Kuantan Port proudly celebrates a significant milestone as we welcome the first-ever cargo shipment from Tunas Manja Group—two containers of premium tissue products, directly imported from Qinzhou, China.

This landmark achievement, made possible through the Silk Route Initiative led by Beibu Gulf Holdings, marks the beginning of a new trade corridor between Malaysia and China. It strengthens economic ties and opens doors to new opportunities for business growth, logistics development, and global trade connectivity.

Arriving aboard the SITC Sunrise Dragon, this shipment reflects the success of the strong collaboration between Kuantan Port, Beibu Gulf Holdings, and Tunas Manja Group. Kuantan Port is confident that this partnership will drive greater trade flows, attract new investments, and foster long-term economic prosperity.

With progressive infrastructure development shaping the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, Kuantan Port stands as a pivotal gateway driving regional trade growth. Strategically positioned along international sea trade routes, its role is further amplified by the development of the Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park (MCKIP) and the transformative East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) megaproject.

This comprehensive development strategy not only streamlines logistics and enhances connectivity but also positions Kuantan Port as a cornerstone for economic prosperity in the region. As a game changer for Malaysia’s logistics landscape, it reinforces the nation’s standing in global trade networks.
