In this case, after the shortage compensation of the goods, it filed an insurer subrogation with the carrier PEACE GARDEN at the Shanghai Maritime Court based on China's Insurance Law and the terms of the insurance contract. Because the ship is a Panamanian, and China and Panama still have no diplomatic relations, it is quite difficult to prove the certification of legal documents. After hard work, we forced the ship owners to reach a settlement agreement with BOC Insurance, which is an ideal one to the client.
