We saw robust growth across Asia and Africa driven by Pusan (South Korea), Qingdao (China), Manila (Philippines) and Jeddah (Saudi Arabia). In Europe we saw continued ramp-up in London Gateway (UK) and Yarimca (Turkey) while Prince Rupert (Canada) and Callao (Peru) continued to deliver strong growth,\u201d he was quoted as saying.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are seeing positive signs of progress in our new businesses that give us encouragement for the future.
