Maritime transport plays a crucial role in driving regional development and connectivity by facilitating trade and commerce between different countries and regions. Ports serve as vital hubs for economic activities, attracting investments, generating employment, and stimulating economic growth in their surrounding areas. Improved maritime infrastructure and logistics capabilities enhance a region’s competitiveness in the global market, fostering trade partnerships and fostering socio-economic development. Furthermore, maritime transport enables access to remote and landlocked regions, opening up new markets and opportunities for trade and investment, thereby contributing to inclusive and sustainable development.
