The Chua Ve Container Terminal handled a total of more than 6.1 million tonnes of goods in 2011.

The Chairman of the Board of Members of the Haiphong port company, Duong Thanh Binh, said in the New Year, the port will boost its marketing activities, improve its efficiency and service quality, and streamline its operating models.

The port aims to handle 19 million tonnes of goods to fetch more than VND1.23 trillion in revenue, and continue modernizing itself in 2012, said Binh.

On the coming birthday of the Communist Party of Vietnam (February 3), the port will inaugurate its quay No 7.

Despite the global economic meltdown, the Haiphong port completed its 2011 production goals on December 13, earning a turnover of over VND1.2 trillion.
