Perlis Inland Port to bridge Malaysia-Thailand trade


KANGAR: The Perlis Inland Port (PIP) is expected to generate over 500 local jobs and boost economic growth in the northern corridor upon its operational launch, says Anthony Loke (pic).

“The PIP will create a more integrated ecosystem for industries in Perlis, Kedah, Penang and Perak. It will also be supported by railway access to the country’s major ports, including Port Klang and Penang Port,” the Transport Minister said during a press conference at the Integrated Business Centre, Chuping Valley Industrial Area, here yesterday.
