Ports of Johor reaching this year's 15mil teu target
MERSING: The Ports of Johor are close to achieving their target of handling 15 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) this year and are expected to break into the world’s top 10 container ports in 2026.
The Ports of Johor are on track to meet their target of handling 15 million TEUs this year, and are projected to rank within the world's top 10 container ports by 2026, according to the Ports of Johor. Johor Port Authority (JPA) chairman Dr Rosnan Fathlal made this announcement at the launch ceremony for an artificial reef anchor at the Cargo Jetty.
The initiative is a continuation of JPA's first artificial reef anchor placed at Pulau Tinggi in October 2025. JPA also plans to collaborate with Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) next year to research turtle conservation and monitor the existing artificial reef to assess its impact on increasing species populations in Johor waters.
