Representing Glotrans at the signing ceremony was Mr. Truong Thai Huy – Deputy Sales Director of Glotrans Ho Chi Minh City. Both parties agreed to establish a comprehensive partnership to support each other in products and services. Notably, Mekong committed to prioritizing Glotrans for import shipments from South Korea as well as export shipments to markets such as Myanmar, China, Indonesia, and others. This is a significant step forward for Glotrans in enhancing its international logistics capabilities and optimizing the supply chain for its partners.
At the same time, Mekong will assign a dedicated team to work closely with Glotrans in trade and logistics activities, ensuring effective, prompt, and sustainable collaboration in the future.
This signing event not only marks a milestone in Glotrans’ development strategy but also demonstrates our strong commitment to connecting, sharing values, and accompanying our partners toward mutual success.
With a sustainable development orientation and an expanding network of strategic partnerships, Glotrans firmly believes that the collaboration with Mekong will lead to breakthrough advancements in the international logistics service supply chain.

The Insured’s Duty to Prevent and Mitigate Losses
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.
