On 3 March 2017, H.E. Mme. Yang Xiuping, Secretary-General of ASEAN-China Centre (ACC), visited Kuantan Port of Malaysia for better knowledge of the construction of infrastructure and the breakwater, and the expansion and international cooperation of the Port. Mr. Lu Yong, Executive Vice General Manager of Beibu Gulf Holding (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, accompanied the visit.

During her discussions with the management of the port, Ahmad Kamil Bin Shaharudin, General Manager of Kuantan Port Consortium Sdn Bhd, and Alimi Bin Ibrahim, Senior Manager of Kuantan Port Consortium, said that, since the Malaysian government approved the the establishment of the East Coast Economic Region Special Economic Zone in June 2016, Kuantan Port has been updating and renovating the existing port in line with relevant standards and requirements. The breakwater of the new port will jut out for 4.6 kilometres into the sea. On completion, this 1.1-billion-ringgit breakwater project will be one of the longest in South-East Asia. Also under construction is the New Deep Water Terminal that will be capable of berthing vessels up to 150,000 tons deadweight. This project that costs 1.6 billion ringgit includes dredging the existing waterways to 18 metres deep. It is expected to be completed in 2018. Kuantan Port has businesses with China, Australia, Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Viet Nam, etc. The management looks forward to expanding business in ASEAN countries and China by leveraging the platforms provided by ACC, and welcomes more Chinese enterprises for the discussions on relevant businesses.

Secretary-General Yang Xiuping commended the active role that Kuantan Port plays in promoting ASEANChina business ties. She noted that ASEAN and China are close neighbours with great complementarity, huge markets and enormous development potential. She hoped that Kuantan Port will enhance exchanges with foreign countries and increase mutually beneficial cooperation with China and ASEAN countries to help ensure the sustained and further development of ASEAN-China relations.

On 3 March 2017, H.E. Mme. Yang Xiuping, Secretary-General of ASEAN-China Centre (ACC), visited the Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park (MCKIP) to learn about the progress of the projects in MCKIP and exchanged views with the management of MCKIP. Mr. Lin Chuanyuan, General Manager of Alliance Steel (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, Mr. Hu Jiulin, Deputy Project Commander of Alliance Steel, and Mr. Lu Yong, Executive Vice General Manager of Beibu Gulf Holding (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, accompanied the visit.

In his briefing, Mr. Hu Jiulin noted that MCKIP, capitalizing on the favorable location of Kuantan Port, is the first national-level industrial park in Malaysia and is well on its way to become a flagship project featuring joint investment between Malaysia and China and a demonstration project of ASEAN-Chinacooperation. As the first project launched in MCKIP, Alliance Steel is scheduled to go into partial operation at the end of 2017, with an estimated annual output of 350 million tons and US$ 1.4 billion investment. Once fully operational, it is expected to hire up to 3,500 employees, which will create many good job opportunities for the Malaysian people. Alliance Steel attaches great importance to environmental protection in the construction: it adopts advanced energy-saving and green equipment, the technical data of which have passed the environmental impact assessment by the Malaysian authorities. Alliance Steel pays close attention to the well-being of its Malaysian and Chinese employees, abides by local laws, regulations and customs and earnestly fulfi lls its corporate social responsibility, which is widely acclaimed by the Malaysian government and people. The Alliance Steel project will boost the development of the East Coast Economic Region Special Economic Zone of Malaysia and lend a fresh impetus to the development of Malaysia-China and ASEAN-China trade and economic relations.

Secretary-General Yang Xiuping spoke highly of the progress in the development of MCKIP and Alliance Steel and the active role they have played in promoting Malaysia-China and ASEAN-China practical cooperation. She recognized the signifi cance of jointly building MCKIP and its relevant infrastructure by ASEAN and China which has effectively moved forward local economic and social development and benefi ted the peoples of both sides. She expected the Chinese enterprises to complete the construction and put the project into operation on time and in full for win-win outcomes. She urged the management to take precautions against incidents and ensure one hundred percent safety for the corporate and individuals. ACC will continue to act as a bridge to facilitate the “going global and bringing in” efforts by enterprises on both sides, so as to make new contributions to practical cooperation between ASEAN and China in relevant fi elds.
