Xiamen port sees box volumes rise 10.7% in first nine months
Xiamen: The Port of Xiamen saw container volume rise 10.7% in the first nine months of the year to 5.1m teu, while overall cargo went up 7.4% to 126m tonnes.

Xiamen, a major port in Fujian province just across the straits from Taiwan, was part of a port of origin tax rebate pilot scheme. This gives rebates shippers who choose to export their cargo through ports that are part of this scheme and has apparently benefitted the port.
