An environmental watchdog has alerted authorities to an illegal consignment of poisonous industrial waste heading for a Thai port.

The Port Authority of Thailand (PAT) has been tasked by Saksayam Chidchob, the country’s minister of transport, to undertake a feasibility study into setting up a national shipping line. The carrier would be established as an affiliate of PAT.

The region has huge potential, but ongoing infrastructure challenges and now political instability in Myanmar are weighing on those opportunities.

APM Terminals has signed an MOU to develop a private river terminal in Bangkok.

This month, Hutchison Ports Thailand announced that the three new super post-Panamax STS cranes at its Terminal D facility in Laem Chabang Port “are equipped with advanced remote control technology and will enable Terminal D to operate safely and more efficiently, which, in turn, enables the terminal to achieve higher levels of vessel and yard productivity”.

German power systems specialist Vahle is ready to deliver conductor bar and SMG (slotted microwave guide) systems for supplying power and data to support automated and remote control RTG cranes at HPH’s terminal in Laem Chabang, Thailand – enabling automated cranes to operate without fibre optic cable.
