Laem Chabang port director Yutthana Mokkhao said the vessel carried 776 containers from China. Of the total, 460 were to be unloaded at Laem Chabang Port and 316 were destined for Samut Prakan province and Ho Chi Minh City. Of the remaining containers, 13 contained altogether 325 tonnes of bleaching chemicals destined for the Unithai port in Samut Prakan, he said.
