The CSA's annual port of the year competition was
established to encourage and promote port development and efficient port
operations. It recognizes those ports that have sustained a high level of
efficiency while maintaining effective programmes for development of human
resources and systems.
The competition looks at a port's overall
efficiency and dependability and on measures implemented to achieve higher
levels of productivity, growth and development.
