Excerpt from Proceedings of the Special Committee on Bill (E2) To Enable the Establishment, Etc., Of Free Foreign Trade Zones
It was my first visit to Hamburg in twenty years. I had gone then originally in 1888, and this was 1908. I found that the free port of Hamburg in the twenty years intervening between my two visits, had twice been extended I found that the population of the city of Hamburg had increased from to Its population now is I found also that the free port part of the harbour of Hamburg had drawn to Hamburg, and was openly giver credit for so doing, an enormous increase in the port's business.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an overview of the debates surrounding the establishment of free ports, which are zones within a port that are exempt from customs duties and certain trade barriers. It explores the experiences of countries such as Germany, Italy, Denmark, the United States, and Mexico, which have established free ports. The author, an expert on port development, argues that free ports can play a significant role in promoting trade and economic growth. The book delves into the benefits of free ports, including increased customs revenue, reduced handling costs and turn around time for ships, and the attraction of large cargo for storage. It examines the challenges and criticisms associated with free ports, such as the potential for abuse and the need for effective regulation. The author concludes that free ports can be a valuable tool for economic development when properly implemented.
