China expected to issue plan to boost shipping industry soon, insider

BEIJING, Mar 14, 2013 (Xinhua via COMTEX) -- China is expected to issue a plan to boost the shipping industry in the near future, an Economic Information Daily report said on Friday, citing an unnamed insider.

According to the report, China will provide favorable policies, such as subsidies, for ship demolition and purchases of shipping companies.


China's shipping industry has been in the red for two years running. In 2012, over 80 percent of the shipping companies in China incurred losses, according to Zhang Shouguo, vice chairman of the China Ship-owners Association. (Edited by Jiang Yujuan, jiangyj@xinhua.org)
