RCL launches new Thailand, South China, Philippines service October 22
THAILAND's Regional Container Lines (RCL) will soon launch a service linking south China, the southern Philippines and southern Thailand, the company announced.
The service known as RSS will call Songkhla, Hong Kong, Shenzhen-Shekou, Manila, and back to Songkhla with the first service inaugurated from Songkhla on October 22.
The 1,018-TEU Bani Bhum and the 818-TEU Yossa Bhum will be deployed on the service.
"RCL has been involved in the South China to Philippines trade for some years now and we think that now is the right time for us to deploy our own assets in this trade to serve the needs of both our COC (carrier owned containers) and SOC (shipper owned containers) customers," said RCL vice president Charlie Chu.
"The Philippines in the past several years has been among the best performers economically here in South East Asia. The extension of this loop to Songkhla will further serve the needs of our COC and SOC customers in south Thailand who are looking for a second sailing," he said.
