Cái Lân International Container Terminal (CICT) announced the launch of a new route for container vessels ACS Cái Lân connecting India, Malaysia, Singapore, Việt Nam, China and the Republic of Korea on Tuesday.
The operator of Cái Lân Terminal also welcomed the 5,023 TEU Hyundai Premium container ship from Hyundai Merchant Marine to the port during the launch.
Founded by an alliance between two leading carriers, Hyundai Merchant Marine and Gold Star Line, the new route goes through Cái Lân Terminal in the northern province of Quảng Ninh of Việt Nam once a week.
The Cái Lân link to the ACS international route is an opportunity for Quảng Ninh province and other northern localities to utilise their potential in the marine industry.
Nguyễn Đức Long, chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, said the province would establish a team delivering streamlined public administration services at the port and not collect port infrastructure fees to aid marine-based businesses.
