The development of digitalized shipping services, economic initiatives and Pilot Free Trade Zone will push Shanghai to the status of an international shipping center by 2020.
It will thus compete with other established rivals like Singapore and Tokyo in the Asia-Pacific region, said officials.
The central government in 2009 set a target of developing Shanghai as an international shipping center in 2020.
