INTRODUCTION

PORT KLANG IS SITUATED ON THE WEST COAST OF PENINSULAR MALAYSIA, ABOUT 40 KM FROM THE CAPITAL CITY, KUALA LUMPUR. ITS PROXIMITY TO THE GREATER KLANG VALLEY - THE COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL HUB OF THE COUNTRY AS WELL AS THE COUNTRY'S MOST POPULOUS REGION ENSURES THAT THE PORT PLAYS A PIVOTAL ROLE IN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRY. BASED ON A GOVERNMENT DIRECTIVE IN 1993, PORT KLANG IS CURRENTLY BEING DEVELOPED AS THE NATIONAL LOAD CENTRE AND EVENTUALLY A HUB FOR THE REGION.

WITH A NUMBER OF LOAD CENTRING AND HUBBING STRATEGIES PURSUED SINCE 1993, THE FACILITIES AND SERVICES IN PORT KLANG ARE NOW SYNONYMOUS TO THOSE OF WORLD CLASS PORTS. THE PORT HAS TRADE CONNECTIONS WITH OVER 120 COUNTRIES AND DEALINGS WITH MORE THAN 500 PORTS AROUND THE WORLD. ITS IDEAL GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION MAKES IT THE FIRST PORT OF CALL FOR SHIPS ON THE EASTBOUND LEG AND THE LAST PORT OF CALL ON THE WESTBOUND LEG OF THE FAR EAST-EUROPE TRADE ROUTE.
