Abstract

There is no independent third party international container terminal operator from Taiwan until the setup of the Taiwan International Ports Corporation Ltd. (TIPC) in 2012. However, many Taiwan ocean container carriers (such as Evergreen Marine Corp.(EMC) and Yang Ming Marine Transport Corp.(YML)) do own their terminal operating subsidiary companies (Taipei Port Container Terminal Corporation of EMC Group and Kao Ming Container Terminal Corp (KMCT) of YML).
