Gov’t launches action plan for maritime and port sustainability

The plan will focus on four areas.

The government has introduced 10 strategies and 32 action measures to support the sustainable development of the local maritime and port industry.

The Action Plan on Maritime & Port Development Strategy will help enhance port competitiveness, strengthen high-value-added maritime services, promote the local maritime brand and groom talent, and support the Maritime & Port Board.

One of the key strategies is to develop Hong Kong as a green and smart port to achieve emission reduction targets. 

The government will also offer sax concessions to attract international maritime enterprises.

The government will carry out the measures in phases with the Maritime & Port Board.
