A ship is a large buoyant watercraft. Ships are generally distinguished from boats based on size, shape and cargo or passenger capacity. Ships are used on lakes, seas,rivers,and oceans for a variety of activities, such as the transport of people or goods, fishing, entertainment, public safety, and warfare. Historically, a "ship" was a sailing vessel with at least three square-rigged masts and a full bowsprit.
In armed conflict and in daily life, ships have become an integral part of modern commercial and military systems. Fishing boats are used by millions of fishermen throughout the world. Military forces operate vessels for naval warfare and to transport and support forces ashore. Commercial vessels, nearly 35,000 in number, carried 7.4 billion tons of cargo in 2007. As of 2011, there are about 104,304 ships with IMO numbers in the world.
Ships were always a key in history's great explorations and scientific and technological development. Navigators such as Zheng He spread such inventions as the compass and gunpowder. Ships have been used for such purposes as colonization and the slave trade, and have served scientific, cultural, and humanitarian needs. After the 16th century, new crops that had come from and to the Americas via the European seafarers significantly contributed to the world population growth.Ship transport has shaped the world's economy into today's energy-intensive pattern.

Completed between the years 1955 and 1955, the three movies were based on the two classic Bengali novels Pather Panchali (1929) and Aparajito (1932) written by Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay. The three films, Pather Panchali (Song of the Little Road), Aparajito (The Unvanquished) and Apur Sansar (The World of Apu), are now recognized as the finest movies of the Parallel Cinema movement and among the greatest films ever made.

On the ship from London back to India after training, he wrote the screenplay for his first film based on the novel. Making that first movie...
The China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone (SHFTZ), which opened on 29 September 2013, is another step toward financial reform and market liberalization and aims to introduce a series of overhauls in finance, shipping, trading, professional services, as well as cultural and social services. At first glance, the market access opportunities appear to be a huge step forward. After all, most of these are currently off-limits to foreign investors outside the SHFTZ, and besides lower hurdles on investor qualifications, investors stand to benefit from more flexible capital requirements and have more freedom to conduct business in China. In this webinar we will be looking at the outcome of the last 14 months and what benefits lie for foreign-invested SME’s.
