Maritime Transportation And Shipping Talk

It’s happening again! More security checks and this time its not just any kind.

Full background check this time, all links to the past will be verified. Fingerprints and Photo to go with it goes without saying. A new ID card will be issued for all people that are working in the ports. Hmm!  Wondering were it will end up, the information that is?

Must be something they try to prevent. I guess they compare the security to the prisons. Wonder why they have a drug problem in prisons today? Must be the good security that they are trying to copy.   I like to hear from you with comments on this one. Where are we going with all this new security? After working around in various places of the ports for nearly 30 years I find this is a bit over the top. If you work in the marine industry and want access to any port facility you will soon find out what I’m talking about.
