Vehicles exporters of Japan and Thailand were mulling the idea to send vehicles to Hambantota harbour to re-export them to other countries, Harbour Project Minister Rohitha Abeygunawardena said.

The minister said that 547 re-exports have been completed by the Colombo Harbour in 2011 while 144,851 vehicles were re-exported from Hambantota Harbour up to now. (M.N.Piyaratne)
