In an extension of an existing service the new RCL Haiphong Yangon service will call Singapore – Pasir Gudang – Haiphong – Qingzhou – Hong Kong – Singapore – Yangon – Pasir Gudang – Singapore.
There will be four 1,000 teu vessels deployed on the service with RCL providing three vessels and Yang Ming one.
“This is the first service in the market connecting South China and Haiphong with Yangon,” said Sumate Tanthuwanit, president of RCL.
“Myanmar’s imports have grown by 20 to 30% year on year in the past five years and imports from South PRC has ranked amongst the largest as well. With political stability in Myanmar, Myanmar’s growth potential will be even greater.”
The service will call at Myanmar International Port in Yangon, with the first service starting on 6 March from Qingzhou.
