POIC Lahad Datu Port offers support to east coast traders
POIC Lahad Datu Port offers itself as an alternative to the congested Tawau Port in Sabah, Malaysia. Datuk Fredian Gan, CEO of POIC Sabah Sdn Bhd, highlighted the port's capacity and commitment to supporting trade, particularly for those affected by recent equipment breakdowns at Tawau Port. The POIC port, operational since 2013, handles container, liquid bulk, and dry bulk cargo. Its public port status since June 2022 allows for regional and international shipping, offering a unique advantage to investors within the POIC Lahad Datu industrial park.
