Prosecutors in tokyo have issued an arrest warrant for the wife of former niece and chairman carla skull they accuse carroll goan of lying to investigators over her husbands escape from japan where he was awaiting trial on corruption charges. His thoughts this is the moment when carlos ghosn left japanese soil since his daring escape on the 29th of december the story of how he managed to get out of japan has been slowly becoming clear his belief that he was smuggled onto a high speed train in tokyo and delivered to can sign International Airport near osaka city from there he left aboard a private jet ending a journey through japan that began inside a musical equipment box. However plenty of questions about the escape remain unanswered and carlos ghosn has hinted to News Networks that he may address some of those questions very soon. He said that he has actual evidence documents that will prove that this was a coup to take him down he said that hes going to need some people from the japanese government are behind this that they wanted to take him out because he was going to merge nissan with right now on tuesday an arrest warrant was issued for the x. Automotive bosses wife carol go on an increasingly frustrated japanese government has urged lebanon to help with the investigation mother who. We are making efforts to communicate with the lebanese government through various methods. And we plan on delivering our message to them that it is extremely regrettable that go who left japan illegally arrived in lebanon and also ask the necessary cooperation as we investigate the facts through the cool mom who committee the group. And it is to lebanon to the worlds press now turns specifically to a wealthy suburb of beirut and the house owned by carlos ghosn the fugitive with a story to tell Global Shipping companies are grappling with a new rule to fight pollution they have to cut the sulfur content in their fuel that means either spending more on cleaner marine fuel upfront or cleaning it out see both pricey options. No stench and no sick particles and yet the cops and the renzo spews out large quantities of sulfur into the air and has done so for years so for pollutes water and irritates the respiratory system at the start of the year it was prohibited most shipping companies now have to run their ships on low sulfur marine diesel its better for the environment but its also much more expensive. To get done with as a shipping company there is no way that we can bear these additional costs we work in a very low margin business and that means that the additional fuel costs will have to be passed on to the customer. Even if the costs are spread out over thousands of containers and customers then theyre tolerable but the price of diesel fuel fluctuates a way around the problem is to invest upfront in socalled scrubbers the devices remove the sulfur from normal heavy fuel oil on board the ship the zakah company and braman makes them. As it does i mean if there are real selling point is the payback time after operating the ship for a year or shipowners start saving money i. Think. But the scrubbers are gigantic not a problem for new ships but if the scrubbers installed after the ship was made it can get complicated container ship to close a small container ship or a typical feeder ship is very limited in space and that means it could be difficult installing a scrapper on board the jumbo box all the large jumbo boxers have such propulsion power that you have to consider positioning several scrubbers next to each other will be a. Meal will need not. Most german shipping companies would rather wait before they buy more than 90 percent of them use the more expensive marine diesel. The food is better its better to lower large amounts of the sulfur content on land rather than on each individual ship as of humans in shifts of. An ideal sulfur free fuel would be liquid natural gas but few ports have the infrastructure to support it the fuel would have to be delivered from far away by truck.
