Reuters reports that Sudan’s transitional military council has suspended a contract with Philippine port operator International Container Terminal Services Inc (ICTSI ) pending its cancellation.

 Workers at Port Sudan’s southern container terminal went on strike in February to protest against a 20-year concession signed in January for an ICTSI subsidiary to operate, manage and develop the South Port Container Terminal at Port Sudan.
