Maersk Line Asia Pacific optimistic about shipping industry

Mr Jesper Praestensgaard CEO of Maersk Line Asia Pacific describes 2009 as the worst year for both the shipping industry and Maersk Line since World War II. He said that “Out with the old, on with the new which can only be good news for the maritime industry. This is evident from the fact that 2009 is the first time in our 100 year history that the AP Moller Maersk Group has posted a half yearly loss.”
