announce our latest enhancement of our Asia/Vietnam RORO services which have been
established and continued since 2012. In order to accommodate increased demand for
RORO transportation to Vietnam, we have enhanced the service quality for North
Vietnam port with high-frequency, fixed day and direct calling from all Asian ports.
We will keep offering a solid RORO service to Vietnam by utilizing our business
expertise and know-how which we have acquired thorough our long experience since
the service began.

- Service Frequency: 2sailings/Month
- Commencement Date: October 16, 2016 ETA Laem Chabang
- Enhanced points:
- Changed Northern Discharging port from Cai Lan to Haiphong
⇒Near : The port location being more than 60km closer to the capital city, Hanoi.
⇒Large: The total yard capacity will be ample to accept incoming CBU waves
expected in the future.
⇒Sure : Since Haiphong port newly set up a dedicated RORO terminal (Tan Vu)
for this new service and our vessels will have priority berthing privileges,
we believe we can bring safer and more reliable services.
- Additional frequency for Northern Vietnam (1 sailing ⇒ 2 sailings)
This will fulfill higher requirements from our esteemed customers.

In order to offer variety of options for our valuable customers who would be
