PIL Story
Y C Chang, also known by the name of Teo Woon Tiong in the business circle in Singapore and China, started his career in shipping when his family left Fujian in China just after the start of the Sino-Japanese War of 1937. Chang joined his businessman father in Singapore but was shortly sent to Malacca - the centre of trade then - to help his uncle to oversee a business shipping commodities between Sumatra and Malacca.
The business was running smoothly until the outbreak of the Second World War. After the War, Chang started a trading business dealing with Indonesia and Australia. But this business soon failed. He then joined his friend and encouraged the trading company to venture into ship-owning. Soon, he was made the General Manager of the new shipping company, a post he held for 18 years.
Then, in 1967, Chang together with some friends founded PIL - it was in response to a call by the government of Singapore then for more local marine-based companies. The rest as they say is history.
"When we formed PIL, people were watching me, especially competitors. But I'm always optimistic. I believe that if I work hard I can survive. If you do nothing wrong, you don't worry. Anywhere you can go." Said Chang.
Today, Chang is the Executive Chairman of PIL Group of companies, whilst his son, Teo Siong Seng is the Managing Director.
Teo was brought up in an environment where buying and selling ships is a topic for conversation during family meal times, Teo has ships and shipping in his 'blood'.
Teo leads a dedicated team of professional managers. PIL Group with a turn-over of more than S$ 2 billion in 2004, employs more than 1,970 staff of which 720 are employed in the Singapore/overseas offices, and another 1,250 are employed on its vessels. Its vessels provide regular, reliable container services from the Far East to Middle East, Red Sea/Gulf, Africa, India sub-continent, South East Asia and the Australasia. It has also diversified into logistics related activities such as supply chain management, consolidation/distribution facilities, warehousing, container depot operations, trucking as well as having interest in ship-agencies worldwide, container manufacturing, marine engineering and real estate. The various awards bestowed upon the organisation and the expansion of its group of businesses is testimony of PIL today.
新加坡太平船务和我国特别是我国交通部的关系十分之不一般。开放前，许多中国的船运不了的东西或到不了的的地方，都是通过交通部找到太平，由太平来做。所以开放之后太平是第一个拿到国内经营资质的资班轮公司。太平集团的业务分为三个部分，也就是三个子公司，一是航运公司，二是造箱厂（造集装箱），三是物流公司。
早在1967年新加坡太平船务公司成立时, 他们就开始在中国发展业务，是最早进入中国市场的外国船运公司之一。那时中国的港口还未正式对外开放，但太平船务已有定期的客轮及货轮挂靠中国各港口，从中国运输货物至东南亚、中东及东非等港口。新加坡太平船务有限公司创始人、现任公司董事主席叫张允中,不论局势如何变化，太平船务在中国的业务从未间断。
在与中国保持了近30年的商贸往来之后，1995年，太平船务在北京正式注册成立了第一家独资公司——太平船务（中国）有限公司。在随后的近10年里，太平船务（中国）陆续设立了上海、天津、青岛、大连、厦门、宁波、广州、深圳和南京9家分公司，以及杭州、福州、石家庄、郑州、温州、西安、烟台、顺德、武汉、汕头、义乌、重庆和南沙13个代表处。太平船务（中国）的分公司及代表处共拥有中国、港澳台及外籍雇员超过400名。2001年，太平船务在上海注册成立了第二家独资公司——太平集运服务（中国）有限公司，从事仓储、分拨等物流相关业务。
PIL刚开张的时候，只是接一些散杂货为主，从83年才开始接集装箱运输。

理论派?不知道楼上是怎么得出这个结论的.每家船东都有自己的操作流程和特色,做一件事要经过很多部门合作,如果你总以为一句话就能搞定,当然是不可能了,由此得出服务不好的结论更是没有道理.
