CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE Whenever I talk about cricket I am exhilarated. For many of us, cricket holds a special place in our hearts. The sound of leather hitting willow gives us a feeling of unity and purpose, triggering emotions that transverse cultures and nations. Considering how CSS enjoyed a glorious past in UAE cricket, we are able to welcome this season’s Kerala Premier League with deserved pride. In many ways my happiness is boundless because, this year, CSS Group is KPL’s title sponsor, especially while we walk towards our 20th Anniversary. Like all sports, cricket has its ups and downs but here we are at CSS Group KPL Season 3. It’s something of an irony that once you are hooked, cricket never leaves you and you certainly cannot leave cricket. A love of cricket grasps your heart. KPL Dubai season 3 has gained a wonderful response from the cricketing fraternity. 12 teams from 12 districts of Kerala are competing for the coveted trophy. The patronage we received from the media was boundless. The corporate world also supported us with generous sponsorship.

Although the KPL matches will be half way through when you read this message, I feel that this is an opportune time to say, “Thank you”, to all those who have supported this event.

From the bottom of my heart T S Kaladharan I welcome you all to the ICC Grounds, to cheer on the enthusiastically competitive teams. At CSS we have always appreciated that team efforts bring results and it’s this recognition which drives us forward together. A team spirit, epitomised on the cricket pitch and emulated in the workplace, will always remain a corner stone to success. My best wishes to all my Dear Readers.

PROFESSIONAL TALK

BEWARE AND BE AWARE OF PACKING OF FLEXIBLE TANK (“Flexible tanks” or “Flexitanks” are a kind of storage equipment for liquids such as water, oil, wines etc.) continued ... PART 2

A Shipper in a standard bills of lading is responsible for the “Load, Stow and Count” of his cargo/consignment and hence if the Shipper intends on using a Flexitank to transport his consignment he should discuss with a flexitank operator the most suitable type of flexitank that will be compatible with the product to be shipped. Here the Shipper must also provide vital information detailing of the nature of the product and whether it could ‘solidify’, ‘taint’ or ‘damage’ the container in the event of a leakage, etc.

Though the carrier has a duty to “properly and carefully load, handle, stow, carry and keep, care for and discharge the goods carried” the task of proving the same is a different matter; in the event you are able to prove that the carrier is liable, keep in mind that most carriers have a limitation of liability

clause in their respective Bills of lading which will not be sufficient to cover the claimed amount.

Therefore it is upon the Shipper/Freight Forwarder/packers to protect their interest by take pictures of the empty container and at various stages during stuffing. As these photographs can be relied upon, in the event of a claim and to prove that special attention and measures were taken in relation to packing, securing and protecting the

Flexitank and consignment within the container. Further it is also essential to insist on adequate Insurance to be obtained for the cargo/consignment

It is far easier for the carrier to tactfully rid themselves of liability by taking a defense that the consignment was inadequately packed. In such instances all valid information that precautions were taken can definitely help to rebut this defense. In the unfortunate event of leakage or a potential claim the party receiving the consignment must accept delivery under protest and immediately put the carrier and insurer on notice, calling upon them to attend a joint survey. As an added precaution it is also advisable to put the shipper, consignee and all parties involved in the carriage on notice. As far as possible it is also better to open the container only at the time of the joint survey, in the presence of all concerned parties. Ensure that all

the details pertaining to the damage are inspected and recorded before the container is returned.

In most claim cases pertaining to Flexitanks the carriers will also claim all incidental cost in relation to damages, cost for clean up, and other charges caused due to the leakage of the consignment; from the shipper and/or consignee and/or the booking party.

A note of caution to all freight forwarder

Joy Thattil Maritime Lawyer & Partner @ Callidus Corporate & Maritime Consulting ( CCMC) Dubai & India

[email protected] and Non Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC), is to bear in mind that even though you may not be involved in the packing or stowing of the consignment, you can be faced with a claim for damage not only from the Shipper and/or Consignee but also from the Carrier. Hence it is always advisable to have an adequate insurance cover for such cases.

Ultimately the claims arising from the use of Flexitanks can be mitigated to a great extent by taking abundant caution and care and by engaging the services of a professional while exporting consignments using Flexible Tanks. It addition it is high time to have a statute to govern all aspects pertaining to Flexitank from the material to be use for manufacturing such tanks, to the packing, stowing, loading requirement, the specification on the load limit and the kind of container, proper labeling, etc, with the ultimate aim of roping in the packers and also holding them liable in case of potential claims.

SLEDGING IS NOT JUST FOR CHILDREN…

16

When I was a youngster I spent many happy hours, with my friends, building a sledge out of bits of wood. Somehow we managed to fly down slops, in summer sledging over short grass and in winter across firm snow, without breaking our necks! However, in recent years,‘sledging’ has gained greater prominence with cricket aficionados.This term apparently originated in the 60’s when Australian bowler Grahame Corling wasserenadedby some players singing ‘When a man loves a woman’- at that time a hit by USA soul singer Percy Sledge. It was attempt to taunt Corling so as to distract him from focusing on his play. Since then this practice, of trying to weaken an opponent’s concentration, has taken on the surname of Percy Sledge by being called ‘sledging’. Other sports have methods of distracting a competitor’s attention but the technique in cricket is unique. To understand thisit is necessary to explore cricket’s history. Despite the apparent recent popularity of sledging, the practice of witty banter between players is as old as cricket itself. Therein lies the difference between cricket and other sports. Ever since John McEnroe’s infamous outburst, on the tennis courts in Stockholm in 1984, the nature of goading in sport has risen to a level at which no genuine cricket fan would approve. The reason for this is based in cricket’s past. The first recorded cricket match took place in Kent, England in 1646. The game quickly became popular with the first ‘laws of cricket’ being established in 1744. The thrust of them focused on “gentlemen” playing the game. Subsequently conduct, on and off the pitch, required that all participants, players and spectators, behaved in an acceptable gentlemanly manner. Honour and integrity were at the forefront of play. A player never argued with the umpire. If you were

| LIGHTHOUSE | NOVEMBER-DECEMBER

given out – you walked! Generations of UK schoolboys had it drummed into them that,even if you felt you had been wrongly dismissed, you did not argue with the umpire’s decision. It probably made-up for all the times you should have given out and weren’t! Accordingly gentlemanly conduct ruled supreme.

There is now an on-going debate, in the cricketing world, as to what constitutes poor sportsmanship or good humoured banter. Anything which descends to abuse is unacceptable. This is not what sledging is all about as it should never cross the sportsmanship line. Sledging should be kept to humorous, sometimes slightly off the wall remarks and clever verbal attempts in order to distract an opponent.

Sledging has always been a part of cricket as even the legendary W G Grace did it. Grace’s determination to stand his ground would have made Sunil Gavaskar proud. When a ball knocked off one of his bails Grace replaced it and told the umpire that it was the wind which took the bail off. The umpire replied, “Indeed Dr. Grace and let us hope the wind helps you on your journey back to

the pavilion”. Grace walked with good humour.

Interestingly it is usually accepted that Indian cricketers, unlike the Aussies who love it, don’tsledge very much. There is one notable occasion, when the tables were turned and Ravi Shastri sledged Mike Whitney who was the Australian 12th man. Trying to snatch a single run Whitney shouted, “If you leave the crease I’ll break your blinking head”. Shastri quickly retorted, “If you could bat as well as you can talk, you wouldn’t be the blinking 12th man”. You do, of course, have my permission to assume that the language used was slightly more colourful!

I always prefer and chuckle at the short, sharp retorts. This is why I choose, as a favourite, one from‘Fiery Fred’ Trueman probably the most revered English bowler. As an Australian batsman was walking onto the field, he opened the gate and before he could shut it, Trueman shouted, “Don’t bother shutting it son, you won’t be here long enough”.

Cricket remains a game where many of us still hope our children are taught that it is not winning that counts the most. Rather it is playing a sportsmanlike match which matters more. An extract from a poem by former UK Prime Minister John Major, an ardent cricket enthusiast, sums up this cricketing ethos. It was written as a tribute to England test cricketer, Colin Cowdrey, who was born in Bangalore.

“The mellow sound of bat on ball, The wherewithal to enthrall, The master with a Corinthian touch, To whom victory mattered, but not that much”. Hopefully, with this in mind, you will agree that sledging should remain as witty banter that enhances the traditions of the cricketing spirit.

Humor in Uniform A lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a sheriff. He thinks he’s smarter being a big shot lawyer from New York and has a better education than a sheriff from West Virginia.

The sheriff asks for license and registration. The lawyer asks, “What for?” The sheriff responds, “You didn’t come to a complete stop at the stop sign.” The lawyer says, “I slowed down and no one was coming.” “You still didn’t come to a complete stop. License and registration please,” say the sheriff impatiently. The lawyer says, “If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I’ll give you my license and registration and you can give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don’t give me the ticket.” The sheriff says, “That sounds fair, please exit your vehicle.” The lawyer steps out and the sheriff takes out his nightstick and starts beating the lawyer with it. The sheriff says, “Do you want me to stop or just slow down?”
