Expansion of Container Terminal CT10-CT17 and Its Associated Works in Pulau Indah, Selangor Darul Ehsan Social Impact Assessment CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 GROWTH PERSPECTIVE OF PORT KLANG Port Klang is Malaysia’s principal gateway and busiest port offering facilities and services to handle a wide variety of cargoes ranging from containers to break bulk cargoes as well as capacity to handle liquid and dry bulk cargoes of all types and shipment sizes. It is strategically located on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia at the northern end of the Straits of Malacca, one of the world’s busiest trade routes with vast amount of containerised cargo movement going east-west and north-south (Figure 1.1). Due to its strategic location, Port Klang handles more than 50% of all Malaysian seaborne traffic. Port Klang is made up of three ports, namely, Northport, Southport and Westports (Figure 1.2). Collectively, these three ports play an important role in the development of the Malaysian economy and in its global outreach in the country’s burgeoning international trade. The Port Klang Authority indicated that Port Klang handled 12.3 million TEUs of containerised cargo in 2018, of which about 61.4% comprised transhipment boxes, 19.4% were import and 19.2% were export cargo (Port Klang Authority Annual Report 2018). Container volume is measured in twenty-foot equivalent units or TEUs where a TEU represents the volume of a standard 20 feet long intermodal container. In 2018, Port Klang was ranked 12th amongst the top 20 container ports in the world and the second busiest port in Southeast Asia. Container ships have been getting bigger over the years for operational efficiency. To remain competitive and maintain its position as a mega hub port as well as address the rising competition among the regional ports within Southeast Asia, Port Klang facilities and services must expand to accommodate these Ultra Large Container Vessels. In 2000, Northport and Southport merged into one entity. Subsequently called Northport (M) Bhd, the port terminal, however, is unable to expand its terminal facilities further to cater to the trend of increasing vessel sizes due to a number of factors: first, constraints in land area as the area surrounding it is fully developed with port terminals, storage yards, warehouses and other ancillary support buildings; and second, inadequate turning basin and limited channel depth and width along the Northern Channel of Selat Klang. The Northern Channel has a depth of 11.2m and a width of 300m. Container vessels that are longer than 300m in length face difficulties in berthing as the water channel in front of the berths are inadequate for turning. Further, only container vessels that have a draft depth of less than 11m are able to use the Northern Channel safely. Ships with draft of more than 11m are required to use the Southern Channel, resulting in longer navigation time and distance for large vessels. Given the space constraints faced on land and on the water channel, it would be difficult for Northport to expand further to take on larger vessels and increasing vessel volumes in the future. SMHB/Westports SIA/April 2020_R00 Page 1 Westports Phase II Development Proposed Expansion of Container Terminal CT10-CT17 and Its Associated Works in Pulau Indah, Selangor Darul Ehsan Social Impact Assessment Figure 1.1: Shipping Channel along the Straits of Melaka Source: https://www.sea-seek.com/Port-Klang-Kelang-Selangor-Malaysia (accessed 02 March2020) Westports in Pulau Indah, on the other hand, has the advantage of being surrounded by land that is still undeveloped, albeit zoned for port expansion and industrial development. It is accessed through the Southern Channel of Selat Klang, a water body with a water depth of 15 to 17.5, and a turning basin of 500m that allows ships of more than 400m length to turn easily and navigate safely. Data from the Port Klang Authority indicate that in 2018, Westports handled 18% of all containers passing through the Straits of Malacca and accounted for 77.4% share of the container volume in Port Klang. With respect to container throughput, Westports handled 9.53 million TEUs in 2018, in contrast to 2.78 million TEUs handled by Northport over the same period. The bulk of the container volume is contributed by transshipment containers (67%) and to a smaller degree by gateway containers (33%). Transshipment is the shipment of goods or containers to an intermediate destination, then to another destination, while gateway means handling the import and export of the container business.

  • Budget 2015: a Balancing
    26 October 2015 Budget 2016: The right focus We believe Budget 2016 has the right focus in balancing economic Malaysia Strategy growth and maintaining fiscal discipline. We expect decent GDP expansion in 2016 that we believe would be conducive to earnings growth. We forecast an overall fully-diluted EPS contraction of 2.4% yoy in 2015 before rebounding to 7.4% yoy growth in 2016. KLCI The macro environment 1,710 @ 23 October 2015 For 2015, the federal government still believes that GDP growth between 4.5% and 5.5% is achievable. The current account is expected to remain in NEUTRAL (maintain) the surplus range of 1.5-2.5% of GNI, while inflation is anticipated to be 2- 2.5%. For 2016, GDP growth is expected to moderate to 4-5%, current account surplus at 0.5-1.5%, and inflation at a wider range of 2-3%. 2015 KLCI Target: 1,600 Domestic demand to drive GDP growth We forecast 5% GDP growth in 2015 and 5% in 2016. At first glance, the 4- Narrowing government fiscal deficit 5% range in 2016 looks unexciting. However, closer examination reveals that the government is expecting resilient domestic demand but with a bigger drag from the external environment. It sees domestic demand rising 5.9% this year and 5.5% in 2016 versus our 6% and 5.8% forecasts, respectively. Instilling fiscal discipline The government has made clear its intention on fiscal discipline. In 2015, it expects to hit the 3.2% fiscal deficit target, or RM37bn. Development expenditure is on track at RM47.4bn from its original allocation of RM48.5bn.

The paper presents the analysis of 8-year period trend (2010-2017) marine water quality index and the other marine water quality parameters fluctuations in the Klang estuary, which is have the famous Port Klang, the one of the largest and busiest ports in peninsular Malaysia. The 2010–2017 data employed in this study entailed 12 marine water quality parameters. In order to investigate the trend analysis, the nonparametric Mann-Kendall statistical test has been used. The result shows the upward trends for MWQI, Salinity, COND, TEMP, DO and O&G and downward trends for pH, TUR, TSS, coliform, PO4, NH3N and NO3. in 8-year period in Klang estuary. The results indicated Klang Estuary has experienced a mild pollution trend due to anthropogenic influence from domestic activities in the vicinity of the estuary.

Currently, the Group's smelting facility in Butterworth operates one of the lowest cost smelting plants in the world, converting primary, secondary and often complex tin bearing ores into high purity tin metal for industrial application. The plant has a production capacity of approximately 40,000 tonnes of a refined tin a year which is produced by using reverberatory furnace technology. However, with the rapid development and changes of land use in the surrounding area of current MSC facility in Butterworth, there is a need for MSC to find a suitable new site and set up new facility to relocate the existing operation in Butterworth. In 2016, MSC through its subsidiary M Smelt (C) Sdn. Bhd., acquired three parcels of industrial land, plant and machinery inclusive of a production facility in Pulau Indah, Klang.
