Seoul: Hanjin Shipping has announced plans to launch a dedicated feeder service between Korea and Japan begining August 24th, 2008. KJS (Korea-Japan Service) will deploy one 400teu vessel on its weekly rotation between Busan-Tokyo-Osaka-Busan.
The liner company hopes that this service will promote sales within Asia and reduce vessel operation time while transshipping the Japanese local cargo to Europe and the U.S. Additionally, Hanjin Shipping expects that the introduction of this new KJS will minimize the bottleneck situation at Asian ports for the services that call Japan. The company's dedicated terminal in Busan will also benefit form this dedicated service. [15/08/08]
