The UAE terminal operator Gulftainer will enter
in the Thai market thanks to the acquisition of a
participation in the Suksawat Terminal on the Chao Phraya River,
in Bangkok, which is owned by the Thai Group
Siamgas and Petrochemicals Public Co. The Chief Executive Officer
of the Middle Eastern company, Farid Belbouab, specified that
Gulftainer enters "the Thai market with a perspective
in the long term. We see - he added - significant opportunities
both here and in the rest of Southeast Asia, and Suksawat represents
A fundamental first step in this path".
