每年9月的最后一周是国际海事组织的世界海事日周。为庆祝这个节日,国际海事组织每年都要确立一个宣传主题,并由该组织秘书长发表一篇讲话。1994年世界海事日的主题为“改进标准、培训和发证——国际海事组织对人的失误的反应”。值得注意的是秘书长今年讲话的言词比较强烈。他批评了一些政府和船东容忍低于标准船舶参加营运的做法并提出要禁止那些不愿实施国际规则的国家和船公司与那些愿意者的竞争。他在讲话中呼吁各国政府要加强港口国管理,船公司要增加航行安全和海上环境保护的责任性。
The last week of September each year is the IMO’s World Maritime Day. In order to celebrate this festival, every year the IMO has set a propaganda theme and a speech by the Secretary-General of the organization. The theme of World Maritime Day 1994 is “Improving Standards, Training and Certification - IMO Response to Human Mistakes”. It is noteworthy that the Secretary-General made a strong statement this year. He criticized some governments and shipowners for tolerating less than standard ships to participate in operations and proposed prohibiting competition from those who would not like those countries and shipping companies unwilling to implement international rules. In his speech, he urged all governments to strengthen port state management and shipping companies should increase their responsibility for navigational safety and maritime environmental protection.
