PTP expansion may be affected by Forest City project

Port of Tanjung Pelepas will have problem adding berths in the future?

THE country’s biggest and the world’s 16th largest transhipment terminal, Port of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP), may face difficulties in increasing berths beyond its phase 3 expansion plan due to reclamation works from the ambitious Forest City project near Tanjung Kupang, according to a source familiar with matter.

PTP, a 70% subsidiary of MMC Corp Bhd, is located at the west of the Forest City project in Johor.
