The new record broke the previous record which was set in 2013 when JICT topped 184 moves per hour when it handled the MV MOL Dawn.
JICT achieved growth in productivity due to continued increase in container volumes. “We are constantly striving to increase productivity and efficiency in every aspect of our operation,” said Albert Pang, President Director of JICT.
Having recognised by INSA as the biggest and most efficient container terminal in Indonesia, JICT also embarked on JOBPAYS (JICT Online Billing Payment System), an integrated payment system with related port institutions including Bank, Port Authority and Customs. According to JICT these improvements will greatly enhance competitiveness. “By giving the reliable service to our customers, Indonesia will be ready to compete with other world-class port in Asia,” Pang added.
JICT is a joint venture between Hutchison Port Holdings (HPH) and Indonesia Port Corporation. In 2013, JICT achieved an annual container throughput of 2.4 million TEU. This achievement allowed JICT to rank as one of the best container terminal among Asia container ports.
