KUALA LUMPUR: Port Klang handled a record-breaking container volume of 13.74 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) last year, says Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

He said it was a stellar performance despite the many challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic as well as the spillover effects of container shortages, port congestion and the floods recently.
