SG port congestion eases, northern Asia delays persist

Carriers are rerouting to alternative ports in Malaysia, India, and Sri Lanka.

The port congestion in Singapore and other Southeast Asia port hubs has improved, but still face delays, according to logistics firm C.H. Robinson.

Major transshipment ports in Asia— including Busan, Shanghai, and Singapore— are facing delays of 14-21 days. This is compounded by carriers omitting port calls to stay on schedule, C.H. Robinsons warned.

In response, carriers are rerouting transshipment hubs to alternative ports in Malaysia, India, and Sri Lanka, causing congestion at these locations as well. Additionally, Typhoons Yagi and Bebinca have exacerbated delays in China and Vietnam.

On the flip side, MSC has reinstated its Liberty service from the USEC to Asia, directly connecting Philadelphia to Asia.

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.
