On August 14, 2021, the Apia Port upgrade project in Samoa undertaken by China Harbor held a groundbreaking ceremony. Samoan Prime Minister Fiame Naomi, Church Minister Mori, Minister of Engineering, Transport and Infrastructure Olo, and Port Authority Director Suaro attended the ceremony and delivered speeches.
