\nStranded <\/b>Hanjin<\/b> ships to unload in Long Beach this week, South Korea says<\/b>
\n(excerpted<\/i> from LATimes.com, Sept 7, 2016)<\/i>
\nSouth Korea’s top economic policymaker said Wednesday that he expected Hanjin Shipping vessels marooned off Long Beach will be able to offload cargo this week.
\nFinance Minister Yoo Il-ho said at a government meeting that he expects\u00a0the cargo crisis<\/a>\u00a0caused by Hanjin’s slide toward bankruptcy will begin to ease this week, according to a ministry statement.
\nSouth Korea’s biggest ocean shipping line says it is seeking protection from its creditors in dozens of countries. A U.S. federal judge has temporarily granted Hanjin’s request for protection from its creditors and scheduled a hearing for Friday. South Korea’s government expects a ruling in Hanjin’s favor, said Kim Hyun-jung, an official at the foreign affairs ministry.
\nHanjin’s creditors rejected a rescue plan for the shipping company and refused to provide more funds. The move sent retailers and other companies worldwide scrambling to get at cargo on Hanjin vessels that have been stranded outside ports. Although Hanjin Shipping has more than $5.5 billion\u00a0in debt, it also needs to pay mounting fees to resolve the cargo crisis that sent shock waves through\u00a0the global economy ahead of the fall shopping season. Hanjin Group, the parent of the cash-strapped ship liner, has\u00a0promised $90 million<\/a>\u00a0to help relieve the cargo crisis by covering some of those costs.
