Even potential exposure to the virus has been dealt with strongly, as seen by the tests required of those Melbourne jockeys who had been in Sydney last weekend. Australia, Hong Kong and Japan are the three major jurisdictions who have been able to continue racing throughout the pandemic. The United States has also continued without stopping, but the country has also seen a number of outbreaks amongst participants - especially within their jockey colonies - and racing at a number of tracks has been postponed on many occasions. Australian prime minister Scott Morrison may talk of New South Wales being the “gold standard” when it comes to testing and contact tracing, but in the racing game, the land down under can rightly be seen as the gold standard.

  • The First Ascent of Haramosh
    12 THE FIRST ASCENT OF HARAMOSH THE FIRST ASCENT OF HARAMOSH BY H. ROISS (Translated by Hugh Merrick) T WAS the intention of the Austrian Himalaya Club to mount an expedition to Hidden Peak, but the Pakistan Government would not give permission for an attempt on that objective or any of the alternativ~s suggested by the Club. They did, however, grant a permit for an attempt on Haramosh (24,270 ft.), a mountain we had not considered in advance. Moreover, there was not much information about it in the available literature of the Himalaya ; so we had to get in touch with the leaders of the expeditions which had been active in the area in I947 and I955· These were the Swiss, Gyr and Kappeler, and the German party led by Reinhard Sander. They readily provided us with important information, which served us in good stead later on and for which we were most grateful. Our team included three scientists, Professors Konrad Wiche and Karl Jettmar, and Dr. E. Piffi, and five climbers, among whom was the expedition's doctor. These were Heinrich Roiss, the leader of the expedition, Dr. Franx Mandl, Rudolf Ebner, Stefan Pauer, and our medico, Dr. Rudolf Hammerschlag. In the field of science Wiche's assignment was geographical, J ettmar's ethnological, and Piffi's zoolo­ gical. Their work lay in the valleys of Gilgit and Haramosh, Tangir, Darel and Swat, and these three members of the University of Vienna only went with us as far as Iskere. Their work proved very repaying and resulted in the publication of several scientific reports, with more yet to follow.

The maritime industry plays an increas- ingly important role in the changing world economy, and this new series offers an outlet for reviewing trends and developments over time as well as analysing how such changes are affecting trade, transport, the environ- ment and financial markets. Each title in the series will communicate key research findings, shaping new approaches to maritime economics. The core audience will be academic, as well as policymakers, regulators and international maritime authorities and organisations. Individual titles will often be theoretically informed but will always be firmly evidence- based, seeking to link theory to policy outcomes and changing practices.
