Ferry safety and IMO

摘要

The new IMO secretary-general is to be the keynote speaker at trade association Interferes 41st annual conference in Manila this October. Korea's Kitack Lim, whose term started on January 1, will address the opening conference session on October 17 following an invitation inspired by ten years of IMO and Interferry cooperation to improve domestic ferry safety in developing nations. The campaign has recently focused on SE Asia, where an estimated 10,000 have died in domestic ferry incidents since the year 2000.
