Currently, the biggest difficulty of Cua Lo Port, besides competing with Nghi Son Port (Thanh Hoa) and Vung Ang Port (Ha Tinh), is that fishermen's fishing boats often occupy the wharf as a mooring place, hindering the exploitation of the wharf, maritime safety and security and order at the port. In addition, the water in front of the wharf is often silted, causing costly annual maintenance and repair costs.

International container transshipment fromCua Lo portTransporting via Hai Phong port is very difficult, because transporting via Hai Phong takes a lot of time, costs for lifting, transporting shells, transferring ports...
