Hanjin, a logistics company, has announced its commitment to providing emergency relief supplies for the victims of the earthquake in Venezuela. The project, organized by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), aims to transport 500 family tents to help those who lost their homes due to the disaster in June. Hanjin will handle the transportation through an international multimodal method, using both air and land routes.

The supplies will initially be sent from Incheon International Airport in South Korea, then travel via Canada to Bogota, Colombia, before being delivered by land to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela. The total distance covered is approximately 17,500km, which is nearly half of the Earth's circumference. To expedite the relief process, Hanjin has been working closely with airlines to secure emergency flights and has established a close cooperation system with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and local embassies to handle customs clearance procedures at the border between Colombia and Venezuela.

The company is committed to ensuring the safe and timely delivery of the relief supplies to the people of Venezuela.
