From January to November 2023, the port managed over 7 million tons of containerised cargoes, registering an 11 per cent increase year-on-year.
“The PAS is a major international gateway for Cambodia’s trade exchanges with countries in the region and the world. We aim at transforming this feeder port into a regional logistics hub in 2029,” said Cambodian media reports quoting prime minister Hun Manet.
Manet highlighted the port's current capacity to handle 800,000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) annually. Looking ahead, he revealed ambitious plans to expand this capacity to 2.5 million TEUs per year by 2029.
