Indonesia’s ambitious plans for the new port of Tanjung Sauh seem not to regard Singapore's transhipment dominance. Singapore’s relentless cargo growth of 5.7% last year, up to 31.6 million TEU, indicates that it is still catering well to customers’ transshipment needs. The same applies to nearby Tanjung Pelepas. Although its traffic increased by only 2.1%, up to 7.7 million teu, this was preceded by 19.7% growth in 2011. Indonesia’s plans to build a competing container terminal in nearby Tanjung Sauh with a capacity of 4 million teu is surprising to say the least, therefore, but it does have some local cargo arguments on its side, observes the Drewry report.
