Visitors from Japan at the Port of Gdansk08.10.2003  On October 3, this year the Port of Gdansk Authority SA were hosting a group of nineteen representatives of the Japanese Ports and Harbours Association. The Port of Gdansk is one of the ports that had been included in the itinerary of their European tour. This is a second visit paid by the JPHA representatives over the last two years.
 The delegates were headed by the Town Mayor of Komatsushima, Mr. Nishikawa Masayoshi, whereas playing host to the meeting on behalf of the Port of Gdansk Authority SA was Vice-President of the Board, Mr. Zbigniew Perlinski.
 After a presentation had been made by the Commercial Office and Development Office showing the current conditions and development plans, the guests took the opportunity to view the port panorama, which usually makes particular impression, from the observation gondola on the tower of the Harbour's Master Office in the Northern Port. The Japanese delegates showed interest in our participation in servicing the container market, as well as the connected plans, including those of constructing a terminal by the company of DCT Gdansk SA in the Northern Port. The visit of Japanese visitors concluded with a short bus sightseeing tour around the port area.
 Despite the fact that the visit was meant as a preliminary reconnoiter, thrifty notes that had been taken, comments that had been made, as well as questions that had been asked by the visitors, notably while discussing the strategy adopted by the Port of Gdansk Authority SA and concerning Trans-European Corridor no. 6, gave evidence to the delegates' extensive interest in the Port of Gdansk.
