City Mini

6 million! The number of large containers entering and leaving the port of Hong Kong each year. There is a small mini-city to the port of Hong Kong, which is home to the least 75,000 huge steel containers at one time.
Did you know that millions of products sold worldwide are manufactured in China? China is the place where 50% of Nike shoes. 85% of toys created by Hasbro, Mattel and Toys R Us "are manufactured in China. Most computers from Dell and Hewlett Packard manufactured in China. Radio Shack sells for three hundred different plants in mainland China. Many of these products go to destinations including North America, in Europe and Australia through the Port of Hong Kong, the busiest in Asia.

Boats returning to the city containing some raw materials for manufacturing. However, the main imports are waste paper and used equipment. Factories in China take the role of American North waste and recycle cardboard and paper boxes white printing. Workers in China also dismantle old computers to save gold and reusable parts. Labor costs in North America for these activities environmentally prohibitive. This is not the case in China. Labor costs are low why Hong Kong can run its container port economically.

The technicians who operate cranes and mechanical arms that load and unload containers off ships and earn about U.S. $ 20,000 annually. Workers who do the same work in container ports of America earned $ 200,000 per year. Interestingly, Hong Kong traders, who earn much lower wages, work twice as fast as their counterparts in the United States. Speed is the name of the game in the container port. Boat piles up, they can carry up to 8,000 containers. They can be downloaded in about ten hours, and new export containers can be loaded on ship in another ten. In twenty hours of their arrival in port a ship may be ready to sail again with a new load of containers. Scaffolding great job as cranes day and night, loading and unloading ships.

One reason ships can be loaded and unloaded so quickly is the developed complex software experts from Hong Kong to ensure that containers are stacked and stored in the port area in the manner most convenient. Developer to enter data about when a container will come when they will sit, how much it weighs, what it contains and where it goes. Using a color code 47, the team says the Dockers the best place for container to be stored. This technology Homegrown is now sold to other container ports in the world. Another reason the container port works so well is because of its sixty-system radio channel that keeps more than 3,000 employees logged on the site. The port never sleeps. The work does not go 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The port containers is a bit like a miniature city. Instead of flats there are many containers. Instead of trains and buses there are lots of trucks. 8000 trucks entering and out of the container port each day carrying imports and exports. The container port Hong Kong is a fascinating place and charged to visit.
