As soon as demand improves for a particular species producers are ready to take advantage of this through a price increase.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>During June log prices remained unchanged except for the sudden rise for bibolo\/dibetou which is up by euro 30 per cubic metre and for ovangkol for which prices have jumped euro 35 per cubic metre and are still rising.<\/p>\n<p>Sawnwood prices are unchanged from a month ago but expected to trend firmer. Analysts write \u201cit seems likely okoume prices will move higher due to very strong demand which appears set to continue\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chinese shipping company may begin a service out of Douala<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The major problems with shipping out of Douala are not yet resolved. The performance of operations at the new port of Kribi has improved, say exporters, but Cameroon is now refusing to accept cargo from Congo Brazzaville and Gabon on the grounds that there is no formal Customs Agreement between the countries.<\/p>\n<p>At Douala Port the congestion and other problems are still causing severe difficulties especially for timber exporters but also for incoming cargo.<\/p>\n<p>It has been rumoured that a Chinese shipping company may begin a fortnightly service out of Douala.In response to this some shippers are said to be unloading containers as they expect the new non-container service could be faster.<\/p>\n<p>If this becomes a reality it will help towards the shortage of empty containers at Douala.<\/p>\n<p>In other news from Cameroon there are rumours the government will put in place a log quota system similar to that in Congo Brazzaville, no date is mentioned, but possibly by the beginning of next year. Cameroon already has had a form of quota for prime log species but this appears not to be fully implemented.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CAR unrest \u2013 mills at a standstill<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It has been reported that timber businesses in the CAR are at a standstill due to civil unrest. Also, it is rumoured that Rougier is trying to find a buyer for its concession, sawmill and other assets in the country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Civil service shake-up in Gabon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The government in Gabon intends to slash public service jobs after cabinet approval was given for an economic revitalisation drive. Ike Ngouoni, a government spokesperson said this will check what he termed \u2018the bloated Civil Service whose wage bill is 59% of State revenue\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The domestic media are reporting that public servants earning more than CFA650,000 month will have their pay cut by 5%, those earning more than CFA2 million will face a 15% cut.<\/p>\n<p>Producers in Gabon believe the new Forests Minister will have a more pragmatic approach to the timber business and is prepared to listen to the views of the trade. Efforts are still underway to find an equitable formula for sale of the already harvested kevazingo and the trade hopes for a limited harvest volume of this much sought after timber.<\/p>\n<p>Producers in Gabon say that, because of the high costs of compliance with the EUTR, they are now much less interested in sales to Europe. There is now very firm demand in other markets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Log Export Prices<\/strong><\/p>\n<table class=\"article-content\" border=\"1\" frame=\"box\" rules=\"all\" cellspacing=\"1\"
