2. Quote by Ms. Smitha Shetty, Regional Director, APAC, Achilles Information Limited
"On this World Maritime Day, we emphasize the need for a safe, sustainable, and green maritime sector. With maritime transport accounting for 95% of India’s external trade, our extensive coastline and ports are vital to economic growth. The Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision 2047 sets a bold path for transformation, but it requires international cooperation to address maritime threats—from piracy to emerging risks like drone attacks. Together, we can build a resilient maritime future that not only drives trade but also safeguards our oceans and communities. At Achilles, we are proud to foster a culture of safety and supply chain resilience through our Maritime Network, empowering shipping companies to prioritize their most valuable asset: their workforce. By prioritizing safety protocols and collaborative efforts, we can safeguard our oceans, protect maritime workers, and ensure that future generations inherit a resilient and thriving maritime industry. Together, we can create a sustainable framework that fosters trust, innovation, and security on the high seas."
