4th Vietnam Container Ports and
Logistics Conference

On behalf of the Viet Nam Maritime Administration (VINAMARINE), I would like to welcome you to the 4th Vietnam Container Ports and Logistics Conference 2010, scheduled for 13 – 15 October in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

This is a premier event offering international investors direct access to the port and logistics industry in Vietnam. Now in its 4th year, we are pleased to have the Ministry of Transport do a Ministerial Address at the event.

With more international speakers, a refreshed programme, and participation of top liners and port operators, attendees will get first hand information on infrastructure priorities, upcoming partnerships, and projects in the pipeline.

This conference is developed with the sole purpose of growing Vietnam’s ports and logistics industries. Do not miss this unique opportunity to be part of the debate, discussion and networking platforms.

I look forward to welcome you in Ho Chi Minh in October.

Regards

Vuong Dinh Lam, Chairman
Vietnam Maritime Administration

“Experts have pointed out that poor infrastructure has made logistics fees of Vietnamese businesses much higher than that of other countries. In the US, logistics expenses are equal to 9.5 percent of the GDP. The figure is 11 percent in Japan, 16 percent in South Korea, 21.6 percent in China, while it is very high in Vietnam, at 25 percent, or $17-18 billion per annum.”
