Singapore is world's busiest container port in Q1
SINGAPORE : Singapore was the world's busiest container port in the first quarter of this year, beating Hong Kong by a fraction.
Hong Kong handled a total of 5.28 million 20-foot equivalent units of goods from January to March.
That is compared with the 5.3 million units handled by Singapore port operator PSA in same period.
Hong Kong is facing stiff competition from Shenzhen, where exporters can ship their goods at prices that are about one-third those charged in the territory. - CNA /ct -

Think this year may get again... March volume was highest ever, 1.91M TEU, 63,500 TEU per day on avg... Expects handling volume this yr to be at least 21M TEU... Exceeding HK if possibleOriginally posted by sbst275:Heard they got 3 mth bonus or sort... For last yr's record volume
Jurong Port is actually the unsung hero as well -
Looks like peak season is in again, dun forget, around this time last yr, berthing delays at PSA SG Terminal...

Hehe.... If HK handles less than 1.90M TEU, PSA No 1 for Q2 again.. I see the stat for HK to be out today

HK and SGP seems very fierce competitors.. these 2 always trying to overtake each other

Well, but bth ports are handling dif type of cargoes... PSA handles 85% transhipment, Jurong port 75% transhipment while HK are mainly 'domestic' cargoOriginally posted by 105090:HK and SGP seems very fierce competitors.. these 2 always trying to overtake each other
Anyway, PSA's overseas terminal grew by 33% all thks to accquisation of HK's HIT and COSCO-HIT stake -
