King Abdul Aziz Port in Dammam Launches TPA Service to Link Saudi Arabia with Chinese Ports and the Pacific Ocean Shipping Arabia, April 26, 2024 — The Saudi Ports Authority "Mawani" has enhanced King Abdul Aziz Port’s global connectivity with the introduction of the TPA service operated by Evergreen, linking Saudi Arabia directly to Chinese ports and the Pacific Ocean. This initiative is designed to facilitate trade and export activities, thereby expanding the Kingdom’s reach into vital international markets. The service addition aligns with Mawani’s strategic objectives to augment port efficiency and bolster infrastructure capabilities. It follows significant infrastructural investments at King Abdul Aziz Port, including the expansion of two container terminals in collaboration with the Saudi Global Ports Company "SGP." This project, funded by over seven billion riyals and executed on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis, is anticipated to increase container handling capacity to 7.5 million TEUs, reflecting a growth of more than 120%. Connecting Dammam with 11 regional and international ports, the TPA service by Evergreen includes stops at Kelang, Malaysia; Cai Mep, Vietnam; and prominent Chinese ports like Hong Kong, Qingdao, Ningbo, Shanghai, and Yantian, as well as Taipei and Kaohsiung in Taiwan, Um Qasr in Iraq, and Jebel Ali in the United Arab Emirates. Operating on a weekly schedule, this service offers a capacity of up to 6,000 TEUs. King Abdul Aziz Port serves as a crucial logistical node on the Arabian Gulf, linked by rail to Riyadh Dry Port and acting as a primary channel for the influx of goods to Saudi Arabia’s Eastern and Central regions. This role is crucial in the implementation of the National Transport and Logistics Strategy (NTLS), aimed at establishing Saudi Arabia as a global logistics hub bridging three continents. The introduction of the TPA service is expected to significantly bolster King Abdul Aziz Port's capabilities, enhancing its status in the international maritime logistics sector and supporting the Kingdom's economic expansion.

The delay in the commercialization of Gwadar International Airport has drawn significant criticism. Originally set for earlier operational status, the airport's opening has faced repeated postponements due to technical and logistical challenges, including delays in the delivery of equipment from China. The latest timeline suggests operations might begin by mid-2024. Despite its virtual inauguration in October 2024, concerns about the region's security situation and inadequate planning have impeded progress. Gwadar Airport, a flagship project under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), is a key piece of infrastructure intended to transform the region into an economic hub. However, these delays have raised concerns about the efficiency of project execution and the region's development trajectory​.

Airport security: Terrorism: Countermeasures: After a terrorist attack near Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport, the Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA) is all set to introduce stricter entry requirements as part of measures to ramp up security at the airport of the country’s mega city. A massive explosion occurred last month on a road near the airport, killing a total of three people — including two Chinese nationals — and injuring at least 16 others. In response, the police and Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) arrested three terrorists, including a woman, who were involved in a deadly blast, Sindh Home Minister Zia Ul Hassan Lanjar said a day earlier. The decision to tighten security protocols comes in response to growing concerns over safety at one of Pakistan’s busiest airports. Among the proposed changes, private taxi vehicles and their drivers will no longer be permitted to enter the airport premises, with only airport-bound traffic allowed to pass through. In a bid to reinforce physical barriers, the installation of iron gates at the airport entrances is also under consideration. The airport authorities are also taking proactive steps to manage suspicious activity. A dedicated area will be established to stop any vehicles deemed suspicious before they can approach the airport. https://lnkd.in/dmuSBrtf

There was recently a strange incident with a break of cockpit access rules on a SriLankan Airlines Official flight. The facts are still under investigation but what is known so far is that the co-pilot left the cockpit for a restroom break and the captain was left alone in the cockpit. When the co-pilot wanted to come back, the captain did keep the cockpit door locked. The co-pilot could only re-enter the cockpit after the cabin crew convinced the captain over the internal communication system. Our article summarizes the known facts - you know us, no speculation - and also explains how the Airbus cockpit door system works to prevent both unauthorized access, even if the intruder know the secret code, while being safe in case of pilot incapacitation. https://lnkd.in/dE4FY8Pr
