SINGAPORE (Bernama): Malaysians will have the opportunity to catch the sight of Fu Ning, the world’s largest traditional Chinese wooden sailing boat, when it docks at Tanjung Bruas Port Jetty in Malaysia’s state Melaka beginning this May 1.
The vessel, measuring 41.6 metres (m) in length, 12 m wide and having a main mast height of 29 m, will berth at the port for about a week as part of the ship owner Lin Chang Jiu’s aspirations to honour the achievements of Admiral Cheng Ho and retrace his path along the Maritime Silk Road.
