Port operations unaffected by container incident at Keppel Terminal: MPA

Fifteen empty containers at the terminal fell into the sea on 1 December.

The Maritime and Port Authority (MPA) said port operations at Keppel Terminal were unaffected after 15 containers fell from the wharf into the sea on 1 December during a squall.

"There are no reported injuries and no immediate impact to port operations," the MPA reported.

The agency said it has deployed two patrol crafts to monitor and cordon off the affected area to facilitate recovery work by PSA Corporation Ltd.

"MPA’s Port Operations Control Centre has restricted all vessel movements in the vicinity of Keppel Terminal until the containers are recovered," the agency added.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
