Most port authorities are state run agencies. They build the infrastructure then lease the space to terminal operators like P&O Ports, DPW and APM. Those operators in turn bid on providing services to the steamship lines. I spent about 15 minutes on the phone the other day with a friend at the Tampa Port Authority getting educated on this.

Both of your posts prove the whole argument that "nothing will change because P&O already controls the ports"...Blah Blah...Are nothing but misleading and inacurate information. So those who are supposably giving us the facts are in fact decieving us. I also gathered from FOX that not all the ports in question here can be treated the same as to who is there and how they are run.
