3. A new Tug-boat has been ordered for old port.

4. A new Pilot Boat is coming for Berbera Port, which is equipped modern Comms.

By comparison, Kenya's Mombassa Port was handling 1.4 million TEU in 2019. And Djibouti's Doralleh Port was 1.2 million TEU.

For Berbera Port to leapfrog into the league of biggest ports in the region in such a short span of time, is nothing short of miracle.
