’s logistics arm, Teleport, has signed a landmark memorandum of understanding (MoU) with China Central Longhao Airlines Co Ltd (Air Central China) to strengthen air cargo connectivity between China and Southeast Asia.
In a statement, Teleport said the signing took place at the Zhengzhou–Kuala Lumpur “Air Silk Road” Forum for International Cooperation in Sepang on Sept 18.
The forum is part of Malaysia’s broader vision to position Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) as a gateway for regional and global trade. The agreement supports this goal by enhancing trade and cargo flows along the fast-growing aerial corridor linking the two regions.
Building on the MoU, Teleport and Air Central China announced an interline agreement to enable faster, seamless cargo transfers between their networks, in response to rising demand for rapid and reliable freight services to support expanding cross-border trade.
Teleport chief executive officer (CEO) Pete Chareonwongsak said being selected as an interline partner by Air Central China underscored the confidence in Teleport’s network and operational expertise.
“Our strength lies in connecting airline networks to expand reach and efficiency beyond what any single carrier can achieve. By linking Air Central’s key hubs in China with Teleport’s extensive Southeast Asian and Asia-Pacific network, we’re providing direct, one-booking access from major Chinese hubs into the heart of Southeast Asia for more efficient trade.”
Meanwhile, Air Central China CEO Li Zhenliang said: “This meeting and the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding have laid the foundation for comprehensive cooperation between both parties.
“In the future, Teleport will become China Central Longhao Airlines’ most important partner in Southeast Asia, working together to open more air routes connecting China and Southeast Asia.”
The interline partnership links Air Central China’s routes from Xi’an, Hangzhou, Delhi, Hanoi and Osaka with Teleport’s network of over 290 cities in more than 80 countries across Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Oceania, enhancing cargo flows and supporting trade growth along Asia’s key corridors.
