Attending the meeting were relevant departments and offices and more than 20 major shipping lines operating in HCM City. This year, CLP rejoices to see the handling of the one millionth TEU three months earlier than in 2005, which accounts for an essential grow of 37,49% over the same period of 2005.

After the settlement of Terminal 1, SNP longs for the launch of 02 more terminals at CLP namely “Terminal 1” and “Terminal 2” towards the end of this year
