In the future, cargo vessels from the two sides need not pass through a third country to transship freight, cutting shipping costs by nearly half and allowing more precise control over transportation times. With this change, Kaohsiung Harbor, which in recent years has seen slow growth in cargo tonnage, is expected to see an annual increase of 200,000 standard containers pass through it. P.K.
今後兩岸貨輪不用經由第三地轉運，省下將近一半的運輸成本，貨源時間的控制也將更精確；近年吞吐量成長極緩的高雄港，預估第一年就將多出二十萬個標準貨櫃轉運量。
