figure that it was last year, the question still remains, who is ultimately paying for the trade deficit? In other words, how is the trade deficit being financed? Another worrying factor is that South Africa’s trade profile remains virtually unchanged.

SA and China in R2.3bn dealFurther cementing trade ties between South Africa and China, contracts for products such as wine, frozen fish abalone and chrome oil worth R2.3 billion were signed up last week.

Trade and Industry Minister Rob Davies commented at the official signing that the latest contracts had more than doubled since the last deals in 2007 when the total value amounted to R143 million.

South Africa exports minerals to China as well as wine while China exports mostly electronic products to South Africa.

NuClear promises slick and quick clearance processPaperless integration is the key

April 15 will see the official launch of Clearing Support Services’ NuClear programme.

“It’s the paperless integration with systems prior to, during and subsequent to the clearing process that is the key to a more efficient, slicker and quicker clearance process,” says Clearing Support Services’ managing director Roger Shaw.

And that’s the philosophy behind NuClear.

It’s the third version of a programme that was originally written in DOS, then upgraded to Windows, and now uses the latest in computer technology in a totally new, clean programme that goes way beyond a simple upgrade by using a completely new operating philosophy, says Shaw, whose freight computer bureau this year celebrates its 20th anniversary.

“NuClear is written in Java because it is platform independent and can therefore

run on any operating system, including the AS400,” says Shaw.

“Our preference is Linux, because it is totally reliable and requires no licence fees – a decided advantage in the present economic climate.

“A further consideration was the cost of printers and printer cartridges, so any type of printer can be used to produce documents, from the multi-function ‘coffee-makers’ to a simple inkjet printer.”

In terms of the actual programme, the key was to make it as flexible as possible, Shaw told FTW. “Not only to customise it in terms of imports, exports and cross-border, but even to adapt the methodology of the programme to the way the client works.”

And the document process does just that. “It enables you to choose which documents you require, and at which point you wish to start, and then automatically links all the data,” says director

and technical manager Priyen Vallabh.

“No longer will you be tied into a rigid set of screens that have no consideration for your business requirements or the sequence in which you receive information for processing.

“The document printing is also done at your discretion – individual documents within a bill of entry as required or all together at the end of the bill of entry capture process.”

According to Vallabh, a major supermarket chain which has bought the programme has reduced

document processing time from up to a full day to one hour.

In addition, rates of exchange and tariff amendments will be downloaded onto the system automatically while the tariff book, which will include a word search, alerts the user to any special permit requirements, displays the customs duty breakdown and has a quick duty calculator.

While the programme is being continually expanded and updated, the importers’ and exporters’ modules are

already available, says CSS’s Jeanette Primrose.

Ex bond, bond store control and invoicing are soon to be launched while an accounts and warehousing package is in the pipeline.

Based in Boksburg, CSS has offices in Cape Town, Windhoek and Durban. Shaw, a qualified engineer, has 20 years’ experience in the field while the rest of the 13-strong team have all been involved either in IT or the freight industry for several years.

The programme is available on full maintenance lease.

Long-term contracts the key to carrier profitabilityVolatility in the marketplace a problem for all

By Ray Smuts

While restful visions of full ships, no debt and robust bottom lines will elude ship operators for a while yet, AP Moller-Maersk, world’s largest container shipping group, realises full well a key component in the road back to profitability is forging long-term customer contracts.

None of this three-month, six-month stuff, but three of even more years, is the symbiotic thinking of Eivind Kolding and Tomas Dyrbye, CEOs of Maersk Line and Safmarine respectively.

Kolding, speaking at the JOC Transpacific Maritime Conference in the USA recently, said long-term contracts were a more constructive alternative to shippers hedging rate fluctuations through the new-fangled container derivatives, “a potential casino,” in his view.

He argues contracts (of the shorter kind) have tended not to be honoured historically and that longer-term contracts will enable the lines to improve reliability and reduce transaction costs for shippers.

Apprised of Kolding’s California comments, Dyrbye, thousands of kilometers away in Cape Town on his second official visit to South Africa since assuming office recently, agrees emphatically.

“Most of the customers I have spoken to at Safmarine also agree that volatility in the marketplace is a very big problem for all.

”In our industry, contracts don’t have that many legally binding commitments and what we are seeing in some instances is that when the market goes up customers stand firm on a rate but when it goes down, they suddenly don’t.

“Many contracts are for perhaps three months, not

even covering a full calendar year, and what we would like to see is contracts of one to three years, even longer.”

The AP Moller-Maersk Group lost US$1 billion overall last year. Freight rates for the Group’s container activities were 28% lower than in 2008, resulting in a negative segment result of US$ 2.1 billion for container activities. Dyrbye is not telling how much Safmarine

lost, though he concedes its losses were less than the considerably bigger Maersk Line.

Safmarine’s new East Africa Mashariki Express service launched on March 2 is a clear acknowledgement that the line needed to up its service offering in the region but that is where it stops, certainly for now.

“At this very moment, it’s about restoring profitability,

so we don’t have any plans for West or South Africa.

“We must be able to produce a profit this year and a decent profit next year.”

The AP Moller-Maersk connection has clearly benefited Safmarine, volume growth since the takeover in 1999 up from 180 000 to 800 000 FFEs, which has enabled the carrier and the group to further stamp their presence on Africa, a core business.

In the process, says Dyrbye, Safmarine has really become more of a global than a South African player. Indeed many decisions taken nowadays are of a global nature.

A source of pride is the remarkable growth of the Safmarine newbuild fleet programme, seven ships slated for delivery this year and next, to swell the fleet to 27 owned ships by 2015.

“A great achievement,” says Dyrbye.

Tomas Dyrbye ... ‘It’s about restoring profitability.’

Eivind Kolding ... ‘Shorter contracts tend not to be honoured.’

Industry awaits outcome of amendment to counterfeit goods rulingDelay in getting legislation changedBy Alan Peat

Members of the freight industry are still in a hot sweat about being unjustly included as liable parties in cases falling under the Counterfeit Goods Act (CGA).

A much-desired amendment to the act was assembled last year by the Maritime Law Association (MLA) – a motivation that clearly addressed the plight of the innocent carriers, ship’s agents and clearing and forwarding (c&f) agents.

This was included in a submission driven by the shipping industry in general, and is currently in the government pipeline awaiting discussion and ratification as an amendment to the CGA – which was last amended in 2001.

The problem for the industry, according to Andrew Robinson, director of lawyers Deneys Reitz and chairman of the MLA, is that the present definitions of importer and exporter in the act “are draconian in

their scope”. In relation to counterfeit goods,

those persons who ordinarily conduct business as a carrier, shipper, ship’s agent, shipping agent, clearing agent, forwarding agent or similar businesses, are all included under the importer and exporter headings.

“The definitions fix a vicarious liability upon persons who have no interest in the goods in question and who, in general terms, ordinarily have no way of knowing whether the goods in question imported into or exported from SA are counterfeit as defined in the act,” Robinson added.

The industry is in a sweat because there have already been a number of cases held in SA which included innocent carriers and C&F agents in the charges.

The amendment to the act seeks to exclude these parties, and the proposal has been submitted to the authorities, so that the appropriate legal change to the act can be made.

Car carriers hit Customs ‘pothole’Sars ruling creates major headache for overborder vehicle deliveries

By Alan Peat

A car carrier has got tangled up in an old piece of SA Revenue Service (Sars) legislation, and is struggling to escape its hold.

The Durban-based company, Motorlog, is essentially a car carrier delivering second-hand imported vehicles to neighbouring states – established when the law changed and no longer allowed these vehicles to be driven on SA roads on the way to their final destination country.

But a piece of the legislation surrounding this driven vehicle system still remains, and is now slapping legal brakes on companies using permissible car-carrying heavy vehicles.

“What we do is to collect vehicles from bond stores around the city, to finally deliver them to their

destination in neighbouring countries,” said Motorlog executive, Vernon Naidu.

But an interim stage in this process is landing the company in a Customs’ legislation car trap.

“Once we’ve collected all of our delivery vehicles,” Naidu told FTW, “we need to take them to a central point to consolidate our overborder loads – taking things like numbers, weight, size and destination into account.

“But Sars is enforcing a law that hasn’t allowed for the changed circumstances, and which states that, once uplifted from a bond store, the goods have to be delivered direct to their final destination.”

Motorlog has tried to put its case before Customs, and to find some way around the ruling – even to the extent of considering forking out for their consolidation centre to be

also declared as a bond store.

But, despite constant efforts, Naidu said that all they’d succeeded in doing was “building up reams of correspondence, and getting

passed from pillar to post around Sars both nationally and locally”.

The company has even quoted what it thinks is a court precedent supporting its case from the legislation surrounding the old drive-a-car system. This where a truck and trailer (being driven by an approved

driver) broke down and had to be taken to a garage for repairs. The truck and trailer had to be separated, as it was understood that the truck would not be in a position to pull the

load given the mechanical problem.

Sars insisted that this was akin to delivering to an interim point on the way to its final destination, and slapped a detention notice for the trailers on the offending delivery company.

When the issue was

finally taken to court, Sars lost, according to Naidu.

“Our consolidation yard is a similar situation,” he said, “and should be exempt from the ruling of direct delivery to the final destination.”

The issue that needs clarity from Sars is the use of the word “Diversion” in its ruling.

“What is it? asked Naidu. “Is it the entering of bonded cargo for home consumption – or a change of routing?

Also, he questioned why Sars was taking such a strong stance on procedure.

“When these vehicles were driven by the foreign buyers,” Naidu added, “they were allowed 21 days from the time the temporary road permit was issued to the crossing of the border – and they could have gone anywhere before actually leaving this country.”

The story still continues.

Jet Airways set to capitalise on SA-India trade growthBy Liesl Venter

South Africa’s ever-growing economic trade relations with India are set to be boosted even further with the decision by Mumbai-based airline, Jet Airways, to fly directly to Johannesburg daily.

According to Arindam Banerji, senior general manager: cargo for Jet Airways, the decision to expand to South Africa, while being part and parcel of the airline’s expansion plans, is also aimed at taking advantage of the growing trade relationship between the two countries.

“South Africa and India historically have a very long-standing relationship

and both governments are committed to increasing economic trade. There is much opportunity and potential for us as an airline to fly to Johannesburg and to benefit from the growing trade,” he said at the launch of the airline’s new service in Johannesburg last week. “We believe there is also opportunity to see more cargo moved between South Africa and India. This offers South Africa a direct market into India.”

It’s the first Indian carrier in decades to offer a direct service between Mumbai and Johannesburg, with the first flight scheduled for April 14. “We are primarily a passenger airline, but cargo is important to us. Our aim is

to see at least 20% of revenue being generated from cargo,” said Banerji. “At the moment we expect to see more cargo coming into Johannesburg from India, but we believe this is something that will change as more and more people realise the benefit of being able to fly cargo directly to India and as more trade deals are signed.”

Operating an Airbus 330 daily between Johannesburg and Mumbai, the airline has capacity for some 12 tons of cargo. “We are set up for any cargo from general to dangerous goods and can carry it literally to anywhere in India.”

Flying to 50 domestic Indian destinations and 23 international cities routes

include Toronto in Canada, New York in the US, Brussels and London.

According to Anne Sanders of GS Africa, which has been appointed as the sales agents for Jet Airways in South Africa, the entry of a new player is good for the market. “For us as a GSA it gives as another diverse market to sell in South Africa. We also intend feeding the Johannesburg flight to Mumbai from the neighbouring states.”

Rogers Aviation, which represents Jet Airways in South Africa, also welcomed the decision of the airline to expand to South Africa saying it certainly ensured more versatility in the market.

‘Work smarter and returns will grow’Transport guru provides simple guidelines to improve return on investment

By Liesl Venter

There is no doubt that improved logistics in the supply chain can increase return on investment, says Garth Bolton, joint CEO of Cargo Carriers.

Bolton told FTW that too often companies remained in a rut due to past practice methodology. “This is something many logistics companies fight on a daily basis especially when it comes to the manufacturing

industry. If we improve the logistics of the supply chain, then we will improve our return on investments, but to do that we must change the way we are doing business.”

Using the example of a shoe factory in Port Elizabeth, Bolton said it was found that by changing the way the company had been doing business, it became more viable and found itself increasing its return on investment substantially.

“To improve logistics

efficiency, it did however require changing the way they were thinking and how they were operating. The reality is that asking a company to do that does require a leap of faith.”

He said too often companies believed that to increase their return on investment meant squeezing the transport and warehousing sectors of the supply chain. “Most truckers are lucky if they get 10%. Many companies think if

they want to increase their profitability they should try to get their transportation costs as well as warehousing costs down. And realistically you are not going to make a substantial increase on your return on investment if you just do that.”

Bolton said by substantially changing the manufacturing aspect of the business as well as increasing sales a much larger increase on investment can be made.

Garth Bolton … ‘It really is about manufacturing more cleverly to increase your profit margins.’

Air cargo recovery will take up to three yearsBy Ed Richardson

Air cargo firms are cautious about projected improvements in 2010, but almost all only foresee a return to 2007 peak levels within one to three years, according to the 2010 Global Air Cargo CEO Survey by consulting firm Oliver Wyman.

"As the industry slowly emerges from the worst-ever demand crisis, key lessons learned are that faster response, added financial flexibility, more conservative capacity planning, and

diversification of risk across markets and products are key elements to successfully manage in a downturn," says Niko Herrmann, a partner at Oliver Wyman.

"Carriers in the future will require financial and network strength as well as enhanced organisational and management capabilities to get the best out of their cargo capacity."

This year's survey of more than 30 CEOs of top global air cargo players found that, while the global economy may be showing signs of stabilisation, the recovery in

the air cargo market is still fragile.

The majority of growth

is expected to come from China and North Asia, followed by the rest of

Asia-Pacific, and air cargo providers plan to focus on these regions.

European airfreight volumes disappointWhile both the cargo and passenger numbers are improving, the year has started with two disappointments, according to Giovanni Bisignani,

director-general and CEO of the International Air Transport Association (Iata).

The first is cargo and passenger demand

in Europe. “We anticipate Europe

to post the equivalent of R16.28-billion in losses this year – the highest among the regions,”

Bisignani said. “Weak European passenger and freight demand is in line with our forecast,” he said.

The second area of dissatisfaction is

the failure to address ownership issues in the second stage of talks on open skies between the European Union (EU) and the US.

Business inventory cycle drives global airfreight growthThe air cargo industry is regaining ground lost in the recent recession, with the International Air Transport Association (Iata) recording strong demand in February.

While the 26.5% growth in February is healthy, the direct year-on-year comparison gives off a bit of a false message. Iata pointed out that cargo hit bottom in December 2008, with little improvement realised by February 2009. The association reckons that cargo traffic has a further 3% to recover in order to return to pre-crisis levels.

“We are moving in the right direction,” said Giovanni Bisignani, Iata’s director-general and CEO. “In two to three months, the industry should be back to pre-recession traffic levels. This is still not a full recovery. The task ahead is to adjust to two years of

lost growth.” Looking at international

cargo demand, measured in freight tonne kilometres (FTK), Iata noted that the European airlines were benefiting least from the strong upturn in

airfreight volumes. The region showed year-on-year growth of just 7.2%, compared to the 26.5% average.

It was completely the other way round in North America. Iata said that, despite the sluggish US economy, North American airlines have seen a rebound of 34.1%.

That compared favourably

with the 34.5% growth experienced by Asia-Pacific, the Latin American airlines, which recorded growth of 41.9%, and 33.1% in the Middle East.

Africa, meantime, nearly stole the prize for star performer, with a thumping growth figure of 36.5% – a rate which was only beaten by the Latin American air cargo industry.

The bulk of the expansion, according to the association, was therefore attributed to businesses restocking inventories.

Indeed, it noted that the strong global airfreight upturn had been largely driven by the business inventory cycle.

“We can expect this part of the cycle to wear out in the second half of the year when inventories reach normal levels,” said Bisignani.

Tiaca offers shippers free membershipThe International Air Cargo Association (Tiaca) has extended its membership to all shippers, free of charge, according to chairman, Ulrich Ogiermann.

“Shippers are the ultimate customers of the global air cargo supply chain,” he told FTW, “and deserve to be identified as such.”

He said the initiative recognised the importance for air cargo service providers of gaining a more complete understanding of the needs of shippers.

This is designed to provide a forum for shippers to get closer to existing and prospective air logistics partners to exchange ideas, discuss changing needs and challenges, and to develop new business opportunities.

“Our free membership

offer defines a shipper as a manufacturer, wholesaler/distributor, retailer, or the ultimate importer/original exporter,” Ogiermann said.

Shippers can register for free membership at: www.tiaca.org

Ngqura performance outstrips expectationQuantum leap in containers handled

By Joy Orlek

On April 4 the Port of Ngqura celebrated a full sixth months in operation – and with 90 vessels handled, both volumes and productivity have far outstripped expectation, TPT chief operating officer Nosipho Damasane told FTW last week.

The initial target was one vessel a day – the reality has been double that, with a quantum leap in the number of TEUs handled from 2 900 at the start to 19 500 in February this year.

MSC and Mitsui OSK Line are the main callers at present, having transferred from Port Elizabeth to Ngqura.

But Damasane is adamant that there is no

cannibalisation – rather port complementarity in action.

“We see PE primarily as an auto port with container handling capability.

“We have decided to cap it at 300 000 – 400 000 TEUs. Vessels that can’t be handled at PE will naturally migrate to Ngqura.

“Five years ago we decided to find room for transhipments in Cape Town, PE and Durban in advance of Coega,” she explained.

“We kept extra capacity in Cape Town for Luanda cargo, knowing that we would transfer that to Ngqura.”

In effect, business was created in advance of the port’s launch – and it’s already bearing fruit.

Of the 19 500 TEUs

handled in February, 70% were transhipments to southern Africa, including South Africa, Angola and the SADC.

During its first six months, Ngqura projected that it would handle 50 000 containers. The actual figure will be 53 300. For its first year of operation 100 000 were predicted – in reality this figure is likely to be 286 000 and by 2014/15 the budgeted figure is 414 726 with the actual figure likely to be 418 800 TEUs.

At the start people were sceptical, said Damasane.

“The first three months were a trial period during which they were testing the waters.

“The quantum leap has come in the past

three months.”This is evident also in

the numbers of trucks entering the port – from 1900 in October 2009 to 3284 in February 2010. And in terms of turnaround time, the figure is currently around 36.2 minutes against a target of 35.

Productivity, she says, has and will continue to be high on the agenda.

“In the recruitment of staff, we upped our game in terms of entry level of port workers and looked at unemployed graduates and trained them.

“When volumes increased in January and February, there was a dip in productivity which was immediately addressed.

“In March and April we are recruiting further staff

to increase the number of gangs available.

“The biggest challenge now is to fast-track equipment so that we can get in people, train them and improve productivity.”

Rail too is an important part of the mix. “We need to enhance our rail system to ensure that the route to the hinterland is in place.”

By the end of February, 146 trains had already been handled.

The statistics provided by port management paint a very positive picture.

A whistle-stop tour of the port revealed a world class facility driven by passionate staff, determined to make it work – all it needs now is more shipping lines to recognise its potential.

MOL and MSC are the main callers ... The initial target was one vessel a day – the reality has been double that.

Land reform programme not hitting exports – yetCitrus farms a particular concern

By Alan Peat

Concerns over the impact of the land reform programme on agricultural exports have been allayed – for now.

Johan Pienaar, deputy executive director of economics and trade at the farmers’ central body, AgriSA, says the programme is not having a noticeable impact on SA agriexports, as yet.

This follows marketplace talk about farmers whose land was due to be redistributed, not intensively farming it land prior to the hand-over.

This, said certain commentators, could lead to export-oriented farmland being allowed to literally go fallow – and hit SA’s export potential of that specific crop. Part of the discussion related to certain citrus farms which were involved in the land claims process.

But Pienaar refused to confirm this theory.

He had no knowledge of commercial farmers cutting back on crop output, he told FTW. But, he added: “There have been cases where the new owners didn’t live up to expectation.

“It is disappointing that redistribution has led to less than optimum usage.

“But there is no impact on exports as yet.”

The discussion was also accelerated after certain Independent Group newspapers, including the Sunday Independent, carried a story about the hand-over of 150 000-hectares of land in Magoebaskloof in Limpopo to the Makgoba-tribe, and the farmland no longer being commercially productive.

According to the Regional Land Claims Commission, 119 Magoebaskloof farms were under claim and were subsequently gazetted.

At the time, an executive member of Agri-Letaba indicated that the

Magoebaskloof area annually generated an estimated R550-million; and in another valuation, the plantations and tea and fruit farms in the Magoebaskloof that formed part of the landclaim of the Makgoba tribe, were valued at R3.5-billion.

Such a handover is contrary to a statement ascribed to the department of agriculture, which was reported to have said that it had no intention of disposing of productive farmland.

But such a situation is certainly of concern

to AgriSA.In just part of its policy

statement on land claims, the body said: “For the sake of greater certainty and trust, there should be clarity and transparency regarding transformation targets and the future thereof.

“The land redistribution process and broadening of access to other natural resources must be implemented with transparency within the context of recognising property rights, fair compensation and the

retention of production potential. There are concerns in certain areas regarding concealed expropriation without compensation, with resultant loss of property rights.”

“The state should use market value as a norm when acquiring land for land redistribution purposes. This also applies to expropriation....”

But these factors have had no significant impact on SA’s agri-export market up to now, according to Mike Froy, MD of perishable air export specialists, Grindrod PCA.

“None of the products which we handle have been noticeably reduced (this season),” he told FTW.

“But, of course, if less land was being used to produce export quality crops, that would certainly have an effect.

“However, up to our time of talking, that negative effect has not been evident.”

Transporters reasonably relaxed about World Cup restrictionsActivities at the ports should not be affected

By Alan Peat

The transport restrictions during the World Cup at the various host cities seem to be causing no major concerns for the road transport industry.

This was the finding of an investigation by Johan van Wyk of Sasol and Richard Durrant of Transheq Consulting on behalf of the Chemical and Allied Industries’ Association (CAIA) and Business Unity SA (Busa).

Information provided by the national and provincial disaster management departments indicated that the main host cities seemed well prepared, the two investigators said.

This was confirmed to FTW by freight industry specialists in Durban, Cape Town and Johannesburg.

Kevin Martin, MD of Freightliner and chairman of the Durban harbour carriers’ section of the SA Association of Freight Forwarders (Saaff), suggested that during match days, areas of about three kilometres radius surrounding the stadiums would be restricted for normal traffic.

“But this,” he added, “will not impact adversely on road transport carrying containers from the port onto the national road system.”

Mike Scott, executive of Cargo Carriers in Johannesburg and SA chairman of the Federation of Southern African Road Transport Associations (Fesarta), agreed.

“None of the national road system will be closed or restricted as a result of any match activity,” he said.

The Port of Cape Town should also be free of hassles for truckers.

The two investigators also told FTW that there could be traffic delays and limited road restrictions in the areas surrounding the designated fan parks and public viewing areas (PVAs) – for approximately three hours before and three hours after the games.

“But,” said Catherine Grant, director of trade policy at Busa, “the investigators’ report assures traders that normal import/export activities at the ports should not be affected by the World Cup and that business will continue as usual.”

Tracking system monitors every bump and vibrationBy Liesl Venter

Just knowing where cargo is at any particular time is all good and well. Being able to give clients the reassurance of what is happening to that very same cargo in real time is the ultimate.

And this is what ICM Group has achieved with the development and patenting of its new G-Track system.

“It started off as just an idea – something that would be great to have. About two years ago we set about turning it into reality,” says Kriba Naiken, ICM Group managing director: shipping. “Initially we were told that a real-time

system not only tracking cargo but basically telling you what is happening to that cargo at any given time or place, was impossible.”

But persistence paid off for the global logistics company and in December the system became operational. “We recently used it during the transportation of a transformer for Siemens from Rotterdam to Richards Bay and from there to the Medupi power station in Lephalale in Limpopo. Taking into account the value of the cargo, this system is phenomenal as it is monitoring the condition of the cargo 24 hours a day, seven days a week in real

time, and should anything go wrong, we will know immediately.”

Described as a unique, fully autonomous remote monitoring system that enables ICM to track movement of cargo during handling and transportation, it not only tracks the precise location of cargo, but also monitors every bump and vibration on all three axes.

“It can even monitor the ambient temperature. What makes this system so unique is that it can be as complex or as simple as the client requires, and can be tailor-made to suit their needs. And it is done cost-effectively,” says Naiken.

G-track consists of an onboard monitoring system that is a self-powered device that assimilates all movement data. Mounted on the cargo the device measures acceleration in all three aces such as the roll, pitch and yaw of a cargo vessel or the bumps and vibrations during overland transportation.

All measured data is reported to an off board management server via a stable remote communications link in real time that provides a web interface to the client.

“We therefore know what condition the cargo is experiencing at any time,” says Naiken.

Kriba Naiken … ‘Monitoring the condition of the cargo 24 hours a day, seven days a week in real time.’

TPT focuses on improving operational efficienciesBy Ray Smuts

Improved operational efficiencies do not necessarily imply higher costs, Transnet Port Terminals’ Velile Dube made clear last week.

The general manager of TPT’s newly-created total

quality and continuous improvement department says the department’s primary strategy is to continually direct people and processes towards meeting customer expectations by seeking “small improvements” in processes and services.

Explaining the functionality of his department, Dube says it comprises a 10-member team with individuals drawn from various sectors of the business.

“We come with different skill sets but complement

each other in our execution of the business improvement initiatives.

He makes the point Transnet has over the last few years spent a lot of money on projects of a capital nature.

“It is however very clear to all of us that such

projects can be very expensive if not complemented by day-to-day operational performance initiatives aimed at improving business performance in a well thought through and actionable manner.”

Well-travelled container brings cheer to Cape communityIn the world of freight forwarding containers may be two a penny, but for a small community on the Cape Flats it is life changing.

In Kleinvlei at Eerste Rivier on the Cape Flats the arrival of a new container, renovated as a community kitchen, was welcomed with much fanfare last week – even more so considering it was handed over by none other than the Lady Mayoress of London, Claire Anstee.

One could however be forgiven for not immediately seeing the connection between the small community, the container and the City of London.

In what can be described as a unique way of reaching out to the poor communities of the world, the container was donated to the people of Kleinvlei after being used by the BBC in a project looking at globalisation and international trade.

According to a spokesman the project, launched by the BBC in September 2008, saw the container fitted with a tracking device and used as a living example of globalisation and international trade.

“People around the world followed the progress through the Internet as the container during the twelve months of the project travelled from the United Kingdom to China, Japan, the United States,

Brazil, Singapore, back to Japan before ending its journey in the UK again,” said the spokesman.

In October last year the BBC decided to give the container to an African charity, Breadline Africa, for transformation into a community kitchen. With the handover effected in London in November last year, the container undertook its final journey to Cape Town at the end of 2009 where it was refurbished on arrival.

Last week the newly renovated container arrived in Kleinvlei where Anstee handed it over to the community at a function at the local school.

Among the dignitaries who attended the event were Clint Carmichael of NYK Shipping Lines, who donated the container, and Fundi Maponyane of Maersk Line, who transported it to Cape Town.

Private sector participation

operators when the current productivity is where it should be,” she said. “We are investing and improving as much as we can and won’t shy away from partnerships in rail and ports.

“If you look at models in South East Asia, the private sector was brought in when ports were well into 25 years of development.”

For South Africa’s fledgling Port of Ngqura, volumes so far have far exceeded expectation.

“We have very bullish plans in terms of the role the terminal will play in the region and South Africa,” said Socikwa.

“We’ve already seen that it’s starting to play a critical role as a transhipment point in South Africa. There’s still development taking place and our focus now is to ensure that there is no cannibalisation and that we optimise the complementary nature of our ports.”

According to Socikwa, perfomance levels are benchmarked against the

best terminal operations in the world.

And while a significant amount of money has been invested in its development he is confident that the returns over time will prove that it’s been money well spent.

“A deepwater port was vital for the SA economy. While Ngqura is stranded in terms of its hinterland, it must be seen as a hub port primarily focused on transhipment cargo.”

From page 1

Karl Socikwa ... ‘Partnership with other players is an issue that will be addressed in the future.’

second port at Durban

projects there are 65 smaller projects that are under way at the port – which, said Ricky Bhikraj, Durban port manager, will range from R1-million to R150-m.

Moses said Transnet’s infrastructure planning strategy indicated that a second port in Durban might be needed by 2025 – and the utility was considering the now-historic two options.

“One is that we can dig up property that we own

at Bayhead and extend the current port. Or we could build a new port at the current airport site,” said Moses.

Airports Company SA (Acsa) has put the land up for sale because it will be moving the airport to La Mercy from next month.

“Currently we have no intentions of acquiring that land. We would be comfortable with it staying within government,” Moses said.

A pre-feasibility study

has been completed on extending Bayhead and the findings show that it would be viable.

The deepening and widening of the entrance and port channels at SA’s premier Port of Durban has also been completed – the R3-billion project finished a month ahead of schedule, and under the forecasted cost.

This will allow the port to handle container vessels with a capacity of up to 9 200-TEUs

Zimbabwe adjusts customs tariffsBy Alan Peat

Like an economic juggler, the Zimbabwe government’s finance authorities are busy adjusting customs tariffs to support what they term goods of “strategic importance”.

These customs’ duties are a big contribution to the country’s total income – recorded at 22.7% (US$212.2-million) of total revenue receipts in 2009, of which US$49.4-m was obtained from oil imports.

And, while Zimbabwe is a signatory to the Southern African Development Community (SADC) free trade area (FTA), various goods imported from other member states of the FTA continue to face customs duties, according to the latest research by Standard Bank’s Zimbabwe economics specialist, Yvette Babb.

The path Zimbabwe is supposed to follow in this

regional trading agreement is that 85% of goods imported by Zimbabwe originating in SADC are required to face a zero per cent tariff, with the remaining 15% tariffs to be reduced by 2012.

“But,” said Babb, “products still subject to import barriers are deemed to be sensitive goods which receive protection in the form of tariffs because of their ‘strategic importance’ to the economy.

“The government of Zimbabwe has continued to use tariffs as a measure of protection for its domestic industries in the past decade, increasing the rate of tariffs for products that are produced locally while lowering tariffs on intermediate goods and capital equipment that are imported by local producers.”

However, Babb noted, the government moved to suspend customs duties on

basic commodities with the launch of the short-term economic recovery programme (Sterp) – and the minister of finance moved to extend this measure until July 31, 2010. Also, the suspension was extended to selected inputs used in local production of basic commodities.

The commodities on which duty is suspended include cooking oil, margarine, rice, flour, salt, mealie-meal, bath and laundry soap, washing powder, toothpaste and petroleum jelly.

And, Babb told FTW: “Customs duties on select capital goods and intermediate goods were reduced further in the 2010 budget – with duty on half-tonne pickup trucks, for example, dropping from 40% to 25%; small passenger motor vehicles (40% to 25%) and livestock for breeding (5% to 0%).”
