The successful bidding renders SIPG one of the global terminal operators networking and helps improve the competitive edge in its core business and enhances the strategic cooperation with international ports and shipping liners.

On the other hand, this project is one of the substantive steps to respond to the national ‘One Belt, One Road’ strategy.
