Kwai Tsing Container Terminals

It evolved from four berths of Kwai Chung Container Port (Chinese: 葵涌貨櫃碼頭) completed in the 1970s.

It has been the eighth-busiest container port in the world since 2019, just after Shanghai, Singapore, Ningbo-Zhoushan, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Busan and Qingdao.

The Container Committee was appointed by the Governor Sir David Trench on 12 July 1966 to advise the government on the containerisation revolution in cargo handling.

In early 1967 the committee declared that Hong Kong had to build the capacity to handle containers, otherwise the territory's economy would suffer and its port would be bypassed in favour of Singapore and Japan.
