The headline doesn't fully jive with the text. Ports were shut down by a private company called "DP World Australia". DP World is an UAE based shipping company that apparently operates some Australian ports and handles 40% of country's shipping traffic? Obviously it's a major fish so the government basically has no choice and tries to help them sort out the attack.
