PUTRAJAYA: Containers arriving at Port Klang will be cleared within three days beginning May 1 in a new standard operating procedure that will further boost the port’s efficiency in cargo handling, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The Transport Minister said a pilot project was carried out earlier this year and the ministry believes this is a good system that could reduce time taken for the clearing process.
