00:00In a symbolic way, let's use the flag of Westporch 2.
00:05One.
00:09Two.
00:12Ladies and gentlemen,
00:14Westporch 2 is not just a mining development project.
00:19It is an important step in ensuring that the future of Malaysia is guaranteed
00:23as a global maritime hub and logistics.
00:27With the development of 8 new terminal containers,
00:30from container 10 to container 17,
00:33we are ready to double the capacity of our container
00:38from 14 million TU to 28 million TU.
00:42The construction of these new terminal containers is important
00:45not only to meet the demands of the time,
00:49but also to prepare for growth in the number of trades
00:53that are expected to increase in the coming decade.
00:56Nine terminal containers in Westporch are now operating at 80% capacity
01:02and are expected to reach their maximum capacity in the coming years.
01:08This has pushed us to decide to increase the capacity of the terminal.
01:13Westporch 2 is also expected to generate RM55 billion
01:19to the Malaysian economy throughout the project
01:22based on a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers on December 12, 2022.
01:29Westporch 2 will create a new free zone with an area of 550 acres.
01:35This free zone area will attract more foreign trade
01:40and attract more global and international mining centers
01:44such as IKEA, Robert Bosch and Marks and Spencers.
01:49Westporch 2 will also be built with automation and digitalization
01:53where more high-performance jobs will be created for the Malaysian people.
01:59You have to remember, whether in Westporch Klang port
02:04or in other areas that I mentioned earlier,
02:09we are not moving separately in a vacuum.
02:14We are facing a dynamic network.
02:19The competition is great.
02:22If we are weak, if we think that small achievements are enough to make us proud,
02:29we will be left behind.
02:31We are dealing with a very competitive market,
02:35competitive group of nations
02:38and we cannot therefore expect to succeed and excel
02:43without affecting serious reforms
02:48and ease of doing business in a more efficient manner
02:53and more so to avoid leakages, endemic corruption and abuse of power.
03:00Jemaah Menteri wants this project to succeed.
03:03Jemaah Menteri and the government will provide all the support needed
03:08to raise the level of this port.
03:11Therefore, we hope that when we talk about success,
03:15we have to understand that success is the success of the CEO,
03:22the success of the workers,
03:24the success of the laundry workers,
03:27and the success of the cooks.
03:29Only then will there be a value of humanity
03:34in the dimension of our development which is called humane.
03:40Terima kasih.
