Bro, now the situation has changed, China is a big brother now. Tanjong Pelepas is JiuhuAnd yet PSA is very optimistic building 66 berths at Tuas mega port.
That said the big shipping lines won’t totally shift over maybe just divert some traffic there. Singapore managed to fight off Tanjong Pelepas even as Maersk was major investor there diverting 85% of their regional cargo there.
I thought maersk has 33% share in the port of tanjung pelepas.China will appoint COSCO Shipping to pull CMA and Evergreen to move their transhipment hub to Batam with the help of Samudera Shipping Company.
Eventually the am is to persuade Maersk and Hapag to shift their transshipment hub to Batam also
Because sinkie is a transhipment hub. And most of the trade is with china. If china withdraws.....Have you ever wondered why ASEAN countries, despite having smaller shipments that could be sent directly and faster to China, still choose to send their containers to Singapore for consolidation before shipping to China?
,,imagine the number of SG Container Trucking Hauliers that will lose the business of inter-gateway railing.transfer of transhipment containers, when the Tuas Container Port is Fully operationalAnd yet PSA is very optimistic building 66 berths at Tuas mega port.
