Chattogram Bureau :
Chattogram Port Chairman Rear Admiral Zulfiqar Aziz said that the Port is ready for transshipment with India.
He said this in response to a question at a press conference at the Bandar Bhaban on Tuesday.
He said the Chittagong port has a lot of capacity. If the ships of trans-shipment arrive, we can handle these ships. The priority berthing will depend on the type of agreement of the two governments. Chittagong port will conduct two trials in January with the Kolkata port, to see the advantages and disadvantages.
However, regular transshipment will depend on when the traders are able to provide the cargo. In this case, Chittagong port will collect the tariff fixed by the government. It is not possible to say now how much product will be transported.
In response to a question, he said the responsibility of the port is to handle the ship when it arrives with goods.
The product of the transshipment will be at a specific yard or terminal.
