Mega port strategy in the dock

MALAYSIA is entering an era of mega port announcements. In recent months, proposals such as the RM144bil Maharani Freeport in Johor and the RM72bil Lumut Maritime Industrial City (LuMIC) have dominated headlines.

Additionally, a third port – the RM28bil Carey Island Port – has been proposed. This suggests that the nation may be on the brink of a significant port expansion wave.
