A large container ship owned by a company in Ehime Prefecture has stranded on the Suez Canal in Egypt, a strategic point for maritime transportation connecting Asia and Europe, and the canal has been blocked. We are preparing in advance to unload the cargo container in case there is no such thing, and there are concerns that the long-term work will have a longer impact on logistics.
On the 23rd of the Suez Canal in Egypt, a large container ship owned by Shoei Kisen in Ehime Prefecture and operated by a Taiwanese company has been stranded and the canal has been blocked, and 320 ships are waiting to pass. That's all.
The Suez Canal Authority's Secretary of State, Labia, who manages the canal, said in an interview with local media on the 28th that the ship moved 4 meters during the reef work the night before, and the work progressed with the addition of a large tugboat to the towing. Showed expectations for doing.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Labia revealed that President Sisi had instructed him to unload the cargo container and prepare to reduce the weight of the ship in case there was no progress in the work, and consulted with the salvage company. It means that we are preparing in advance.
It is expected that the work will take time if the container is actually unloaded, and there is concern that the impact on logistics will be even longer.
