Port Klang aims for 20 million TEUs


KUALA LUMPUR: Port Klang will have the capacity to handle almost 20 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) of containers by 2016, as both Northport Malaysia Bhd and Westports Malaysia Sdn Bhd are undergoing expansion plans.

Port Klang Authority chairman Datuk Dr Teh Kim Poo said the authority was also in the midst of obtaining relevant approvals to deepen the existing channels to 18 metres. “This would make Port Klang competitive and a preferred choice for our customers,” he said at a logistics forum and exhibition here yesterday.
