Korean cruise expert
"New corona, infected person in Japan if infected person gets off ship"
https://japanese.joins.com/JArticle/262364
 
 
It is the 22nd day as of the 10th.
More than 3,600 people have not yet been able to get off the ship.
The day they got on the boat was 20th last month.
It was supposed to get off the ship on the 3rd of this month.
One week has passed since the scheduled date.
The fear of passengers trapped in the ship is immeasurable.
The gaze of the world staring at the ship is uncertain.
I asked a cruise expert about the current situation.
Former Asia Cruise Leaders Network
(ACLN) Secretary-General,
President of the current Jeju International Convention Center
Kim Wig-gun (52) diagnosed this unprecedented event.
Mr Kim
"I cannot understand Japan's claim that cruise infected people are not Japanese infected people."
(The following explanation is from Chuong Ilbo ( JoongAng Ilbo )).

--- Let's sort out the concept .
What is Princess Cruise ,
What is a Diamond Princess?

"Princess Cruise has a new corona infection
Princess Cruise is a cruise ship called "Diamond Princess" of a cruise company called.
Princess Cruise is a UK-US joint venture that first departed in 1965.
Once known as one of the world's three largest cruise companies
Has been merged with Carnival Cruise Group in the United States.
Carnival Group is currently on the Royal Caribbean Cruise
Together with the world cruise market.
Princess Cruises is a cruise company with a long history.
1977, US TV show "THE LOVE BOAT"
Was the company's Pacific Princess.
At that time it was a super luxury pleasure boat
But now many ships are more than three times larger than this ship
(* Princess Cruise currently stops at about 330 ports on 6 continents
It operates about 150 products.
There are two ways to use cruise products from overseas cruise companies in Korea.
Selling overseas cruise company's Korea office and cruise products instead
Make a reservation with a domestic travel agency.
For example, Lotte Tourism sells products from Costa Cruise.
Many Koreans know Lotte sightseeing cruises
But there are people who don't know about Costa Cruise. "

--What kind of ship is Diamond Cruise?

"Princess Cruz currently has 17 types of ships.
The largest vessel is the 143,700 ton Majestic Princess
And the Diamond Princess is 115,875 tons,
The company's seventh largest ship.
Diamond Princess is a sister ship of the same size, Sapphire Princess
It was built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Japan, and entered service in 2004.
We understand that there are 2644 passengers and 1044 crew members on board this time
(* The Diamond Princess has a capacity of 2670 people.
The height is 62.48 meters, which is equivalent to a 20-story building,
The total length is 290 meters, almost the same as three soccer fields.
佃芳子(Yoshiko Tsukuda) is the nickname of the ship.
The name of the wife of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is named.)

--- Please explain this cruise product .

"One of Princess Cruise's annual products.
Princess Cruise "Asia Grand Tour" every year
It sells products for a schedule of about two weeks named.
After leaving Japan and calling China,
The ship visited Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
Itinerary to return to Japan.
Although not every time, It sometimes stop at Jeju-do or Busan.
In my memory, as the Asia Grand Tour, Sapphire Princess
I've been to Jeju-do many times
(* In April 2018, it was talked about a very large cruise entering Busan Port.
The ship at that time is Princess Cruise
Is the largest cruise ship, Majestic Princess.
Cruise products that call at three countries in Korea, Japan, and China
There are various cruise companies other than Princess Cruise.
Lotte sightseeing private cruise products are the best sellers in Korea.
The fact that there were only 9 Korean passengers with this product
The reason was that South Korea was not included in the itinerary.
Cruise products departing from Korea and traveling around the world
30,000 to 40,000 Korean users annually,
About 270,000 foreigners entered the country last year on a cruise.)
 
--The reason that Korean did not participate so much in this itinerary is
There were reports that it was because of the Japan boycott .

"Who said that?
It looks like someone who did not know the cruise market.
Internal affairs are unknown unless the company reveals it
But, as a cruise expert, you can expect enough.
Like Princess Cruise's Asia Grand Tour,
There are countries where cruise products that visit Asian countries must be included.
Japan and China.
Not only are there many cruise travelers in both countries,
These two countries are popular among Westerners.
The two countries will include a fixed schedule and choose other travel destinations.
In the case of China, the port where large cruises stop is determined.
Shanghai and Xiamen in southern China.
This trip does not include two cities in China.
I first saw an itinerary that did not include China on the Asia Grand Tour.
What does that mean? Cruise company worries about new Corona
That ship avoided landing in mainland China.
If you don't call Shanghai, you won't come to Korea. ''

--- If you don't call in Shanghai, why don't you come to Korea ?

"South Korea is a stopover for a day on the way to Shanghai.
If this ship is calling at Shanghai and you leave Korea from your schedule,
It can be seen that Korea's anti-Japanese sentiment was considered
But this is not the case.
If you give up calling Shanghai,
South Korea would not have been considered from the beginning.
In the cruise market, Korea is still not an attractive port of call.
In addition, there are too few berths considering the travel schedule on the 14th.
They spend a lot of days on board.
It can only be considered that the course was changed for the new corona.
Cruise travel courses can be modified shortly before departure
(* Diamond Princess left Yokohama last month.
He anchored in Kagoshima on the 22nd and arrived in Hong Kong on the 25th.
Here the affected Hong Kong infected person got off.
On 27th, we stopped in Da Nang, Vietnam,
Taiwan, Taipei on the 31st,
(I arrived in Yokohama on February 3 after passing through Okinawa and Naha on February 1).

--What about life on a cruise ship now?

"The first thing to be clear is:
There is no evidence yet that infected people in Hong Kong have spread the new corona on board.
It is only the most powerful scenario.
If it spreads by boat,
The cafeteria used by all passengers is the most influential.
Rooms are safe.
Nothing can enter if the doors of the guest rooms are closed tightly.
According to the instructions of the crew, if you are living a modest life in the cabin
I believe that the tendency to spread will gradually disappear
(※ Diamond Princess has eight types of guest rooms.
The most expensive suite is about 42.73 square meters (about 13 tsubo)
It is about 85.6 square meters (approximately 26 tsubo), and each room has a balcony.
"Interior cabin"
The lowest-priced guest rooms, which are called balconies and have no windows.
The area is about 15 square meters (about 4.5 tsubo).
The interior cabin is fully equipped with beds, toilets, refrigerators and TVs.
The price difference between suite rooms and interior rooms more than quadrupled.
Currently, passengers eat meals brought to their cabin,
They said that he was waiting in his cabin almost all day except for limited walks).

--- Where are the numbers of infected people on the cruise coming from?
The Japanese government claims it is "not Japan ."

"Cruise is a kind of extraterritorial jurisdiction.
International law does so.
We are aware that World Health Organization (WHO) standards are being followed.
The Japanese government seems to have applied WHO standards, but only on board.
According to reports, the Japanese government has landed infected people on mainland Japan.
If so, you will be a Japanese infected person from that moment.
If Japan is not going to take responsibility to the end,
No matter how much criticism he received,
infected people shouldn't drop off the ship.
Since we have taken the infected off the ship, we have to be proud of their responsibilities.
The fact that Diamond Princess is a U.S. ship has nothing to do with the current situation. ''

Officials from the Korean Embassy in Japan will be on the 5th.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan has notified that nine Korean nationals are on a cruise ship."
"No Koreans have yet tested positive for Wuhan pneumonia."
He said.
This stakeholder
"I haven't received any detailed information about these nine, including their family relationships and travel passes."
It was explained.

The Japanese government considers the coronavirus incubation period
Passengers and crew, including nine Koreans, were to remain on board for two weeks.

After it was confirmed that a Hong Kong man on board this ship had been infected with Wuhan pneumonia,
Japanese quarantine officials have sent quarantine officers to cruise ships on the evening of March 3.

In the morning of that day, Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare Katsunobu Katou held an emergency press conference,
"We collected samples from people with symptoms such as fever and 273 close contacts,
After testing 31 of these samples, 10 had a training response. ''
He said.
The cruise line had a total of 3711 passengers, 1045 passengers and 2666 sailors.
