One of the world's largest cargo ships sailed into Mombasa on Monday, signalling that the port's expansion was paying off. Residents lined the Likoni ferry crossing to watch the massive MV MSC Portugal sail up the channel into Kilindini Harbour. According to Kenya Ports Authority (KPA), the safe navigation into the channel by the ship carrying 6,000 twenty-foot containers indicated the port had finally become a world-class facility. The vessel, with a length equivalent to three football fields, is the longest container ship to call at the port.
