Qingdao undergoes major port expansion

Qingdao Port, the seventh-largest port in the world, is gearing up to make itself the international freight center of Northeast Asia, constructing a series of new docks and developing a newly approved bonded area. “Actually, we are building another Qingdao Port,” said Tian Guangwen, vice president of Qingdao Port (Group) Co Ltd, referring to the new construction project in Dongjiakou, south of the port’s 117-year-old base in Kiaochow Bay.
