Da Nang Party Secretary Delegation from Vietnam Benchmarks 'Busan Port Operation Innovation' Know-how

Busan Port, a Model Case for Developing Countries Like Vietnam

Continuous Visits to Learn Port Operations and Excellent Infrastructure

Busan Port Authority (BPA, President Kang Junseok) announced on the 12th that a delegation of high-ranking officials, including Nguyen Van Quang, Party Secretary of Da Nang City, Vietnam, visited the authority.

The Da Nang City Party Secretary and his delegation visited BPA to benchmark the advanced operational practices of Busan Port and to gain advice and know-how for the new port currently under construction in Da Nang City.

A delegation including the Party Secretary of Da Nang, Vietnam, is benchmarking the operational innovations of Busan Port.

They inquired about the current status and mid- to long-term expansion plans of Busan Port, the status of regular container shipping routes, and strategies for revitalizing the hinterland complex, showing particular interest in innovative operational methods such as the fully automated terminal recently opened at the New Port.

Da Nang City is pursuing a strategy to grow as a logistics hub by leveraging its geographical advantage where major land transport routes connecting several Southeast Asian countries intersect with Vietnam's north-south National Highway No. 1.

Busan Port is regarded as a model case for port development in developing countries and serves as a benchmark for many developing countries, including Vietnam.

In 2014, the Prime Minister of Vietnam and a delegation visited Busan New Port to benchmark its operations, and the following year, a training group consisting of senior Vietnamese government officials and executives from state-owned enterprises inspected Busan Port's infrastructure and acquired operational know-how.

Lee Eunghyuk, Director of International Logistics Support at BPA, stated, "We will continue to promote ongoing exchanges and cooperation so that Busan Port's experience and know-how can provide practical assistance to Da Nang City's port development."
