Hai Phong is expected to complete berths at the Lach Huyen International Port, develop the Nam Do Son Port, and strive to establish the Northern Hai Phong Economic Zone by 2030.
This will be based on the integrated and synergistic utilisation of the strategic advantages of Gia Binh Airport, Lach Huyen Port, and connection road networks, to position Hai Phong as a regional-scale port city and reach a throughput target of 215 million tonnes, a domestic news agency reported.
In the southern region, following an administrative merger, Ho Chi Minh City possesses the country’s most extensive seaport system, with 99 berths, including offshore oil and gas ones.
This accounts for nearly one-third of Vietnam’s total number of berths and is 2.5 times higher than before the merger. By 2030, cargo throughput is targeted at around 253 million tonnes, of which container cargo is expected to reach 16.25-18.25 million TEUs.
