The alternative reality of the CEO of the Port of Ashdod and the Minister of the Cost of Living
The Steel Union last night read in Walla!
The column published by the director general of the Port of Ashdod - in which he claimed that there was no connection between the traffic jam at the ports and the cost of living and that the port workers under his management were breaking records - and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

NIS 9 billion a year, according to data from the Ministry of Finance authored by the chief economist, is the damage to the residents of the State of Israel as a result of the ongoing national default in seaports, NIS 9 billion that we all pay, citizens and citizens of Israel.
This is not a fate, it is an administrative omission that is entirely on the shoulders of Minister Merav Michaeli.
The Minister of Transportation and the one who leads the creation of the cost of living, lacks governance and the ability to stand up to the Histadrut and the professionals - including Raspan (head of the Shipping and Ports Authority), Yigal Maor and Ashdod Port Director General Moshe (Shiko) Jeanne, who published a column yesterday What he described as exposing the 'facts', when these are at best an 'alternative reality'.

The public is not dumb but still the public pays
Yesterday, Michaeli convened dozens of reporters to declare herself the savior of the public by default from which to this day she has consciously and distinctly ignored and has chosen to ignore.
Her public appearances are clear - only in launches, film cuts on ventures in which she has no part but her predecessors' labor, pompous statements that for those who understand the matter prove how detached and big - every easy action that will produce her great PR.
When it comes down to it
In cash, it can already be determined today based on the fact that the rise in steel prices alone will cost each buyer of an apartment between NIS 30-80,000, for each and every one who reaches the coveted status
. , A long queue that reaches up to about 100 ships over long weeks for which we all as mentioned pay.
The critical debate convened at the Economics Committee was not attended by Minister Michaeli or Office Director General Michal Frank without explaining why.

An alternative reality - in the absence of governing governance wins
As mentioned, yesterday the CEO of the Port of Ashdod published an opinion column in which he presents "facts" that are the distance between reality and East-West
. Claimed that "ports all over the world are congested and most of them are in a more difficult situation, given the global crisis in the logistics chain." The truth is the opposite - there are no traffic jams in any port in the world for general cargo ships - Shanghai in China and Los Angeles in the USA.
Mr Jean also claimed that the source of the traffic jam at his port was due to "ships that did not make an orderly and pre-arranged queue for unloading at the port".
For the information of the readers and Mr. Shiko - there is no such thing as "booking an appointment" for a 'general cargo' ship but only for a 'container ship'.
As for demand, this is not true at the moment for these ships, as the market demand has unfortunately not changed, since with the government's declarations of flooding the market in the construction of hundreds of thousands of housing the demand will also rise but there will be nothing to build them with. In ports already now.
Jeanne boasted about the port's achievements last year in shattering the scope of the unloading of ships that the port of Ashdod knew, only forgetting that in life everything is relative.
While a standard general cargo ship takes the world to unload on average a day and a half, then the same ship in the government port of Ashdod takes to unload 4.5 days on average, the open secret - the scope of work shifts.
The port of Ashdod only works a 1-day shift compared to 3 as is customary all over the world, as also happens at the private Israeli port of shipyards in Haifa, which reaches higher outputs than the ports of Ashdod and Haifa combined, even though they are one tenth larger

The director of the Shipping Authority went underground
Captain Yigal Maor, Respan, the most senior professional in the Ministry of Transportation, went under the radar while the national body he trusted was at the height of one of the biggest crises Israel has known since its inception.
Captain Maor chooses to evade Like the Histadrut and other committees. The ministers change but the officials remain protected as a nature reserve in their workplace, which is reserved for the public who pay their salaries. There is no right to influence
. The state of emergency is not only in traffic jams that have become a painful routine, but also traffic jams in ports that hurt every day in the
pockets
of 9,000,000 Israeli citizens.
