Given the unexpected circumstances, they stressed the
importance of closely monitoring all issues faced by importers and exporters
regarding the flow of cargo containers to and from the
Port of Aqaba. In
addition, finding suitable alternatives to mitigate the repercussions of the
successive events in the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait is crucial.
Additionally, the establishment of a national carrier and
fostering cooperation among relevant public entities are essential steps to
ensure timely and cost-effective goods delivery.
The participants stressed the importance of coordinating
national efforts across multiple government organizations and the commercial
sector to tackle maritime shipping barriers. This is especially true for the
commercial sector and importers; as smooth import operations are critical for
the Kingdom.
Importers and exporters who are experiencing problems with
container arrivals at the Port of Aqaba are invited to provide container
numbers and cargo details for efficient tracking and resolution.
The operations room can be reached at 0799453007 and
