DaChan Bay Terminals received the maiden call of MSC's new SAMBAR service on November 14, reinforcing its role as a key China-Southeast Asia logistics hub, reported the press release.

The SAMBAR service is a standalone operation by MSC, offering direct links and fast transit times from China to Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. DaChan Bay Terminals serves as the final Chinese port of call, providing exporters with flexible logistics options.
