As the anchor of our nation, MPA has been a symbol of stability for the maritime industry and economy through waves of changes in the last 25 years.

The organisation is steadfastly driving the growth of one of the busiest ports in the world. As a global port of call, Singapore has links to more than 600 ports in over 120 countries. MPA will continue to lead its evolution.

The country's premier International Maritime Centre complements the port, by providing ancillary services like shipping finance and maritime insurance and attracting the industry's top players.

Promoting and developing Singapore as a global port of call and an International Maritime Centre - this is part of MPA's vision to be a leading maritime agency driving Singapore's global maritime aspirations.

Singapore's Lighthouses

Lighthouses are key to ensuring safety in port waters, which is especially important in Singapore, the world's busiest transshipment hub. There are seven lighthouses that have played a pivotal part in anchoring the Republic's maritime success since its time as a British colony — each with its own story to tell. Learn more about them here.
