Yang Ming Marine Transport Corporation has recently announced the official launch of its new China-Singapore-Malaysia (CSM) route on April 3, 2026, aiming to further strengthen its intra-Asia service network, enhance direct shipping efficiency between South China and major Southeast Asian ports, and expand regional coverage capacity[3]. This strategic move aligns with the growing demand for regional trade and the continuous upgrading of Southeast Asia¡¯s manufacturing industry, marking Yang Ming¡¯s deeper commitment to the dynamic Southeast Asian market.
The CSM route will be operated by three 2,800 TEU-class container ships from Yang Ming Marine, offering fixed weekly sailings with a 21-day round-trip voyage. These vessels, similar to Yang Ming¡¯s existing 2800 TEU fleet, feature energy-saving designs, desulfurization towers, and smart ship certifications, ensuring environmental compliance and cost efficiency while maintaining reliable operation. The port rotation of the CSM route forms a closed-loop channel connecting three key regions: South China, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia, with the following sequence: Xiamen ¡ú Kaohsiung ¡ú Shekou ¡ú Singapore ¡ú Port Klang ¡ú Xiamen.
