Sarawak to take over running of Bintulu Port by July

KUCHING: Sarawak's takeover of Bintulu Port from the Federal Government is scheduled to be completed by July next year, says the state Deputy Infrastructure and Port Development Minister.

Datuk Majang Renggi said the state government was in the process of preparing the required legal provisions and other arrangements to assume control of the port in tandem with Putrajaya's due process to repeal the Bintulu Port Authority Act 1981.
