The Green Port Award System program is an evaluation system for ports in the APEC region. It is developed by APSN with the endorsement of the APEC Forum. It recognizes the high caliber and excellent environmental actions and leadership demonstrated by ports in the Asia-Pacific region. The award is valid for three years.

“Our work as a port operator demands that we maintain efficient operations all the time while contributing to continued sustainability of resources and decreasing adverse impact on the environment,” ICTSI executive vice president and chief sustainability officer Christian Gonzalez said. “We thank the APSN, with the support of our regulator, the Philippine Ports Authority, for recognizing our efforts in championing environmentally sustainable port activities at the Manila International Container Terminal,” he said.

MICT outlined its green strategy of integrating climate change management into its day-to-day operations, with the goal of becoming the most sustainable terminal in the Philippines. Aligned with the commitment to operate in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner, MICT has implemented several environmental programs and activities, including improving waste and water management, circular economy initiatives, ecological protection and biodiversity programs and decarbonation efforts.
