Ministry of Shipping, Government of India has extended its non-financial support to Mumbai and Nhava Sheva Ship Agents Association for its proposed conference on `Ease of doing business’ on Friday, May 6 at the Hotel St. Regis, Mumbai.

This was confirmed by a Senior Officer, of the MoS, in a letter to MANSA following the President's request, during a visit to the ministry office to appraise them about the conference and the objective behind the same.

The conference apart from the inaugural session will be demarcated into three segments. This includes issues on ease of doing business with respect to Shipping (Ocean Freight) ; Ports & Terminals ; and Inland logistics (including Rail / Road Transportation).

“It is necessary to sort out a host of related supporting systems speedily for mitigating and eliminating the existing impediments that have been wrongly and inadvertently crept in and institutionalized over several decades. However, with India attracting the attention of the global Maritime Trade, it is necessary to identify various visceral factors that are impacted while new system is adapted,” Captain Vivek Anand said.

The conference is the second such initiative by MANSA following the success it received in its last conference on the subject of Competition / Anti-trust Laws and Anti-bribery / Corruption laws.

“The proposed conference will also maintain the momentum generated by the India Maritime Summit to be held in mid-April in Mumbai in the august presence of Honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the top honchos of the maritime fraternity globally. While the broad policy issues will govern the maritime summit, our conference will discuss the nitty-gritty issues felt by the stakeholders at the operational level that pinches the economy and makes it non-competitive,” Captain Anand said.
