Ports serve as major hubs where goods and people converge. Here trade routes become lifelines of economic growth, fostering cultural exchange and cooperation. In today’s interconnected world, water transport remains indispensable for sustaining economies and enabling global connectivity.
It involves the movement of goods and people through rivers, lakes, seas, and oceans, using ships, boats, ferries, and other watercraft. Compared to other modes of transport, it is often more economical for carrying heavy or bulk cargo over long distances.
