Online, August 31, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL, President: Koichi Muto) today announced its determination of ¥2 million in aid as well as providing a MOL containership to transport aid supplies for north-western Pakistan, as an emergency relief for extensive flooding caused by record-breaking rainfall during late July and early August.

We extend our condolences to all affected by the flood, and hope the affected regions can be quickly restored to liveable conditions.

Aid supplies will be accepted as follows:

・Items covered - Aid supplies from governmental institutions or government-approved aid organizations to be shipped to Pakistan for flood relief

・Loading port - Ports where MOL container ships directly call

・Unloading port - Karachi

・Period - Aid supplied delivered to MOL container yards at the pertinent ports of call before the end of October 2010. As shipping capacity is limited, transport of those supplies will be on a first-come first-shipped basis.
