Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways introduces ONOP initiative

The Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways (MoPSW) has introduced the “One Nation One Port Process” (ONOP) initiative to streamline and standardise port procedures and documentation across all major ports. This initiative involves a comprehensive review of existing processes for various cargo types, including containers, dry bulk and liquid bulk, as well as different movement categories such as export-import, transshipment and coastal operations. By reducing processing time for documentation, the ONOP aims to lower logistics costs and enhance efficiency in port operations.
