Singapore maritime authorities have increased concessions to struggling containership operators with an extra 10% concession on port dues.

The additional concession will be in place for one year, and will be granted to container vessels calling at Singapore if they are carrying out cargo works with a port stay of less than five days.

They will be on top of the existing port dues concessions, such as the Green Port Programme incentives and the 20% concession introduced in 1996.
