The Kure was coming to receive
a load of 40,000 tonnes of wood chips from the
Vietnam-Japan
Paper Joint Venture Company to transport
to Japan. The Kure left
Vung Ang Port
on February 15.
Besides such specialized ships as the Kure, Vung Ang
Port is able to accommodate cargo ships of other types
and sizes, such as bulk-cargo and dry-goods ships
of up to 30,000dwt. officials said the Kure's visit
marked a step forward in the development of the poor
province's maritime economy.
