Emphasizing that the development and creation of commercial
ports is a very important and strategic step by the Ports and Maritime
Organization (PMO) on the shores of Makran, he added based on the conducted
studies, the best possible location determined for implementing the project is
in Jask, southern Hormozgan Province, Iran.
Rastad added that the project and construction of the
required parts will begin after four years to be inaugurated in 11 years.
"Due to the fact that container transport has the
biggest share in maritime trade in the world today, by the construction of this
port, our country will have closer access to the east-west world trade route
outside the Strait of Hormuz, which will be an advantage," he said.
