ANNOUNCEMENT
TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:
The economic situation remains uncertain and freight rates are not covering basic operating or transportation costs. This is unsustainable in the long term.
In order to maintain a viable service level and a comprehensive liner network for our customers, OOCL would like to inform you that we have decided to restore freight rates to a more sustainable level.
With effect from September 15, 2009, freight rates for dry and reefer container shipments from Asia (P.R. China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Philippines, Indian Subcontinent and Middle East) Southbound to Australia will be increased by USD 300 per TEU.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support. For further inquiries, assistance or clarification, please contact our Customer Service and/or Sales and Marketing colleagues at telephone numbers 554-8039.
Please be guided accordingly.
Thank you.
