Intra-Asia trade is booming and not least the movement of part manufactured goods for final assembly and shipment. However, according to DB Schenker, it can take a cargo ship two weeks to make the journey from Penang to Shanghai for instance, thus denting the supply chain. Of course, airfreight takes only two days but is generally uneconomic apart from for the shipping of valuable cargo.
