December 9, 2004 (Press Release) --
A new online journal on Philippine maritime affairs has been launched with an inaugural issue that takes an in-depth look at the shutdown of commercial operations at the US$90-M Mindanao Container Terminal and some sticky points that have marred the Subic freeport container port project.
Updated every Monday before 01:00 GMT, The Marine Café(www.marine-cafe.com) is a virtual café that offers marine industry professionals authoritiave analysis of current affairs in the Philippines' ports, shippping and crewing sectors. It is designed to cater to businessmen and corporations with ongoing or planned investments in the country.
The Marine Café is described as 'a lean and mean' website that shuns straight news reports in favor of 'incisive and independent coverage of what's happening on the ground - the trends, the issues and the players.' It's an attempt, say the editors, to present marine industry news in a different way whilst reviving the classic idea of the coffeehouse as a popular forum for public discussion.
