The project marks a strategic collaboration between SM-WEZ Corporation, Henry The Black Shipyard Sdn Bhd, and Türkiye’s Desan Shipyard, a company with over 47 years of experience in the global maritime industry (https://lnkd.in/gsZd-Mpa).
This development forms part of the broader Straits of Melaka Waterfront Economic Zone (SM-WEZ), a significant initiative spanning 3,642 hectares of reclaimed land across a 33km coastal stretch, aimed at strengthening the region’s position as a key maritime and economic hub.
The development will be guided by Blue Economy principles, ensuring that economic growth is pursued in tandem with environmental sustainability.
