The Intemational Riversymposium is an integral part of Brisbane's annual broadbased cultural event. The Queensland Government is a foundation partner of the Intemational River Foundation, formed to secure the future of the Intemational and National Thiess Riverprize. The theme of symposium in this year is “Water and Food Security- Rivers in a Global Context” ( www.riversymposium.com ). The Riversymposium provides a global forum which aims to make a difference to the declining state of rivers and waterways globally. Its strength lies in the breadth of its challenging program content of important keynote presentations and case studies of rivers in crisis, attracting a diverse range of national and intemational delegates. Some 450 scientists from 38 countries attended this conference, and about 100 papers were presented on the symposium in 2005.展开更多

Shipping After entering into the 1990’s, the ship-building industry, badly affected by the long recession of the world shipping market, has been growing very slowly, while the competition has been a fierce one. From the shares enjoyed by the major shipping countries in the world, we can see that the first one is Japan which occupied 38%; South Korea came to the second,obtaining 15%; the third is Germany, being 8%. The shipbuilding industry in America is shrinking, owing to the high cost of production. Up to 1993,Japanese ship yards had still been in difficult situation, and many Japanese ship owners would rather order new ships from South Korea because the rising value of Japanese yen made it expensive to build in domestic yards. Nowadays, Japanese shipbuilding industry is exposed to the problem of scarce of labour force. The Korean shipbuilding industry,展开更多
