Twenty one Not Six Ports Transferred to Dubai Company

Where will it all lead?

It seems that many people are under the impression that the Dubai ports deal includes six ports. Here is the count:

P&O Operated Ports in U.S

  1. Port of Portland (ME)
  2. Port of Boston (MS)
  3. Port of Davisville
  4. Port Newark Container Terminal
  5. Port Authority of NY & NJ
  6. Philadelphia Regional Port Authority
  7. Delaware River Port Authority of PA & NJ
  8. Port of Wilmington (DE)
  9. Maryland Port Administration
  10. Port of Virginia
  11. Port of Miami (FL)
  12. Mississippi State Port at Gulfport
  13. Port of New Orleans (LA)
  14. Greater Baton Rouge (LA)
  15. Port of Lake Charles (LA)
  16. Port of Beaumont (TX)
  17. Port of Port Arthur (TX)
  18. Port of Galveston (TX)
  19. Port of Houston (TX)
  20. Port of Freeport (TX)
  21. Port of Corpus Christi (TX)

The P&O website shows that these ports are part of the US holdings and the Beaumont and Corpus Christi ports list the US Army as a client. Woo hoo! Yippe skippy! Does the transfer include the ports that P&O provides stevedoring for? Once again I am soooo confused.
