Re LF Global Logistics – Philippines
Dear ASA members we have recently received complaints from a couple of members of constant delayed payments from LF Global Logistics, and not adhering to agreed payment terms, therefore I will be posting a Red Alert credit warning on their directory page in our ASA Worldwide Directory.
However, we would like to know if any other members are dealing with LF Global ? and if so are you having any payment issues ?
Please send your replies to me with a cc to Roy Loken.
Many thanks
Best regards
Robert

May I take this opportunity to remind all members attending this years Conference in Shenzhen in October to double check the Visa requirements to enter China. Do you need a visa travelling from your country, or your passport ?.
China has arrangements with many countries where you do not need a Visa – Check if this applies to your country. If your country doe not have an exemption then you should apply for a Visa right away. Do not leave it to the last minute as these can take 4- 8 weeks in some regions.
If you need a Visa you may also require a letter of invitation from ASA Network to attend the conference or an invitation from our host member Eastrong International Logistics, if this is a requirement then let me or Roy, know right away and we can organise this for you.
Every year we get a couple of members that have left it to late to get their Visa, please make sure this will not apply to you.
This years conference is already looking like it will be bigger than last years if you have not yet booked your place please do so now. If you need a Visa apply now don’t leave it until another day.
We are looking forward to meeting all our old friends and making new ones this year in Shenzhen.
Many thanks
Best regards
Robert
