Sudan hopes for lasting partnership with China for Sudan’s Harbor
A Sudanese entrepreneur said that Sudan hopes to establish a long-standing partnership with China in developing its Port Sudan harbor, as the country’s economy is suffering from lack of major resources. “We have important and strategic partnerships with the Chinese companies which have greatly helped us to modernize Port Sudan harbour and increase its efficiency,” Jalal Eldin Shelia, General Manager of Sudan’s state Sea Ports Corporation, told Xinhua. He said that Chinese companies have contributed a lot such as deepening the cleats, increasing the number of docks, modernizing the delivery and shipment equipment and computerizing the procedures and customs clearances. “For over a quarter of a century we, in the Sea Ports Corporation, have cooperation with the Chinese government. Presently we are working on establishment of free harbors on the Red Sea coast with Chinese support as well as a free zone north of Suakin town, an area upon which the Sudanese economy greatly depends,” Shelia said. http://www.hellenicshippingnews.com/sudan-hopes-for-lasting-partnership-with-china-for-sudans-harbor/
