International Container Terminal Services Inc. (ICTSI) continues to expand its flagship Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) with the ongoing development of Berth 8 to serve new- generation container ships.

ICTSI Executive Vice President Christian Gonzalez said, 'Berth 8 will be a game-changer for the city. It will take Manila's port capabilities to a whole new level with the ability to handle the larger capacity ships and the additional volume that comes with them.'
