The General Union supports Libya’s national maritime strategy
He stressed that the General of Chambers of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture for the national strategy for maritime transport, which pushes for the exploitation of the sea for transportation between Libyan cities and travel on board ships to other countries, due to the various advantages enjoyed by sea transport, including low operational costs, as well as benefiting from tourism advantages. ‘‘This sector is important for any country that has a long coastline like Libya’’, he emphasised.
