SHENZHEN OVERTAKES HONG KONG AS THIRD BUSIEST CONTAINER PORT FOR 2013

摘要

China's Shenzhen port bested Hong Kong to become the world's third-busiest container port for the first time last year, after a strike shifted ships away from the port in Hong Kong. Shanghai and Singapore remain the world's two biggest container ports. Shenzhen, in Guangdong province, handled 23.3 million TEUs last year, surpassing Hong Kong's 22.3 million over the same period, according to data from the Transport Commission of Shenzhen Municipality and the Hong Kong Port Development Council show.
