Jurong is to expand its activities in Indonesia, Vietnam and China. At the same time, given a 54% increase in traffic in the first two quarters of 2005 to 444,000TEUs, plans are also being hatched to expand facilities at its home base. Five new quayside gantry cranes are to be acquired, of which four will replace existing equipment. Another container berth will also be expanded while the conventional berth is to be upgraded. Last year Jurong handed 711,000TEUs as well as 9.6m tons of bulk and general cargo.
