PANJANG BANDAR LAMPUNG (ISL News) – Today, Tuesday, October 29, 2024, PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Regional 2 Panjang in synergy with its subsidiaries, held a welcoming ceremony for the MV Maersk Nassjo ship at pier 100 PJG, Regional 2 Panjang Port Container Terminal, attended by the General Manager of Pelindo Regional 2 Panjang represented by DGm Commercial Miftah Fajrisal accompanied by the Area Manager of PT IPC TPK Area Panjang Anang Subagyono and General Manager of Area III PT JAI Lutfi Amin.
The welcoming ceremony for the Liberian-flagged MV Maersk Nassjo, captained by Bulgarian Captain Nikolaev Todor Kolev with a Gross Tonnage of 25,514 and a ship length of 171.9 M, departed from Tanjung Priok Port and will take a route to Tanjung Pelepas Port, Malaysia. The ship is scheduled to unload 1,348 boxes of containers at Regional Port 2 Panjang.
IPC TPK Panjang Area Manager Anang Subagyono said that in order to gain trust from international shipping, especially the 'Giant' ship, it takes time to coordinate with various related elements, especially the shipping company as the Operator and Owner of the Ship. "Before coming here, they asked about the situation and conditions, as well as various supporting facilities of Panjang port. And after we gave them all the information, they were willing to come to Panjang.
General Manager of Pelindo Regional 2 Panjang represented by JM Commercial Miftah Fajrisal said that the scheduled entry of large ships into Panjang port is a form of trust from our service users towards the services we provide. "We want Panjang to be a back up for Tanjung Priok Port which is getting busier," This is because of the increase in a number of commodities whose shipments are carried out through Panjang port. Lampung Province's leading commodities, for example, are coffee, then canned pineapple, pulp, rubber and bananas whose export figures can reach hundreds of thousands of tons through containerization. Therefore, we hope that what has been achieved can be improved in the coming years. Of course, to be able to realize this, various innovations in terms of services, as well as development and addition of facilities will continue to be carried out in the future. "he concluded".
