How long can Chittagong Port stay active?

Top port officials now have information on when to send containers to the container. Because there is practically no place to store imported cargo containers. As a result, if the container is released from the port facility, the container will be dropped from the ship. It will be possible to continue the port activities for a few more days. How long will this last is the biggest question now.

Last month, the Chittagong port accounted for about 12 percent of the country’s total imports and 8 percent of exports. Right now, the coroner’s raw material for drugs and medicines is coming through this port. As a result, the port is vital to keeping the country’s food supply available and the raw materials and equipment to sustain life.

The operation of the port can now be explained with some indicators. Last year, an average of 8,000 individual containers were dropped from the ship every day. Over the past week, it has dropped to 3,000 units in a single day. Last year, an average of 3,000 individual containers were released from the port each year, there are now 1,900 individual containers. It took an average of two and a half days to lift the container off a ship. It takes four to five days now. The reason it takes longer is because the jetty does not have a container space. The number of ships waiting at sea to board the plane has increased to 20. Currently, more than 3-5% of the port’s normal capacity cannot be operated.

The only solution to these problems at the port is to increase the number of importers to obtain containerized goods from the port facilities. The outgoing port president, Rear Admiral Zulfiqar Aziz, told First Light that if 2,500 containers were released during the day, it would be easier to continue port operations.

The reason for this is that if the container is unloaded, the container will have to be replaced by a new container. Containers could also be quickly thrown from the ship. In turn, the number of boats waiting in the peripheral areas was also reduced. The reason importers are not increasing the rate of container unloading is because they say there are transportation and labor crises during normal vacations. They also say where the raw material will be kept because the factory is closed. Merchants do not have to pay any rent to keep them in port, even if they are not exchanged. With the approval of the Ministry of Maritime Transport, the port authorities have renounced the rental of imported containers during the holidays. This facility is now a boomerang for the port.

Chittagong House Speaker Mahbubul Alam told the first light on the matter that all activities have been limited due to measures taken to combat the risk of the coroner. Due to various restrictions during normal holidays, merchants are unable to unload the container. I urge merchants to come forward to free the container even after the crisis. Because the port must be fully operational to keep the supply of imported food and emergency products safe. If necessary, the complexity of the imported goods release procedure should be relaxed.

Although the product download rate is not high for merchants, there is another way. In other words, the private container warehouse still has space for 25,000 containers. To carry the container product from the port to the warehouse, the approval of the revenue board will be required. Those types of container products can now be shipped from port to warehouse. However, this number can be temporarily increased. Even then, the container will be made to release from the port.

It is also difficult to carry out the normal activities of the port during the Crown. Due to the importance of avoiding coronary risk, the port has to give importance. Again, half a dozen government and private organizations and institutions operate on a limited basis to keep the port operational. The port, which does not pass over the port, has been seen again during this Corona crisis. As it is now, it is not possible to continue port operations for long. In this situation, the department commissioner’s office called a meeting Tuesday to order the shipping ministry to speed up port activities. The meeting will take place in the circuit house with the users of the port in the morning.

When asked about this, the newly appointed port president, Rear Admiral SM Abul Kalam Azad, told First Light that users should also show up to maintain normal port operations. Increase the amount of goods released. He said the problems are now being identified at the port.
