The Mekong Delta is a strategically important region in terms of politics, economics, socio-culture, culture, national defense and security, and foreign affairs of the country. It was also one of the six key economic regions, contributing about 50% of rice output, 95% of rice exports, 65% of aquaculture production, and 70% of all types of fruits nationwide. The potential and demand for logistics services were significant, but the current infrastructure and capacity of the logistics service industry in the region still faced limitations, not contributing much to the economic and social development of the area.
Based on the need to enhance the role of logistics in the economic development of the region, on December 2nd, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in coordination with the People's Committee of Can Tho City, organized the Vietnam Logistics Forum 2023 with the theme "Logistics and Digital Transformation for the Mekong Delta."
During the forum, delegates expressed the view that digital transformation in logistics helped reduce logistics costs, improve service quality and customer experience, enhance internal organization cohesion, and connectivity within the supply chain. This, in turn, improved efficiency and enhanced the competitiveness of businesses, the logistics service industry, and the entire economy in general.
This was an opportunity for GLOTRANS to meet, exchange, and learn more about the Mekong Delta market, thereby identifying customer needs and creating value for the development of the Logistics industry in the Southwest region. It positioned the GLOTRANS brand widely across the country, accompanying the "Digital Transformation" campaign in the Vietnamese Logistics industry.
For many years, logistics was viewed primarily as a back-end support function. Today, amid increasing global trade volatility, logistics has become a strategic factor directly influencing business growth, risk management capability, and long-term competitiveness.
Amid ongoing global supply chain restructuring, Vietnam is emerging as a key manufacturing and sourcing hub in Asia. The “China+1” strategy and the need for risk diversification are driving multinational corporations to expand their presence in Vietnam.
Entering April 2026, escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz have triggered a systemic disruption across global logistics networks. However, for Vietnamese import-export enterprises, the immediate risk is no longer confined to the Middle East. The critical pressure point has shifted to Asia’s transshipment hubs-most notably Singapore-where congestion is now constraining regional cargo flows at scale.
Glotrans would like to inform our valued Customers and Partners of our upcoming holiday schedule as follows:

The shipment of food additives was transported in container No. FCIU3301688 (20’), under B/L MPRSMUM1806, on the voyage from Nhavasheva Port (India) to Dinh Vu Port (Hai Phong, Vietnam) on 29/04/2017.
Company T (Plaintiff – the Insured) entered into an insurance contract with Company B (Defendant – the Insurer). After the insured event occurred, the Insurer alleged that the Insured had violated its obligation to prevent and mitigate losses. The Arbitral Tribunal acknowledged that such an obligation exists but concluded that the Insured did not breach it.
Under the insurance contract, the premium was to be paid in three installments, and in all three, the insured party was late in payment. When a dispute arose, the insurer (Defendant) argued that the insurance contract had terminated before the insured event occurred due to the late premium payment and therefore refused to make an insurance payout. However, the Arbitral Tribunal held a contrary view.
