On April 25, 2021, Glotrans was honored to become a member of the Jury of the contest “VMU LOGISTICS STARTUP IDEAS 2021”contest.
The contest “VMU LOGISTICS STARTUP IDEAS 2021” for students of Vietnam Maritime University is organized by the Mekong Subregional Logistics Training Center - Japan and the delegation of Vietnam Maritime University.
The contest showed the passion for the Logistics industry as well as the surprising power of the students of the Maritime School. 4 teams have brought to the program creative, breakthrough ideas but also full of feasibility. It can be said that this is a practical, healthy playground that stimulates students to learn and explore extensive knowledge of the Logistics industry.
Glotrans would like to congratulate Vietnam Maritime University and the Mekong Subregional Logistics Training Center - Japan for successfully organizing the contest “VMU LOGISTICS STARTUP IDEAS 2021”. Glotrans has always accompanied the school on the journey of nurturing talents in the Logistics industry.
As global supply chains continue to shift and the air cargo industry enters a new phase of post-pandemic restructuring, Southeast Asia is increasingly positioned as a strategic air logistics hub on the global map
After two hot years driven by e-commerce and disruption in sea freight, the air-cargo market in 2025 is slowing as supply and demand gradually normalize, belly-capacity (passenger-aircraft freight space) recovers and trade policies fluctuate. For Vietnamese companies exporting high-value goods, this is the time to re-calculate the “sea-air mix” to optimize cost, time and shipment certainty.
From January 1, 2025, the FuelEU Maritime regulation officially takes effect, requiring ships to reduce their “well-to-wake” greenhouse gas intensity by 2% compared to the 2020 baseline, with targets rising progressively until 2050. As a result, “green” costs—including scarce alternative fuels, compliance fees, verification expenses, and carbon-related surcharges—are now clearly reflected in the invoices issued by carriers and shippers. FuelEU does not mandate the use of any specific fuel. Instead, it allows operators to choose the optimal combination of solutions—such as blended biofuels, LNG/bio-LNG, wind-assisted propulsion, or operational optimization—as long as the required emission intensity is achieved. In practice, on major European trade lanes, many carriers have already begun introducing separate “Green Compliance Surcharges” rather than incorporating all environmental costs into traditional bunker surcharges.
We wish our valued customers and partners a joyful and happy holiday.

The shipment of food additives was transported in container No. FCIU3301688 (20’), under B/L MPRSMUM1806, on the voyage from Nhavasheva Port (India) to Dinh Vu Port (Hai Phong, Vietnam) on 29/04/2017.
Company T (Plaintiff – the Insured) entered into an insurance contract with Company B (Defendant – the Insurer). After the insured event occurred, the Insurer alleged that the Insured had violated its obligation to prevent and mitigate losses. The Arbitral Tribunal acknowledged that such an obligation exists but concluded that the Insured did not breach it.
Under the insurance contract, the premium was to be paid in three installments, and in all three, the insured party was late in payment. When a dispute arose, the insurer (Defendant) argued that the insurance contract had terminated before the insured event occurred due to the late premium payment and therefore refused to make an insurance payout. However, the Arbitral Tribunal held a contrary view.
