What is the Current World
Shipping Scenario ?
World Economy & Outlook
The world has witnessed negative effects of global economic recession of late 2008 viz:
 Global Liquidity Crisis
 Shipping industry and trade being the most affected sectors of world trade
 Low freight indices and rates have changed the market dynamics
 Imbalance of demand & supply as capacity has outweighed trade growth.
World Economy & Outlook
Global economic recovery has further weakened and became more uneven due:
 Earthquake and tsunami in Japan disrupted global manufacturing – 2011
 Arab spring drove up oil prices
 Financial strains in Euro area financial and sovereign debt markets deepened
 Crisis in
Ukraine, Syria & Iraq (ISIS)

Wasn’t 2014 the year shipping markets
were meant to be better?
Since the dust settled on the global financial crisis the
shipping industry seems to have been on the verge of a
medium term recovery, however, year after year it has
remained tantalizingly on the horizon but never getting
any nearer.

carried by Foreign Carriers. Foreign dominance

Why have we come to this status ?
Why have we come to this status ?
 Lack of awareness, political will & lukewarm Patronage due to Continental
mind set
 Legal regime not in harmony with international best practices.
 Manifestos of political parties not adequately connecting food, defence and
energy security of Pakistan to maritime domain
 Poor image of Industry
 Absence of Cabotage trade
Suitable Environment Available ? - YES

67 M ton/annum of Pakistan seaborne trade to carry

Assured Cargo of approx. 23 m ton per annum (POL & LNG). Transportation cost
in P RS, saving of FE component

Employment for Pakistani seafarers. Graduates of Pakistan Marine Academy

Freight rates are improving

Price of ships are still 45% lesser than 2008 prices. A rare and real opportunity.

Expanding requirement of dredging

Funding up to 80% available for purchase of vessels
What can Pakistan do ?
&
Who will do it ?
Solutions
What should the Government do ?

2001 Shipping Policy be revised - More incentives to investors and existing
anomalies be removed

Tanker and LNG ships be added to carry captive cargo of LNG and POL

Modern dredgers be added to augment current capacity

Govt. Directive to CNS as Chief Technical Advisor on Maritime Affairs be
completely revamped, to be comprehensive and effective.

Policy - Heads of all Maritime Organizations & BoD be institutionalized
What should the Private Sector & Media do ?

Private sector particularly Bahria Foundation should take a step forward and
invest in shipping including dredging.

Bahria & other Universities conduct courses country wide in maritime discipline
particularly shipping

TV channels should dedicate airtime on regular basis for awareness and
promotion of shipping industry in Pakistan
What should the Politicians do ?
 Add
a Chapter in party manifesto to harvest God
Given Gift
 Bring
about fresh and attractive policies for shipping
sector like many other maritime nations including
India have done
Finally, What can you do ?
Just Remember…
YOU are a
Maritime Nation!
Act Accordingly!
THANK YOU
