Educational Visit to Westport Malaysia Sdn Bhd

On 9th April 2007, Sunway CPA Student Charter (SCSC) organised a field trip to Westports Malaysia Sdn Bhd located in Pulau Indah, Port Klang, Malaysia. Port Klang has become a free commercial zone, handling 55 % of the container trade in Malaysia with three gateways of NorthPort, West Port and South Port (http://allmalaysia.info/msiacommerce). 39 Victoria University students together with Mr. Teoh Cheng San, Ms. Jamuna Moorthy and Ms. Lee Phaik , departed from Sunway University College at 9.03 am. Taking 45 minutes on road to Port Klang, the group was warmly welcomed to Westports Sdn Bhd.

In the 16th floor of the Pulau Indah office, Mr.Martin, a representative from Westports Malaysia Sdn. Bhd., gave a brief presentation about company’s profile and the port industry. Westports has proven itself in terms of efficiency and reliability with its cargo handeling capabilities. In its brief 13-years history, Westport has been voted among the top 10 ports in Asia. Its waterfront reliability, distinctive stevedoring capabilities and versatility in handling of cargo, has won it awards from near to far (www.westportsmalaysia.com).

After the 40 minutes presentation, the group was invited to have light refreshment prepared by the company in the 9th floor. At 11.15 am students were taken to the port side where they were able to see the cargo handling and cargo ships up close. At 11:45 the trip was ended and students were transferred back Sunway University College.
