Indefinite strike halts cargo movement at Ctg Port

Workers and employees at Chittagong Port are continuing their strike in protest against the government's initiative to lease the New Mooring Container Terminal (NCT) to a foreign company, reports bdnews24.com.
No work was under way on Wednesday as workers stayed away from duties at various jetties for a fifth consecutive day, bringing all operational activities to a halt.
There was no movement of goods or containers at the port, including the normal cargo berth and container jetty. Ship movement from the outer anchorage was also suspended.
Protesters said a "dead silence" had descended on the port's jetties.
