Major logistics plans set to boost economy Liow: Projects vital in reducing business costs PETALING JAYA: Several large-scale infrastructure and logistics projects will be implemented as part of the Government’s logistics masterplan to promote trade and growth, said Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai. The projects, listed under the second phase of the masterplan, include the Pulau Carey portindustrial city project, East Coast Rail Link, Digital Free Trade Zone and 24-hour Customs facilitation at the borders. “This is critical because logistics support all sectors of the economy, facilitate trade, reduce costs of doing business and contribute to enhancing productivity and economic growth,” Liow said after chairing the task force meeting yesterday. Other plans include setting up a regional ecommerce and logistics hub at KLIA Aeropolis, as well as developing Sabah as the regional logistics hub for Asean. The Logistics and Trade Facilitation Masterplan, launched in 2015, is aimed at turning Malaysia into the preferred logistics gateway to Asia by 2020. Liow said two Cabinet ministers had joined the National Logistics Task Force (NLTF), an interministry task force responsible for the implementation of the masterplan. They are Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan and Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Johari Abdul Ghani. “I am confident that with the involvement of the two ministers representing key central agencies namely the Economic Planning Unit and the Finance Ministry – the NLTF will be further strengthened and become more robust in implementing the masterplan to improve the efficiency of the logistics industry,” said Liow. He added that other members in the task force included representatives from the International Trade and Industry Ministry, Human Resources Ministry, Works Ministry, and other government agencies and departments, as well as logistics industry players. Some 146,000 jobs, mostly in the highly skilled category, would be created with the successful implementation of the masterplan, Liow said. He said Malaysia’s cargo volume was also expected to grow 8% annually to 880 million tonnes by 2020. The contribution of the transport and storage subsector to the country’s GDP was projected to increase from 3.6% in 2013 to 4.3% in 2020. The task force would also implement three projects which were scheduled under phase one but were not completed last year due to resource constraints, Liow said. These included last-mile connectivity to Port Klang, addressing bottlenecks at the Padang Besar terminal in Perlis and developing u-Customs to provide a single window for goods clearance.

MCA No Match for Ram in Chinese-Majority Seat Malaysiakini.Com May 12, 2014
MCA no match for Ram in Chinese-majority seat MalaysiaKini.com May 12, 2014 YOURSAY 'Ong Tee Keat, even most winnable candidate in MCA will lose in Bukit Gelugor’ Tee Keat: Is MCA bereft of winnable candidates? Dont Just Talk: After MCA vice-president Chew Mei Fun lost big in the Kajang by-election, the party has totally lost its confidence in nominating a candidate for the Bukit Gelugor seat, giving such a silly excuse as focusing on the hudud issue. Who are you trying to fool, MCA president Liow Tiong Lai, the hudud issue is not something new and former MCA president Chua Soi Lek was right when he labeled Liow as a weak leader. MCA has a pool of strong leaders who are good at bragging in front of the news media especially MCA Youth chief Chong Sin Woon. Let him stand against Ramkapal Singh of DAP to test his popularity amongst the Chinese voters. Never in the history of Malaysian politics did we dream that BN under Umno Baru would give a walkover to Pakatan. Surely the tides of change and the cry for ‘Ubah’ is near. Malaysia Truly Asia: Former MCA president Ong Tee Keat has been knocked out twice by his members and party. Now from the outside he can talk big, but he knows the score just like everyone here. The late Karpal Singh was very well liked, Penang belongs to the 'Tokong', and Karpal’s son is a shoo-in to win. MCA has taken the wise move of not contesting and living to fight another day.
