Chittagong depots raise charge by 10%, users denounce

As the government of Bangladesh increased diesel prices by 17% effective Monday September 21, the inland container depots (ICDs) in Chittagong have increased charges by 10% on the same day. Earlier, on April 19th, the off dock owners had increased charges by 8% after the government had increased diesel price by 15% then. The off dock charge hike has been denounced by the users, especially by the garment exporters, saying, their cost of doing business has gone up and the latest charge hike will further erode their competitiveness in the global market.

Water levels in the shallowest middle section of the Rhine River have fallen to 16 centimeters below the low-water threshold, threatening to halt all barge transportation on a critical supply chain corridor for central Europe that has experienced severely reduced traffic since early summer because of ongoing drought conditions. The actual navigable depth as of Monday was about 4. 25 feet, according to Germany’s Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration. Voyages through Switzerland and southern Germany have virtually stopped. The inability to move large volumes of containers and bulk goods between major North Sea ports and inland centers is creating huge operational headaches and cost pressures for businesses and their logistics partners.
