Sorry to say, But the Only reason cars are unloaded there is it was a government order, because no ship would use a port, uncertified by Lloyds shipping agents!!!!

oh properly duped you are. Transshipment is a decision of shipping lines. You are talking about vehicles coming into the country and transshipment of vehicles is a complete different story.
