Protest dynamics: Negotiations are stalled as student leaders demand the complete removal of the quota system. 3. Communication blackouts: The government has temporarily restricted internet access, affecting the flow of information and increasing public dissent. 4.

Corporate Moving — Persisting high costs and logistic constraints in global shipping. As the global shipping industry continues to face significant upheaval, our recent analysis reveals that the escalating costs and logistical challenges are more pronounced than ever. Amidst disruptions in the Red Sea stretching global shipping capacity and severe container shortages, the industry grapples with heightened operational complexities. Key insights from our detailed report include: 1. Geopolitical disruptions: Ongoing tensions in the Red Sea have dramatically reduced shipping traffic, necessitating more ships to service European and Asian routes. 2. Congestion and container shortages: Major ports including Singapore and Colombo face severe congestion due to a global shortfall in available containers, leading to longer waiting times and increased operational challenges. 3. Rising costs: The disruption has precipitated a significant increase in freight rates, with shipping container costs now exceeding four times their amount just nine months ago. 4. Adaptive strategies: To navigate these challenges, we are exploring alternative shipping methods and implementing temporary storage solutions to manage logistics more effectively.

Corporate Immigration — The UK Home Office urged to extend year-end date for expiry of biometric residence permits after postponing eVisas rollout. The controversial rollout of digital visas for non-EU migrants has been delayed, but without any change to the “cliff edge” year-end deadline. This leaves more than 4 million UK residents facing a race against time to avoid effectively becoming undocumented migrants. Initially, the Home Office stated that people would be able to apply for the new eVisas from June, but applications will now open later in 2024.
